WHAT I KNOW OF FARMING.
BY HORACE CRKELKY.
AIM.- The Possibilities of Irrigation. I
I have given an account of my poor, little
experiment in Irrigation, because it is one
which almost every farmer can imitate nd
improve npon, however narrow h>s domain
and slender his fortune. I presume there are
Half a Million homestead* in the United
States which bate natural facilities for Irri
gation at least equat to mine, many of them
far greater. A long either slope of the Alle
ghenies, throughout a district at least a thou
sand miles long by three hundred wide, near
ly every farm might be at least partially irri
gated hy means of a dnm costing from twen
ty-five lo cne hundred dollars; ao might at
least half the farms in New England and our
uwn State. On the prai*:t, the plana must
he different, and the expenses probably great
er., but the results obtained would bounteous
ly reword the outlay. I shall not aee the day,
but there are 'hose now living who will see
it, when A'tesian wells will be dug at points
where many neres may be flowed from a gen
lie swell in tbe midst of a vast plain, or at
the head of a fertile valley, expressly, or at
least mainly, that its waters may be led across
that plain, adown that talley, in irrigating
streams and ditches, until they have been
wholly drank up by the soil. I have seen
: gle wells in California that might be made
Hi irrigate snthetently hundreds of acres, by
the aid of a reservoir into which their waters
. ould be discharged when Ike soil did not re
quire them, and there retained until tbe
thirsty earth demanded them.
An old arid successful tarmer in my neigh
borhood affirms that Water is the cheapest
and best fertilizer evor applied to the soil.
If thin were understood to mean that no oth
er i.-> needed or can be profitably applied, it
would be erroneous. Still, I think it clearly
true that the annual product of most farm*
can be increased, and tbe danger of failure
averted, more chiefly by the skilfull applica
tion of water than by'.bat of any fertilizer
whatever. Plaster (Gypsum) possibly except-
I took a run through VirginiaJast Summer,
not fur from the lit of August. That State
was then suffering intense!/ from drouth, as
she continued to do for some weeks there
r.tter. I am qui'e sure that I saw on her
thirsty plains and hill-sides not less than
three hundred thousand acres planted with
Indian Com, whereof the average product
could uot exceed ten bushels per acre, while
most of it would fall far below that yield, and
there were thousands of acres that would not
produce ore sound ear ! Every one deplored
the failure, correctly attributing it to the pre
vailing drouth. And yet. I passed hundreds
it not thousands of places where a very mod'
erate outlay would have sufficed to dam a
stream or brooklet issuing from between two
spurs of the Blue Ridge, or the Allegheniea,
to that a refreshing current of the copious
and fertilizing floods of Winter and Spring,
ws.rmed by the fervid suns of June and Jifly,
could hare been led over broad fields lying
below, so as to vanquish drouth and insure
gtnerous harvests. Nay: I feel confident
that 1 ould in many places have constructed
rc.de works in a week, after that drouth began
to be felt, that would have saved and made
the Corn on at least a portion of the planted
acres through which the now shrunken brooks
danced and laughed idly down to the larger
streams in the wider and equally thirsty Tal
leys. Of course, I know that this would have
been imperfect irrigation—a mere stop gap
that the cold spring-water of a parehad Sum
mer cannot fertilize as the hill-wash of Winter
and Spring, if thriftily garnered and warmed
through and through for sultry weeks, would
do : yet I belidve that very many farmers
might ven then, have secured partial crop*
by such irrigation as was still possible, had
they, even at the eleventh hour, done their
best to retrieve errors of the past.
For the present, I would only counsel every
farmer to give his land a careful scrutiny
with a view to irrigation in the future. No
une is obliged to do nny faster than his
' cans will justify; and yet it may be well to
have a clear comprehension of all that oiay
ultimately be done to profit, even though
much of it must long remain unaltempted.
In many cases, a stream may be dammed for
two or three months of each year, if it shall
c.ppear that this use is quite consistent with
its employment in irrigation, whew the for
mer alone would not justify the requisite out
lay. It is by thus making one expense ob
serve two e lite independent but not incon
sistent purposes that success is attained in
her pursuits; and so it may be in farming.
