The -Huntingdon Journal. PDXuu4gougdold. April Work. GUM and clover may be sown on any land which is suitably prepared for them, upon Winter or Spring grain, on old sod, harrowed well, or by themselves. Spring Grains, The land should never be worked when wet or tenacious. Wait for it to dry, but get the seed in as early as possible, Barley. Get good seed, and sow on old corn land as soon as the ground may be worked well, and roll. Oats.—Winnow repeatedly for heavy seed, and sow as early as the soil is fit, drilling in two and a half bushels. Wheat—Select by the fan-mill the heaviest kernels. Soak skimming off the foul seeds, in strong brine, in which is some sulphate of copper, and roll in dry slacked lime. Sow early. Flax requires land in the very best state of preparation, and should be sown as soon as the ground is warm and light. Sow one half to three bushels per acre for seed or for fine fibre. Bush in lightly. Potittoes.—Plant only in good soil as early as theground is warm, cutting the seed into pieces of two or three eyes, and letting them dry a little before planting. Peas.—Sow early in drills. plowed in or broadcast, with oats. Onions. —Make sure of good seed, and plant early. The ground must be in perfect order, rich and mellow. Carrots.—Sow the long orange, in rows twenty inches aparton rich soil, deeply worked, any time this month or next. Horses in shedding their coats need ex tra feed and carding, and the same is in a less degree true of oxen. Cows near calving should have regular feeding and carding. Give roomy stalls, a good sunning daily, and some roots. Encourage milk secre tion in new milch heifersby milking thrice a day and feeding succulent food—roots, grain grown for soiling, or mashes as a substitute. Sheep.—Give ewes at yeaning time warm sheds and sunny yards, and be even on the look-out for chilled or feeble lambs; and wrap such in warm sheep-skins, give a few spoon-fulls of warm milk punch, and lay them near the kitchen fire. If far gone give a warm bath, with brisk but gentle rubbing until dry, warming by the fire or with hot bricks. Those apparently dead will often revive and do well.—Hogs. —Secure all the young pigs which will b 3 needed for manure-makers or for pork. Avoid feeding sows rich food for ten days before and after farrowing. Feed roots, with milk-house slops and some bran. Charcoal for Horses' Wind. " Many years ago, I recollect,' says a correspondent of a London paper, 'a horse being brought into the yard of Joseph Big nal, a celebrated man for keeping hunters at Croydon. The horse was much affected in the wind, and could hardly move from distress. In a few days this animal did MB regular work as a hunter, with perfect ease and comfort to itself. Tar water was the cure. Tar is carbon, and charcoal is also carbon; charcoal in the powder is more easily given than tar water. I have tried it with more beneficial effect, and I think it stands to reason that the removal of nox ious gasses and flatulence from the stomach of the horse must improve his wind and condition. Tar is frequently given with benefit in ease of chronic diseases of the respiratory organs; but its effects are total ly different from those produced by char coal (carbon).' Raising Turkeys. The turkey is the most tender when young, and most dif4cult to raise of all the domestic fowls; yet with proper care in set ting the eggs under game hens and coop ing the,brood at night regularly, while the tuakeys are young, they may be easily reared in great abundance. Never feed the young turkeys boiled, eggs or corn meal dough, or wheat 'bred. crumbs. They need very little food of any kind under seven dns of age, and should have nothing but sour milk set in pans. At about a week or ten days give them also wheat screenings or crumbs soaked in sour milk. Let this be their only feed till they begin to feather, and then give them grain of any kind.. Tie the. hen (wbich, has , the young turkeys) to a pen" offtolerself, with a coop near by hit. so that she can enter at night to roost. At two weeks old let the hen loose to roam, and if she is a game hen she will do the work of rearing the. brood.—Prairie Partner. Vura,JAW gt Timber. Wood i en, water pipes were recently taken out in Woodward avenue, Detroit, laid there forty-three years ago. The wood is apparently as sound as ever, showing no signs of decay, even retaining the bark, and on cutting through it into the wood, the timber was found as bright and sound as ever. The pipes were made of tamarac logs, about sixteen feet in length, and eight or ten inches in diameter. The pipes were disconnected from the distributing pipes several years ago, They were embedded in clay at a depth of four or five feet. A Useful Table. To aid farmers in arriving at accuracy in ascertaining the amount of land in dif ferent fields under cultivation, the follow ing table is given by an agricultural con temporary : 5 yards wide by 968 long contains 1 acre, 10 yards wide by 484 long 1 acre. 20 yards wide by 242 long .1 acre. 40 yards wide by 121 long 1 acre. 60 feet wide by 726 long .1 acre. 110 feet wide by 396 long.. 230 feet wide by 198 long Rich Milk. 'The lowa State Register says: W. H.

