The Wool Market, 1 The wool market, at present, excites no little interest, ecpecially among farmers who are disposed to pursue the suicidal policy which has so often resulted in heavy losses. Prides are high and stand at & maximum point ; yet there are those of our wcgl-growers who refuse to- learn wisdom Uy the past, and are disposed to hold their clips for higher figures. Ass rule, fgrmers who are willing to sell a} good round prices, come out ahead, while while those who refuse such figures, and hold on for more are quite certain ‘to get less. Obio wool, says an exchange, is now held in Boston at 70@80, cts., with very little offering below 75 cts.,, and with buyers noﬂ‘disposed to go above "60@64 cts., and it is believed that the manufac+ turers are offering all that can be afforded by them, California, according to latest reports, has 9,000,000 Ihs,, which the holders desire to keep over until fall, pros vided they can secure liberal advanees on the same. Eastern buyers have been making a canvass of the western markets, and have decided that purchases cannot be made at the present high rates, the. views of the western holders being too high. The result will doubtless be to produce a slight stagnation of the market ‘;imm,c-f diat\:ély after shearing time, but it is pro—bable that present prices may be obtained throughout the season. An advance cannot reasonably be expected, but a slight decline may occur. i

Corn Cultivation—Wheat Gathering, DRILLING VB. HILLING—ANOTHER vmw.é; In the May, number of the North- West - ern Farmer, in an article on “Drilling vs. Hilling,” the writer, “H.,” asserts that drilled corn is much easier cultivated than corn §Fn the bill, without giving his usual method ot cultivation. ' Itiis hardly sufficient to make an assertidn'against & com. monly received opinion without giving some method by which the reader may be ‘convinced that the assertion is true. | Notwithstandirg “H.'s” aticle on drilling, there are hundieds of practical farnjers who will dispute that drilled corn is the most easily cultivated. My own experience with drilled corn is, that in a dry seasom it is as easily cultivated as corn in. the hill, but in a wet seasqn would prefer to cultivate corn in the hill. Bl - In| cultivating drilled corn, first break the ground well, rolling it down withia field roller as ‘the breuking progresses. Clods mash easier when the ground is finst broken and the soil retains its moisture. -After breaking, harrow thoroughly. In drilling, first run a plow in advance of the drill, making a. plain furrow some three inches in depth, and follow with a oné horse drill, drilling the corn one grain every foot, if the land is stony, and fifteen inches apart 1f the soil is thin. i After drilling tixb corn, harrow the field with & light batrow, (I use the John Thomas harrow) aud. roll, it the land’is in the least cloddy, before the corn is up, or if/the land is fowl with weed seeds. Et will not be necessary to replant unless the seed |is poor or the cut-worms linterferg. After the corn is fairly up and a good stand is secured, if the ground is clean of stalks and trash, use a Thomas harrow, run across the rows; pay but little regard to the corn. If the ground is trashy, use a‘common A harrow, running astride of each row after knocking out the front tooth, ‘then use a five toothed cultivatar, running twice in a row. .Cultivate the corn| twice over in’this way, afterwards using the double shovel, if you do not think the cultivator best. Last year I used the cultivator exclusively on one field with favorable results. " When the corn is small, stir deepand close to the corn, keeping the surface as level ag possible in dry weather. After the corn roots begin to spread through the goil, keep the surface level and thoroughly/ pulverized, stirringg the ground frequently. In a wet season do anything to kill weeds, and my word for it, you will have your hands full if you have a heavy crop of drilled corn, | !

