A CHEA PIA’ EXECUTED AT aving permanently located in Jacksonville, the undersigned re H spectfully informs the public that he I D eterioration of F lour .— An “ Old Miller,” in a recent number of the Hural Home, gives his opinion about the cause of Genesee flourdeteri orating in quality. He says : Thirty years ago no wheat was harvested till fully ripe; consequently the starch and gluten in all wheat sown, being perfectly granulated, was taken up or absorbed by the growing plant, giving it vigor and vitality, leaving the bran outside, clean and clear. Weevil, chinch bug’ &nd winter-killed wheat were yet unknown, and Geneseo wheat or flour stood at the head of the class. Genesee wheat or flour was first complained of in 1817, and the same and only complaint, viz : “ Your wheat and flour works soft and sticky,” stands against it to this day. Farmer* have continued to sow this unripe wheat year alter year, the growing plant taking up what starch and gluten gran ulated, leaving the rest to rot, and the plant, robbed of its natural source of vitality, is left too weak to winter, or to fall a prey to insects, and this degen erated product is again sown, to go its annual round of deterioration. Ripe wheat has a thin, tough bran, and when being ground pulverizes freely, has a soft, silky, elastic feel, giving off a sweet, unpleasant fra grance. Unripe wheat, when dry, has a brittle bran, the meal feels dry and sandy, gives off a smell not unlike green dried corn, and when being used absorbs but little water; the pebbles of flour being hard, the wetting lies on the outside, causing the dough to slip and slide around, and when baked leaves a dry, hard loaf. The ripe flour being elastic and puffy, absorbs and continues to absorb w’hile kneading a large amount of water, and when baked, leaves a light, soft loaf.

Al though now twenty-six years old, he is still able to go on the track. His services are worth $500. This I thought pretty good for a “grasshop I per” country. I saw some fine young Ilambletoni- ans at Ottawa. They were nice look ing animals and good steppers. The thought occurred tome that if some of the Jackson county boys could see them, they would turn out their nags and come to the conclusion that they were not up to the times in breeding trotting stock. In Illinois I visited some of the largest importers of the French horses, (for heavy and general use) and have seen a large number of imported and graded animals of this stock. I also saw some of them in Wisconsin and Ohio. I find that wherever they have been introduced they give satisfaction to those breeding and handling them. It lias been twenty-four years since tbeir introduction into Ohio. Then Mr. C. Fullington brought into that State a three-year old colt, which he purchased while on a visit to France in 1851. This was a new thing in the horse line, and for some time Mr. F. received the ridicule and jeers of his F igures about the P alace .— acquaintances ; but he has lived to see The foreman of construction of the this stock come into public favor from Palace Hotel has been putting together their own intrinsic merits, and they some interesting statistics about the are now known from Maine to Oregon, mammoth edifice.
