INDIAN A.
Hehdbicks Co., July 27th.—Wheat nearly
all thrashed and has proven to be very good.
The oat crop is excellent. Horses are selling
at from $90, to $110. "Price for cattle rising.
Hog trade very doll. Farmers haye commenced ploughing for wheat.      A. B. CorFMAu.
Ks-ox Co., July 27th.—Times dull in consequence of the strike. Great deal of wheat lying along the railroad for shipment, some In
cars. Every body is wanting to ship for fear
the prices of wheat will decline. Old corn
scarce. Season rather wet for a good com
crop. A. N. Halstead.
Mabtih Co., July 25th.—Having seen nothing in the Fabmeb from these parts, I send
you a card to let you know we are alive and
kicking. Wheat is good and stacked in good
condition. Oats good; corn looks well on rolling ground; flat land not so well. Farm hands
get from twelve to fifteen dollars per month.
Hog cholera plentiful. Long live the Fabmkb.
Joan Milks.
Flotd Co , July 24th.—Farmers' barns look
like a boy's pocket in June apple time, and the
boys can go to the circus again. The voice of
the Brahma cock sounds much more musical
than it did when we got but tight to twelve
bushels of wheat per acre. The threshing
man has a smile on his face as broad as a Quaker's hatrim. I think he will get a top buggy

Frank Ott sells us the bone and we make the

Lawbeh-ck Co., July 24th.—Harvest is over
in this county and the yield is good in everything except fruits. The click of the threshing machine is heard throughout the land, and
the people feel confident of a least enough to
eat for another year or eo. Your Harrison
county correspondent desires information on
the tadpole malady. They died here some
three years ago, same as now at Lanesville,
and we came to the conclusion after careful
investigation, that they died for want of
breath. J. T. B.
Gbabt Co., July 27th.—"Wheat good; all
thrashed and stacked. Oats flax and grass,
never better. Wheat worth $1,00 since the
strike; oats 20 cents; offering one dollar for flax
seed; hay $5,00 per ton. Com promises well
except on low unditched lands. Large crop
of potatoes. Light average crop of hogs; not
much hog cholera except in the north-east corner of Liberty township where it is alarming.

$4, to $4,50. Apples scarce, peaches none.
General health good. N. Habbis.

Wayne Co., July 23d.—I have read in your
paper news from nearly all parts of the country, but have not often seen any from this part.
I think the Indiaha Fabmkb does more for the
welfare of the farmers than any other paper
in the State. For through it .they can hear
from all parts of this and adjoining States, and
consult one another on different topics. Crops
are generally good here. Wheat will average
about 18 bushels per acre. Oats and flax are
better than they have been for several years
past. Corn will be a fair crop, but not so good
as last year. There will be a general crop • of
large frnit here, bnt every thing else promises
well and farmers are cheerful.   The temper-

C. Comstock. ■

Hillsdale Co , July 28th.—The Clawson
wheat is mostly grown here, and the grain is
very good this season. Some fields will yield
from twenty to twenty-five bushels per acre.
Though in a gocd many instances the insects
have damaged it considerably. Other crops
look well. A. YD. R.

Butleb Co., July 26th.—Wheat rusted here
and was nearer a failure than for years. Corn
excellent. B. 0.
Osage Co., July 28th.—We have little or no
wheat, as the insects ruined it. Corn will be
a big crop.   Oats are also very good.

QUERY AND ANSWER.
Oar Q. and A. Departm***.
We are glad to see this important department of our paper filling up of late. It can
be made of great benefit if our readers will
make use of it Only a cent is required to ask
a question, the answer to which may be worth
many dollars.—[Eds.
FISH culttjbb.
Will some of the many readers of the Fabmeb please tell me how and what to feed fish T
Also what kind of trees are best to set ont for
shade about a flsh pond ? W. M. F.

