Jam, tedcu & Haugrfiall Slifisfe Sweet Potatoes. —"J. V\. <3.' Salem county, New Jersey, send® the Aff'ri * cvlhirist an account of the method he has t ol- ] lowed-for the past 24 years. Fie commences early or, late in April, according to the season. The hot-bed is made by digging a trench 6 leet wide, 2J feet deep, and 1 foot in lengs ih for each bushel of potatoes. The trench is filled with stable litter, well trodden dow- a, and watered with one bucket of warm wat> ir to every 2 feet of bed. A layer of the be st horse manure is spread over this, to the dep th of 4 or 5 inches, and over this 4 or 5 inches of rich soil. The potatoes are then laid upon the soil, nearly touching each other, and are covered with the same kind of soil, to the depth of 11 inch. The whole is then covered with hay, to the depth of 1 foot on the edge, and forming a bed 5 feet high in th e middle of the bed. The heat of the bed is tested at the end of 3 days, by running the arm through the hay, and if the soil is found to be i uore than blood warm, the hole left by the arm is left open, and if the heat continues to increase, the hay is turned over and shaken sip. If the heat increases too violently, take of F the hay put some rails across the bed, and place the hay over them. Be carefnl not to cool the bed too much, as it is difficult to re store the heat if once lost. In 10 or 14 days the bed is uncovered, to give the plants air an d sun. Leave it uncovered for two hours daily, at first, gradually increasing the expose re until past danger of frost, when tbey may be left open night and day. The plants will be ready by May 15. THE T ORIGINAL SECKKL. —The tree from which ail the Seckels have been derive d by a succession of buds and grafts, is a -chance seedling, first discovered by a hwnter, in a meadow upon the banks of the Scbuy lkill, while Philadelphia was still young. We xopy the following account of its present appear ance from the Gardiner's Monthly of tthat city : Would you find it, reader mine, with a tithe" of the bother and time it coat me —then drive i straight to the Point Breeze Race course, (any j sporting friend or fast man can tell you where that is,) follow the narrow lane which skirts it on the east, till a pair of hairs obstruct your further progress ; then inquire' of the inmates of the humble farm-house, jusi over the fence and they will kindly point you to the object of your jouruey. It stands in an open grass meadow, re claimed long years since from the passing waters, surrounded by a plan > substantiul fence of post and rail, erected at the thought ful instance of the late Dr. W. D. Brinckle, as a protection against the depradati on of cattle and the rude root-pruning of the p. low. Like most great historic persi mages, the tree is of small stature, being c nly about twenty-five feet high, compact in t orm, and giving no signs in limb or branch of decrepi tude or decay. Yet the trunk, whicih would measure six feet in circumference, L f sound and entire, is now reduced to a mere a hell of about two inches in thickness, and enci. -cling only the south easterly half; yet, such L t the inherent vigor of this Little monarch am ong pears, that he has survived many a prop . P ut up to sustain his declining years. A sto of oaken scantling, the last of all his support* •, has long since gone the way of all departeo timber, and still the heavy little tree lives on in a green and hale old age. From his crown there have sprung up two thrifty- vigorous shoots, about eight feet each in height, which mayhap, shall hand down his lineage to hu man generations yet unborn. BJLSXNG CHICKENS. —A WORD IN SEASON. — Last year the subject of gapes, especially the method of curing the disease was a good deal discussed in this journal. There is no doubt but the ailement comes from little worms, the iarvae of some fly or other insect, which are found in considerable numbers in the throats of the chickens, and causes their death. These flies or insects no doubt abound about fowl houses and yards, so that keeping the chick ens in places which fowls do not frequent, and where they have not been before kept, goes far toward protecting them from the evil. A correspondent, "Coxsackie," writes as fol lows : "About a year ago I communicated to the Agriculturist acertain mode of treating chick ens to prevent gapes. Since that time I have seen various modes stated to cure the ailment. Now, Mr. Editor, I insist upon it that "an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure." There is no need of having gapes at all. Last year I raised nearly one hundred chickens, and had not a sign ef gapes among them. My method is as follows : When the the chickens are in a condition to take from the nest, I put them with the hen in the coop with a board bottom, so as to keep the young ones from the cold and damp ground. They are fed with Indian meal, on which boiling water is poured from the tea-kettle, well stir red and allowed to cool. I believe the whole secret is to keep the chickens dry and warm when quite young, and give them cooked feed.'' —American Agriculturist. HANDLING SHEEP. —Never seize them by the wool on the back. It hurts them exceed ingly, and in some cases has been known to kill them, particularly in hot weather, when they are large and fat. The best way is to avoid the wool altogether. Accustom your self to catch them by the hind leg, or what is still better, by the neck, placingone hand un der the jaws, and ether just back of the ears. By lifting the head in this manner, a child may hold almost any sheep without danger to the animal or to himself. RAISE THE CALVES.—WE have said it before, and say it again, that the common practice of selling calves to the butcher is one of the poorest pieces of farm-husbandry ever prac ticed. Not that every small former who may have one or two can profitably raise them, but that every farmer who has the keeping, or any legitimate way of getting it, should keep his calves until they are two or three years old. We do not advocate the keeping of any more stock than can be well kept.— Very many of our farmers, by selling their calves have let their stock run out. Now we want such ones to turn overs new leaf. Com mence the raising of your calves. They will gradually increase your stock, and as your stock increases in numbers so will your fields in fertility. THE prospects for wheat out west are very fine. The fields in Ohio are covered with the young wheat, scarcely any of it being winter killed. A good deal more was sown i last fall than usual. _• ■ Qil HATS.—An th. latent u Styles St CHARLES OAKFORD * BOWS CW tiMßtal Hotel, Philadelphia. XT. S. 7-00 LOAN.

These Powders have proved, after a trial of sev eral years, to be superior to any preparation of the kind in use. The chief superiority of these powders arises fioin the fact that they are compos ed of medicines thai have Laxative, Tonic and Purifying properties. The laxative ejects crudi ties from the stomach aud intestines, thetonicgives strength to the system of the Horse, and the puri fying medicines contained in them cleanse the blood, and lay the foundation for a vigorous jand healthy circulation. The use of them improves the wind, strengthens the appetite and gives the horsea fine, smooth and glossy skin—thus improving the appearance, vigor and spirit of this noble animal. These powders are not intended, as most pow ders are to bloat the animal, so as to give him the appearance of being fat when nod really so—hut to remove the disease and promote his general health. These powders will strengthen the stomach and intestines, cleanse them from offensive matter, an 1 bring them to a healthy state. They are a sure pre vention of Lung Fever, and a. certain remedy all diseases incident to the Horse, as Glanders, Yellow Water, Distempers, Founder, Heaves, Sla vering, Coughs, Fevers Loss ol Appetite andYital Energy, Ac.—These powdl-rs, if used two or three times a week, through the winter and spring, your horses will never get the Lung Fever Coric or Botts. A few doses of these powders will re move the worst cough, on any horse. Were own ers of horses to feed a few of these powders every year, they might save the lives of many valuable horses. MILCH COWS. The properties this powder possesses in increas ing the quantity of milk in cows, gives it an im portance and value which should place it in the hands of every person keeping a cow. In fatten ing cattle, it gives them an appetite, loosens their hide, and makes them thrive much faster, HOGrS. In all diseases of spine, as coughs, ulcers in the lungs and liver. Ac., by putting from half a paper to a paper of these powders i 1 a barrel of swill, the above diseases can be cured >T entirely prevented. By using these powders tao hog cholera can be prevented.
