The Farm and Household.

~ Way 1s IT ?—We would like to have some one explain to us, says an exchange, why it is that our people, and especially those in the country, are so easy and willing to be cheated and swindled by tramping peddlers and confidénce . men, Almost any smart man can take the most palpable humbug; and one that has been exposed time and again, and go through the country and catch “suckers” in abundance. The general intelligence and honesty of the farmers of our county is noted at home and abroad, and yet swindlers and conficence men flourish and grow fat here. Men with patents, and peddlers, always reap a rich harvest. Will men uever learn that they cannot buy a dollar’s worth of goods for less than a dollar? We warn our readers year after year against a certain class of swindlers, and yet year after year this same class of men “do” .a number of our citizens. We would

again say, do n’t buy an article until you are sure you are getting the worth of your money; don’t sign a paper until yon clearly understand what you are signing; don’t give any obligation until ypu first have value.receivied; beware of men who offer two dollar’s worth of goods for- one dollar; don’t let your cupidity get the better of your judgment.

CLEANING SEED FOR SOWING AND , * MARKET, . The idea that certain of the foul seed in wheat, as chess for instance, is produced by degeneration in the changing of one variety into another, may easily be settled by the employment of a good fan in'.cleaning grain. If absolutely clean seed be sown in soil certainly known to be free from other seeds, the product will be'like the seed sown. One of the great difficulties is that the soil is constantly filled with the seeds of weeds, brought and retained there by various natural agencies; some of them,like persistent chess, and other seeds of persistent vitality, remaining for a long time in the soil until called into growth by favorable circumstances. ' :

We will give a single instance to illustrate the point: The farmer cleans his seed thoroughly, perhaps goes to the trouble to .pick it over, and sows it, and, notwithstanding this care, finds the crop, the seed of which he thought he had so carefully gone over, is filled with foul weeds. The chaff, or tailings, from the fanning mill had been thrown into the barnyard to be mixed with the manure, and has ‘been carted on the land and perhaps ploweddeeply under, to remain, a portion of it, in the soil for years, perhaps, before it germinates. Or birds may have eaten the seeds and a portion, undigested, has been scattered upon the soil.” These are but'two of the more common ways in which foul seeds are disseminated, but they are striking enough to ac‘count for their spread, \s a rule, those farmers. who are the most careful in cleaning their seed -ains, and the most thorough in their ultivation, have the fewest weeds to contend with; and such are the most fully compensated in the end for their pains, One of the most prolific sources of the spread of weeds is sowing directly from the threshing machine, for however well these machines may clean the grain for market purposes, and the better class of them do it admirably, still there is no power machine that will clean the seed in so thorough a’ manner as to fit it for sowing. This, however, may be accomplished by ‘careful cleaning with the more modern fans, having sieves adapted to the various sizes and shapes of seeds -and perfectly controlled by. the blast given. With the use of these we have often secured a large advance gz‘ér the ‘ordinary market price, on count of the seed being perfectly clean. ;

Two of the most difficult seeds to separate from grain are cockle and chess, and to .do so thoroughly it is ~necéssary to have proper sieves for “separating these from the good grain, ‘since the specific gravity of these seeds is very nearly that of barley, rye and wheat. In the case of chess, the. pe~culiar form of the seed, being long, like wheat and rye, renders it especially difficult of separation. But, with the-niodern fans, but little difficulty will be experienced in their separation, and the value of the seed will be thereby much enhanced.— Western Rurul.

TIE UP THE GRAPE VINES. M. B. Bateham writes to the @hio Farmer: . “I notice that grape v, nes in gardens and small vinyards, which were Kkilled to the ground by the past winter but have made vigorous shoots from below, have been entirely neglected this summer, and the young shoots are trailing on the .groun among the weeds. The owners seemingly need to be told that these shoots must be tied up on stakes or trellises, if any fruit is to be expected from them next year; for if allowed to.remain on the ground in the shade of weeds, the young wood will not ripen 80 as to bear fruit, or withstand 'the cold of next winter. It is well also to pull out part of the ‘shoots, where quite numerous, only leaving four or flve to a strong vine, and three or four to a weaker one.” !

- LOW VS, HIGH FRUIT TREES, An Illinois fruit grower, who has 12,000 apple and 6,000 pear trees, finds that those with low heads and of the same varieties show at least two-thirds more fruit, as large, or larger, and as high colored as those with high tops. To test the matter, he cut off in certain rows all the limbs from. four to six feet from the ground, and in others encouraged the limbs to start ¢lose to the surface, and in the latter case they were neither thinned nor pruneg,' except occasionally to top a lusty Shoot in order to preserve a symmetrical appearance or an evenly balancedhead ; and the above is the result.

