TIM Time tho Cut Wheat.
This has been made a waiter of care
ful exp,iriment is Fee, Lind tout h
eioreilepends upon it thae is generaily
eaprused.
Prom a vory careful series of experi
ments made in England, in 1' , 40-41, by
,Idr. John, Iluntnau, of Yorkshire, with
e view at determining the proper period
of reaping wheat, it was decided that
the best time for perf,rming the opera
tion
is, when it i. in a "raw" stare, or
when the straw,a4 seen from a di-tance,
appears gi,xen, but, closely exaieintel, is
found to bo approximating to y elluw,'
and the grail) ttsch , boing separated
from the eliall'„is pulpy and soft, but
re.tjn the milky stage. This gentleman
has shown that, at least -.ix dollars per
ecru are fo4 by allowing the wheat to
bceoine ripe before it i, cut, and, that
at the same time, it, quality is not so
g 444.
The chief advantages derived from
this method, ere -toted to he a grouter
N-eirztit of grain to a given space of
grqund, which produces more flour, of
a- superior quality; the straw contains
wore entritive nettrtr, and is better
relished by animals; and there ie a bet
ter opportunity of securing the crop,
and a saving in so doing ; as there is
WA waste in moving or reaping the
what by the dropping out of the seed.
It wtll be seen in this matter, how
much a farmer's success depends upon
an accurate knowledge of his buemess.
.Even in so small an item as the mating
of grain, the owner ()nifty acres would
Jose three hundrel dollars, hy harvest
ing a few days too late. There are
many other farm operations in which
accurate knowledge i 3 quite as impor
tant. Is it any wonder that so many
.uf oar 'linnets do not make money
w Wen there area hundred holes in their
pockets, through which the money is
dripping out iu dollars, dimes, and cents.
The whole year is a scene of prodigal
Wald; for want of a little knowledge.
Wood is wasted for want of a good
stotre, or a tight house.. Ashes are
%%listed for want of a dry place to put
them. Fodder is wasted for: want of a
tight barn .to shelter cattle, in the win
ter nights. Manures are wasted for
want of a barn cellar, and sheds, and
ebsorbents. Labor is wasted for want
of manure to produce maximum crops.
Is it strange with all-these leaks, that
the farineee till does not till up faster?
To Kill Burdocks.
There areinany ways to exterminate
this pest, but the following is highly
reetemtrionded : Let the plant grow
until Midsummer, when the stalks and
leaves are full of sap. Then cut off the
roots with a strong, sharp Rpade, two
or three inches below ground, pluck off
the plant with a smart pull, and stamp
the ground firmly over the remaining
stump. It will seldom sprout again;
but if it does, it will be in so weak a
state that another application of the
spade will end the matter.
A, Truthful and Cheap Baroincter.—
'Take a clean glass bottle and put in it-a

A Remedy forßats.—When a house is
infestqd by rats which refuse to nibble
at the Usual bates, a foiv drops of the
highly scented oil of rhodium, poured
on the bottom of a cage trap, will al
most invariably attract it full of the
"mischeivous varmints." We lave
known this to be tried with extraordi

with-till manner of edibles bad failed to
attract a single rat, the oil of rhodium
caused it to be completely crowded
night after night, until the house was

Important Discovery.
C °N.
U.IIPTION and all Diseases of the
Lungs and Throat are positively Cured
I by Inhalation, which conveys the remedies
I to the cavities in the lungs through the air
passages. and coming in direct contact a ith
the diseaihi, neutralizes the tubercular matter,
• allays the congh, cluifea; a free and easy ex
pectoration, heals the longs, purifies the
' blooi,imearts renewed vi•ality to the nervous
system, giving that tone and energy so indis
i pensable for the restoration of health. To be
able to state confidently that Consumption is
curable by inhalation, is to me a source of
unalloyed pleasure. It is as much under tho
control of medical trestmeut es any other for
. mWile disease ; ninety out of every hundred
c can be cured in the first stages, and fifty
per cent. in the second ; but in the third stage
!it is impossible to save more than five per
cent , for the Lungs are so cut up by the dis
' ease as to bid defiance to medical skill—
! Even. however, in the last stages, Inhalation
affords extraordinary relief to the suffering
attending this fearful scourge, which annually
destroys ninety-five thousand persons in the
United States alone: and a correctcalc tion
shows that of the present pop latio f the
earth, eighty millions are desti fill the
Consumptive's grave.
Truly thequiver of death has no arrow so
fatal as Consumption. In all ages it has
been the great enemy of life. for it spares
neither age nor sex, but sweeps off alike the
bravo, the beautiful, the graceful and the
gifted. By the help of that Supreme Being
; from whom cometh every good and perfect
gift. I am enabled to offer to the afflicted a
permanent and speedy cure in Consumption.
The first cause of tubercles is from impure
blood, and the immediate effect produced by
their deposition in the lungs is to prevent the
Tree admission of air into the air cells, which
causes a weakened vitality through the entire
I system. Then surely it is more rational to ex
pect greater good-from medicines entering the
I cavities of the lungs than from those admin
istered through the stomach : the patient will
always find the longs free and the breathing
easy. after Inhaling remedies. Thus, Inhala
tion is a local remedy, nevertheless it acts
I ()constitutionally, and with more power and
certainty than remedies administered by the
stomach. To prove the powerful and direct
influence of this mode of administration,
chloroform inhaled will entirely destroy semi-
Linty in a few minutes, paralysing the entire
nervous :System, so that a limb may he am
putated without the slightest pain ; inhaling
the ordinary burning gas will destroy life in a
few hours.
The inhalation . of ammonia will rouse the
system when fainting or apparently dead.—
The odor of many of the medicines is percepti
ble in the skin a few minutes after being in.
haled. and may be immediately detected in
the blood. A convincing proof of the conati.
tutional effects of inhalation, is the fact that
sickness is always produced by breathing foal
air—is not this positive evidence that proper
remedies, carefully prepared and judiciously
administered through the lungs should pro
duce the happiest results? During eighteen
years' practice. many thousands suffering
from diseases of the lungs and throat, have
been under my care, and I have effected many
remarkable cures, even after the sufferers had
been pronounced in the last stages. which
fully satisfies me that consumption is no
longer a fatal disease. My treatment of con
sumption is original, and founded on long ex
pc' fence and a thorough investigation. My
perfect acquaintance a ith the nature of tuber
cles, ac., enables me to distinguish readily
the various forms of disease that simulate con,
sumpuon, and apply the proper remedies, rare
ly being mistaken even in a single case. This
familiarity, in connection with certain patho
logical and microscopic discoveries, enables
me to relieve the lungs from the effects of con
tracted chests, to enlarge the chest, purify the
blood, impart to it renewed vitality, giving
energy and tone to the entire system.
Medicines with full directions sent to any
I part of the United States and Clinadas by
' patients communicating their symptoms by
letter. But the care would be more certain if
the patient should pay me a visit, which
would give me an opportunity to examine the
lungs and enable me to prescribe with much
I greater certainty, and then the cure could be
effected without my seeing the patient again.