CARE OF WHEAT IN HARVEST. - After having matured .a good crop of wheat save it. Secure the best help, if possible pay liberal prices, and then re - qhire the work to be well done. First, a band should gather up the grain evenly and close, gathering up the straw around. where the sheaf has been delivered by the m'}ehine. Bind the bundle about one third -of|th edistance from the butt of the sheaf, binding the sheaf tightly. Good help will gather up the straws that trail from the ‘machine occasionally between the bundles. Let the binders throw these swaths together, it will aid very much in gathering the sheaves ; let two of the best and most careful men in your employ shock the wheat after the bundles have been gathered in piles of fifteen or sixteen each ; the number of sheaves in a shock should depend upon their size; no more, however, than will dry out xeadil‘should be shocked together, and it is@esirable to have a sufficient number in order that the shock will stand well. Four hands to bind after a reaper will usually be sufficient ; better,. however, {to have three careful ‘handsand to drive sl&w, than to have four and .one a careless slink. . ° , As g rule, -those who are clamorous about a high price and the number of hands that are to follow the machine, you will find it necessary to watch and perbapgs discharge; better go sldw and do well, what is done, than “hog it.” f‘ There are 8o many good reapers of various patterns, that all -have, perhaps, made theigchoice. I would call attention, ,horiever, to the waste of grains in the use of ‘dropper attachments’ to reapers, where the v(v)Keat is short, heavy and stands straight, You will find quite a waste when the grain first strikes the slats after the delivery of the bind—a dozen or more heads falling through the slats so eve Ply distributed over the grouad that we are apt to underestimaté the real loss, A dozen heads lost at every/bind, will ake bushels in a field of corsiderable size. In entering upon the harvest of 1872, let ‘us’ bear in mind tﬂm that “what is | ;;o « : ‘ ;\ all is worth doing well."— Now that sheep are again attracting at. tenton, the sdvoesten for the difsont | breeds are waxiog warm. =When either one confines himgelf to setting !;l:ﬁh ‘3" its of any part ul «", et _ : ] /'d‘ f ally does not overestimate the qualities of

his favorite; but 'w\ben he institutes comparisons with a view to prove that under all circumstances a particular breed is _better than all others, he seems to us to go wide of the trutb, We believe there are few localities in this country, where improved stock of this kind can be raised at all, in which either of the better breeds, in the bands of a thorough’ shepherd, would not for a series of years prove reasonably remuuverative. At the same time, we entertain little doubt that some variety would, under certain conditions of soil, climate, and accessibility to market, prove more profitable than others. e It seems highly probable that both mutton and wool can be grown on the great central plains of .the United States, in open competition with the production of South America, Australia, or elsewhere; and at the same time there 18 no reason to suppose that sheep husbandry in the older States will thus be rendered unprofitable, than that the sheep husbandry of Germany, France, or England will be superccdwd become a thing ot the past from the cause. The incidental ‘benefits of sheep raising to general agriculture are such as to secure the confinuance of that branch of live stock husbandry, and, as soils are more and more heavily taxed in the produztion of annual crops, the de - mand for sheep will be more imperative. The varieties to be grown may besafely left to local conditions, and the individual preference of each shepberd or farmer.— Hxchange. : '

Hints to Housewives. . . To Make HArRD WATER Sorr.—Take orie ounce of fresh lime and stir it well in a bucket of water, then stir all thoroughly in a barrel of ‘water, and as soon as it gettles, the water will be soft and fit for use, as it will drive all impurities to the bottom.” River water, when muddy, is better to drink by this:process. ‘To Kegp Ice.—Mdke a double pocket of strong woolen cloth, no matter how coarse and faded it is. Have a space of two inches or so between the inner and outer pockets, and pack this s}mce as full as possible with feathers. You have no need to use geese feathers; hens’ feathers are just as good. With a pocket thus constructed and kept closely tied at the mouth a few pounds of ice may be kept a week. To DEsTrROY BED Buas.—One ounce of quicksilver and the white of three eggs well mixed by beating, with a knife or spoon, and applied an inch around the knobs, and other infested parts, with a feather or brush; will keep the unwelcome bedfellows away for two or. three years. The greatest difficulty is to.get the two articles to mix, but perseverance will overcome that difficulty. _ ~ Sering CLEANING.—SimpIe salt and water cleans and. prescrves matting more effectually than any other method. L Tepid tea cleans grainéd wood. * Oil cloth should be brightened, aiter washing with soap and water, with skim milk. ’ : Salt and water washing preserves bedsteads from being infested with vermin ; also, mattresses. - : Kerosene oil is the best furniture oil ; it cleanses, adds a fine polish, and preserves {rom the ravages ot insects. * To get rid of moths and roaches from closets and bureau drawers, sprinkle powdered borax over ond around the shelves, and cover with clean paper. .

