THE FARMERS' CIRCLE. (BY ONE WITHIN IT.) The first. step towards the formation of a farm- ers' party was taken some months ago, when Bev- ral meetings were held on the subject. Little has been heard of it of late, but I understand, says a London correspondent, that we shall hav uch a party at the General election. It is not te ;.e exactly a caucus, but it has been decided thai at the approaching appeal to the countrj a hi dy of men will be banded togetbei who. in exercising their electoral rights will cor- bider only the interests of agriculture. Mr Yerburgb has sent to the printers his Bi 1 for the maikiog of imported meat. The measun proposes to carry out in the simplest possible way the recommendations made by the Select Com 1 mitteo which recently inquired into the Bubjec. I'h.t, is to s. it proposes that dealers in foreigr or colonial meat shall register and notify themselv* 8 as such, the notification to be plainly written over their shops. The carrying out of the meaeu* < is placed in the hands of the local authoriti-P a ho .,re appointed inspectors for the purpose VIr Yerburg will not proceed further with his Bil. untill next session. Meanwhile be hopes that may be fully considered by farmers, butchers, anf 11 others concerned. On Wednesday Mr T. F. Kynnersly, of Leighto: Hall, disposed of his herd of Montgomeryahit. Smoky-faced and Jersey cattle. Shropshire sheep. and poultry, for the purpose of providing increased accomodation at the Home Farm for his hackney horses, in the breeding of which he holds a pre eminent position. The sale was one of grea • importance from the fact that all the animah were pedigree animals, and particularly that tbl herd of Montgomeryshire Smoky-faced cattle is believed to be the only pedigree one in the country. In many respects the breed is superior to others, and the animals are characterised by the splendid milking qualities they possess, and their nature, which helps them to shine on the poorest land. In breeding they are also prolific, their hides are more valuable than those of other cattle, and it is indeed unfortunate and astonishing that up to the present they have not received the attention they so richly merit. It is to be hoped now that such a valuable herd has been dispersed over all parts of the country, this pretty and most useful type of a.nimal will in a very short time become more popular, and its value properly appreciated. A large number of well known buyers and breeders having partaken of lunoheon. the sale, conducted by the fiim of Messrs Hall, Wa'eridge, and Owen. Shrewsbury, was proceeded with, and very satis- factory prices were realised. Mr Kynnersley, wlo riati kept some half dozen of these cattle for the use of his own dairy, has promised to publish th :igiual (j; mi book for tre use or buyers a' I. salo. He will keep one bull, And with the, 3 operation of the buyers at ttiis sale he hop. gain a-. fi m f o'ing for this breed of cattle d, following are the prices: Jersey cows— Oow.-lip (16 years old) 6 guineas; Sweetbriar silver Beauty 27gs; average Jersey cows JJ16 13<. !ersey he fe»s—Lady Mary Silver Queen!

