IRRIGATING MEADOWS.
There are few subjects which merit the attention or
American farmers mere than that of irrigation. In
many parts of New England, and in the grazing and
dairy districts of Hiis-State and Pennsylvania, there
are thousands of acres of land that might be irrigated
in the simplest, easiest and most economical manne r
possible. We have often been surprised to see small
streams of water running to waste while the parched
and poverty stricken meadows in the neighborhood,
which might easily have been iirigated by this wa
ter, produced not more than a ton of hap per acre,
and often much less.
In irrigating, as in underdraining, it is frequently
necessary for a few neighbors to combine in the work.
And this is not always an ea=y matter io accomplish.
Tn fact, this is one of the greatest difficulties iu the
way of any plan for the introduction of irrigation.—
We have no remedy to propose which will overcome
this hindrance. All that we can do is to call atten
tion to the great advantages which irrigation would
afford in some sections, and endeavor to show that
such combinations as we have alluded to would be
mutually beneficial.
That irrigation is a great means of increasing the
produce of grass lands, will not be disputed. In Eng
land we have known many instances where at least
three times the amount of hay has been obtained
simply by irrigation, with ordinary water, from a
small stream that was dammed up and the water con
ducted in furrows and allowed to flow over the laud.
Ih the last number of the " Journal of the Royal
Agricultural Society of England," it is stated that
the spring feed alone on the irrigated meadows on the
Avon is sometimes let for S4O or SSO per acre, and
even S6O.
Levi Bartlett, in describing the farm of Mr. San
born of New Hampshire, in a recent number of the
Albany Cultivator, says Mr. S. commenced irrigating
his old mowing fields about twelve years ago. At
that time many of them yielded very scanty crops of
grass, not over ten to fifteen cwt. per acre. Now, by
the application of water alone, these fields yield two
tons of first-rate hay per acre, and those which have
Deen irrigated longest yielded the heaviest crops.
Boussingult, the well known French chemist and
farmer, considers a good meadow the cheapest means
of enriching the farm; and this is undoubtedly true
The extra produce obtained by irrigating grass lands,
when fed out to animals, furnishes an extra quantity
of manure for the use of the arable upland portions of
tho farm.—^Farmer.
IMPROVING ODD PASTURES.
At a recent agricultural meeting in Cheshire, Eng,
Richard Dutton read a paper on the " Agriculture of
Cheshire," in which he remarked:
An old pasture-field, rich-in good herbage, should
never be brought under the plow, on a dairy or graz
ing farm, without an urgent necessity. On our best
dry soils, old pastures are apt to become rough, and,
in some cases, covered with moss. This may be pre
vented, to a great extent, by a top-dressing of salt
during the winter at the rate of 10 cwt. per acre; or
in some cases, a good dressing of lime, at the same
time freely harrowing the surface, or what is less ex
pensive, stocking them with sheep during the winter
months, at the same time feeding them with com or
turnips. In a very productive summer, or when a
farmer has been unfortunate with his stock, he may,
with advantage, mow such parts of his pastures as
can be spared for the purpose. It is superfluous for
me to.say that on a very large proportion of our grass
lands draining and bone dusting are the great means
©f improvement. A question of some importance may
be asked : Are all our clay goils improved by drain
ihg for mowing and pasture purposes ? I think not.
When there i 3 nothing in the herbage produced which
indicates the presence of too much water, I think
draining will add nothing to the fertility of such soils
so long as they are in grass.
PURE WATER FOR STOCK.
A good draught of good water is, probably, as re
freshing to beasts as it is to people. But in the month
of August, nearly all domestic animals sufferfar more
than we imagine, for want of good water. Sheep will
thrive far better. Teams will endure the heat far
better if they can have a plenty of clean pure water
and if milch cows must drink stagnant water wherev- j
er tfcey can find it, how is it possible for them to give
their usual flow of good milk? It is impracticable
for them to do-it.
Some people allow water to stand in troughs day
after day, many times, and compel their animals to
drink it-ali up.- Did such people ever drin-t water
from an old dirty slop-pail, after it hadbeen allowed
to stand in the sunshine for two or three days ? Let
them try the experiment of drinking such water, and
wait the result; uud they will be prepared to express
a correct opinion, whether or not such water is as
good for stock, in the sultry days of August, as pure
oold water would be.
Water troughs and water tanks should be cleaned
frequently during the hot days of August, and fresh
water pumped into them several times a day.
Milk cows require a vast quantity of pure water in
hot weather, in order to produce their usuul flow of
good milk.
THE GRAIN DEMAND.
The demands for grain and breadstuffs is likely to
be unusually large. Not to speak of the foreign mar
ket, there will be a great demand at home. The op
erations of the war must have diminished the product
of grains somewhat in the North, and still more m
the South. With all the efforts of the Confederate
Government to secure an increased supply of bread
stuffs at homo, it is not likely that the South will pro
duce as much grain as usual. Every plantation has
telt the excitement of the times, and it is impossible,
under such circumstances, to get the usual amount of
lkbor from slaves. Our advancing army has found
destitution in many places, and there is, doubtless,
much more than has been heard of There cannot
fail to be a great demand for provisions in the South
ern States as soon as they are again thrown open to
cominerce. It- becomes us, then, to make most of the
season that is left us, in. raising all the turnips we can
The hay crop is short in many parts of the North,and
turnips will save hay. They will also save grain in
feeding pigs, sheep, horses and cattle. They will
make mutton and wool, beef and pork.

