Whitewashing—Good Whitewash.
This is a subject upon which our fann
ers require 'line upon line and precept
upon precept.' Whitewash is one of the
most valuable articles in the world when
properly applied. It prevents not only
the decay of wood, but conduces greatly to
the healthiness ot all buildings, whether
of wood or stone. Outbuildings and fenc
es, when not painted, should be supplied
once or twice every year with a good coat
of whitewash, which should be prepared
in the following way: Take a cleau, wa
ter tight barrel or other suitable cask, and
put into it half a bushel of lime, Slack
it hy pouring water over it, boiling hot,
and in sufficient quantity to cover it five
inches deep, and stir it briskly till thor
oughly slacked. When the slacking has
been effected, dissolve it in water, and add
two pounds of sulphate of zinc, and ot
common salt. These will cause the wash
to harden, and prevent its cracking, which
gives an unseemly appearance to the work.
If desirable, a beautiful cream color may
be communicated to the above wash, by
adding three pounds of yellow ochre, or a
good pearl or lead color, by the addition of
lamp vine or ivory black. For fawn color,
add four pounds of umber—Turkish or
American—(the latter is the cheapest,) one
pound of Indian red, and one pound com
mon lampblack. For common stone color,
add four pounds of raw umber, and two
pounds lampblack.
This wash may be applied with a com
mon whitewash brush, and will be found
much superior both in appearance and du
rability to common whitewash.
From the Farmer and Oardcner.
What Kind of Root Crops Shall Far
mers Attempt to Raise ?
Much has been said to induce farmers
to raise root crops for feeding stock in win
ter, but still comparatively few roots, ex
cept turnips and rutabagas, are raised by
the farmers of Pennsylvania. The chief
reason why farmers have not attempted this
work more generally, I think, is because
they know that carrots and parsnips, the
best of roots, are very difficult to raise,
without too much labor in hand weeding to
render them profitable. Nobody, 1 pre
sume, doubts the value of carrots and pars
nips as food for stock. Horses eat carrots
in winter with great avidity, and they are
exceedingly beneficial to them. For cows,
no better roots can be raised than either
carrots or parsnips. Put farmers generally,
do not know how to cultivate them with
horse hoes, and carrot cleaners, or they have
not the proper tools, and are slow to buy
them. Now, while I advise all enterpris
ing young farmers to learn how to raise
the roots referred to, by means of horse
hoe, <kc., without hand-weeding, I have one
kind of root crop tooecouimcnd which is
very valuable, and can be so easily raised
that 1 think no farmer will neglect it.
The root I refer to is the White Sugar
But. The seed of this beet is large, and
easily sown. It germinates speedily and
surely, and grows rapidly, with a large leaf.
'he p.ant is readiiy seen as soon as it starts,
an i the rows may be kept clean with a coin
men cultivator, with great ease, and with
little or no hand-work, except thinning out.
The product per acre is very large, and the
beets are exceedingly palatable to cows,
and very beneficial, during the winter sea
son. If fed raw, they are sol't and easily
eaten. Ii steamed, or boiled, they cook
easily. 1 hey contain a large amount of
saccharine matter, as fattening food, and
hence form a good substitute for corn meal.
I know no root so easily mised, and alto
gether so valuable for the cost of produc
tion as this. I throw out this hint thus
early in the season that farmers may, if
they choose avail themselves of it this sum
mer. I have fed six hogs on Sugar Beets
duringthe past winter (steamed) with much
satisfaction. u

THIS remedy is offered as affording ft means of speedy

nately, so many predisposing causes exist. Youth and
age are alike subject to its ravages.
can name one or more of his acqnaiutances who is sub
ject to some form of lung or tiiroat complaint, which,
if not attended to in season, inevitably consigns the suf
ferer to a premature grav. To such, help is at hand if
they will but avail themselves of it. and hope.—the har
binger of brighter days.—may be awakened without fear
of chilling disappointment. L'r O. l*tiM.PS BROWN'S
ACACLVN BALSAM does just what is claimed for it. and
may be relied upon by the sick as being the most success
ful in curing lung and throat disorders, of any remedy
known at the present day. The many phases assumed
by Consumption justifies the apprehension of those who
have reason to fear its approach, either from constitu
tional or hereditary tendency.
While the discoverer of this remedy does not believe
that people should bo constantly dosing themselves with
medicines
there are many cases where disease is too long allowed
to remain unchecked in the system ; and a slight cough,
regarded at lirst a* simply an annoyance, ceases only
with the life o! the patient. An impure state of the blood,
through debilitation of the lungs, rills the system with
morbid humor*, and pulsation becomes feeble or acceler
ated to a feverish intensity—the heart, liver, and kid
neys, separately performing functions of vital necessity
to our well being, are impeded in their regular action—
the digestive organs falter in their task, and refuse to
perforin the process of separating tie nutritious elements
from food, and the whole mental being is well nigh ready
to sink under the burden of life. The patient so afflicted,
accounts his case a complication of disorders, and often
refuses to resort to medication from his thorough dis
belief in any prospect of cure. To such
of the ACACIAS- BAIAAII. a- thoroughly worthy the confi
dence of all. Every symptom of Consumption is surely
and jiermanentlv eradicated b.v its use. Its effects ai-*
none other but strengthening end renovating to the en
tire eyittem. Bronchitis, Asthma, Coughs, Colds, and
General IVhilitv. are effect 11 allv cured bv its use. Night-
Sweats. Ixtss of V'kvsh. and Wasting away of the Muscles,
Loss of Appetite Soreness <f the Throat. Cl est, and
I.ungs. Liver Complaint. Palpitation of the Heart. Diffi
culty of Breathing—all these affection* disappear in an
incredibly short time after using l'r. O. Phelps Brown s
Acacian Balsam.
It nourishes and strengthens the patient who is too
much reduced to partake of ordinary food. It heals all
internal sores, tubercles, and inflammation. It strength
ens, braces, and revitalizes the brain, and is without a
rival as a tonic, supplying electricity or magnetic force
to every part of the enfeebled and prostrate body. It
needs no lengthy trial to convince any that the ACACIAN
BAI-SAM is truly the greatest remedy of the day, as its
LeneScial qualities are fully apparent in eight and forty
hnurs after trial.

A make the trial, and the result will surely be A.
T of the most gratifying character. K

A Splendid Large Extended Oven
Gas Burning Cooking Stove.
FOR COAL OR WOOD.
IT has long been a favored object with stove
dealers to construct a flat top down draft
Cooking Stove that would combine all the ad
vantages of excellent draft, large oxen and good
baking properties, with the use of a moderate
amount of fuel. These desirable qualities have
all been combined in the flat top Gas Burning
Cooking Stove, the DAYLIGHT. This beau
tiful stove, Jhe result of many years'experi
ence, and combining all the improvements of
the age, is one of the most perfect made. It
operates in the most perfect manner, and in sit
uations where other flat top stoves would fail to
operate. The Daylight, during the past year,
has given the most entire satisfaction, and is
surpassed by no stove of the same class. It is
new in design, beautiful in appearance, unsur
passed in its operations, and a great saver of
fuel. They are warranted to give entire satis
faction. Call and examine the Daylight, at the
Tin and Stove Establishment of
J. IRWIN WALLIS.
