Lectures en Veterinary Science.
-Extract from a lecture delivered by the Dr. j
Padd:
After alluding to the rare, nature aiui front- j
inent of colic, the doctor stated that the bots j
originated from the larva of the gad fly, which .
being deposited on the sales and tore extremities
of the horse in the form of nits, are licked off
by the tongue of the horse, and thus pass into
the stomach, aud finally assume the form of a ;
full grown but, and that when capable of ■
exercising an independent life, they leave the ,
stomach, their natural habitation, by the
alimentary passage aud rectum, burrow into :
lhe earth and there undergo a sort of nicta- ,
morphosis, acquire wiugs, aud in their turn
deposit nits, and thus perpetuate the species. I
He proved, beyond a doubt, that they.seldom i
do auy harm, and quoted from authorities to
their general iunocuousness. That while in
the stomach they cannot produce pain as is .
generally supposed, because they are located
on the cuticuhrr division, a portion of the <
stomach as insensible as the lining of the
membrane of the fowl's gizzard, and that it
ever found to have burrowed through the walls j
of the stomach into the abdominal cavity, they (
were there from the force of circumstances, j
occurring in the death of the horse, from
peculiar causes, or from drenching the animal :
with strong medicine or poison.
If a horse happens to have a sudden attack
of colic, or liny other acute disease, and should .
turn his head towards the side expressive of
the pains and agony experienced, many people j
jump into the conclusion that the horse is
afflicted with the hots, and all the " Knoic I
Somethings " seem to favor the opinion, aud !
will scarcely believe otherwise ; but this results •
from that backward mode of reasoning, that
compels us to lock npon the error, rather than
embrace the light of Science.
The horse may be destroyed by powerful
medicines, but the hot being the monarch of
his owu domicil, the stomach, can refuse the
dose you offer him.
The best way to rid the horse of the bots,
is to turn him into a pasture in the spring, at
which time the hot conies to maturity, and
will theu vacate his stronghold.
Bots cannot be killed by poisons, for they
will live and grow fat on turpentine, and even
on some of the mineral acids, so that is folly
to attempt their expulsion.
It was proved that ali animals as well as
man, are more or less pestered with various
kinds of parasites, and they seldom do harm.
That the pig was often infested with animalculai,
so that its body was surcharged with the same,
and this gave to pork that peculiar appearance
known as measles.
The lecture was concluded with some very
interesting remarks on animal physiology.—
After which, at the request of person present,
the anatomy and physiology of the foot, and
the various methods of shoeing were discussed.

Raising Root Crops.
We hope none of our readers will let this
month pass over without putting in a plentiful
crop of roots for ucxt winter's supplies. We
believe many will be driven to it who have the
past seasou experienced the cost of making
beef and butter from pure grain, at the present
high rates, some of whom perhaps sold rather
bare early in the winter under the temptation
of high prices and now have to buy at still
higher. The prospects for the farmers were
never more flattering than now, but to avail
LLtucolf Cully uC t loiiHVipjtftjftßfltJ fl)r fillQ
to practise a little of what he has been calling
book farming, viz : raise root crops, plow deeply
pulverize thoroughly, manure heavily aud with
such kinds as are adapted for the crop he is
raising. Various experiments have proved
that at least one third and probably one half
less grain will do as much good, when fed in
conjunction with roots, Carrots, Parsnips,
Beets, Rata Bagas, Ac. When corn is worth
niuety cents, or one dollar, oats seventy ceuts,
and with a dozen or more cows or steers requir
ing feed, this saving will lie quite au important
item. An acre of land under proper culture,
will readily produce six hundred to oue-thous
and bushels of roots, and even if sold, what
crop will nett more money ? Carrots, the past
winter, and almost any winter have readily
commanded fifty cents per bushel, aud the
demand for them is rapidly increasing as food
for horses, at the livery stables. The expense
of planting continued seeding, and cultivation,
deters many from root culture. The weeds
will grow aud require attention when itcanuot
be spared, but we will now repeat what we
have before shown, how this difficulty can be
easily avoided, by destroviug the weeds before
putting in the crop. After the ground has
been well plowed which should be very early
iu the season, the harrow should be passed
over repeatedly, at least twice a week so as not
only to thoroughly break up aud pulverize all
the lumps, but also to kill seeds of weeds just
germinating l>y exposure to the action of the
hot sun. If any one will examine his fields be
fore harrowing, particularly if it has been well
manured, he will find millions of weedsall over
the surface, just sprouting and in a condition
to be destroyed, by each successive harrowing.
This will uot cost a tithe of the expense of
their destruction after the crop is planted, and
will be done more effectually.— Farm Journal.
CAPITAL IN* FARMING. —The leading error of
the youug farmers of our country is in not
" counting the cost.'' The first thing they do
is to expend not only all their capital in buying
as large a farm as possible, but most usually
they run largely into debt. Their desire for
large possessions leave them nothing to stock
aud improve the farm, and hence for many
years, while loaded with a discouraging debt,
their farms remains poorly provided with ani
mals, with good implements, and with a good
supply of manure. They are, therefore compell
ed to perform all their operations to great dis
advantage ; their small crops afford no net
profits, and they become discouraged and lose
the energy and enterprise essential to success.
These causes are the most fruitful source of
poor and sliji-shod farming in America. It is
not very difficult, in traversing the country, to
point out among the various occupants ot' the
the land from the appearance of the premises,
such as are burdened with heavy debt, from
those who have a good supply of spare capital.
—Country Gentle mm.
T IMF. OR SOWING OATS. —The sooner this crop
can be gotiu after the frost is out of the ground,
the better. It is futile to attempt to prescribe i
any particular time to sow oats ; the time must j
e determined by locality. As a general rule, 1
t may be laid down that the proper time to !
oats is -.-'in wj-'.U- -r.n boweT dot# !

