SALT TO DESTROY WORMS, &C. — In (hat cx
ccllfiit paper, the Ucnnantowu Ttlrgrnyh, we
iiml some remarks on the value of salt to de
stroy worms on vegetables. We copy what
follows: A weak brine, not exceedimr the
strength of sea water, proves a remedy for the
" squash destroyer," one of the insidnous and
persevering, as well as voraciously destructive
enemies with which the gardener and fruit
grower is called to contend. It is also a tno>t
effectual preventive of njJivlcs, or plant lice,
vermin which prey upon the cabbage and tur
nip tribes. In every instance of the applica
tion of brine to those vegetables that has fal
len under our observation, its success has been
complete. No injury need be apprehended
from :i very liberal application, say one quart
to a plant, if the solution be of the strength
indicated.
AH the cabbage tril>c are liable to be at
tacked ami fatally injured by minute maggots,
resembling, very nearly, the maggots in cheese,
and which are doubtless the hrca of some fly.
There is another enemy, also, by which they
arc frequently infested—a small grub, similar,
in many respects, to those fotlnd in corn and
potato hills, and which not nufrequcntly prove
very destructive. Salt water applied to the
hills will have a tendency to arrest their dep
redations, and if the application lie repeated
frequently, say once in two or three days, it
will effectually destroy or drive them off.
The water, however, should not be allowed
to come in contact with the foliage, in this in
stance, but should lie applied to the soil imme
diately around the stalks, hut without coming
in actual contact with them. To destroy the
lirst named insects, it may lie applied in a state
sufficiently dilute to admit of a perfect ablution
of every part of the foliage ; hut as we said
before, care must, be taken not to make it too
strong, or will destroy the plant. Every cook
knows, or ought to know, that the washing of
cabbage, lettuce, spinach, Ac., in salt water be
fore cooking or preparing for the tabic, is sure
to expel every species of insect which so fre
quently seeks a habitation or a shelter in these
vegetables.— II r cstcni Agriculturist, June.
Tr.RF. VALVE OK A FARM. —There is some
thing in the owning a piet e of ground which
effects me as do the old ruins of England. 1
am free to confess that the value of a farm is
not chiefly in its crmis of cereal grain, its or
chards of fruit, and its herds, but in those lar
ger and more easily reaped harvest of associa
tions, fancies, and dreamy hroodings which it
begets. From boyhood 1 have associated clas
sical civic virtues and old heroic integrity with
the soil. No one who has peopled his voung
brain with the fancies of Grecian mythology
but comes to feel a certain magical fancy for
the earth. The very smell of fresh turned
earth brings upas many dreams and visions of
the country as sandal wood does of oriental
senses. At any rate, I feel in walking under
these trees and about their slopes, something
of that enchantment of vague and mysterious
glimpse of the past which I one felt about the
ruins of Kcnilworth Castle. For thousands of
years this piece of ground had wrought its
tasks. Old slumberous forests used to darken
it; innumerable deer have tramped across it ;
foxes have blinked through its bushes, and
wolves howled and growled as they battered
along its rustling leaves to empty with maws.
How many birds ; how many flocks of pigeons,
thousands of years ago ; how many hawks
dashed wildly among tlieni : how many insects,
nocturnal and diurnal ; how many mailed bugs
and limber serpents, gliding among mossy
stones have had possession here before my dav !
It will not be long before 1, too shall be wast
ed and recordless.— Henry Ward licechcr.
KHAHI N*R. CAIUSAOES. — I have been troubled
much at times with the untowardness on the
part of my cabbages, and cauliflowers as well
as brocoli, to form their appropriate heads.—
Conversing on the subject some two or three
years ago with a friend fond of Horticulture,
lie informed me that some one of much practi
cal experience in the raising of such vegeta
bles, told him, that tiic way to insure their
heading was to transplant them twice, the sec
ond transplanting to take place at a moderate
interval after the first. The very next year
another friend, who had been bringing for
ward many ordinary garden vegetables in a
hot lied, sent me a number of well-grown plants
both of cauliflowers and cabbages when those
1 had planted were scarcely above ground.—
At the time I received them, I had not pre
pared the ground destined for the reception
of such vegetables, and was too busy with oth
er things to do so forthwith. I accordinglv
struck the end of a hoc-blade into a soft weil
prepared border, and turning the handle down
so as to leave a sufficient cavity to set out the
plants.
