Practical knowledge is only to be acquired by actual experiment, and is the only kind of lany real value. If all soils were exactly alike, hav ing the same exposure and protec tion, subject to the same climate. and the same amount of rainfall, at exactly the same dates, farming would at once rise to the dignity of an exact science. One set of experiments anywhere would be the foundation for all farm operations of the same kind everywhere. The vast body of farmers, so far as con cerned their own avocation, would become mere machines, or even less in the social scale. Brains would be of no value, and the fool of the family would do as well as the genius on the farm. Fortunately, however, the soil is various and must be treated with brains, or it fails to produce. Busi ness men never trust any one until inquiries have been made into his standing and his ability to fulfill his promises. Farmers, however, never think of inquiring into the character of the land they are go ing to trust their seed to. They say to themselves, "That's land, and this is seed ; let's try them to gether." it has been asserted'that fertilizers are all washed down into the subsoil by rains, and are lost-if so, why is the subsoil always poor ? An ex periment, easily made, would settle this question for ever. It is the practice with many to put on too much lime, hoping to create plenty of plant food. But they create too much, and the crop goes to stems and leaves at the expense of the grain. Experiment would teach a valuable lesson here. The ques tio-n of deep or shallow plowing and cultivation is yet a debatable one ; why not experiment-prove that which is good and hold fast to it ? Light and heavy seeding; early and late sowing ; home grown or foreign grown seed ; seed grown north or south of us ; seed gathered when half ripe or when wholly ma tured ; subsoiling, and even whether' it pays to feed starving fields as well as to keep stock always grow ing-are all open questions. Why is this so ? Why have six thousand years of ceaseless tillage taught us nothing ? And are we to go on six thousand years more in the same style ? As every farm is, in a measure, sui generis, so moust every farmer be its genius loci. Don't trust a man till you know him. Don't trust your land till you know it. Experiment, dig, pry, and inquire at every opportunity ; don't quarrel with a family you are not acquainted with, and, above all things, don't bury money in a hole without a bottom.-S. Ruir"s MA sos, in Rural New Yorker. Hoes FATTENED WITHOUT CoRN. -As I have made a most successful experiment in fattening hogs this season, I feel it my duty, as well as my pleasure, to give your readers the benefit of it. Early in April, I planted an acre in my extra early sweet potatoes, expressly to turn my hogs on. I also planted twc acres in chufas for the same pur pose. The chufas I planted in drills two feet apart, and about a foot apart in the drills ; they nearly covered the whole ground. The sweet potatoes were large enough to eat on the first of June, but I let them grow on until the first of August, when the ground was was literally full of them. Ther I turned on them some forty hogs. After they had run or them some six weeks and began tc get full and lazy, I turned them or the chufas. I never saw hogs imu prove so fast. As I had heard old farmers say hogs must have corn tc harden the flesh, I gave themr aou ei-ht bushels; this is all the than the tenderest turkey. The same land that I had in these sweet potatoes and chufas would not have brought more than twenty bushels of corn in all. I have long con tended that we could not afford to raise" corn on our poor old sandy lands to feed stock, and when I can make such meat on sweet potatoes and chufas, I would not feed on corn f I could make one hundred bush els to the acre.-CHs. A. PEABODY n Fari Journal. A SECRET WORTH KNoWING To Hou-SEKEEPERS.-A sort of trade se cret among upholstercrs. it is said, is this recipe for ridding furniture of moths: A set of furniture that seemed to be alive with the larvm, from the month it came new, and from which hundreds of these pests had been picked and brushed, was set in a room by itself. Three gallons of benzine were purchased at thirty cents a gallon, retail. Using a small watering pot, with a fine rose sprinkler, the whole up holstery was saturated through and through with the benzine. Re sult: Every moth, larve and egg was killed. The benzine dried out in a few hours, and its entire odor disappeared in three or four days. Not the slightest harm happened to the varnish, or wood, or fabrics, or hair stufing. That was months ago, and not a sign of a moth has since apppeared. The carpets were also well sprinkled all round the sides of the room with equally good effect. For furs, flannels, indeed all woolen articles containing moths, benzine is most valuable. Put them in a box, sprinkle with ben zine, close the box tightly, and in a day or two the pests will be ex terminated, and the benzine will all evaporate on opening. In using benzine, great care should be taken that no fire is near by, as the stuff in fluid or vapor form is very in flammable. [Carolina Farmer. A GOOD CoRn Cam.