To apply or not to apply commercial fertilizers is one of the most important questions of the dry among farmers of our older States who appreciate • the necessity of immediate action in the restoration of their lands, and who cannot- command farm yard manure in sufficient quantity to accomplish this. In many portions of the South, especially east of the Mississippi valley, and in the Eastern States, artificial manures have been experimented with to a considerable extent. Reports from equally trustworthy sources are widely diverse as to results. One who has tried Pervian guano, for instance, failed to re ceive any benefits therefrom and naturally condemned it ; another doubles his crop with its assistance and therefore extolls it. Thus opinions vary all the way through the list. The difference of opinion is due sometimes to the adulteration of the mate rials employed, but largely to drawing con clusions without considering all sides of the subject, and simply proves the impera tive necessity of exercising common see, both in the selection and application of the fertilizers. To start with, the differ ence in soils should be remembered. Lands vary widely in their capacity fir supply ing crops with fool, and, cotiscquently, in their demand for fertilizers. Some soils will bring good results for the fertilizers given them ; others unless previously pre pared by tillage, drainage, irrigation, &c., will not. The only correct way to ascer tain by careful observation and experi ments what a soil wants, and then supply it. The provident farmer, when he is in doubt in this matter, cultivates the bulk of his crops under the most approved of old methods, testing in a small way as many new practices as possible until such a time as he feels confident he has found what suits his special requirements. The results of the experience of those who have gone over -he same ground in ad vance is not only of interest but judic iously considered and applied, may be of great benefit to a novice in the use of com mercial fertilizA-s. The American farmer gains a hint, at least, toward the right di rection when he learns that by far the largest quantity of all manufactured ma nures in England is applied for root crops. There are many districts where turnips and seeds are grown with no other manure than mineral supherphosphate, at the rate of three to four hundred weight per acre. On cold, clay soils, in a fair agricultural condition, according to Dr. Voeleker, three hundred weight of a mineral superphos phate containing on an average twenty one to twenty-five per cent. of soluble phos phate will produce at Fast as heavy a crop of seeds and turnips as a manure contain ing in addition to soluble phosphate of lime, ammonia or nitrogenous matter. On light land, however, says the same authori ty, the use of purely phosphatic manure cannot be relied upon for producing a good crop of roots. On such land artificial ma nures are seldom used alone, but generally in conjunction with a dressing of barnyard manure. Dissolved bones, Peruvian guano, compound artificial manures containing from two to three per cent. of ammonia are preferred to mineral superphosphate as a manure for root crops on high land and on foamy soils out of condition, by Eng lish cultivators. Nitrate of soda has been used of late years in England with con siderable advantage in addition to dissolved bones, or a mixture of superphosphate and some salt as a: mixture for marigolds. • Curing Sick Chickens and Prevent ing Disease. A writer in the Pi•actical Btrnzer, in the course of a lengthy article, says : After we had lost nearly every chicken off the farm, and tried all the remedies we could hear of, some one sent word from some distance, to try cattle powders. Of course it was done, and the result, not another chicken sickened. For a while I put as much as three tablespoonfuls in a quart of meal, mixed, with hot water, and gave it to a dozen fowls every day; then not so much, and only once or twice a week ; then once in a week or two weeks, and I never saw a sick or droopy chicken while I did so. But after a time I neglected it, and the result was, in time the chickens commenced dropping off again, but stopped as soon as I recommenced giving the powders. This was repeated a number of times, but in the last three years I not seen a symptom of the kind. I still keep a paper of powder on hand, and once in a while, when I think of it, I give them a dose. MR. K P. BEEBE recently explained to the members of the Union County (N. J.) Farmers' Club his plan for renovating an old orchard, and making it more product. ice. lie first sees to it that the trees are liberally fed. "Then," he said, "in the spring of the year I .crape off all the rough bark with a spade, and wash with a solu tion of a pound of potash with four gallons of water, applying with a broom ; remove the old limbs, a portion at a time, and supply their place with young, healthy wcod, and in two years I have a fine, healthy.looking tree, with healthy fruit. When large limbs are removed, cut them with a slant, so that the water will nit long remain to make the wood rot, and wax, oil or paint them over till the wound is covered with new bark. Trees should not be pruned later in the season than when in blossom." PARSNIP FRITTERS.—Scrape and halve the parsnips, boil tender in hot, salted water, mash smooth, picking out the woody bits ; add a beaten egg to every four parsnips, a teaspoonful of flour, pep per and salt at your discretion, and enough milk to make into a thick batter; drop by the spoonful into hot lard and fry brown. Drain into a hot colander, and dish. FRENCH ToAsT.—Beat your eggs very light, and stir with them one pint of milk ; slice some nice white bread, dip pieces into the eggs and milk, then lay them into a pan of hot butter and fry brown. sprinkle a little powdered sugar and cinnamon or nutmeg on each piece, and serve hot..

