Jam, n & CLEAN CTITI'BI. Much has bean said and written upon this subject, yet its importance is unappreciated by fanners generally. The residents of cit ies and villages, having but a small area of ground for cultivation, see the necessity of keeping it dean and in proper eoodition. But the great majority of farmers act as if they thought it was a matter of small mo ment whether they grew grain and roots or weeds. They think (to use a favorite ex pression,) that "it don't pay" to spend too much time and labor to exterminate the weeds. This is a great mistake. Take the corn crop, for instance. Let one field be kept free from weeds and grass through the entire season, and the &her half cultivated —estimate the quantity and quality of the crop—and you will soon see that the clean culture "does pay," and largely too. If the proper course is taken with a field of corn or potatoes, it costs little more 'to keep it clean than to have it grow up to weeds and grass. In the first place, many men make a mis take in plowing the ground too early. Oth ers do not more than half fit it for the crop. If it is sod, great care should be taken that it should be t cell plmced —that every parti cle of grass is turned under. The plowing should not be commenced until near the season for planting; it should then be push ed forward as rapidly as possible until com pleted. Premising that the soil is in proper con dition, the roller should immediately follow the plow; then harrow lengthwise of the furrow and next diagonally, so as not to disturb the sod. If the weather is favora ble and the soil is reasonable loose, dry and in good tilth, three thorough harrowings will generally be sufficient. But do not be in haste to introduce the marker. Remem ber that a good former always hoes his crop once before it is planted. If he does, very likely that will be the only hoeing it will need. The cultivator and plow will do the rest As soon as the corn makes its appear ance above the ground (or before,) fertili zers should be applied—plaster, or wood ashes, or, what is better, both these combi ned; and as soon as the rows can be distin guished, the cultivator should be started. The old rule used to be to cultivate twice and then hoe, and after the lapse of seme weeks, perhaps, this process was repeated. ow, the true way is to have wo arbitrary rule about it. Keep it clean and the soil mellow, if you have to keep the cultivator going until the corn is tassled out—and hoe it if necessary. For several years I have not used a hoe after planting and my rule is, not to have a weed go to seed amoDg my potatoes. In a dry season this result is eas ily attained. Hoeing, in the skimming and superficial manner in which it is usually done, does very little good. It is the deep and frequent stirring of the soil, with the cultivator, plow, or horse-shoc, that does the business. The importance of it in dry season cannot be over-estimated. It is folly to sit down and mourn over the drouth.— Pray for rain if you please—but by all means keep the cultivator going.— Exchange. TO MAKE FARMING ATTRACTIVE. 1. By less hard work. Fanners often un derstand more than they can do well, and consequently work too early and too late. 2. By more system. The formers should have a time to begin and stop labor. They should put more mind and machinery into their work. They should theorize as well as practice, and let both gc together. Farming is. healthy, moral, and respectable ; and, in the long run, may be made profitable. The former should keep good stock and out of debt. The farm is the best place to begin and end life, and hence so many in the cities and professional life covet a rural home. 3. By taking care of health. Farmers have a healthy variety of exercise, but too often neglect cleanliness, omit bathing, eat irregularly and hurriedly, sleep in ill-venti lated apartments, and expose themselves to cold. Nine-tenths of the human diseases arise from cold or intemperance. Frequent bathing is profitable, so is fresh air, delib eration at the dinner table, and rest after dinner. 4. By adorning the home. Nothing is lost by a pleasant home. Books, papers, pictures, music and reading should all be brought to bear upon the indoor family en tertainments; and neatness and comfort, order, shrubbery, flowers and fruits should harmonize all without Home should be a sanctuary so happy and holy that children will love it, manhood crave it, old age enjoy it There would be less desertion of old homesteads if pains were taken to make them agreeable. Ease, order, health and beauty are compatible with farm life, and were ordained to go with it. HELPERS. Twice as much work can be done on the farm by the use of proper implements as there can be without them. A man can tend two or three acres of corn, with the use of a good horse-hoe, easier than he can tend one acre with the hand hoe alone. So he can get four or five tons of hay, with less hard work to himself, with the use of a ma chine to cut and a horse-rake, than he can to cut and rake by hand. The aid of a wheel hoe, in the cultivation of vegetables and field root crops, will enable him to do the work with half the help. It is not too late to look among the machines, and see what ones among them may be introduced with deci ded economy and advantage. The ordinary farmer cannot afford to do his work with his hands alone —he must employ machinery. TO PREVENT A.M Vl HE HYDROPHO BIA. A. Hubbard, of Broome Co., 111., in a let ter to the St. Louis Republican says eigh teen years ago my brother and myself were bitten by a mad dog, a sheep was also bitten at the same time. Among the cures offered for the little hoys (we were then ten or twelve years old) was the following which was said to cure the bite of a rattle snake. Take the root of the common upland Ash, commonly called White Ash, peel off the bark, boil it to a strong decoction, of this drink freely. Whilst my father was preparing the above the sheep spoken of began to be afflicted with hydrophobia when it had become so fatigued from its distracted state as to be no longer able to stand, my father drenched it with a pint of the Ash root ooze hoping to ascer tain whether he could depend upon it as a cure for his sons. Four hours after the drench had been given, to the astonishment of all, the animal got up and went quietly with the flock to graze. Mv brother and myself continued to take medicine for 8 or 10 days, 1 gill 3 times daily. No effect of the dread poison was ever discovered on ei ther of us. It has been used very success fully in Snake bites to my knowledge. Th is medicine boiled very strong may vomit and purge if taken too freely. TH-ALITABLE PROPERTY FOR SAI.E.