-A gentle man gives the following, which he says is his own contrivance, has been in use for seven years and never heen known to have a rat in it. The crib is,16 feet long, 5 feet wide, 8 feet from the floor to the plate above, 3 bents, sills framed into the posts 18 inches from the ground, short way. A 2 by 7 joist, 16 feet long, set in outside posts ; four-inch scantlings for nail ties half way between; four inch scant lings, 2 by 4, set in lengthwise to sustain the floor. The floor is of inch plank, doubled, laid crosswise, and sawed off even with the outside sleeper, to which the lower ends of sidings are nailed. The door is set in, 18 inches above the floor or 3 feet from the ground. The farmers' clubs continue to discuss whether it is better to feed cattle in open fields, under open shelters, at liberty, or tied up in stalls. We wish there were more farmers' clubs. Fresh air, moderate exercise, abundant and nutritious food, with comfortable shelters to resort to in stormy weather are the conditions which we have found most conducive to the healthy de velopment of domestic animals. The absence of discomfort and irritation of all kinds is essential to the best result. Few animals bear close confinement well, unless habituated to it almost from birth. B.EED FIs.-Take any nice fish, boil it, remove the bones, and chop considerable parsley very fine, with one small onion. Have about as much bread crumbs as fish. Take a pudding dish, and butter it, then lay in a layer of crumbs, and a lay er of fish, ending with the bread crumbs. Mix your parsley and on ion with salt and pepper through your bread crumbs. Put lumps of butter over the top, a very slight grating of nutmeg, and pour over it all sweet cream, or very rich milk, till it rises to the top. Bake in a quick oven till it has a nice, rich brown crust. BEANS FOR CATTLE.--A gentleman who has fed beans largely to sheep' and cattle prefers them to grain. He says there is no remedy for gar gol as effective as beans, and is sat isfied that if dairymen would give their cows an occasional mess of beanmeal they would be troubled less with disease and they would have fewer three-teated cows. LIME FOR THE PoULTav.-Keep air slacked lime constantly on hand where laying hens can get at it. v~t~e~A f 4~rn +l~o ~ Jlscellaneous. THE GENUINE DR.C.IMcLANE'S Celebrated American WORM SPECIFIC OR VERMIFUGE. SYMPTOMS OF WORMS. T HE countenance is pale and lead en-colored, with occasional flushes, or a circumscribed spot on one or both cheeks; the eyes become dull; the pupils dilate; an azure semicircle runs along the lower eye-lid; the nose is irritated, swells, and sometimes bleeds; a swelling of the upper lip; occasional headache, with humming or throbbing of the ears; an unusual secretion of saliva; slimy or furred tongue ; breath very foul, particularly in the morning; appetite variable, sometimes voracious, with a gnawing sensation of the stomach, at others, entirely gone; fleeting pains in the stomach; occasional nausea and vom iting; violent pains throughout the abdomen; bowels irregular, at times costive; stools slimy, not unfrequent ly tinged with blood; belly swollen and hard; urine turbid; respiration occasionally difficult, and accompa nied by hiccough; cough sometimes dry and convulsive; uneasy and dis turbed sleep, with grinding of the teeth; temper variable, but generally irritable, &c. Whenever the above symptoms are found to exist, DR. C. McLANE'S VERMIFUGE will certainly effect a cure. IT DOES NOT CONTAIN MERCURY in any form; it is an innocent prepa ration, not capable of doingthe slightest injury to the most tender infant. The genuine DR. McLANE'S VER MIFUGE bears the signatures of C. McLANE and FLEMING BROS. on the wrapper. -:O: DR. C. McLANE'S LIVER PILLS are not recommended as a remedy "for all the ills that flesh is heir to," but in affections of the liver, and in all Bilious Complaints, Dyspepsia and Sick Head ache, or diseases of that character, they stand without a rival. AGUE AND FEVER. No better cathartic can be used prepar. atory to, or after taking Quinine. As a simple purgative they are un equaled. BEWARE OF IXITATIONS. The genuine idnever sugar coated.

Ayer 's herry Pectoral For Diseases of the Throat and r.ungs, ?such as Coughs, SColds, Whooping Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma, and Con sumptionl. The reputation it has attained, in consequence of the marvellous cures it has produced during the last half cen tury, is a sufficient assurance to the public that it will continue to realize the happiest results that can he desired. In almost every section of country there are persons, publicly known, who have been- restored from alarming and even desperate diseases of the lungs, by its use. All who have tried it ac knowledge its superiority; and where its virtues are known, no one hesitates as to what medicine to employ to re lieve the distress and suffering peculiar to pulmonary affections. CHERRY PEC TOAL always affords instant relief, and performs rapid cures of the milder va rieties of bronchial disorder, as well as the more formidable diseases of the lungs. As a safeguard to children, amid the distressing diseases which beset the Throat and Chest of Childhood, it is invaluable; for, by its timely use, multitudes are rescued and restored to health. This medicine gains friends at every trial, as the cures it is constantly producing are too remarkable to be forgotten. No family should be with out it, and thcem who have once used it never will. Eminent Physicians throughout the country prescribe it, and Clergymen often recommend it from their knowl edge of its effects. PREPARED BY Dr. .
