XTOHG INSTKXTION BETTER THAU füllEIGX. A tome writer lor the Wabash IMairulealer discusses the ways of wheat in a way that is worth the attention of Indiana fanners. Many of the&ugsestions are of special value and theentiic.acticle is evidently the fruit of intelligence, tided by experience: It is & well-knwn fact, or at least it is a fact whether well-known or Dt, that in the arly settlement ct this couaUy, when the land was &3W and tiie soil had cot been exbsusted byooatinual cropping, each a thing as "winter- tilling" or "free-zmj out" of wheat was rarely if ever known, and it is known that now this "freezing out is the greatest trouble the wheat grower has to cob lend wl:b. ThLs is not in conjeuenee ol a chance of teasons, lor then, as new, we had "oien winters" with little Know to protect the wheat and March frcezirgs to destroy it, but it is in consequence of the exhaustion of some particular property of the soil by tntinued tillage, which leaves it in condition to be 6erionsly affected by freezing and thus destroying the wheat plant. What wo now need is a remedy for thia, - and it can be found in the use of clover. Not by Bowing it and then pasturing it to the ground, or mowing it and taking away the whole crop and plowing under only the roots; but by plowing under the fall grown crop of clover. Let this be repeated until the soil is so rilled and mixed with the clover stalks that it will cease to be "clammy" ander the operation of freezing and the object will be accomplished. It i3 believed, it this coarse was pursued continually, our wheat crop would be as sure and the yield as large as in former years. The fact is we are asking too much of our land, and the consequence is we get too little. A different manner of cultivation must be adopted on our clay soils or the growing of wheat may as well be abandoned, and it la Important to our farmers that tte growing of wheat as one of rmr staple productions should be continued. Will not some of our farmers make the experiment upon the following plan : Take a ten-acre field of the most worn land, and f)low under a full growth of clover with .ripened seed, sow wheat upon it, and next spring sow clover again, after taking off the wheit crop let it remain until the next year, then plow under the clover again when the seed is ripe. By this operation you will turn up the seed you had turned under before, which will germinate. Sow wheat again, and after this there will be no more trouble, and you may go on raising wheat on the same fluid year after year .definitely, and your ground becoming Letter and better every vear The clover seed yon plow under this year you will plow up next year, and continue a growth of clover as well as wheat. Never use this field as a pasture; never let a hoof o on it except for the purpose of cultivation, and never attempt to raise anything but wheat on thi particular field; let it be considered as the wheat field, and never be used for any other purpose, and you will soon become satisfied of the wisdom of the plan. You will most likely find that you thus pre -vent "freeziug out" and that you can grow wheat on the same ground very year and greatly Increase the production per acre. If your ground is thoroughly nnderdrained and subso'.led, it will be all the better, and in many places this will be absolutely necessary to secure the desired results, a word about seed wheat. Sow no wheat but such in is grown on randy soils, even il you have to go fifty miles to obtain it. Do this every year. Do not think the wheat of your own raising is good enough. Wheat grown on clay soils should never be sorn on clay soils again, it will arely deteriorate both In quantity and quality. This is not theory, merely, but has been proven by practice. The writer has knowledge of two experiments in this direction with the same or similar results. In one instance the product from seed grown on sandy soil was at least three times as large as the product from seed growu on clay, and greatly superior in quality. The econd years product from the seed of the first year's crop was diminished nearly one half in quantity and was inferior in quality. The third year's crop could hardly e distinguished either in quantity orquality from the wheat ordinarily grown on clay oils; the other Instance occurred In this county, and although the difference was not

