v'.-'.: GOING UP THE FLUME.
The Indiana Midland Will Soon be the Treasured Possession of Our State.
It seems that all Air. Crawford's worry and Hurry has been in vain. He overcame the difficulties with tho Montgomery county strikers only to drag out' a few months precarionB existence for his Midland road and now he sees the whole noble net work slipping into the greedy clutches of our good old 'oinmon wealth, which has never oeon known to Rough up anything it once swallowed, and which once in days gone by evi went so far as to make it unconstitutional for any one to offer a bill in her legislative halls providing for tho payment of a just State debt which had been repudiated, a la Virginia. All this is surely enough to make Mr. Crawford feel mighty learv. Yesterday there set out from Noblesville a gang of grim ccd men armed with hickory clubs and the insignia of oflieo. It was their fell iu.ent to levj on the Midland road and seize it for taxes due tho State. There are thousands of dollars of delinquent taxes due and Mr. Crawford's road will now have to pass into the hands of We, Us .t Company unless he rakes up the axes within the next few days. He can hardly do it .mil it

FARMERS' INSTITUTE.
AN INTEKEST'.NG AND PROFITABLE
MEETING OF PEA0TI0AL FARMERS.
"The Interdependence of Farming and
Other Callings"—"How to Save Corn Fodder"—"The Prejudices Against
Book Farming"—"The Farmers' Reading Oirole"—"The Pleasure
and Possibilities of Rural
Life"—"The Wastage
of tbe Farm."
Monday moring was rainy and gloomy aud tho prospect for Farmers' Institute seemod discouraging in tho extreme. A dozen farmers lingered about tho court room till nearly uoon, and then it was thought advisable to defer all exercises till after dinner. Hence the Mayor's welcome speech and tho response by Mr. Waugh, President of the local institute, wore oinit^d from the programme. But by noon the rain censed and when the hour for the opening of tho afternoon exercises arrived, the largo court room was lilledr and a most interesting and profitable session was held. As Mrs. Meredith, who was to road tho first essay, was not present and would not ar rive until the coming of tho 1:50 train from the east, Hon. .lames A. Mount preceded her with his 'ecturo on "Th Mutual Inter.'ep: lence o' Farming and Other Callings." He spoke for almost an hour and was listened to with the closest attention. The prominent ideas if his address were that farming could be profitable only «hero good markets could be found at hand to take its products. lie showed from statistics that '•and and farm products were always highest when tho largest part of tho population jvero engaged in other pursuits. Tho lawyer, tho doctor, tho merchant and the manufacturer were nil necessary to tho farmer's success. Farmers could not study law without neglecting their farms, and is was cheaper, furthor, when they had business troubles, as all men sometimes would, to hire some one who made the law his profession. So with the physician, the school teacher, and tho minister. Tho farmer could not manufacture his own clothing, and had to depend on those who made manufacturing their business, and it had been demonstrated over and oyer that whore all tho other callings flourished in abundance, there the farmer was most sure to prosper and grow wealthy. Poor land in the vicinity of large cities was worth 8200 per acre, because of the small proportion of farmers as compared with the numler of people engaged other business. He thought our own State has a bright prospect before it for tho farmer because of the rapidity with which it was filling up with industries other than farming. Ho believed the farmer should look with a friendly eye to the planting of every new industry in tho vicinity of his farm, and give it all the encouragement he could.
