FARMER'S §RPARTMCUT. Wliy Dees not Fanning ray ? Tt is a common remark that " farming does not pay,'' that " r.o money is made by farming," and some say that all a farmer con do is to live ; i. e., " by hard work and rigid economy, lie can manage io stay." Now it dees appear strange that a b'l.-incrs so extensively practis ed as fanning—so essential to human progress and improvement —a business that employs nearly seven-eighths of all the capital invested in stocks, should not pay. It is evident to every reflecting ihlnd that if farming does not pay it is because those engaged in it are not as well educated and fitted lor their vocation as arc mechanics, artisan? and commercial men. One prominent reason why farming does not pay is that many of those who engage in it have no special preparation for it. In all other vocations, whether mechanical, commer rial, educational, railroading, keeping books, or whatever el?'* it may be. a special prepara tion is considered not only as heing necessary, but indispensable. Yet any one who is unfit for anything else, aye, and everything else, will do for a farmer. Here is one cause why farm ing does not pay. Another is found in tradi tional farming. Too many farmers do as their predecessors did, without duly considering whether there be a better way. Such do not know the advantages of the rotation of crops Another reason why farming does not pay is that those who engage in it seem to think that *25 bushels of corn, 10 bushels of rye, *2O bushels of oats, 150 bushels of potatoes, one ton of hay, <tc., per acre, is a fair yield. It is readily granted that such farming will not pay so long as a skillful fatoning will produce 100 bushels of corn, 30 bushels of rye, 80 bushels of oats, 500 bushels potatoes, 3 tons of hay, Ac., per acre. These latter are no fanciful estimates, for more has actually been produc ed per acre by fanners in the Eastern States, even of each of these several products. These facts show the importance of good tillage, and who does not know that such will pay ? If any doubt, let them try it before they query whether farming will pay, and af ter trying it they will no longer heard saying that they can only "manage to stay" on the " old Homestead." Good, skillful, economi cal farming will pay ; it. has. always paid ; and there is no doubt that it always will pay.— Ktingims?, however, is not economy as toe ma ny seem to believe. Many farmers pride themselves on getting along with very little help, with the purchas ing of little or no manure, aivd call this good management,—mismanagement it should be called—whereas it should be the purpose of every farmer to see how ranch labor can be profitably employed, what amount of special fertilizers can be so used as to return a divi- dend on the money thus invested. Farming when thus conducted does pay, and will al ways pay. In order to make fanning 1 profitable, a spe cial education is as necessary as for any other business. Xot that every farmer should be a good chemist, or skilled in any or all of the sciences. This is as iinpossbilo as it should be deemed impracticable and unnecess iry. K now ledgc ami skill in husbandry are best acquired on the farm, as developed by experience, by the experience of our best fanners. Much may also be acquired by careful observation and conversation with such as arc engaged in making successful experiments, such as are ad vancing the art of productive tillage. When you hear a husbandman saying that " farming docs nat pay," you should general ly regard it as being equivalent to a confes sion of the want of skill or of industry in his chosen avocation. Labor and capital, when rightly used, will pay in agriculture as in the oilier industrial arts. Forget not that special preparation and skill are as essential in this as in every other business. Away with the absurd notion that a man that is good for noth ing else will do for a farmer Then shall wo have more successful farmers and hear less about unprofitable farming.— Cor. Mass, rioumzn. SALERATCS. —One LADY fends you a roeeipt for corn cakes, where a table-spoonful of sale ratus is used—another tries it and pronounces it Now if this is the experience of your contributors and readers, I fear they are un- consciously doing an injury to their families. When it is used in very small quantities to neutralize an acid, a little may not be injur ious, but housekeepers often use it injudicious ly, without understanding the amount neces sary to produce that effect, and the result is not only unpalatable food, but a substance is formed which is injurious to health. Physi cians in New Brunswick say that mothers kill half their children by using it so liberally in bread and cake. When a merchant there sells a barrel of flour, lie always sells a bucket of saleratus, and a family of five or six persons will use from ten to twenty pounds a year.— Corn cake, biscuit, and sweet cake saturated with it ought to be banished from our tables, and good bread, light biscuit and simple fruit substituted. The effect of a reform here would be to lessen labor ia preparing meals, while it would expel a slow poison. Will not house keepers think of this .' " A word to the wise is sufficient.'' FROZEN* POTATOES. —An exchange says : We arc assured by one who has tried the ex periment, that potatoes, though frozen ever so hard, if put into boiling hot water, without previous washing iacold, arc as sweet and pala table as though the frost had not touched them. Inasmuch as frozen potatoes are over-plenty just now, many people will have an opportu nity of trying the experiment. To TAKE FROST OUT n? FRUIT. —Put your cans iu a tub, and pour water from a well, spring or cistern over them until covered.— Let them remain in the water say tenor twelve hours when all the frost will lie removed.— Frost may be extracted from apples and po tatoes by submitting them to the same process. CHATTED HANTS.—A salve made of bees wax and sweet oil v is as good as anything ; a piece of wax of the size of a hickory nut. melt with an ouuee of oil ; apply after a thorough cleansing in soap suds, just before going to beiM — FOR A CCT WITH A KNIFE. —Bind the wonnd while the blood is flowing, with brown sugar, thoroughly wet in spirits of camphor ; do not remove it till the third or fourth day. kaT* Never grow a bad variety of anything if you can help it L takes the same room auA v.Mnta tue * .me A' f eut ua aj coci ore finsuic&s GTarite. • ! rrt ~F.

Towanda, January It. THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH, DIRECT & TO-&FRQ ELECTRO' MAGNETIC MACHINE. TAMES HARRIS, ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, respect • I fully informs tiie public tii.it lie has lately procured from New Vork the cele'cated Electro-Chemical Bath, which has proven to he one of the most 'important and wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ab.iity to extract minerals from the human system. borne eight years ago, a physician of Cincinnati disco vered the process of extra ting minerals from the body, by galvanism ; more recently. M. Verges, of New York an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of noi.sonotis minerals into his system in the prosecution of nis art, conceived the i.ic.i of'removing them by the same proce--.es, he succeeded in doing so. and quickly recovered. He then applied the same means to others similarly af fected. with like results. His success exceeded his uioct sanguine expectat ions, for not only did these Baths remove mineral poisons, hut cured many diseases, some of which wore the result of minerals, and some were not. More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sir gulsr power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi nerals that may be lodged therein, to the great detriment of health. Very often persons are afflicted by diseases which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilful physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine nils accumulating in the system lor years, taken in the shape of calomel, lead. Ac. A-c. The following are some of the diseases cured by these baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis. Palsy, Painter's i'holic, f'hronic Fleers, (jlandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer, Ncuralia iu all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all kinds. He has also P. B. Smith'snrwlv invented DIRECT AND TO-AND FRO ELECTRO M AON KIT (' MACHINE, which is a great improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto fore in use. With the aid of the Bath and Machine, we have at command all the available medical efficiency of Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is verv great, in introducing medicines into the system through the pores of the skin—applying it directly to the parts Hf fectod, which gives an increase of medicinal power over that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular ly efficacious in all local diseases. 1 am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the Machines, at mv house in the south part of the borough of Towanda, or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are fa; able by reason of disease to come to this place, at nio mlerato prices.