Latin and Greek are apt to be underval ued in popular estimation, because we make so little direct use of them, either in read ing, writing, or speaking, and especially because they concern so little our material interest. If direct utility or material gain always determined the worth of a study, the classics would hardly be entitled to our consideration, except for purely literary and professional purposes. To the literary student or professor of languages, who studied and teaches lan guage as a science, the classics arc ' mediate value. In the legal profession some direct use is made of Latin. In the ministerial calling a necessity occurs for the study of Greek. In science both Lat in and Greek area help to the memory, if , nothing more; for scientific terms come almost wholly from these ancient tongues. If a person were to travel in some parts o Europe, as in Scandinavia and among the Slavonic people, he might even now employ his Latin in oral intercourse. Thus it may appear that the classics are neither dead nor wholly out of date ; that they have still some direct uses; that they are even at present, to some extent, both written and spoken. These advantages, however, do not reach the ordinary schol ar, who may never tread with frozen feet the snows of Lapland ; who may never be a lawyer, nor a physician, nor a teacher, nor a preacher, nor a learned professor. To him the classics are valuable only for their indirect benefits, which, indeed, out-. weigh their direct uses, and rank them among and even above those, studies es teemed the most practical. It remains briefly to vindicate the im- portance of classical study, not only as a branch of professional, or university, or collegiate education, but in the course of academic instruction. The Academy, or Classical Institute, stands between the Common School and the University or College. This is our position. We advo cate n) extreme view, which would place the classics with or back of the primary English studies. Following the primary stage of education they may be introduced with profit. First, as a means of discip line no study can be considered of equal, still less of superior, value to that of the classics. Education is a process of mental training. It is not what we put into the mind that educates, but what we get out of it. The word means a leading or draw : ing out of the mind, getting it to act, to attend, to observe and think, to reason, to judge, to feel. The worth of a boy's schooling is not his knowledge, but his ability to gain knowledge; not the ideas and facts drummed into him, but the hab its of thought and attention into which he is drilled. In this consists the great value of classical study, that it gives to the mind the most vigorous, varied and useful dis cipline; setting to work every faculty, and reason and imagination, perception and memory, and calling into play just that kind and method of thought that are re quired in practical life. Though the school-boy should never talk a word of Latin, though he should forget all he has read of Greek, yet the discipline they give abide with 'dui, and lie shall be called to use his mind every day just at lie was taught to do while studying and reading and writing his classics. Some acquaintance with the classics is necessary in the study of language. Language is the vehicle, and in great meas ure the condition, of thought. The study of language facilitates the proper use of it; and every rational being, who has any thing more than a primary education, should have some intelligent conception of the laws and forms of human speech. These can not be studied so well in living tongues, which are imperfect and changing, as in fixed and finished models of the past. Latin and Greek are the most perfect standards that man has ever produced. They have a precision and regularity and completeness not to be found in English or any other modern language. In Latin we learn the laws of grammar and the princi ples of etymology; in Greek we become acquainted with a rich and copious vocab ulary, and enter upon the study of words. Much time will be saved in acquiring a knowledge of language by consulting the 1 . classic models. Again, classical study is the best help to a knowledge of English. Every teacher knows how difficult it is to teach the art of English Composition with. any thing :like satisfactory results. Translating Latin and Greek makes. it a daily practice to select ends and form sentences. By this means a familiarity is gained with our mother tongue, not to be acquired by an occasional composition, or frequent perusal of good English authors. Moreover, Eng lish is based*, to a very great extent, on • Greek and Latin; and we learn English in these even more, as Marsh allows, than in the study of Anglo-Saxon, from which our language immediately sprung, and the study of which is almost essential to the English scholar Finally, for the subordinate aims of edu cation, such as the acquisition of knowl edge, the cultivation of taste, the harmoni ousdevelopment of all the faculties, a breadth of thought, and wealth of culture, no study can supersede that of the classics. This age of universities is against all one idea system of education. No controversy will now be waged as between Language and Mathematics and Science. All are needful, and neither can take the place of others. Mathematics have their direct uses, the far-seeing, almost infinite, appli cation of a few simple rules and principles. The discipline is mechanical and the gen eral knowledge nothing. Science has, also, manifold uses in all pertaining to the ma terial advancement of the race, and in much relating to the moral progress of mankind. It opens, too, a wide field of knowledge and culture. But its discipline is not so per fect and varied as that of language, while the range of its knowledge is not so high nor essential. '•Words are fossil thoughts," says Robertson. Science acquaints us with man. If one reveals the physical history of the globe, the other presents the records of human history. The former makes known to us the world of matter, the latter displays to us the world of mind.—lllinoi s Teacher. ..1 acre. ..1 acre. Miscellaneous, DRUGS!! DRUGS!! DRUGS!!

