Ollter Dalrymple, the great Western wheat grower what plnck and steady purpose of mind will accom lIIsh.o "We occupy most of our agricultural rpace this week with an article from the Hearth and Home: Details of the great Dalrymple wheat farm in Min nesota. If our readers are as much delighted with its perusal as we have been, they will not find fault with Its length. ' Being In the northern region of Minnesota, we thought to visit Mr Dalrymple and his wheat farm. We wished to see the man who had turned over twenty hundred acres of prairie sod, and brought fourth forty-five thousand bushels or Minnesota wheat. Wetook the afternoon train from the little inland village of Farmington to Hastings, twenty miles below ht. Paul, on the west bat k of the Missis sippi. A ten cent rerry nae took us over the great river; thence we cross the narrow timber bottom; thence up a winding ravine, and we emerge Upon the broad prairie that forms the high delta between the St, Croix and the Mississippi. Half a mile onward and we bring up before a neat story-and-a-half cottage, with wings and porticoes extending from the side and end.' A few acres of smooth prairie lawn, set out with trees, are enclosed with the house, and forty acres with the stable to the right. On all sides beyond are seen wide billows of dark, fresh turned soil. This we thought, must be the great Dalrymple farm ; but first we must see the Colossus himself. A knock at a little side door was answered by a tall, slight, youngish looking man in slippers. ."Is Mr. Dalrymple at home?" c "That is my name sir." "Mr. Oliver Dalrymple? "Exactly bo." Our Colossus was diminished. Our Imaginary stiflT backed, strong armed giant was reduced to a courteous young gentleman, "gentle as a woman." ' We were made at home in a mo ment, and before the cold had passed from our fingers, we were well under way with the story of his farm work and wheat raising. He had finished his fall plowing, he said, of two thou sand acres the day before ( November 12th), and his work for the year was over. His thirty fat horses could now have a rest until spring, and he him self would soon be on his yearly round among his friends and the cultivated cities of the East. Mr. Dalrymple Is yet a bachelor of thirty-eight summers, of frank, intel ligent face and Southern type of man ners. He belongs to that rare and fortunate class in whom the ideal and the practical blend; who readily adapt means to ends; who easily ac complish great results; who seem, in a remarkable degree, to be posessed of the genius of success. He is a trans- oendentalist by natuae, living his own life, and carrying out his own ideas. He affects no style ; sets up no preten tions; is the least assuming of all about his farm. His cottage is plain without, but richly ordered within. Books, papers, pictures, comfortable lounges, and.easy chairs meet the eye in every corner. Two ebony children from the South have charge of his housekeeping. "Aunt Minnie," a " most wise, obliging, and cheerful young Alabama girl of fitty, looks after the kitchen, while the comely J Atnanua greets an menas ana visit ors with a face bubbling over with kindness and pleasentry. Mr. Dalrymple talks freely of his farming achievements, but rarely al ludes to his personal history. He is of Bootch parents ; born and raised a farm boy till seventeen, in Warden Co., Pa. He was three years at Yale, taking a practical course of studies, and attended law and sclentlflo lee turcs.lS5S, he decided to try his for, tunes beyond the Mississippi, whither the great current of fresh American lisp was then flowing. He reached the border settlements of Minnesota ta early fprlng.He didn't wait for clients or business to find him, but at once threw himself into the spirit of Western life, and sought him out a farm. His first work, after a week's travel about, was planting corn for a neigh bor to get money to buy a beetle and wedges ; thence he 6et to splitting rails, and putting up & log shanty on his preemption claim, eight miles from the infant village of Rochester. He got forty acres ploughed, hiring the money at three per cent, a month. In the fall, he made forChatfield, the hub of Minnesota land excitement, and opened a law and land office with ten cents capital. Other capital soon came to him for investment, and he loaned money and located land warrants at five percent commission, clearing often over a hundred dollars a week. In 1S-J9. he opened his office at St, Paul. In five years he held a cash balance of $30,000. He had had enough he said, of pettifocrtrinz and claim col lections, and he now resolved to grati fy his taste and inclinations out of to dpmnn- strate'two things:' 1st That capital and labor could be applied successfully to wheat raising on a laree scale. 