WEDNESDAY MORNING, June 9,'69.
Humbugs and Sharpers.
Tbere are, at the present time a
great many men trying to live by their
wits instead of honest labor. They
are engaged in the manufacture of ar
ticles " needed in every household,"
which once known "no one will will
ingly do without." Or, they set to
work to produce perpetual motion, or
some other machine that will enable
them to make a fortune in a day. Or
they will take up some old and dis
carded variety of fruit or potato, or
some other seed ; which, under a new.
name, they palm off on the credulous.
Or they will take a load of stoves,
which they will sell with "all the fur
niture complete," but, which furni
ture they could nct bring along, be
cause of the heavy roads, or heavy
loads : they will agree to take a note
for the full price of the stove and fur
-niture, which note is always traded off
or sold to second parties, and has to
he paid at maturity, or the cost of a
law-suit added. Of course the furni
ture(which was to come along in a few
, days) never conies, and the stove cost
double its worth, and the scoundrels
who did the swindle -are never to
be found. We sometimes feel sorry
to see innocent and confiding parties
thus taken in : and again we feel and
say, "Served him right—he ought to
have known better !"
The best way for our readers to do
is, to order their goods from respec
table. and well-known establishments,
who are permanently located and who
have a reputation at stake, and let
all itinerant agents and peddlers se
verely alone. If a man offers you an
article of any kind which you can ex
amine at the time, and which you
reed (if you do not need it, it will he
dear at any Price)—purchase, if you
are so inclined ; but on a future de
lively, give 'no obligation. only as the
article is delivered and comes up to
the recommendations.
Spring is the time when sharpers
from the city will, like the locusts of
Egypt, come, down on the country,
and devour every green thing. - We have
known farmers who purchased rare
and costly fruit trees, shrubs and flow
ering plants, of which beautifully col
ored plates were shown, only to find
them old and worthless sorts sold un
der a new name. " Far fetched and
dear bought," will apply to all such.
Another dodge is, the sale of pat
cut rights.. Farmers ought to leave
such things alone, became, generally,
they are not familiar with inventions
nor inventors—who, if they have a
really good thing, knoW enough tC; go
into the manufacture of the same and
make the most of their discovery. So,
also, in the purchase of farm machin
ery; and the great importance of
making a judicious selection, es
pecially since farmers have become so
dependant upon machinery, justifies
the occupation of a little extra space
to offer a few special suggestions.—
The disposition to cling to old and
well tried implements is commenda
ble, and while too much care cannot
be exercised in exchanging that which
seems to have rendered good service,
for a more improved machine, the
farmer ought not shut his eyes to the
fact that defects in his old may be re
mained in the new machine. Improve . -
ment—genuine and substantial—is the
order of the day, and those who ig
nore the progressive tendencies of the
age will soon be left behind by those
who turn every new development to
their advantage.
Especially care ought to be taken
to get good machinery. By this we
mean, that which is good mechanical
ly. It is far better to pay a little ex
tra and get an article that will last a
life time than to buy-because it seems
cheap—that which at best can't last
but a few years. Good farm machin
ery can't be built on cheap princzples,
and those who understand their inter
ests will get the BEST, let it cost what
it may.
POULTRY IN LARGE NUMBERS.-
The London Field lately had an article
on the thilures that seem to have uni
versally occurred in attempts to keep
fowls in large numbers. In conclu
sion it says :
There are two reasons for this inev
itable result; one is, that when a large
number of fowls are crowded together
or kept in one place, the - ground be
comes tainted with manure, and dis—
ease invariably breaks out. This is
more particularly true of chickens,for
in every attempt to, rear a large num
ber in a confined space, the mortality
is excessive.
The employment of an incubator in
this climate will always be found a
failure, for this simple reason that it
is impossible to rear the chickens
when they have been hatched ; the
hatching process is sufficiently easy;
but chickens are of no value whatever
without you have hens to brood them.
The only manner in which an-incuba
tor can be usefully employed is by
hatching an extra number of eggs so
.as to give each hen a full brood of
chickens. Used in this way we have
known small incubators very service
able ; but when employed to hatch
chickens that are to be reared by ar
tificial mothers, we have never seen
them used with advantage.
To WASH CALICO WITHOUT FA
DING .—lnfuse three gills of salt in four
quarts of water ; put the calico in
while hot and leave it till cold, and in
this way the colors are rendered per
manent, and will not fade by subse
quent washing.
