A Settler. I entered a log school-house once, where a , Debatin' Society' was holding forth up on a question 'lf a man saw his wife and mother in the water drowning, which should ho help out first ?' The question was considered with animation upon both aides Jor a while, when a 'backwardness' began to manifest itself. The president de sired debaters, 'if they had anything to say, to continue on.' After a pause, a peaked looking man in the back part of the house got up and said, with considerable confi dence and embarrasment: 'Mr. President: I thiuk if a man saw his mother and wife in the water drowning, he ought to help his mother out first: because, you see, if his wife did got drowned, he could get an other one, but he couldn't get another mother, not easy !' This settled the question and the ver dict was given 'accordingly.' Proper Cultivation of Land. There is one fact which cannot be too deeply impressed upon the farming com munity. It is that it costs as much labor to cultivate a piece cf land which brings about half a crop as it does one bringing a full yield. Whenever finances will permit, therefore, money should be spent freely to improve the land, in the purchase of suita ble fertilizers. It is far better than stow ing money away at 6 per cent. and leav ing the farm to suffer. Farmers will be poorly paid for their labor, as long as they do not put their land in a condition to bring good crops. The latter effected and his fortune is made--slowly, compared with some speculative enterprises it is true —but surely. Better cultivate less land and cultivate it well, than merely skin a large amount. This skinihg process is the greatest folly in the world. The land must be fed or it cannot produce well, and it wan's more feeding in many sections we might point out. We hope the farmers' market may continue good and furnish abundant "change," to buy fertilizers, which many farmers so much need. CURE FOR ROSE Buos.—A subscriber wishes to know if any one can suggest a method of preventing the yearly incursions of the rose-bugs; and having heard consid able eomplaint among our neighbors of having their .cucumbers, grapes and other fruit destroyed by these insects, I will sug gest a remedy. Plant in the centre of your garden a few damask rose-bushes, and they will never light on anything else.— We have a large garden with almost every kind of fruit, vines, shrubberry, and flow-' ers, with several kinds of roses, and in the centre we have four branches of damask rose-bushes, and I never saw in the whole garden a rose bug on anything but the damask rose. When they are in blossom I go into the garden once a day with a pan of hot water, and shake the bugs from these roses into the water, and get about a pint at one time; this I practice for a few days, and then they wil disappear.—Culltivator. Raising of Fruits. We have repeatedly called the attention of Farmers to the profit to be realized from the raising of fruit upon their farms, which car, be• done. with comparatively little cost or labor, and than which nothing in the market finds w more ready sale, at such good prices. We have seen patches of cultivated ground in the country, upon which all kinds of trees have been suffer ed to grow,, except fruit trees, when it was just as easy to have the places occupied by trees which would yield a crop which could always be sold to advantage:—Potts town Ledger. DRYING GREEN CORN.—It is said to be altogether the best method for dryin g g . green corn, to take full-grown ears and in a stove, baker or oven, to roast them as if for eating. When cold, shell off the kernels and give them a few days drying,. and bag away for winter use. A boiling of' eiight or twelve hours renders it a valuable in gredient for soups, or for eating with meats, and is a wholesome and nutritous food. PLUM CARE.—Make a cake of two cops of butter, two cups of molasses, two eggs, one cup of milk or buttermilk, one tea syoonful of salleretus, or volative salts (which is better;) a gill of brandy, and teaspoonful of esseence of lemon, and flour to make a stiff batter:. Beat it well; then add one pound of currents, well washed and dried by the fire, and one or two quar ters of citron. Bake in a quick oven.— This is a find rich cake,. easily made and not expensive. SALTING BUTS t.—Take of Sugar one. part, saltpetre one part; and clean strong salt two parts, beat them well'together, and put• by the preparation r.r use; of which take one ounce for every sixteen ounces of butter, and mix it thoroughly with the butter as soon as it is freed from the buttermilk. Butter salted in this man ner, and put down in close tubs, with alit tle melted butter poured over the surface; will keep good for many years. To double the crops of most farms, about all that is necessary is for our agri culturalists to sell off one halt of their land, and with the proceeds buy manure for the other. The larger the farm, the less a man grows to the acre. HORSE HADlSlL—horse radish should be grown for cattle. Give it to any ani mal to cure loss of appetite. If they will no , chop it up fine and mix it with etipotatocs or turnips, or with meal. Philadelphia Advertisements.

