Re-seeding Meadows
The Ohio Farmer recommends the follow
ing mode of re-seeding meadows :
Spread well-rotted manure over the mead
ows, either early in the spring, or at the com
rnencemnt of the fall rains, and let this be
followed by thorough harrowing, and after
wards rolling in the spring. If meadows
are well harrowed in the latter part of April,
and grass and seed sown upon them, and then
rolled, the seed sown will readily grow.
If the meadows absolutely need plowing,
we should prefer to wait until the fall ; then
plow, and give the land the benefit of the
winter's frost. In the latter part of March,
sow barley, and after it is well up, or about
the :first of May, sow about four lbs. of red
clover, and half a bushel of orchard grass to
the acre, with a proportion of any other
grasses desired, and then roll. Or, instead
of barley, spring wheat may at the proper
time be sown, if preferred. Either of these
crops are favorable to the growth of grass,
shading it but little.
There are several reasons why meadows re
quire re-seeding. One is this; under bad
management the crop of hay is annually
carried off, while no manure is supplied to the
land to maintain its fertility. Another rea
son is, the almost universal preference given
to timothy, which though excellent is not a
perennial grass, and is therefore very diffi
cult to retain for a succession of years.
Grapes.
The opinion is held by many that our
grapes will do better if allowed a much more
extensive, so to speak, standard growth, than
is generally advised.
By many it is held, and seemingly with
cause, that as our notice of pruning and treat
ment of the vine are derived from Europeans
almost entirely, and as the grape is native
with us, and is very different in many char
acteristics from that of Europe or the East,
the system recommended and by many fol
lowed, is not the correct one for our country.
The view taken by such, has support in the
fact that vines upon houses, and running
rampant upon trees and trellises often do
well with very little care.
When we consider the cultivation of the
vine on a large scale, it comes to be a ques
tion simply of manure and labor, repaid by
fruit. If we should cover house and barns,
with vines and make broad trellises besides,
the product would not compare with a small
piece of well-cared for vineyard, the labor
would be greater, and the product less sure.
Our vines in habit and general character do
not differ essentially from those of Europe,
and they do as well under vineyard culture.
Probably the characters of our winters, and
especially of our summer weather, (between
droughts and heavy rains we divide the sea
sort; but there the climate is much moister
with less rain and less sunshine to,)—will
lead to a different mode of culture and pru
ning, though in the main European systems
of vine-dressing will prevail.
This modification, w•e think, will consist in
leaving more wood in summer pruning, and
in securing a good mulch for the roots in the
heat of summer. The idea has been suggest
ed in connection with this subject of mulch
ing=that the mulch should be removed after
August, and the ground lightened somewhat
so that the warmth of the sun may the better
penetrate the soil during the month of Sep
tember. Besides we are inclined to believe
that the system of vine-dressing of France
and Germany keeps the vines too small.—
Ohio Farmer.
How to make Good Cider.
There is hardly a tithe of cider made now
as compared with forty years ago. Many of
the old. orchards have died out, and the tem
perance reform has prevented their renewal.
The market for fine fruit has greatly expand
ed, and nearly all the trees now planted, are
for the production of market apples. It took
eight bushels of apples to make a barrel of
cider, and the barrel sold for only a dollar.
Apples now bring every year from fifty cents
to a dollar a bushel. Fruit growers can
hardly be expected to lament the change that
is so much for their pecuniary interest.
Yet cider is still made all over the country,
in small quantities, some for the apple-but
ter, some for vinegar, and , still more for a
beverage. When bottled and properly han
dled, it is as palatable, and much more
wholesome, than most of the wines of com
merce. In affections of the kidneys, it is an
excellent remedy, and should have a place
in every well-appointed cellar. It is a mat
ter of some importance, that what cider is
made, should be made in the best manner.
The apples should be well-ripened, but not
in the least decayed. Every apple with the
least speck of rot in it, should be removed,
if you wish a first-rate beverage. The de
cayed and inferior apples may be reserved
for making vinegar. Perfect cleanliness
should be observed in the grinding - process,
which should be performed two days before
pressing, and the pomace permitted to stand
and mellow in the vat, until it assumes a
deep red color. Clean dry straw should be
used in forming the cheese. If the straw be
musty, the flavor will be communicated to
the juice. If water be added, it will make .
it hard and unpleasant to the taste. The
Casks, also, in which it is put for fermenta-'
tion, should be thoroughly cleansed, and fin
ished off with a-fumigation of brimstone.—
This is done by burning a few strips of can-
VMS inside the barrel, dipped. in melted brim
stone. The fumes will penetrate all the
pores, and destroy the• must and correct the
sourness. After the fermentation is over,
draw off into clean barrels, and clarify it.—
This can be done by mixing a quart of clean
white sand with the whites of half a dozen
eggs, and a pint of mustard seed, and pour
ing the mixture into the barrel. It may
stand in the barrel, or, if a nice article is
wanted, it should be put into some quart bot
tles, and corked.
This cider will be fit to drink in case of
sickness, and will always bear a good price
in market. It retails at twenty-five cents a
bottle, and would bring at least two dollars
a dozen, by the quantity. This is much bet
ter business than to make a poor article from
decayed apples, in a slovenly manner, and
sell it for two dollars a barrel.—Cor. Anzeri
can Agriculturist.

Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative will do all this, see circular
and the following:
ANN Armort, November 6, 1856
Pam 0. J. Woon—Dear Sir: I have heard much said
of the wonderful effects of your Hair Restorative, but hav
ing been so often cheated by quackery and quack nos
trums, hair dyes, &e.. I was disposed to place your Resto
rative in the same category with the thousand and one
loudly trumpeted quack remedies, until I met you in
Lawrence county some months since, when you gave me
such assurance as induced the trial of your Restorative in
my family—first by my good wife, whose hair had become
very thin and entirely white, and before exhausting one
of your large bottles, her hair was restored nearly to its
original brown color, and had thickened and become beau
tiful and glossy upon, and entirely over the head; she
continues to use it, not simply because of its beautifying
effects upon the hair, but because of its healthful influence
upon the head and mind. Others of my family and friends
are using your Restorative, with the happiest effects;
therefore, my scepticism and doubts in reference to its
character anti value are entirely removed; and I can and
do most cordially and confidently recommend its use by
all who would have their hair restored from white or gray
(by reason of sickness or age,) to original color and beauty,
and by all young persons who would have their hair
beautiful and glossy.
Very truly anti gratefully yours,
SOLOMON MANN.
FRIEND WOOD : It was a long time after I saw you at
Blissfield before I got the bottle of Restorative for which
you gave me au order upon your agent in Detroit, and
when I got it we concluded to try it on Mrs. Mann's hair,
as the surest test of its power. It has done all that you
assured me it would do; and others of my family and
friends, having witnessed its effects, are now using and
recommending its use. to others as entitled to the highest
consideration you claim for it.
Again, very respectfully and truly, yours,
SOLOMON MANN.
I have used Prof. 0. J. Wood's Hair Restorative, and
have admired its wonderful effects. My hair was becom
ing, as I thought, prematurely gray, but by the use of his
Restorative it has resumed its original color, anti I have
nu doubt, permanently so. _

TH E LIVER INVIGORATOR
PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD.—Compounded en
tirely
.froma GUMS is one of the best purgative and Liver
medicines now before the public, that acts as a Cathartic,
easier, milkier, and more effectual than any other medicine
known. It is not only a Cathartic but a Liver remedy,
acting first on the Liver to eject its morbid matter, then
on the bowels and stomach to carry off that matter; thus
accomplishing two purposes effectually, without any of the
painful feeling experienced in the operations of most
Cathartics . . It strengthens the system at the same time
that it purges it; and when taken daily in moderate doses
will strengthen and build it up with unusual rapidity.
The Liver is one of the principal regulators of the
lininan body; and when it . performs its functions well,
the powers of the system g are fully developed. The
STom.ken is almost entirely dependent on the healthy
action of the Liven fur the C) proper performance of its
functions; when the sto- r_ z mach Is at fault, the bowels
are at fault, and the whole CI system suffers in conse
quence of one organ—the -.1.1 Liver having ceased to do
its duty. For the diseases' of that organ, one of the
proprietors has made it his 11.i.4 study, in a practice of more
than twenty years, to findsome remedy wherewith to
counteract the many de- `..." range centsto which it is
liable.

