This is an old and favorite c variety, and we feel flattered with the idea that we have the pure seed again. Mr. Payne has the seed for sale at 23 cents per package. Ve were pleased to meet and make ;the acquaintance of Mr. Ed ward IIeiks, from Miama County. Ohio, c who has come out here Intending to ' embark in the Nursery Business. We welcome him and wish him success. c 0 A New Bee Hire. Dox Ahxold, of ' this place, who is quite a workman and genius in wood work, has invent ed n frew nioveble comb, 'moth proot Bee hive, one of which he has left at pur office for examination. We have examined and feel convinced that it is a valuable invention. Its cheapness as a moveble comb hive, is one of the great features. We hope Mr. Arnolii may meet with the encouragement and success he eo highly deserves. c"Tbc Farmerajs for all."

February 7th, 1870. -- Editor Advertiser : cc You will no doubt be surprised on receiving a letter from a total stranger c 1000 miles distant, but having been a c constant reader of your well conduct c ed and fpicy paper, for some two or Ihree years, and wishing to continue my subscription, I thought it might c c not be uninteresting to you to know that your labors are appreciated out Bide of your immediate locality. Of c the twenty or more weeklys I am in the habit of reading yours is the only one I pretend to read through. This :much of approval now a word at the outset of criticism your proofreader should be more careful, typographical errors are sometimes observable. You c well know how trying it is to a writer to have his ideas mangled and reading perverted by misplaced types. I am glad to see that your efforts in favor of building Railroads have so far been successful as to secure the votef o your town and precinct for rendering "material aid" to the B., Ft. K. & P. R. R. Co., by a large majority. The only wonder is that the vote was not . unanimous, so evident is it that Rail Roads not only double the value of real estate but also add to the spirit of business, energy ana prosperity or all e localities, where they are constructed. that any man who would vote against them, when judiciously located, is be hind the age in which he Jives. But there is another matter to wh ich I wish to call your attention, and which is the o chiei object or my writing this letter. Railroads, through uninhabited prai ries can be of but little use. You need a population to cultivate land through o which your Railroads are to go, for this you must Iook to immigration, o As surely as water seeks its level, so 0 surely 'loos the tide of immigration flow along, or near the paralells of lat itude from which it starts, if left to Its own option. The Commissioners of Immigration 6ay that the arrival in New York for 1SG9 were 254,875. Ne braska, perhaps is about the center of latitude from wnicn iney came and should have had more than 1644 which is all she got, according to said Commissioners. Since the close of the war it has been the expectation that as soon as fire eating element at the South should give place to a more industri- , eOUS and peaeeble population, the line of immigration would deflect in that direction. Earnest and powerful ef- forte are now being brought to bear, " to accomplish this end. " Southern capitalists having Invested larrelv in abandoned plantations are , straining every nerve to draw thither theflowing population of the old world as well as the agricultural tskill of the Northern Stales. Emigrant aid so cieties are formed in Northern Cities. Agents are located in New York from different sections of the South, to ap proach the emigrant immediately up on his urnv&l, tolureJiim. with the promise of cheap lands, bo near Rail Roads, and good markets, to direct his courte to the particular locality in which he, or his employerare interes ted, always forgetting to tell him that those lands are worn out with slave lalour, and that there is in the Great West a boundless plain of virgin soil, of inexhaustable fertility, to be had almost for the asking. Now that you have proved the fact that all the nec essary timber for a farraar can be cul tivated on your prairies at so much less cost, aye, and less time too, than a heavily timbered couutry can be cleared up, and above all that your soil needs no building up, and you have no stumps to pull up, nor root to grub, should you not, too, be making an effort to give the newly arrived emigrant a knowledge of the advantages which you possess? But I am spinning entirely too long a yarn for your columns and will close. S. II. We thank our unseen friend from the "Quaker City," for his valuable letter, and will endeavor to profit by his isuggestions. En. Croslred Wheat. Paris, Oxtario, Feb. 9th, 