What a Heavy Sod Will Do.
The sod makes the corn. This may be
taken as an axiom, as undoubted as that a
straight line is the shortest distance be
tween two points. If the sod is right the
corn can take of itself. What is wanted
is a mass of roots filling the soil to the
depth of three, four or five inches or more,
and such a mat of vegetation on the sur
face as will inevitably belong to such a
mass of roots. Now, what such an amount
of vegetable matter easily decomposed, and
such as corn leaves to feed upon would
measure, can be very easily estimated. It
would certainly be within bounds to say
that there would be on every square rod
of ground 90 cubic feet of matter equal in
fertilizing power to average barn-yard
manure. This is over three-quarters of a
cord per square rod ; and 100 rods going
to make up an acre, there would be over
120 cords of manure to the acre. This
amount of barn-yard manure would seem
perfectly bewildering to a farmer, and
would be beyond the power of many to
haul out and spread. And here it is on
the spot, in the most perfect shape possi
ble to be utilized. Does it need then, any
further argument to show clearly that a
heavy soil, is the best, cheapest and most
easily handled manure a farmer can pro
cure or invent ? the vexed question of
whether oue should plow deep or shallow
for corn, here gets a satisfactory and sim
ple reply. With such a sod or any sod,
we may say, one must plow sufficiently
deep to get enough loose soil on the top
to allow the harrow to work and make a
seed bed. No more, no less. If your sod
is such a one as we lately saw cut from a
pasture on a farm in Eastern Pennsylva
nia, the plow must necessarily go seven or
eight inches beneath the surface before
enough soil can be obtained wherein to
make a seed-bed. The average crop on
this farm is over 100 bushels of shelled
corn per acre, and tho secret, if there is
any, is in this sod. Why should it be
doubted ? It is a simple example in pro.
portion ; as sod is to sod, so corn to corn-'
And by this we may learn what a heavy
sod will do.—Agriculturist.
Watering Horses in Hot Weather,
There is a warm controversy coming up
in regard to ,the watering of horses in warm
weather. At present this controversy is
as a cloud no larger than a man's hand ;
but we are sadly mistaken if it do not
come to be one of the most stirring ques
tions of the day ; one in the face of which
even "Drilling versus Hilling Corn,"
"Deep Plowing," or any other illustrious
subject of the past, will pale.
Several writers have of late suggested
that in watering horses "while they are
warm" in summer is a very bad thing ;
others say that "more suffer and are in
jured for the want of water in summer
than from too much of it." The great
centre of attack in this new line of thought
is not Joseph Harris, although he is but
one of several who has taken in hand the
reformation of horse manners and customs
in reference to drink.
The theory of horseman in general is
that it is an evil to perspire freely in warm
weather, and that if little water be given
them, they can perspire but little. "The
more water we give them the more they
sweat." On the other hand the laboring
man in the open fields tells us be is never
so comfortable at work as when he be pre
spires freely, and he takes his glass of
cool spring water as often as he pleases.
The argument from this is that what is
good for the man is good for the beast.
Perhaps so.
We suppose the truth lies midway be-
tween these opposing forces. At any rate
the discussion will do no harm to the poor
dumb beasts interested. Our own experi
ence has been adverse to excessive water
ing. Even in the harvest field we think
moderation is advisable.— Germantown
Telegraph.
What to Live On
Berries and fruits at this season of the
year are not only precious luxuries, but
great promoters of health. They act upon
the liver, promoting that secretion natu
rally which many are in the hab it of obtain
ing only by the means of artificial medi
cines. They thus avert many a disease
resulting from a torpid condition of the
liver. Another way in which they act
beneficially is the mechanical effect their
little seeds produce in passing through the
bowels, very much the same as the water
ing of an irritated eye-ball when any hard
substance touches that delicate organ, and
this water, by dissolving the hardened
contents of constipated bowels, keep them
in a healthier state than any pill or pur
gative invented by the apothecary. There
can be no doubt that in the summer and
fall seasons people who live mainly on
fruits and berries and coarse bread can al
most ensure exemption from sickness,
while those who eat heartily of solid meats
and vegetables two or three times a day
are liable to all the diseases that flesh is
heir to.
Failures in Farming
As a general thing, when ordinary in
dustry and judgment are exercised in the
business of farming, success, to a greater
or less extent, is certain. In other occu
pations, success is not alone dependent on
these qualities, but in spite of the greatest
efforts and closest attention, failures often
occur. The fickle goddess haunts the mer
chant and the speculator, but the farmer,
secure on his welltilled fields, is not afraid
of her frowns nor courts her smile. For
,une for him has no favors to grant, and
cannot seriously assail his position. With
neither poverty or riches to interfere, he
is in the best position for exercising all
the virtues.—Hearth and Home.
A FRENCH gardener finding a piece of
woolen cloth, which the wind had lodged
in a tree, covered with caterpillars, acted
upon the idea suggested, and placed wool
en rags* several trees. Every morning
he found them covered with caterpillars,
which were easily removed.

