Rotation in Crops.
There is living in Northamptoneouaty, Pa.,
on the bank of the river Lehigh, a very aged
man. who- > -access- in falling upon a system
of rotation by which he could obtain the
greatest possible yield of wheat in a given
term of years, has caused it to be greatly
adopted in fertile regions. It is called Siiuiui
er's system, after the discoverer, Jacob Sheim
er, whom I had the curiosity to visit at his
must substantial homestead some years ago,
and from whom I obtained the following ac
count:
When a young man, with a large family ot
children growing up around him. and depen
dent 011 liiin fur support, he plainly perceived
that und r the rude practice then existing, he
would not be able to maintain them, lie
often thought over the difficulties while fol
lowing the plough, and at length determined
upon "his plan, which followed up without
faltering, has conducted him in the decline of
life to ease and affluence. J
When 1 saw him, he had resigned the active :
duties of his farm, to as >n, who was f dlow- 1
ing in his footsteps; after having himself j
practised his system of rotation for thirty-five j
rears, with a"constant improvement in the
quality of his land, which indeed had the un
mistakable stamp of fertility upon it.
The farm contained one hundred acres,
which was divided as nearly as possible, into
eight year's rotation.
Commencing with a fallow field, he the
Ist vear, manured and limed, ploughed
three times —in May, -Tune and August: har
rowed and seeded one ' u-hel and three peck
er acre of wheat, which was ploughed under. '
2J. Clover seed sown on wheat in the !
- uring, six quarts to the acre, which was pas
tured after harvest.
31. Plastered clover in the spring, on*
bushel p r a. re: eat in June, and ploughed
under second crop, and seeded grain with
wheat.
4th. Wheat same as number 2.
oth. Pastured early in the season, ploughed
und'T second crop in August, and sowed
wheat.
oth. Wheat again, and rye sow<-d on tlif ;
tutble.
Till. Sowed td verseeu in the spring on rye.
tali. Ploughed uud-r clover soil and planted
C'-rn, and next -easr.n"reeummeiiced.
it will be observed that there were every
y ar thre fields in wheat—one with rye. two
with clover, and one with fallow. The pro
duce had one season reached as high a
-1 100 bushels of wheat, 600 do. of corn, and
-00 do. of rye.— Longstreth'n A'lclrevs.

A* a D)*|>cp*i:i C'urer,
Dr. HOUGHTON'S I* LI'S IN his produced the most
marvellous effects, in curing cases of Debility, Ema
ciation, .Ycrvous Decline, and Dyspeptic Consumption.
It is impossible to give the details of the cases in ihe
limits of this advertisement; but authenticated certifi
cates have been given of more than TWO HUNDRED
REMARKABLE CURES, in Philadelphia, New York
and Boston, alone. These were nearly all desperate
cases, and the cures were not only rapid and wonderful,
but permanent.
It is a great NERVOUS ANTIDOTE, and particularly
useful for tendency to Billious disorder, Liver Complaint,
Fever and Ague, and the evil effects of Quinine, Mercury,
and other Drugs upon Ihe Digestive Organs, after a long
sickness. Also, for excess in eating, and the too free
use of ardent spirits. It almost reconciles Health wiih
Intemperance

j There were preaer.t, during the last session, (previous
to the Sre,) more than one hundred students. Since

greatly enlarged, so as to afford private rooms to all the
students; an advantage not ordinarily found even in

ALSO,
My Vegetable Worm fowlers.
This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer \>r
known, and at the same time, so plea tan t to take, that
:l iti'.si cv. r> i hild w ill he fond of it. and many instances
have been known of children crying for mote after once
taking it.
This medicine is in ihe form of a powder, the only
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
principle entirely different from any other medicine evrr
administered by any other physician. It is the only
medicine which has no Worm-seed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, which is believed by all other physi
cians, to be the only two things which will destroy
worms, and these two things combined, together with
castor oil, are the active principles of all other worm
| medicines, which every person who has ever tasted or
smeiled, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
medicines, and on account of which, there is generally
, something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and In
order to do this, it must he something stronger than the
medicine itself, and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
some of its medicinal properties. These powders are
simple and so harmless, that a child may eat a whole boj
t at once, and it will not be hurt, w htle at the same time,
. the principle upon which it acts being different from any
thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms
B with a certainty never equaled. It will not only destroy
. the seat worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worms, or
j Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destrtic-
tion of tne Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
e brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms from one person
If your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these powders, and in nine cases out of ten, you will nev
y er use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for each dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
g commended, as many other medicines are, to eure some
e fifteen or twenty diseases, ami all of different natures,
[, but they are each to cure but one disease, and tfat they
will do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred,ami
H where they have a fair trial and fail in all cases, the
money will be returned.
