WHAT I KNOW OF FARMING.
*T HORACE GBEBLET.
XII.-- Irrigation Means and Ends
While few can have failed to realize the
important part played by Water in the econo
my of vegetation. I judge that the question
—"How can I secure to my growing plants a
sufficiency of moisture at all times ?"—baa
not always presented itaelf Iti the farmer'e
mind as demanding of bins a practical solu
tion. To rid his soil and keep it free of su
perfluous, but especially of stagnant water,
he may or may not accept as a necessity; but
that, having provided for draining away
whatever is excessive, be sbonldtnrn a short
corner and begin at once to provide that wa
ter shall be supplied to his fields and plants
whenever tbey may need it, he in often slow
to apprehend. Yet this provision is but the
counterpart and complement of the other.
I had sped across Europe to Venice, and
noted with interest the admirable, effective
irrigation of the great plain of Lombardy, be
fore I could call any land my own, I saw
there a region perhaps lhirty miles wide by
one hundred and fifty long along the eastbsmk
ofthe Po, rising very gently thence to the foot
ofthe Austrian Alps, which Providence seems
to have specially adapted to be improved by
irrigation. The torrents oi melted snow
which in Spring leap and foam adown the
southern face of the Alps, bringing with tbem
the finer particles of soil, are suddenly arres
ted and form lakes > Garde. Maggiore, Como,
Ac.) jnst as they emerge upon the plain.
These lakes, slowly rising, often overflow
their banks, with those cf the small rivers
that beat tbeir waters westward to the Po-,
and this overflow was a natural source of abi
ding fertility. To dam these oatlets, and
thus control their currents, was a very simple
and obvions device of long ago, and was
probably begun by a very few individuals (if
by more than one,) whose success incited
emulation, until the present extensive and
costly system of irrigating dams and canals
was gradually developed. When I traversed
Lombardy in July, 1851, the beds of streams
naturally as large as the Pemigewasset, Bat
tenkill, Canada Creek, or Humboldt, were
utterly dry. the water which would naturally
have flowed therein being wholly transferred
to an irrigating canal (or to canals) often iwo
or three miles distant. The reservoirs thus
created were filled in Spring, when the
streams were fullest and their water richest,
and gradually drawn upon throughout the
later growing season to cover the carefully
leveled and graded fields on either side to the
depth of an ioch or two at a time. If any
failed to be soon absorbed by the soil, it was
drawn off as here superfluous, and added to
the current employed to moisten and fertilize
the fieid next below it; and so field after field
was refreshed and enriched, to the husband
man's satisfaction and profit. It may bethat
the rich glades of English Lancashire bear
heavier average crops; but those of Lombardy
are rarely excelled on the globe.
Why should not our Atlantic slope have its
Lombardy ? Utah, Nevada, and California,
exhibit raw, crude suggestions of snch a sys
tem; bnt why shonld the irrigation of the
New World be confined to regions where it is
indispensable, when that of the Old is not ?
I know no good reason whatever for leaving
an American field nnirrigated where water
to flow it at will can be bad at a moderate
cost
When I first bought land (in 1853) I fully
purposed to provide for irrigating any nearly
level acres at will, and I constructed two
dams across my upland stream with that view;
but they were so badly planned that they
went off in the flood caused by a tremeodous
tain the next Spring; and, though I rebnilt
one of them, I submitted to a miscalculation
which provided for taking the water, by
means of a syphon, out of the pond at the top,
and over the bank that rose fifteen or twenty
feet ab"ve the surface ofthe water. Of course,
air would work into the pipe after it had car
ried a stream unexceptionably for two or
three days, and then the water would run no
longer. Had I taken it from the bottom oi
of the pond through my dam, it would have
run forever, (or so long as there was water
covering its inlet in the pond:) but bad en
gineering flung me; and I have never since
uad the heart (or the means; to revise and
correct its errors.
My next attempt was on a much humbler
scale, and I engineered it my self. Toward
the north end of my farm, the hill-side which
rises east of my lowland is broken by a swale
or terrace, which give* me three or four acres
of toierabiy level upland, along the upper
edge of which five or six springs, which never
wholly fail, burst from the rocks above and
unite to form a petty runnel, which dries up
in rerj hot or dry weather, but which usually
preserves a tiny stream to be lost in the
swamp below. North of tbs gully cut down
the lower hill-side by this streamlet, the hill
side of some three acree ii quite steep, still
partially wooded, and wholly devoted to pas
turage. Making a petty dam across this run
nel at the top ofthe lower acclivity, I turned
the stream aside, so that it should henceforth
run along the crest of this lower bill, falling
off gradually so as to secure a free current,
and losing its contents at intervals through
variable depressions in its lower bank. Dam
and artificial water-course together cost me
S9O, which was about twice what it should
have been. That rude and petty contrivance
has now been ten years in operation, and may
have cost $5 per annum for oversight and re
pairs. Its effect has been to doubie the grass
grown on the two acres it cons tan tly irrigates,
for which I paid S2BO, or more than thrice
the cost of my irrigation. But more; my hill
side, while it was well grassed in Spring,
always gave out directly'after the first dry,
hot week; so that, when I most needed feed,
it afforded none: its herbage being parched
up and dead, and thus remaining till re
freshed by generous rains. 1 judge, therefore,
that my irrigation bas more than doubled the
product of those two acres, and that these
are likeij to lose nothing in yield or Talne so
long as that petty irrigating ditch shall be
uiaintaiued.

