Of couno flr figure ara not exact, but thay will sot vary far from the truth. The whole number of acres under ewt-ttvatiou in the county the present season is about twelve thousand 1 This a -vided amongst the different crops as follows Cora, eight thousand five hand red wheat, ten thousand potatoes, Ave hundred oats, five hundred; and the remaining five hundred acres occupied by sugar cane, buckwheat, beans and vegetables generally. 11 The average yield per acre of these crops, is about a follows Cora, sixty -five bushels wheat, twenty-ire bushels; oats, twenty bushels; potato, two hundred bushels.

This would give a grand total of five hondred and fifty-two thousand aad five hundred bushels of corn flfty thousand bnshels of wheat one hundred thousand bushels of potatoes, and ten thouaand buthela of oat. i The number of cattle, of all kinds, in this county, is six thousand five hundred horsea. one thousand: mules, one hun wno see no good in any political movement unless it be for the triumph of party, eveu though such triumph may result in the ruin of the country. We say we were prepared for this; and hence when the Leavenworth Times and Register only compare us with such very eminent and distinguished persons as Judas Iscariot and Benedict Arnold, and charge us with having sold out "body, soul and breeches," for gold aye, "Government gold" we feel that we have been verv kindly dealt warming up the soil by absorption of the sun's rays, nothing has been gained. The shallow plowing is done at much less expense, and it will be seen is of much more practical value.

A shallow plowing farmer would do the work about right, and if he could change work in the spring with his deep plowing neighbor, or be persuaded to vary his practice to eight inches, he will have made decided progress. A fourteen or sixteen inch cast steel plow should be nsed for the shallow plowing, while a twelve inch one will be as large as two horses can draw through an eight inch time his hair was already gray, showed that time had occasioned but little change in his appearance, while its only effect on his mind was, perhaps, a lack of that Cswar of concentration which enabled iru to master so many various depart -men of natural science.

31, 1859. In the ropr and timely use of the plow consists the great element of rue ce.sfnl farming. We have, from time to time, much upon this subject, and much remains to be said, a part of which we propose to say at this time, as it is thu proper season to say it In the north part of the State alarge amnuntof autumn plowing is done in the central lew and in Egypt very little. In the first place every acre of cultivated land should be turned over as soon after the crop are taken off as possible, to that the stubble and weeds will have rotted before the ground freezes up. This being the first dogma in our creed, we will not stop to discuss it, but proceed to say how the plowing should be done.

Every farmer who has grown spring wheat or oats, knows the necessity of plowing his land in the fall, for two very important reasons. One, that he can sow these grains bef-re the land would have been iu a condition to plow, thus facilitating his work.
