B. Blow- ers. $10,000 worth of products was sold in one season; expenses were $2,000. Another farm owned by N. Wyokofl' seemed to be equally productive. CORN. Last week I saw on the farm of J. Fowler a fine sight of 70 acres of corn of dificrent varieties, some of it planted the of .Tune and gi'owing from five to eleven and one-half feet high. The soil, with proper cultivation, would produce 100 bushels per acre. DAIRYING Is not carried on as largely as it might be, but there is no reason why this county should not be the " Orange County" of the State. D. Faruham is one of the largest and best butter-makers here. He makes about 100 lbs. a week, and for color and flavor it cannot be excelled. THE WHEAT CROP. Has been good for this season. Summer-fal- lowing is in general favor here, lands so treat- ed yielding from 30 to 40 bushels, when win- ter sown yields from 15 to 25. The gale of last Spring did serious damage to wheat, con- sequently many are looking for a variety that will ripen after the high winds cease. Proper wheat has been a favorite seed, but its ripen- ing too early makes it objectionable. Club seems to be the choice of many for next sea- son. Land here is worth from $20 to $200 an acre, according to location and improve- ments. FARMING MACHINERY. Farmers are using
