fanim'si Satumir, THE '• AFTER-GROWTH ' OF GRAMS, A friend writes: " I have a large quantity of sec ond crop on ray mowing fields, and the question is to do with it. Shall I cut for hay or feed it off? My stabble fields are also full of young grass and clover —the season having been very favorable to a catch. Is it advisable to let the whole growth lay on the ground, or is it better to mow it or feed it off? If it ii fed off, what kind of stock shall be turned on !" In regard to the first of the above questions'wo may say, that whether the second crop of mowing flells should be cut or fed eff, or let alone depends on various circumstances.—lf there is as stated by our correspondent, a " largo quantity" of grastf on the ground, it is advisable, even in reference to the land or to the amount and quality ot the next crop to take off in ome v.ay, at least a portiOh If the crop is needed more for winter feeding than for immediate consumption, it may be made into hay, As we have remarked on previous occasions', after-math or rowon hay is, when properly cured, of the very best quality in reference to the production of beef, mutton, or milk. On fields which'wore mowed early, the second growth is generally large, this season. Most farmers in this section will 1 cut some for hay besides leaving consb'erabce to feed off. It will be better for the succeeding crop to cut'it pretty soon, to give time for the grass to start a little bofore the frost sets in- A oertain amount of covering for the roots is beneficial but too thick a' coat affords harbor to field mice; which do much injury, and, besides, " smothers out'' the grass, more or less. Probably as a general thing, it is better for the land, or for the next crop of grass, to leed eff the after math. On ground that is not wet, the sward is gen erally mado firmer, evener, and the herbage thicker and finer, by the tread of cattle in connection with their grazing. They should not oc allowed tc leave the ground too bare at the close of season.— Boston Cultivator. FARMERS NEGLECTING LITTLE THINGS. The Third annual report of the Secretary of the lowa Agricultural College says : —'' One of the great est evils in husbanlry is the small value placed up on little things. Even- a small farm of fifty acres is despised because so much land can be had' at such a low price to make it double or treble in size. Go through the country andinqnire into the circumstan ces of the small farmers, and it will be found that they arc better in nine cases out ot ten than those who pretend ro cultivate large farms. Why? Being compelled, perhaps, to support himself and family on his fifty acres, be makes good use of what he has; he does not despise small things. As he has not the means to enter into any one thing largely, if any fails ho does not lose much On the other hand, ho cannot afford to devote even half of hisrfarm to any one crop. His eyes aro used to some pusposc, by which ho learns the wants of the nearest market, and he pro races that which pays him best and is of sure sale at a fair) rofit. Ilis stock of all kinds is of the b< st, and it will not pay him to keep many. When he goes to tewn or his place of trading he docs not despise taking a bushel or two, of potatoes, some on ions, a cheeso or two, cabbage, or even pumpkins, not needed at home, and because not needed, consid ored worth'ess ; whatever he obtains is clear gain- There are many instances of this class of farmers who, bv thus making the small things bring them something, too small as considered by many, have paid for their little farms which they had purchased entirely on credit, and make themselves snug homes thereby." The grand secret of successful farming every where is to "learn the wants of the nearest raerkot," and adapt production to the end, and nev r neglect " lit le things." PURE WATER FOR HORSES. It is highly necessary that horses shouid be supplied with pure water: for impure water, like damaged food, is more or less operative as an indirect cause, in inducing an unhealthy condiiion of the digestive or gans Wo urge the owners of horses to attend to this matter, for it is wretched bad pclicy to lead a hard working thirsty horse to a trough containing water not fit to drown a cat in, and too bad to make tea for such a wretch as you Somo infectious and conta gious diseases can without doubt bo communicated through the medium of water. Sometimes a horse, the subject of snuio affection, either acute or chronic, of the respiratory passages, has a profuse discharge from' the nose ; this morbid secretion finds its Way into the water in the act of drinking, and the next horse that oomcs to imbibe is very apt to swallow a portion of fhis matter which is generally found floating on the surface. Trough water is further contaminated'by animals washing fbeir mouth and Irps id' tlib sarad; and bipeds who delight to visit a water trough iu worm weather 1 aro not over careful what they put into it. We have often found an old boot, or an " old soger." or a dirty sponge at the bottom of a trough in this city from which over twenty horses drank their daily supply of water. Attention to this matter may possibly prevent many cases of unnecessary disease. —Am. Veterinary Journal 9 OUR+NG-BACONV Having so frcqufetitly seefi'in your paper, questions askod about curing bacon, I give you my method, which has nc verjfa iied either with myself or others j for the last 30 jet.rs : I slaughter my pigs in tho morning, cut them up sad salt them the snnc night, taking out the two shoulder voins, which s very important. I get the Wst saltpeter I can, I use about one pound to a 3 •wt. pig, more or jess, afccoffiteg'to size. I jbst rub a little on the skin side, and sprinkle it on the other side, carofully putting it on the ends of joints or bones; then lay it in a tub, the hams first, covering ♦hem thoroughly with fine salt; then the sides, and so on until all is done, finally coverin all over w th fSffr salt. I let it lie three weeks ; then hang it up *o dry. I never have any more trouble, and ne'er had bad bacon by any chance. I always pound and dry, by fire salt, and saltpeter before usiog.— Irish Far.

