7 V TJJK TIMKS, NEW BLOOMFIELT), rl, NOVEMBER 9, 1880. ... ,. J r HOUSE, FARM AND GARDEN. Country Roads. Mr. Editor: A correspondent of the Gettysburg Star and bcntinel makes the following remarks apout roads that - are applicable to our vicinity: A peasant at one tlmeas asked why he did not repair his cottage roof, repli ed, it did well enough in dry weather, and In rainy weather he could not work at that thing to advantage. The super, visors of country roads, generally act upon this philosophy. Iu the summer roads are paesable and in the winter they cannot be advantageously repaired. Why not do the work when it can, and should be done V The importance of good roads in agricultural districts can not be too highly esteemed. Farms are increased in value when the produce can be easily transported to the market town or the place where the farmer disposes of his produce. A road free from bad bridges, ruts, rocks and Btones, saves time and money for the farmer. His team can draw a larger load with less effort, and make the trip In a shorter time when the roads are in good repair, and the driver has less occasion to in voke the aid of Hercules or the Prince of Darkness, as he generally does when the wheels sink to the hub in the miry clay. It has been found by costly experience that the old plan of ordering out a force of men once, or at most, twice a year, to close up pit-falls, dig trenches, and throw a few shovelfuls of earth into the roadway, as we have noticed to be the case, is not productiv of the best results. A few heavy rains undo the work, and and the condition of the road thus re paired is worse than before the supervis or summoned the sturdy yeomanry to perform this part of their duty to the township or county. An experiment in road-making has recently been tried with much success in some eastern countries, which might be introduced in some township in Adams county with advantage. A machine called " the road scraper" is accomplishing wonders in this way, even in the eyes of men versed in all the mysteries of road-making. The new machine is said to be simple in construction, easily adjusted, and the coast of operating it is triffllng. A few men are set to work to grub out the projecting rocks, or roots, before the road scraper is brought into play, and when the way is clear, four good horses are harnessed to the machine and driv en closely over the bed of the road,which it crapes, levels and rolls down smooth as the floor of a bowling alley. The road is thus hardened and kept in thor ough repair, both in wet and dry weath er, with but little expense. We should like to see this tried. Who will be tho first. The Scraper referred to above we have eeli in operation and in the New England States they are considered in s despensible, times. To make Paint for One Cent a Pound. To one gallon of soft hot water add four pounds of sulphate of zinc, (crude). Let it dissolve perfectly, and a Bediment will settle at the bottom. Turn the clear sol ution into another vessel. To one gallon of paint ( lead and oil) mix - vonegalon of the compound. Stir it in to the paint slowly for ten or fifteen minutes, Mid the compound and the I paint will perfectly combine. If too thick, thin with turpentine. This reci pe has been sold to painters as high as $100 for the privelege to use the same in their business. t Answer This.

Ask your neighbor this same question. 43 2t Worth Remembering. Now that good times are again upon us, before indulging in extravagant show it is worth remembering that no one can enjoy the pleasantest surroundings if in bad health. There are hundreds of mis erable people going about -to-day, with disordered stomach, liver or kidneys, or a dry hacking cough, and one foot in the grave, when a 60 ct. bottle of Parker's Ginger Tonic would do them mora good u than all the expensive doctors and quack l medicines they have ever tried.

St. Albans, Vt., Jan. 20th, 1880. DR. J. B. KENDALL & CO., Gents: In reply to your letter I will say that my experience with Kendall's Spavin Cure has been vory satisfactory indeed. Three or four years ago I procured a bot tle ol your agent, and with it, cured a horse of lameness caused by Spavin. Last season my horse became very lame and I turned him out for a few weeks when he became better, but when I put him on the road he grew worse, when I dis covered thata ringbene was forming, I procured a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure, and with less than a bottle cured him so that he Is not lame, neither can tue Duncn u round. Respectfully yours, P. N. GRANGER. Perseverance Will Tell I 8tonghton, Mass., March 16th, 1880. B.J. Kendall & Co., Gents: In Justice to you and myself, I think I ought ts let you know that I have removed TWO BONE SPAVINS with Ken dall's Spavin Cure," one very large one; don't know how long the Spavin had been there. I have owned the horse eight mouths. It took me four months to take the large one off, and two months for the small one. I have used 10 bottles. The horse Is entirely well, notataltstltt.and no bunch to be seen or felt. This is a wonderful medicine. It Is a new thing here, but If It does for all what It has done for me its save will be very Kespect.ul,yffi..E.pAEKEB.
