Rolling the Ground. A correspondent writes : " On dry or wet ground tlio effuot of the roller Is found to be salutary. Plowed and prepared for sowing, dry land is much helped by the roller. The blades of grass spring up sooti er and rotnin a firmer hod lu the earth. In a season of drought, rolling has saved the crop, when without it the seed would have nover sprung from the ground. In wet and heavy ground It is believed the roller, smoothing and hardening the sur face, will leave the soil immediately be ncatu the surface in a better condition to gonerato the seed. On grass ground that has been heaved by the frost, the roller has an excellent effect in fixing the roots. Roll ing the ground is also good when the land lias been laid down unevenly the previous year. If the laud is too dry, wait till just .lifter a Boaking rain, and it will work cap itally. It is a good idea to roll plowed sowed ground before harrowing, as it proBses down the furrows that would be turned back, and makes the surface less uneven, and the harrow pulverizes it much. , We find that on an average not one farmer in four has a roller." Manuring with Brush.. Mr. Clark writing to the Gormantown Telegraph, says : My idea was that ono groat cause why we could not got as good crops from old fiolds as when they wore first cultivated, was owing in a great part to the donsity of the soil. I bad obsorved that the first eight or ten years after clear ing off the forest the land would give good crops with very little care in plowing ; the reason for this, I argued, was the docaying of innumerable rootlots of the trees cut down. In order to test this theory I cut about two tons of water-brush, hardback and other small bushes, and let them lie in a pile exposed to the weather a year and then applied barnyard manure to another half acre adjoining. The result proved the manure to be a little the best the first year for corn. Sowing grass seed the fall aftor harvesting the corn. The manured place did pretty well for about five years, the brush piece did well for about ten years, proving the theory to be correct. I used two tons of manure as a balance for the two cords of bushes ; the plowing was six or eight inches deep. 1 have repeated the experiment since, with the same result. About drafting. There are many curious facts about veg etable life. We can, for example, graft the apricot on the plum, and the peach on the apricot, and the almond on the peach, and thus we may produce a tree with plum roots and almond leaves. The wood, how ever, of the stem will consist of four dis tinct varieties, though formed from one continuous layer. Below the almond wood and bark we shall have perfect peach wood and bark, then perfect apricot wood and bark, and at the bottom perfect plum wood and bark. In this curious instance we see the intimate correspondence between tho bark and the loaf, for if we should remove the almond branches we might cause the several sorts of wood to develop buds and leafy twigs each of its own kind. Each section of the compound stem has its seat of life in the cambium layer, and the cam bium of each reproduces cells of its own species out of a common nutrient fluid. Man., riovghman. Hew to Make a Mustard Plaster. The ordinary way is to mix the mustard with water, tempering It with a little flour, but such a plaster as that makes is simply abominable. Before it has half done its work It begins to blister the patient, and leaves him finally with a' painful,"flayed spot, aftor having produced far less effect in a beneficial way than Jwas intended. Now a mustard plaster should never make a blistor at all. When yu make a mus tard plaster, then, use no waterjwhatever, but mix the mustard with the white of an egg and the result will be a plaster which will "draw" perfectly, but will not produce a blister even upon the skin of an infant, no matter how long It is allowed to roraain upon the part. VW It hot tar is applied to boot soles it makes them water-proof. Lot it l e as hot as the leather will bear it without injury, applied with a swab, and dry by the fire. The operation may be repeated two or three times during the winter, if neces sary. It Is a good plan to provide boots for winter during summer and prepare the soles by tarring as they will then become, when they are wanted to wear, almost as firm as horn, and will wear twice as long as those unprepared. Cracker Pie. Eight crackers pounded flue on whioh pour boiling water to soften ; eight table spoon fulls of vinegar, eight of sugar, on lemon J if too stiff, add water. Newport Advertisements.

The Peruvian Syrup, a Protect" ed Solution of the Protoxide of Iron, is so combined as to havo the character of an aliment, aa easily digested and assimilated with the blood as the simplest food.

The en riched and vitalized blood per meates every part of the body, repairing damages and waste, searching out morbid secre tions, and leaving nothing for disease to feed upon. This is the secret of the won derful success of this remedy in curing Dyspepsia, Liver Com plaint, Dropsy, Chronic Diar rhoca, Boils, Nervous Affections, Chills and Fevers, Htimcrs, Loss of Constitutional Vig-or, Diseases of tho Kidneys and Bladder, Female Complaints, and all diseases originating in. tf bad state of the blood, or ac companied by debility or a low state of the system, lielng frco from Alcohol, in any form, iia energizing effects are not fol lowed by corresponding reac tion, but are permanent, infu sing strength, vigor, and ncut life into all parts of the system, and building up an Iron Con stitution. Thousands have been changed by the use of this remedy, fror.i weak, sickly, suffering crea tures, to strong, healthy, and happy men and women; and invalids cannot reasonably hes itate to give it a trial.

