No successful general undertakes a march or gives battle to an ene my without a definite plan. - No navigator attempts to cross the trackless ocean except with chart and compass, lead and instruments in perfect accord. No manufacturer can compete in the world's markets except his factory is methodically arranged. No business man can avoid confusion and disaster who ignores method in his accounts. Practical farming is no exception to this unvarying law. Method. is indispensable to successful agri culture. Admitting such to be the fact, on general principles, yet how few farmers adhere to its teachings, how many are blown hither and yon by freak or fancy, ignorance or prejudice - aimless, shiftless creatures of circumstance. A me thodical use of limited resources is more effective than the prodigal waste of grand opportunities. The producer who has his business well in band, wh knows his acres and their needs, his animals and their capacity, his hired men and their possibilities, his crops and their possible results, is inl a positionl to * secure all the advantages of the situation. On the other hand, the farmer who is devoid of system, who has rno regularly-defined plan of action, who makes no calculation of the forces at his command, nor of the work due from them, is at the mercy of every contending ele ment. Like the driver seated be hind a pair of furious, runaway steeds, beyond his control, who is not. certain whether his ride will end in speedy arrival at his pro posed destination, or in a smash up by the roadside. Method gives power to feeble resource. Method economizes time and space. Method develops the shortest way to accom plish many things by doing one thing at a time. Metho.d has its tools and instruments in thorough repair and ready for immediate ac tion. Method has its forces well in hand, to provide against sudden emergency. Method supplies em ployment for rainy days or pleasant weather. Method secures results unknown to a shiftless purpose. Method draws the line between sdeccess and failure. Method in duces thrift and independence. Method determines the branch of agriculture that offers the best re ward to persistent effort. Without method the vacancy is soon filled with failure and disapp>)intment. [American Cultivator. A writer says that he has beer] very successful in conquering gapes in chickens by the application of air-slaked lime. As soon as a manifestation of gapes appears he confines his chickens in a box, one at a time, sufficiently large to contain the bird, and places a coarse piece of cotton or linen cloth over the top. Upon the top of this he places the pul verized lime, and taps the screen sufficiently to cause the lime to fall through. This lime dust the fowl inhales, causing it to sneeze, and in a short time the cause of the gapes is thrown out in the form of a slimy mass or masses of worms, which had accumulated in the wind pipe and smaller air vessels. B>LUE GRAsS AND TDIoTHY. A writer on blue grass says: "Pre pare the ground late in the pre vious autumn, so that it may have a mellow, fresh surface in the spring, and very early sow timothy, clover and blue grass at the same time. A bout two crops of clover PTAToEs.-A Correspondent writes to a,k which are the best and most profitable potatoes to plant. We give below the names and qualities of several excellent varieties :-The snowflake is con sidered one of the best table pota toes, but is not very prolific. Compton's surprise claims to excel all others for prodjctiveness. It is oval-oblong in shape and of large size, with smooth skin and sunken eyes. Its reddish purple color makes it unattractive, but the flesh is white and the potato re tains its quality perfectly through out the year. The centennial was produced by fertilizing the blos soms of the Brownell's beauty, with pollen from the white peach blow. The potatoes cluster around the base of the stalk and are easy to dig, remarkably uniform in size and never rough or prongy. The eyes are few and small and the color deep red; season second early or medium. Its flesh is white and of exceedingly fine grain ; its lightness when boiled or baked is seldom equalled by any other potato. It is very iroductive. The snperior is a new seedling potato of enormous yield; 673 pounds being grown from one pound of seed, during a season of great drought, when many older varieties did not yield enough, to pay for digging. Its tubers are medium to large, of a dark copper color and handsome in appearance; skin fine and smooth, eyes few and small. It ripens medium late; keeps well and retains its meali ness and excellent table qualities through the entire season, It has no fault that has yet been die covered, and E. S. Brownell, the originator, considers it the hand somest potato he ever saw. The seek-no-farther is a seedling from the Eureka, is dry, of a fine grain and very prolific, but grows so prongy and produces so many small ones that it is undesiral. The peachblow is extensively grown for market and is a favorite shipping variety. iTubers rather large, round; eyes sunken, skin pinkish red. Very prodluctive and has withstood disease better than many other sorts. Thbe early Ver mont has proved from seven to ten days earlier than the early rose; it is more productive and fully equal in quality to that va riots. WVEANING LAMBS.-Never de pend upon the mother to wean the lamb; it will not hurt the lamb, but will keep the mother poor, and she will either fail to have a lamb the coming season, or, if she has one, it will be so weak that there will be great risk run in wintering her. The better plan is to wean the lamb when about three months of age. and if any are small then give extra attention ire the fall and winter. If lambs are weaned on the same range they have been in the habit of grazing over with thbeir mothers they will be more contented, and, by putting.in a few dry ewes, will soon learn to herd and can be managed with ease. Keep lambs separate from the old sheep at night and make a temporary divi sion in their corrals, to prevent crowding and piling, the chief cause of the lo'ss of lambs in cold weather. THE PROFIT OF POULTa.-A correspondent of' the C'ountry Gen tlean gives the following as the debit and credit account of a flock of 75 hens and 15 cocks: 1,207 eggs for setting.............. 18 33 Expense of keeping................ 191 64 15 Brown Leghorns at, S1...........15 00 15 Light Brahmas, at S1............5 00 60 half-breeds, at 75 cents........... 4500 Total cost....... ............S284 97 6,788 eggs..................... $150 23 Poultry sold........ ....... ....... 148 41 50 Light Brahmas, at S1........... 50 00 50 Brown Leghorns, at S1...........50 00 0 j-bred fowls, at 75 cents... .....60 00 Total.................. . ...458 64 Less cost,.................. 284 97 Total profit................ $173 67 A ROAsTED FILLET OF VEAL. The bone should be taken out ; fill the cavity with a dressing made of bread crumbs, pepper and salt and sweet marjoram; a piece of' butter the size of an egg, or a lit tle bit of fat pork chopped very fine, and one egg. Mix this up weoll, skewer the veal tight, to keep the dressing in. It adds to the look and taste of a fillet of veal to lard it with por-k. If this is not done, it should be basted often with butter. A piece weighing eight pounds requires four hours to roast.

