The Hand that Holds the Plow,
DEDICATED TO TILE FARMERS OF AMERICA.
[The following song is timely and to the
point, and will awken enthusiasm wherever
it is sung :)
Brothers of the pl,w,
The power is with you;
The world in expectation waits
For action prompt and true;
Oppression stalks abroad,
AL : mop dies abound,
Their giant hands already clutch
The tillers of the ground.
Chorus—Awake! then awake !
The great world must be fed,
And Heaven gives the power
To the hand that holds the bread.
Yes, Brothers of the plow !
The people 'lnust" be fed,
And Heaven gives the power
To the hand that holds the bread,
Brothers of the plow!
In calm and quiet might
You've waited long and patiently
For what was yours by right—
A fair reward for toil,
A free and open field,
An honest share for wife and home
Of what your harvests yield.
Chorus—Awake! then awake ! &c.
Brothers of the plow !
Come, rally once again :
Come gather from the prairies wide.
The hillside and the plain ;
Not, as in days of yore,
With trump of battle's sound—
But come and make the world respect
The tillers of the ground.
Chorus—Awake ! then awake! &c.
The Value of the Roller,
The Commissioner of Agriculture, in an
article on agricultural machinery, makes
the following jnst remarks on the use of
the roller. He says : "Of all the imple
ments for use upon the farm there is no
one which tells of greater benefits than
the roller. It pulverizes the clods, smooths
the surface for the scythe or the reaper,
and compacts the earth about the seed and
roots of plants ; but above all, and of more
importance than all, it destroys vermin.
That the earth should be made fine is the
object of plowing and harrowing. A roller
greatly conduces to this. That small
stones and rough places should be driven
out of the way of the scythe or mower, is
a desideratum which every farmer will ap
preciate, and when the seed is first sown,
and when the frosty winter or thawing of
the spring have loosened its growth upon
the surface it may be imagined how it
would be benefitted by giving it a bed in
the earth again. But its most useful pur
pose is le-s satisfactorily expl+ined, for ith
only proof is only found in the experience
of its use. All know that most of the
vermin which afflicts the farmers' crop has
its resting and often its breeding place in
the earth ; there, and upon the young and
tender plant, where it deposits its eggs.
The cut warm destroys corn at the sur
face ; the Hessian fly deposits eggs upon
the wheat blade, which often falls to the
ground.
The earth, in fine, is fully charged with
the eggs and the embryo of vermin of all
sorts, in all stages, and it may readily be
imagined what an amount of destruction
would follow the passage of a heavy roller
over the surface.
Hiring Farm Men
That farmer is fortunate who has two
or three active and intelligent sons able
and willing to take held of farm work,
Make much of them. Those who hove to
hire should he willing to pay good
wages for good men. We do not suffi
ciently discriminate. Wages are high ;
but good men are not likely to take much
less than they got last year. Farmers are
very remiss in one thing; they do not in
sist on having "a, character" from the last
employer.
It should be a hard matter for a had
man, or one who left his employer during
the busy season, to get another place.
Farmers should combine to drive an un
faithful servant from the neighborhood.
Pay good wages, and treat them with
kindly consideration, but insist on having
respectful behavior, and good work. Know
what a good day's work is, and get it; but
do not ask for more. An unreasonable
employer makes discontented servants. If
they do well, tell them so ; if not, reprove
anildly_but firmly.
Transplanting Evergreens.
The best season for transplanting is
June or July. The Hon. Samuel Walker,
once President of the Massachusetts Hor
ticultural Society, who *woad then exten
sive nurseries in Roxbury, transplanted
100 arbor vitae trees for the writer on the
Ist day of August, warranting every one
to live, and only one or two died. They
should be watered at the time and mulched,
bat not watered again unless very dry
weather and then not oftener than once a
week, as they do-not require as much wa•
ter as deciduous trees, and may be killed
by too much. The late N. P. Willis
thanked the writer for the above informa
tion, and said he bad tried the experiment
at Idlewild on the Hudson, with perfect
success, many years ago.
Com. ASHES are only beneficial to trees
when applied as a mulch where the trees
stand in grass. At least we have never
found them useful in any other way, when
applied alone. They keep the grass down,
if applied in sufficient quantity, and the
soil loose. But they are excellent to mix
with any kind of fermenting manure.
They are very good deodisers or absor
bents, and can be used with the most
profit in this manner.—Rural New York

of the diseases for which they are recommended.
Invalids, try-them, and be convinced of the truth
of what we assert. It is but ten months sines they
were first offered to the public, and to-day they

Columbia. Surely they are not humbugs or they
would'nt be so highly commended by the intelli

land. They arc classified so as to meet the most
difficult diseases for which they are offered ; not
one medicine for all the diseases humanity is

DR. CROOK'S WINE OF TAR !
•
Ten years of a public test has proved Dr. Crook's
Wine of Tar to have more merit than any similar
preparation ever offered to the public. It is rich
in the medicinal qualities of Tar, and unequaled
fur disease of the
THROAT AND LUNGS,
performing the most remarkable mires. It effectu
ally cures all COUGHS and COLDS. It hos cured
so many cases of
ASTHMA AND BRONCHITIS,
that it has been pronounced a specific for these
complaints. For
PAINS IN THE BREAST, SIDE OR BACK,
GRAVEL OR KIDNEY DISEASE,
disease of the Urinary Organs, Jaundice, or any
Liver Complaint it has no equal.
It is also &superior Tonic, restores the Appe
tite, strengthens the System, restores the V. eak
and Debilitated, causes the Food to Digest, re
moves Dyspepsia and Indigestion, prevents Mal
&rims Fevers, Givbs tone to your System.
AND IRON
That Pale, Yellow, Sickly Looking Skin is chang.
ed to one of freshness and health. Those
Diseases of the Skin, Pimples, Pustules, Blotches
and Eruptions are relllOVed. Scrofula,
Sere/ loos Diseases of the Eyes,
White Swelling, Ulcers,
Old Sores
or any kind of Humor rapidly dwindle and disap
pear under its influence. In fact it will do you
more good, and cure you more speedily than any
and all other preparations combined. What is it ?
IT IS NATURE'S OWN RESTORER !
A soluble oxyd of iron combined with the medici
nal properties of Poke Root divested of all diem
greeable qualities. It will cure any CHRONIC
or LONG STANDING DISEASE whose real or
direct eau.° is
BAD BLOOD, RHEUMATISM, PAINS IN LIMBS OR
BONES, CONSTITUTION BROKEN DOWN
by Mercurial or other poisons, are all cured by it.
ForSYPHILIS, or SYPHITRIALTA INT, there is
nothing equal to it. A trial will prone it. Ask for
