. Lime in Agriculture.
. The Journal .0 Forestry briefly euros
up many of the uses of lime when ap
plied to the Boll. The eflects of lime as
will be seen, are lu part mechanical and
. 'in part chemical. '
1. ,Upon deep alluvial and clny soil it
increases the orop of potatoes, and ren
ders them less waxy. Sprinkled over
potatoes in & store heap it preserves
them, and when riddled over the cut-sets
it wonderfully increases their fertility.
2. Lime eradicates the finger and toe
. disease in turnips, and gives greater
soundness to the bulbs.
- 8. It.glves, when applied to meadow
land, larger produce of more nutritious
grasses. It also exterminates coarse and
6our grasses, destroys couch grass, and
act powerfully on ryegrasses.
.' 4. Upou arable land It destroys weeds
.of various kinds.
. 5. It rapidly decomposes vegetable
' matter, producing a large amount of food
' for plants in the form of carbonic acid
gas.
0. It destroys or neutralizes the acids
in the soils ; hence its adaptability to
sour soils.
7. It acts powerfully upon some of the
inorganic parts of the soil, especially on
the sulphate of iron in peaty soils, and
the sulphate of magnesia and alumna.
8. It proves fatal to worms and slugs
and the larvue of injurious insects,
though favorable to the growth of shell-
. bearers.
' 0. Slacked lime added to vegetable
matter causes it to give off Its nitrogen
)n the form of ammonia. Upon soils
in which ammonia is combined with
acids, it sets free the ammonia which is
seized upon by the plants.
' ' 10 Its solubility in water causes it to
sink into and ameliorate the subsoil.
When the soil contains fragments of
granite or trap rocks, lime hastens their
decomposition and liberates the silicates.
11. Its combination with the acids in
the soil produces saline compounds, such
as potash, soda, etc!
Eattle Between a Fheasant and a Black
- entke.
A few days since, Colin Minor, of
Waynesburg, Pa., while in the woods
hunting, seated himself on a log to rest,
when his attention was attracted by the
tound of what he supposed to be chick
ebs fighting. On approaching the spot
where the contest was going on he dis
covered a hen pheasant battling with a
blacksnake. She seemed to be greatly
excited and would make vigorous at
tacks upon the snake, picking and
striking it with her wings. His snake
ship was coiled, and did not seem to of
fer much resistance, simply warding off
the blows by striking at the pheasant
and guarding Its body from her attacks.
After witnessing the scene for some
time, Mr. M. shot the snake, when upon
examination he found that it had one of
the pheasant's eggs in its mouth. The
snake measured about eight feet in
length.
Buckwheat Bread.
An Oregon lady correspondent says
Buckwheat bread can be made as fol
lows : Take two or three cups of sour
"milk and enough of buckwheat flour to
make a stiff batter about as stiff as you
can well stir it with a spoon. Add about
. one tablespoonful of saleratus. Bake in
a buttered dish or gem pan in a middling
hot oven. It is good, hot or cold or
warmed over. It can be steamed or
, moistened and warmed in the oven. It
takes place of all griddle cakes, and
very best of bread.
' Sure and Simple Cure for Warts.
I will send you a recipe for curing
warts, which I have tried and know it
to be a sure cure. Procure wild turnip
out of the woods, cut a piece of it off
. and rub the inside of it on the wart a
few times, and in a short time the wart
will be gone and will not leave any scar
at all. If the wart is large and raw it
will be a little sore. I had nearly a
hundred warts on my hands, and I put
off the turnip and they are entirely gone.
Try it, one and alL
-' jgg A Pennsylvania correspondent of
the Ohio Farmer finds the common
black ant an efficient protection against
the plague of currant worms. He has
,' several colonies of ants close to his cur-
rant bushes, and enjoys an abundance
of currants, while his neighbors' bushes
ore overrun with worms. Formerly he
took pains to destroy ant colonies, where
us now, on witnessing their attacks
upon the worms, he protects and encour
ages them.
. C-Ji" One of the most profitable crops
that cuu be raised on a farm is horse
radish, which during the winter season
ilnds a ready sale, if near a city.

A r3EW DEPAtJTUREI
BEST PLOW IN TKE WORLD !
THE SYRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO.
of Eyraouse, N. Y.
Are now putting on the market a now that
is as much superior to any Plow heretofore
made as the Plows of the past fow j-cars have
been Buperlor to those made half a century
ago.
It combines ell the excellencies of any Plow
in use.
It obviates all the objections mado to any
othor Plow. r
In addition It embraces several new features
of the greatest value, for which wo have ob
tained exclusive Patents,
ItsBeam,Clcvls, Jointer Standard and Yheel
Standard will be STEEL, and its mold board
will be a composition of Btccl and Iron chilled
under a process for which wo havo also
obtained an cicluslvo Patent. It will bo
called
THE SYRACUSE
Its wolgrht will be eighteen pounds less than
our present styles.
A first-class Steel Plow, mndo In tho or
dinary way, full rlg-ged, retails for twenty-two
dollars. Inferior Btccl Plows retail from six
teen to nineteen dollars.
The prlco of our new Plow will bo but
Seventeen Dollars, and it Will bo tho
cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold.
Its mold board will outwear threo of tho
very best kinds of tho ordinary steel mold
boards.
It will scour In soils where all Eteel plows
and all othor plows have hitherto proved a
failure.
, With this Plow will be Introduced a corru
gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on which
wo have also obtained a Patent, and which l:i
also a great improvement, both as regards
strength and wear.
Tho Jointer can be Blurted so as to take
more or less land, and also more or less pitch,
and it can always bo kept on a lino with Uio
Plow.
Tho wheel will run under the beam or one
side of It as desired, and always kept in Une.
The beam is adjustable for Spring or Fall
Plowing, and also for two or throe horses.
The handles can be adjusted to accommo
date a man or boy, on the same Plow.
It Is a perfect Plow.
Wooden beams are going out of use because
they shrink, swell and warp, and novor run
two seasons alike.
Iron beams are too heavy.
Malleable beams become demoralized and
bend, which is much worse than to break.
A Steel beam la the necessity of the day. It
Is three times as strong and very much lighter
than any other stylo.
When say a Mold board Is chilled, Uia
farmers know It is so.
We do not palm off on them a composition
of various metals and call It chilled metaL
Wo want agents for this new Plow in every
town In tills State.
We can give but a very Bmall discount to
them, but wo will pay the Railroad Freight.
We propose to place this Plow In the hands
of Farmers as near the cost of manufacture
as possible.
It will bo the beet Agricultural Implement
ever sold.
It shall also be tho cheapest. .
Persons therefore who are not willing to act
as agents on tho principle that " a nimble six
pence Is better than a slow shilling," need not
apply for an agency.
Ko Plows on commission. All sales absolute.
ra'-Thts laths only Steel Chilled Plow In
tho World.
Steel costs several times more than Iron.
But this Plow, full rigged, by giving small
discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars.
Compare Uus price with Uiat of any Iron Plow
ever made.
It is cheaper than any other Plow now
mado would be at five dollars and a halt
Where there are no agents we will, on re
ceipt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any
ltallroad station la the State and pay the
freight. Address,