2d. That a man could be farmer and not a slave. With these two distinct ideas before him. he set about to work them out, mindless of old rules and precedents. Within a vear he bought two thou sand acres of the best wheat land, onnosite Hastings, and near Point Douglas, paying from $7.50 to $15 an acre. It was smooth, high, undula ting prairie, without a bush or tree, that had only wild crass and flowers. and fed deer and partridges for thou sands of successive years. 1 he sur face 6oil is a dark, warm, vegetable loam, two feet deep, and mixed with clay, lime, and sand. It has a deep clav subsoil, resting on lime rock strata. . . ' m . a -1 The location 13 giignuy ana accessible, and is admirably described by the rapturous "Gail Hamilton" in her Wool Uathcrtng auveniures oi three years ago. Gall s little sheep family, by the war, has long since been dismembered, and the location of her sheep farm, a mile out of Hast- incrs. become mostly unknown to the DeoDle there In June, 1S6T, Mr. Dalrymple put in fifteen breaking teems, with six heavy horses each. They turned mile loner furrows, sixteen inches wide, and two and half deep. In forty-two days he had seventeen hun- L - . 1 I A. dred acres "unaer piougu," at an average cost of $3 an acre. He fenced his farm in three divisions: one or a thousand acres, and two of five hun dred each. He set fourteen miles of oak post fence four boards high, at a cost of &00 a mile. The larger divi sion, where he resides, he calls his "Orant farm." and the other two his "Sherman" and "Sheridan" farms. His stables and train houses are 60 by 30 feet each, with shed and storing apartments on both sides. He uses his own farm Implements, and uses the best. He has thirty stout horses, averaffinsr 1,200 pounds each, and worth $500 a span. He has pet names for all; and keeps them fat. He hires his other force of work horses as needed. He has fifteen farm wagons. and three private carriages for himself and friends, lie keens two cows lor milk and cream. With the exception of a hundred acre natch of clover and timothy, and a trifle of gardening, he crops only wheat, beed time ana harvest only require his attention ; he is his own man, he says, nine months in the year. He keeps two responsi- r liia "dron form" ble vounir men on his "Grant farm at all times ; also the two ever-trusty and cheerful ebony girls. He has an eighty acre wood-lot bordering his prairie, equal in profit, he says, to two acres of wheat. Mr. Dalrymple attaches special im portanee to seed sowlug and sowing early. He commences about the 12th of April, and dispatches the whole in two weeks. He uses twelve broadcast seeders, which are followed by twenty four drag teams. All move together In battalion order, under one supervi sion. His horses are in gooa trim, the men make long daj-s, and all are cared for generously. He puts in a bushel and a half of Scotch-fife wheat to the acre. His last spring's seeding' took an even three thousand bushels, and was finished in exactly twelve days. Harvesting is the great event of the vear. and calls out tne true JJairvm pie talent and directi ng energy., i he idea is to secure the largest measure of results in the shortest space of time; to get the harvesting finished, the wheat to market, and the money in pocket, while others are dawdling along under barn covers, or watching their field stacks in terror of fires and equinoctials. Two weeks before bar vest, he advertises in St. Paul for one hundred and twenty-five men at2.50 day. He has no trouble In recruit ing good men who have worked in the prairies or on river rafts. They like the excitement of great numbers. Harvest opens early In July. Fifteen lour-horse JUC 'UormicK reapers move into the field together, following each other side by side, like the flight of wild geese thro the air. Jsinty bin ders swarm on these tracks, working in sections of a mile. They are fol lowed by shockers, setting up bundles, by twos and twos, in numbers of twelve. A mounted overseer directs the whole. It is an inspiring 6ight fifteen broad armed reapers plunging into a sea of waving grain. Men and horses do their best. If one falls be hind, another takes his place. Every thing is provided for, and no time lost. Horses are washed and well groomed at night. Men go Into the field at sunrise, and are called to dinner at 11 ; lunch is taken out at 4, and supper ready at dark. All feed at one table in the long rear wing. Aunt Minnie and Amanda have ample