    - Awother Soak for Cera. -i
Dr. Samuel Webster, rd Charlestown, New
Hampshire, has published in the New Enf ahd
Farmer, . a communication detailing the result
of certain experiment which he made last year,
in soakinf corn the substance tof which we
will condense for the benefit of our render,
denmtnff his experiment worthy ofno'eot this
particular time. '.' ' '. ' : '.- i
Somu time last May, the doctor eeeidently
saw a notice of 6ome mode of preparing seed for
planting in Germany, which waa to ensure good
crops even "Pn poorpd barren land, at a trill.
log coat. What the preparation waa, the die
coverer refused to make known. " While thinking-over
the various substances that had been
or might be used with advantage, it occurred
to him that muriate of mmonia, the common
aalammnnia of the druggist hartshorn might!
snswer well for the purpose required, both from
the nature of its bane and ita acid, and he deter
mined to try the experiment of using it.
lie accordingly dissolved a , email piece,
weighing by estimate four or five grain, in o
bout half a coffee cup of water. Into that he
put a small handful of seed corn, and suffered it
to remain four or five hour, and then planted
it. By the eido of each hill, at a proper dis
tance, be planted another hill with corn from
the name ear, but un soaked. Generally at each
spot but one hill waa planted ; but in ono place
a hill of the soaked corn was planted oil each
side of the unsoaked.
No. 1, was planted in good, light roil, into
which a fair dressing of coarse long stable man
ure had been ploughed five kernels planted to
each hill. Result the soaked corn produced
eight ears, six good and two email ; the uiif-oak-cd,
four ears.
No. 2, hills two of soaked and betwern
them one of tinsoaked corn. Soil dry, sandy,
and closotothe edge of a path where little or
no manure fell in the spreading of it. Result
the soaked hills gave five ears, three of them
good ; the un soaked, three good ears. . -
Thedortor tried eix evprriments in all, and
each of the other four with corresponding
results with the above, which shows a very
large increased product in favor of the soaked
corn, which, as the treatment of the soil and cul
ture of all were alike, must be ascribed tolhe
virtue of the ammonia.
As the experiments triod by Dr. Webster
with only five grains of ammonia, and a small
handful of corn, to save our readers the trouble
of a calculation as to quantities, we will make
one ready to their hands. Preeumipg tint the
doctor's 'email handful' to have contained a gill
of corn, aa five grains served that quantity of
seed, and there are 5,700 graina in a pound of
ammonia, that quantity would answer, when
dissolved, as, a soak for 4 bushels of corn.
New then, as ammonia is a very cheap drug,
and the mode of Using it very simple, may we
not ask some of our enterprising farmer readere
to make an experiment of two acres of corn
one acre of seed soaked in a solution of ammonia
ond the other with unsoaked seed 1 The ex
periment would not cost them 50 cents, ard if
by so cheap a process, they can add from 50 to
73 per cent, to the products of their corn crop,
surely it is worthy of trial. We would, were
we about to test the t fiicaey of the doctor's soak,
roll the seed jiu-t bclbre planting in plaster; so
as to impart fixidity to the ammonia, and thus
longer continue its nutrient properties to the
corn plant, during the period of its growth j and
in order to fully teat the experiment, we would
plant one acre with seed soaked in a solution of
ammonia, unplaatered one acre of seed soaked
and plastered, and one acre with seed uneoaked ;
we would mark out the three acres in the same
field, manure and cultivate each alike, and
measure the produce of each acre separately
By pursuing this course, the result would not
only provothe value of the ammonial soak, but
that of plaster as an absorbent. American

