Tho Convention of millers of tho United Ktatoa was lately in aesaion, and its proceed1 inga wcro Very intcreatingi wo publish below 'what they concluded rclatlvu to tho best varieties of wheat rained hero for milling purpose t Mr. Hlllmrd, Vice President of tho Kngli.h delegation of millers in attendance, in an ad ilrcM, complimented tho grain-grower of tho United States, and Nild a high tribute to .American Winter wheat. Ho saidi Your Winter wheat wo value very highly in our country, and wo llnd they inako a very largu percentage) of flour of splendid quality. J do nol think that wo are Importing any other wheat from any other part of tli. world no good. There waa a committee appointed to report nn tho "best grain for milling purposes," and awi that rcKrt discusses quite fully, and from tho millers' standpoint, thorciativo merrit of a largo rango of kind of wheat, and tho chToct or change produced on tho varieties by different soils and climate, questions very Important to every grain farmer, wo givo tho report in'fullt Your commitU-o to whom wa referred tho aubjoct of "drain for Milling" havo had tho matter under consideration, and, after getting together all tho information possible in tho liriut time we havo had tho subject before us, iMpcctfully submit the following report! In the first pi see, w o havo nut w ith much tlitllculty in determining which i tho best wheat for lulling in tho United States, ou ac count of tho vast extent of wheat-growing dis tricts, extending through tweuty-.tlirre do grow of latitude and fifty-seven degree of lougitude, having a length of 12,800 miles and n breadth of 1,700, covering an area of 3,i!V), 000 Mjuaro miles, embracing all the Ktatcs in the Union but three, and tho entire Terri tories, with every variety of soil and climate. Wo find the same varieties of wheat grown Su different Htatee, while possessing tho same geueruL properties, differing materially in value for milling, Tho Fife wheat of Northern Minnesota and Dakota Is' far superior to the same variety Krown (u Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois. ' Tlt'e Houghton or Tappalianuock wheat of Virginia, Tvunesee and (Ivorgia I much more rich in gluten than the same kind grown In Indiana, Ohio or Illinois. We also find a great diversity of opinion a to the merits of particular kind of wheat (ruwn in same localities, making it a difficult matter for your committee to dttermlno which re really tho most desirable varieties for milling purpose. We ai e of the opinion that a general dis cussion at this mrctiug of tho .Association, where Ml tli largo wheat district are hilly-' represented, will do more to settle which are the most desirable wheat to use than any report your committee would U able to make. From the information ltcfnra vniir winlHu mostly' obtained by correspondence, we flud tut followiug varieties among the best for milling purpose! Wiutar' wh--Lorujbrry amber, Lancas ter, Indian rtJ, 'Alabama,' orange, velvet ckaff, BoughtouorTappahaimock, Jenning. Bjwinf wheat MfuneeoU Fife, China, Mammoth or Klo GraiuL. Thelrberry amber to extensively grown iu Virginia, which, with the LoucotUr, is tnot sought by mlllert, blnt rjCB j glnU and poaaeeaing propertl. very UwiraUe for hinting to vara climate. The Indian red l epoksn highly of a a flu glutluou wbeati also, the Alabama, the Ut tec but little' raited, vwlg to It, light yield 4teccrt Tho Jenning is a white wheat, hard, givea exccllct color and good strength. Tlre" orango 'makes a good family flourj ' of fair strength and yield well in flour. The velvet chaff possesses good strengh, and yield fairly in flour, ia an early variety, grow a stiff straw, and ia well adapted to strong and and rich coils, whero most variolica would pro duce too rank straw and lodge. Tho Bonghton or Tappahannock ia highly spoken of In some localities, while iu other it i not considered a desirable wheat, not par ticularly rich in gluten, but make a good family flouri is easily damaged by moisture. The Fultz and Clawson are taking tho lead with farmers, yielding largely, but aro very undesirable for millers, being soft and weak, and containing littlo gluten compared with the first named varieties. The Claws ton' is used somewhat to mix with damp, strong wheat. In spring wheat tho Minnesota Fife i in comparably tho best of any spring variety. It ia rich In gluten, very hard and yields im mensely in middling for purification and manufacture into patent flour; it is essentially a "bread-making" wheat, producing a largo number of pounds of finest bread from a fixed number of pounds of flour. Tide wheat ia grown extensively in tho Northwest, attain ing it greatest perfection in extrcmo northern latitude, particularly in Minnesota and Dako ta. In Wisconsin and Iowa it is much the best spring wheat grown, Tho Hio Grande, China, or Mammoth, ia a largo-berried, heavy wheat, yielding well in flour, and next to Fife in glu tenons properties', is particularly adapted to weak lands having a rank growth of straw, and standing drought remarkably. Tho Canada Club wo consider tho next best spring variety, but is soft; mike nn excel lent family Hour when strength i not a partic ular object. The Lost Nation or Prussian Fifo wo con sider the poorest spring wheat grown, having a thick bran, very soft, weak in gluten, not even making n whito flour. It ia grown exten sively in Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota, yielding well, and ia considered by farmcra as iK-tng safer of a crop than Minnesota Fife, China or Club. 1 ' i A Proposed Agricultural Collet. At a meeting of the Farmers' Club on tho 1st inst., at their rooms in Cooper Union, this city, it waa proposed to establish an agricul tural college somewhere near Now York City perhaps on long Island in which to teach tho scienro nnd practice of farming and gardening to young men frco of charge Aa an Initiatory step n largo committee on organ ization was appointed. In a speech on tho subject, Dr. A. It. Lcdoux, formerly of the North Carolina Experiment Station, saidi "Let us select 1,000 acres of good laud within an hour' rido of tho city, and stock it with model house and tools. Let thcro bo a practical dairy, conducted on tho most ap proved plan, n model barn, greenhouse, mu seum, etc. Let thcro bo frco instruction in farm and garden) in the euro of stock and in dairy work. Let thcro be furnished rooms which student of agriculture may occupy and pay for by work. Let thero be established In conjunction with this fluid work, but in tho city, frco evening lecture by the most emi nent professor on tho chemistry, llotauy, Zoology, Kntomologr, and Physiology of tho farm work and farm life. Let theso also bo supplemented by lectures on agriculture, etc., nnd to tlx.au lecture let all Ik) invited. "Wliat will bo the result?