Platform of the Indiana Democracy. - Resolved, By the Democracy of Indiana, in convention assembled, that the principles of the Cincinnati Liberal Rapublican Convention, taken in connection with the propositions contained in Horace Greeley's letter accepting the nomination of that convention, ‘constitute a platform on which all the elements of opposition to the present_corrupt administration of thefederal government can stand, and which propositions are as follows : 1. All the political rights and franchises which have been acquired through the late convulsions, must and shall be guaranteed, maintained, enjoyed, and respected evermore.

2. All the political rights and franchises which have been’ lost through that convulsion should and must be restored and re established; so that there shall be hence ” forth no presgribed class and no disfranchised caste within the 'limits of ‘our Union, whose long estranged people shall reunite and fraternize upon the broad basis of universal amnesty with impartial suffrage. - ; 3. That, subject to one solemn constitutional obligation to maintain the equal rights of all citizens, our policy should alm at local self-government, and not at centralization ; thas the civil authority should Be supreme over the military ; that the writ of Zabeas corpus should be jealously upheld as the safeguard of personal freedom ; that the individual should enjoy the largest liberty consistent with -public order, and that each State shall be left free to enforce the rights and promote the well-being of its inhabitants by such means as the judgment of the people shall prescribe. 4. That there shall be a real,®and not ‘merely a simulated, reform, in the civil service of the republic, to which end it is indispensable, the chief dispenser of its vast officigl. patronage shall be shielded from tha main temptation to use his power selfishly, by a rule inexorably forbidding and precluding his re election. . —*Resolved, That we regard it as unwise and imprudent to place two tickets innomination for the offices of President and Vice President, or-the representations of these principles as the division of its friends would assure the defeat of both, and it is, therefore, the firm conviction of this convention that the Democratic Con'. - vention to assemble in Baltimore, in July, should adopt the nominees of the Liberal Republican Convention, “instead of making other nominations for the Presidenc y and Vice Presidency of the United States. Resolved, That the delegates‘appointed from this State to the Baltimore Convention be, and they are hereby, instructed’ to vote as a unit upon all questions, in accordance with the opinions of a majority of g%:e delegation. , : ' Resolved, That all drainage and other ' laws by which the owners of property may be divested of their title by arbitrary assessments or summary process should Le carefully guarded, so as to protect the people from undue oppression, and their property from being taken without just compensation and due process of law, and that all laws contravening the principles should be promptly repealed, or modified 80 as to conform thereto.

WuEREAS, The Union soldiers and sailors, by their patriotism and courage in _the great rebellion of 1861, preserved the life of the nation, and made our public domain valuable ; therefore, i : - Resolved, That we demand for each of the'living who were honorably discharged, and for the widows or orphans of the dead, 160 acres of the public lands, not heretofore entered or given away by Con gress to railroad corporations, to: be theirs absolutely, without requiring them. to become actual settlers thereon. Resolved, That justice and equality demand that all soldiers who enlisted in the’ military service of this country during the war of the late rebellion, and who have been honorably discharged there. from, shall bave a bounty granted to them by Congress in progortion to the time they may have served, whether that time shall have been for three months or a longer period. . :

To DesTROY CUT WORMS.—Place small pieces of bosrd, large chips, etc., in close proximity to cabbage and sweet potato plants, &e., all througk the patch, and you can trap the pests by hundreds. The boards must be lifted early -in the morning, and on very warm days again about noon. ‘A little care for a few days will clear these pests out of the garden. One trial will satisfy any person of the merits of this plan, e

