Cleveland, Enat Tenn,, Alov. 4.— Our season 
for putting in wheat lias so far been very fine. 
The acreage this, nearly doubles that put in 
last season. Cold weather lias not yet set in 
alt hough we have had one or two hard frosts. 
Wheat, sowed early, looks well and oats much 
better Ilian common. Many farmers in this 
county, now that the experiment has been tried 
with good results, are preparing to put in a 
large amount of cotton in the spring. We have 
found that nearly a bale (500 pounds) can be 
raised to the acre with as little labor as corn. 
Another experiment will bo tested next season. 
So soon as the wheat is cut we intend to sow 
two bushels cow peas t o the acre on the st ubble 
and in August turn them under for manure 
and then sow wheat again. Do you see any ob¬ 
jection to the experiment / These cow p as 
grow ten inches high in six weeks and then 
begin to bloom and run. They are very pulpy, 
and rot in much less time than it takes them 
to grow. We find on the same kind of soil that 
a bushel sown on an acre and turned under in 
August is equivalent to about twenty loads of 
well rotted manure. Our produce market is 
not now so active as usual. Potatoes, both 
Irish and sweet, are selling at 50@75c.; corn, 
50c.; wheat on tho rise, at $1.60@1.80; oats, 40c.; 
butter, 30c.; eggs, 30c.-A. E. Blunt. 
Morristown, Ind., Nov. 12.—Central Indiana 
has suffered this season from extremes of wet 
and dry. Corn below an average, late, badly 
frost bitten. Wheat nearly an average, but 
badly injured by wet in the stack. Oats, 15c20 
bushels per acre; potatoes, short: one-half of 
the hogs have died with the cholera; still dy¬ 
ing. We arj experiencing pa nie prices. Hogs. 
$363,25; wheat, 00c.©1; corn. 25@30c.; oats, 
25&30C.; potatoes, 50@75c.; cattle, stock, $3© 
3.50; fat, $4.5005; other products at about same 
rates; grumblers grumbling. Patrons of Hus¬ 
bandry flourishing. More Anon. 
Girard, Penn., Nov. 14.— We have had a 
beautiful summer and fall until about three 
weeks since ; when it commenced raining, and 
has continued so to do until at present writing; 
now It snows and scorns like winter in earnest. 
Potatoes (one of our chief products) are nearly 
all dug and Lave yielded from one to two hun¬ 
dred bushels per acre. Corn is sound, with a 
yield of fifty bushels per acre (shelled); Is about 
lnjlf husked. Crops have nearly all been good 
except hay. which was very light. Potatoes are 
worth 70@80<:. per bushel; corn, 55c.; oats, 42c.; 
barley, $1.50; wheat, $1.50©1.65; hay, $20 per 
ton; eggs, 28c. per doz.; butter, 35c.; applesand 
other fruits are plentiful.— ,t. l. r.
