MB. EDITOR.— Clover HAY cut at the pe
riod ot raiorweence, and thoroughly made,
has been found by repeated experiments, to
lose about four-fifths of its weight in "ma-
king. When the flower has fallen, and the
stalks have lost some of their moisture, the
loss in drying is three-quarters of the weight
of the crop when cut; probably a fair aver
age where the grass is in the state of ad- ■
vancement last indicated, and the labor of
making is performed with a free exposure
to the sun and air, one hundred pounds will
be reduced to twenty-two. Clover, in all its
varieties, is a valuable product, and one of
the best grasses for hay, if mixed with the
latter kinds, we have for cattle. It is sapid,
highly nutritive in its properties, and agrees
well with all descriptions of animals. Its
value, however, for feeding purposes, de
pends, in an eminent degree.upon the meth
od of curing it Formerly it was the practice
to mow it in the morning, and after repeat
ed turnings and "shaking," to put it in
oock. The next day it was open, turned
two or three times, pitched into bunches,
and finally, after the foliage and seeds
had been detached by the rough hand
ling to which it was thought uecessary to
subject it, conveyed to the mows. The loss
attending this method was soon found to be
a serious abstraction from the profit of the
crop, while the expense of "making," to
say nothing of the mowing, was scarcely re
paid by what remained.
Now, clover is cut as soon as the dew is
off, allowed to remain in the sward undis
turbed by the fork or rake till toward night,
when if the weather is clear or Dot, it is care
fully tamed, in order that a new surface
may be exposed to the night dews, and the
next afternoon pitched into "grass cocks,"
each weighing abouteighty pounds, in which
condition it is suffered to remain until suffi
ciently dry to go into mow. Hay made in
this way, possesses the deep, rich green of
the natural plant before being cut, and that
sweet aromatic odor so grateful to even
person capable of "appreciating sweet
smells." We have seen the clover heads as
bright in mid winter, in hay made in this
manner, as they were the moment they fell
before the sweep of the mower's scythe,
and for aught we could perceive to the con
trary, as fragrant.
AM kinds of grass made in this way. is
unquestionably much improved in quality ;
it also loses less by many pounds in a hun
dred, while the expense is diminished nearly
or quite one-fifth. As hay made in "grass
cock is necessarily required to remain more
dayt in the field than where the old plan of
sun-drying is practiced, the provision of a
number of li caps" should be attended to,
before commencing. These are cheap, and
are made of the sine of ordinary bed-sheets,
say two yards square, commonly of cheapest
. muslin. They are provided with loops at
the corners through which, when the caps
aie placed in position, long pins are insert
ed, extending upward into the hay to pre
vent their displacement by the wind. They
are cheap, and with will last an age.
Here in New England and in many parts of
New York they are used extensively and
much liked. p. p. w.

