Maoos Co.—The winter thus far has been much more severe here than Is usually experienced. The weather has been mostly dry and moderately cold. Two cold snaps sent the mercury down to 3' or 4', the severe cold lasting, however, but ii few hours. The wet weatherof July and August injured the fall crops, especially potatoes, which seldom fail to make a large yield. Even hog cholera penetrates the mountains sometimes, nnd last season the razor-back wood rangers were slaughtered extensively by the disease, making fresh pork scam* at 12 and 15c. Oood beef aud mutton 5 aud tx*, the customorj- price. K. K. E. PENNSYLVANIA. . Pekry Co.—We are now having several days of rainy weather, which was greatly needed: farmers nnd all people alike were thirsty for water, as streams and springs alike formed an ley bridge over them. Many farmers hauled their water from a distance, while others drank hard elder Instead. Ice hauling was brisk for a week or more, but now houses are filled In this section with tha clear crystal. Epidemics, such as diphtheria, and pneumo-, nla prevail in mnny places. C. I„ Stkele. '> ILLINOIS. FlKR Co.-Land Is worth fro-ji S3I to *MI. Farm hands receive from tU to fijper month.

Our staples are wheat, corn aud barley, the first two of which produced excellent crops this year; barley, however, was almost entirely destroyed by tbe barley worm.

The following statistics of the churches of Indiana for 1882, have been collected by the State Bureau of Statistics: Number of church organizations 4.93 Number of chorea edifices —- 4,4ti Total membership...- 444,458 Members admitted during year 43,839 Value church edifices, lota and other property *,I0,82.*>,555 Minister's salary for the year __ |1,248,913 Other church expenses for the year _. £93,905 Missionary and other benevolent collections tl87,**!7 Number of Sunday-schools 24,003 Number attending Sunday-school 257,873 Average attendance on public worship 428,812 The table below shows three of the leading Items hy denominations: DENOMINATIONS. AOBICCI.TUBAL NOTES. »'•- Kansas claims to have produced 3.>,000,000 bushels of wheat, and 160,000,000 bushels of corn. The Minnesota farmers "do a great amount of fall plowing, and with the aid of frost are ready very early In the spring for seeding to spring wheat. The fence question In former heavily timbered sections Is going to be an Important one. The people on the prairies are solving it by stock laws. The condition of the growing wheat of Mlchignn Is reported by their Bureau of Statistics on December 1st at 01 percent, at same date last year It wns HO per cent. The farmers of this State marketed at the various mills, warehouses and elevators for the month ending December 1, lost, 142,181 bushels of wheat, and during November the farmers of Michigan marketed at IlkiTplaces In that State 127,0m bushels. We know of a farmer In a county of this state who don't read the papers, but who produces t) to 10 bushels of wheat per acre, and denounces "book farmers," as he calls Intelligent neighbors, who average IS to 20 bushels of wheat to the i.cre and take nnd read four agricultural papers. Comment Is unnessary. But It may be added that brain work and work with the hands Is the ro^d to (ncecs, and that farmer will learn the fact lf he lives long enough. _*, t* «J Oe o •ag. a?. p s* c *0 ct o ssi 3 1 — e*rti SCHOOLS FOB PRACTICAL EDUCATION. Purdue University, our State Agricultural and Industrial College, and the Hose Polytechnic Institute, at Terre Haute, Just opened, are two schools for practical education of which the State may well be proud. These schools have grown out of tho fact that a large per cent, of the graduates of literary and classic schools and colleges have gone out into the world with neither natural fitness for professional pursuits nor practical knowledge enough to do anything for which anybody wonld pay-them a dollar. TheoldfChool Idea and narrowness In educational methods Is gradually giving way to better thought, and lt Is a pleasure to know that our own Staters well up In the front rank in this new and practical movement. What was o few years Iigothe butt of ridicule In thi* regard has come to be most favorably looked upon by schoolmen.