J. Walker's California Vin egar Hitters mo a purely Vogctablo preparation, iniulo cliietly from the na tive licrba found on tlio lower ranges of tho Sien a Nevada mountains of Califor nia, tlio medicinal properties of which aro extracted therefrom without tho uso of Alcohol. Tlio question is almost daily asked. "What is tho causo of tho unpavalleled success of Vixkoar Bit TF.nsT" Our answer is, that they remove tho canso of disease, and tho patient re covers his health. They are tho Rroat blood purifier and a lilo-giving principle, a perfect Henovator anl Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of" tho world has ft medicine been comnntimicrl posse.-isinfr the remarkable qualities of Vikkoak Uirriiits in healing tho sick of every iliseaso man is beir to. They are a jrcntlo Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflummutinn of tlio Liver ami Visceral Organs in Bilious Diseases The properties of Dit. Walker's Tineoaii Uiri'KRS aro Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminutivo, Nutritions, Laxative, Diurotio, Sedative, Counter-irritant Sudorifio, Altera tive, and Anti-Iiilious. Grateful Thousands proclaim Vin egar Bitters the most wonderful In vigoraut that ever sustained the sinking system. ) No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long unwoll, provided their bones aro not de stroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. Jiilious. Remittent and Inter mittent Fevers, which are eo preva lent in tho valloys of our great rivers throughout tho United States, especially thoso of tho Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkan sas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobilo, Savannah, Ro anoko, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during tho Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during sea sons of unusual heat and dryness, aro invariably accompanied by extensive do rangements of the stomach and liver, and otbor abdominal viscera. In their treatment, a purgative, exorting a pow erful influence upon theso various or gans, is cssontially necessary. Thore is no cathartic for tho purpose equal to Dr. J. Walker's Vinegar Bitters, as they will speedily removo the dark colored viscid matter with which tho bowels are loaded, at tho same time stimulating the secretions of tho liver, and generally restoring tho healthy functions of tho digestive organs. Fortify the body against disease by purifying all its fluids with Vinegar Bitters. No epidemic can tako hold of a Bystera thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Head ache, Pain in tho Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of tho Stomach, Bad Taste in tho Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpita taticn of the Heart, Inflammation of tho . Lungs, Pain in the region of tho Kid- ncys, and a hundred other painful symp toms, aro tho offsprings of Dyspepsia. Ono bottlowill prove a better guarantee of its merits than a longtby advertise ment. Hcrofula, or King's Evil, White Swellings, Ulceru, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial AlToctiims, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc. In these, as in all other constitutional Dis eases, "Walker's Vineoar Bitters havo shown their great curutivo powers ia the most obstinate and intractable cases. For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remit tent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Wood, Liver, Kidneys and Iiladder, those Bitters have no eciuul. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated blood. Mechanical Diseases. Persons en gaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Typo-aottors, Oold-houters, and Miners, as they advance in life, aro subject to paralysis of tho Bowels. To guard against this, tako a dose of Walker's Vin kuar Bitters occasionally. For Sk in Diseases:, Eruptions, Tet ter, Sult-Khemn, Blotches, Spots, l'implos, Pustules, Boils, Carbuncles, King-worms, Scald-head, Sore Eyos, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of tho Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever name or naturo, aro literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short tiuio by tho use of theso Bittern.' ' Pin, 'Tape, and other Worms, lurking in tho system of so many thousands, are ellectuuily destroyed and removed. No Bystem of mudicino, no vermifuges, no an thelniinitics will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or eiugio, at the dawu of wo manhood, or the turn of life, theso Tonio Bitters display go docided an influence tout improvement is soon porcoptihlo. Cleanse tho Vitiated Wood when ever you find Its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores: cleanse it when you find it obstructed and sluggish in tho vuins; cleanse it whon it is foul ; your feelings will toll you when. Keep the blood pure, and tho health of the system will follow. 11. ii. McDonald & co., DhikkUU amtOn. A!., Sun Krsnuinoo, California, suil our. of Wanliiniruin ami (Jtiarlton Sui., N. Y.
