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.

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.

Among other considerations which inspire hope
as to its future sums, the location is not unim