SCHOOL ECB1P ABD LAND WABRANTS.
Will you please be so kind as to tdve me information on the following: First, What can
Indiana school scrip or land warrants be
bought for per acre? Second, Can a person
enter Government land any place in the United States with these warrants or scrip 7 Please
give me information on the above through the
columns of the Fabmeb, and oblige a reader
W. 8. '
We cannot learn of any school scrip for sale
in this city. Land warrants good in any State
or territory where there are unoccupied lands,
can be bought for 75 to 80 cents per acre. If
our correspondent has school scrip and
wishes to invest in land, he had best exchange
the scrip for warrants.—[Eds .
; FULTZ WHEAT.
7b the Editors Indiana Farmer:
I have raised the Fultz wheat for five years
and I have never as yet seen any midge in it,
while other varieties on the same farm were
injured considerably. The Fultz has proved
to be the best wheat for this locality that we
have had for years. I have never raised less
than 20 bushels per acre of it, and have raised
aa high as 35 bushels per acre. I have 50 acres
(my whole crop) this year, its quality this year
is unusually fine. Corn in this, St. Joe valley,
is backward. Potatoes abundant. Ploughing
for wheat is the order of the day.

7b the Ediiors Indiana Parmer:
Has an Englishman who is of age and not
naturalized, and 2} years in the 20's, any right
to work the roads, pay the poll tax, as it is
called? There is a difference of opinion concerning it around here. An answer in your
next would oblige A Subscbibeb.
Your non-naturalized English bom citizen
is under the protection of the TT. S. law, and is
as much bound to pay poll tax or work the
roads, as any other citizen. Naturalization
would give him the right to vote or hold office-if elected, which he cannot do at present.—[Eds.
BAGWOBT.
W. H. B., this county, has handed us a weed
that he finds in his meadow. It is new to him
and to us. Our young botanical friend sends
the following in regard to it:
"The name of the plant you gave me is Sen-
ecio Aureus; Golden Ragwort or Squaw-weed.
It grows wild, chiefly in low, wet places. Is
abont three feet high. Corolla is strap-shaped
and yellow. The disk, or central part of the
flower, is dark brown. The leaves vary in
shape, and the stalk is slender and hairy.
K. G.
We showed one of the flowers, with corolla
stripped off, to a tailor and he pronounced it
a velvet vest button on first inspection. It certainly resembles one very closely. The weed
ls useless entirely, and a' strong grower. It
should be eradicated before it spreads over the
farm.—[Eds. .
i split HOOF.
; Will some of the readers ofthe Fabmeb give
a cure for a horse having a split hoof. Whenever the hoof begins to heal it turns in and
penetrates the flesh, thereby rendering the
horse useless. Any Information for the unfortunate animal will be very acceptable.
W.E.N.
The ailment is something like what Veterinary surgeons call the sand-crack. To cure
this disease, "Stonehenge," in his work on the
horse says: "the foot must be rested, or at least
that portion of it where the crack occurs,
which in the fore fool may be effected by the
nse of the bar-shoe, throwing the pressure entirely on the frog, and taking care that the
crust behind the crack is not in contact with
the shoe." Dr. Navin may have something to
say on the subject in our next.

7b (he Editors Indiana Ibrmer:
I have .i hog that has the blind staggers.
His neck is stiff, and he goes around on a
small piece of ground. He eats hearty .as a
well hog, but cannot find his feed unless it is
placed near his nose. He seems to be blind,
but his sense of smelling is as good as it ever
Was.   What must I do for him ?
A Fasmeb.
For this disease Coburn, in his Swine Husbandry, recommends the following treatment.
Give, at once, a teaspoonful of calomel; cut
a slit in the skin on the head above the eyes
clear to the skull. In this cut put salt and
pepper to get up a counter-irritation. If this
does not succeed, make a liniment as follows:
take of spirits turpentine, capsicum and aqua
ammonium, each one ounce, add half an ounce
tincture of arnica and one-quarter ounce
chloroform, place in a vial, shake well and
rub on upper part of the head and betwe en
and around the ears.
We should use the liniment in the first
place and reject the cutting treatment entire-,
ly.—Eds.