' TB ASHES.
Squashes do best on new land. All the
summer varieties have a hard shell when
matured. The crook-necks, and the white
and yellow summer scalloped, are the usual
varieties grown. Different varieties should
be planted far apart, as they mix very easily.
Two or three plante are enough for a hill.
The best protection from the bug is the box,
covered with gauze or glass. Squashes oc
cupy a great deal of ground when suffered
to run and have their own, way. When a
economise, a trellis for them to run upon is
recommended, and is said to operate very
successfully. Stakes or small posts are set
up two feet apart each way and the seed
planted in the center. When the vines be
gin to run they are trained upon slats nailed
to the posts, and by throwing boards across
the slate the fruit is supported, and will ri
pen much earlier than when allowed to lie
on the ground half covered with leaves.—
Squashes trained in this way can be made to
occupy but little space, and are said to bear
as profusely as when the vines run over the
ground. To those who have but little room
the plan is well worth trying. For late vari
eties, the best are the Hubbard, Boston
Marrow, Acorn, and vegetable Marrow.—
The Valparaiso is a tolerably fair variety
when the season is just right. Immense
squashes, sometimes grown, are rather for
the sight than the table. They are coarse
meated, and watery, compared with the lit
tle nurley Hubbard, which is mealy and as
delicately flavored as the sweet potato. As
squashes are great runners, they do better
with their ends clipped off. — Utica Herald.
TRASSPIAKTI m
It will soon be time to transplant cabbage,
tomato, and tobacco plants. This is often
carelessly done, and great losses are sustain
ed in consequence. A few hours exposure
of the plants to the sun and wind will result
in the loss of some days' growth, at least, if
it does not cause the entire loss of the plants.
These plants should not be lifted from the
bed if it can be helped, till the ground and
the holes are prepared to receive them. It
is a capita] plan, if the soil is not already
very moist from rain, to water them thor
oughly in the bed an hour or two before lift
ing- It will cause a greater amount of soil
to adhere to the roots.
"Take them up tenderly, lift them with care/'
is the rule to be observed here, as in other
things. "No pains, no gains," is the mot
to. Select a rainy or damp lay, if possible.
If not, just before sunset is better than the
morning. We like to have a pretty dry
soil to set them in, but we would have a sup-
ply of water to pour into the hole after it is
made, and before it is soaked away sit in the
plant and fill it with dry soil This is wet
by the water, and the plant is surrounded
by moisture, and yet the surface is loose
and open, and not packed too close, or baked
around the plant. A little extra pains will
pay well. Try it and see.— Ohio Farmer.

No Favoritism. Every Snbserlber on the

The property of the above named company,
which is about being organised under the mining
laws of Pennsylvania, consists of the following
valuable territory, to wit:
1. A lease of one-haif acre, known as "No. 3,"
on the Tenney and Storrow purchase, on Cherry
Run, Venango county, Pa., just above the celebra
ted "Keed" well and within a stone's throw of a
well just struck, flowing at present 106 barrels pei
day. A new derrick erected upon tbe 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 com
pany. v
3. Tbe refusal for sixty days, of a lease on Su
gar Creek, of two acres of ground; five-eighths of
the oil to the company.
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 fiat, 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, are 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 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, tfie "Mountain" well 400
and in fact nearly all of the large wells yet struck!
are located on Cherrv Run.
It is proposed to sell a sufficient number of
shares to pay for the territory and to raise work
ing c apital for its development, at the low price of
twenty-fire cent* per ehare, thu* placing every euh
ecrtber to tki* fund on the gronndfiour, and giv
ing each eubecriber a pro rata inter e*t in the ter
ritory, engine *, and other property of the company.
as well as the shares of stock remaining unsold
after the purchase money and working capital arc
raised. From the nature of the leases boring up
on them must be commenced within sixty days
from the 20th of April, 186*, which is a sufficient
guaranty that the company will proceed without
delay to the development of its territory.

pOUTZ'S CELEBRATED
Horse and Cattle Powders.
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 medicines 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 are 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.
These powders will strengthen the stomach and
intestines, cleanse them from offensive matter, an '
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 and Vital
Energy, Ac.—-These powders, 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,
HOGS.
In all diseases of swine, as coughs, nlcers in the
lungs and liver, Ac., by putting from half a paper
to a paper of these powders in a barrel of swill, the
above diseases can be cured or entirely prevented.
By using these powders the hog cholera can be
prevented.

These works will be printed on a greatly im

merican Periodicals are either advanced iu price or
reduced in size—and very generally both, we shall
continue to give faithful copies of all the natter
contained in the original editions.Hence, our pres
ent prices will bo found as cheap, for the amount
of matter furnished, as those of any of the com
peting periodicals in the eountry.
( ompared with the cost of the original editions,
which at the present premium on gold would be
about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexceeding
ly low. Add to this the fact that we make our an
nual payments to the British Publishers for early
sheets and copyright in Gold—sl costing us at
this time nearly $2.50 in currency—and we trust
that in the scale we have adopted we shall he enti
rely justified by our subscribers and the reading
public.
The interest of these Periodicals to American
readers is rather increased than diminished by the
articles they contain on onrgreat Civil War, and
though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may
still, considering their great ability and the differ
ent stand-points from which they arewritten, be
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of every creed" and party.