PACKIXG APPLES—USE SALT BARRELS:— I The Al bany Journal says that "in packing npples away for winter, salt barrels should be used, if they can be had, as salt, being in its nature wholesome, impar s a healhy savor to the wood.

Indeed' very few are the diseases in which a Purgative Medi' cine is not more or less required, and much titfc. ness and suffering might be prevented, if a har®! less but effectual Cathartic were more freely used" No person can feel well while a costive habit of body prevails; besides, it soon generates serious and often fatal diseases, which might have been avoided by the timely and judicious use of a good purgative This is alike true of Colds, Feverish symptoms,and Bilious derangements. They all tend to become w produce the aeep seated and formidable distempers which load the hearses all over the land. Hence a "eliable family physic is of the first importance to the public health, and this Pill has been perfected with consummate skill to meet that demand. Aa extensive trial of its virtues by Physicians, Profe*. sors, and Patients, has shown result* surpassing any thing hitherto known of any medicine. Cur have been effected beyond belief, were they not mb stantiated by persons of such exalted position and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Amonfj the many eminent gentlemen who havj testified m favor of these Pills, we may mention: Prof. J. M. LOCKE, Analytical Chemist, of Ci- " cinnati, whose high professional character it en dorsed by JOHN MCLEAN, Judge of the Supreme Court of the United States. THOS. COKWIX, Secretary of the Treasury Hon. J. M. WUIOHT, Governor of Indiana. N. LONGWORTH, great wine grower of the West Also, DR. J. R. CHILTON, Practical Chemist, of New York City, endorsed by HON. \V. L. MAHCY, Secretary of State. WM. B. A.STOR, the richest man in America. S. LELAND & Co., Propr's of the Metropolitan Hotel, and many others. Did space permit, we could give many hundred i certificates, from all parts where the Fills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men is found ia their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and study, are offered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford. They are compounded not of ! the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues i only of Vegetable remedies, extracted jy chemical . j process in a state of purity, and combined together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition for medicines has been found in the Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to product a more efficient remedy than had hitherto been ob tained by any process. The reason is perfectly ob vious. While by the old mode of composition, every medicine is burdened with more or hiss of arri monious and injurious Dualities, by this each indi vidual virtue only that is desired for the curative effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious qual ities of eacli substance employed are left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Ifencc it ia self-evident the effects should prove, as they h&v proved, more purely remedial, and the Pill* a surer, more powerful antidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that my medicine should be taken under the counsel of an attending Physician, and as lie could not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, 1 have supplied the accurate Formula l hy which both my Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States ar.d British Amer ican Provinces. If, however, there should be any one who has not received them, they will be promptly forwarded by mail to his request. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, ho* few would be taken if their composition was known Their life consists in their mystery. I have t.c mvstcries. The composition of my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge theii conviction* of their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral waa pronounced by scientific men to be a wonderful medicine before its effects were known. Many em inent Physicians have declared the same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and are will, ing to certify that their anticipations were wore than realized bv their effects upon trial. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it into healthy action remove the obstructions of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derange- ments as are the fir.->t origin of disease. Being sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to take. and being purely vegetable, no harm can arifce from j their use in any quantity.
