One of the editors of the Michigan Farmer has been experimenting on corn and cob meal, as horse feed, for a couple of months,exclusively, and with the following results. After one month's feeding, febrile symptoms were occa sionally observed in one of the horses, such as short and quick breathing &c. On stating the ease to Dr. Dadd, the skill ful veterinary surgeon of Boston, it elicited tlie following valuable letter. The importance of occasional change of food which it recommends, is not sufficiently attended to by our farmers in I feeding their stock. " As regards your horse, I would (if he is ! no better) change the diet immediately. He I is probably suffering from acute, or perhaps j chronic indigestion, which is very apt to occur 1 in animals when kept too long on one kind of ' diet. No fact in dietics is better established! than that of the impossibility of long sustain-j ing health, or even life on one kind of diet.— It fails to support nutrition. (See Liebigand Carpenter.) The animals experimented upon, after a certain length of time, seemed willing to endure starvation rather than live on one kind of diet. As regards the adult horse, 1 however, lie will exist for some time on highly nutritous articles, such as oats, barley, corn meal, Ac., but they finally induce febrile diseases such as lo mi nit is (inflammation of the foot,) rheumatism, founders, &c. They do not require so much of the flesh-marking principle as the young and growing animal, which not only requires sufficient carbon in the form of food to remove the tissues, but also enough for growth and development. The adult, however, requires a greater variety of food than the latter, to support the integrity of his organization, consequently as you have fed your horse on cam and cub meal all winter, there may be a disproportion between the amount of carbon, (in the form of food,) and the oxygen respired, hence his digestion must be deranged, or carbon in the form of fat, is deposited in the various tissues. A fat horse, of course you are aware, is not the one for fast work nor fatigue, and, the emaciated excepted, is more likely to become sick, from the least exciting cause. On the other hand, an excess of carbonace ous material deranging the stomach—it hold ing sympathetic relation with the brain—is npt to terminate in staggers, Ac. It should be known to horsemen that an adult horse ought not to increase in weight from year to year ; the food may be proportioned to work, any increase of flesh, or fat, is a signal to dip a lighter hand into the meal bag ; that is, if you want to keep disease and death at bay. It pays to fatten cattle, sheep and swine, be cause the result, is dollars and cents, but yon may depend that it is losing a spec to fatten horses ; for among such I have the most practice, their disease being more difficult to control than when occurring in others, in fair working order. As regards corn and cob meal, I think it operates injuriously on a great many horses. In the first place they do not always masti-! eate it properly, it being soft and easily in salivated, they are apt to belt it, as the saying is, it then runs into fermentation, resulting in flatulent or spasmodic cholie. In order to obviate the difficulty, the meal ought to be mixed with cut hay or straw, articles that must be masticated ere swallowed. ! Should the digestive organs be deranged, meal j ferments very rapidly, inducing flatulency. I shold not object to giving a horse a feed of corn and cob meal occasionally, mixing it I with cut hay and a Little salt. Salt is a good | antiseptic—prevents fermentation—affords l>v 1 the decomposition in the stomaee muriatic acid j and soda : aids digestion and prevents the generation of worms. Acin PHOSPHATE OF LIME. — It is some years since this salt was proposed as a manure, and repeated trials since that time have fully dem onstrated its efficiency. The simplest method of preparation it is as follows : Bones are : thrown into heaps, where they soften by ferment ation. Tliev are then covered with half their weight of water in wood or stone vats, and half their weight of oil of vitriol added. The whole passes into a pasty state in the course of eight or ten days, when it is mixed with earth, charcoal, or saw-dust, to render it pulverulent. If it be required to apply the salt in a fluid state to laud, the paste is diluted with 100- 200 times its bulk of water. To DESTROY* RED ANTS. — A correspondent of the Southern Cultivator contributes the following method for destroyintcr the above named insects ;—Procure a large sponge, wash it well ; press it very dry ; by so doing it will leave the small cells open— lay it An the shelf where they are most troublesome, sprinkle some Cue white sugar out lie sponge (lightly over it ;) two or three times a day, take a bucket of hot water to where the sponge is, carefully drop the sponge in the scalding water, and you will slay them by the thousands, and soon rid the houseof these troublesome insects. When you squeeze the sponge, you will he astonished" at number which have gone in the cells." KEEP FRUIT TREES STRAIGHT. —Trees in an open exposure often acquire a leaning position from the prevailing winds. This should not be suffered beyond a certain stage of the tree.— When as large as one's wrist they should he set up erect, and, indeed, thrown into the wind at an angle of ten or fifteen degrees ; in order to bring them ultimately into a straight position. This is best done by obtaining crotched limbs from the woods, eight to twelve feet long, and placing the but end, which should be sharpened, on the ground, and the crotch and either against the trunk, immediately beneath branch ing point, or against a large outer limb, if more convenient, securing it from chafing in the crotch, by a padding of straw, or litter, and setting the tree up at once to the desired angle of elevation. Loosen, also the ground on the windward side of the root so that it will not bind, and the work is accomplished. Let this be done when the tree begins to make its summer growth, or soou after leafing out. One season, if the tree is thrifty, will be all that is required. If, however, it be obstinate repeat the trial another year. The remedy is sure. Even large trees, which haveacquircda permanent lean, may be thrown into an erect posture, by loosening the earth at the root, and occasionally cutting off an obstinate large root, without injury to its growth, and thus be made sightly. An erect tree will be longer lived and more lruitful than a leaning one, and not half so subject to casualty if i e f t to its own guidance.— Eicha ffliscellancons.