JJOW TO CURE CONSUMPTION.
! THE PHILOSOPHY OF PR. SCHBNOK'S
1 IREAT MEDICINES—WiII fxwple never learn
19 knew that a diseased liver and stomach necet
rarily disease toe qptirr system? The plainest
Principle of common sense teach this, and yet
there are hundred* who ridicule the idea, and
continue in (he course which almost ineviuhly
brings them prematurely to the grave, li ving
as the majority of people do. at complete variance
with the laws of nalnte, it must be apparent to
all, that sooner or later, nainre will ret cnge her
self. Hence we find thai persons who indulge to
excess in the use of very rich or indigestible food
or intoxicating drinks, invariably pay a heavy
penalty in the end. The stomach income* disor
dered and refuses to act: the liver fails to perform
its functions, dyspepsia and its attendant evils
follow, and still the suffering individual* persist
in clinging to the thoroughly exploded ideas of
the past. Dr. SCHKNCK'B medicines are recom
mended to all such. Tbey bring sure and certain
relief wherever they aro used as directed, and all
that is necessary to establish their reputation
with every ailing man or woman in the land is a
fair and impartial trial of tbem. Let those who
are skeptical on this point, and who have permit
ted interested persons to prejudice them against
these now celebrated remedies for Consumption,
discard their prejudice], and be governed by the
principles of reason and common sense. If the
system is disordered depend npon it, in nine cases
out of ten the seat of he disorder will be found
in the stomach nd liver. To cleanse and invig
orate the stomach snd to stimulate the liver to
healthy action, use
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS.— The dai
ly increasing demand : f or these pills is the best
evidence of their value Thousands upon thou
sands of boxes are sold daily. "Why? Simply
because they act promptly and efficiently. In
valids who may not find it convenient to call on
Dr. SCHENCK in per;en are informed that full
and complete directions for use accompany caeh
package of the
MANDRAKE PILLS. PULMONIC BY*UP
AND SEA-WEED TONlC.—These medicines
will core consumption unless the lungs are K far
gone that the patient is entirely beyond the reach
of medical relief.
It may be asked by those who are not familiar
with the virtues of these great remedies. "How do
! Dr. SCHENCK'S medicines effect their wouder
ful cures of consumption?"
The answer is a simple one- They begin their
work of restoration by bringing the stomach,liver
and bowels into an active healthy condition. It
is food that cures this formidable disease.
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS act on the
liver and stomach, promoting healthy secretion,
and removing the bile and slime which have re
suited from the inactive or torpid erudition of
these organs, and of the system generally. This
sluggish state of the body, and the consequent ac
cumulation of the unhealthy substances named
prevent the proper digestion ol food, and, as a
natural consequence creates disease, which results
in prostration and finally in death.
SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP i BEA
(VEED TONIC, when taken regularly, mingle
with the food, aid the digestive organs, make good
rich blood, and as a natural consequence, give
flesh and strength to the patient. Let the faculty
say what it may, this is the only true cure for
consumption. Experience has proved it beyond
the shadow of a doubt, and thousands are to-day
| alive and well who a few years since were regar
! -led as hopeless cases, but who were induced to
try Dr. SCHENCK'S remedies, and were restor
ed to permanent health by their use.
One of the firs., steps the physician should take
; with a consumptive patient is to invigorate the
system. Now how is this to be done? Certainly
cot by giving medicines that exhaust and ener
vate—medicines that impair instead of improve
the functions of the digestive organs. Doctor
SCHENCK'S inedicii.es cleanse the stomach and
bowels of all substances which are calculated to
irritate or weaken tbem. They create an appo
; tite—promote bealtnful digestion—make good
. blood, and. as a consequence, they invigorate and
; -trcngtben the entire system, and more especially
: those parts which are diseased. If this ctnnotbe
} done, then the case must be regarded as a hopo
| less one.
If the physician finds It impossible, to make a
I CAT!K*T vrzi. NR\GRTY, if the diseased person
cannot partake of good nourishing food and prop
i '-rly digest it, it is impossible that he can gain in
flesh and strength; and it is cqual'j impossible to
bring a patient to this condition so long as the
liver is bfirdencd with diseased bile, and the
stomach laden with unhealthy slime.
Almost the first request made to the physician
by a consumptive patient is that he will prescribe
medicines that will remove or allay the cough,
night sweats and chills, which are the sure atten
dants on consumption. But this should not be
done, as the cough is only an effort of nature to
relieve itself, and the night sweats and chills are
caused by the dieeaseu lungs. The remedies or
dinarily prescribed do more harm than good.
They impair the functions of the stomach, im
pede healthy digestion, and aggravate rather
than cure the disease.
There is, after all, nothing like facts with which
to substantiate a position and it is upon facts that
Dr. SCHENCK relies. Nearly ail who have ta
ken his medicines in accordance with his direction,
have not only been cured" of consumption, but
from the fact that these medicines act with won
derful power upon the digestive organs, patients
thus cured speedily gain flesh. Cleansing the
system of all impurities, they lay the foundation
for a solid, substantial structure. Restoring these
organs to health, they create an appetite. The
food is properly assimilated; the quantity of blood
is not only increased, but is made rich and strong
and ih the face of such a condition of the system
all diseases must be banished.
Full direction, accompany each of the tncdi
citcH, go that it ia not absolutely necessary that
patients should see Dr. SCHFNCK personally,
unless tbcy desire to have their lungs examined.
For this purpose he is at his principal office. No.

