The Agriculturist suggests drying wet boots by filling them with dry oats to absorb moisture, then drying the oats by the fire for reuse. In Aniliana thirty-six gangers organized in a week. The Patrons of Husbandry in Madison County Iowa bought the Dabney elevator at Winterset for 5000 dollars with possession set for August 1. A Philadelphia paper notes showers may cause corn to bear sticks and watermelons to resemble lager beer kegs in Paris green. Gentle country life is praised as luxuries by all except farmers, who take them for granted. For carriages, use water to remove mud before cleaning with sponge and chamois. avoid drying mud on varnish. Some families want fried cakes after harvest. omit shortening to reduce lard, use sour cream if no lard or butter. The Hocking Sentinel reports Mr Blosser, aged and feeble near Logan, faced harvest trouble but Grangers helped harvest his wheat.