1S70. Col. R. W. Furnas : Dear Sir: Noticing in your issue of Dec. 30th that "Thomas Shaw, of Jenessee County, Mich., raised 210 bushels of Diehl Wheat on five acres of land.". I beg to call, your attention to two enclosed reports of committee appointed by our Ontario Board of Agriculture and the County of Brant Agricultural Society, upon my new Crossbred Wheat, which you will find yielded me (52) bushels of excellent Wheat upon one acre of poorly culti vated land without manure of any kind. Having been for many years of the opinion that our Cereals vegetables and fruits, have, like the animal kingdom, in many instances sufl'red from too close interbreeding. I have for several years been crossing differ ent varieties of wheat that are pro nounced by the farmers "run out," and the result has been, in nine in stances out of upwards of a hundred, with remarkably increased product iveness, and improved in quality. This 52 bushels was all sown again this fali.a and will be sold after next harvest, desirous that it should be tested in every partof this con tinent, I now offer to the Nebraska Board of Agriculture through you, 50 bushels of this wheat at $7, 50 per bushel. This may appear to you very much like an advertisement, if so, you must 6trikeitout.it was not intended as such, and vou must be aware that this Drice will not half pay any one for starting with one grain of each of these varieties, and bringing it on this far, especialy when the labor of raising and testing the hundreds of of rejected kinds is taken into ac count. Yours Trul, CIIAS. ARNOLD. Mr. Arxold has done, and is doing more, perhaps, to encourage wheat growing than almost any other man, and those who spend as much time experimenting as he. does, ought to be paid for it. Mr. A. is the originator of the famed Arnold's Hybrid Grapes which rank so high. Ed. The Tomato and its Culture. As the Season of year i3 approach Ing when gardening preparations are to be made, and as the Tomato is now of so general cultivation we occupy a large share of our agricultural space with an article from J. Payxe Lowe, a successful cultivator of this valuable vegetable. Box 3224 New York. On the cultivation and training of the lomato: Since this fruit must be brought to perfection, why grow coarse, unsight ly, spongy, ill-flavored tomatoes, when by attending to a few simple, but important tilings, the finest quali ties may be had? IMPORTANCE OF SAVING SEED FROM EARLY FRUIT. The temptation of growers for mar ket, to sell the earliest at a large price is so great, that little seed is saved ex cept from those maturing later; doubtless under the impression that the seed is just as good. But this is a freat mMake. The seed from the fruit which ripens earliest auy season will be the earliest and best the next year. There is no doubt that ttie to mato has been vastly improved bv careful culture (and can be still fur ther) in the desirable qualities of ear liness, productiveness, size, solidity, fewness of seeds, beauty of form, thin ness of skin, delicacy of flavor and riehaess of color. HOW TO IMPROVE THE ERUPT. Our experience has told us that this is the way to do it: 1st. Plants should bo grown in warm, light, rich sou trom the seeds of the earliest ripened Yruit having most, if not all the valuable qualities mentioned. 2d. They should be grown earl. 3d. During no time of their growth should they suffer from want of warmth' sunshine, fresh air. and a soil in proper mechanical and chemi cal condition for their healthy growth. GREMINATING THE SEEDS IN A LITTLE . BOX. For family use, (and it is especially with this view we write,) the plants may be started in a little box in a warm room : and for field culture in a lot-bed or green house. In quite a small box all the plants any family need may be grown. A few plants well cared for will bo worth a great deal more than a large number ill- grown, such as we so often see crowd ed to suffocation and death In dealers' hot-beds. Such long, weakly things can have no value. The little box need be no more than two feet long a foot wide and a few inches deep, covered with glass to counteract the dryness of the atmosphere of the room. Put the box in the sunshine, keep the room warm and caiefully venti lated. Do not be in too great haste to germinate the seeds? but once started see that the plants get no check from want of care. WHEN TO SOW SFF.D FOR AN EARLY CROP. In the neighborhood of New York, the seed may be sown about the mid dle of February or the beginning of iarcn. TRANSPLANTING. YV hen the plants are two or three inches high they may be put into Iar ger ones, or into a hot-bed. the trans planting of tuem at least twice, or even three or four tinie3 before put ting them in the open