EINVNESS TO HORSES.-A writer
in the ilme . ican ,S'fock Journal, dis
cussing and &flouncing the cruelty
practiced by men called "horsemen,"
says : •
A gentleman of New York is the
possessor of a thousand-dollar horse,
whose organ of approbativeness is so
prominently active he can be coaxed,
but rarely driven against his will.—
When the considerate owner enters
the stable the horse greets him with
a hearty whinny, his only language,
which is equivalant to a cheerful ex
pression of delight. He is at once
treated to a lump of sugar, which the
beautiful and sagacious creature
knows is usually carried in a vest
pocket— for he rubs his noso there.—
On returning from a drive he expects
two lumps. As two are invariably
forthcoming when unharnessed, it is_
unmistakable evidence to the horse
that his conduct and efforts were sat
isfactory. The sight of a whip to that
animal would be an insult and an out
rage to his affectoinate regard for one
who looks carefully to his health, se
curity and conifort. Such an instru
ment of barbarity does not belong to
that good man's carriage, and may
GOD speed the incoming day when
they will only be seen in museums, to
illustrate the conditions of countries
that ultimately became Christianized.
A SEASONABLE HINT.-It may be
of service to some of our readers to
remind them, that any time this and
next monththey can Layer their shrub
bery, vines,ro.i.es, &c., while they are
in the prime of their growth. The
several spireas, weigalla, Forsythes,
Chinese glacine clematis, tecon3a,py
rus japonica, honey-suckles, &c., &c.;
and in the fruit the grape and the
raspberry that do not propogate them
selves readily, like the Catawissa and
American purple and some red varie
ties,.&c., can all be extensively in
creased in this way. The Catawissa
raspberry costs at present about, 25
cents per stalk ; and a person having
half a dozen can produce fifty the
next season by aiding nature in this
way. So it is with grapes, the dear
est kinds of which with a little labor
and care can he increased four=fold
yearly, Some varieties of the grape
can be propogated easily—like the
Hartford Prolific, Concord,Teleg,raph,
&c. ; others are very difficult, as the
Delaware, Diana, &c.
Those who have have not hereto
fore increased their shrubs,vines,&c.,
as here suggested, should attempt it
the present season ; and if the thing
is attended with ordinary care, they
will be surprised and gratified at their
success.—Germantown Tel.
TRAINING COLTS.-A correspondent
of the Western Rural says :
" My mode of training colts is this :
I first halter them and put them in
the stable. I curry them gently each
day; place the harness on them and
let them on for a few hours each day
for a few days. After they have be
come accustomed to the harness, 1
place them before an empty wagon
and drive them about a few hours
each day for a number of consecutive
days. After they are sufficiently sub
dued, so that I can hitch and unhitch
them at will, I use them harrowing
in grain, and alllight work the first
season."
We should be glad to rebeive prac
tical articles from horsemen on this
subject.
GREAT POULTRY SITOW IN ENG—
LAND.—The most successful poultry
shows of this country are small affairs,
in size at least, compared with some
held in England. ht a late exhibi
tion at Birmingham, England, there
were 2747 pens or coops of fowls. Of
gray Dorkings alone there were 272
coops, and of games 482 coops, with
153 coops of game Bantams. Some
choice birds were valued at very high
rates. ALa Fleche cock was held at
£25, and some of the Dorkings as
high as £lOO. Some heavy weights
are reported. The prize gander,Tou
louse, weighed 37-1 pounds ; the prize
pair of ducks, Rouen,l9 , l pounds; the
prize turkey, 33 pounds. It can safe
ly be said there is a poultry fever in
England equal to anything we have
here.
LEAKY TEATS IN COWS.-" J. C."
Columbus, Ohio, wites to the An
Agriculturist as follows :
"I have a valuable cow that loses
her milk ; at times it runs from her
in streams. Will you give me a rem
edy ?"`. "
Ans.—Milk three times a day, say
at five in the morning, at noon,and at
eight in the evening. If this does not
stop it, have a little collotion, (which
is gun cotton dissolved in ether) to be
had of all druggists or photographers,
and put a drop upon the end of each
teat after milking, being careful not
to touch it to a sore spot, or the cow
will kick. The hole need not be coy
ered'except in extreme cases, for a
little ring of collodion will shrink in
drying and draw the hole together.
OUT OFF THE LEAVES.—AImost
every one who has had any experi
ence in gardening knows the impor
tance of pruning newlY planted trees.
But in transplanting cabbages, beets,
tomatoes and similar vegetables, few
ever think of taking off any of the
leaves, an operation fully as impor
tant as the reduction of the branches
of an apple or a pear tree. Let every
- one who is about setting out any of
the seculant plants try the cutting off
of the larger leaves,and we think they
will never omit it again,--Ilearth and
Rome.
SEWING AI CHINE
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 euperi
ortty over all others as a Faniily 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 eheapcst,intrinsically, as well
as the best, since it is really two machines
combined in one, (by a simple and beautiful
mechanical arrangement never before ac
complished 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 understood, and, in a word,
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 BUTT3N wad EYELET ROLES
in all fabrics. This is far beyond the ca
pacity of any other machine.
The SPLENDID MECHANISM of this Machine,
and the superior skill workmanship and ma
terials 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 TUE MA-
CHINE GRATUITOUSLY
Lessons may be taken if desired with a
view to test the Machin . e, or to become bet
ter acquainted with it before deciding to pur
chase. Samples of work will be furnish
