THE ADVERTISER
THURSDAY MORNING. JULY 0, 1ST1.
"iVH AGAIN RETIRE.
We retire from tho Advertiser after
our short term of labor for many rea
sons which wo do not care to explain.
Lest what may appear on the outside
of this issue might in some way cm
barass our successor, it may be well to
say that hois Rot responsible for the
pelections made, as he will not take
possession until the outside is off the
press. Having been controlled by no
olique, no prejudices, no prospective
individual interests, we have endeav
ored to make tho Advertiser a me
dium of our own independent opin
ions of men, measures, and local and
State policies. Those men who have
been following a legitimate and hon
orable calling, trade or business, those
who have been working for the good
of-all classes, and the best interests of
the Republican party, have given us
their Patronage very liberally, and
have. offered us largo promises for
the future. W shall cherish their
good opinions and kind words in
our retirement, and shall hope in the
future as in the past, to merit their
repeet und confidence. In handing
- ovor the paper to the fostering care of
iraj. Cnflrey, we would bespeak for
him the same hearty support as has
" Ijo'en granted to us. The Advertiser
"-has done much, and we know it can
do immensely.more, for the develop
ment of the natural and acquired re
sources of this connty. To do this
the people of the county must stand
by it, and stay up the hands of its
nropriotors with such natronarre as
the people and the party can com
mand. Our interests in the future of
the Advertiser will not cease on th.e
incoming of the new editor, but we
Khali work to influence its course, and
its labor in the interests of good gov
ernment, good morals, and a higher
development of humanity.

The Spring and Summer of 1S71
lias thus far been noted for the rapid
and luxurious growth cf all vegeta
tion. The crops have and are matur
ing early. The "Winter wheat, tho'
not abundant, is average in yield.
The berry never was larger, plumper
and heavier in any country or in any
year than in this. In traveling over
the county wc see one vast corn field.
"We never had so mauy acres planted,
nor never had eo good a bland as may
now be seen in this county. ts cul
tivation is-now over, and many fields
are tasscling out. The Spring wheat
and the oats suffered some from the
dry weather in April and the forepart
of May, but immensely more in June
from the chinch bug. It is shocking
to see how extensive have been their
ravages to these crops in the western
portion of this county. They have
so far destroyed many fields thai it
would be better to set them on fire, if
,ny au uuiug me hugs might be de
Toured in the flames. The indica
tions now arc that they are going for
the cornfields. How destructive they
may prove to be in this crop wo know
not, but there are not a few who pr -diet
that they will cat up the corn in
the county within tho month of Ju
ly. Wo do not believe that anything
like such a result will follow. Still
wc shall not be surprised to hear that
their damage in the corn fields of the
county will be quite extensive. These
indications call for the greatest econ
omy upon the part of all. We must
.not enter into promises now which
we cannot easily perform should our
prospective resources fail us. We are
nuacquaiuted with; tho habits and life
of this insect, and, therefore, know
but little what to predict. Wero it
not for tills we certainly would have
a most bountiful crop of corn. Would
it not bo well if farmers succeed in
stopping their progress by any meth
od or means, that they communicate
the same to tho Advertiser, so that all
may avail themsolves of such econo
my. Farmers should remember our State
Fair this Fall, and in their farming
have an eye to being represented large
ly in every department of agricultur
al productions. What wo grow and
tiiere exhibit ought to bo a valuable
advertisement of the resources of the
county as a farming experiment. If
the weather is fair and the crops
abundant we shall see a larger con
course of people present than ever be
fore in one place in Nebraska. Many
are trying Nebraska by what she may
do this year, which, if favorable, will
draw them and their capital into our
State early next year. Nebraska is
more on trial tiiis year than ever be
fore, and all our farmers ought to pre
pare to show what may be accom
plished on hersoil.