i, +She does h;r own work.” I had fully deternfined since ‘the femafe question has sssrmed its present shape to leave these matters of reformation to work out their own salvation, but in passing along the street a short time since, I heard the above remark made in comnection with a lady of rare intelligence and worth, and notwithstandingupwards of forty summers have psssed over my head, I am obliged to confess I was downright angry, and nothing short of a good round lecture’ will enable me to give my opinion of the silly absurdities of the fashionable women of to-day. Does her own work,indeed! You should have seen the supercilious curl of the\-daintry lip and the haughty shrug of those aristocratic shoulders as if she had come in contact with some impure thing, instead of which she had merely=discovered that one of whom no one said aught reproachfully ¢did her own work.” I have no patience with such injustice. In this land of soap boilers and candle makers too, when the most favored of us can only hope to carry the family name untarnished by contact with some plebian ancestor, though a race of a few paltry yrears" at best. Now let us look at this question soberly. What does it mean other than performing deeds necessary to the comfort and happiness of her own family 2 What ‘possible reason is there for a charge of re--proach and disgrace? Her husband toils in his profession to support their family, and why should not she perform her- part as well, in honor and in happiness. Itis this love of indolence, this growing distaste for anything that savors of deprivation on the part of our wives and mothers that is sapping the very foundations of ‘virtuous society. ‘I know the husband is often as much or more to be blamed than she. * He likes to see the faultless dress and .dainty manners unruffied, and if this world' were only a paradisé where no one had iuzlividual daties to perform, and there was no public.interest to be interfered with, by an omission. of them, I should heartily endorse the pleasant scenes too. Bit most of us are foroed to admit that this world is made up largely of stern, hard, realities and unless -we give these prosaic matters a little attention occasionally we are prétty apt to jostle against somebody’s shoulders. I.am ‘just as tired of all this fuss about extravagance in dress and useless expenditures of time, as you or any one else can possibly be, and were it not for the fact that this is a matter from which no'act of legislation, or the most profuse use of the ballét can ever liberateus, I would never venture a word more; ‘but even the most rampant leaders are forced to admit that this reform must rest almost solely with woman herself. Aslong as sheé confines her readings to fashion journals exclusively, it can make mo difference to her that the noblest and wisest of thoughts are being propounded ;qll over the world. I would have our mothers and'those who have the training of our children see this matter in its true -gense and redlize the necessity for a broa-der-more liberal ‘range of * thought and action. T would have them encourage and cultivate a spirit to form an independent opinion and firmness to brave the many foibles that fashion is constantly raising in the way of real advancement. I 'would bave them form a right estimate of the «true dignity of labor,” and realize that ‘they are not mere butterflies, but that each has her own destiny to fulfill.— This is the reform most needed by women to-day, and one fhat would do more by far, to “elevate’” thd sex than all the legislation of a century. i S - OrLp Mrs. TarrT. ‘ % el O P ¥ A LARGE tobth, which weighed two pounds and nine ounces and is well pre‘gerved, was recently found in the bed of Hog Creek near Wanatah. Some two years ago a large bone, evidently the femur of a mastodon, was found at the same place.— It is probable that the entire skeleton of a very large animal of a defunct species might be discovered at that place provided a diligent seavch should be made.—ZLaPorte Argus. : ; '

Cur-worMS in Allen county, says the Ft. Wayne Republican, have entirely destroyed the corn in many places, whole fields. being. devastated by these pests. In some sections, we know of a few farmers who are replanting and t@fowi’ng “‘in the hills a tablespoonful of either salt or wood-ashes. Either of these is said ‘to be an effectual remedy against the ravages of worms.— Those. who have no faith in the remedy ghould by all means try a few rows. - e e :

- A Successrur Epitor.—To fill ‘successfully this position a man must himself be's’ walking encycolopedia. He must be familiar with history, biography agriculture, topography, geography, music and the drama,—and a little of everything else. And then he must have judgment enough to mix all this matter together with sufficient gkill to make it palatable to. the general public.” : s . : el -—— Tuae Lowell Star cautions young men when they find a newspaper on a ball room floor, not to pick it up and wonder where it came from, and ask unnecessary questions concerning the folds ; and adds, that a young man who did that not long since, could not-get another young lady to dance with him 3uring the whole evening. .
