STAR OF THE NORTH.
Rgncmtnrai department.
Faiut up the Iron Toole.
The action of the weather upon farm im
plements when they are not protected, we
have found hy experience, to do nearly as
much, and sometimes more, toward their
destruction than the wear and tear. Plows,
cultivators, and such like tools, are in use
only in the warmer parts of the season.—
During the winter they lie unused by their
owners, but, unless protected sufficiently,
the weather uses them pretty hard. The
farmer's use of them is severe at times, but
it is occasional and interrupted. The weath
er's use of them is constant, uninterrupted,
either by day or by night; every moment
of time the action of the elements, heat and
cold, expands and contracts, moisture per
<vades and rusts them, and oxygen combines
with them and forms coat after coat of rust,
corroding and rusting them away. It will
be a good plan during some of the spare
moments of winter time, say of a stormy
day, to'over-haul them, clean them np and
.cover the iron parts with paint and the
wood parts 100.
A mixture of sulphur and linseed oil
boiled together with or without any coloring
matter, is a good application. We also find
the following recommended by an exchange
paper, which will making a good cover
ing :
Take of coal taT, too parts; common
beeswax, one part; clarified beef's tallow,
two parts ; linseed oil, one part ; spirit
turpentine, one part, and fuse the whole
■over a slow fire. When liquified, stir in
lamp black, or any other coloring matter
that may be desired and apply while w arm.
Plows, wheels, barrows, crow-bars, culti
vators, and indeed any ofher farming im
plements, constructed either w holly or in
part of iron, should receive a coating ot
this every fall. It fills the pores and pre
vents all possibility ol corrosion.— Aluinc
Farmer.
A Stitch in lime.
The lenghtening days and melting snows
botoken the coming of Spring. Every far
mer rejoices in its coming, but is every oi.e
ready for it ? At the North little or nothing
can be done in working the soil, this mon'h,
except in the water of draining. But much
preparation can be made for Spring work.
Implements of all kinds should now be
looked over and put in good repair. Are
the plows in proper condition ; and of the
harrows are no teeth gone and none loose ?
The mar,ure-forks, shovels, spades, hoes,
crowbars, cradles, harness, wagons,chains,
•are they all at home, under the cover, anil
in complete order ? How often are tools
lent to neighbors, and not returned till cal
led for from necessity, and then are out of
■otder and must be sent to the shop for re
pair ? What a loss, then, of time and pa
tience and neighborly good feeling l
Let us also look into the seed department.
As grass and clover need an early start, no
time should now be wasted in securing
good -eed. So of wheat and oats and corn;
now is the time to look them over, and pro
vide lor sowing and planting. Whoever
has not good seed of every kind he expects
to use, should spare no pains or money in
securing them. It gives the cultivator no
little satisfaction and self-respect to know
that he has taken time by the forelock, and
made all needful preparation for his work
in advance. For him, as well as for every
body, il is a good rule to drive one's busi
ness and not be driven by it—" A stitch in
time saves nine"—often ninety-nine.
How THEY PUT OUT FIDES IN FRANCE
The Fire department of Paris, like the po
lice is a military organization, and consists
of 1.000 men. Its members are drawn from
the army, and are under the control of the
Minister of War, except when on duty as
firemen, when they obey the orders of the
prefect of police. They are picked, and
consequently efficient men, and are careful
ly trained and drilled in gymnastic exercises.
They are enrolled for the number of years
as soldiers in the army, and cost the treasu
ry annually 160,000 francs, a little overSlOO,-
000. They ware uniform, blue cassimere
jackets buttoned up to the throat, pantaloons
of the same stuff, made large, and a brass
cap. They have a sirong leather strap
round their bodies, in which there is a
ring, and by which they can be suspend
ed. Their principal arms is a lire axe. No
theatrical performance takes place, not
even a rehearsal, whether during the day
or night, without a squad of firemen on the
stage. They are also present at public
conserts and balls; every place,in fact over
which the police extends its protection and
its scrutiny. When they arrive at the
place on which they stand guard, they first
try all the hydrants and water coclts, to as
certain that there is no difficulty in the 6up
ply of water.