Several members of the Institute spoke in indorsement of Mr. Mount's lecture, and there was no dissent from auy of his propositions. At 3 o'clock Mrs. Virginia C. Meredith, of Wayne connty, was introduced nnd read a most interesting and edifying paper on "The Value of Com Fodder." We have not tho space to give her paper in full, but if we conld do so, it would be worth many times the price of a year's subscription to Tin: JOUHNAL, to every far mer in tho county. She demonstrated moBt clearly that the farmor who lots his corn stand in the field until it is frost bitten and the blades all blown off, loses from a third to a half of tho produet of his Holds. Sho gave her methods of saving fodder as follows: Her was cut up the last week in August or tho first week in September, and put in vory small shocks, only about thirty-six hills to the shock. Tho corn was Bet nrotind a wooden standard made of a pioca of scantling with cross pins, near tho top. When tho shock was finished nnd securely tied, the pins were pulled out, nnd the standard carried to the next shock, Those small shocks enable tbe corn to dry out and cure rapidly, nnd being cut while the blades were yet green, they would not fall off from handling. All had observed, she said, that when a limb of a tree was blown off in summer time the leaves would continue to adhere, and no kind of handling would rattle them off. It was the same way with cornblades. After the ears of corn had dried sufficiently to crib, her men shocked it without tearing down the shocks, the shocks being so small every stalk could be reached without difficulty. After the oars were .removed, couple of men, with pitchforks would toss the shocks pcross a hay frame on the wngon, and haul thein to the barn, where they were cut up by steam power and packed in large apartments made for the purpose. She had fed,her fine herds on this corn stover for many years, and always found that it was better than hoy. It was usually eaten up clean. She had not n)jseI,nny ka,y for many years. An acre of fodder would make two tous of feed, and it was worth as two tons of hay, etfy
$14: and this Bum represented the amount wasted when the fodder was suffered to. stand in the field.

paper, she was iiBked many questions about her methods of farming, all of which she readily answered, showing that she 1B a thorough master of her calling. Sho superintends all the ojier ations of her farm, keepB her own accounts, and lives an ideal life on the farm. She is tho picture of good health and good spirits, and a fine example of what on intelligent and enterprising woman can do on a farm.
At the night session J. N. Fullonwider, Esq., of Brown's Valley, read a paper on "The Prejudice Against Book Farming," in which he claimed that t» farmor should avail himself of all knowledge about his business, that the who depended on his own experience alone would gain knowledge at a great cost which ho would gain without cost by tho experience of thoso who had gone before him. He showed that many of tho greatest forward stops in the progress of fanning had been suggested in books and lecturers by those who were not practical farmers. Indiana to-day, was one of tho wealthiest States in the Union because her farmers had rend and profiled by Horace Greeley's noted lecture at the Lafayette State Fair in 1853, on tho subject of tile drainage. Ho argued that no one would depend on a lawyer who had no library and deluded solely on his experience for his knowledge of the law, or on a physician who did not read and keep himself informed about now remedies for diseases. No man could be a perfect farmer without both experimental and book knowledge, and ho though tho prejudice entertained by so many against what is called book knowledgo of farming, was very detrimental to the progress of the profession
of farming. Considerable comment followed tho reading of Mr. Fullenwider's paper, all, however, of a favorable nature, which shows that farmers are rapidly getting rid of the old fogy notion that a farmer can make his way in the world as well without intelligence us with it.
The last thing on the programme of tho evening was charming paper by Mrs. James A. Mount on "Tho Farmers' Reading Circle" in which she tastefully and eloquently urged a higher culture at tho farmers' home. What made the farm so unpleasant for women and the children was the lack of social inter course and opportunities for mental development. She thought the promised Bonding Circle ought to drop farm topics entirely, nnd direct its efforts towards literary nnd social culture, which, sho urged, would give zest to rural life nnd make rural society us attractive as city society. Mrs. Mount's paper was much enjoyed by all, and the discussion which followed generally indorsed hor sentiments.
After the reading and discussion of Mrs. ^fount's paper, the rest of the evening was spent till 10 o'clock in desultory remarks by a large number of persons on several topics that hnd been brought forward during the afternoon and evening. Mrs. Worloy Bjxjko of tho efforts now being made to re. urrect the old township libraries, and ho]ed that this Institute would give its aid and encouragement to this laudable enterprise. Prof. Kritz said the old books in the township libraries wero out of date, were of no value, and that it would be better to gather them together and burn them in a heap, fortlieexpres sion of such an idea he was severely criticized. Mrs. Meredith reminded him that a former professor of Wabash
College had the honor of leing the father of the Township Library System and she thought it strange that such a sentiment as thjit of Prof. Kritz should now emanate from that institution F. M. Dice made quite forcible and eloquent speech in favor of the old town ship libraries, after which the meeting adjourned in the utmost good feeling, till 10 o'clock Tuesday morning.
