TOPPING CORN.
We find each locality adhering to the prac
tices which have prevailed in it from time
immemorial. In the eastern part of this
State, for instance, the practice of cutting the
top stalks of corn has gained so strong a
foot-hold that it may be said to bo well nigh
universal, while if we visit the western part
of the State, wo find in many localities, at
least, the practice almost equally prevalent,
of cutting op from the root and shucking
We were brought up to top the corn, and
we always supposed it to be, OD the whole,
ihe best method. But after learning the
statements of those who had always been ac
customed to a different method, and the rea
sons therefor, we were inclined to think we
were w rung, and that the practice of shock
ing had many advantages over that of top
ping. It has been tried by many farmers a*
an experiment, in this part of the Slate,bu>
either from not being accustomed to it, and
so ot making more of it than there was any
reed of, it has generally been abandoned for
the old tneihod of topping. We are still in
clined to think, however, (hat cutting uj
from the root and stooking has the greater
advantages, and thai, if our farmers win
have been accustomed to top com all theii
lives, would try it long enough to get accus
ton ed to it, they would be slow to go back
to the old method.
Allen, in his "American Farm Book" says:
44 The 6talks of cum ought never to be cu
above the ear, but always near the ground
anil for this obvious reason : the sap which
n ounshe the grain is drawn from the earth
and passing thtoogh , lle (tem entc „ t>l( '
leaf, where a change is effected anatagous to
what tnkes place in the blood, when brought
to the surface of the lungs in the animal sys
tem ; but with this peculiar dfference, how
ever, that while the blood gives out carbon
and supplies oxygen, plants, under the influ
ence of light and heat, give out oxygen and
absorb carbon. This change prepares the
sip fot condensation and conversion into the
grain. But the leaves which thus digest the
food for the grain are above it,and it is whih
j downward that the change of sap in
to gra>n principally takes place. If the stalks
be cut above the car nourishment is at an
tnd. It may then become firm and dry bu'
it will not increase in quantity, while, if cn
near the root it not only appropriates the sat
already in the plant but it also absorbs addi
tional matter frum the atmosphere, which
contributes to its weigh Card protection."
As already stated, many experiments have
been made to test the comparative advanta
ges of the two methods.but so far as we
know they all tend to the same results, that
is, a gain from five to ten bushels to the acre
gained from cutting from the root and 6tooh
ing, over topping. Mr. Clark, of Northamp
ton, in this State, who tried the thing with
great care, found that an acre of topped corn
lost from six to eight bushels of grain by the
process, while the loss of stover was also
very considerable.
The most experienced farmers are careful
to secure the whole of the stover and they
would regaid this topping process as a great
and unnecessary waste of a valuable feeding
substance, as much so as if they should at
tempt to secure their crop of timothy bay by
*• topping."
There is, perhaps, a little greater labor in
husking corn cut aod stooked in this way.—
But that is, after all, a small objection, com
pared with the advantages arising from this
method.
We think it pays to cut corn fodder with
the hay cutter before feeding out. It is more
completely eaten up, while the convenience
resulting from it in handling the manure i
very considerable. Corn fodder seasonably
harvested and properly stored is of great val
ue for feeding through the winter Mass
Ploughman.
CHICKEN SALAD.
Boil a young chicken until quite tender,
muice the white meat fine. Take two 01
three fresh lettuces and cut the leaves of al
reserving the hearts fur garnishing To maki
the dressing, boil four eggs for twelve min
utes, take them out of the shells and put
ti.eui in cold water until they become tho
roughly cold ; then rub the yolks smooth
wnh a spoon, and mix :heiu well with three
tab'espoon-ful of salad oil or melted butter,
a tiapooi:ful id salt, the same of made mus
tard, a little pepper and essence of Celery 5
wiieo thee are smoothly mixed, add very
gradually a wine glass of strong vinegar.—
Put the lettuce on a dish, lay the minced
chicken u; on it, and pour the dressing around
it ; cut the whites of the eggs in rings t<
garnish the salad, cut each lettuce heart in
four, and make a border round the dish, in
tersperscd with beet root, or hard boiled eggs
in quarters.
For every itiree hundred and fifty bushel*
of potatoes removed from our fields, the soil
sustains a loss of ninety two pounds of pot
ash. Consequently, wood ashes is one of the
most valuable of manures in the culture ol
the potato.
Twelve quarts of soot in a hogshead ol
water will make a powerful liquid manure,
which will improve the growth of tlowers,
garden vegetables, or root crops.
The hop growers in Wisconsin estimate the
yield, this year, at 800 pounds an acre, or less,
ou which it is thought the yield will not tx
ceed 00,000 or 05,000 bales.
The veterinary editor of Wilkes' Spirit ol
the Times recommends the following for
scratches in horses: Take sulphate of zinc,
one drachm ; glycerine two ounces : apply
tTery morning.

From Emery Edet, a well-known merchant of <rt.
ford, Maine.
" I have sold largo quantities of your SARSAPA
RIU.A, but never yet one bottle which tailed of t| ia
desired rifeet and rail satisfaction to those who too*
it. As fast as our people try it, they agree there has
been no medicine like it before in our community."
Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, Pustules, Ul.
cers, Sores, and all Diaeaaec of the Skin.
From Rev. Roll. Stratton, Bristol, England.
" I only do my duty to you and tbc public, when
i 1 add my testimony to that you publish of the me-
I dirmal virtues of your SARSACAKIU.A. My daugh
ter, aged teu, h MI an afflicting humor in her ears,
eyeß, and hair for years, which we were unable to
cure until we tried your SARSAPARILLA. 61K has
been well for Bomc mouths."
