    Saltpetre for Peach 'Trees.
The liilo%,ing is extracted lion a letter
of Lyttleton Physic, M. D. to John S.
Skinner, Esq., published in the American
Farmer:—
" I wrote an article upon the use of salt
and saltpetre for fruit trees, which was
published in the Cultivator-1 think it will
be found in the number for August, 1841.
I use one part of saltpetre to from four
to eight quarts of common salt, and apply,
in its solid state, about halt a pound of
this mixture to a bearing tree, upon the
surface of the ground,and in close connec
tion with the trunk of the tree. I never
disturb the earth about the tree. For a
long time I applied it three times in the
course of the year, though twice, I now
think, will answer. I have heretofore
applied U in April, June, and the first of
September.
Of fire hundred trees, three hundred
were treated with salt and nitre, and two
hundred left without its use. Those
around which the salt and nitre where
put, were ajtd still continue entirely ex
empt from worms; of those left without
the use et salt and saltpetre, not one es
caped the ravages of the peach worm.
In your address you Speak of the prac
tice of taking out the worms with a hooked
wire. Allow me to suggest the proper
time for destroying them, (wich is from
the 15th to the 25th of Augnst with me,)
when they have enveloped themselves in
a cocoon, or otherwise, are in their chrys
alis state. The envelope of the uurelia is
made up of the tree, and resembles the
outer bark in color, and will be found ly
ing under the gum on the ground or in
connection with the tree. I have taken in
this way as many as thirty•nine of these
worms from one tree, and have sedulously
watched them building their cells for
hours together. The greatest distance I
ever ob , a!nel one from the tree, was about
3 1-2 . inches.
It is generally believed that this worm
causes the yellows. This it may do, but
Ido not believe that such a ease occurs
once in a thousand. I have perceived the
yellows in young trees about which there
never was a peach worm, and upon taking
them up have examined them,
but no
trace of that insect could be found."
The Cut Worm.
Salt has been repeatedly recommended
in many of the agricultural papers as an
infallible repeller of the cut worm. 1
have tried only one expetiment,as follows:
Cabbage plants were encircled a few
inches front the stem, with a ring of salt
about an inch wide and a quarter of an
inch thick; in other cases the salt was
thickly strewed about them and in contact
with the stems. in neither case, the cut
worms paid the least attention to the salt,
but walked right through it and destroyed
the plants. In one instance, a cut worm
was found after having eaten oil a plant,
quietly reposing, with all the apparent
ease anti indifference of a philosopher, in
a white bed of nearly clean salt.
The best remedy appears to be the ap.
plication of a roll et parer around the
stems when the plant is set out, extending
an inch above the surface, and three or
four below. A burdock leaf wound round
the stem, will answer the same purpose
where cultivators are so fortunate as to
have this plant on their ground --16.
White Daisy or Oa Eye,
This weed is a pest to the Farmer and as
we see it is rapidly spreading in all parts
of the state, where it has obtained a foot
hold, we publish for the benefit of those
on whose farms it is found, the following
extract from an Essay, which obtained the
premium offered by the Pictou, N. S.,
Ag. Soc., for the best means of destroying
this weed. We cannot omit to urge upon
farmres the necessity of paying attention
to the first appearance of weeds on their
farms, end of eradicating them effectually
in the onset. The annual loss to the
country from weeds in crops, is immense.
We know of many farms where the
prevalence of the t histle,steinkrout, Johns•
wort, dai 4y &c, &c., is so great as to pre
clude the hope of a good clop. Any
weed is easily s overcome on its first appear
ance; but when it gets firmly rooted and
widely spread, as it soon will, if unmoles
ted, it is eradicated with difficulty. We
have never beer, troubled with the daisy,
but the system here recommended for
their desk uction, appears reasonable and
worthy of trial.
Th; writer of the Essay says—. I have
had a good deal of expirience
with the daisy, (white or ox eye,) and
kvould respectfully offer the following as
the most effectual means of eradicating
them when they have once got possession.
Take a field that is as full of them as it
can be; between the fifth and the fif
teenth otJuly,take the hay off, and plow it
about four or five inches deep with a flat
furrow. Let the field lie 12 or 14 days;
then cross plow it with a furrow one or
two inches deleper,well set on edge. Al
ter it has lain four or five days, put on
harrows with long sharp teeth,so that they
may go down as deep as it is plowed.—
Let the harrowing be done in angling di
rictiona through the field. Then wth a
hand rane, rake up the roots into small
heaps and burn them. After a few days
plow it into ridges for sowing. Between
the 20th and 30th days of August, sow
from three pecks to a bushel of clean tint.
othy seed to the acre: harrow it with a
light harrow,fand water furrow it. If the
land is wet, roll it with a light roller, and
if dry with a heavy one. By these ope
rations, I am satisfied that this and every
other weed, as well as the eggs of insects,
grawhoppers, &c., are comptetely de.
strcyed. '—lb.