Probably, as a consequence of the exceptionally early and short harvest, autumn sowing of careert> will be pretty general this month. Certainly, tW .up'.utioa to push m with the work is vetj Except, perhaps, ou the strong scur cla*i,' 11to..1 was probably nevr in a m.)re tavourebl for receiving thf eeed, and certainh ver was the weather more inviling for the pip 3 ion of uuch work. But there are other cir ;'iirefanc':s to be taken into consideration. True, 'he state of the seed bed, and the nature of th. weather duung seeding time, have an all-impor- tant bearing upon the progress of the crop. But let it be kept in mind that rapid progress in the early history of autumn-sown cereals is rather detrimental than otherwise to the later develop- ment and productiveness of the crop. Only a moderately-strong growth is desired until th' winter is over. The danger of procuring av extravagant autumn growth does not arise alto- gether, nor indeed principally, from the condition of the soil and weather at the time of sowing. On the contrary, it should be the most scrupulous aim of every farmer to deposit the grain in a dry and finely-prepared seed bed. The chief point to which farmers must pay special attention in an unusually early season such as the present is the time of the year at which the seed is sown. September sowing is not by any means an unusual occurrence. But it must be understood that there is a considerable risk of September braird becoming too rank before sufficiently cold weather sets in to check its growth. And the very con- genial nature of the soil this year will be inclined to aggravate the probable danger In view of t hese facts it would be well for farmers to give sartful consideration to these p;»iuts bef,,r,! rush- i-jg on with the sowing. October is usually a a ter month for seeding, and in all probability it might be wise to delay the greater part of the work uutil towards the fl, ot of nexf month. WHEAT AS FOOD FOR STOCK. Mr John Spier, Neuton Farm, Glasgow, contrib- utts to the North British Agriculturist his expo- iance in the use of wheat as a food for stock. He fays As a rule. farmers generally lcok on wher.t as being a dangerous food for farm stock, and with this opinion I am not much inclined 10 diffe I am, however, strongly of opinion that it is in the manner in which the wheat is used, and not in any inherent quality of the wheat itself, that the danger lied. Ever since wheat became so low in price, I have been in the habit of using large quantities of it for cattle, and smaller quan rities for horse feeding, and always with quite satisfactory results. My practice has generally been to sell at market value all wheat of the best qnlity, and to consume at home all damaged or secondary grain. My horses always get a small pailful of steamed or boiled grain each evening mixed with a proportion of chaff. The gr,jlitt used generally consists of two-third* of weak or second- class wheat, one-sixth of m.iiz?, and one Flirh of beaDS. At times, one or anDther of the latter two may be dropped out altogether. This mixture is appreciated by the horses, and, when givea in anati quantitief, has no liability to cause colic* or other derangement of the stomach. In fact, it is only at extremely rare intervals that I ever have a case of colic among the fourteen horses used herp, and when such does occur there is generally someihif g which ha* been done whieh easily accounts for it without this particular food. To the dairy cows I have been giving, during the past year, one third wheat. one-third beans, one-third psas, all ground into meal together. When wheat is ground it has a great tendency to run into flour and bran, and I am inclined to believe that much of the disfavour in which wheat is held as a cattle food is owing to the readiness which it has after grinding of running into dough when mixed with water. Bran is a favourite food both with horsemen and dairymen, while flour is considered, I think justly, unsafe by both.

LONDON, MONDAY.—Wheat.—The cargo market has been very firm to-day, chiefly owing to the I dissappointing conditions of the wheat crop in the United States, where the general average is report ed by the United States Department of Agricul- ture to be the lowest since 1885. Holders have consequently bean difficult to satisfy, and in more than in one case prices which would have been ac- cepted on Sunday were refused to-day in anticipa- tion of a further demand. BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY.—Better trade aH round. English wheat held for a shilling advance. Foreign wheat, 6d to Is advance. Barley and oats, 3d to 6d dearer. Maize, 6d to Is dearer. MANCHESTER, THURSDAY.