As yet, each farmer ibust study his own re
sources with intent to make the moat of them.
a manageable stream crosses or issues from
his and, he must measure its fall thereon,
study the lay of the land, and determine
whether he can or caDnot, at a tolerable cost
muse that stream available in the irrigation
Y least a portion of his growing crops when
they shall need water and the skies decline
to supply it. On many, I think on most,
>rms situated amo lg kills, or upon the slopes
of mountains, something may be done in this
way—done at once, and with immediate prof
it. But this is rudimentary, partial, frag
mentary, when compared with the irrigation
which yet shall be. lam confident that there
are points on the Carson, the Humbolt, the
V. eber. the South Platte, the Cache- le-Poud
re, and many less noted streams which thread
the centra! plateau of our continent, where
an expenditure of SIO,OOO to $60,000 may be
judiciously made in a dam, locks and canals,
:or the purposes of irrigation and milling
combined, with a moral certainty of realizing
bUy per cent, annually on the outlay, with a
steady increase in the value of the property.
It my eye did not deceive roe, there is one
I ;t on the Carson where a dam that need
not cost $">0,0o0 would irrigate one hundred
square miles of rich plain which when I saw
t f eleven years ego, grew nought but the
worthless shrubs of the desert, simply be
cause nothing else could endure the intense,
abiding drouth of each Nevada Summer
Much palpable invitations to thrift cannot re
main forever unimproved.
lu regions like this, where Summer rains
are the rule rather than the exception, the
iwed of irrigation is not so palpable, since we

often and too copiously: but experience would

JJOW TO CUBE CONSUMPTION,
THE PHILOSOP9Y OF DB. BCHENCK'S
GREAT MEDICINES—WiII people nerer learn
to know that a diseased lirer and stomach neces
sarily disease the entire system? The plainest
Principle ef eommon senee teach thij, and yet
there are hundreds who ridicule the idea, and
continue ia the couree which almost inevitably
biingathem prematurely to the grave. Living
as the majority of people do. at complete variance
with the laws of nature, it inußt be apparent to
all, that sooner or later, nature will revenge her
self. Hence we Ind that persons who indulge to
txceat in the use of very rieh or indigestible food
or intoxicating drinks, invarisibly pay a heavy
penalty in the end. The stomach becomes disor
dered and refuses to act; tha liver falls to perform
its functions, dyspepsia and its attended* evils
follow, and still the suffering individuals persist
in clinging to the thoroughly exploded ideas of
the past. Dr. SCHBNCK'S medicines are recom
mended to all inch. They bring sure and certain
reliaf wherever they are 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 tbam. Let those who
are skeptical on this point, and who haTe permit
ted interested persons to prejudice them against
these now celebrated remedies for Consumption,
discard their prejudices, and be governed by the
prineiples of reason and common sense. If the
system is disordered depend upon it, in nine cases
out of ten the scat of the disorder will be found
in the stomach and liver. To cleanse and invig
orate the stomach and to stimulate the liver to
healthy action, use
SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS.—Tho dai
ly increasing demand for thess pills is the best
evidence of their value. Thousands upon thou
sands of boxas are sold daily. Why? Simply
because they act promptly and efficiently. In
valids who may not And it convenient to call on
Dr. BCHENCK io person are informed that full
and ccmplete directions for use accompany each
package of the
MANDRAKE PILLS, PULMONIC SYRUP
AND SEA-WEED TONIC. —These medicines
will enre consumption unless the lungs are sr 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
I Dr. SCHENCK'S medicines effect their wonder
ful cares of consumption?"
The answer is a simple one. They begin their
work of restoration by hi nging the stomach, liver
and bowels into an active healthy condition. It
ia 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 hare re
sulted from the inactive or torpid condition of
theao organs, and of the aystcm generally. This
slugtrish state of the body, and the consequent ac
cumulation of the unhealthy substances named
prevent the proper digestion ot food, and, as a
natural consequence creates disease, which results
in prostration and finally in death.