A YER'S CATHARTIC PILLS.
AA FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD,
Perhaps no one medicine is so universally re
quired by everybody as cathartic, nor was ever
any before so universally adopted into use, in
every country and among all classes, as this mild
bnt efficient purgative PILL. The obvious rea
son is, that it is a more reliable and far more ef
fectual remedy than any other. Those who have
tried it, know that it cured tbem ; tbo*e who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what it does once it does al
ways—that it never fails through any fanlt or
neglect of its composition. We have "thousands
upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable
cures of the following complaints, but such cures
are known in every neighborhood, and we need
not publish them. Adapted to all ages and con
ditions in all ctioiates ; containing neither calo
mel or any deleterious drug, they may be taken
with safety by anybody. Then sugar eoating
preserves them ever fresh and makes them pleas
ant to take, while being purely vegetable no harm
can rise from their use in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on
the internal viscera to purify tbe blood and stimu
late it into healthy action---remove the obstruc
tion® of tbe stomach, bowls, liver, and other or
gans of tbe body, restoring their irregular action
to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist,
such derangements as are the first origin of dis
ease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
: the box, for the following complaints, which
i these PILLS rapidly core:—
For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION. LIST
LESSNESS, LANGUOR and LOSS OF APPE
TITE, they should be taken moderately to stim
ulate the stomach and restore its healthy tone
and action.
For LIVER COMPLAINT and its various
symptoms, BILIOUS HEADACHE, SICK
HEACACHE, JAUNDICE or GREEN SICK
NESS, BILIOUS COLIC A BILIOUS FEVERS,
they should be judiciouely taken for each case, to
correct the diseased action or remove the obstruc
tions which cause it.
For DYSENTERY or DIARRIKEA, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For RHEUMATISM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PAL
PITATION OF THE HEART, PAIN IN THE
SIDE, BACK and LOINS, tbey should be con
tinuously taken, as required, to change the die
\ eased action of the system. With sueh change
I those complaints disappear,
i ForDROPSYand DROPSICAL SWELLINGS
they should be taken in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
lor SUPPRESSION a large dose should be ta
ken as it produces the desired effect by sympathy.
As a DINNER PILL, take one or two PILLS
to promote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, restores the appetse,
and invigorates the system. Hence it is often
advantageous where no serious derangement ex

