Jfunncr's Department. Look out for Mice, etc. T,a=t winter great mischief was done to fruit trees hy rui e ami moles. The snow was deep ami lasting, and millions of the vermin won d 1m ve starved were it not for trees and shrut bery which appeared above the snow. In the swamps the young bushes were girdled to an immense extent- -young maples, willows, and almost eve ry kind of young wood was balked to sustain this brood of animals through :i hard winter. For many years we have not known such ex tensive attacks on young fruit trees, and it be comes us to repeat what we have before pub lished in regard to the attacks of mice. In common winters if attention is given to bent down the first snows that tome so as to make u hard bottom around the trunks, the mice >ir< not apt to do much mischief. But in such u winter us the last they would not be driven away by such a process. They were so corner cl that they mounted upon the tops of the the snow-banks to avoid starvation, and lived upon bark of all kinds that was within their reach. In such a winter as the last it will be pru dent to look to fruit trees repeatedly and watch the vermin. Trees standing near stone walls are most exposed, and much attention must be paid to them in most cases when* mice are p r niitted to range the fields and barns without a hunter. Cats are abwit as useful on souie farms as some other sto. k. ami when a suita ble number of cats ntn kept there will be but little danger of mischief from mice. But in all cases it is prudent to rake away ail kinds of litter from the surface around lite trees, or to bury it up with loam, gravel, or other enrttily matter. We advise to throw up a little bank around each young tree —for this will not only keep the mice away but will keep the trunk steady and erect till the proper time comes to level the mound and leaves the so.l more light than if nothing had been done. The expense of throwing up a mound about twelve inches high about the trunk of each tree just before winter is very trifling. By this all the litter suitable for mice nests is buried, and the tree is better supported than it could be bv anv stake that could be set. But it is now too Lite to dig about trees, nnd the course to !>.• pursued is to watch and beat down the snotv till mid-winter,when there will be but little datnger. On oar own farm the cats will kill tnort m.ee than chickens, and we find .t profitable to keep them, lest we should lie overrun with unprofita ble stock. In our young orchard of two hun dred and thirty trees, not a piece of hark was gnawed last year, though twenty of the tres stood quite near an old stone wad. Tue orch ard was tilled and 110 litter wa> left 011 the sur face for mice to build their nests 11. We see different modes recom ml d to pro tect young tree* i.i w uter—-such as *tu ar iu the trees with washes of an off usive iiavor— or coitinsr them with tin, or birch bark. But there will be no need of such trouble or cost, for a bink of earth w.ll prove qu.te us useful as a tin or lead sheathing—m l the cost not a half a cent for a tree. PRESERVATION OF FORESTS. —Whore w]| roininj? general ions g< t their supplies of timber? How they will latuent the bleak ami naked lull-, and cry out against us for despoiling tliem of their chief beauty, and leaving behind us few or no traces of our forest scenery, except in the painted landscapes in our parlors ? If onr forests are so valuable now for timber and fuel, will they not be still more so to the next gen eration ? Then why strip them oft -o remorse lessly? Rather let thern be husbanded. Let them be thinned out, not nttuly demolish* d. A careful calculation show that sixty thousand acres of pine wood are cut every year in New York, and that at this rate, in the year 1875, these trees will have disappeared from this part of the country : it is said also, that " the produce of tilled lands carried to the title water by the Erie Canal, in one year amounted to $8,170,000 worth of property ; that of farm stock for the same year is given at $3,230,000 : that of the forest, in lumber, staves, Ac, at $4,770,000. Tims the forest yield more than the stock, and more than hall as much as the farm lands." Shall we tli. n ut terly and forever exhaust this source of com fort ami wealth ? Let as beware, lest we k.ii the goose which lays such golden eggs ? Forest trees should be preserved, also, lor their beneficial influence upon the climate. It is universally conceded that the winters of the northern states are colder than they were