Now I Lay Me Down to Seep "Now I lay we down to :le. p, I pray the Lord my soya to keep, If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.' Who are you, than or woman, for whom this prayer has not obi and sweet associa tions; who, hearing its words, hear not, too, the "memory bells" ringing up from the golden plains of your childhood, and feel not the soft gales from the morning land of poor life sweeping over your soul? You may be a man now in the pride and strength of your years; you may have carved out for yourself an honorable name and destiny in this world—rnayhap you are the owner of broad lands, and proud homes, and your heart has grown hard in its battle with the world. But stop a moment, and listen to this little verse, so simple that the merest bale who learns to lisp the words can compre hend them, and so grand in its sublime significance and faith, that the wisest shall only have learned the true lesson of life when the soul utters them as it did in its infancy. Let us see ! How many years ago was it? twenty, thirty; no matter, at the old sound of "Now I lay me," they have rolled their massive doors, and you go down through them to the old red, oue-story house, where your life first took its morn ing. You see its little winiow on its right side, close under the rafters ; ah! you 'l rpt a sounder slumber, and dreamed sweeter dreams in that old garret than you ever did in your lofty chambers; with the gilded ceilings and snowy draperies, and what matter if your bed was a straw one, and your coverlet made of red and yellow "patches" of calico, you never snuggled down so contentedly under your spring mattresses and Marseilles counterpanes. "Now I lay me ;" how softly sleep wound come and weigh down our eyelids, as you tepeated the words after her ; alt ! you can hear her very tones no.v stealing across your heart, though it is so many years since death silenced them ; you feel the soft touch of her hand on your pillow, and the tender lingering of her kiss upon your lips—you break down here, proud man as you are—the memory of your mother is more than you can bear. If she had only lived, you would not have b e en what you now are; but, thanks be to God, she left you something that can never grow old and dim, not even in the "unspeaka ble brightness," beyond the shining gates— the memory of a loving, praying, Christian mother. Reader, if tiny be that in the din and struggle of life you may bare forgotten to pray at all, and that night after night you have laid down on your pillow, never think ing of the shining ranks of angels that God's mercy stationed around, or thank rug Him for the day or the night. But come back, we beseech you, to the old prayer of your childhood. You can not have outgrown that—no matter if your hair is frosted with the snows of life's De cember, and if your years are three score and ten, kneel down by your bedside, and utter these words, see if something of the old peace and faith of your childhood does not come back to you, if something of its dew and blessing fall not upon your slum ber. And remember that sooner or later, you must "lie down and sleep," when this prayer will be all your soul can take—all that will avail of your rank, or wealth, or fame, whatsoever you most prize in this world, which is but the shadow of eternity. Ah ! we shall soon pass the "Green threshold of our common graves;" but the little prayer, the first, it may be, that we took upon our childish Tips, as we sail out under the solemn arches of the "River of Death"—follows us, a sweet, faint, tender air, from the shores, and when we shall cast anchor; "The Lard our soul shall take Advice to Consumptives. No man, however uncleanly, would drink muddy, dirty water. A party which occupies a room fur hours, breathing the same air, might be compared to a party of bathers drinking the water in which they bathe. Tile patient must keep the win dow of his bed room open. Night air is fresh air without daylight. In close, ' crowded rooms; the patient suffering from lung complaints breathes consumptively. By taking these precautions and using Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Pleasant Purgative Pellets, fully one half of the cases of lung complaints would be cured in six months. For cough and irri tation of the lungs do not always indicate the presence of consumption although it may result in that disease, and if con- sumption has already become deeply seated in tho system, this is the most efficient course of treatment that can be pursued outside of any institution that provides