QROVEK 4 BAKKITS
J S EWI N G CHINES.
The following are selected from thousand*
of tesUmoaials of similar character, as ex
pressing the reasons for the preference for
the Gor*R 4 Backs Machines over all
others.
* * "1 like the Grower 4 Baker Machine,
in the first plane, because, if I had any other
1 should still want a Grover & Bake, j and,
having a Grorer 4 Baker, it answers the pur
pose of all the rest It does a greater variety
of work and it is easier to learn than any oth
er."— Mrs. J. C. Croly (Jenny June.)
* * "I hare bad several years' experi
ence with a Grover k Baker Machine, which
has given me great satisfaction. I think the
Grover 4 Baker Machine is more easily man
aged, and less liable to get out of order. I
prefer the Grover 4 Baker, decidedly."—
Mrs. Dr. IT at It, New York.
* * "I have had one in my family for
' some two years; and from what I know of it*
workings, and from the testimony of many of
my triends who use the name, I can hardly
see bow anything could be move complete or
give better satisfaction."— Mrs, Geu. Grant.
* * "I believe it to be the best, all things
considered, of any that I have known. It is
very simple and easily learned; the sewing
from the ordinary spools is a great advan
tage. the stick is entirely reliable; it does or
namental work beautifully; it is not liable to
get out of order." — Mrt. A. M. Spooner, 36
Bond Street, Brooklyn.
* ° "I am acquainted with the work of
the principal machines: and I prefer the Gro
ver 4 Baker to them all, because I consider
the stitch more elaatie. I have work now in
the house which was done nine years ago,
which is still good."— Mrs. Dr. McCready,
No. 43 East 2 id street, New York.
. * * "More than two-thirds of all the
sewing done in my family for the last two
years has been done by Grover 4 Baker's
Machine, and I never bad a garment rip or
need mending, except those rents which
frolicsome boys will make in whole cloth. It
is in my opinion by far tbe most valuable of
any I have tried."— Mrs. Henry Ward
Beecher.
w * "The Grover 4 Baker Sewing Ma
chine has rendered in every respect the most
perfect satisfaction. It combines so many
advantages with beauty of execution and
economy in price that it is a necessity in ev
ery household. "—Mrs. Governor Geary, Har
ritbui jh, Pa.
* * "I havu bad the Grover 4 Baker
Machine for ten or twelve years in constant
nse in' mj house. 1 have seen and known
every kind of firailj sewing, both personal
and household, accomplished upon the Gro
ver 4 Baker Machine to the entire satisfac
tion of all who were concerned."— llex. Ste
phen H. Tyng.
* * "I find the Grover 4 Baker stitch
will wear as long as the garments do—out
wear the garment, in fact. The stitch will
not break on bias seams, when stretched, as
others do; and neither does it draw the work."
—Mrs. Dr. Whiting, 4 East 24 th street, New
York.
* * "We have a Grover 4 Baker Sewing
Machine for seven years in constant use,
hemming, felling, tucking, and everything
that the fingers cao do. it is preferred over j
all others on account of its durability of work. •
elasticity and strength of stitch, ease of move
ment, and simplicity of construction." Mrs.
General Iluel.
* * "There could be no greater com
fort in a family than a Grover 4 Baker Sew
ing Machine. I have used one for the last
nine or ten years, and I think it is decidedly
the best ftmtly Sewing Machine." —M rs.Alice
B. Whip-pie. wife of Bex. Dr. Whipple, Sec. \
.tin. Mus. Association.
* "I have had an opportunity of ex-
Rtninine and using other varieties of machines;
but I very much prefer the Grover 4 Baker
stitch, foi strength, elasticity, and beauty. I
have seen no other machine so simple in its
1 construction, so easily understood and kept
in order."—Mrs. E. I). Sanborn, St. Louis.

tome four weeks with Rheumatism, and got some

tor: Sir—l procured a bottle of your Liniment
for Rheumatism, and it gives me great pleasure
in saying that after using it for two days, my

I procured one bottle of yonr medicine and used
one-half of it for Rheumatism, which effected a
permanent enre up to this time. I cannot hesi
tate in saying that it is the beat remedv I ever

