ROOT CULTURE.
Will you allow me a few words of exhortation to ray |
brother termers, in regard to their growing more root 1
crops They are universally allowed to ha very nu- I
ritiou.- and highly beneficial feeuiDg purposes yielding
iram ens and requiring no groat out lay of labor or
but/.iltie land: yet many farmers neglect to grow j
he 10 much against their own intre?t. If those who I
have never fed them will supply themselves for ono
year, tbev will, t think ever grow them afterward.
In looking over the statistics f England we find
the root culture is carried ou to a great extent ; and
nowhere do we find as good stock, fis there, where
roots enter so largely into their food. The reason is
obvious ; during so long a confinement, on dry food,
the digestive and secretive organs become seriously
impaired, unless some substitute for their food—grass
—is offered in the shape of roots whose effects are
readily seen even w hen fed once or twice a week onlyi
I hesitate not in saying that stock can ho wintered
cheaper with a supply of roots than without them, as
more straw can be fed without injury.
Carrots, I think, take the preference, being more
nutritious, easilp digested, and, forming a good sub
stitute for giass- for the horse, there is nothing
compared with them— giving him an appetite, a
smooth glossy coat,, and healthy appearance. It is
also h 'ghly beneficial for broken wind,or heaver etc,
For milch cows, also, they are valuable increasing
the flow of milk, and adding to the quality of butter.
For young stock they develop the muscle and stimu
late the grofth.
For ihoir culture I need say but little, a3 most far
mers aro familiar with the process. Tiio ground
on which wheat, barley or oats, has been, is best
It should be thoroughly and deeply plowed iu the
fall —although a good crop can be grow* without,
but will be more weedy—and thoroughly harrowed
early in the spring, and allowed to remain until
from the middle to the twenty-fifth of Mhy, accord
ing to the season,dlien thoroughly manured with rot
ten manure, well cross-plowed, and again harrowed
removing all gras3 roots with a gvrdeu rake, Sow
by a lino in drills sixteen inches apart, cover with
half an inch of clean soil, press gently with the hoe
each drill. As soon as Iho plants obtain sufficient
•ire to be seen, hoe between the rows and remove all
vacancies. Another hoeing wilt suffice.
In harvesting, run a plow close along the drills,
whvn they can be removed easily by hand.
I prefer the white Belgium, or, the long orange
srieties; the latter being the best for the table,
but not yielding as well.— New York Arsua
WOO! .-C.ROW ERS' CON VEXTIO V.
rA convention of wool-growers was held at Cleve
land, Ohio, the other day, and was very largely at
tended The principal to, ic di cussed was whether
sbeaiitig should be done before or after washing.—
After a oare'ul consideration of the question, it was
resolved th it the practice of washing sheep be abol
ished. be ea use.
I"t,- -It peirnits cf early shearing, which secures a
greater quantity of wool,a longer stable, and a better
condition of shetp and ewes, through the year.
Of the exposure to eontagoius diseases, such
ai ? ;ii>. f.. t-rot, A in places frequented by differ
ent flocks to be washed.
3rd. —It is an expensive,unpleasant job, and un.
T ealthy both for man and sheep.
4th.—That the manufacturer must cleanse the
wool at all events, and he can do it cheaper than
the grower.
sth.—TL.it it is to the interest of the wiol-grow
•r to put their unwashed wool in as good conduit n
as possible, by keeping their yards well littered, and
by throwing away all tilth that can be separated
fro n he wool.
6th.— S"tne lots of wool are more gross and gum
my than others, tberelore no rate of deduction could
be agreed upon suitalbe to all grades and classes,
bat that each lot should be bought upon its own mer
it for quality and condition.
7th.—As generally practiced, washing is of little
or t" improvement to tho flefcee.