S-HENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP A 6EA
IVEED TONIC, when taken regularly, mingle
with the food, aid the digestive organs, make good
rich blood, and aa 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
ded 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 first steps the physician should take
with a consumptive patient is to invigorate tbe
system. Now how is (his to be done? Certainly
not by giving medicines that exhaust and ener
vate—medicines that impair instead of improve
the functions of the digestive organs. Doctor
SCHENCK'S medicines cleanse the stomach and
bowels of all substances which are calculated to
irritate or weaken them. They create an appe
tite—promote healthful digestion—make good
blood, and, as a consequence, tbev invigorate and
strengthen the entire system, and more especially
those parts which are diseased. If this cannot be
done, then the case must be regarded as a hope
less one. .
If the physician finds it impossible to make a
PATIKST FEET, HCHSRT, if the diseased person
cannot partake of good nourishing food and prop
erly digest it, it is impossiblo that he can gain in
fiesh and strength; and it is equally impossible to
bring a patient to this condition so long as the
liver is burdened 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 congh,
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 diseased 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 fact; that
Dr. SCHKNCK relies. Nearly all 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, thny create an appetite. The
food is properly assimilated; the quantity of blood
is not only increased, but is made rich and strong
and in the face of such a condition of the system
all diseases must be banished.
Full directions accompany each of the medi
cines, so that it is not absolutely necessary that
patients should see Dr. SCHFNCK personally,
unless they desire to have their lungs examined.

A YER'S CATHARTIC PILLS,
-tA- 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, is
every country and among all classes, as this mild
but efficient purgative PILL. The obvious rea
son is, that it is a more reliable and far more cf.
factual remedy than any other. Those who bavo
tried it, know that it cured them ; those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friend",
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
arc known in every neighborhood, and we uccl
not publish them. Adapted to all ages and con
ditions in all climates ; containing neither calc
ine! or any deleterious drug, they may be taken
with safety by anybody. Then sugar coating
preserves them ever fresh and makes them pleas
ant to take, i'e being purely vegetable no harm
can rise from tboir U3e in any quantity.
They operate by their powerful influence on
the internal viscera to pnrify the blood and stimu
late it into healthy action—remove the obstruc
tions of the stomach, bowls, liver, and other or
gans of the body, restoring their irregular action
to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist,
such derangements as are the Srst origin of dis
ease.
Minute directions are given in the wrapper on
the box, for the following complaints, which
these PILLS rapidly cure :---
For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION, LIBT
LESSNESS, LANGUOR and LOSS OF APPE
TITE, they should be taken moderately to stim
ulate the stomach and roatore its healthy tone
and actior .
For LIVER COMPLAINT and its various
symptoms, BILIOUS HEADACHE, SICK
HEACACHE, JAUNDICE or GREEN SICK
NESS, BILIOUS COLIC A BILIOUS FEVERS,
they should be judiciously taken for each case, to
correct the diseased action or remove the obstruc
tions which cause it.
For DYSENTERY or DIARRHCEA, but one
mild dose is generally required.
For RHEUMATISM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PAL
PITATION OF THE HEART, PAIN IN THE
SIDE, BACK and LOINS, they should be con
tinuously taken, as required, to change the dis
eased action of the system. With such change
those complaints disappear.
For DROPSY and DROPSICAL SWELLINGS
they should be takeD in large and frequent doses
to produce the effect of a drastic purge.
For 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 bealtby action, restores tbe sppotite,
and invigorates the system. Hence it is often
advantageous where no serious derangement ex
ists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds
that a dose of these Pills makes him feel decided
ly better, from their cleansing and renovating ef
fect on tho digestive apparatus.

QROVER k BAKER'S
SEWING MACHINES.
The following are selected from thoueands
of testimonials of similar character, as ex
pressing the reasons for the preference for
the GKOVKR £ FISIA Machines over all
others.
* * "I like the Grover & Baker Machine,
in the first plaae, because, if I had any other
I should still want a Grover & Baker; and,
having a Grover A 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. Croty ( Jenny June.)