drhe following we take from the "Christian Advocate"
(Memphis, Tenn .) "The Horace Waters, Pianos are built
of the best and most thoroughly seasoned material. From
all we can learn of this establishment—said to be the lar
gest in the United States—we have no doubt that buyers
can do as well, perhaps better, at this than at any other
house in the Union!'
"Mr. Waters has been long established and is favorably
known. We speak from experience when we assure our
readers that his prices are below those usually charged
for articles in his line."—Jacksonian, 1.1': J.
"Your instruments are a sensible improvement upon
American Pionos, and an honor to the skilful manufacturer.
There is no doubt but they will be appreciated by the pub
lic and all admirers of true merit.—Oscar
The treble is clear, pure, powerful, and very melodious,
the base is deep, rolling, and sonorous: the middlepart is

rarely achieved."—Henry C. Watson.
For power of tone, depthof brass, and brilliancy of tre
ble, together with accuracy of touch, they are equal to any

them to those wishing to purchase.—lr. C. Taylor.
"Our friends will find at Mr. Waters' store the very

has succeeded in attaining."—N. Y. .ifusicat World and
"There is one which, for beauty of finish and richness
and brilliancy of tone, equals, it' it does not excel, any
thing of the kind we have even seen. It is from the estab

Waters' Pianos arc excellent as well as cheap; hot, he has
those of other makers, as well as second-hand ones, capi
tally adapted to limited means."
Says the " Knoxville (Tenn.) Standard :" "Mr. Waters
has long expertence in the business, and has gained a rrpu
tation to/surpassed for selling the best instruments in the
country."
The "Sunny Souris" reaches us with the following;—
" This gentleman is one of the most extensive music-deal
ers in the Union. His pianos and melodeons have ob
tained great celebrity for their excellent tone and durable
qvality."
Says the "Valley City Advocate:" "We have taken a
look at a piano which has just arrived from the celebrated
establishment of Horace Waters, and must say that for
tone and beauty of finish, it surpasses any we ever saw
for.the price."
Horace Waters' Piano-Fortes mere of full, rich, and even
tone, and powerful.—New York Musical Review.
"They are fully equal to any of the kind I have seen in
the United States, and far superior 'to those of a similar
make I saw in England."—tiro. Washbourne Morgan.
"I take great pleasure in announcing them instrtunents
of a superior quality, both in tone and touch."—Aiwast
Goekel.
We don't know that we ever saw better pianos—pianos
better made, of finer tone and of greater power—than we
met with yesterday at the fair in the Crystal Palace. The
finest among them are those placed there by Horace Wa
ters, whose pianos are always popular."—Tinuts and Me,s
sever.
'The Horace Waters' Pianos now on exhibition at the
Fair, have attracted a surprising degree of attention ;
they are unrivalled by any other - instrument, in perfect
qualify of tone and power."—Courier.
"The Horace Waters' Pianos are among the most cele
brated and improved makes of the day. For power, bril
liancy and richness of tone, elasticity of touch, and
beauty of finish, they will not suffer in comparison with
those of any other manufacturer.'—T homas Baker.
The "State Register" contains the following: "For
beauty of finish, sweetness and brilliancy of tone, they
undoubtedly surpass anything of the kind ever brought
before the public. They equal in tone the grand piano;
and being constructed of the best and most thoroughly
seasoned material, they are capable of resisting the action
of any climate."
Says the "Evening Mirror': They (the Horace Waters'
Pianos) are very superior instruments mid the maker
nifty confidently challenge comparison with any other
mantifitetnrer in the country, as regards their outward
elegance, and quality of tone and power."
Irri„P. BRUNKER is agent for the sale of these Pianos,
foe Huntingdon county. Ho will attend to the unpacking
and putting up of them, and keeping them in tulle, for
1 a year, free of charge. He will also see that every pur
dieser is satisfied. They will be sold as low as ally other
Pianos in the United States. Sept. 9, 1857.