DR. HOOPLAND'S CELEBRATED GERMAN BITTERS, Prepared by DR. C. 11. JACKSON, AT THE GERMAN MEDICINE STORE, 120 Arch Street. Philadelphia. Their power over the above diseases is not ex celled—if equalled—by any other preparation in the United States, as the cures attest, in many cases after skilibl physicians had failed. These Bitters are worthy the attention of inva lids. Possessing great virtues in the rectification of diseases of the Liver and lesser glands, exer cising the most searching powers in weakness anti affections of the digestive organs, they are withal, safe, certain and pleasant. READ AND BE CONVINCED. From the "Boston Bee." The editor said, Dec. 22nd Dr. Elooflaiurs 'Celebrated German Diners for the cure of Livet Complaint, Jaundice, Dyspepsia, Chronic or Nervous Debility, is deservedly one of the most popular medicines of the day. These Bitters have been used by thousands, and a friend at our elbow says he had himself received an effec tual and permanent care of Myer Complaintfrom the use of this remedy. We are convinced that, in the use of these Bitters, the patient constantly gains strength and vigor—a fact worthy of great consideration. They ate pleasant in test and smell, and can be used by persons with the most delicate stomachs with safety, under any circum stances. We are speaking from experience, and to the afflicted we advise their use. "SCOTT'S WEEKLY," one of the best Literary papers published, said Aug. 25 “Da. lloomaxo's GERMAN BITTERS, manu factured by Dr. Jackson, are now recommended by some of the most prominent members of the faculty as an article of much efficacy in cases of female weakness. As such is the case, we would advise all mothers to obtain a bottle, and thus save themselves much sickness. Persons of debilitated constitutions will find these Bitters advantageous to their. health, as we know from experience the salutary effect they have upon weak systems.” MORE EVIDENCE The Hon. C. D. HINELINE, Mayor of the city of Camden, N. J., says "HOOFLAND'S GERMAN BITTEM-We have seen many flattering notices of this medicine, and the source from which they came induced us to snake inquiry respecting its merits. From inqui ry we were persuaded to use it, and must say we found it specific in its action upon diseases of the liver and digestive organs, and the powerful in fluence it exerts upon nervous prostration is real ly surprising. It calms and strenghtens the nerves bringing them into a state of repose, making sleep refreshing. "If this medicine was more generally used, we are satisfied there would be less sickness, as front the stomach, liver, and nervous system the great majority of real and imaginary discuses emanate. Have them in a healthy condition, and you can bid defiance to epidemics generally. This extra ordinary medicine we would advise our friends who are at all indisposed, to give a trial—it will recommend itself. It should, in fact, be in every family. No other medicine can produce such ev idences of merit. Evidence upon evidence has been receive!! (like the foregoing) front all sections of the Union, the also throa veers, and the strongest testimony in its favor, is, that there is more of it used in the prac tice of the regular Physicians of Philadelphia, than all other nostrums combined, a fact that can easily be esablished, and fully proving that a scientific preperation acct with their quiet approval when presented even in this form. That this Medicine will cure Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia, no one can doubt after using it as directed. It acts specifically upon the stomach and liver; it is preferable to calomel in all l ilioas dis eases—the effect is immediate. They can be ad ministered to female or infant with safety and re liable benefit at any time. Look well to the marks of she genuine They have the written signature of C. M. JACKSON upon the wrapper, and his name blown in the bottle, without which they are spurious. For sale Wholesale and Relate at the.
