FROST AS A MANURE.
We know of no treatment so directly ,
beneficial for almost every class of soils as
that of throwing up land in narrow ridges,
in the fall or early winter. There are few
soils worth cultivating at all, that do not
contain more or materials which can
be made available !< plants by the combin
ed action < f air and frost. v
Take two plots of heavy soil side by side,
and let one lie unmoved till spring, while
the o-her is deeply ploughed in autumn,
and 'he result will be very visible in the
spring crop. But the manner of plowing
is important. To secure the greatest pos
sible advantage, a single furrow should be
thrown up, and another back furrow direct
ly upon it , so as to produce a high ridge,
and another ridge is to be made ju tne
same manner with a deep dead-furrow be
tween the two. The process is to be con
tinued thus through the field, so that when
finished, it will present a surface <>f high
ridges and deep dead furrows, succeeding
each other, about onee # in two or two and
a half feet. If prepared in this way, the
frost will penetrate lar downward, loosen
ing and disintegrating the soil below the
furrows, while the ridges will crumble
down, as they will not hold water, the air
will circulate freely through them, decom
posing the mineral portions, and convey
ing in the ammonia and other gasses This
operation will be equM to ten ov in re loads
of good manure, upon clay or compact soils.
In the spring it will only be necessary
to run a plough once or twice through the
centre of each ridge, and then level the
whole down with a heavy harrow.
Another advantage in this process, is
that when land is thus prepared, it dries
ont and warms several days earlier in the
Spring. Again, there are some soils that
are exhausted upon the surface, hat which
contain poisonous substances in the sub-soil.
If this sub-soil is thrown up in contact
with air and frost during winter these poi
sonous compounds (usually proto-sulphate
of iron or mangnese) will be destroyed, or
changed to a harmless form, during the
winter.
The above practice is especially to be
recommended in the garden. < >ne of the
most successful cultivators of an acre of
ground in our acquaintance, digs it up in
the foil to the depth of three or four feet,
making deep trenches and high ridges, so
that the whole acre appears to be covered
with high winrow< of hay placed closely
together.
We strongly urge every farmer who has
not tried this method, to lay out their plans
now for the experiment in this wav, on a
larger or smaller scale, during the present
season. — Agriculturist.
HOW TO MAKE A SOI ND >ll IN
GLE ROOF.
A? I have something to do with the car
penter trade, I thought that I would give
some of my ideas about that kind of work.
I have often noticed the roofs of buildings
that had some holes through them. The
question occurred to me to 2nd out what j
the reason was that u hole should come in j
one place and not in another, and on exam- \
ination I found the fault to be in the laying '
of the shingles, and that nine-tenths of the j
mechanics make the same mistake in laving i
shingles. I presume t hat some of rnv old j
friends will think that 1 am a little green
to think of teaching them how to do as
simple a piece of work as to lay a shingle,
but perhaps I sliail give them a new idea.
I now ask any of them to examine their
roofs, and see if they cannot titul son;.; of
the very places that I shall describe. I
shall commence to describe the bad places
by taking four courses and numbering
them. No. 1 is five shingles long. The
first and last shingle of the course are four
inches wide; the three middle shingles are i
eight inches wide. This will form the first
course. Ihe next course is four shingles
eight inches wide. These cover the same
length and make No. 2. No. Hist he same
as No. 1, and No. 4as No. 2. Now, many
at the first sight will say we have a good
roof and the joints well broke. But let
us examine a little and see. The second
course in the Joint of the third course is
but one thickness of shingle through to
the roof-board, ( and that, too, at the second
space of the shingle, as a shingle is usually
divided into three spaces,) and in process
of time the shingle will wear through and
leave a hole through the roof, while the
rest of the roof is good.
I am aware that shingles are of various
widths, and do not come all in the form
that I have shown; but 1 take this way to
show how to find the bad places. I shall
now give my rule for laying shingles, and
Low to avoid such bad places in a roof, for
they occur in most of roofs if the workmen
do not know Tiow to avoid them. You
most be careful not to make a joint direct
ly over the joint of the second course be
low the one you are laying; or, in other
words to break joints with the two last
courses that you have lain.—Michigan

bicaking, fur if there is uu article that will neither break,
rot, or wear out, the Gum spring is that article, and I
hazard nothing In siying that my Grain Drill is the sim
plest in construction, most economical in performance,
and therefore the most durable ever offered to the agri

FULL QUART IIOTTLRS,
And containing U.c strength of six limes as
much pure Honduras Sarsaparilla as any
other similar preparation in America.
A FEW bottles of this Sarsaparilla. put up
j\ several years ago, rendering it the more
valuable, (as all well-informed druggists know
that age improves it.) have been deposited at
the drug store of CHARI.ES Rn 7. iu Lew istown,
where they are offered for sale a* three-fourths
the regular price, namely 75 cents j er bottle.
!t has been a well establi-hcd fact for years
past that Sarsaparilla, when fire and proper!*
prepared, was the only true panacea for aii di
seases originating from an impure state of the
blood, the use of mercury, intoxicating drink*,
evil habits in youth, barrenness,&<s We bold
ly assert that JOH.Y BULL'S FLUID EX
TRACT OF SARSAPARILLA is the only pre
paration before the public that is prepared on
strictly scientific principles and of uniform
strength. The sarsaparilla is purchased with
out regard to price, and every pound, before
being used, is subject to the strictest chemical
tests, and its genuineness ascertained before
beinr used. BulPs Sarsaparilla also contains
the virtues of several other valuable medical
roots, together forming the best compound, and
producing the greatest curative agent in the
known world! This medicine, when used ac -
cording to directions, has cured
Scrofuia or King's Evil, Cancers, Ttunors, Erup
tions of Die Skin, Erysq>elas, Chronic Sort
Eyes, Ringworm or Tetters, Scald Head,
Rheumatism, Old Sores and Ulcers,
Pains in the bones or Joints, Swelling of the
Glands, Syphilis, Dyspepsia, Salt Rheum, Di
seases of the Kidneys, Loss of Appetite, Pain
in the Side and Shoulders, General Debility,
Dropsy, Lumbago, Jaundice, Costireness. Sore
Throat, Bronchitis, Coughs, Colds, Weakness
of the Chest, Pulmonary Affections, and all
other diseases tending to produce
CONSUMPTION,
Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities and
Complaints, Sick and Nervous Headache, Low
Spirits, Night Sweats, Exposure or Imprudence
in Life, Chronic Constitutional Diseases, and is
a spring and summer drink and general tonic
for the system, and a gentle and pleasant pur
gative, far superior to Blue Lick or Congress
