Department. Muck ks a Manure, i'ew fnrmerfi appreciate the value of swamp muck, and it has been suggested tliat the grea test reason why it is not turned to better ac count, is that it is so very abundant, cheap, and easily obtained. There are few farms in many sections of the country which have not enough and to spare, or are situated in near proximity to large dej Osits of this valuable fertilizer. In looking over the first five years of this journal, we are surprised to find so few accounts of experiments in its use from our farmer readers, though those few show, in a most favorable light, its value as an applica tion to the soil. One of these experiments reported related to its use, composted with barn-yard manure ; upon an old meadow as a top dressing. The yard manure was piled iu the field late in the spring, and covered with about one-fifth its quautity of mnck. During the summer it was turned and mixed together, and covered with fresh mnck, and so remained until snow fell, when 100 loads of the compost were spread ,upon a fire acre meadow, which yielded about six tuns of inferior hay the previous summer. The product the next season was eighteen tuns of first-rutc hay,—a very satisfactory result to the experimenter. Perhaps he can now tell us how long the effect of the application continued, and whether other trials have con firmed his opiniou of the valne of tflis material. But there is abundant testimony as to its practical value. A farmer who has used over 500 loads within four years on a farm of less than 50 acres, says : " I have used meadow muck with very satisfactory results on my dry est land, and never have applied it, (after re moving the acidity by lime or exposure to the atmosphere,) without being favorably impress ed of its utility on land of sandy loam, applied with or without other vegetable matter." He composts largely with yard and stable ma nures ; and thinks so highly of it that he pur chased an acre of swamp meadow on purpose to secure muck for fertilizing purposes. An other farmer in one of the Eastern States, renovated a barren tract of laud by its use, so that iu " fields which formerly would have pro duced not more than twenty bushels of corn to the acre, he now grows more than eighty. His mowing fields and pastures were, the past season, green and flourishing, while neighbor ing lots were parched with drought." The following additional statements are from experienced practical men, and may be relied upon. We select them from Prof. Flint's re port to the Massachusetts Board of Agricul ture. A Middlesex county farmer says :" I use swamp muck most successfully, composted with stable manure, on different varieties of soils, but think it does best ou high laud of a loamy soil." A Worcester farmer says: "I use it extensively ou my hard clay seils; it works well on dry lands to keep theni moist, and on clay soils to keep them light." An other says : " I have found it a good manure on loamy, gravelly, and sandy land, especially as top-dressing for grass, when composted with stable manure—two parts of muck to one of manure." A Norfolk county farmer values it at $3 per cord, and says it is good Ur all high lands. One farmer of much experience says that wood ashes is the best article to correct the acidity, sometimes a characteristic of new ly dug muck. A farmer from Berkshire coun ty, says: " I have used swamp muck for a number of years past with good results, by mixing it with yard and stable manure in the proportion of one third to one half muck, and consider it worth f 1 per load to use for agri cultural purposes on soils that are a mixture of loam and gravel." There eati be little doubt in the fnind of any thinking and observing farmer, of the val ue of muck for all soils deficient in vegetable matter, and those who hare tried it know and acknowledge its Worth, yet many of us who have abundant deposits of valuable muck upon our farms, make little use of it in agriculture. We are either too much driveu by work to find time, or do not properly consider the re turn so sure to be received for a well directed outlay in this direction. But we are improv ing—this and many other neglected sources of fertility are being drawn upon, and will re ceive more attention from year to year, as we awake to the true science of practical agricul ture.—Jlurol N~tw Yorker. Barns. Those who build now, are pretty generally agreed npon one point ; that it is more econo mical to build one building for the various farm purposes, rather than the great number which are seen so common about old establishments. Let us look at a few figures, which won't lie. A buildiug ten feet square contains one thousand cul>ic feet. Not to speak of the roof, the outside, presents a surface to the Weather of four hundred feet. We have, then, ten feet inside, to four feet outside. Take another example. A building twenty feet square contains eight thousand cubic feet; the outside measures one thousand six hun dred feet. Here we have five feet inside to one foot outside. We will now take a build ing forty feet square. The inside to the out side is as ten to one ! I am aware that the larger structure re quires a heavier frame, that is all. The boards and shingles are the same in either case. 1 know, too, that the wide roof is worn by rain. That objection, however, is not of great weight. I hold, Mr. Brown, that one part of a large barn accommodates another part. It is a sav ing of stops to have your horse near the vehi cle in which you wish to attach him. Why go several rods to a ten-footer, and epen another set of doors in the wind to " get Out the chaise ?" What comfort, in returning from market or town-meeting on a stormy day, and driting in to a snug floor-way, there to untackle and put away horse and wagon, with ease and expedi tion. There is no difficulty in dispensing with the carriage house ; the barn is the place for all the vehicles, the cellar takes in all the carts and coarse wagons—a room at the side of the drive-way the lighter vehicles. Then what need is there for a separate buil ding for tools ; what place 60 central as an am ple room by the side of the floorway ? You start from the barn, usually, to go to different parts of the farm, and you return thither after the work is done. I have thenght, Mr. Brown, that portable bins for corn might be put up in this large tool room. In the busy season of the year, corn-bin* are apt to get pretty low, so they would not lie in th way much when the tools were most used. I should prefer that the bins be where they could he seen to often. One might stand a better chance then of keeping the fats from d''troting the corn —W I) B , .Vif /.*n ■'/'< IN] Fa MOT Business Cards. rjl Y. MA DILL, M.

FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE. JAMES HARRIS, Electrictax, of Towanda, respect fully informs the public that he has lately procured from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath, which has proven to be one of the most important and wonderful discoveries of the age, from its ability to extract minerals from the human system. Some eight years ago, a physician of Cincinnati disco vered the process of extracting minerals from the bodv, j by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of New York, ! an electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of poisonous minerals into his system in the prosecution of his art, conceived the idea of removing them by the same processes, hesucceeded in doing so, ana quickly recovered. He then applied the same means to others similarly af fected, with like results. His success exceeded his most sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove mineral poisons, but cured many diseases, some of which were the result of minerals, and some were not. More recent experiments have fully confirmed the sin gular power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi nerals that may be lodged therein, to ttie great detriment of health. Very often persons are afflicted by diseases which are beyond the comprehension of the most skilftd physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine ral's accumulating in the system for years, taken in the shape of calomel, lead. Ac. Ac. The following are some of the diseases cured hv these baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Chnlie, Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer, Ncuralia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all kinds. He has also S. B. Smith's newly invented DIP.F/'T AND TO-AND fRO ELECTRO M AGNETIC MAt HINE, 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—appi'ring it directly to the parts af fected, which gives an increase of medicinal power over that of taking it into the stomach, rendering it particular ly efficacious in all local diseases. I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the Machines, at my house in the south part of the borough of Towanda, or I will visit patients at a distance, who are unable by reason of disease to come to this place, at mo derate prices. I am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the at>ove Machines. JAMES HAURiB. To wanda. December 22,18. DRIED APPLES—a few first rate ones, foifsale at j!l§ FOXB*. L IQUOR STORE.