PE.VRPCL SUFEERIXS OP A SIIIF
WRECXED CEEW.
We have to record (says tho Figi
Times) one of tho most, miraculous
escapes from death at sea, in many
forms, that have ever been made pub
lic. The bark Dashing Wave, a suc
cessful China tea-clipper, is down as
missing. Captain Vandervord was
the master of the vessel, and, from
him, we learn the following particu
lars: He left Foochow on July 29th,
bound for Sidney, and on the night
of August 31st, the weather being
thick, and squalls coming down at
intervals, Captain Vandervord took
in the maintopgallantsail at 10 p. 3t.,
and went below to lie on the sofa in
the cabin; at 10:30 he went on deck
again, and was just In time to see a
small island right ahead ; he shouted
to the man at the wheel to put the
helm down, and the vessel had near
ly come round, when her keel touch
ed on the-reef which surrounded the
island. Half an hour after taking
the bottom, the copper came over the
weather-sides iu sheets, aud the fore-
mast sunk eighteen inches; the main
mas.t wis cut away, but the ship be
gan to" break up fast. Tho island
proved to be Wake Island, small aud

miles out of the position given in tho
chart. 10 degrees SO minutes north,
1D7 degrees east. The crew took- to
the long-boat, and Captain Vander
vord secured a chart and nautical in
struments, but, strange to say no com
pass was saved ; a case of colonial
wine, a bag and a half of bread, and
two buckets were put in the boat, but
no water; and for thirty-one days the
thirteen men were in the open boat,
without seeing land orship, or receiv
ing any as-sistance whatever.
They left the wreck the morning
after, and with a sail made of blan
kets sewn together and fixed to an
oar, began tneir weary juuiubj
search of some inhabited island.
Their sufferings may be imagined.
For the first five days they had not
n rlrnn of water, and the Captain serv
ed one bottle of Cawarra daily be
tween the thirteen. That saved their
lives. After that time, they had rain,
and caught water, but, except at the
time it was actually raining, only a
half-pint of water each, a day, was
served out, with a handful of bread,
To the credit of the men and their
commander, there was no insubord
ination, no attempt to obtain more
than their share of the scanty provis
ions and precious water ; silently but
resigned, they passed day after day,
with the sun pouring down on meir
unsheltered heads. Every day, Cap
tain Vandervord got tho boat's posi
tion by means of his instrument ; but
when the weather was dull they went
in all directions, for want of a com
pass, especially on cloudy nights. It
was the master's intention, to make
for the Kingsinill group, but the cur
rent was against "them, and then a
course was steered for Ascension Is
land, and, had any of the party been
able to row, they might have reached
it ; but, weak as they were, all they
could do was to keep their boat be
fore the wind with the blanket-sail.
After thirty days of suffering, their
mouths parched, tongues swollen
wet with grateful showers, scorched
bv a tropical sun they sighted
Strong's (Uniting Island, the easter
most of the Caroline group, lie re
the castaways saw a canoe outside,
taking produce from the island to an
other, and, had they been able to get
some provisions, Captain Vandervord
would have ke.pt on, and tried to
make one of the islands of the Marsh
al or Gilbert groups, adjacent. The
boat refused to trade with them ;
when they went inside, and were re
ceived bv the king with the utmost
hospitality; he took the captain and
mate to live with him, and assigned
quarters to the men in the town.
DO FAIOIER3 STUDY EXOUGIl :
The subject of agriculture i3 one
that demands full as much attention
at tho hands of the reading public as
it gets. Indeed, no theme presents
itself that is fraught with more real
import, so far as regards our prosper
ity, than the wants of the agricultur
al world. What we mean by atten
tion is a studious, careful search for
the best way of accomplishing cer
tain desired results; not a superficial
investigation of some theory merely
for the purpose of creating deferen
ces and provoking discussion. The
day has, happily, passed wheu being
a farmer is synonymous with being a
blockhead. It requires something
more than mere phytic."! stiength to
keep up with the advance of the ag-:
in farming as well as science. Many
of tho systems of fifty years ago are
no more applicable to the demands of
to-day than would be an ox-team to
run an opposition freight line across
the Plains. The farmer who reads
much, and reads that much with eare,
is the one who stands in advance in
Intelligence, influence, aud prosperi
ty. Science can aid tho farmer in rais
ing wheat or corn just as much as it
can aid the miller in grinding it ; and
the science to bo applied in agricul
ture is nothing more than a study of
the composition of soils and the prop
erties that are drawn from them by
certain grains. All this cannot be
done in a day any more than a physi
cian makes himself thorough and
successful by starting a drug store.
Study, in most instances, sustained
by judgement and experience, pro
duces the desired result. Farm Jour