—There has been more activity in the trade during the past week, I an i enhanced prices paid for most articles. To- day, with considerable inquiry, a moderate busi- ness resulted. English wheat, 6d per quarter, nd foreign 2d per cental dearer since last market. Flour raised od per sack. Peas and hardening bea.ns 6d per quarter, and oats Id per bushel !i igher. Maize firm at an advance of 3d per cental ,a the week. CATTLE. LIVERPOOL. MONDAY.—The supply of stoek was I smaller than last week. The demand was slow, and prices rather lower for all descriptions of stock. The quotations are as follow: Beef, first class, 61d., second class, óld., third class, W.; mutton and lamb, 71d, to 5d. per lb. Live-weight cattle, 35s. to 23s. per cwt. LONDON MONDAY.—The total imports of foreign stock into London last week amounted to 2,647 be d. A rather steadier tone has characterised the cattle trade. The cold weather has stimulated the demand, and causes prices to harden. The number of beasts was quite up to the average, but the condition again left room for improve- ment. There was a good demand for the best qualities, and the best Scots made 5B., runts and ilerefords being worth 4s. 10d., heavy Lincolns were 4s. 6d. to 4s. 8d. per 81b., but secondary descriptions changed hands slowly at about late rates. There was a good show of sheep in the pens. A slow but firm trade was reported, and quotations were well maintained. BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY.—Beef, 5id to 7Jd; mutton, 6d to 8d; lamb, 6d to 8d. Fair supply. Trade slow. DEAD MEAT. LONBON, MONDAY.—The supply was moderate, with little prime beef, consequently prices for that description were firmer; but for plain and inferior quotations show little alteration, and the demand being very small the market could not be declared Inferior beef, 2s. to 2s 8d.; middling ditto, 3s. to 3s. 8d prime ditto, 4s. to 4s 4d.; Scotch ditto, 4s. to 4s 4d.; American, Liverpool killed, 3s 6d. to 3s. 8d.; ditto hind-quarters, 3s. lOd. to 4s. 4d.; ditto fore-quarters, 2s. lis. to 9s.; English veal, 3s. 4d. to 4s. 4d.; Dutch ditto, 3s. to 4s.; infer- ior mutton, 2s. 4d. to 3s.; middling ditto, 3s. 4d to 4s.; prime ditto 4s to 4s 8d.

BRADFORD, MONDAY.—The market to-day shows firmness in most classes of wool, more particularly brightsorts, ordinary merinos, and low cross-breds. The inquiry is still improving, and on the whole there is little more doing in actual turnover. Values for English wool are steady, and it is ex. pected that the Bristol wool fair will show that prices arc not likely to go below current figures for the preset. Staplers have had some difficulty in obtaining supplies from the country, and if country rates are upheld there will have to be an improvement here to make profitable trading pos- sible. In the colonial trade strong cross-breds and merinos both show a tendency to improve. Top makers believe that after the opening of the Lon- don sales there will be an improvement in the values of tops here, and they are therefore hold- ing firmly to their stocks. Alpaca and mohair continue firm. In yarns there is more inquiry on export account, and spinners are firm in their quotations. There is a better demand for cross- bred yarns, and an improvement in ordinary wors- ted yarns is looked forward to. The American branch is the worst feature of the stuff department, business for that country being almost at a stand- Btill. Owing to the coal strike and slack trade there is a great deal of idle machinery. BBABTOB, THURSDAY.—The market is again without notable change, there being a firm feeling ud steady prices, with onlj a moderate amount »f business. In lnstres, exossbseds and merinos, prices ipfcfe Atffl maintained, and even with hardening tendency. Mohair is still tending ■jpwards.

THREE FORTUNATE WOMEN. We will introduce you to the oldest one first. Fit r name is Mrs Jessie Russell, and she lives near the city oi New York, in America. She was born in London in 1787, and is therefore 105 years old. She remembers many incidents of her childhood, ar d sil1 his traces of former beauty. Her eyas are bright I and become animated when she talks. She retains her mental faculties completely. She descends two flights of stairs to every tneal, and returns without assistance. Up to three years ago she was a regular attendant at the Greenwood Baptist Church. Her sight is excellent, and she reads the newspapers every day, and takes great interest in the news from ErF. land. She has never had any severe illness in her life, and her appetite and digestion are almost as Clod as they were fifty years ago. The second woman says: "Ever since I was a ehild I have suffered from illness. Thirteen yeais ago a tired, languid and heavy feeling cams oT^r n