Corn grows so rapidly in McLean county, Illinois, that ladders have been discarded. Whern a man wants to get on the top of h?g house he plants a grain of corn, sits over it and in a few minutes is raised high enough to step off on the roof. : : Every time a temperance marn gets away with twenty-four loaves of bread, he takes in as much alcohol as a bottle of port wine contains, - IT 18 aremarkable fact that although common sheep delight in verdant ~ fields, religious flocks are not anxious for green pastors, e Bi B - Decision as to Lay-Over Tickets. The Supreme Court of Illinois. has decided that where there is a contract to carry a passenger, by a railroad company, to a certain point it is entire, and in the absence of any agreement to lay over and use the same, the passenger doing so forfeits his ticket. In. the case in point the passenger had taken a “lay-over” ticket, %ood for 80 days, and attempted to use it after the time had ed and was put off of the cars, and sued for damages, The ‘case on the Wzmwd down by the court was decided against him.

Abont Dunning. ' The plans adopted by people for the collectiog% debts witl};out?ecourse to law, are as various in their character as the minds of men. The laws of different countries, in remote and modern times, also widely differed,in the penalties imposed upon the impecunious or fraudulent debtor, The Hebrew could be put into slavery to satisfy the claim of the creditor. We apprehend that under such a stringent law, no ingenious mode of dunn‘mg! was resorted to, for the decided advantage was with 'the creditor. In later times, and amongst other peoples, if our memory serves us, the persistent and habitual owing of debts, was class“ed as a felony, the same as theft, and punished with death. Later, and in our own country, under the “Blue Laws” of Connecticut, imprisonment for debt was resorted to, and woe betide the poor, though he might have been honest, debtor. who was unable to liquidate “that little bill” of the persistent creditor. In time’these oppressive and unjust laws gave place 'to others less exacting and more humane, until now in our own country, ' the debter is placed in a position to | dictate terms to his ereditor; in many

cases he steers unscathed by the breakers created by his own dishonesty, or ‘improvidence, or misfortunes, and the creditor is.left, empty-handed, to muse on the mistaken humanity of the legislator in crea%ing a law for the sole protection of the debtor. And this brings us to our subject. In the uncertainty of legal help to aid them, the creditor resorts to a ruse for the collection of his debt, which is deep or superficial forceful or mild, just as the case is desperate or easy, and as the mind of the creditor is deep in tricks not always vain, or honest and trustful. The Quaker gentleman, who was not altogether emancipated from the ways of the sons of Belial, hit npon a ‘Thappy expedient to induce a slow-time debtor to accelerate his financial speed, when he advertised in a public print, under the hea% of “Personal” thus:— «To A. B——lf thee will call at No. 7——street, thee will hear something to advantage,” When A. B. called, and was ushered into the presence of the godly man, who raised a club over his head, and gave him the alternative of paying the debt, or being smote with the “billet of wood,” he understood the phraseology of the “personal,” and acknowlédged that the payment of his debt was an “advantage”

—particularly to the Quaker. Another business man of the goodly city of Penn unconsciously stumbled upon a plan, which was successful, after all his deep laid schemes and artful dodges had been employed in vain upon a. non-paying customer of the house.— For about the dozenth time, he direct- | ed his book-keeper to write to Mr. Smith for the amount of his bill.— “What shall I say?” asked the clerk. The merchant, disgusted and vexed with the “deferred payment,” answered shortly as he left the office, “Something' or nothing, and that d—-d quick.” 'The letter. was written, and the return post brought the money, and the elated merchant was anxious to know what the clerk had written which had acted so favorably upon the debtor. “Just what you told me to, write — ‘Something or nothing and that d—d quick,” replied.the clerk. It requires .a great deal of tact to be a successful dun, and the greater knowledge one has of human nature, and its multiform phases in different cases, the greater will be his measure of success in this peculiar field. The same ‘process cannot be used indiscriminately to force money from the pockets of easy-going debtors. The plans must be adapted to the individual, and -it will be found that they must assume as.many shat)es, as do the faces and characters of the great army of the Dunned. Very few men, even amongst those who are in business, are successful collectors, because they lack the peculiar tactinecessary, and are deficient in knowledge of human nature.. But occassionally the best collectors' fail to accomplish their mission, and only succeed upon the adoption of some artful, or half art and half forceful plan, like the Quaker’s, or unconsciously stumble on something, which in sheer desperation is seized upon, like that o% ‘the profane mecrchant above alluded to. The general qualifications necéssary for the successful collector is brass, zeal and energy, to which add tact—an indefinable quality that directs the right word or act under -all the different circumstances of business intercourse of thé dunning order. Find a man that can catalogue these qualities in his person, and to the- extensive business man, he is worth rather more than his weight in ‘wild-cat money—yea, even in 14 karat greenbacks. All men, whether in extensive or limited business, have their experience in dunning, and there are very few of them who have not lain awake o'nights concocting plans to | yank that bill out of John Smith. All of our readers know how vexatious this dunning business-is, especially when the de’bgs' are small, ranging from 75cts, to a few dollars,—say something like'the bills due a country printing office, as the Democrat, for instance, and knowing so, if they are in the position of debtor, their first duty.is tosave their friends thetrouble and-toil of dunning, by coming up pr(:antly and settling with the eaptain.—Columbus (Ind.) Democrat.