BF.DFOBD, May 8, 1869. I take great pleasure
in giving my testimony to the value of-'Midale.
ton's Wonderful Palo Cure." I have been a mar
tyr to Rheumatism. For two months previous to
Feb. 25th, last, I was suffering intensely with pain
so severe, that during all that time I had not one
night of comfortable sleep. I could not put my
hands to my face, eonld not comb my own hair,
nor feed myself; but after having the Pain Cnre
applied once, I found relief ennngh to give me
i comfortable sleep, and with its steady use, I con
j tinned to get better, and now at the end of ten
weeks from its first application, I have compare
; lively free use of my hands, sleep well and can
attend to business. It has done me more good
thau all other medicines I have ever used put
together, and I cheerfully give this certificate of
its value. ELI M. FISHER.
BEDFORD, April 14,1869. Mr. W. W. Middle
ton This is to certify that I was taken with Rheu
matism, in my right shoulder, oa the evening of
the Sth inst., so that I was unable to raise my
herd to my face. I got some of your Pain Cnre
and applied it twice, and was entirely relieved.
I would recsmmend to every one who suffers with
Rheumatism to give it trial and be cured.
Yours Ac, A. F. MILLER.

gT AN DA R D PERIOD ICALS FOB 1870. ~
Republished by the Leonard Scott Pub
lulling Co., New York.
Indispensable to all desirous of being well inform
ed on the great subjects of the day.
1. THE EDINBURGH REVIEW.
This is the oldest of the series. In its mail
features it still follows in the path marked out bi
Brougham, Jeffrey, Sydney Smith, and Lord Hoi
land, its original fonnders and first contributors
2. THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW
which commences its 12Sth volume with the Jan
uary number, was set on foot as a rival to thi
RCH. It resolutely maintains its opposi
tion in politics, and shows equal vigor in ito liter
ary depaitment.
3. THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW
has just closed its 92d volume. In point of liter
ary ability this Review is fast rising to a leve
with its competitors. It is the advocate of polit
ical and religious lioeraliscn.
4. THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
now in its 51st volume, occupies a very high po
sitian in periodical literature. Passing bc'yoni
the narrow formalism of schools and parties, I
appeals to a wider range of sympathies and a
higher integrity of ccravietion.
5. BLACKWOOD'S EDINBURG MAGAZINJfc
was commenced 52 years ego. Equalling th<
Quarterlies in :U literary and scientific, depart
meats, it has won a wide reputation for the nar
ratires and sketches which enliven its pages.

| AYER'S CHERRY PECTORAL,
] For Diseases of the Throat and Lunge, tilth ae
Coughs, Colde, Whooping Cough, Bron
ehitie, Aethma, and Cuneumption.
Probobly never before in the whole history of
! medicine, has anything won ao widely aud so
deeply opon the confidence of nankind, as this
excellent remedy for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long scrips of years, and among moat
of the races of men it has risen higher and high
er in their estimation, as it has become better
known. Its uniform character and powertocure
the various affections of the lungs and throat,
have made it known as a reliable protector against
them. While adapted to milder forma of disease
and to young children, it is at the same time the
most effectual remedy that can be given for inci
pient consumption, and the dangerous affections
of the throat and lungs. As a provision against
sudden attacks of Croup, it should be kept on
hand in every family, and indeed as all are some
times subject to colds and coughs, all should be
provided with this antidote for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers of cases where the
disease seemed settled, hare been completely
cured, and the patient restored to sound health
by the Cherry Pectoral. 80 complete Is its mas
tery over the disorders of the Lung; and Throat,
that the most obstinate of them yield to it- When
nothing else could reach them, under the Cherry
Pectoral they subside and disappear.
Singers and Public Speakers find great protec
tion from it.
Asthma is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchitis is generally cured by taking the
Cheiry Pectoral in small and frequent doses,
80 generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, or do
more than assure the pnhlic that Its qualities are
fully maintained.
AYER'S AGUE CURE.
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fetter, Chill
Fever, I!eminent Fever, Dumb Ague, Period
ical or Bilioue Fever, ti c-, and indeed
all the affectione tchich ariee from
malarious, mareh, or miasmatic
poisons.
As it name implies, it does CURE, and docs not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Bis
muth, Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous
substance whatever, it in nowise injures any pa
tient. The number and importance of its cures
in the ague districts, are literally beyond account,
and we believe without a parallel in the history
of Ague medicino. Our pride is gratified by the
acknowledgments we receiTe of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other reme
dies had wholly failed.
Unacclunated persons, either resident in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will be
protected by taking the Ague Cure daily.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpidity of
the Liver, it U an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Lirer into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an excellent remedy, producing many truly re
markable on res, where other medieines had failed.
