FKOST AS A MANURE. —We know of notrcut ment so directly beneficial for almost every class of soils as that of throwing up lan 1 in narrow ridges, in the fall or early winter.— There are few soils worth cultivating at all, that do not contain more or less material.- which can le made available to plants by the combined action of a"r and frost. Take two plots of heavy so 1 side by side, and let one lie unmoved till spring, while the other is drcph/ plowed in autumn, and the re sult will be very visible in the spring crop But the manner of plowing is important 1" secure the greatest |>ossible advantage, a single furrow should be thrown up, and another back furrow directly upon it, so as to produce a high ridge, and another ridge is to be made in the same manner with a deep dead-furrow l>e twecn the two. The process is to be continu ed thus through the field, so that when finish ed, it will present a surface of high ridges and deep dead furrows, succeeding each ot her, about once in two or two and a half feet. If prepar ed in this way, the frost will penetrate far downward, loosening and disintegrating the soil below the furrows, while the ridges will crumble down, as they will not hold water, the air will circulate freely through them, decom posing the mineral portions, and conveying in the aininouiu and other gases. This operation w ill be equal to ten or more loads of good ma nure, u|>on clav or compact soils. In the Spring it will only be necessary to run a plow "once or twice through the center of each ridge, and then level the whole down with a heavy harrow. Another advantage in this process, is that when land is thus prepared, it dries out and warms several days earlier in the Spring. — Again, there are some soils that arc exhausted upon the winter, these poisonous compound (usually proto-sulphate of iron or maiignese i will le destroyed, or changed to a harmless form, during the winter. The above practice is especially to be re commended in the garden. One of the most successful cultivators of an acre of ground in our acquaintance, digs it up in the full to the depth of three or four feet, making deep trench es and high ridge- 1 , so that the whole acre ;i}- pears to be covered with high winrows of hay placed closely together. We strongly urge every fainter who has not tried this method, to lay out their plans now for experiment in tlih way, on a larger or smal ler scale, during the present season.—Agricul turalist. many horses, valua ble horses in many respects, are spoiled by hav ing defective fore feet. The general defect in the fore feet is called " pinched " or contracted feet. This makes the animal tender forward, liable to fall when going down hill, and conse quently unsafe. When the forward feet of the horse are defective, his usefulness on the road is much impaired ; and, in fact, there is uo com fort or safety in tiding such a horse. What causes tender feet ? The most com mon cause is bad shoeing, with improper care of the animal. There are few good liorse shoers. Not one blacksmith in fifty knows how to shoe a horse properly. How frequent ly do boys and apprentices, as soon as they can drive a nail, undertake to set shoes with ont any knowledge of the anatomy of the horse's feet, or any of that inborn philosophy which teaches a man to look at the reason of the thing. It is a shame and an outrage upon the rights of horses to have such a state of things. It is also a lamentable fact, that not one man in a hundred knows when his horse is well shod. Commonly, a mau leads his horse to the blacksmith-shop, lets the work be done, and then goes off with his horse, satisfied, be cause lie has shoes on his feet. There are two very common faults in shoe ing horses. One is, ike shoes are too short.— How can a horse travel with ease, unless his shoes are long enough for him to set his whole feet down ou the shoes ? A horse suffers as much with short shoes, as a man does with boots of any insufficient length. How can a horse travel easily all day over our rough roads, with shoes half an inch too short ? 1 do not know how many times 1 have been pained at seeing horses with short shoes on. Have the shoe as long us the foot. The longer it is, rea sonably, the better support it will give. The second fault is, shoes arc made conr/ive instead of convex. When a horse sets down his foot, if it can, it will spread a little. This arrangement was made to save the animal from jioiiiiding a solid foot oil the ground. The foot of a horse has layers or springs, ns it were, in it ; and the shoe should be made accordingly. If the heel of the shoe dishes in, how can the horse's heel spread when he puts his foot down? It can not ; but it is bound tighter, so that it cramps the foot aud after a while it results in pinched feet. A forward foot shoe should be made with the heel of it slightly convex, to let the heel spread naturally when the horse puts his foot down.-— Maine Partner. EGYPTIAN WHEAT. —A. Fahncstoek writes from Toledo to the Ohio Parmer, that some person in the State of New York procured ami sowed, last year, thirty-five pounds of this wheat, and the produce was thirty bushels— nearly a bushel to a pound of seed sown. It is an early white wheat, and stools wheat.— The straw is strong—is solid in the upper por tion, but in the lower has a pith like the elder. The heads are branched, having one main head, and from it. shoots out from three and four to eight and ten heads. One stalk on a shoot, exhibited at the Ohio State Fair, had on it eight, and another ten heads, besides the main head. It is not likely to lodge, und the whole patch raised last year averaged near six feet high. Its origin is said to be unknown. ARTIFICIAL FlSH. —There was a new feature at the Agricultural Fair, at Cleveland, Ohio— n show of fish raised artificially. They are chiefly spotted brook trout, from six months to two years old, and were in a large tank with glass sides, supplied with a minting stream of ice water. Doctors Garlieh and Arckley, who furnish the exhibition, have quite a " fish rais ing " about two miles from Cleveland. In the jHind are thou-ands of fish, principally trout, all ruised by artificial means. W&f* Condensed Eggs, like solidified milk, are among the novelties of recent device. The yolk and white are subjected to evajioration. When thoroughly dried, the mass is reduced to powder, packed in tins, and kept for any length of time.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH, DIRECT &TO-&-FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE. JAMES HARRIS. ELECTRICIAN, of Towanda, respect fully informs the public that he has lately procured from New Y'ork 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 body, by galvanism ; more recently, M. Verges, of New York, aii electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of poisonous minerals into his system in the prosecution of iris art, conceived the idea of removing them by the same processes, 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 most sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove mineral poisons, hot cured many discuses, 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 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 rals accumulating in the system for years, tukcu in the shape of calomel, lead, Ac. Ac. The following are some of the diseases cured by these baths: Rheumatism, Paralysis, Palsy, Painter's Cholic, Chronic Ulcers, Glandular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer, Xeuraiia in all its forms, Salt Rheum and Humors of all kinds. He has also S. B. Smith's newly invented DIRECT A XD TO-AXD FRO ELECTRO M AGXKTIC M ACIIIXE. 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 (wires of the skin—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 in all local diseases. I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the Machines, at inv house in the south part of the iwirough of Towanda, or 1 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 above Machines. JAMES HARRIS. To wanda. December 22,18. L I QUOR STORE.
