When to Buy a Farm.
Very few persons seem to know that
the months of June and July are the
best in the year in which to look for
or purchase a farm. At this season
one can judge whether the land can or
does produce good crops ; for, if it is
rich the waving grass and grain will
be an ocular demonstration of the
fact ; and if there is, according to the
stereotyped assertion, an abundance of
choice fruit,it can be seen at this time
to the best advantage. The lowlands
will show whether they are really dry
enough for pastures in summer, and
the upland its capacity for withstand
ing a drought. If there are any mos
quitoes about they will generallymake
their appearance known at this time
if ever, and by observing the children
in the neighborhood one can deter
mine whether the locality is healthy or
otherwise.
) Summer iF also a good time to view
the neverfailing spring and the trout
pond near by, and a draught from the
-one and a lunch from the other are at
tractions which those who possess
them seldom fail to bestow upon those
who are likely to become a purchaser.
Even the weeds on a farm assist a man
in determining its value; for if noth
ing but stunted ragweeds and five—
finger are to be seen, then the land
may be set down as poor indeed ; but
if burdock and catnip abound,it shows
strength to produce crops of a high
order.
The pasture and meadow, orchard
and garden, all show what they are
and what may be expected of them in
these months ; but earlier or later the
aspect of things may change. In the
spring the trees may not have shown
leaves, flowers or fruit ; the roads are
muddy, if ever ; and the distance
from -the farm to the railroad station
-.appears to le much greater than it
actually is, especially to a stranger.—
In autumn the leaves are turning yel
low, the grain has been gathered, the
fruits are nearly gone ; still the air is
fresh and the landscape glewing with
autumn tints; but the valuable pro
ducts of a farm, which are its pro
ducts, are mainly out of 'sight, being
stored in the barn or in the proprie
tor's pocket.
Bedding Horses in Sawdust.
A late issue of the London Field
contains the result of an experiment,
the feasibility of which says: " Hav
ing used sawdust as bedding for hor
ses for a length of time, the results of
my experience may not be unaccepta
ble to some of your inquiring readers.
I litter my horse on it to the depth of
five or six inches, raking off the damp
and solid surface every morning, and
spreading evenly a little fresh,remov
ing the whole only four times a year.
Its advantages appeared to be many,
of which I will state a few which give
it, in my estimation, its greatest su
periority over straw. It is much clean
er and more easily arranged, and of
course much cheaper at first cost,
making in the end excellent manure.
It is peculiarly beneficial to the feet,
affording a cool, porous stuffing,a sub
stitute for the soil or earth we always
find in the hoofs of a horse at grass,
and present the resemblance . to the
horses' footing—the earth.
"We have never had a diseased
foot since the introduction of sawdust
in the stable, now some years since.
Horses bedded on sawdust are also
freer from dust stains than when on
ordinary litter (simply because saw.
dust is a better absorbent, perhaps),
and testify their own approval of it by
frequently rolling and lying down for
ibours in the day. It has also the fee
,omrn.endation of being unedible—an
; advantage which all in charge of hor
ses with the habit of consuming their
jitter, will rezdily admit. Being free
from pungent smell, which is apt to
accompany straw (unless scrupulously
kept) it is innocent to weak eyes, and
its slight turpentine odor is rather a
sweetener than otherwise. It makes
:(when converted into manure) the
test possible foundation for hot-beds,
and unlike other stable manure,forms
no harbor or refuge for vermin. Pine
sawdust is the best, and oak the
worst, as the latter turns black on the
i second day."
'OYSTER shells and lime marls are
very beneficial to soils which have
been repeatedly and severely cropped.
Lime marls, especially, are valuable.
They contain phosphorus and ammo
nia, both of which properties the soil
must have to produce wheat. The
shell and marl can be burned like
limestone, and hauled on the fields
and slacked, when they are finely pul
verized, and can be evenly distributed
.over the field. This lime should be
used only as a top-dressing and har
rowed in, as it has a tendency to sink
into the soil.
THE disease known as diptheria in
,chickens may be cured easily by the
following method : Take a small
wooden paddle and remove the yel
low matter from the tongue, and then
Apply lard and black pepper to the
diseased parts. A single application
.is generally sufficient, and a second is
always sufficient.
WHITEWASH is all right in its
place—and it is in its place on fences
and out buildings, hut it is not in its
place when it is on trees, where we
have seen it in several orchards and
door yards. Don't try to make the
trunks of your trees look like fence
posts
The Potato Mania.
What has it all amounted to? Has
all the high prices and careful culture
done anything for us except to show
the utter folly of people paying a dol
lar per pound for any of them at any
time ? One-tenth that price would
have been their full value. What has
become of the Monitor, the Harrison,
the Early Goodrich,the Garnet-Chili,
the Cusco,the Rusty-Coat and half a
dozen others? Not one of them can
come within a mile of the Peach-Blow,
either the pink or white variety.