AITR^PIIIS.
\Nl> CHERRY PECTORAL.—The fol
-j. 1 lowing remedies are offered to the publicaa the best,
most perfect, which medical science can afford. AVER S
CATHARTIC PILLS have been prepared with the utmost
skill which the medical profession of this age possesses,
and their effects show they have virtues which surjiass
any combination of medicines hithert < known. Other pre
parations do more or les good; but this cures such dan
gerous complaints, so quick and so surely, as to prove an
efficacy and a power to uproot disease beyond any thing
which men have known before. By removing the obstruc
tion* of the internal organs and stimulating them into
healthy action, they renovate the fountains of life and
vigor-—health courses anew through the body, and the
sick man is well again. They are adapted to disease, and
disease onlv, for when taken lev one in health they pro
duce but little effet t. This is the perfection of medicine,
it is antagonistic to disease, and no more. Tender chil
dren may take them with impunity. If they are sick they
will cure them, if they are well they will do them no
harm.
Give them to some patient who has been prostrated with
bilious complaint; sec his bent-np, tottering form straight
en with strength again ; see his long-lost appetite return ;
see his clammy features blossom into health. Give them
to some sufferer whose foul blood has burst out in scrofula
till his .-kin is covered with sores ; who stands, or sits. or
lies in anguish, lie lias been drenched inside and out w i!h
exery every potion which ingenuity could suggest. Give
him these i'ills. and mark the effect; see the scabs fall
from his body ; see the new, fair skin that has grown un
der them ; see the late leper that is clean. Give them to
him whose angry humors have planted rheumatism in his
joints and bones ; move him, and he screeches with pain :
lie too has been soaked through every muscle of his body
with liuainents and salves ; give him these Pills to purify
his blood ; they may not cure him, for olas ! there cases
which no mortal power can reach ; but mark, he walks
with crutches now. and now lie waikes alone : they have
cured liiin. Give tliern to the lean, sour, haggard dyspep
tic. whose gnawing stomach has long ago eaten every
-mile from his face and every muscle from his body. Bee
hi-■ appetite return, and with it his health ; see the new
man. See her that was radiant with health and loveliness
bin-led and too early withering away ; wantofexercise.
or mental anguish, or some lurking disease has deranged
tin- internal organs of digestion, assimilation, or secretion,
till thev do thev do their office ill. Her blood is vitiated,
her health is gone. Give her these Pills to stimulate the