WHEN Gen. Ethan Allen was a prisoner
in Canada, he was dining with a party of
officers and their ladies, and seeing some
small red peppers on the table intended to
be cut up with meat to season it, he picked
one up and put it in his mouth. After chew
ing a while upon the though skin, he picked
it out of his mouth, and. looking rather ad
mirably at it and said, the tears starting in
his eyes : —"Ladies and gentlemen, if you
have no objections, I will put this little red
thing back," and he immedially suited the
action to the work.

It is a well known and incontroverlable

man is subject, as careful analysis and long
and painful experience have clearly proven
that 'I contains certain uorcoliu and poison

snge the functions and operations of the
Heart, causing many to suppose that organ
to be seriously diseased.
Tobacco uffecrs also the entire nervous
system, manifesting itself—as all who have
ever used the noxious weed will bear inatt
mony—in lassitude, Nervous Irritability,
Water Bra-h, Dyspepsia, hod many other
disorders of a similar character.
The taste Restorative Troche* are design
ed to counteract these betnelul influences,
and have proved completely successful in a

Being harmless in themselves they exert a

JAKRETT, OP THE NEW YORK LUNO
INFIRMARY'—My connection for the past
e ghl years with the above Institution, as
Chief Physician, and a twelve years' course
of steady devotion to the Cure of 'Pulmonary
Consumption and its kindred disease, togeth
er with my unrivalled opportunities and ad
vantages of pathological 'researches—aided
not a little by a perfect sy siefn of Mehical In
halation—has enabled me to arrive at a de
cisive, direct, and successful course of treat
ment for the positive "and radical cure of all
diaesses of the Throat, Lungs, and Air-Pas
sugei. By Inhalation, the vapor and curative
properties of medicines are directly address
ed to the diseased organs and the integurm-m.
'I do not ndvise the'use of medical Inhalation
of any kind, to the exclusion of general heat
meat ; arid although I consider it a useful ad
juvant in the proper management of those
learlul and often fatal diseases, yrt I deem it
very necessary that each pa'ient should have
the benefit ol both g social and local treat'
ment. The suocesß of my treatment in the
above diseases, and in the high character of
the Institution over which I have so long had
the honor to preside, are too well known to
need any eulogy 01 comment from me. At
the solicitation ol many private and p.-nfes
sio lal friends, through whose philanthropic
aid tire above charity has been long and lib
erally supported, and alter due consideration,
I have concluded to make such arrangements
ae will bring the benefits of my experience
and treatment within the reacti of all, and not
confine myself, as heretofore-, to those only
who entered the Infirmary, or who w-ere able
to visit me at my office. Hoping thetelore
that lite arrangement will give entire satislac
lion, both to nty professional brethem and
the public, I would tespeclfully announce in
conclneion that lean be consulted personally or
by letter, on all diseases as above, and thui the
medicines, the same as used in the Institution
brepared to suit each individual case. In
j haling vapars, Medical Inhales, &c. &u. will be
| lorwarded by express to any part ol the Uni
ted Stares or Canadas. TEUMS -My terms of
treatment by letter are as follows, via.: $l2
peTtnonlh for each patient, which will include
medicine sufficient lor one month's use-; al
so, inhaling Vapor, and an inhaling Apparat
us. Pay meiils as follows : $6 to paid to Ex-
I press Agent on receipt oi the box of Medi
cine, arid the balance $6 at the expiration of
the month, if the patient is cored or is entire
ly satisfied with the treatment. Patients, by
giving a lull history of their case, and their
symptoms in full, can be treated as well by
letter as by personal examination. Patients
availing themselves of Dr. Jarrett's treat
ment may rely upon immediate and perma
nent relief, as he seldom has to treat a case
over thirty days. Letters of advice promptly
answered. For fntber paotrculars address.
