.agricultural. Draining* The frond farmer lias learned from ob t nation, if from nothing else, that wheat i. killed bv water standing lor weeks to gether on it, and hy the alternate freezing and thawing consequent upon a saturated surface. lie knows that when his fields are inundated through the winter, sobbing, soaking and souring, their productive pow ers are great I v impaired, and tliat they are mueli later arriving at a tillable condition ill the spring, lie knows that vegetation is accelerated by warmth and retarded by eold ; that a well drained field becomes w .rm enough to start vegetation eight or ten days earlier than one that has been soaking and sobbing through the winter, nil th ir wheat will ripen that inueh soon er on the former than on one ot the latter j description. This is not all that he knows: be is well assured that the grain lost in two ; crops from the want of draining, would j tliorom'hlv drain the fields which are usu- \ ally sown in it, and that money, time and I.dlor could not lie expended more profitably. His observation, if not his reason, tells him that to spreatl manure on a surface which i covered with water tor lour months in j lite _\ cur, ts but to throw it away. ' Yi hen a gooil fanner fallows his fields in the fall, he does not plough them in one j land by running round and round them, j but he ploughs them in lands or beds ot a ; unil >rm width—say w ide enough for 3 or b corn rows —leaving raised in the middle, with deep, clean dividing furrows between them. When he tints prepares his fields, he knows that if more water falls than can ( he absorbed hy them, the overplus does : not stand on the surface to sour, or stag- j mite, or drown the growing crops, but runs j into these dividing furrows, and is thus j earned oil. Thus is wheat relieved of sur- J jure water in the winter, and consequently escapes the deadly effects of that heaving process just spoken of. When his fields are so situated that they j •cannot be drained in this way, he digs , •deep ditches, with proper width and diree- j tion, blinds them, and thus effects the same object. These blind ditches waste no ; land, but when properly constructed, are ; of an advantage in many fields equal to I 100 per cent. But it niav be asked, w hen is a field thoroughly drained ? The good farmer will tell you that if you find water stand ing on any of vour fields three hours alter ir fell, they :tre not thoroughly drained— ; ;hi v ire not in as good a condition as they ! might be—thev cannot vield to the utmost ; of their powers— they are not thoroughly ; lirain I; and that time cannot he better : employ* d than in remedying that defect. Thus we see that a good farmer is one I who not only has straight, tali, close fences, j and well and convenient shaped fields, hut who also thoroughly drain them. — j Ohio Cultivator.

The ! editor says of JJr. lion/land's (Sermon Bitters: " It is seldom that we recommend what are termed Pat- ' ent Medicines to the confidence ami patronage of our readers; and, therefore, when we recommend Dr. IJoof land's German Bitters, we \t ish it to be distinctly under- : stood that we are itol speakiugofthe nostrums of the day, , that are noised about for a brief period and/hen forgotten j after it has done its guilty race of mischief,but of a med- j icine long established, universally prized,and which has inet the hearty approval of tlie faculty itself." Evidence upon evidence has been received (like the foregoing) from all sections of the Union, the last three years, and the strongest testimony in its fator, is, that there is more ot : it used m the practice of the regular Physi- j cians ot Philadelphia than all other nostrums j combined, a fact that con easily lie established, and fully prov|n* that a scientific preparation • will meet with their quiet approval when pre- , eented even in this form. That this medicine will cure Kiver Complaint | and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it as directed. It acts specifically upon tbe stom ach end liver; it is preferable to calomel in all bilious diseases —tho effect is immediate. They can be administered to kkmalkor infant With safety and reliable benefit, at any time. BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
