Department. Look to your Orchards. A good orchard is the best investment that can lie made and every farmer should take ad vantage <>f the early Spring to transplant trees and vines of different kinds of fruit. Ripe fruit is the most healthy food we eat. Apples constitute a wholesome change not 011- Iv for man but for domestic animals under his care. Ilogs and cattle can be fattened almost wholly upon apples and yet too many of our farmers are allowing the trees in their orchards to become superanuated without having any young trees to take? their place. Let every one examine his orchard and cut out the dead ones and plant young, thrifty trees in their pla ces. Rut the enterprising and provident far mer will not content himself with merely plant ing apple orchards, though these are the most important, he will plant I'ear, l'lum, Cherry, Peach, Aprieot and Quince trees, lie will find time to cultivate grapes, currants, rasp berries (the last are too much neglected.)— Fruit trees for transplanting ean be purchas ed of nurserymen and the very best kind sho'd lie obtained As much care should be taken in selecting fruit trees as in making choice of stock. The ground should be well prepared and bountifully manured with compost or oth er manure. Orchards are not merely a lega cy transmitted from father to son, but they be come a profitable investment in a few years to the enterprising and skillful proprietor. Ashes for Corn. [From the Dollar Newspaper.] I noticed an article in the "Newspaper" not long since, wherein your correspondent recommends a mixture of ashes, shell, lime, bones, &c., which lie has found valuable for corn, when applied as a top dressing to the hill after planting. We have been in the ha bit of using ashes alone for some years, and have invariably found it of much greater value when put to the hill than on the surface.— Some five years sinee, we had finished plant ing our corn, with the exception of about five acres left for pasture, which we did not plough until the rest was planted. We had put ash es in the hills of all we had planted, and had some three or four bushels left. When we were about half done planting, this rest, 1 re collected the ashes which were left, and im mediately sent for and had tlieiu applied. The rest on both sides had 110 ashes in the hill, but when the corn was some two or three inches high, we obtained enough uuleaehed ashes and applied tliem to the hill on the surface.— The corn came up best where there was 110 ashes, which I have often before and since observed to be the case, ashes oftentimes keep ing the corn back, lint when the corn be came a few inches high, you could observe a change. That on which the ashes were put in the hill, grew evenly and had a fine color, while on either side you would soon find hills, of almost any required size, from the smallest to the greatest, and of almost all varieties of color. The difference continued throughout the season, and it was an easy matter to tell at a glance where the ashes were in the hill from the very row. In this case, the ashes 011 top did no apjnircnt good. lam unable to explain the reason of this, or why a handful of ashes in each hill should make such a marked diffe rence. 1 noticed numbers of small insects 011 the hills, and felt somewhat inclined at the time to think they had something to do with it. Re this as it may, we believe so much in the beneficial effect of ashes in the hill for corn, that we do not if possible to get enough put any more _corn on without them. We use much leached ashes, which we generally with the unleaehed, and find it to as well.— Wc generally add some plaster also. Some are opposed to the practice of ashing in the hill, 011 account of the extra time con sumed while planting, and so prefer putting 011 top at a more leisure time. The proper way to determine where it would be to try each way, side by side. The experience of others may be different from mine. Or diffe rence in soil may cause different effects. Rut my mind is fully made up that the best way for me, is to apply in the hill, all things con sidered, and that will in almost every case pay well. When the corn crop fails, there is generally enough difference in the stalks to make it do so. Or Axo FOR GRASS LAND. —Wc have recent ly conversed with two gentlemen—both prac tical moil and of critical observation—who in formed us that they have now fields in grass, anil yielding good crops, laid down some 5, 6 and 7 years ago, manuring them solely with guano, and receiving little or no manure since, if such were to be the genetal result we might bring up our farms to a wonderful degree of fertility, because a third or one half of the tilling land laid to grass with guano, and pro ducing a full crop for several years in succes sion, would enable us to appropriate all the manure of the farm to flic hoed crops. This would allow of very high manuring, and put the land in such a condition as to produce heavy grass crops without the further appli cation of guano. Rut we need further experi ments, and to test the guano upon its own me rits, bv putting the land into grass without a particle of any manure.— Neic-England Far mer. REMEMBER! —" The more porous and deep er a soil is, the more water it is capable of holding in suspension as a protection against long rainless seasons : and when water is in excess, the surplus portion gradually filters through into the drains below, and passes harmlessly away." These results are obtained by drainage and deep tillage. SELECTION* OF GRAFTS. —Mr. Stowed says that in selecting grafts, take the twigs from those branches which have borne fruit the previous season ; or if you want buds, take from those which have fruit upon them. Rv being careful as to this, you will get fruit, usually in two seasons. RART.EV. —The high price of Rarley. is turn ing the attention of farmers to its cultivation in lieu of oats. F To brojl ham properly, the slices sho'd be first soaked in hot water, dried in a cloth and broiled 011 a gridiron over a clear lire.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH, AND DIRECT & TO & FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE. TAMES HARRIS, Ei.kctkicivn. Of Towanda, respect fully informs the public that he has lately procured from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath, which has proven to be one of the most 'important and wonderful discoveries, of the age, from its ability to extract minerals from the human system. Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco vered the process of extracting minerals front the bodv, by galvanism ; more recently. M. Verges, of New York, an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of poisonous minerals into his sj-stem in the prosecution of his art, conceived tic id.-a of removing them by the same processes, he succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered. lie then applied the same means tu others -iniilurly af fected, with like results. His success exceeded his most sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove mineral poisons, but cured many diseases, some of which were the result of minerals, and some were not. More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sin gular power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi nerals that may be lodged therein, to the great detriment of health. Very often persons are afflicted by diseases which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine rals accumulating in the system for years, taken in the shape of calomei, lead, Ac. Ac. The following arc some of the diseases cured by these baths: Rheumatism, Paralyses. I'alsy, Painter's *<'lndie. Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer. Ncuralia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all kinds. Ho lias also S. R. Smith's newly invented DIRECT AND TO-AND ER() ELECTKt) M A<. N"ETIC MAt HIN E. which is a great improvement on the Magnetic m.n bines hereto fore in use. With the aid ot' the Bath and Machine, we have at command all the" available medical efficiency of Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is very great, in introducing medicines into the system through the pores of the -kin—applying it directly to Hie parts af fected, which gives an increase of medicinal power over that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular ly efficacious in all local diseases. 1 am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the Machines, at my house in the south part of the borough of Towanda, or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are unable by reason of disease to come to thi- place, at mo derate prices. i am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the above Machines.