A writer in the Prairie Farmer, re
siding inGrundycounty, Illinois, speak
ing of his potato crop,last year, says:
"My early potatoes did not do well
last season; the hot weather of June
and July was too much for them. But
my Peach-Blows yielded me over two
hundred bushels an acre. Whenever
my boys and I saw statements in the
paper of large yields of single hills, of
Early Rose or any other of the fancy
potatoes,we weighed the best hills dug
for table use,and found that we were
ahead nearly every time. Hence, •we
have not taken stock in the mania for
the new sorts,preferring to wait until
we see whether the men who cultivate
them can beat the old-fashioned
Peach- Blows. "
We do not wish at this time to ex
press au opinion of the Early Rose,as
we know too little about it. We think,
however, that it is likely to prove a
gocd early variety,and should it main
tain permanently its present character
for productiveness, and its excellent
quality as a table esculent,though it
be only up to the first of January, we
, should unhesitatingly pronounce it a
great acquisition. With the Rose for
an early and the Peach-Blows for a
late variety, should they all escape the
rot, we would cheerfully be content.—
Germantown Telegraph.
Does Clover or Timothy Cause Rust on
Wheat ?
Upon this subject a correspondent
of the Rural Gefalenzan says :
This is a question a that has for a long
time agitated the minds of intelligent
farmers, but it has been settled to my
mind, at least, by a series of experi
ments. lam satisfied that it does in
at least ninety-five cases out of a hun
dred.
I have sown the wheat with and
without the grass seed, and have nev
er seen rust when there was no grass,
whilst in the eame field the rust has
effected the wheat. The grass holds
the dampness of the roots of the
wheat, and when the sun shines out
very warm, produces the blight. Be
sides the wheat standing alone will
produce five bushels more to the acre
than when the grass is sown. I mean,
now, that this will be the average dif
ference.
But the question arises : NY hen
shall the grass be sown ? I answer :
After the wheat harvest, plow the
field and prepare it smoothly and sow
the grass seeds of whatever kind you
desire, and your crop of grass the
coming season will be equally as good
if not better, than if sown with the
wheat.
Farmers, try the above, and my
word for it, the result will be satisfae-
tory
Roillig Grain in The Spring.
If farmers would look at the theory
of rolling the wheat and rye fields in
the spring.says the Germantown Tel
egraph,it would be resorted to much
more frequently than it is. Occasion
ally the winter and spring have been
so favorable to these crops as not to
render it necessary. But in three
seasons out of four it is necessary,and
doubtless adds considerable to their
productiveness. The thawings and
the freezings of the ground, throwing
or spewing out the roots and exposing
them to the drying winds of February
and March,very seriously affect the
grain. Passing a roller over as soon
as the soil is fit to enter upon, presses
back the roots into their beds, and
gives them a fair grip again upon the
support on which the crop must de
pend. This must be apparent to every
one who will look at its operation.
We have no doubt that rolling clover
fields that have been badly thrown up
by the frost,would also have a most
beneficial effect.
Value of Cabbages.
For several weeks past large and
round cabbage-heads have been selling
for thirty and forty cents each; many
of which would scarcely fill a peck
measure. Allowing each cabbage to
occupy, while growing, a superficial
area of nine feet, 4840 cabbages may
be grown on one acre, which, if sold
for only ten cents per head, would
amount to $484 for the produce of
. a
single acre. The amount of manure
requisite for one acre, together with
the expence incurred in cultivation.
would not exceed slso,thus leaving a
clean profit of $334 per acre. For men
at a distance from New-York could
appropriate two or three acres of their
richest land to cabbage,and thus make
three or four times as much as they
do. Every plant needs a quart or two
of good compost deposited where the
roots may feed on is.
HOME-MAZE GllANO. — Collect a
barrel of bones, crush them ; mix
with a barrel of oak or hickory ashes;
moisten with soap-suds, apply a quart
or two as a special fertilizer on mel
ons, squashes, early corn and cucum
bers: allowing a gill to a hill.
THE California wheat crop is so
large that, if mistakes are not made,
it has never been equalled in any
country. They talk of 75, 80, and in
one case 100 bushels per acre.
MISCELLANEOUS
A MERICAN BUTTON-HOLE
OVER-SEAMING AND SEWING MA-
CHINE COMBINED
MEDAL AWARDED AT THE PARIS EX-
POSITION, 1867
In directing attention to the celebrated
COMBINATION BUTTON HOLE AND
SEWING MACHINE, we feel fully warran
ted in claiming for it unquestionable superi
ority over all others as a Family Machine.—
The Simplicity, Ease and Certainty with
which it operates, as well as the uniform ex
cellence of its work, certainly place it far i
advance of any other similar invention of the
age.
It is also the deapcst,intrinsically, as well
as the best, since it is really two machines
combined in one, (by r simple and beautiful
mechanical arrangement never before ac
compHshed by human ingenuity,) making
either the Lock Stitch or Button Hole Stitch,
as occasion may require. It is, at the same
time, simple in construction, comparatively
noiseless, easily understool, and, in a ward,
it combines with those advantages exclusive
ly its own the most desirable qualities of all
others, for it not only does every variety
of sewing in a SUPERIOR. MANNER, but
in addition OVERSEAMS splendidly and
makes beautiful BUTTON aad EYELET HOLES
in all fabrics. This is far beyond the ca
pacity of any other machine.
The SPLENDID MEcnerrism of this Machine,
and the superior skill workmanship and fin
teriats employed in its construction; are a
guarantee of.accuracy, strength and dura
bility, and enable the company and its agents
to Warrant Every Machine they sell to give
entire satisfaction. •
INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN ON THE 111 -

Lessons may be taken if desired with. a
view to test the Machine, or to become bet
ter acquainted with it before deciding to pur
chase. Samples of work will be furnish