A Conductor to be Trusted. One day, before Cornelius Vanderbilt obtained possession of the Hudson River Railway, he was traveling, it is said, from here to Albany, and, considering himself a privileged character, went into a baggdge car to smoke. He had been enjoying his cigar but two or three minutes when the conductor came along, and informed him politely that he must not smoke there. Vanderbilt said it wouldn’t make any difference—that it was 'all right, ete.; but the conductor was of a different: opinion—declaring that it was contrary to the rules of this road. ' , ;

“You don’t know me,” said the smoker. “My name is Vanderbilt; I am sometimes called Commodore. .I generally do about as I please.” “I don’t know, nor do I care who you are, Mr. Vanderbilt. I intend to obey the rules. If you were ten times a Commodore, I could not permit you to smoke here; and you must go elsewhere to finish your cigar.” The loyalty to duty displayed by the conductor pleased the ancient Cornelius and he went out, though not before he had said to the eonductor: You are the right kind of man for your place. You don’t respect persons. I think of buying this road, and if I do, you can stay on it as long as you like. . ) Vanderbilt did buy the ’road) and retained the conductor. He frequently remarked that that man could be trusted ; that he was never mistaken in judging of character; and that he knew, from the first, that the conductor was sound. ST The conductor staid on the road for five years, and'in that time, as the story goes, stole himself into a pecu‘niary independence. : So much for Vanderbilt’s knowledge of character. Evidently, the conductor knew Vanderbilt better than Vanderbilt knew the conductor.—Chicago Tribune. : _ .

Money Lost by Endorsing. - | ‘When I became twenty-one, says a | writer in the Albany, (N. Y.,) Country Gentleman, my father began occasionally to divide around among his children a nice little sum to each, always accompanying the gift with the assurance that if we even endorsed for others, or in any way became res‘ponsible for their short ‘comings, it ‘was the last money we should ever get from him. - This condition during his life was of great value to me, and since then we have been so accustomed to view the invitation of a friend to endorse for him in its true light, that my refusal rarely fails to be - properly received. : . A My neighbor is in active business, and I am only a farmer out of debt, with a little at interest, bringing up and edueating a family of children.— He comes to me, holding out a note, large for me to sign, saying—'“l wish you would just write your name on the back of this; I need the money very much—it will be a great accommodation to me, and you will

only have to write your name.” My answer is—“My friend, do you really understand what my position would be before the law if I were to do this? I-should instantly proclaim that from a state of complete independence, and without the slightest reason for a similar favor from you, and for no consideration whatever, except friendship, I have agreed to take upon myself the risk of your business, with the difference against me, that if you lose I lose, and if you gain Idonot. I share in your losses and not in your profits. Now if this is true, ought I not first to ask the consent of my wife ? Her interest in the risk is the same as mine—her judgment is just as good, and her friendship for you is the same. But not only. this; I should affirm before the public that you are responsible, when I really know nothing of your circumstances, and in so far help you to deceive others. I give you a false credit. In short, I should do that which no honest man, true to himself and to ‘his family, can do and be blameless. Will any right minded, real friend, with this view of the case, ‘ask.of me such a possible sacrifice ?”

Got Him There. An old-joker, who was never known to yield the palm to any antagonist in telling knotty yarns, was put to trumps at hearing atraveler state that he once saw a brick house placed upon runners and drawn up a hill to a more favorable location, some half a mile distant. : ! “What do you think of that, Uncle Ethiel ?” said the by standers. “Oh, fudge!” said the old man; “I once saw a two-story stone house, down East, drawn by oxen three miles!” ; A dead silence ensued; the old man evidently had the worst of it, and he saw it. Gathering all his' energies he bit off a huge piece of pig-tail by the way of gaining time for thought. “They drawed the .stone house, said the old man, ejecting a quantity- of tobacco juice towards the fire-place; “but that warn’t, the worst of the job; for, after they'd done that they went back and .drawed the cellar!” The stranger gave in. . Our wheat crop is now -safely harvested, and is a very fair one; hardly an average, but very fdir, and the _quality is good. Corn is looking well, ' although much of it was blown down by the late severe winds it has raised up again _uninj}u‘ed.—Plymouth Democrat. : .
