Jam. SsrpEst SlKciujSfholtl. n tTivATios or bkkwheat. Wlien buckwheat is sowed in the spring, or first part of summer, the hot weather which occurs when it is in blossom, prevents perfect fructification. Consequently there will be numerous clusters of kernels that will be blasted. For this reason the seed should be sowed, so that the hottest weather will have passed, by the time the buckwheat is in full bloom. Cool weather or at least cool nights are quite as essential to good crops of buckwheat, as hot days and nights are for Indian corn. The point te be aimed at in every locality is, to defer sowing as long as possible and allow it sufficient time to ma ture before an early frost will destroy the crop. This period occurs at different times in different localities. In the latitude of Central and Western New York, the proper time for seeding is ahout the first of July. We have known buckwheat sowed as late as the 16th of July, which produced a bounti ful crop : but in that latitude there is a great risk on account of the frost, if it is not sowed by the tenth of July. Our most successful farmers in this latitude, calculate to have their buckwheat put in as soon as the fourth of July, and in some seasons, even when sowed at that time, frost appears so early in the fall as to almost destroy the en tire crop. In some localities it may be sow ed the latter part of July, and escape frost If the soil where it is sowed be well pulveri zed so that it will vegetate immediately, and if the grain is put in by the fourth of July or even by*the tenth, a bountiful erop may be expected. When the ground is plowed but once for a crop of buckwheat where the soil is heavy, it is often so dry and hard, and breaks up in such large lumps and clods that many farmers in waiting for rain to moisten the soil previous to plowing, are compelled to deter seeding until it is too late. But if the soil be plowed in the spring, it will not become dry and hard by the time it is to be plowed the second time, but will be moist and mellow ; and the grain will vege tate soon. Every intelligent fanner who is located on a heavy soil, that is apt to plow up lumpy, understands the importance of plowing it when it is just moist enough to turn up mel low. Buckwheat can not be expected to vegetate in time' and flourish luxuriantly, and yield a renumerating crop, when the soil is a mass of dry lumps.— American Ag riculturist. MANURING (OR.\ AFTER IT IN IP. Circumstances sometimes render it impos sible to thoroughly prepare corn ground be fore planting, and it is often advantageous to manure after it is up. This mnst be done at the time of the first hoeing. Along the seaboard where the Moss-bunkers or Men haden are taken in such great numbers, they are much used. A shallow furrow is made with a small plow, on each side of every row, a few inches from the hills, turning the earth away frem the row ; then one fish is placed in the furrow on each side of every hill. Should the furrows be too shallow in some places, the earth is worked out a little with the foot or hand-hoe, so that the fish may be placed below the surface of the soil. Then the earth is turned toward the hills, and the corn hoed. If the fish should be displaced, the workmen bury them again close to the hill. By the time of the second hoeing, they will be pretty thoroughly de composed, Where there is not an excess of water in the soil) this kind of manure pro duces a very luxuriant and rapid growth, as well as good yield. A similar method is sometimes practiced with barn-yard manure, the earth being turned from the rows as previously directed, a small shovelful of ma nure is placed on each side of every hill and covered. The manner of distributing this kind of manure is, to drive a loaded wagon astride of one row, so that two hands can each apply the manure to two or three rows on each side. When turning a wagon around over the young corn, if a wheel is liable to run directly on a hill place short pieces of plank or rails on oach side of it, which will lift the wagon over without injuring the corn. Lime, gypsum, ashes, guano, hen manure, or any other similar materials may often be very profitably applied, at the first hoeing. They should always be sprinkled over an area of several inches in diameter, all around the hill, and covered and mingled with the earth in hoeing. Guano, or strong hen manure, if applied in this manner, will never work injury to the young plants, un less they come in direct contact with them, or an inordinate quantity be used.—Ameri can Agriculturist. TMIV.MNO COR.\ IK THE MILKS. Thinning should always be done as soon as practicable after the corn has come up. This is usually done at the first hoeing, but should be delayed till danger from the grob, or out-worm, is over. Unless careful labor ers are employed, many hills will be neglec ted. Superfluous stalks may be removed at any convenient time, even in lowery weath er, when the soil is too wet to be worked with cultivators or hoes. The best manner of doing this is to cut them off close to the ground, with a sharp knife, and drop them near the stand corn. The stalks should be removed from the middle of the hill, that the remaining plants may stand as flir from each other as possible; the farther they stand apart the larger the ears will grow.— When the stalks are pulled up, they will of ten loosen and break the roots of those that are left, but, if cut off as directed, the roots soon die. If care be not exercised in drop ping only a proper number of kernels in a hill, much labor will be required to thin out a large field. Still it is better to do so than to allow five or six stalks to grow where there should be only three, or at most four. There wiD be more and better grain on four stalks than on a large number.— American Agriculturist PLOWIKO AHOSO TREES. Bitch the traces at full length directly to the plow ; then take a crooked jack stick, like a piece of old scythe snath, two and a half feet long ; sharpen each end to go into the links of the trace chains ; then put it under the horse just forward of his hind legs; then get a stretcher about eight inch es long, and put it as close to the plow as Fou can; this will give the horse pleatF of room for his hind feet, and he can walk right against the trees and bushes and never in jure them. yALUABLE PROPERTY FOR SALE.