RECEIPT FOR EIGHT DUMPLINGS*
After making up your bread the second time, take
off a sufficient quantity for dumplings,and set it away
until about on hour before dinner ; then nuke them
up in rolls as you would-biacuit; sprinkle a little flour
ovwr your pie -board, and put them on it, far euough
apart to allow for raising. Have ready a boiler,with
sufficient boiling water to steam them; place the
steamer over it, and put in some of the dumplings, so
us not to touch each other, (see that the lid is placed
on tightly,) and let them remain ten inftiutes; then
remove them and put in others. Send them to the
taMe hot, to be eaten with cream and sugar, or butter
and molasses.

lOX AIX THE TTTBFOBEB OF A
j FAMILY PHYSIC
Theke has long existed a public demand for an
I effective purgative pill which could be relied on as
sure and perfectly safe in its operation. This has
been prepared to meet that demand, and an exten
sive trial of its virtues has conclusively shown with
what ?'*coess it accomplishes the purpose designed.
It is easy to make n physical pill, but not easy to
make the best of all pill* — one which should have
none of the objections, but all the advantages, of
I every other. This hai been attempted here, and
with what success we would respectfully submit to
the public decis'tn. It has been unfortunate for
the patient nitherio that almost every purgative
medicine is acrimonious and irritating to the bow
els. This is not. Many of them produce so much
griping pi in and revulsion in the system as to more
than counterbalance the good to be derived front
them. Thtse pill* produce no faritation or painy
unless it arise from a previously existing obstruc
tion or derangement in the bowels. Being purely
vegetable, no harm can arise from their use m any
| quantity ; but it is better that any medicine should
be taken judiciously. Minute directions for their
use in the several diseases to which they art ap
plicable are given on the box. Among the com
plaints which have been speedily cured by them, we
mav mention Liver Complaint, in its various forms
of Jaundice, Indigestion, Languor and Loss of Ap
petite, I.istlessness, Irritability, Bilious Headache,-
j Bilious Fiver. Fever and Ague, Pain in the Sid#
and Loins ; for, in truth, all these are but the tU-
I sequence of diseased action in the liver. As an
aperient thev afford prompt and sure relief in Cos
tiveness, Piles, Colic, Dysentery, Humors, Scrofula
and Scurvy, Colds with soreness of the body, Ulcer#
and impurity of the blood, Irregularities; "in short,
any ana every case where a purgative is required.
They have also produced some singularly sue
(v-Hsful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, GraveL
F.rysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in the
Back. Stomach, and Side. They should bo freely
j taken in the spring of the year, to purify the blood
( and prepare the system for the change of seasons.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into healthy action, and restores the appe
tite and vigor. They purify the blood, and, by their
stimulant action on the circulatory system, reno
vate the strength of the body, and restore the
wasted or diseased energies of the whole organism.
Hence an occasional dose is advantageous, even
though no serious derangement exisflr; but un
necessary dosing should never be carried too far,
1 as every purgative medicine reduces the strength,
when taken to excess. The thousand cases in which
a physic is required cannot be enumerated here, but
they suggest themselves to the reason of every
body ; and it is confidently believed this pill will
answer a better purpose tlian any thing which ha*
hitherto been available to mankind. When their
virtues are once known, the public will no longer
doubt what remedy to employ when in need of at
cathartic medicine. Bemg sugar-wrapped, they are
pleasant to take, and being purely vegetable, no
harm can arise from their use in any quantity.

This remedy has won for itself such notoriety
from its cures of every variety of pulmonary disease,
that it is entirely unnecessary to recount the evi
dences of its virtues in any community where it'
has been employed. So wide is the field of itrnse
- fulness, and so b.sr-rw the cases of its evtVes,
. that almost ever -est of the country abound*
in persons publicly known, who have been restored
I from alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs bv its vise. When once tried its superiority
over every other medicine of its kind is too appa
rent to escape observation, and where its virtues are
known, the public no longer hesitate what antidote
to'employ for the distrcs" and dangerous affec
tions of the pulmonary organs which are incident
to our climate. Not only in formidable attack*
upon the lungs, but for the milder varieties of
CoLiis, Coi'GHR, Hoarseness, &c. ; and for Chil
dren it is the pleasantest and safest medicine that
can be obtained.

has been, and that the genuine article is sold bv