Through a trial of many years and through every nation
! of civilized me, AYKK'N CIJEBKV PECTORAL has been found
to afford more relief and to cure more cases of pulmonary
' disease than any other remedy known to mankind. Cases
of apparently settled Consumption have been cured by it .
and thousands of sufferers who were deemed beyond' the
reach of human aid have been restored to their friend-and
usefulness, to sound health and the enjoyments of life. by
this all-powerful antidote to diseases of the lungs and
throat. Here a cold had settled on the lung.-. The dry,
hacking cough, the glassy eye, and the pale, thin features
of him who was lately lu-ty and strong whisper to all but
him CONSUMPTION. He tries everything but the disease
i is gnawing at his vitals, and shows it* fatal symptom-
I more and more over all his fame. He is taking the Cher
j ry Pectoral now : it has stopped his cough and inad.i his
' breathing easy : his !eep is sound at night: his appetite
i returns, and with it his strength. Tin dart which pierced
I hi* side i- broken. Scarcely any neighborhood can be
found which has not some living trophy like this to shad
ow forth the virtues which have won for the Cherry Pec
toral an imperishable renown. Influenza. Croup, Bron
chitis. Hoarseness. Pleurisy. Whooping Cough, and all ir
ritation* of the throat and lungs are easily cured bv the
Cherry Pectoral if taken in season. Every family should
have it by them, and they will find it an'idvaluahle pro
tection from tire insidious prowler which carries off the
parent sheep from many u flock, the darling lamb from
many a home.

DR. HALSEYB' FOREST WINK.—Tito
discovery of the FOREST WINE i- the grcate.-t bles
sing of the age. Put up in Vuart Bottle-. i single bottle
of which does more good, and goes further in the cure of
Disease, than ton bottles of any Sar-aparillu in use. and
warranted to cure without an unpleasant or weakening
effect.
The method by which all Sarssaparillas, and other simi
lar medicines are prepared, is by boiling the Root-of plant
to obtain the extract-. Their medicinal virtues are thus
principally evaporated and destroyed.
It is not to be wondered at then, that 10 and even 20
bottle- of these Sarsaparillas are sometimes taken w ith->ut
any perceptible benefit. Mot so with the Forest-Wine,—
By tne invention of a wonderful chemical apparatus, a per
fect ovine is produced without heating : retaining, at the
same time, all the primitive healing properties <>i the rate
medicinal plants of which it i- c-unpo-ed, thus rendering
the Forest Wine the most efficient medicine tiiew rid ever
produced, at the same time time the most agreeable.
TESTIMONY.
This is to certify, that I have used Dr. ilal-ey'- Foiest
Wine in my family with the rno-t entire success." My wife
was badly afflicted with Neuralgia, affection- of the "Spine
and Kidneys, and general Debility. She found speedy re
lief, and regained her health by the use of the Forest
Wine.
From my own knoovledge of this excellent medicine. I
confidently recommend it for the good of other- who may
be suffering from similar complaints. It i.- the best medi
cine with which I am acquainted, and those who are afflic
ted with the above, or any similar di-ea-e. may safely re
ly 011 it-virtues. E. (?. M FSSKY.
MORE TESTIMONY FROM COHOES.
Dr.. 0. W. HAI.SEY —Dear Sir: My wife last autumn wa
red need to a low state of Debility." My family phv-ieiau
advised her to take your Forest M ine. Accordingly 1
went to Mr. Terry's, your agent in tiiis town, and procur
ed a bottle of it. which restored her IU a very short time
to perfect health.

A bottle of your Forest Wine and box o Pill-. vrhi h
I procured of Jamc- Carr. (youj agent for thi jda e.) b ,
done wonders for me. 1 had been iu a state 0 decline i„
more than a year, afflicted with a dreadful cough, pain
in tbe breast, general debility, and loss of appetite. I be
came almost a skeleton, and "had been unable to leave niv
rooni for more than two months; my friends t )Id lue *1
had the Consumption and despaired"of my rceove.iv. i
could not obtain auv permanent relief from any medicine
I had taken, or niy physician, until your M ine and Pill
were procured. The first dose of the Pills brought up from
my stomach, much phlein and greenish matter, and my
stools were perfectly black. I then commenced taking
your Forest Wine three times a day. mv appetite began to
return immediately, my cough leli me. and in less than
two weeks 1 was almost well. 1 now enjoy better health
than I ever did before, having increased twenty-five pound.-
tn seven weeks. Your Forest Wine and l'ilfs are high It
valued in this vicinity, and I owe my recovery entirely to
their virtues. Yours, respectfully,

•J()S Broadway. New York, cured of a severe affection ot
the Kidneys by the Forest Wine and Pills.
Dr. G. W. HALSEY : New-York, March 12,1853.
Dear Sir—ln the summer and fall of last t ear I had a
severe complaint of the Kidneys, which rendered me quite
unlit for business. I procured vour Forest Wine and l'ills
which cured me in a lew weeks time, and 1 have since en
joyed better health than I had for many years previously.
From their efficacy in my o.wn case, and from what I know
your medicines to have doue for others, 1 am induced to
recommend ihem as the best medicines with which 1 am
acquainted. Yours, respectfully,