special facilities for the treatment of this disease. Dr. Pierce's celebrated Invalid's Hotel is such an institution. Send stamp for descriptive pamphlet containing also a complete treatise upon consumption, ex plaining its causes, nature, and the best methods of treating it, together with valu able hints coseerning diet, clothing, exer cise, etc., for consumptives. Address World's Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. V. OH ! ye whose paths are in the pleasant places ! whose faith never tried by heav en's seeming disregard of your prayers and tears ! who never knew the lack of tender home-love an 1. protection, exult in your happiness and thank Providence. But while you drink from your cup of life such honey sweet draughts, give a thought now and then to those daily pota tions savor so strongly of worm-wood, and remember that a kindly word and helping hand, which cost so little, may make light er burdens of some one now almost dis couraged. TRIALS are moral ballast that often pre vents our capsizing. When we have much to carry, heaven rarely fails to fit the back to Lhe burden ; when we have nothing to bear we can seldom bear ourselves.

Y. Are now putting on the market a Plow that is as much superior to any Plow heretofore made as the Plows of the past few years have been superior to those made half a century ago. It combines all the excellencies or any Plow In use. It obviates sill the objections made to any Other Plow. In addition it embraces several new features of the greatest value, for which we have ob tained exclusive Patents. Its Beam, Clevis, Jointer Standard and Wheel Standard will be STEEL, and its mold board will be a composition of Steel and Iron chilled under a process for which we have also obtained an exclusive Patent. It will be called CHILLED STEEL PLOW Its weight will be eighteen pounds less than our present styles. A first-class Steel Plow, made in the or dinary way, full rigged, retails for twenty-two dollars. Inferior Steel Plows retail from six teen to nineteen dollars. The price of our new Plow will be but Seventeen Dollars, and it will be the cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold. Its mold board will outwear three of the very best kinds of the ordinary steel mold boards. It will scour in sells where all steel plows and all other plows have hitherto proved a failure. With this Plow will be Introduced a corru gated PloW Point and Jointer Point, on which we have also obtained a Patent, and which is also a great improvement, both as regards strength and wear. The Jointer can be shifted so as to take more or less land, and also more or less pitch, and it can always be kept on a line with the Plow. The wheel will run under the beam or ono side of it as desired, and always kept in line. The beam is adjustable for Spring or Fall Plowing, and also for two or three horses. The handles can be adjusted to accommo date a man or boy, on the same Plow. It is a perfect Plow. Wooden beams are going out of use because they shrink, swell and warp, and never run two seasons alike. Iron beams are too heavy. Malleable beams become demoralized and bend, which is much worse than to break. A Steel beam is the necessity of the day. It is three times as strong and very much lighter than any other style. When we say a Mold board Is chilled, the farmers know it is so. We do not palm off on them a commiltion of various metals and call it chilled metaL We want agents for this new Plow in every town in this State. We can give but a very small discount to them, but we will pay the Railroad Freight. We propose to place this Plow in the hands of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture as possible. It will be the best Agricultural Implement ever sold. It shall also be the cheapest. Persons therefore who are not willing to act as agents on the principle that "a nimble six pence la better than a slow shilling," need not apply for an agency. No Plows on commission. All sales absolute. CP - This is the only Steel Chilled Plow In the World. Steel costs several times more than Iron. But this Plow, full rigged, by giving small discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars. Compare this price with that of any Iron Plow ever made. It is cheaper than any other Plow now made would be at live dollars and a half. Where there are no agents we will, on re ceipt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any Railroad station in the State and pay the freight Address, SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO. fir Syracuse, N.Y.
