WRITTEN FOR THE BEDFORD INQtJIRBR. ■'■ TUB roBN tw •* * In the midst of the planting season, the farmer will do well to remember that his profits, on this most important crop, depend more upon thorough cultivation, than upon the extent of surface planted. It is a great mistake, made by very many, to go on plan ting and adding acre to acre, until the dose | of the planting season, without a thought as to future cultivation. There is no other crop, the profits, of which, depend so much upon thorough tillage. The field, that will scarcely produce forty bushel to the acre with slovenly Culture, may be made to pro duce from sixty to one hundred bushels with the little additional labor required to culti vate and keep it dean after planting.— Drouth will sometimes almost destroy a corn crop carelessly tilled, when deep ploughing and clean and thorough culture are all that are necessary to make the farmer almost in dependent of the weather and secure for him a fair profit. See to it, then, farmers that you plant not an acre more of corn than you will be able to keep perfectly clean and mellow from the time it is above ground until it is too large to cultivate. Thorough work always pays, work half done never pays. GOOD STOCK. —Why is it that on so ma ny of the farms throughout the country, farms of which no person need be ashamed, and which in almost every particular except this one, show the unquestionable signs ot good farming, the stock exhibit the unmis takable evidence of neglect and inattention in in breeding ? There is no donbt that it is generally the result either of carelessness or that it arises from the mistaken idea often entertained by farmers, that it will not pay" to devote more attention and expense to this branch of their business. How very much mistaken are those who indulge in this idea, for that it will cost no more to keep a well-bred animal than one ot an inferior quality is an undisputed tact, and very often it is the case that that breed of animals which is particularly distinguish ed for some excellent quality, consume less (ban those which are their decided inferiors. Hence it follows from this, that it is possible to keep more well-bred animals upon a cer tain quantity of food than those ot an mle rior quality. Having thus proved that it is poor econo my, in relation to the quantity of food con sumed, to keep aninfenor animal, Eshallnow speak of some of the other advantages which well-bred animals have over the in ferior. Take, for example, two oxen, one of which is well-bred and well cared for ; the other an ill-bred, ill cared for, inferior ani mal and notice the vastly greater ease and celerity with which the former will do his work in comparison to the latter. In like manner take two cows and notice the differ ence in the quantity and quality of their milk Also, m relation to fattening quali ties, how much quicker, and with what greater facility the well-bred animals may be fan ned, a ;d to what greater weignts tbpv mav fx 1 brought than those which are inferior to tl 'em. But some may say that it ; n<warv ; n order to obtain these well i?Vt TOOK money th„ they care about doing. It is true that in some cases it is i necessary to expend a cer tain amount, but this when properly invest ed. will soon be re 4 ™d. But it often hap pens that it is not 1 'ecessaiy to expend any hing. for there are doubtless some of your neighbors who post tetter bred males than yourself, and ofte W thus mterchang ing great benefits may e nsue - , , 'Such a method as this benefit oniv those who raise their ot vn breeding but those who buy their stc young, generally run a n 3 k of obtaining some inferior animals. — Ger, nantown Tele graph. _ _ SOWING SEEDS. —Few of os a. re aware ol the amount of labor we entail \ l P° n our " selves by sowing foul seed, or seed t , Qat con " tains a large quantity of weed seen, • upon our fields. We are sowing it every yeL and what is worse, we cannot always " e, P ourselves. „ Prof. Buckman, late of the Royal Ag T1 ~ cultural College, after the most careful m - vestigation, found that in a pint of ordinary clover seed, there were no less than 7UOO seeds of weeds. In a pint of common grass seed, such as is generally bought at the Btores, there were 12,600 weed seeds. In a pint of broad-leaved clover, there were 39,- gave 25,560. and a'no£herAliS r e§6ffti'i'us l?u££ tityof 70,400 foul weed seeds. The number of these vile seeds to be found in our grass seeds like timothy, red top, etc., is no doubt incredibly great. Is there any subject more important, therefore, than how to procure pure seed? We have weeds enough without sowing them. — Mas sachusetts Ploughman. CLEAN MILKING.—It is sometimes for gotten that the last gill of milk drawn from the cow's udder is tiie best part of every milkiDg. Careful experiments made in England show, (according to a report lately published) that the quality of cream obtain ed from the last cup taken from most cows exceeds that of the first in proportion of twelve to one. Hence a person who care lessly leaves but a half pint of milk undrawn loses in reality about as much cream as would be afforded by six or eight pints at the beginning ; and loses too that part of "the cream which gives the richness and fla vor to the butter. KILL THE CATERPILLARS.—We have several communications urging upon those who own trees to devote a little time now to the destruction of caterpillar nests, which unusually numerous this season. One gen tleman, who has no trees of his own, went into his neighbor's garden, and estimates that he killed 10,000 of these mischievous insects, in an hour's time, and in so doing probably saved his friend his fruit CTOP next fall. An hour spent now in destroying these pests is of more value than ten hours will be a few weeks hence, and we hope a war of extermination will everywhere be waged against them.— Boston Journal. As HULL AS A HOE.—Why should the hoe be made the whippihg post for so many bluntfedged scythes, axes, knives, and other tools'? As dull as a hoe ! Many a farmer works the year through with a hoe whose edge is thicker than an old-fashioned per, when a few minutes turning of the grindstone would put it in good working or der. A sharp hoe saves time and strength, and does one's work better than a dull one. No farmer will mow ordinarily longer than a day, without grinding his scythe, why not always keep an edge also upon the hoe ? American AgricuUurist. ADMINISTRATOR'S NOTICE.