crround. (which should not be done till all appearance of frost has gone, unless they are pro tected when necessary.) will hasten early ripening. Each time, before transplanting, the soil should be well watered so that a oall of earth mav be removed with each plant, and this is particularly desirable when they are beinir put in the onen irronnd and thus their growth will not be checked. During all this time let them have all the light and fresh air they can stand; use mild days but beware of cold and frost. A uniform warm temperature is desirable, but not so hotaato make the plants grow too tall and sickly. If convenient, the plants, some time before being set in If ySSffS the open ground, may be put into a cold frame, protecting them at first as much as may be necessary. If the above plan be followed faith fully you will have an abundance of fine healthy plants, when everybody else is scouring tne country for what is not always to be found good toma to plants. OPEN GROUND CULTURE. Once in the open ground they will delight and flourish in a rather light than heavy, and rich, but not over rich, soil, and if on the southeastern exposure of a hill side, where they will be protected from the cold winds, and enjoy the sunshine, all the better. They should not be less than four feet apart. Keep the soil friable. I Let no weeds grow. Hoe-early and often, and they cannot take posses sion of the soil. WHEN TO SOW SEED FOR A LATE CROr. For a late crop the seed may be sown in the open' ground in spring. When planted in their place, they will bear till the frost comes, and longer if protected. PRUNING. As the greater part of the fruit on the tomato vine is borne near the ground it will be found that the short ening of the vines will cause nutri tion to flow to fruit instead of making , branches. Don't be afraid to cut out all suckers and non-bearing branches, and to shorten those that wander. The writer knows that the advantages of pruning are questioned by some, but he has learned by experience, whatever may be the rationale of the matter, the results are in favor of rather severe pruning. KEEPING THE FRUIT CLEAN. . The fruit may be kept clean and prevented from premature decay by spreading brush, salt hay, or other such material under the vines, or by trainincr them. But if the soil be liVht and drv this will not be neces sary especially for a general crop. In garden culture, if it be thought best to train the vines, a simple way is to set poles twelve feet apart, the tops five feet high. Attach wires horizon tally to them, which will form a cheap trellis for the vines, thus exposing them to the free action of the sun and air. The flavor of the fruit thus grown will be finer than that ripened on the ground. VARIETIES THE BEST. A great deal might be said on varie ties: but after having tried the most popular ones the writer grows "Les ter s 1 elected Tomato" in preference to all others. Though not one of the newest varieties claiming attention having been favorably known for some years but as many mixed and sjmrious seeds have been grown and sold under this name, which misrep resent the fruit and the gentleman who introduced it, the writer has taken some pains to secure the genuine seed. He grows "Lester's Perfected Tomato," first, because he thinks it the best, and second, because he farms for profit as well as for pleasure. The Sunflower. Years ago the leaves of this were uced as a substitute for tobacco, and were said to be useful in asthma. They are excellent fodder for cattle. The seeds make good feed for chick ens, besides yielding very superior oil. The stems make the very test bean pole3, and if cut and kept dry, are good kindling wood. The leaves, whether green or-dry, are eagerly devoured by horses or cows. We are not prepared to vouch for the correct ness of the opinion, that the sunflow er is an absorbant of malaria, and therefore a preventive of fevers, but some persons who live on low ground cultivate it near dwellings under this impression. Leaving this point out of view altogether, the plant is wor thy of cultivation. One good quality has not yet been mentioned, but it is one of the most important recomen dations it affords excellent pasture for bees. Indeed the florets are so full of honey that the bees seem to be clogged with the excess of sweetness and sometimes are so covered over with it that they become helpless, until their comrades come to their j relief. We are persuaded that if a; corner of a yard or garden has once become devoted to the raising of sun flowers, there will be no disposition in subsequent seasons, to let the sup ply die out. lake it altogether the sunnower is deserving or iar more attention than has usually been allot ted to it.