THE KIDNEYS The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the upper part of the lion, surrounded by fat, and con sisting of three parts, viz:" the Anterior, the In terior, and the Exterior. ( LASS. The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tM sues or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine and convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a conductor also, terminating in a single tube, and called the Ureter. The ureters are connected with the bladdcr. The bladder is composed of various coverings or tissues, divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the Lower, the Nervous and the Mucous. The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have a desiae to urinate without the ability; others urinate without the ability to retain. This frequently occurs in children. To cure these affections, wo must bring into ac tion the muscles, which are engaged in their var ious functions. If they are neglected. Gravel or Dropsy may ensue. The reader must also be made aware, that how ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to effect the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh and blood are supported from these sources. GOUT, OR RREUMATIRM.—Pain occurring in the loins is indicative of the above diseases. They oc cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky concretions. THE GRAVEL.—The gravel ensues from neglect or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or gans being weak, the water is not expelled from the bladder, but allowed to remain ; it becomes feverish, and sediment forms. It is from thin de posit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues. DROPSY is a collection of water in same parts of the body, and bears different names, according to the parts affected, viz: when generally diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca ; when of the abdomen, Aseites ; when of the chest, Hydrothorax. TREATMENT.—IIeImboId's highly concentrated compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the beet remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatism and gout affections. Under this head we have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain in passing water, Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges of water ; Strangury, or stopping of water; Hems turia, or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but increase in color, or dark water. It was always highly recommendee by the late Dr. Physick, in these affections. This medicine increases the power of digestion, and excites the-absorbents into hoalty exercise by which the watery or calcareous depositions, and all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and in flammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men, women and children. Directions for use and diet accompany. PHILAPELPH/A, PA., Feb. 2.3. 1147. 11. T. 'Minot., Druggist: Dear have been a sufferer, fur upward of twenty years, with gravel bladder and kidney affections, during which time I have used various medicinal preparations, end have been under the treatment of the most eminent Physicians, experi encing little relief. Ha;ing seen your preparation? extensively ad vertised, I consulted with my family physician in regard to using your Extract Buchu. •- • • • • .- • • - - - did this be;;use I had used all kinds of ad vertised remedies, and had found them worthless, and, some quite injurious; in fact. I despaired of ever getting well, and determined to use no reme dies hereafter unless I knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of huchu, ettbebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me end my physician as au excellent combination, and. with his advice after an examination of the article and consulting again with the druggist, I conclud ed to try it. I commenced its use abont eight months ago, at which time I was confined to my room. From the first bottle I was astonished and gratified at the beneficial effect, and after using it three weeks, was able to walk out, I felt much like writing you a full statement of my ease at that time, but thought my improvement might only be a temporary, and therefore concluded to defer and see if it would effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be of greater valve to you. and more satisfactory to MC. I am now able to report that a cure is effected after using the remedy for fiive months. I have not used any now for three months, and fell as well in all respects, as I ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor—a nice tonic and invigorator of the system. Ido not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use in such affections. M.