MANY emiras of this county who, had been
persuaded to buy other kinds of Sewing Machines,
which seemed at first to work well ou a tolerable
range of work, have expressed to me their regretB
that the genuine original Elias Howe Sewing Ma
chine—the best in the world—had notbeen brought
to their notice before purchasing. And judging
from the number of offers I have, to trade Howe
machines for all other kinds, I estimate that the
people of this county have lost more than $20,000
by failing to get, at the first, the genuine Howe
Machine. It is made on sound mechanical prin
ciples, avoids rickety cog-wheels, and is so con
structed us to have perfect control by adjustment,
and provision made to restore lost motion when it
wears, thereby securing extraordinary durability,
and adaptation to the greatest range of work. Now
os my traveling agents may not be able to visit
every person in time, and as many inferior ma
chines of different kinds are still being urged on
the public, I hereby GIVE NOTICE, that before
you spend your time or money on any other ma
chine, the safest plan is, either to write to me di
rect, or inquire of agents for the famous Elias
Homes, machine, from Brown's Carpet Store, Hun
tingdon, Pa., and take no agents word for it, that
the machine is genuine, unless it has the medal
lion at the head of this article, imbedded in the
bed plate of every machine.

SYRUP OF POKE 120 0 T
Wherever Poke Root grows, it has a local repu
tation as aßlood Purifier, and for the care of
Rheumatism. With all this local reputation, and
the praise of distinguished Physicians, (Drs. Coe,
Lee, Ring, Wilson, M. Himt, Griffits, Copland and
others,) who have tested its medical powers; it
has been neglected by the profession at large, as
much through a want of a proper appreciation of
its merits, as a knowledge of the proper way to
prepare it for medical use. Dr. Oliver Crook, (a
physician who devotes his entire time to the duties
of hie profession), has fully tested the active med
ical qualities of Poke Root during the last 25
years, and unhesitatingly -pronounces it to have
MORE MERIT—for diseases depending on a deprav
ed condition of the blood,—than any and all other
articles named in the Materia Medic.. Under his
instructions our Chemists have combined the ac
tive medical qualities of Poke Root with she best
Tonic Preparation of Iron, and we offer this prep
aration to the public under the above name. •

VvINEGAR BITTERS—PUREL .
VEGETABLE—FREE FROM ALCOHOL—
DR. WALKER'S CALIFORNIA VINEGAR Razzes.
Vinegar Bitters are not a vile Fancy Drink, made
of Poor Rum, Whiskey, Proof Spirits and Refuse
Liquors, doctored, spiced, and sweetened to please
the taste, called "Tonics," "Appetizers," "Restor
ers," Ac., that lead the tippler on to drunkenness
and ruin, but are a true Medicine, made from the
native roots and herbs of California, free from all
Alcoholic Stimulants. They are the Great Blood
Purifier and a Life-giving Principle, a Perfect
Renovator and Invigorator of the System, carry
ing off all poisonous matter and restoring the
blood to a healthy condition, enriching it, refresh
ing and invigorating both mind and body. They
are easy of administration, prompt in their action,
certain in their results, safe and reliable in all
forms of disease.
No Person can take these Bitters according to
directions, and remain long unwell, provided their
bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other
means, and the vital organs wasted beyond the
point of repair.
Dyspepsia or ludgestion. Headache, Pain in the
Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Diz
ziness, Sour Fruetatione of the Stomach, Bad
Taste in the Month, Billions Attacks, Palpitation
of the Heart, Inflamation of the Lunge, Pain in
the regions of the Kidneys, and s hundred other
painful symptoms, are the offsprings of Depepsia.
In these complaints it has no equal, and one bot
tle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than
a lengthy advertisement.
For Female Complaints, in young or old, mar
ried or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or the
turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided
an influence that a marked improvement is coon
perceptible.
For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism and
Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bilious, Remit
tent and Intermittent Fevers,Diseases of the
Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Blader, there Bitters
have been most successful. Such Diseases are
caused by Vitiated Blood, which is generally pro
duced by derangement of the Digestive Organs.
They are a Gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic,
possessing also the peculiar merit of acting as a
powerful agent in relieving Congestion of the
Liver and Visceral Organs, and in Bilious Diseases.

Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustule., Boils,
Carbuncles, Ring-worms ' Scald - lend, Sore Eyes,
Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the
Skin, Rumors and Diseases of the Skin, of what-
ever 'name or nature, are literally dug up and car
ried out of the system in a short time by the one
of these Bitters. One bottle in such canes will
convince the most incredulous of their curative
effects.
Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find
its impurities bursting through the skin in Pim
ples, Eruptions, or Sores ; cleanse it when you find
it obstructed and sluggish in the vein.' • cleanse it
when it is foul; your feelings will tell you when.
Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system
will follow.
Grateful thousands proclaim Vinegar Bitters the
most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained
the sinking system.
Pin, Tapc, and other Worms, lurking in the
system of so many thousands, are effectually de
stroyed and removed. Says a distinguished phy
siologist There is scarcely an individual upon
the face of the earth whose body is exempt from
the presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy
elements of the body that worms exist, but upon
the diseased humors and slimy deposits that breed
these living monsters of disease. No system of
Medicine, no vermifuge, no anthelminities, will
free the system from worms like these Bitters.
Mechanical Diseases. Persons engaged in Paints
and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Typo-setters,
Gold-beaters, and Miners, as they advance in life,
will be subject to paralysis of the Bowels. To
guard against this take a dose of Walker's Vinegar
Bitters once or twice a week, as a preventive.
Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, which
are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers
throughout the United States, especially those of
the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois,Tennes
see, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorao, Brazos,
Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah,
Roanoke, James, and many others, with their
vast tributaries, throughout our entire country
during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably
so dining seasons of unusual heat and dryness,
are invariably accompanied by extensive derange
ments of the stomach and liver, and other abdom
inal viscera. There are always more or less ob
structions of the liver, a weakness and irritable
state of the stomach, and great torper of the bow
els, being clogged up with vitiated accumulations.
In their treatment, a purgative, exerting a power
ful influence upon these various organs, is essen
tially necessary. There is no cathartic for the
purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters,
as they will speedily remove the dark-colored
viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at
the same time stimulating the secretions of the
liver, and generally restoring the healthy flint-
Cons of the digestive organs.

kir. Walker's Colifornio Vinegar Bitters act on
all these eases in a similar manner. By purifying
the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving
away the effects of the infiamation (the tubercular
deposits) the affected parts receive health, and a
permanent cure is effected.
The properties of Dr. Walker's Vinegar Bitters
arc Aperient, Diaphoretic and Carminative, Nu
tritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Ir
ritant Sudorific, Alterative, and Anti-Bilious.
The, Aperient'and mild Laxative proprieties of
Dr. Walker's 1 , inegar Bitters are the best safe
guard in all cases of eruptions and maglignant
fevers, their balsamic, healing, and soothing prop
erties protect the humors of the fances. Their
Sedative properties allay pain in the nervous sys
tem, stomach, and bowels, either from Manta
lion, wind, colic, cramps, etc. Their Counter-Ir
ritant influence extends throughout the system.
Their Diuretic properties act on the Kidneys, cor
recting and regulating the flow of urine. Their
Anti-Bilious properties stimulate the liver, in the
secretion of bile, and its discharges through the
bibliary ducts, and are -superior to all remedial
agents, for the cure of Bilious Fever, Fever and
Ague, etc.

PERFUMERY,
Fortify the body ayainet disease by purifying all
its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can
take hold of a system thus forearmed. The liver,
the stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, and the
nerves are Tendered disease-proof by this great
invigorant.
Directions.—Take of the Bitters on going to
bed at night from a half to one-and-a-half wine
glass full. Eat good nourishing food, such as beef
steak, mutton chop, venison, roast beef, and veg
etables, and take out-door exercise. They are
composed of purely vegetable ingredients, and
contain no spirits.