The property ef the above named company, which is about being organized under the mining laws of Pennsylvania, consists of the following valuable territory, to wit: 1. A lease of one-half acre, known as ''No. 3," on the Tenney and Storrow purchase, on Cherry Run, Venango county, Pa., just above the celebra ted "Reed" well and within a stone's throw of a well just struck, flowing at present 100 barrels per day. A new derrick erected upon the lot. One half the oil to the company. 2. A lease of one half acre, in close proximity to the above, known as "No. 6," on the Tenney and Storrow purchase on Cherry Run. New derrick erected upon the lot. One half the oil to the coiu pany. 3. The refusal for sixty days, of a lease on Su gar Creek, of two acres of ground; five-eigbths of the oil to the company. 4. Seven acres in fee simple on the waters of Ritchey Run, one mite from its junction with the Allegheny, about the same distance from the Fox and Widel well, owned by tho "Stump Island Oil Company." All flat, boreable territory, at present under cultivation, with a good frame house upon it. 5. Three acres in fee simple on the Allegheny river, just below the mouth of the (llarion river. There is room on this tract for a half dozen wells. The "Allegheny and Clarion River Oil Compa ny,"' of Philadelphia, arc now sinking several wells immediately opposite this property, with excel lent prospects of success. In presenting the above basis to the public, it is confidently believed that it cannot be excelled by that of any other company yet organised. The two leases on Cherry Run are themselves worth more than the territories of many companies which profess to be based upon a million capital. The Cherry Run region has proved to be the sur est oil-producing territory yet discovered. Nine tentbs of the wells bored on this stream have been successful. The great "Reed" well, flowing 375 barrels per day, the "Mountain" well flowing 100, and in fact nearly all of the large wells yet struck, are located on Cherry Run. It is proposed to sell a sufficient number of shares to pay for the territory and to raise work ing capital for its development, at the low prioe of ticenty -ficc cent per share, thus placing every sub scriber to tki fund on tke ground-f our, and giv ing each eubecriber a pro rata interest in the ter ritory, engines, and other property of the company, as well as the shares of stock remaining unsold after the purchase money and working capital are raised. From the nature of the leases boripg up on them must be commenced within sixty days from the 20th of April, 1865, which is a sufficient guaranty that the company will proceed without delay to the development of its territory.

These powders are not intended, as most pow ders are to bloat the animal, so as to give him the appearanco of being fat when not really so—but to remove the diseaso and promote his general health. These powders will strengthen the stomach and intestines, cleanse them from offensive matter, an f bring them to a healthy stafe.

London Quarterly Review (Conservative.) Edinburgh Review (Whig.) Westminster Review (Radical). North British Review (Free-Church). AND Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine (Tory) The American Publishers continue to reprint the above-named periodical®, but as the cost of printing has doubled and the price of paper nearly trebled, they are compelled to advance their terms as fol lows: T", _ . per annum. For any one of the Reviews $4.00 For any two of the Reviews 7.00 For any three of the Reviews..... 10,00 44 For all four of the Reviews..., 12 00 44 For Blackwood's Magazine......... 400 " For Blackwood and any one Review.." 7M " For Blackwood and two of the Reviews .10.00 " For Blackwood and three of the Review? IH.OO " For Blackwood and the four Review#.... 15.00 " Theso works will bo printed on a greatly im proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A merican Periodicals arc either advanced in price or reduced in size—and very generally both, we shall continue to give faithful copies of all the matter contained in the original editions.Hence, our pres ent prices will be found as cheap, for the amount of matter tarnished, as those of any of the com peting periodicals in the country. Compared with the cost of the original editions, which at the present premium on gold would be about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexeecding ly low. Add to this the fact that we make our an nualpayments to the British Publishers for early sheets and copyright in Gold—sl costing us at I this time nearly $2.50 In currency—and we trust that in the scale we have adopted" we shall be enti rely justified by our subscribers and the reading public. The interest of these Periodicals to American readers is rathor increased than diminished by the a u tlC If y c ? ntain on ourgreat Civil War, and though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may stUi, considering their great ability and the differ ent stand-points from which they are writ ten. be read and studied with advantage by the people of this country of every creed and party.
