There are forty-eight granges in Bradford /•ewurfy, Penn. . Butter made in September and October * 'fe the best for winter use. l " National grange meets in Louisville Oft the 17th of November next. Offaere are said to be seventy thousand connected with the Order of Pat- Husbandry. In the amended Constitution of the Na tional grange, males, as well as females, arc eligible to meuibership at the age of six teen. The State grange of Mississippi are earn estly endeavoring to establish a college for ths# benefit of Patrons, to be exclusively under their control. MfWhe farmers of Bcott county, lowa, an ‘Tittunce that they will market one million bushels of onions this year. These will bring them about $600,000. The Wisconsin ! granges have already es tablished forty-one co-operative associations for selling goods and manufacturing, and insufanee oom panics. A Maine farmer says his experience has convinced him that ten good merino sheep can be kept on the same feed that would > keep one cow—and are more profitable. The way to make the Grange more uso ful is to put more stress on the social and intellectual features contemplated. Finan cial benefits must follow in the wake of improvements. It is calculated that there are ten thou sand horses suffering in some degree from colds and sore throats at the present time fa New York, the symptoms being precise ly those manifested when the epizootic first i fchoWed itself. The leading feature of the present attack is a constant hacking and coughing, with sore throat and a slight running of the nostrils. SPECItyC FOB THE CUT-WORM. Spirits of turpentine poured upon reed corn before planting, and thoroughly mixed 4>y stirring, so that all the seeds shall be im ■ pregnated with it, is a specific for the ter •‘flble ravages of the cut-worm. Put one ’ quart of turpentine to a bushel of corn, in stat which is sufficient, and 5 porn comes up two or three days quicker ‘■’When thus treated. Beside the scent of the turpentine, Which can be detected for sev eral weeks' after the planting, aids much in AtMiplng ctows at a distance. I,a Jiva I :d’V 00»N CULTURE IN ENGLAND. English agricultural journals contain nu merous directions about the culture of 0 fern—a new crop in that country. Some •arly-ripcning variqtips have been found yrhicb, it is believed, will give a crop. At W events, there need be uo difficulty in •Securing corn of the. eaily sweet varieties -far use while green. One important discov 3gr*or English friends have made; that Is, |o bill (he corn, but keep the ground as vjmpriy level as possible. The only effect ot I'Mllteg in the damp, cool climate ot En gland is to mulch the roots, keeping them ■till cooler and delaying ripening. Even text hdt, dry summers ‘corn docs not j/wXni earth drawn around the stem. If it •bhus to dio good, it is only because it ne rpMarily loowms the soil, allowing the roots ’fc» spread Udler. Corn needs as tropical M it can get anywhere, and would < generally tn benefited by drawing tire earth •way from tire plants rather than to them. (Rural New Yofkcr. AjfcOJVN CROP WITHOUT RAIN. A correspondent of the Fanner's Vindi cator says he last year, raised eighty bushels of coni IO the were with but one rain, which fell on lire Isiii ot June. He tells <ifeW it done, RS follows: “I laid my •Town three and a half feet apart, threw out with a turning plow, ran a deep furrow •with a bull •tongue in the water furrow, put sixty bushels of cotton seed in the bull loggue threw four furrows with the turn plow, reversing '.he bed, pl aited my earn very sImjUoW on the top of the ridge, and cultivated slm’tow with short •fcbltou shovel Ule firisX two plowings. Laid .hy.with a turning plow, running shallow •rarest the com, deeper in the middle of tHs-hma. I then took a long bull-tongue •ari &übsAlied by Tunning two furrows in ‘lb© middle of Ihe rows, leaving a small, kt*M bed eight or ten inches deep. I tried •■fhMedrtng oR-d>ff<rcnt pieces nt land, both apd cotton, aipl 1 found* In gA’.bCr log the cn>p, a difference of four hundred pounds Os cotton jwr acre in favor of the fS PUOFt TABLE. Tin Is st way is to look favts squarvlv in TNh is bub of them. F r farm ing d«^s not <»aj ’ We can not '.•./.ateour- | *c|rv,j. we wou I IW work in eompeli tion with the world. Rude antiquated methods, mere plodding, unskillful labor, worn out unfertilized soils will not serve us against science, skill, labor-saving imple ments, and heavy manuring. On fertile, virgin sods, the old, Hide wasteful system may, for a while, give the farmer a living, by robbing posterity, but in all the older parts of the country we have got beyond that. If we cannot manure our lands, sdopt the best and economical methods of work ing them, train and skillfully direct our la bor and use, wherever practicable, improved labor-saving implements, we shall go under in “the struggle for life.” Five bushels of corn to the acre, or one third or one-fourth of a bale of cotton is not a lemunerative crop, at any price for our products that we are likely to get. If we cannot do better, wc may as well “lay down the shovel and the hoe” at once. It is the same elsewhere. In New England, in New York, in Pennsylvania, and even in the great fortile West, there is the same com plaint,—“farming don’t pay.” But good farming does “pay” there, and it “pays” still better here. Make a bale of cotton to the aero—a great deal better than that can be done —and from twenty-five to forty bushels of corn—which is setting the figures very low, again—and other crops in pro portion, aud farming will no longer be un remunerative. —[Rural Carolinian. THE SHORT-HORN MANIA. It is about sixty years since “the short horn”—or as he is often called by disbeliev ers in the enormous prices that be now fetches, the “golden calf”—sprung suddenly it to existence. At the commencement of the present century there lived on the edge of the county of Durham, in England, two remarkable brothers, who, by slow’ and un noticed steps developed out of the long horned “Tees-water” the perfect specimens of bovine symmetry which now attract the admiration of all cattle breeders in England and America, known as the Durham short horns, and which brings such fabulous price all over the world. It would not be easy to conceive a high er tribute to the memory of Robert and Charles Coilling, the two famous Durham brothers, who were the originators of the short horns, than the fact that, in the third generation after their death, a sale of forty cattle, tracing their descent from theii illus trious bull, Comet, and from his daughter, Young Duchess, should attract cattle-lovers from every corner of the British islands, and also from the continent of Europe, no leas than from the United States and from Australia, yet such an event did take place in August last, when the sale of Lord Dun more’s short horns took place in Stirling. Scotland, and when the enormons price of four thousand five hundred guineas—about $22,500 was paid for one bull, and when the great sum of £26,223 was realized for the forty head of cattle —about $3,275 per head all round. This should teach a valuable lesson to our farmers, and it is this : Be sure that cure bestowed upon the improvement of your cattle will pay; and that intelligence and care on the part of a farmer in attending to his duties will have as great an influence in advancing the reputation of bis country and increasing its wealth as if directed in any other channel. “ Secure the Shadow ere the' Sub stance Fades.” A.

I mean business, when I say that I am compelled to have money. All those who are indebted to the firm of McAfee & Most nrart Übeir accounts and notes at once.

I have now got, and am receiv ing daily, one of the largest and best selected stocks of goods ever exhibited in North Georgia, which I propose to sell very cheap for cash or barter.