help, and are radiant with added kitchen glories, and two dollars a day. Hundreds of visitors come from afar to witness the reat harvest spectacle. In two weeks the battle with the reapers are over. and sixty thousand wheat stacks checker the wide harvest fields. There Is no stacking. When the reapers have finished, the whole force of men and teams are turned over to the threshing machines and market wagons. Four ten-horse power and two steam power machines are moved into line and ready for work. The wheat is drawn straightway from the shocks, put through the machines, emptied into bags, loaded on wagons, drawn to the river, lifted in the eleva tor, run through the cleaner, spouted nbarges, shipped to Milwaukee, and sold on arrival. All this goes on each day, as one act, under one system of direction. Every night the machines are moved to new stations, and the fresh straw burned. The men get two dollars a day during the thresh ing period, and Work as many hours as nature and daylight Will ' properly aiiow. in iwi'iveui uiieen uuys me work of the threshers aud market wagons is ended. Fall plowing is a simple affair with Mr. Dalrymple, and requires no extra supervision. J.t follows close uj on upon the threshing, one manager ooking after all. Twenty two-horse ploughs are put into the stubble field together. They move in order and in section? three miles about, turning a furrow twelve inches wide, and each year a little deeper than before, to reach fresh soil. They cut sixty acres day, and require two months of average fall weather to complete the .whole. Mr. Dalrymple pays $50 a month for this season of work, not exceeding ten hours a day. With the completion of th ploughing, the work season closes, and "BiUy," ami "Tom," and "Tauey," aud "Jerry," are stripped of their shoes, and turn ed loose in the forty acre stable lot, to fly their heels and switch their tails In unrestrained enjoyment, till April breezes have returned again upon the hills. No ghosts of horses have ven tured on tho farm for more than two years. The average cost of raising wheat on good Minnesota wheat lands, at last summer prices of labor on the Mississippi, is figured by Mr. Dalryra- Ide, at fifty cents a bushel, or ten .dol ars un acre. The items of expense per acre include stubble plouching $2; seed wheat, $1.50; sowing, $1; cutting. $1: binding, etc., $2.25; threshing, etc.. $2.50. With cheap ened transportation, an the West must have, Mr. Dalrymple thinks the ave rage price or wheat on tne Mississippi cannot fall below a dollar a bushel. Mr. Dalrymple gives the following results of his three summer recrea tions': His crop from seventeen hundred acres in 1867 harvested twenty-one bushels to the acre, and netted him $10,000. over and above the entire cct of his land, ploughing, fencing, seeding, ana an me iauor empiojeu. His crop from seventeen hundred ! acres in 1KG8 harvested twenty -three bushels to the acre, and netted him $40,000 at home, above the cost of production. His crop from twenty nunurea acres - . . in 18G0 harvested twentv-two and a half bushels to the acre. and. netted him i25.000 above the cost of raising. Addinir the present cash value of his farm (&S0.000). and the net profits of his three years' wheat growing ex ceed $150,000. Not a bad exhibit for a vouncr man. who twelve years ago. was earning his beetle ana weages out am one the iropher wilds. Mr. Dalrymple is a progressionist, and Is maturing plans for wider enter prises, lie will soon cive tne poraer Minnesotians a lesson in stock raising. a lovely orirl in Wisconsin recently recovered $140 damage in a breach of promise suit against a pernauou9 iov- er.

Yoa sar in your circular It is a seedling of the Delaware'and Diana; I think thecharacter of each of these varie ties is quite tlistintrui.shable In the UVfi-r, particu larly that of the lMflaware. I aintf think it would m ike a wine of hiirh character. I have visited it annually since It first bore, six years ao, three times in Clster Co., N. Y in a low valley, where the Isa beJa seldom ripens, and each time'it was fully ripe In Ausrut. I have seen it each of the ti see past sea bo is in Pouhkeepnie, ripening at the same time, exsepting last year, when the constant rains pre vented ail varieties from maturing at tlwir Bfnal til le, but it perfected its fruit by the middle of Sep tember. The raisins of the hist mentioned crop I ha ve seen and eaten, which were good. Prom its Btticeding in the low valley and tenacious clay ot M idena. and also in the dry slater position In PtuehkeepMe, I think it will be well adapted to the varied sections of our country.