thir ty and forty years ago ; and that the weather generally is more windy, fluctuating and d sa greenble We have greater extremes of heat and cold, and severer droughts. Peaches once grew in abundance throughout Central New York; liow.itps almost impossible to raise then). The w eat and some are more un certain. These things are ascribablc, not -o much to any deterioration of the so I, as to tin destruction of our forests. Formerly, our farms had belts of wood land,which broke tin force of the winter and spring winds ; our hill tops were covered with battalions of tree; which defend the slopes and vales. Too snow was not blown off from the tender grain crop in w inter, nor were the fields laid bare to the blighting winds of ear.y sj rug. One of the greitist drawl a ks to farm lif. on the western prunes is the absence of forest trees. \\ ood for lumbi r and fuel is scarce,a d bouse and lands are exposed to the rake • 1 merciless winds in winter and spring Almost every m lil brings uceou it of extreme stiff-riii; at the we.-t, on the open prairies. To inak those lands a paradise for the fanner, tne\ need uotli ng .so m .c.i as th > kindly shelter <> wood lands. lii conclusion, we earn stly plead with tin farmer for n more considerate use of his wood. Remove old trees, hut touch the young with i sparing liund. Cieur up your valleys hut do not strip hire the hill tops. L ave giuiij s and single trees here and there in your pas tures, lioth for the comfort of your flocks and lords, and for the beauty of the landscape. Plant lielts along th n north and west lines of your grainfi. Ids and shelti r your houses. For t!ie purposes of shelter evergreens are best ; but mingle with these such rapid-crowing trees as the larch, scarlet flowered maple, Dutch elm. basswood and yellow locust. Th- time is coin ing when they who exert themselves to save the emnant of our noble wood-lends, and who plant trees for the benefit of posterity, will be co isider. d wise men and public benefactors. — American Agriculturist.

THE ELECTRO CHEMICAL BATH, AND D!R C CT &. TO-&. FRO ELECTRO MAGNETIC MACHINE. TAMES HARRIS. Elkcttiician, of Towanda. respect fully inform* flic public that he ha* lately procured from New York the celebrated Electro-Chemical Bath, which his proven to he one of the most'important and wonderful discoveries of the age. from its ability to extract mineral* from the human sy-tcm. Sonic eight year* ago. a physician of Cincinnati disco vered the process of extracting mineral* from the body, by galvanism : more recently, M. Verges, of N'ew York, aii electro-gilder, having suffered from the introduction of poisonous mineral* into his *y*tem in the prosecution of hi* art. conceived the idea of removing them hy the *nme processes, he succeeded in doing so, anil quickly' recovered. He then applied the same means to others similarly af fected. with like result*. His success exceeded hi* most sanguine expectations, for not only did these Baths remove mineral poison*, but cured many diseases, some of which were the result of mineral*, and some were not. More recent experiment* have fully confirmed the sin gular power of this Bath to draw from the system all mi nerals that may be Edged therein, to the great detriment of health. Very often persons are afflicted hy disease* which are iieymd the comprehension of the most skilful physicians, and which are the effect of poisonous mine ral's accumulating in the system for years, taken in the shape of ral unci, lead. Ac. Ac. The following are some of the diseases cured hy there baths: Rheumatism. Paralysis. P.iNy, Painter's C'bolic, Chronic Ulcer-. Clmdular Swellings, Scrofula, Cancer, Ncuralia in all it* forms. Salt Rheum and Humors of all kind*. He ha* also s B Smith'* newlv invented DIRECT AN'l) TO- AXI) FRO KLE< TRO M AGXETIi ' M AC HIX E. which i* a great improvement on the Magnetic machine* hereto fore in use. With the aid of tlie Bath and Machine, we have at command all the available medical efficiency of Electricity. The medical power of the Machine is verv great, i i "introducing medicines into the system through the pore of the skin—applying it directly to the parts af fected, which give* an increase of medicinal power over that of taking it info the stomach, rendering it particular ly efficacious in all local diseases. I am now prepared to apply these Baths, and also the Machines, at mv house in tin-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. 1 am also sole agent for Bradford county, for the above Machine*.
