Prospective Prices of Produce.
Tito farmers of the Great West have doubt
less secured the most bountiful crops of jrrain
ever grown on their prolific soil. Even sup
posing their Indian corn to be shrunk one-fourth
by excessive rain and early frost, the year's
product of food for man and beast will yet l>e
beyond example. After reserving generously
for their own wants, they will still have an im
mense surplus to sell either directly as grain,
or in the more concentrated form of beef and
pork. A ml, as yet, there is a promise of a libe
ral reward for their toil. Every one must judge
for himself as to the policy of selling this fall
or holding over. Should the great war conti
nue and extend, there is a strong probability
that the prices of next spring will be as high
us the present And with such prices there is
no reason why the great majority of farmers
should not make a profit 011 the year's opera
tions—reduce if not extinguish their debts, im
prove their lands, increase their stock of cattle
and their variety of implements, and place them
selves in position to grow a still larger crop
next vear.
Against one risk—that of selling for base
less promises—it might seem needless to proffer
caution ; vet we know that thousands, undeter
red by the sad experience of others, will sell
their grain or cattle for the uotes of specula
tors, if tlicv cau thereby secure a higher price
than would be paid in cash, lint why should
any sane man do this? Grain and meat are
cash articles ; they can be turned, by the help
of our public works, iuside of sixty days at fur
thest ; and meu who have any right to credit
can obtain money enough from good banks to
buy aud send abroad produce. No buyer who
ought t6 IK? trusted will ask a farmer for cred
it, for he perfectly understands the advantage
of buying for cash. Whoever asks a farmer to
trust him for his grain or stock until it can be
sent to market and sold, thereby confesses him
self unfit for his business, and unworthy of cred
it. There may be exceptions ; but the general
rule is clear, that whoever, in times like these,
has auv business to buy produce at all. can get
Mionev of those who make a business of lending
it to better advantage than he can buy on cred
it of those who need pay.— Ncic York Tribune.
Using Sprouted Wheat
In some parts of the country the wheat crop
was badly sprouted this season. An observing
gentleman travelling in Western New York
sets down the damage in that region at IT per
cent. In Northern Ohio the damage may van
in different localities from 2 to 10 per cent.
Iu Northern Missouri where the crop was very
heavy, the Council BluJTs Bugle, says :
'•Rain began to fall copiously about the com
mencement of harvest and continued tosnch an
extent that even the wheat in shock, became
one verdant mass of growing wheat. Over
three fourths the entire crop has been in this
wav totally destroyed, and that too, as far south
as we have heard from. This will be a heavy
calamity upon the region thus suffering as
there will not be wheat enough to supply the
country with flour."
In Michigan too we learn the wheat is bad
]y grown in many places.
Now, how is the farmer and the farmer's
wife to remedy this damage ? In the Spring
of 1536, nineteen years ago. we moved to Ohio
and pitched our tent among the Ashtabulas
(God forgive ns !) and that part of the coun
try was full of grown wheat. Our best of
wives, was a most exemplary housekeeper, and
this grown wheat was a sore experience, com
ing as we did from the orthodox rye and In
dian of Vermont. We (that is. she) tried eve
ry plan that female ingeuuity could invent, in
cluding the inventions of all the neighbors, and
after all came to the conclusion, that, like ring
bone or heaves, the thing was about impossible
to cure.
Rut it admitted of amelioration. Baking
powders were not in vogue then, probably they
will prove the best ameliorant ; we found that
quick uiadc cakes, " hurried np" with saler3tns,
were less liable to run than raised bread. But
we have constitutional objections to hot cakes,
despite their going off. aud much prefer a ripe
loaf of raised bread. Of all our experience we
had the best luck by pursuing a practice like
the following :
Take a pan of floor and place it pefore the
fire or under the stove and let it season for six
or eight hours, keeping it ht to evaporate
the moisture as much as possible. Then make
np the sponge in the usual way. It will get
lively aud begin to spread itself ; then knead
it down as hard as possible, work in all the
flour yon can, and then work in a little more.