She Won't Stay Courted?'
" Why don't you pay attention
to some of the pretty girls who
look so invitingly as though they
would almost ask for a beau?" says
an old gentleman to his nephew'
who was already on the wrong
side of thirty.
" Why uncle," replies the ne
phew, you know that I always love
the girls and that in other years
I courted some half a dozen of
them in succession. But while I
was seriously engaged in making
preparations for marriage, they
were as seriously looking out
for another chap. It did no
good ; they wouldn't stay courted
" Ah, Bill," exclaimed a sues
cessful candidate at the altar of
Hymen, " you always remind me
of the odd half of a pair
of scissors. You have grown
old and torpid by pressing the
cold celibacy so long. Spruce up
and take a wife ; and be done
with it.
Rot em," retorts Bill, " you
want to have mei jilted again, I
suppose. 1 han't forgot the affair
with Dorcassina Amelia Amanda
Street-yarn; it is impossible to
imagine what a loving time it was
that snug bit of a courtship I had
with her, Amanda sighed so lan
guidly, sung so lovingly upon me
and talked so sentimentally about
love, friendship and eternal con.
stancy,that I verily concluded she
was all my own. About that time I
took a trip for six months to see
the world before I became bound
for life. Well, when I returned
Amanda had found a new flame.
She now 'looked askew at me, as
much as to say, " your cake is all
dough." She didn't stay courted.'
" Report goes, -lack that you've
put somebody's nose out of joint,"
whispers one crony to another, in
a very confidential way, but
that's in er nos. Now! advise you
to strike when the iron is hot.—
Remember ! Once, she dicrnt
stay courted
"lt is true !" soliloquises my
friend, with the martial air and
wide ruffle, then it stands me in
the hand to look out, , else my
Dulcenia will slip through my
fingers. For tho' 1 throw myself
in her way as often as convenient
—follow hard after her in the 'nee=
ting house, yet it is possble she
may not stay courted, for all that.
Ladies, it is even so. Cases
for " breach of promise" have be
come very fashionable.
A great woman not imperious,
a fair woman not vain, a woman of
common talents, not jealous, an
accomplished woman who scorns
to shine—are four wonders just
great enough to be divided a
mong the four quarters of the
globe.

Dr. Moffat's Life Pills
PIICENIX BITTERS.
The perfectly safe, unerring and suc
cessful treatment of almost every speices
of disease by the use of Dr MOFFAT'S
LIFE MEDICINES, is no longer an experi
ment ; as a reference to the experience of
many thousand patients will satisfactorily
prove. During the present month alone,
nearly one,hundred cases have come to the
knowledge of Dr. NIOFFAT, where the pa
tient has to all appearance, effected a per.
mattent cure by the exclusive and judicious
use of the Life .Medicines—soire eight
or ten of these had been considered hope
less by their physicians. Such happy re.
sultsare a source of great pleasure to Dr.
M.. and inspire him with a new confidence
to reecommend the use of his medicines to
his fellow citizens.
The LIFE MEDICIEB4 are a purely Vv..
GETABLE preparation. They are mild and
pleasant in their operation, and at the
same time thorough—acting rapidly upon
the secretions of the system—cat rying oft
all acrimonious humours, and assimilating
and purifying the Wood. For this reason,
in aggravated cases of Dyspepsia, the
Life Medicines will give relief in a shorter
space of time than any oilier prescription.
In Fever and Ague, Inflammatory Rheu
matism, Fevers of every description, Sick
Headaches, Heartburn, I) zziness in the
Head, Pains in the Chest, Flatulency, Im
paired Appetite, and in every disease ari
sing from impurity of the blood, or a dis•
ordered state of the stomach, the use of
these medicines has always proved tu be
beyond doubt, greatly superior to any
other mode of treatment.
All that Dr. Moffat asks of his patients
is to be particular in taking them according
to the directions. It is nut by a newspaper
notice, or by any thing that he may say in
their favour, that he hopes to gain credit.
It is alone by the result ofa fair trial. Is
the reader an invalid and does he wish to
know whether the Life Medicines will
suit his ov n case 1 If so, let him call at
the office of the agent, and procure a copy
of the Good Samaritan, published gratui
tously. He will there find enumerated
very many extraordinary cases of cure;
perhaps some exactly similar to his own