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 arecompos 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, strengthenstheappetiteand 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 not really so—bnt to remove the disease and promote his general health. These powderg will strengthen the stomach and intestines, cleanse them from offensive matter, an 4 bring tbcm 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 of 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, HOOS. In all diseases of swine, as coughs, ulcers in the lungs and liver, <tc., 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.

AND Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine I Tory) The American Publishers continue to reprint the above-named periodicals, 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 : 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 and any one Review... 7.00 " For Blackwood and two of theßoviews 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 meriean Periodicals are 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 editiocs.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) arecxcceding 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 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 ourgreat 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. LEONARD SCOTT A CO., Ijubli-hers, No. 38 Walker Street, New York. tan. 27, 1865.

R., and within six miles of the Broad Top Coal Mines, which affords one of the best markets in the coun try for all marketing a farmer can produce. It contains Two Hundred Acres good limestone land, about One Huedred and Fifty acres of which are cleared and in a good state of cultivation — convenient to schools and churches. It is now occupied by Henry Clapper, who will give parties calling to see it any information desired in regard to the land. For further information, address R. B.

Par Value of Share* ~,.#1.00. Mw Favoritism. Every Subscriber on the Ground Floor. The property of the above named company, which is about being organized nnder the mining law* 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 barrel* pet 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 a* "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 rixty days, of a lease on Su gar Creek, of two acre* of ground; five-eighth* of the oil to the company. 4. Seven acres in fee simple on the waters of Ritohey Run, one mile from it* junction with the Allegheny, about the same distance from the Fox and Widel well, owned by the "Stump Island Oil Company." Allflat, boreablo territory, at present under cultivation, with a good frame house upon it. 5. Three acres in fee simple on the Allegheny river, ju*t below the mouth of the Clarion river. There i* room on this tract for a half dozen well*. The "Allegheny and Clarion River Oil Compa ny," of Philadelphia, are now sinking several well* 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 exeelled 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 bo the sur est oil-producing territory yet discovered. Nine tenth* 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 share* to pay for the territory and to raise work ing capital for its development, at the low price of twenty-Jive cent* per share, (hue placing eery üb scriber to thin fund on the ground-flour, and gir 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 aud Treasurer—JACOß REED. DIRECTORS: Wm. Masters, B. F. Meyers, H. T. Smith, j J. M.
