THE JACQUES STUMP EX TRACTOR. For many years, indeed as long as the clearing of forest land for agricultural purposes has been necessary, (and this period dates anterior to the days of Co lumbus,) thegreat difficultyin clearing has been to get rid of the stump or root of the tree which. remained in the ground after the tree was felled and converted into the thousand and one uses for which the timber was neces sary. . In such land, interlayed with roots and stumps, the modem improve ments in agricultural implements could not be made use of, and in these days when all sueh labor-saving ma chines are most essential to the thriv ing farmer or Rlanter, he must first look to the radical clearing of his land. Oar enterprising fellow-citizen and mastermechanic. Mr. James M. Eason, has given this subject much of his at tention of late, and has been so success ful as to invent a very simple machine which has been illustrated and describ ed ih the December number of the Ru ral Carolinian but which was not put to the test until yesterday. This new invention of Mr. Eason is appropriate ly called the "Jacques stump extrac tor;" and en trial yesterday with a le verage of only 36 inches, it raised 16, 000 tons of iron; while the young man who worked the lever felt nomore inconvenience than if working a com mon ebstern pump. With a ten-foot leverage, a man, it is supposed, could raise one hundred tons; and the stump which would resist this force should be left to its native bed. Mr. Eason has applied for a patent for the extractor, and in the course of a few days will take it up-to some of the neighboring farms and extract some of the hind teeth of old mother earth.-Charleston News. CONCENTRATED MANURE. Mr. D. Lee has the following to say on this inteiesting subject in the Ru ra fNew Yorker: In an essay by Dr. James R. Nichols, published in the Agriculture of Mas sachusetts for 1868, he remarks: "A pound of good thoroughly formed peat, . taken fresh from a meadow upon my farm, lost or water in drying, a little more than fourteen %unces. A far mer drawing from his meadow a cord of peat weighing 4,000 pounds has upon his wagon 3,500 pounds of water, and but 500 pounds of the dry material he seeks. This, dried and compress ed, could be placed in a couple. of our largest sized farm baskets." This concentration would add large .ly to'the value of peat as an absorbent of watery stable dropping. By drying peat, decaying forest leaves or straw, after repeated saturations with cattle - urine, the fertilising salts contained therein would 'oe higly concentrated. The water in stable manure is not worth hauling and spreading on our fields, and it should be evaporated. Use well dried peat, leaves or straw for absorbing urine or other liquid manure. Then dry out the water and use the same bedding repeatedly till filled with agricultural salts, which are worth as much pound for pound, as Peruvian guano. Why should this imported muan*ure sell freely at seven ty-five dollars per ton, while the far mers' home-made stuff will not bring one-twentieth as much?i The owners and cultivators of the soil have been manufacturing plant food for home use for indefinite centuries without any sensible progress or improvement in the business. In a report made to the Legislature of New York in 1843,1 called pubic attention to the prodigious loss of honest farm labor, literally thrown away by its misapplication. Many thought that my remarks were unjust. But now, after the lapse of over a quarter of a century, a high Massachusetts authority tells us that in one hundred parts of common farm manure, in that educated and wealthy -State, there are ninety of water and worthless saud: - Ho'mE READING.-One of the most pleasant and noblest duties of the head of the family is to furnish its members with good reading. Let good reading go into a home, and the very atmosphere of that home gradually but surely changes. The boys begin to grow ambitious, to talk about men, places, books, the nast and the future. The girls begin to feel a new life opening before them in know] edge, duty and love. They see new fields of usefulness and pleasure; and so the family changes, and out of its number will grow intelligent men and women'to fill honorable places, and be useful members of society. Let the toreh of intelligence be lit in every household. Let the old and young vie wit.h each other in' introducing new and useful topics of investigation, and in cherishing a love of reading, study and improvement. How TO Do DoGs-If you have a good dog that kills or runs sheep, and don't want to shoot him, build a pen 16 feet square and run a pole across the top, and then pick the largest arid oldest buck of the flock, put him in the pen, get your dog with a collar around his neck, and rope to draw up over the middle of the pole, so that the dogiwill have his fore-feet swing ing off of the ground a .few inches. Get out of the pen, and let the~ buck give him several good butts and then turn. him loose. This is a sure cure. I tried it on my father's dog when I was a boy; never knew them to even cross a field'where the sheep were grazing. [Rural Sun. The wool crop of Iowa is larger than ever before, for the farmers have dis covered that sheep are much more profitable than grain or cattle. Set it down as a fact that hay, corn, oats, and fodder of all kinds are worth 50 per cent. more if fed out on the Paints. Read!Read!! ead!!