* "I have bad several years' experi
ence with a Grover & Baker Machine, which
has given me great satisfaction. I think the
Grover A Baker Machine is more easily man
aged, and less liable to get out of order. I
prefer the Grover A Baker, decidedly."—
Mrs. Dr. Watts, New York.
* * "I have had one in my family for
some two years; and from what I know of its
workings, and from the testimony of many of
my friends who use the same, I can hardly
see how anything could be more complete or
give belter satisfaction."— Mrs. Gen. Grant.
* * "I believe it to be the belt, all things
considered, ot any that I have known. It is
very Bimple and easily learned; the sewing
from the ordinury 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." — Mrs. A. M. Spooner, 36
Bond Street, Brooklyn.
* ° "I am acquainted with the work of
the principal machines; and I prefer the Gro
ver A Baker to them all, because I consider
the stitch more elastic. I have work now in
the bouse which was done nine years ago,
which is still good."— Mrs. J>r. McCready,
A'o. 48 Ku.it 2ilt atrcef, -A'tic York.
*_ * "More than two-thirds of all the
sewing done in my family for the last two
years has been done by Grover A 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 the most valuable of
any I have tried."—Jfr#. Henry Hard
Beecher.
* * ''Tin; Grover A Oaker Sewing Ma
chine baa 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
risburgh, I'u.
* * "I have had the Grover A Baker
Machine for ten or twelve years in constant
use in my house. I have seen and known
every kind ni family sewing, both personal
and household, accomplished upon the Gro
ver k Baker Machine to the entire satisfac
tion of all who were concerned."— Rev. Ste
phen If. Tyng.
* * "I find the Grover k Baker stitch
wili 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 k Baker Sewing
Machine for seven years in constant use,
hemming, felling, tucking, and everything
that the fingers can do. It is preferred over
all others on account of its durability of work,
elasticity and st rength of stitch, ease of move
ment, and simplicity of construction." —Mrs.
General Duel.
* * "There could be no greater com
fort in a family than a Grover A Baker Sew
ing Machine. 1 have used one for the last
nine or ten years, and I think it is decidedly
the best family Sewing Machine."— Mrs. Alice
It. Whipple, wife of Rev. Dr. Whipple, See.
Am. Miss. Association.
* * "I have had an opportunity of ex
aminine and using other varieties of machines;
but I very much prefer the Grover A Baker
siitch, for strength, elasticity, and beauty. I
have seen no other machine so simple in its
construction, so easily understood and kept
in order."—Mrs. E. D. Sanborn, St. Louis.

This wonderful remedy is composed entirely of
vegetable ingredients. There are no injurious

BEDFORD, May 18, 1869. This is to certify that
I have used Middleton's Liniment for the Rheu
matism, which 1 had in my right shoulder so bad
that I could not get my hand to my head without
great pain, and after a few applications was en
tirely relieied. L. F. DART.
BEDFORD, May 1, 1860. Mr. Middleton: Dear
Sir:—Mrs. Bowser was in much suffering for
some four weeks with Rheumatism, and got some
of your Pain Cere, and tbe first night I applied
it it eased the pain; and after keeping on using it
for two weeks she was restored to health. I feel
it to be my duty, as it is a pleasure, to write this
recommendation tor the honefit of others.
JACOB BOWSER.
BEDFORD, May 16, 1869. Mr. W. W. Middle
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
rheumatism was completely relieved. My sister
was suffering, st the same time, with Xnfiamatory
Rheumatism in her right hand and wrist—after
using it for several days she was relieved. I con
sider it the beet remedy I ever heard of.
JOHN KEEFE.
BEDFORD, May 24, 1569. This iA to certify
that I have used one bottle of Middleton's Lini
ment, for Rhcumstism, and think it a good cure,
and would recommend ir. to all persons that are
afflicted with the abave disease.
AUGUSTUS GARVER.
BEDFORD, May 26, 1869. Mr. Middloton: Sir—
I procured one bottle of your medicine and used
one-half of it for Rheumatism, which effected a
permanent cure up to this time. I cannot hesi
tate in saying that it is the best remedy I ever
used. A. B. CARN.