Office, 35 Murray Street, Nwor. Mar. 14, 1S77-l1-1y BEER. The Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for the year 1875, speaks as follows: "There can be no doubt of the general adulteration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a system of inspection of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to sale, the practice is very common. How much more in this country, where there are no laws on the subject, and no officer to carefully ana lyze the products of the brewery ? Some years ago, Professor Mapes, of New York, analyzed the beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adulterated with noxious substances. It is said that the sale of drugs to brewers is a profitable part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous. Coccuus indicas, (fish-berry,) nux vomica, (dog-button, from which strychnine is ob tained,) are some of the delectable substances found in beer! These are potent poisons, and the brewer found using them should be drowned at once in one of his own vats. The British Parliament passed a law to pre vent this nefarious business. The following is an extract: 'No druggist, vender of or dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person, shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of, or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer or retailer, any liquor called by the name of or sold for coloring, from whatever material the same may be made; or any material or preparation other than unground brown malt, for the darken ing the color of worts beer, or any molasses, vitriol, honey, quassia, coccolus indicus, grains of paradise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or preparation of molasses, or any article or preparation to be used in worts beer for or as a substitute for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall offend in any of these particulars, such preparation, &c., shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer of excise, and the person so offending shall for feit five hundred pounds.' "Under this law, very many druggists and brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice continues. Unless the American public are ready to admit the immaculate purity and innocence of American brewers, they must be content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they are at the same time guzzling some narcotic poison or damaging medicine. In view of the unpre cedented growth of the barley crop; of the great increase of the number of malsters and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent, it is the dictate of sound wisdom that the attention of legis lators should be called to the subject of the adulteration of our malt liquors, and severe penalties should be inflicted as a preventive." JOHN C. SEEGERS' BEER is pure and reliable. Feb. 28, 9-tf. NOTICE. The copartnership heretofore existing between W. G. MAYES and J.

Revised by G. B. WOOD, X. D., assisted by . H. C. WOOD, I. D. ROYAL 8vo. SHEEP. $10.00. EXTRACT FROM PREFACE TO THE FOUR TEENTII EDITION. "The last edition of the United States Dis pensatory was published in 1870. Since that time not only has the growth of pharmaco logical science been very great, but there has also been promulgated a new edition of the United States Pharmaeopcia and a sup plement to the British Standard. The addi tions and alterations which have thus been necessitated in the first and second por tions of the present volume are numerous and important. * * * * * ' "The advance of our knowledge of extra. oflicinal drugs has been even more exten sive, requiring the addition to the third part of the Dispensatory of accounts of no less than ninety-eight new substances, and, as in the cases of Propylamia, Nitrite of Amyl, etc., a complete re-writing of many of the old articles. The additions of course vary in importance, butsnany of them are be lieved to be of decided value. "No care or labor has been spared to ren der the present edition equal in accuracy and in completeness to its predecessors. Great pains have been taken to omit super fluous matter and to condense the text; but the additions have been so numerous that the work has been augmented by about seventy pages. This increase is of course to be deprecated ; but without it one of the chief values of the book would have been impaired, andl it has seemed better to have a fewv pages tac-re of print than not to have a complete representation of the pharma cological science of the day." a- For sale by Booksellers generally, or will be sent, transportation free, upon re ceip B. pLcPPCOTT & CO., Publishers, 715 and 717 Market Strecet, Philadelphia.

This Sarsaparillais a combination of vegetable alteratives--Stillingia,Man drake,Yellow Dock-withthelIodides of Potassium and Iron, and is the most efficacious medicine yet known for the diseases it is intended to cure. Its ingrredients are so skilfully combined that the full alterative effect of each is assured, and while it is so mild as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to purge out from the system those impurities and corruptions which develop into loathsome disease. The reputation it enjoys is derived from its cures, and te confidence which prominent physcasall over the country repose m it proves therx experience of its usefulness. Certificates attesting its virtues have accumulated, and are con stantly being received, and as. many of these cases are publicly known, they furnish.convincimg evidence of the superiority of this Sarsaparilla over every other alterative medicine. So generally is its superiority to any other medicine known that we need do no more than to assure the public that the best qualities it,.has ever possessed are strictly maintained.
