atotCcuiturnl, From the Farm Journal. Another Remedy for the Grain Weevil in Barns. MR. EDITOR :—ln looking over the July No. of the Farm Journal, I noticed an inquiry ironi Mr. A. Owen, of Hunt ingdon county, Pa., in regard to the de struction of the wheat weevil. Although Mr. Owen is rather late in making an inquiry to save the present crop, 1 shall, however, give him my opin ion and experience in the destruction ot that anoying foe. My barn for a numbgr of years had been infested with weevils, and having sustained like Mr. Owen's neighbor, a considerable loss from their ravages, I de termined to wage an exterminating war fare against the enemy. To accomplish this, I tried different remedies, but with out effect. I finally concluded to starve them as the dernier resort. Accordingly, two years ago I stacked all tny wheat and rye out, put nothing into the barn but hav and oats, and the cure was effectual ; for since that time, there is not a weevil to be found. 1 would further state that before putting the hay in the barn, it should be swept clean, in order to disturb the wee vils as much as possible. There are also other remedies recom mended by different writers such as strew ing portlv branches between the layers while mowing the grain, and white-wash ing the inside of barns, or mixing lime and salt in threshed grain, <tc., but my own experience proves to me there is nothing like starving them. Yours, Ate., SAHCEL M CMIIA. Locust Grove Farm, Dauphin Co., Pa. Milk. This liquid is secreted in special organs of the female mammalia, for the nourish ment of the young, and it necessarily con tains all the ingredients required for this object. It contains insoluble matter held in mechanical suspension. It is a solution of a small quantity of different salts, with a considerable proportion of sugar of milk, and a nitrogenous substance named cheese or casein. A number of small globules of fat of different sizes suspended in it, they can only be discerned bv the microscope. 1 he salts ot milk which amount to about -ne per cent, of the whole, are the phos phate of lime, phosphate of magnesia, phos phate ot iron, chloride of potassium, chlor ide of sodium and soda. The soda holds the casein in solution. Pure casein is not soluble in water ; its combinations with the alkalies, however, are very soluble. The addition of a small quantity of acid separates the soda from the casein, and this ; makes thickened milk, the curd being no longer in solution with the alkali. Casein is the most abundant substance in die milk. ' After the casein is precipitated there is a sugar in the remaining liquid or whey ; this is the reason it has a sweeter taste than even the pure milk. This is the only su gar generated in the process of animal life. It requires three parts of boiling water and twice as much cold water to dissolve it. The sugar of in ilk is easily converted into lactic acid ; it is owing to this quality that the cidity of sour milk is due. It has been found by experiment that a cow fed upon grass yields a greater quan tity of milk than if fpd on any other food, far as a series of regular experiments afford any data for conclusions, that kind of food which contains the greatest quanti ty of nitrogen, always yields the greatest quantity of milk, and the best kind of it. lor it also contains the greatest quantity of butler, and this is not a little singular, for hutter contains no nitrogen. It is not a good plan to feed cows on a uniform diet, lor experiments have proven that the \ ield of milk, by such a system of diet, gradual ly diminishes, it is therefore a good rule to change the food ol milch cows frequently. I lie milk obtained from cows in the morning is generally richer than that ob tained at evening. It has been found that certain pasture grounds are much better than others for the production of rich milk. \V e believe that this subject, oi good gra zing grounds, has not received that atten tion which it demands. There is certain ly as much dilierence in the grass, herbs, in certain pasture lands, as there is in different kinds of food. As acid is the cause of souring milk, and as the result of it becoming acidulous is a complete separation of the casein from the other parts, it has been suggested that the addition of some alkali, such as soda or salaeratus, might render sour milk sweet. The truth is, that the addition of an extra quantity of alkali is just about as great an evil as an excess of acid, it is the perfect solution of the fatty parts of milk with the alkali in it, which imparts that tine flavor to it when newly taken from the animal, if some pearlash be dissolved in warm wa ter, and some pure sweet olive oil be pour ed into it and well stirred, the liquid will become thick, white, and milky in appear ;*ice, and will also possess a flavor much like that of sweet milk. In home paris of our country there has been very severe droughts this summer, especially in the State oi Maine. It is elat ed that the hay only hall a crop, and that farmers will have to sell a great deal of their stock before the winter sets in. I hose of our farmers who have milch cows should use less hay for food than they now do. Cabbages, beans, linseed, barley, po tatoes, and hay, should be given to "every milch cow during our winter seasons at the north. These kinds of food can be varied so as to have a change every week. Every farmer should have a steaming .ap paratus in his barn yard ; and plenty of pure air and good drinking water are as necessary as good food for the health of milch cows, and the production of a supe rior quantity of good milk.

We would earnestly say to all who are atHn 1.*.! w hh this dialrt ing disease, to get one box and try tliem. and in all cases, two boxes are warranted In eure. if taken according to the directions, or the money returned. These pills not only perform a perfect curt in three day s, but remove the bile and create a healihv ictinn oi the liver, sn l consequently fortify the system against a future attack. A LSO, My Vegetable lutl-Djrsfrpxia liittrrx. This Medicine is a certain cure for D.sp. psia in its very worst forms. Thousands < f cases hove been com pb-ielv , lired by it within the last year, which tn\ Keen entirely despained of by the rngulii family physi cians. We do not recommend it to cure everything u ■ rei-ommei.il ii to cure Dy.-pepi t,and the d seas. - . rigi n-iting fri i t it, and that it will cure in almost every t as.-, and It 1- recommended for nothing else. In many in stances, even the worst of cases have been conipleleU cured in i wo and tliree months, but it depends somewhat npon the rwiisti-utiigi of the patient We won! I „uv 1,, all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine a lan trial, and if it tails tu do good, your money wili be rolurited. A LSO, My Vegetable Worm Powders. This is the most wonderful Worm Destrorer ever j known, and at the same lime, so pleasant to take, that almost every child vv 1!t be fond of ii, and many instances have baen known of children crying for more after once 1 taking it. This medicine is in the form of a powder, the only medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a principle entirely different from any other medicine cvei administered by any ether physician. It is the only medicine which lias no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine combined with it, which is believed by all other physi ciar.s, to be the only two things which will destroy worms, and these two things combined, togeiher with castor oil, are tile active principles of all other worn; j medicines, which every person v. bo has ever tasted or sinelled, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous medicines, and 00 acrount of which, there is generally something added 10 destroy this nauseous taste, and iu order to do this, it must be something stronger than the medicine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy some of its medicinal properties. These powders are simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a whole ho; at once, and U will not be hurl, while at the. same time, j the principle upon which it acts being diflerent from any thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy the seat worms, or Ascarides, and lone, round worms,or Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person If your children have any symptoms of worms, trv these powders, and 111 nine cases out of ten, you witl nev er use any other. These are also warranted. These medicines are all separate, aud one for each dis ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re commended, as many other medicines are, to cure some fifteen or twenty diseases, and all of different natures, but they are each t cure but one disease, and tFat they will do in ninety -nine cases outof every hundred, and where they have a fair trial and fail in ail caseY, lilt money will be returned.
