Volume 32. e ff a tot and Xinuothold. A kind, Word to Formers Farmers are charged with being pro -Verbial croakers. It is alleged by those who are unacquainted with the onerous duties and numerous cures attendant up on-their pet-suit, that the farmer is never satisfied with his surroundings. The tyeather is adverted to in a complaining manner. It is either too hot and dry. or too cold-and wet. The spring is so back ward ss to retard the rapid growth of vegitation, er the early warmth acceler ates the budding of fruit trees, to be in jured, perhaps, by unseasonable frost and cold. An excess of rain is a cause of dissatisfaction, because it tendi t 3 pro duce rot among the potatoes, and foss and inconvenience is complained of ow. mg to repeated rainfults during the per iod of gathering hay and harvesting crops. On the other hand, a protracted spell, of dry weather wises springs to cease their supply, and convert the ver dant pasturage into parched and arid fields.. Thus he his supposed to. be •in a state of chronic diacinifent, and to hare a perpetual grumble upon his lips. • Of all men it is generally believed that the farmer should be the most contented and uncomplaining. Do not his crops grow while he sleeps, and is nut his grain golden, figuratively speaking at least? Dues not each blade of grass glisten in the morning sun with the brilliancy of the diamond, even if its dewy Waken be the only cause of such radiance ? And. then the luxuriance of that most m.agoifi dent of all the products of the soil—ln dian corn—how glorious to look upon when tossing its broad blades in appar ent exultation, as if rejoiceing iu the ' pride of its rapid grovith! , Who that possesses the slightest degree of poetic sensibility can behold the love ly scene which the well tilled fields of the thrifty farmer presents to the view, • withoht a thrill of pleasure and feeling of admiration ? The city visitor at a euuntry home, is apt to regard the far mer as one who is surrounded with every comfort, and all the enjoyments of life.— The after dinner siesta having been in dulged in, how delightful, while , comfor tably seated upon the ample and well shaded piazza, to gaze upon the beauties of nature, and to witness the operations of-the fanner when performed in view of theiguest. who is the recipient of gener oniand painstaking hospitality. Now all this is very fine and ,affurds a fruitful theme for comment and word painting. As a friend once remarked, the operations of the busy ha -makers pre sent u pleasing picture to the eye,esienial ly when contemplated from beneath the wipe•spreading branches of an unbrag eons tree. But the toil, care and anxiety attending the farmer's effort to provide p livelihood for his family are seldom. 'con sidered by those who are inexperienced in his calling, and unacquainted with the laborious duties required in its prosecu tion. The farmer is not a croak6r, nor is the allegation correct that he refers to his pursuit in conversation to a greater ex— tent than is noticeable in those who are engaged in other vocations. Dependant largely upon atmospheric changes for his prosperity, it is perfectly natural that the state of the weather should occupy a large share of his attention, and form a subject of frequent retpark. In view of the liability of-loss and inconvenience in unpropitious skies, he naturally scans the heavens with an interest scarcely surpass ed by the mariner upon the ocean. We place, great confidence en mother earth, and believe that she will ever yield a bounteous reward to the skillfully ap -plied labor of the linsbandtnan. The purest and most-tranquil enjoyments of hie frequently attend the efforts of the judicious and enterprising farmer, to pro vide a comfortable maintenance. for his family. But it must be confessed, with all his boasted independence, he is sub jected to the caprices of the weather to a more injurious extent than those who are engaged in many other pursuits. The prolonged absence of rain is a serious disadvantage. and It is not surprising that the fact of it is frequently alluded to in conversation. Improving Worn Out Fields. At a recent meeting of the North Car olina agricultural society, held at Raleigh N. C., Mr. T. A. Granger submitted the following as his method of improving poor land • I am satisfied the farmers of this eec tion of comfit ry are doing a large.amount of unnecessary labor in improving their worn out fields. After several years of hard labor in hauling dirt and com posting my old worn out fields, I conclu• 'dal to try some other way to improve my lands beside moving it in a dump cart from one point to another, and I adopted the following plan : In October, 1871, followed my experiment plot of seven acres with a two horse plow,and .followed the sage with a sub-soil plow 14 inches deep, leaving my lends in 20 feet beds:— Then I seeded it in black oats, 2 bushels to the acre. The oats were only an aver age crop fur the land, they ripened May 15th following. On the 25th of June I reversed the beds and seeded itin cow peas at the rate of if bus.to the acre. On the following October I gathered enough peas from the land to answer for seed and followed the vines and what green peas and other vegetable matter had grown upon the land. On the 15th of October 1872,1 seeded the same land in black oats again and on the following May harvest ed a very fine crop, double as much as I did the year before. In June I reversed the beds again, and seeded the same in . cow-peas, at the rate bus. and the fol lowing October I again gathered a large crop of seed peas,abont 15 bushels • to the acre,-only taking the ripest 4)r. seed. I then followed the vines and green peas in and seeded the land in black oats and clover on the following May, 1874. I har vested a very large crop of oats, 38 bush els to the acre, and on the land now I have a fine crop of clover, and I believe when I get the next crop of clover it will pay me better than any other crop I have made on it, and with the clover fallow the second fail,wiit leave the land deli enough to produce one bale of cotton or 30 bush els, of wheat per acre. The land I made this experiment on was a.poor worn out field. 'I first in 1870 marled it, and put it in corn and peas; broadcast' peas the last plaiting, only making' about 2 bush els.of corn to the acre, fallowitig in' what peas were on the land ; the land has been cleaned 6 fty yearsUnd was' cliftitritedas long as it would. produce anything. was nriginally iu long straw pine, with red'clay sub soil inches from the' sur— fine. - * Pruning may be done during mild days, but for larger limbo it will be bet• ter to wait until towards spring.