A little skortcnipg and a little alum-water, put
In at the commencement of the kneading, will
help to hold the dough from running, when set
to bake. The loaves must stand in the oven
longer thau for good flour, or the inside will
be clammy.
For Setrl. it is confidently reported by a
reliable gentleman who has tried it, that grown
wheat will still Tegetate with scarcely any per
ceptible loss in quantity or luxuriance.
Staggers is Sheet. —Formerly I lost sheep
by this disease, until by experiment I discovered
a remedy, which has not failed me for many
years, and I thir.k it a safe as well as a sure
remedy. About twelve year* since I found
that a nice ewe of mine, which had two fine
iambs, was affected with this disease. She
was down by the fence, at the side of the pas
ture. ami wheu she endeavored to walk orrnu.
would stagger and fall, and ajtpeared to be
blind. I went to her. took my knife out. eat
off an ear close to the head, ami to my surprise
found tue blood did not start : not so much as
one drop could I obtain. Thinking ray sheep
as good as dead, i concluded to try experiment*
upon her. I returned to my dwelling, and tak
ing a bottle of spirits of turpentine iu my hand,
went again to the pasture. I had bean absent
perhaj** an hour, but the sheep had not moved
from where I left her. and there was no dis
charge of blood from tlie ear. I jn>ured per
haps twenty drops of turpentine into oue ear ;
and after waiting a few minutes. I turned her
over and poured the same quantity into the
other. She soou began to shake her head, ami
a stream of blood rau from ear anqmtated ear.
In an hoar she was appareutiy as well as ever.
Since then I have used the same remedy, with
out catting off the ear. and have never lost a
sheep by the staggers. — R* r *l .Vr Yorker

llrlmbaid's Highly Concentrated Fluid Extract Buehv,
for Disease* of the Bladder and Kidneys, Secret Diseases,
Strictures, Weaknesses, and all Diseases of the Sexual
Organ*, whether in Male or Female, from whatever cause
they may have originated, and no matter of how long
standing.
If you liave contracted the terrible disease, which when
once seated in the system, will surely go down from one
generation to another, undermining the constitution, and
sapping the very vital fluids of life, do not trust yourself
in the hand* of Quacks, who start up every day in a city
like this, and fill the papers with glaring falsehoods too
well calculated to deceive the young and those not ac
quainted with their tricks. You cannot be too careful in
Uie selection of a remedy in these cases.
The fluid extract Buchu has been pronounced by emi
nent Physicians
THE GREATEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN.
It is a medicine perfectly pleasant in it* taste, and very
innocent in it* action, and yet so thorough that it annihi
late* every particle of the rank and poisonous virus of this
disease; and, unlike other remedies, it does not dry up
the disease in the blood.
Constitutional Debility, brought on by self-abuse, a most
terrible disease, which has brought thousands of the hu
man race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant
hope* of parent*, and blighting in the bud the gloriou*
ambition of many a noble youth, can be cured by this
INFALLIBLE REMEDY.
And a* a medicine which must benefit everybody from the
simply delicate to the confined and despairing invalid, no
equal ia to be found, acting both a* a cure and preventive.
HEMBOLD'S HIGHLY CONCENTRATED
Compound Fluid Extract Sarsaparilla.
For purifying the Blood, removing all disease* arising
from excess of Mercury, exposure and imprudence in
life, chronic constitutional disease, arising from an im
pure state of the blood, and the ouly reliable and effect
ual remedy known for the cure of Scrofula. Salt Rheum.
Scald Head, Ulcerations of the Throat and Leg*. Pain*
and Swellings of the Bone*. Tetter, Pimple* on the face
and a'i Scaly Eruptions of the Skin.
This article is now prescribed by some of the most dis
tinguished Physicians in the Country, and lias proved
more efficient in practice than any preparation of Sarsa
parilla yet offered to the public. Several cases of secon
