WASHING SHEEP. It may he for the interests of dealers ii wool, and manufacturers, to have sheet washed previous to shearing. But the wel ware of the flocks and the mtereste of the owners of valuable sheep, which are consid erations of paramount importance to every thing .else, are promoted by not washing.— The farmers' only reason for washing sheet is, that, if the wool bo thoroughly washed, a man can shear a sheep sooner than if i wore not washed. Sheep hate wet in every fonn. They dislike wet pastures, wet yards leaky sheds, and, more than all else, wet flee ces. When they are washed, the water and the weather are frequently quite cold, and aa they often become uncomfortably warn; while being driven to the water, and are plunged immediately into it, and kept there until quite chilled through : they are quite liable to contract more or less cold, which will many times superinduce some other dis case. This is particularly true if the weather continue wet and cold for several successive days after washing. This is the great argument against the practice of wash ing sheep in our changeable climate. Eve ry practice that endangers the health o! sheep ought, if possible, to be abandoned, and not be made subservient to ordinary pe cuniary considerations. Another thing against washing sheep, is, that cleansing of wool in this manner is of ten of little real advantage, and frequently of none at all, as it often becomes quite at dirty before shearing, as it was before the sheep were washed. This is particularly true when sheep are not kept in clean past ures after they have been washed. Many times it is quite impracticable to confine ev ery flock in pastures where they cannot find some dirty place to roll in. Sometime? shearers cannot be obtained at the desired time, or the weather is too unfavorable to allow the wool to dry sufficiently to be shear ed, and sometimes the tabors of the field are so urgent that shearing must be deferred for a number of days. All these considera tions are in favor of abandoning entirely the practice of washing sheep. Admitting that it costs more per head for shearing unwash ed sheep, the expense of washing will ex ceed the extra cost for shearing without washing. two items will balance each other. Then, when the differ ence brtween the prices of unwashed and washed wool, which is not definite, even when the absurd one-third rate is insisted upon by buyers, is contrasted with injury which may follow washing valuable sheep, it is safe to assume that it is better to shear them unwashed. Moreover, when flocks from various parts of the country are driven to the same washing-place, there is great danger that sound and healthy flocks will come in contact with the contagion of dis eased sheep that have been in the pens to be washed. Many an excellent flock of sheep, which has been guarded with vigilance by its proprietor, has been well nigh ruined, simply by being yarded where sheep having the foot-rot had recently been confined. — What is needed at the present time is. an understanding between wool growers that all will shear their sheep without washing; then the practice will soon be abandoned, a? neither promotive of the welfare of the sheep nor of the interests of the shepherds nor of manufacturers. — American Agricul turist. CLEAN YOUR CELLARS. If not already done : thoroughly purge this subterranean story of your house. Every decayed onion, cabbage stump, potato vine or tuber, turnip, parsnip, carrot and all the dirt they have made, all straw and rubbish, rake them up and out with them. The cellar is no place for them at any time of the year. If you still retain a few pota toes for table use let them be picked ove; and all decayed ones removed. One of th< best housewives of our acquaintance, greet ed us not long since with an invitation t< come and see her cellar. "I have swepi down every cobweb, whitewashed the walls swept up the floor, and sowed it with salt, Decayed vegetable matter is a fertile caus< of disease, and there is enough of it out o doors in this country without heaping it uj in the cellar for the special purpose, it woulc almost seem, of breeding fevers. White wash the walls, for lime purifies as well a beautifies. Rake down the cobwebs, the) are the infallible marks of a slattern. Sail destroys worms, &c. If your cellar is verj dry and sandy, you may use salt withou detriment ; but if too damp it will mak< the matter worse. DEPTH OF COVERING SEEDB. As a general rule, the smaller the seec the lighter should be the covering. .We an very apt to cover too deeply. Mature her< is safe to follow. She covers lightly. Thi seed falls from the ripened stalk upon th< surface of the ground to be covered onl; with leaves, or to be washed into the soil b; the