Incombistiblk Wasii. Slack atone lime in
a large tub or barrel, with boiling water, cover
ing the tub or barrel, to keep in all the atcam,
When thus alacked, paas sis quarts of it through
a fine sieve. It will then be in a elate of fine
flour. Now, to aix quarts of this lime add one
quart of rock or Turk's Island salt, and one gal
Ion of wattr; then boil the mixture and skim it
clean. To every five gallons of this mixture,
add one pound of alum, half a pound of copper
as, by alow degrees, three quarters of a pound
of potash, and lour quarts of fine sand or hard
wood ashes, sifted. This mixture will no ad
mit of any coloring matter you please, and may
bo applied with a brush. It looks better than
paint, and is as durable at slate. It will atop
email leaka iu the roof, prevent the mots from
growing over and rotting the wood, and render
it incombustible from sparks falling upon it.
When laid upon brick work, it renders the
brick impervious to rain and wet. Emigrant's

Charcoal The preservative qualities of
thnrcoal are not to generally known aa they
Hhould be, and I bnpe you will tell your readers
that if they will imbed their amoked beef and
pork in some pulverized charcoal, they may
keep it as long aa they pleaae without rf gard to
weather. Tell them also, that if they will take
about a pint of charcoal also pulverised, and put
it into a bag, then put it into a barrel of new ci
der, it can never foment, will oever contain any
intoxicating quality, and i more palatable the
longer it is kept. Farther, take a piece of char
coal of a surf jee equal to a cubic inch, wrap it
in a clean cotton cloth two thicknesses, and
make moist, and work about on pound of but
ter which bas become rancid, and it will restore
it perfectly. 3tcAgen Farmer,

IJ'OR twenty years I waa aeverely afflicted with
. Titth on the Face and Headi the disease
commenced when I waa seventeen years old, and
continued until the Fall of 1836, varying in vio
lence, but wilhoul over disappearing. During most
of the time, gTeat part of my face was covered with
the eruption, frequently attended with violent itch
ing I my head swelled at times until it felt aa if it
would burst the swellim waa so gie it, that I could
scarcely get my bat on. - During jhe long penoJ
that I waa afflicted with tho disease, I used a great
many n plications, (among them several celebrated
preparations) aa well as taking inward remedies,
including a number ofdottleaof fiwnim'i Panacra,
Extract of Sarsaparilla, Ac, In fact, it would be
Impossible to enumerate all the medicines I used.
1 waa also under the care of two of the most dis
tinguished physicians of this city, but without re
ceiving much benefit, and I despaired of ever being
cured. . In tbe fall of 18:10, the disease at the time
being very violent, I commenced using the Rnte
Ointment, (prepnred by Vaushan fc Davia.) In
a few applications the violent itching cased, the
swelling abated, the rruotion began to diaippe.ir,
and before I had used ajar the di-easa was entirely
cured. It hae now been nearly a year and a half
since, end there is not a vestige of thfl disease re
maining, except the scars from the deep pits formed
by the di:-ense. It is impossible for me to describe
in a certificate the severity bf the disease and my
rufTrring, but I will be pie iscd to give a fuller ac
connt to any person wanting further satisfaction,
who will call on me. At the time I eommsneeJ
using the Re Ointment I would have given hurt
dieds of dollaia to be rid of the disease. Since u
sing it, I have recommended it to sevrnl iicrnona,
(among them my mother, w ho haJ the disease bad
ly on her arm,) who were a'l cured bv it.

'PUIS is to certify ti nt I was severely atllcicd
with Tetter in the hands and feet for upwards
of torty years ; the disease was attended generally
with io!cnt iu hing and swelling. I spplied to
number of physicians, and usid a great many uppli-
cations without effecting a cure. About a year
since, I applied the Rose Ointment, which ci.tircly
topped the itcljintr, anu a few application immedi
ately cured the disease, which there has been no
return of, although I had never been rid of it at
ny time for forty years. ItlCHAKD SAVAGE,

tors take pleasure in laving before tbe public the
following certificate from a respectable physician,
a eraduate of the Lniversity of Pennsylvania. Dr.
Baugb, having found in this temedy that relief for
a tedious and disagreeublc affection which the means
within the range of bis profession failed to afford,
has not hesitated to give it hia approbation, although
the prejudices and interests of that profession aie
opposed to secret (lemedies.

to except the Rose Ointment from that class of me