From Mr. Jane E. Rice, a well known and much
esteemed lady of Dennisvitle, Cape May Co., ,V. J.
"My daughter has suffered for a year past with a
scrofulous eruption, which was very troublesome.
Nothing afforded any relief until we tried yosr
SARSAPARILLA, which soon completely eursd her."
From Charles P. Gage, Esq., of the widely-known
Gage, Murray <f Co., manufacturers of enamelled
\ papers in Nashua, -V. IT.
" I had for several years a very tronblesome
humor in ray face, which grew constantly worse
Until It disfigured my features and became an Intol
erable affliction. I tried almost every thing a man
could of both advice and medicine, but without any
relief whatever, until I took your SARSAPARILLA.
It immediately made ray face worse, as you told me
it might for a time; but In a few weeks the new
skin began to form under the blotches, and con
tinued until my face is as smooth as any body's,
and 1 am without any symptoms of the disease that
1 know of. 1 enjoy perfect health, and without a
doubt owe it to your SABSAPAKILLA.."
Erysipelas —General Debility—Purify the
Blood.
From Dr. Robl. Serwin, Houston St., Kew York.
" DR. AYKIL I seldom fall to remove Eruptions
and Scrofulous Sorts by the persevering use or yonr
SARSAPARILLA, and 1 nave just now cured an attack
of Malignant Erysipelas with it. No alterative wa
possess equals the SARSAPARILLA you have sup
plied to the profession as well as to the people."
From J. F. Johnston, Esq., Wakeman, Ohio.
" For twelve years, I had the yellow Erysipelas
on ray right arm, during which time I tried all the
celebrated physicians I could reach, and took hun
dreds of dollars worth of medicines. The ulcers
were so bad that the cords became visible, and the
doctors decided that my arm must be amputated. I
began taking your SARSAPARILLA. Took two bot
tles, and some of your Pi Lbs. Together they have
cured me. lam now aa well and sound as any body.
Being in a public place, my case is known to every
body in this community, and excites the wonder or
all."
From Bon. Henry Monro, M. P. P., of Ktwcastle,
C. W-, a leading member of the Canadian Parlia
ment.
" 1 have used your SARSAPARII.LA in my family,
for general debility, and for purifying the blood,
with very beneficial results, and feel confidence in
commending it to thewfflicted."
St. Anthony's Fire, Hose. Bait Bheum,
Scald Head, Soro Eyes.
From Harvey Siekler, Esq., the able editor of the
Funkhamiock Democrat, Pennsylvania.
" Our only child, about three years of age, was
attacked by pimples on his forehead. They rapidly
spread until thoy formed a loathsome and virulent
tore, which covered his face, and actually blinded
his eyes for some days. A skilful physician applied
nitrate of silver ana other remedies, without any
apparent effect. For fifteen days we guarded his
hands, lest with them hb should tear open the fes
tering and corrupt wound which covered his whole
face. Having tried %vpry thing elife we had any
hope from, we began giving your SARSAPARILLA,
and applying the iodide or potash lotion, as you
direct. The sore began to y.eal when we had given
the first bottle, and was welkwhen we had finished
the second. The child's eyelashes, which had come
out, grew again, and he is now as healthy and fair
as any other. The whole'neighborhood predicted
that tfie child must die."
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
From Dr. Hiram Sloat, of St.'Louis, Missouri.
" I find your SARSAPARILLA a more effectual
remedy for the secondary symptoms of Syphilis
and for syphilitic disease than any other we possess.
The profession are indebted to jbu for some of the
best medicines we have."
From A. J. French, M. D., an eminent physician of
Laivrence, Mass., who is a prominent member of
the Legislature of Massachusetts.
" DR. AVER. My dear Sir: I have found your
SARSAPARILLA an excellent remedy for Syphilis,
both of the primary and secondary type, and effec
tual in some cases that were too obstinate to yield
to other remedies. Ido not know what we can em
ploy with more certainty of success, where a power
ful alterative is required."
Mr. Chas. S. Van Liew, of Kew Brunswick, K. J.,
had dreadful ulcers on his fegs, caused by the abuse
of mercury, or mercurial disease, which grew mora
and more aggravated for years, in spite of every
remedy or treatment that could be applied, until the
persevering use of AVER'S SARSAPARILLA relieved
nim. Fcwcasescan be found more inveterate and
distressing than this, nnd it took several dozen
bottles to cure him.
Leucorrhoea, Whites, Female Weakness,
are generally produced by Internal Scrofulous IT
ceration, and are very often cured by the alterative
effect of this SARSAPARILLA. Some eases require,
however, in aid of the SARSAPARILLA, the skilful
application of local remedies.
From the well-knotcn and widely-celebrated Dr.
Jacob Morrill, of Cincinnati.
" I have found your SARSAPARILLA an excellent
alterative in diseases of females. Many cases of
Irregularity, Leueorrhcca, Internal Ulceration, and
local debility, arising from the scrofulous diatheais,
have yielded to it, and there are few that do not,
when its effect is properly aided by local treatment."
A lady, unwilling to allow the publication of her
name, i crites:
" My daughter and myself have been cured of a
very debilitating Leucorrhaa of long standing, by
two bottles of your SARSAPARILLA."
Rheumatism, Gout, Diver Complaint, Dys
pepsia, Heart Disease, Neuralgia,
when caused bv Scrofula In the system, are rapidly
cured by this EXT. SARSAPARILLA.