A friend in town has tried the plan above
recommended, of twice planting the same plants
with unvaried success.— Ed.
TTT.YTS ox Pitrxtvo FOR THE SEASON*. —We
have often given our ideas of pruning, and
cannot do more than to give merely an outline
now. Never eat a li:Ii of more than half an
inch in diameter in the months of March, April
or May ; but. cut in June, October or Novem
ber, anil always cover the wound, even of
small limbs, with gnm shellac dissolved in al
cohol. Out out where limbs cross, or where
they incline too many of them to the inside of
tlie tree. Ho not cut off the young side shoots
and leaves in the growing season, us they are
placed there to elaborate sap, ami will increase
the growth of the tree.
As a general thing, ton much pruning is done
to young trees. If started judh iously, they
need but little, very little trimming, annually,
so that if the owner of a young orchard has
an uncontrollable desire to use his knife, he
had better supply his pockets with several pie
ces of soft pine wood, before lie takes a stroll
through his orchard. Prevention is better
than cure.— \cir Englniul Farmer.
TSI.EE GRASS AND WOODLAND PASTURES.—
Cassias M. Clav gives some valuable direc
tions in the Ohio Farmer, respecting blue grass
pastures. He says the older the sward is the
better. He has a pasture which has not been
broken for more than sixty years, and it is the
on the farm. As to woodland pastures,
lie says they will keep young stock growing,
or old stock, "on foot," but will not fatten
them. "Just as far as there is shade, the
grass is deficient in nutritious qualities —that
grass which is most exposed to the sun being
best."
Flour is very caree at Vera Cruz.—
\ largo importation is talked of, as the noeos
.tics ..f the po,>p|<- require it

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH,
AND
DIRECT k TO-&-FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE.
TAMES HARRIS. EI.4X-TKICI.IN, of Towanda, re-peet
fully informs the public that he has lately procured
from New York the rclebnitcd Electro-Chemical Rath,
which has proven to he one of the most 'important and
wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ability to extract
minerals from the human sy-ti m.
Some eight years ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco
vered the process of extracting minerals from the body,
hy galvani-io ; more recently. M. Verges, of New York,
an electro-gilder, having -uili red from the introduction of
poisonous minerals into hi- system in the prosecution of
liis art, conceived the idea of removing the m hy the same
processes, lie succeeded in doing so, and quickly recovered.
He then applied the same means to oilier- similarly af
fected, with like results. His success exact ileal his most
sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove
mineral poisons, hut 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 .-y-tem all mi
nerals that may be lodged therein, to the gn at detriment
of health. Very often persons are atllietcd hy di.-ea-es
which are beyond the comprehension of the most .skilful
physicians, and which arc the effect of poisonous mine
rals accumulating ill the system for years, taken iu the
shape of calomel, lead, Ac. Ac.
The following are some of the diseases cured hy these
baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, painter's t'holie,
Chronic I'leers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer.
Xeuiv.lia in ail its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all
kinds.
Me has also S.R.Smith'snowlvinvented DIRECT AND
T<l-AND FRO ELE< TRO M AGNKTK' M ACHINE. which
is a groat improvement on the Magnetic machines hereto
fore in use. With the aid of the Rath and Mac bine, we
have at command all the available medical efficiency of
Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is very
great, in introducing medicines into the system through
the pores of the skill—applying 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 ill all local diseases.
1 am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the
Machines, at my house ill the south part of the borough
of Towani'u. or 1 will visit patients at a distance, who are
unable by reason of disease to come to thi- place, at mo
derate prices.
I am also sole agent for Bradford cmtutr. for the above