s- great as in the otber case yet it was sufficiently marked to Rive evidence of the great importance of obtaining seed grown on sandy soils. There is one thought in connection with seed wheat omitted, it is this: Sow none but clean wheat; let there be no foreign seeds, such as cheat or cockle. II there is ever so little of this, it will increase and the ground become "foul," and will become more and more so from year to year. Farmers sometimes aay, 'My wheat is tolerably clean and I will sow it." This is not so bad when the field is cultivated this year in wheat and next year in corn, for the corn mitivation destrovn these pernicious seeds;

but when you propose to grow wheat ou the same ground for a series of years as abov, proposed, tolerably clean seed will not do, It must be clean or the experiment will fail. TOBACCO. MORE OP TIIE CROP. Twenty-four counties of Virginia, which in 1S70 averaged l.OOO.OOK) pounds each, and together produced about wo-thiitd of the crop, indicate a crp In larger by 30 per -cent., or .000,000 in the entire state. Ten -counties in North Carolina, w hick -prod aced 8,66948 pounds ot the total 11,150,087 in 157, make returns wh:h aggregate very nearly the same in 1873. The quality averages verv well with that of former crops; sow a little better, two Is-elow verage. In SttTTy about oue-tenth is very fine, "perhaps saline as any raised to the 'Uciited States, soil and climate being so we'll adapted." Caswell, long noted for its fin-e, yellow to bncco, and for prodding more than any ether county m North Carolin.-!, has a small crop, only 2",000,000. The official returns of tobacco in Maryland making a total ot l4,7S5,öy pounds 4n 1870, against 38.410,905 pounds in 1WJ. Frve counties, which supply about 60 percent, of thetotal, report an increase of about "20 per oont. on the last census crop. There is no county in South Carolina or Georgia that reports 100.000 pounds, aud but ono in Florida, Gadsden, which produced 118 7W pounds of fhe 157iTj pounds reported in the census of the entire State. It is the Cuba tobacco which is exclusively grown here. Only SQ&Qd pounds are returned as the crop ot lSTss, worth 33 cents per ponnd. The area planted fa stimeted at. eighty acres, vieldinff a little over GflO pounds to the acre When labor wasabundant to clear the richer hummock land, yea) s ago. the average pro duct was 800 rounds. The Southwestern States do not errow tobaeoo as a market crop, Tennessee returned -as the crop of 1869, acordirjcr io the census. 2l.4'i.v.2 pounds Nine counties, which contributed more than two-thirds of tbat quantity, now report about 7 per cent, increase, or 15,820,000 pounds, crown on about 26,000 acres, and worth 6 cents per (pound. Tobacco is not a prominent crop in West Virginia. About 2,000.000 pounds are reported lor ifctti. of which nearly two-thirds were grown in Putnam, Kanawha, Fayette. Cabell, and Mercer, in the order named. Kentucky stands at the head of tobacco-growing states in resnect to quantity. Returns from forty three counties which reported 75,294.305 pounds iu 1S69, of the return of 10j,30o,hü pounds, now Teturn estimate of last year's crop, aggregating 10y,iTt0,47o pounds grown on 150 214 acres, and valued at 6 cents per coiind. These counties represent above 70 per cent, of the production, and if the re mainincr counties have inade a similar in crease, the total for Kentucky would be about one hundred and forty million pounds. Tobacco is not a prominent crop i. Wisconsin, being crown mainly in Rock and IUna oounties. The former, which is credited with 654.508 pounds in 1S69, now returns 2S0O.OOO pounds, grown on 1,400 acres, and worth tour cents, seven mills per pound. In Ohio, Montgomery stands first in production, in the census of 1870, among tobacco counties, returning more than one-fifth of the aggregate quantity in the state. Ten counties, which were cred ited with nearlv two-thirds of the state product, new report more than that aggre gate, or 19,902,2- pounds. The comparison, however, with assessors returns for I860 wouLi not show an advance. The crop of Montgomery iu 1S72 wbs 7.178.543; the estimate for 1873 is the same. Returns from Missouri show an increase ot about thirty five per cent, over those ot the census. GENERAL MARKET REVIEW, WEEKLY REVIEW Or THE INDIANAPOLIS WHOLESALE MARKETS. Monday Evening, April 13. The market for the week past was the best as to transactions this spring. Prices held firm and holders of grain and provisions have had no uneasiness. Settled business activity cannot be looked for until the uncertainty which overhangs the currency question is removed. The belief that the end ot concress' tinkering bad come last week crave an impulse to trade. Now the 'prospect is as doubtful as ever, and country is aeain perplexed. The spring trade in dry goods, groceries, etc., is very fair. Klofb Piicea are well maintained, though but little is doine. Quoted: rancy Drand8.......................... w o Family ................