A SOJITIIERX LOAD OF WOOD.
I walked out to the east of tho city
(Columbia, S. C.) having no objec
tive point in view, except to get into
the country. In tho suburbs of the
city I met a concern that alwavs at
tracts the attention of a stranger. It
was a South Carolina load of wood.
This load of wood was on a rickettv
wagon, the wheels of which wabbled
and bobbed about over the road in as
unsteady a manner as so many drun
cn men. Tho tracks that it made
were fearful to see. On this wagon
was a rack, and in this rack were
four pins, each about two feet high.
They were distant apart from each
other some fourteen inches one way,
and four feet tho other. Within
these standards, gentle reader, was
the load of wood. Honestly, there
was not enough of it to make 01 e
good fire in a fire-place of even m. d
erate dimensions. "Ono of the oid
fashioned soi t would swallow wagon,
wocd and all, and then call for more.
Hitched to this wagon was an animal
which, iu the better days of the Re
public, might havo been a horse.
Now it was a portion of a horse's
skin, filled with his bones. The
horse himself did not seem to bt
thre. This bundle of some skin an'
considerable bones was hitched to 'he
"wagon" by means of two pieces of j
clothes-line rone, and an armful of'
straw tied with something that might
pass for a villainous burlesque on a
horse-collar, by means of a strap cut
from au old boot-leg. The bridle was
made out of a scrap from the same
boot-leg that had entered so largely
into the construction of the "collar."
There weie only two pieces of it and
the bit. This last was a big army
affair, and not having shrunk away
with the horse, it looked, by the side
of liis famished jaws, like 1 lighting
rod twisted into fantastic shaped The
reins were on a scale . f grandeur
commensurate with the rest of the
turnout, one of them being made out
of what appeared to be old shoe
strings, and the other of several arli-
eies, Hiaruii'r out wun a small cn.iin
nnqr
ent ly cut from the coi- of piece of
cotton haggiug, and enue'l . ' n bit
of cho clothes-line that was lei": over
from the traces.
The driver and apparent owner of
this turn-out was a tall, thin, lean,
sallow, snindle-shanked. lantprn-
jawed, cadaverous looking cu3s, who
looked as if lie had not had a square
meal since 18G0, and could eat up the
weight of his wood and horse, if pre
sented in the shape of meat and
bread, at a single sitting.
I looked at thid moving panorama
of poverty so intently that tho pro
prietor thought I wanted to buy, and
brought his animal to a halt. It was
no trouble to do that, as tho bones in
the dried skin suddenly stopped wad
dliug, oven before the word of com
mand was fairly out of the driver's
mouth, or there had-been the slicrht-
est jerk on the twisted lightning Jrod;
'.JDoyer want ter buy. this 'ere
wood?" he asked.
"What's it worth?"
ne:ir the bit, or twisted ligii ting-rod,
then a short piece of fishing-line,
then a few feet of some'Link' nnnir.

consarning of the supply of such
needs as city people has to contend
with, whioh i3 different from the
way we do in- the country- about
things of the sort, you know. Have
you got any tobacco?"
I did not use the weed.
- "Wall, talk up pert 'bout this 'ere
wood. My old nag's- 'bout to lay
down, and if I don't move on he'll
lay down in spite of the devil, and
when lie once gets down it takes
work for to get him up, and I've
found that the surest way to under
stand these little ways this horse
does is to keen him on tho move, for
then he can't lay down, don't you
see, for he's all of the time going
ahead."
I told him I did not care to buy his
wood, at which he raised a whoop be
hind his horse that would have caus
ed any animal half-way fed to have
run away, then pushed his wagon
against liim as a further incentive to
get along, and the panorama of pov
erty slowly moved on toward the city.