e t he whites of my eyes became tinged with yellow' my skin WitS sallow, and my hands and feet were cold and clammy. My mouth tasted badly, especially in t^e morning. and I was often sick, vomiting a st ur frothy fluid. I had a pain in the chest and sides heartburn, and flatulency. For four years I suBered like this, and I shall be glad to recommend the medicine that finally cured me." (Signed) (Mrs.) FRANCES EMILY SMITH, 49A, Woodhouee Strett( Leeds, January 25th, 1892. The third woman saya: "I have been delicate el my life. For the past six years I have always fel tired, languid, and weak. I had a poor appetite, a bad taste in the mouth, and pain after every morsel 1 ate. I was dizzy, and often felt as if I was going to fall. I always felt siek, and would retch and strain, but could bring nothing up. There was a dull pain at the right side and a dreadfnl pain between the snonlders. I never knew what it was to be well. After being on my feet for a time my legs would swell very much. No doctor was abla to help me nor any medicine; that is, up to the time I took the i ne which gave me my health back. I never felt so well in my life as I do now." (Signed) (Mrs.) SARAH SHAKKAN, Glinton, near Market Deeping, February 19th. 1892. Why do we put these three women in a group-the one venerable woman in America and the two others here in England P lihey are perfect strangers to one another and always will be. We do it to show how long and happily a woman may live if st e only happens to escape the malady that everywhere threatens her sex and also to show that those who have been burdened and cursed with it may be cured and onee more taste the joys of health. Mrs Smith concludes her letter in these words: "After taking three bottles of Mother Seigel's Cut a- tive Syrup all pain and sickness left me, and I knew ao more of the ailment that bad troubled rue so long, indigestion and dyspepsia. I know others who have been benefitted by the Syrup. All sufferers should use it." Mrs Sharman adds that after she had doctored and dootored and taken everything, almost without getting any good from it. Mr Webster, a grocer of Glinton, said, Why don't you use Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup?" She acted on his suggestion, and health wasn't long in coming. I cannot speak too highly of Seigel's Syrup," she says. We should agree with her in that opinion, for a remedy that will in a few weeks put an end to a case of chronic indi- gestion and dyspepsia is certainly worth a good word or two. Now here you have these three Englishwomen- one so fortunate as to have lived more than a. cev bar." without an illness; the others (still more foriunate) have known the sadness of suffering and tee pieabuit- of recovery. Ob, my! oh, myl how hard it is to tell who it best off in this queer world.

LLANBADARNFYNYDD. DEATH OF Two FORESTERS.—We have, with much regret, to announce the death of two mArn h" s belonging to Court Pride of the Itbon, No 7450 of the Herefordshire A.O.F. The first is that of Mr William Williams, of Llaithdu, Llanb;.d,.rnfy^.ydd, who pcased away, after a long illness, on Sunday, Jaly 30th. Deceased's funeral took place on the following Wednesday at the Parish Church. Deceased jomed the Court soon after its foundation, and was a faithful forester up to the time of his death. The second is that of Mr Edward Lewia. second son of Mr Lewia Croggia. Llaubister, who died on teun ay, August 27th, at the early age of IS years. R, v. a- full of life and bloom until a few week ago, and the officer.3 of the Court looked forward to many years of usefulness in eonnection with the Court, but, alas, how true i,, that sayinfe, "In t e midst of life we are in death." The funeral t ok place on Thurs- day, at Maesyrhelen Baptiet Chapel, the Rev D Davies officiated at the house, and also at the grave. Deceased had only been a member two months. Both funerals were attended by meutoer* of the Court.-(;owmnkakd.

MOCHDRE Mr S. C. ZUKAS, the Greek Evangelist from A hens, who ias been holding a series of meet ing's at Stepaside Wesleyan Chapel, and also at Penybryn, Do-or, and theCalvinistic Methodist. Chapel, brought his mission to a close on Friday week by delivering a lecture on The Brain at the Wesleyan Chapel to a large and appreciative audience. Mr Ztiras's addresses are characterised by earnestne ss and sim- plicity, and although he has not acquired a complete mastery of English, every address bears the marks of an extensive acquaintance with both classical Greek and modern Continental literature, and: his quotations from Italian and SwittR theologians add a froKhiiees so his expositions which is rarely met with in the autertao but fervid evangelists of our own country.