AN INDIANA. TRAGEDY-

A DEADLY FEUD . TOLLIVERS AND MOODYS OUT OP COURT REVIEW OF THK I!fS F.RSAL ATTEMPT AT WHOLESALE MURDER LEFT TO FIGHT IT OUT AkOSO THEMSELVES. (From an Occasional Correspondent of the Sentinel.) Bedford, Ixd.. April 11, 1S7L The case of the State of Indiana vs. Dr. J. PerkTolIiver, on the charge of arson, ba& Leen on trial during the past week, on change of venue, before Jodge Bicknell. Upon the state closing the testimony tor the prosecution, the court directed the jury to return a verdict of not guilty, as charged in the indictment," and. the defendant was released. Although th;s was a state case it was really Moody vs. Tolliver, Montague va. Capulet. Ihomas Moody furnishing the means for a vigorous prosecution and was the principal witness for the state. It is said time heals all wounds, but the animosity existing between the above highly respectable, and once wealthy, citizens of Lawrence county baa increased with time and is likely to be transmitted fron, sire to son. The Moody family is composed of William, John. Joseph, Thomas, Moody and Mary Tolliver, a sister. Gordon B. J. Park, Joseph I. Tolliver and II. B. Jones comprise the list of sons and sons-in-law of William Tolliver, deceased. William Tolliver, deceased, married into the Moody family, and upon his death, which occurred a short time afterwards, she claimed, and would not relinquish, her legal rights as his widow to one-third of his possessions. It was in appointing an administrator that trouble first began which has resulted in so many encounters and personal collisions. It was shown that the parties were always belligerent, and upon meeting on trains, at hotels and public sales, their hands were upon their revolvers, and only by timely interference was bloodshed prevented. In all their madness there was method, tor each party had both given and received threats to settle the difficulty according to the CODE OF THE F. F. V. The -rime for which the defendants were arrested and one tried and acquitted, and all released, was given in detail in the Sentinel at the time of its occurrence, oa the 24th ot June, 1S71. It was no less than a carelully prepared and a carefully executed plot to exterminate the first named f Miiily at one fell swoop, and attempt to perform the service of cremation while the victims were yet alive. On the night of the 24th day of June, 171, a party of 12 armed desperadoes attacked the dwelling of the Moodys. The doors being open, they entered the house and placed jugs of benzine uuder the beds and in different parts of the house, stealthily retreated and at a given signal threw lighted torpedoes, bursting shells Tilled with Greek fire, 20 penny nails, screws, buckshot and pieces "of iron crashing thronen the windows and inio the open doors. The house having been saturated with inflammable benzine was soon a sheet ot tlauie. They then commenced a simultaneous assault with firearms upon the burning house and -its inmates. The leepers, startled from their slumber so suddenly, burnt aud still burning, were terrified beyond auy power ol description. Some endeavored to extinguish the flames, and one, Thomas Moody, suffocated by the unbreathable stench from the exploding mis.-i!es, rushed out the open door and attracted the fire of the party. He heard distinctly in a voice Le thought he recognized, "There goes the damned son of a b h, now shoot him." Upon climbing the yard fence he was struck . with a bullet; it entered near the spine, and came out on the opposite side, passing entirely through his body. lie managed to get to a neighbor's house and call for assistance. The assailants supposine their WORK OF DEATH and ruination finished, retreated without being recognized, leaving no traces - or clue from whence thev came or whither they had gone, and are to this day, anl probably will be for all time, unknown. The flames were finally subdued, and community was soon aroused and rendering assistance to the sufferers. Suspicion settled upon the Toll! vers. De tectives were employed, and have been lor months endeavoring to ferrett out the guilty parties, and with what success has been stated. All evidence given upon the trial has not been enough to excite a reasonable suspicion. That the screws were found at the factory where . H. B. Jonesworked similar to the ones upon the lioor alter the house was raided, and that screws were found scattered over the floor ol the Tolliver kitchen, on the 25th of June. A written order Irom Tolliver Bros., who were druggists, to a Louisville firm, for 40 gallons of benzine, was introduced, dated April, 171. The court, upon its own motion, instructed the jury to bring in a verdict as before stated, without permitting the defendant to intro duce any testimony at all. .Maior Crordon. or counsel for the defend ant, stated he could show, if permitted, that the defendant was in the company of greyheaded men on the nightof the 24th ot June. and felt abundantly able to erase the least suspicion of their guilt. The five brothers were indicted on five different charges, ar son, assault with Intent, conspiracy, etc. The Honorable D. W. Voorhees, of counsel for the state, entered an KOLL PROS. in some cases, and desired a postponment of the rest until next term, on ac count of the absence of witnesses. Major Gordon replied that his clients were) there ready for trial, and that quite time enough had been given to search for loose screws. The court oeing with the major,. me cases, 14 in all, were dismissed. The state was represented by J. W. Tucker, prosecuting attorney, lion. D. W. Voorhees, Friedly and Isemonger. Fordefendants, Major Jonathan W. Gordon and Wilson dc Riley, There is a rumor that the indefatigable Barnum, initialed P. T., has engaged Captain.