You cannot be too careful in the selection of a remedy in these eases. The fluid extract Bucnu has been pronounced by emi nent Physicians THE GREATEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN. It is a medicine perfectly pleasant in its taste, and very innocent in its action, and yet so thorough that it annihi lates every particle of the rank and poisonous virus of this disease; aud, unlike other remedies, it does uot dry up the disease in the blood. Constitutional Debility, brought on by self-abuse, a most terrilfie disease, which has brought thousands of the hu man race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant hopes of parents, and blighting in the bud the glorious ambition of innttv a noble youth, can be cured by this INFALLIBLE REMEDY.

" H U.T ,V lU'SsHi DR. 11ALSEYS' FOREST WINE.—Tlie discovery of the FOREST WINK i- the greatest bles sing of tlie age. l'ut up in Quart Bottles, a single bottle of which does more good, and goes further in the cure of Disease, than ton bottles of any Sarsaparilla in use, and warranted to cure without an unpleasant or weakening effect. The method by which all Sarssap trillas.and other simi lar medicines are prepared, is by boiling the Hoots of plants to obtain the extracts. Their mcdi inal virtues are thus principally evaporated and destroyed. It is not to be wondered at then, that 10 and even 20 Isittles of these Sarsaparillas arc sometimes taken without any perceptible lienctit. Not so with the forest Wine.— By the invention of a wonderful chemical apparatus,a per fect wine is produced without heating ; retaining, at the same time, all the primitive healing properties of the rare medicinal plants ot which it is composed, thus rendering the Forest Wine the most efficient inediciue the world ever produced, at the same time time the most agreeable. TESTIMONY. This is to certify, that I have used Dr. Halsey's Forest Wine in iny family with the most entire success." My wife was badly afflicted with Neuralgia, affections 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 knowledge of this excellent medicine, I confidently recommend it for the good of ethers who may be suffering from sinnlar complaints. It is the liest medi cine with which I am acquainted, and those who are afflic ted with the above, or any similar disease, mav safely re ly on its virtues. K. G. MUSSEY. MOID: TESTIMONY FROM COHOES. DR. G. W. IIAI.SKV—Dear Sir : My wife last autumn was reduced to a low state of Debility. My family physician advised her to take your Forest Wine. Accordingly I went to Mr. Terry's, your agent in this town, and procur ed a bottle of it, which restored her itt a very short time to perfect health. Cohoes, April 13.1850. HENRY DONALDSON. DREADFUL COFtill. DEBILITY, AND LOSS OF APPETITE. DR. HAI.SKY: Hempstead, Dee. 1.1847. A bottle of your Forest Wine and box of Pills. which I procured of .Tames Carr, (your agent for this place.) has done wonders for me. i had been in a state of decline for more than a: year, afflicted with a dreadful cough, pain in the breast, general debility, and loss of appetite. I be came almost a skeleton, and had been unable to leave my mom for more than two months; my friends tohi me I had the Consumption and despaired of my recovery. 1 could not obtain any permanent relief from any medicine I had taken, or mv pliysieian, until your Wine and l'ills were procured. The lirst dose of the Pills brought up from my stomach. much phlem and greenish matter, and my st-ools were perfectly black. I then commenced taking your Forest Wine three times a day, my appetite began to return immediately, my cough left me. and in less than two weeks I was almost well. 1 now enjoy better health than 1 ever did before, having increased twenty-five pounds in seven weeks. Your Forest Wine and Pills are higlilv valued in this vicinity, and I owe my recovery entirely to their virtues. Yours, respectfully, MARTIN CALDWELL. AFFECTIONS OF THE KIDNEYS. Mr. T. .1. Billies, a highly respectable Merchant of No. 308 Broadway, New York, cured of a severe affection of the Kidneys by the Forest Wine and Pills. Dr. G. W. HALBEY : New-York, March 12,1853. Dear Sir—ln the summer and fall of last vcar 1 had a severe complaint of the Kidneys, which rendered me finite unfit for business. I procured" your Forest Wine and Pills which cured me in a few weeks time, and I have since en joyed better health than I had for many vears previously. From their efficacy in my OAUI case, and from what I know your medicines to have done for others, 1 aiu induced to recommend them as the best medicines with which I am acquainted. Yours, respectfully, T. J GILLIES. DYSPEPSIA. There arc thonsands cured cverv year of this disease by the Forest Wine and Pills; Dyspepsia. Costiveness and Indigestion, are kindred complaints, frequently existing together, and the cure of one is generally the cure of all. The Forest Wine and Pills above all remedies are pre-emi nent in the cure of Dyspepsia. Testimony of J. N. Vermile, of New York City, dated July 9, 183'j. Dr. G. W. lIALBEY :—Dear Sir—Having been cured of Dyspepsia by the use of your Forest Wine and Pills, 1 take tiie liberty to offer you my name,'.believing many who know me may be benefited by my excellent remedies— For many years I have liccn afflictedwith this malady so bably that nearly one-third of my time has been lost from business.