BEDFORD, May 8, 1569. I take great pleasure
in giving my testimony tc the value of -'Midule
ton's Wonderful Pain Cure." I have been a mar
tyr to Rheumatism. For two months previous to
Feb. 25th, last, I was sufforingintensely with pain
so severe, that during all that time I had not one
night of comfortable sleep. I conld not put my
hands to my face, could not comb my own hair,
nor feed myself; but after having the Pain Cure
applied once, I fount relief enough to give me
comfortable sleep, and with its steady use, I con
tinued to get better, and now at the end of ten
weeks from its first application, I have compara
tively free use of my hands, sleep well and can
attend to business. It has done me more good
than ail other medicines I have ever nsed put
together, and I cheerfully g,ve 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, or. the evening of
the Bth inst., so that I was unable to raise my
hand to my face, I got some of your Pain Cure
and applied it twice, and was entirely relieved.
I would recommend to every one who snffers with
Rheumatism to give it a trial and be cured.
Yours Ac, A. F. MILLER.
ERDFORO, May 17, 1869. Mr. Middleton: Dear
Sir—l have used several bottles of your medicine
in my family, and find it to be all you claim for
it. Yours, troly, JOHN IIAFER.
BEDFORD, May 13, 1869. This is to certify that
I have used ''Middlemen's Pain Cure," for Kheu
mutism, and was very much benefitted by it.

gT ANDARD PERIODICALS FOR 1870. "
Republished by the Leonard Scott lhib
lishing Co., New York.
Indispensable to all desirous of being well inform
ed CD the great subjects of the day.
1. THE EDINBURGH REVIEW.
This is the oldest of the series. In its main
features it still follows in the path marked out by
Brougham, Jeffrey, Sydney Smith, and Lord Hol
land, its original founders and first contributors.
2. THE LONDON QUARTERLY REVIEW,
which commences its 128 th volume with the Jan
uary number, was set on foot as a rival to the
EDISICRGH. It resolutely maintains its opposi
tion in politics, and shows equal vigor io its liter
ary depaitment.
3. THE WESTMINSTER REVIEW
has just closed its 92d volume. In point of liter
ary ability this Roview is fast rising to a love!
with its competitors. It is the advocate of polit
ical and religious liberalism.
4. THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW,
now in its 51st volume, occupies a very high po
sitien in periodical literature. Passing beyond
the narrow formalism of schools and parties, it
appeals to a wider range of sympathies and a
higher integrity of conviction.
5. BLACKWOOD'S EDIXBURG MAGAZINE
was commenced 52 years ago. Equalling the
Quarterlies in its literary and scientific depart
ments, it has won a wide reputation for the nar
ratives and sketches which enliven its pages.

CHERRY PECTORAL,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs, such an
Coughs, Void*, Whooping Cough, Ilron
ehitis, Asthma, and Consumption.
Probobly never before in the whole history of
medicine, has anything won so widely and so
deeply upon the confidence of mankind, as this
excellent remedy' for pulmonary complaints.
Through a long series of years, and among most
of the races of men it has risen higher and high
er in their estimation, a it has become better
known. Its uniform character and power to cure
the various affections of tbe lungs and throat,
have made it known as a reliable protector against
thorn. While adapted to milder forms 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 eve:/ 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. So complete is its mas
tery over tbe disorders of the Lungs 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
cared by it.
Bronchitis is generally cuted by taking the
Cheiry Pectoral in small and frequent doses,
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here, or do
more than assure the public that its qualities are
fully maintained.
AYER'S AGUE CURE.
For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fever, Chill
Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Period
ical or Bilious Fever, Ac., and indeed
all the affections which arise from
malarious, marsh, or miasmatic
poison*.
As it name implies, it does CURE, and doesnot
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 medicine. Our pride is gratified by the
acknowledgments We receive of the radical cures
effected in obstinate cases, and where other reme
dies had wholly failed.
Unaeclimated persona, 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 ir an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy activity.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it
is an exoellent remedy, producing many truly re
markable cures, where other medicines had failed.
