Yours Truly, FaRMER. June 13th, 1883
OF GRADE OR PART-BRED STOCK,
, VALUE The great mass of American farmers do , uot and will not for many years, if ever,
e| , . ‘ se Ps: ”? 5 have pure-bred stock ‘eligible to record” in The increased cost of
;any large nunibers. | such animals will be a sufficient reason for this state of things. The average farmer cannot afford the money necessary to pur- chase a stock of pure-bred horses or cattle. Sheep, swine and poultry cost comparatively small sums, and maltiply so rapidly that in their case there is less difficulty in having a good number of pure-bred animals, if it be desired.
Over and over we have reported the truth that farmers may have animals nearly or quite equal, for all practical purposes, te the technically pure-bred ones, by the con- tinued use of weil-selected- well bred males, and a rigorous selection of the best females produced by the successive crosses. But a great many farmers do not believe this ; at least they fail to so appreciate it as to let it influence their action.
We are not surethat breeders are en- tirely free from fault in this matter. They will do well to have ebject lessons at hand illustrative of the improvement on the “common. stock,” made by one, two, or three crosses of improved stock. A noted importer and breeder ef dranght-horses has recently issued a beautiful illustrated cata- logue. We can imagine a farmer of the unprogressive order looking at the por- traits of fine stallions and mares, and feel- ing or saying, ‘Oh, that is all very nice for vich folks; but what interest have I in these
+ F lhorses!” But he would be a very dull man if the picture of a pony-mare and her naa

The Tichborne Case.
| PROPABLE RELEASE OF THE IMPRISONED CLAIMANT
Mr. Quartermaine East, Mr. Anthony 'Biddaulph (Sir Roger Tichborne’s cotsi: ), and Mr. B. Croft, of Nottingham. have had an interview with the Tichborne Ciaimant in Portsea Convict Prison. The Claimant was in excellent health, but was somewhat dejected in spirits when informed that in }consequences of an informality in the pro- ceedings, delay would follow in the mattcr of the identification of the lunatic Cresswell in Australia, though he was gratified to learn that within the last few days the Gov- ‘ernment had heen ofticially informed that | Charles Orton had identitied Cresswell as |} Arthur Orton. He was also informed that | the recognition was mutual, and on the news ireaching the country it was hoped that the |Claimant’s release would be immediate, | though that could not now take place until | the affidavits had been formally made out |The Claimant complained bitterly of the }system under which he was allowed to jspeak to his friends only once in three jmonths, and that a letter written in the | most formal language on the 12th of May had |been suppressed though addressed to Mr. | East. Mr. Croft then assured the Claimant that his friends in the midlands were as firm es ever in bis cause, and that except by death he had not lost a single adherent during his imprisonment, while a dozen homes were open to him as soon as he came out of prisen. In bidding bis visiters fare- well, the Claimant remarked that should he be liberated on ticket-of-leave on the wscal terms his imprisonment would end. in November next year.
4 ies The Potato Bug.
The 'foronto Globe, 1882, says :—‘It ap- pears from experiment that a heaping tea- spoonful of Paris Green to 12 quarts of water is just as certain todestroy the potato beetle as a large quantity. Bunt one pound of the poison mixed with 100 pounds’ of plaster may be applied by the hand, as it is proved by repeated tests that no bad resulis follow taking it in the bare hand when thus mixed. The plaster is worth to the crop all the labor and expense.”
Miner and Farmer,— A farmer living in a town near by who raisss good potatoes, tells this story on Jaly 3rd :—*T ent pota- toes in thin slices and rolled them in paris green, and put the pieces in old pans, boxes or barks, and set them out in the field among my potatoes, as soon as they can be seen. I keep the pans supplied with this bait and the result is astonishing. Sometimes the slices will bo all eaten up and the bugs will be three or four deep all over the pans. I have this season kept these bag-killers in my field until now, and [ have done nothing else to kill the bugs and | have now no bugs and can find but few eggs. Have practiced this method two years. It works well, it saves time and labor, it kills thousands of them. If every body would practice this method we would soom have less potato bugs. If potato raisers were compelled to put this method in practice both spring and fall, the im- migrants from Colorado would soon be scarce.
The Troy Press *ells of a farmer who tried a new remedy for potato bugs with success. He placed boards all through his crop with slices of old potatoes, At neon he found them covered with bags. These he killed and at night repeated the procers, after this he had liitle trouble. In the spring is the time to kill bugs, as one will breed from 200 to 300 in a season. He thinks it would be weil to dip the slices in Paris green and save the time and trouble of killing them.
Iron vs. Wooden Sailiag Ships in the United States.
The builders of wooden sailing ships must bestir themselves, or else their iron rivals will have the whole field. Although many good judges maintain that the wooden hull is the best and the safest the end, shipowners and underwriters have come to the conclusion that the iron bull is the best and cheapest. As an investment it pays better than the wooden one, and ag an in surance risk, it is considered safer, judging from the length cf time given in the claasi- fications. What few sailing ships the Eng- en have built of late years have been iron. But on this side of the Atlantic, wood has been the materia! used because ships can be built of it much cheaper here than those of iron. The iron ship-building yards on the Delaware, however, are now giving atten tion to iron sailing ships, and now comes Mr. Gorringe of the American ship-building Company, with the statement that his com pany can build an iron clipper ship for about what a wooden one would cost. An iron sailing ship is to be built by the com- pany and a contract is to be made for build- ing an iron schooner, the owner saying that the difference between the bids of the iron ship-builder and the wood ship-build- er was not over one hundred dol lars. This will bring the Delaware rards into active competition with the Maine builders, and unless there is much diffrence in rates, the largest number ‘of orders will certainly be given for the liron vessels, 't is well known that from ithe time a wooden ship goes into coni- | mission her repair expenses or what may be called deterioration begins, bat beyond ‘some paint and oil the iron ship is com- | paratively free for two years at least. This (is gebarring accidents in both cases. Under si@h circumstances, a little increase in first eget still leaves the iron ship comparatively ik better investment than its wooden rival. The course of thé comp: tition which will assuredly arise between the two classes wi:l be watched with much interest, for it will be fraught with great consequence to the fature of our shipping.