The woman who writes tge addresses of her letters “catticornered" is the especial tormen tor of post office clerks. Somebody has advertised a preparation for keeping a lady's hand free from chaps. A. re port that she has no money would do the 191.tme thing. A Pennsylvania baby is said to have inherit ed the eyes and nose of his father, but the cheek of his uncle who is an Insurance agent. A Brooklyn girl has just rejected a suitor be cause his arm wasn't long enough to go round her. She says If she's going to have a lover at all she means to have a good tit. . A boy staggered his mother on -Sunday by asking if bats were mice angels. A Utah correspondent is authority for the statement that the women of that territory have altered the authority of their creed, They now spell it "31oremen," instead of 'Mormon. A young married woman, having heard of the invention ot a stove that consumes its own smoke, hopes that something of the same kind will be constructed to consume tobsco smoke. 'Mamma, where do the cows -get the milk ?' asked Willie, looking up from the foaming pan ot milk which tie had been Intently regard ing. Where do you get your tears?' was the answer. After a thoughtful silence, he again broke out, `Do the cows-have to be spanked ?' • . A grammarian mourns because the Roman word "commence" is taking the place of the good English word "begin.," The latter is a compound word, made up of three fifths gin and people dot 't like to put it in their 'mouths these tetnperate times. Eth lONTROSE DEEM. M. Prospectus for 1875. A NEW ERA ES THE LIFE OF THE "DESSO CRAT"—WHAT IT Pnorons FOR THE Fl!- TURE—ITS ADVERTISING ..kNI/JOBBORt FACILITILES?—WELAT THE PEOPLE 'TRES'S OF IT. The DEMOCRAT for 1875 is very much enlarged and improved, making it one of the first papers in size And appearance in this section of the State. The only Dem ocratic paper in the County. Is particu larly popular for its fearless advocacy of the rights of the masses. Pare and Old Time Democracy, its tallisman, but inde pendent of all cliques, rings, or jobs.

Increased in size but not in price.— Will be sent, postage free, to, any sub scriber in or out of the county for 82.00 per year in advance. We now have a Can vasser who will visit all parts of the Coun ty. tOVERTISING, The DEatoca,xr as an advertising medi um is indispensable to business men of whatever class, and in many sections of the County, the only medium through which they can reach a large class who need but the proper information to bestow their valuable patronage. Local Adver tisers should take into considezation that a circulation, outside of those who are in the County or the vicinity where they may expect patronage, is of no value to them, if it was, the New York Herald or some such paper would be the best me dium. The cry of "large circulation" is often used when it is of no advantage to the advertiser. We do not make the as sertion that our paper is the only medium of value, but that it is' the only one by which the advertiser eau reach a very large number of families which it is for h.s advantage to reach. This is frankly acknowledged by some of the best busi nessmen of the County, who knew from experience. We respectfulty request an examination of our rates, as they are reasonable. JOBBING DEPARTMENT The Jobbing Depitrtment of the DE3I - is a specialty. We are constantly adding New Material to or.r Jobbing De partment and intend to keep doing so.— We have power and jobbing presses of the latest and improved style. One of the best recommendations for it is the con stantly increasing patronage. Our pa trons find tbat we can compete with Binghamton, Scranton, Ithaca, and even New York city, in priaes. and also in quality of all kinds of work needed in this locality. We do not propose to work for nothing, but we have a schedule of prices which we strictly adhere to, that invites competition. Neatness, Cheapness, and Promptness is our basis. We respectful. 11 invite the attention of the public and their patronage if we deserve it. Wouns The DEMOCRAT is an ever welcome visitor, a real household necessity, always containing the local and general news.— We particularly admire it for its indepen dence in advocating the rights of the masses. It deserves the,,success it is meet ing witb.—J. B. ce A. if. McCotlunt, Atfys, Montrose, Pa. The best way to comOiment the Dar ocian ie to let the people read it for them selves.

I wok many of the advertised blood preparations, among which was any quantity of Sarsaparilla, without obtaining any benefit until I commenced taking the VECIENTINIS, and t More bad comnieted the first bottle I raw that I had got the right Medicine. Consequently.

The question is almost daily asked, " What is the cause of the unparalleled success of Vqretien Err xxas? " par answer is, that they remove the cane of &wive, and the patient recov ers his health They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system.

In their treatment. a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to Dn. - J.