One Gallon Covers Twenty Square Yards Two Coats. :0: THE PLAINS, FAuqui-a Co.; Vi., Feb. 6th, 187. Ma. C. P. K5NGHT-SIa: The Paint came safely to hand as ordered-two kegs, five gallons cach, and three buckets, one gallon each. As practice was slack, I did the jol my.self. Two weeks, (not constant work,) completed the house two coats. The last coal I applied thick, and it is now generally conceded that for enamel-like hardness, and body, and harmony of colors, there is not a handsomer job in the place. I saved sixty-five dol lars by the operation, which is an item just now with Southern people. It should be gen erally adopted in this State. Any country lad can apply it. I have never dabbled ir such stock as Testimonials, but I feel so forcibly the great adaptability of your "Enamel Paint" to the wants of our people, in excellency of material, in beauty of color, and it the fact of its being "ready mixed", that I give you free pertaission, (if it is desirable tc you,) to make what use you think proper of this letter. Very respectfully and truly, S. McGILL, M. D. BALTIOrE, December 10th, 1872. M&. C. P. K%IGHT, EsQ.-DEA&R Sin : It affords nie muchi pleasure to say to you thal the Bradley Patent Enamel Paint far exceeds my expectation in economy and beauty, and I have every reason to believe, in durability. More than twelve months since, . painted the roof of my (Hotel Mansion House) with the Bradley Patent Enamel Paint, and I was so well pleased with it, I determined to paint the outside of the flotel, and - ain most happy to say it gives me perfect satisfaction. Ii conclusion I will say, if this testi monial will be of any advantage to.you, you are at liflerty to use it. Yours most respectfully, ISAAC ALBERTSON, Mansion House Hotel, N. W. Cor. Fayette and St. Paul Streets, Baltimore. To Tnz PUaLIC.-It affords me much pleasure to state that in July, 1871, Front Street Theatre was painted inside and out with "Bradley's Patent Enaiel Paint," for which C. P. Knight, No. 93 West Lombard Street, is agent, at.d t testify to its superior ity over any and all other paints for similar uses. In no private dwelling can paint possi bly be subjected to the very severe test it undergoes at this establishment. where, during our daily cleaning, soap and soda are constantly applied to it, and yet it appears as sound and fresh as when first put on. Of the numerous advantages it possesses over other paints, I will only mention its being mixed and ready for use in quantities to suit pur chasers; its quickly drying properties, which saves much time in the execution of work where paint is needed, and its very perceptible tenacity, which imparts beauty and dura bility to the objects on which it is used. As such I most earnestly recommend it to the merchants and tradesmen of our city, believing it will give them greater satisfaction than they can possibly anticipate. WNf. E. SINN, Baltimore, April 25, 1872. Front Street Theatre. CIIAMnrRUsnURG, December 10th 1872. Ma. C. P.

KNIGHT, EsQ.- Agent for Bradley's Patent Enanel Paint, B.dtimore-DEAR SIR: The paint which I purchased from you has given entire satisfaction, so much so that all my neighbors intend to follow my example, and have their houses painted. It is not on ly durable and cheap, but it looks better after it is put on than any paint I ever saw. The painter I have employed is delighted with it. le says that lie can paint twice as fast, and at the same time do a better job, with the Enamel paint, tha7 any other paint he ever used. I can therefore withouthesitation recommend it to the public as one of the very best articles of paint ever introduced. Youre, very truly, JAMES IIALL. BE.L A In, MAUYArtJ), March 4th 1872. Ma. C. P.

Mr. John J. Street, who lives inear Clermont Mills, to whom I furnished the Bradley Paint last fall, is much pleased with it, and gives permission to use his name in recommending so good a paint. S. B. Montague, painter, agrees with me as to thme durability of your most excel lent paint. I hope parties who have painting to do will look to their advantage and apply Bradley's Patent Enamel Paint, which is the most durable paint now in use. It holds its gloss longer than any other paint that I have ever usid. Yours, truly, E. C..GA RRETTSON, House and Sign Painter. C. P.