rains. Onions, parsnips, squashes anc Lima Beans, such plants, especially, as pusl up the shells of the seed itself, find it diffi cult to force their way up through muel depth of earth, after it is packed down bj rams. A quarter or a half an inch at most is quite sufficient for these seeds. Oare should be taken that no lumps o; earth be left over them. We like long rowi of beets, carrots, parsnips, etc., and don'i believe in wasting half tne land in useless paths and walks with short rows running crosswise. Long rows are more easily work ed and kept clean than short ones, and th< labor for the same number of plants in lonj rows is less then in short ones. We shoulc study economy both on the farm and in the garden. On the field the too frequent turn mgs consume much time in ploughing, ant to some extent this is so in the garden. Massachusetts Ploughman. GARDEN WALKS. As many persons have at this time largt heaps of coal ashes, they can dispose o: them in no way better to advantage than by hauling them into their garden alleys Remove from four to six inches of the dirt and having screened the ashed or separatee the core and cinders, first apply the coarst ■tuff, then oyster-shells, if you have any or hand, small stones, gias# or pieces of bricks, and topdress with th n ashes. Roll it, and you will have one oft he best walks ever seer in a garden. The ashes become very hard, and are never wet, winter or summer, if the weather gives the water the least, chance to get away. In summer in five minutes aftex a shower, there will be scarcely enough moisture to dampen the soles of your shoe?. If there is not sufficient ashes fore all the walks, commence with the principal ones, and in a couple of years the garden will be complete. Then, each spring after, give them a slight top-dressing of the ashes, which will about consume your annual stock, —Gcrmantmcn Telegraph. BIRDS. —Whatever havoc birds may make among the fruits in summer, during April and May they live upon insects, and the number they destroy is immense. Happy is he who has his garden full of them. V rens and blue birds especially should be courted And furnisded with houses of appropriate sizes; for wrens,boxes 4M 4 with an .inch hole for entrance two inches above the floor: for blue birds, BM6 with 11-4 inch hole. Colonize different birds in different places, for the wrens are quamdsome. — Agrieultui ist. EXECUTOR'S NOTlCE.— Gutters testa menury on the estate of Joseph W.

Every Knbscribcr on the Ground Floor. 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 u it: 1. A lease of one-haif acre, known as "No. 3," on the Tenncy 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 pet day. A new derrick erected upon the lot. One half the oil to the company. 2. A lease of one half acre, inclose 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 com pany. 3. The refusal for sixty days, of a lease on Su gar Creek, of two acres of ground; five-eighths of the oil to thecompauy. 4. Seven acres in fee simple on the waters of Ritchey Run, one mile from its junction with the Allegheny, about the same distance from the Fox and Widel well, owned by the "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 Clarion river. There is room on this tract for a half dozen wells. , The "Allegheny and Clarion River Oil Compa ny," of Philadelphia, arenow 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 organized. 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 tenths of the wells bored on this stream have been successful. The great "Reed" well, flowing 375 barrels per day, the "Mountain" well flowing 400, 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 price of tventy-fice cent* per share, thus placing every sub scriber to this fund, on the. 'ground-four, and giv ing each subscriber 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 boring 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. The following named persons haue been elected officers of the company. President—J. B. FARQUHAR. Secretary and Treasurer—JACOß REED. DIRECTORS: Wm. Masters, B.F.Meyers, H. T. Smith, J. M.

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 fiom the fact that they are compos ed of medicines that have Laxative, Tonic and Purifying properties. The laxative ejects crudi ties from the stomach and intestines, the tonic gives strength to the system of the Horse, and the puri fying medicine? contained in them cleanse the blood, and lay the foundation for a vigorous [and healthy circulation. The use of them improves the wind, strengthens the appetite and gives the horse a 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 arc to bloat the animal, so as to give him the appearance of being fat when not really so—but to remove the disease and promote his general health.