Through tho chemical analysis of the '.Station,' wo can be protected in ourpurchoso of fertilizers, and cau learn tho quality of our mils, marls, peat, water, feeding. stuffs, cto.

(New York Time. Seper atUtr the Wheat This year's crop of wheat In California will probably U oa apottod a any crop ever har vested in the State. Very few section, or HeliU even, havo escaped the effect of the northern wind blast. Good, plump wheat, andwheatlualmosteveryitageofshrinkagewill be found on almot every farm. Now, tiuca the character and class of wheat in market is affected more by the poor grains that are iu it tlianby the plump oues, it become a very ini portant matter to the fanner to exercise mat care to (eiwrate hi L-ood from his shnm. ken wheat, litis con bo done moro effectual ly whilo cutting Uian at any other stage of the honest work. In cutting the gralu, whether with header or mower, let the best and plumpest portion of the field be cut first, leaving the bloated spot to be rut and stalked thrashed MporaUly, Uy exercising and care in thi direction much expense can lie saved in the cleaning and separating with the fan-mill after thrashing, Hut by all meau separate the good from the poor grain, and keep the Iota separate, o a not to lose ou the whole crop U poneqeoe of the fceeep.ee of a avdlperraitagetfuuiuarkeUblewhjsat.

A FEW WORDS ON ORAPES. IMitor Willamette Farmcri I havo seen nothing in tlio Kaiimeii for a lung timo on grapes.
