The Cost of Weeds. The most ex-
fen ire crop grown by farmers U weeds,
tis not easy to estimate their cost, but
we know that it amounts to many millions
of dollars annually. If their valuo is any
tlkin j, the farmer has seldom been able to
appreciate it. The question of weeds bo
como every year more serious, and their
spread more appalling. Some of the best
farms of the country havo becomo so in
fested with weeds as to yield but poor re
turns. If our present system of culture S
to continue, no one need expect to rapidly
rras a, a fortune at farming. The eradica
tioVof weeds, when they once pet posses
sion of the soil, is somewhat discouraging
to the farmer, especially when neighboring
farms are growing weed crops that furnish
innumerable seeds to be wafted by the
wind and deposited upon the land. Thcro
is scarcely a farmer but fully understands
that a lariro crop of ueiul plants cannot
bo expecte 1 iYoji ground- overrun with
weeds, aud yet many pay but slight atten
tion to subduing these pcjjti. liiev in
crease from year to jcar, until the land be
comes so foul that cren this Tery condition
of things is deemed a sort of excuse to let
them take possesion of the soil. They
become formidable, and men dread to make
the s-ttack, knowing that no weak oppo
cent is to be encountered. Country (Jon-

ono of tho most solemn portions of their

the bodies of their countrymen who may
bo so unfortunate as to tl shuttle off this

several Chinamen camo up here a few
days since, as agents of ono of tho largo
companies below, to exhume a Chinamen
who had been buried somo thrco months
before. Tho dead Chinaman was placed
in a common boot and shoo box, which
was found to bo too small for him, and sev
eral of tho Chinamen had to stamp him
down with their feet; this created a stench
that was almost suffocating at tho distance
of a hundred yards and we are satisfied
that nobody but a Chinaman, in tho per
form an co of a sacred duty, could have
stood it at any closer distance. Af.cr
getting him in the box they threw in
lot of rice and firo-crackcrs and eggs, and
closed up the box. Tho unfortunate