CKIXI) THE TOO .jS
Keep tba tools sharp or tiiey willnot eut. A dull tool j
w,i*te time an 1 he who permits it to work when in j
that condition, is a dull fellow. The best turners are '
those who have tho sharpest tools; the most success
ful surgeons u e the keenest, and the most enterpris
ing and energetic* men in civil life are those wL -
wit have been early ground sharp, ana whose preeeptve 1
faculties Lave been whetted by sore experience in
early life. A dull tool is a nselass iinpliuient, nnd a
thick haaod, unobservant person is the only one who
should bo foua i wielding it. The obtuse edge nei- ,
ther cleaves nor separates, but bruises and woiks off j
attrition particles of the substance on which it operates
Gruid up the tools, and sharpen the wit as well; if j
one is keen, the other will in all probability be in a ]
sidSiilar state from force of sympathy alone. A boy
with a dull pocket-knife is one who swings on the ,
gate an 1 do lire? his duty : he is one who in after-life I
will be a a dunce and and a curaberer of the ground ; j
he will ad i nothing to the war id of science, neither
will he take from it; his existence is merely animal
bis thoughts and ideas, if he has any, wholly eonven- |
tional. Hi? comrade, with R keen blade, makes mod- j
els of machinery, of boats or steamers, and in time j
he becoin s a George Steers, or so develops his moth- j
er wit as tol* a decided acquisition to the community J
Let us have ill the tools in good comlltirion, sharp, i
trenchant, and always ready for service ; then and j
then only will the result produced be equal to tho
time and labor expendod.
Kicktvo COWS.—A correspondent of the New Eng- '
land farmer, after trying many methods for break- j
ing cows of tho habit of kicking, employed success- j
f! Ily the one described below; adding that some of
his neighbors have proved its efficacy as a preven
tative. Ho says:
" When the eo.v kicks, catch tlie foot in the hand ]
an-] draw it close to the cow's body, holding it there ;
Batil she settle.- 'oak or. you, then let go of it. Af- ,
ter several vain attempt." ut kicking, the cow find- I
ing herself caught in b r own trap, is very careful
how sh takes up her loot while milking, and much,
more how she puts it down ,'

From Harvey Sickler, Esq., the able editor qf the
Tunckhannock Democrat, Pennsylvania.
" Our only child, &t>out three years oi age, was at
tacked by pimples on his forehead. They rapidly
spread until they formed a loathsome and virulent
core, which covered his face, and actually blinded
his eyes for some days. A skilftil physician applied
nitrate of silver and other remedies, without any ap
parent effect. for fifteen days we guarded his hanai.
lest with them he should tear open the festering and
corrupt wound which covered his whole face. Hav
ing tried every thing else we had any hope from, w#
began giving your SAKBAFABILLA". and APPLYING
the iodide of potash lotion, as you direct. The ion
began to heal when we had given the first bottle,
and was well when we had finished the second. Tha
child's eyelashes, which had come out. grew again,
and he is now as healthy and fair as any other. Tha
whole neighborhood predicted that the child mart
die."

"DR. AVER — My dear Sir: I have found your
SARSAFARILLA an excellent remedy for Syphilis,
both of the primary and secondary type, ana effect
ual in some cases that were too obstinate to yield to
other remedies. Ido not know what we can em-
Soy with more certainty of success, where a power
-1 alterative is required."
Mr. Chas. S. Van Liew, of Ncio Erunstrck, F.J.,
had dreadftil ulcers on bis legs, caused by the abuie
of mercury, or mercurial disease, which grew mors
and more aggravated for years, in spite of every
remedy or treatment that could bo applied, until tha
persevering use of AVER'S 3 AEPAFAUILLA relieved
rim. Few cases can be found more inveterate and
distressing than this, and it took several dozen bot
tles to cure him.
Leucorrhoca, Whites, Female Weakness,
are generally produced by internal Scrofulous Ulcer
ation, and are very often cured by the alterativi
effect of this SAKSAPAUILLA. Ssoine cases require,
however, in aid of the SARSAFARILLA, the skilful
application of local remedies.
From the well-knoicn ant! widely-celt bratei Dr.
Jacob Morrill, of Cincinnati.
" I have found your SARPAPAUILLA an excellent
alterative in diseases of females. Many cases of ir
regularity, Leucorrhrra, Internal Ulceration, and
local debility, arising from the scroftilons diathosin.
have yielded to it, and there are few that do not.
when its effect is properly aided by local treatment "
A lady, unwilling to allow the publication of her
name, writes:
" Mv daughter and myself have been cured ofi
very debilitating Leucorrhaea of long standing, by
two* bottles of your SARSAFARILLA."

pepaia, Heart Disease, neuralgia,
when caused by Scrofula in the SYSTEM, are rapiilf