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 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 bloou, and lay the foundation for a vigorous [and healthy circulation. The use of them improves the wind, strengthens the appetite and gives the borsea 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 bis 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 surepre 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, yonr hurscs 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 borage 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 whieh should place it in the bands of every person keeping a cow.

AND Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine! Tory) The American Publishers continue to reprint the above-named periodicals, but as the cost of printing has dnubled and the price of paper nearly trebled, they are compelled to advance their terms as fol lows : 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 " For all four of the Reviews 12.00 " For Blackwood's Magazine 4.00 " For Blackwood ami any one Review... 7.00 " For Blackwood and two of the Reviews 10.00 " For Blackwood and three of the Reviews 13.00 " For Blackwood and the four Reviews.... 15.00 " These works will be printed on a greatly im proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A uierican Periodicals are either advanced in price or reduced in size—and very generally both, we shall co.itinue 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 furnished, 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) areexreeding ly low. Add to this the fact that we make our an nual payments to the British Publishers for early sheets and copyright ifl Gold—slcosting us at this time nearly $2.50 in currency—and wc trust that in the scale wc have adopted we shall be 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 ourgrcat civil War, and though-some times tinged with prejudice they may still, considering their great ability and the differ ent stand-points from which they arcwritten, be read and studied with advantage by the people of this country of every creed and party.

WIGTON, President Glamorgan Iron Co., Nov. 18, 1884. Huntingdon, Pa. GREAT SUCCESS Of THE Bedford County Mutual Oil Company. Over 50,000 Shares Already Sold. CAPITAL STOCK... 015O T OOO PAR VALUE OF SHARES FTL.OO. So Favoritism. Every Sssboeriber on •* brunnd Floor. The property f 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-baif acre, known as "No. 3," on the Tenney and Storrow purchase, on Cherry Run, Venango county, just above the celebra ted "Reed" well and within a stone's throw of a well just struck, flowing at present 100 barrels pei 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. 0," 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; flve-e'ghths of the oil to the company. 4. Seven acres in fee simple on the waters of Ritebey Run, one mile from its junction with the Allegheny, about the some 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 thfe 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 comphny 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- j 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 tteentg-five cent per share, thus plat ing eeery sub scriber to thin fund on the gromui-Jioitr, and git 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. Front the nature of the leases boring up on them must be commenced within sixty days from the 20th of April, 1885, 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. FARyUHAR. (secretary and Treasurer—JACOß REED. DIRECTORS: Wm. Masters, B. F. Meyers, 11. T. Smith, J. M. Shoemaker, J. H. Schell, F. D. Bcegle. Persons desiring to secure Stock in this Compa ny will please call immediately on any one of the above officers. ap2B GEO. DEMERIT A CO..
