For months past the wool has been selling in New York at 00 per pound

It is an experiment with Mr. Wallace, but it is one worthy the attention of all

The practical eye of the husbandman should be the best barometer. Close and

accurate observation would enable him

These periods usually last from four to seven weeks. In a dry time thc sky will

There may be a storm almost continually for more than a week, but this seldom oc

curs. Having observed these seven ('.ay

periods in storms, wo have applied it prac

tically thus: immediately on the eess

tion of the storm cut thc grass or grain

and secure it before tho next storm. Knowing when it is likely to come have

no grain or grass down to bo injured by

it.

We havejsueceeded by this rule through

many seasons of catching weather to gath

er our grass and grain with very little in-

j.ury. while others, not observing it, had

their hay bleached and their grain grown,

Buffering much loss. This can now be

more easily done since the introduction

of mowing machines, horse ralfoa and forks, enabling the fiirmer to cut and se

cure eight to ten acres per nay with a

few hands. (Ireat earo should be used

that hay does not get wet avoid even

the dew. Jf not put in cock, lot it be

raked into winraws. Crass should be exposed to tho sun but three or four hours,

and then, if too green, cured in cock.

More hay is injured by]too much than too

little curing in the sun. Hay will bear

to be put into the mow with some sap.

lidusyj at night currents of air injure

the hay in mow. It comes out better

Phillip of Orleans—General Sheridan sc-.'nllcd—is to be seen dashing about generally, at all places and at all hours. He is vcYy regular, however, in his office duties. At nine o'clock lie has breakfasted, and his elegent coupe stands before thc confiscated magnificent mansion, corner of Colil.scum Place and Felicity road, now occupied by Phillip, and before whose portals pnees a dragoon sentry with, drawn saber. Phillip of Orleans, generally accompanied by one of his aids, then stops into his coupc, and a picasant ride of mile brings him to his office nt (lis military headquarters, earner of Camp street and La Fayette squure Hero Phillip attends to and dispatches the local and State, civil and military affairs of Louisiana and Texas. A bristling bayonet guards either door of entrance, and any quantity of mounted "or derlies" are within call to aarry dispatch-" and orders. Report from various quarters, of a public and private nature, are examined, complaints and ehargds are listened to, and the office business generally summarly dealt with and dispatched. 'V'p '?r.f
