FARM AND GARDEN. THE Possint YIELD OF CoRtN.-If corn be planted in drills three and one half feet apart, and four kernels in it hill, everCy twenty-elght inches of drill there are 5,333 hills, or 21,332 stalks to the aere. A nine-inch car of Wausha kum corn, thoroughly dried, yielded 2,170 grains' weIght, or thirty-one ene hundredths of a pound of shelled grain, If each stalk should average but one such car, tile larvest would be 7,613 pounds, or one hundred and thirty-six bushels per acre. It would requirE but an average of about one-half of grain per stalk to furnish a two-Indred bushel crop. Experlientally in tho garden, we have secured over forty ounces, or two aid one-half polunds Srou a single kernel planted, so there is no end to the possibilities of the cro. in practice, however, we have never realized over one hundred and twoty threu bushels per acre; while an aver age Crop on large areas has not exceed ed seventy or eighty bnsheils. The first effort to improve corn now, starting with satisfactor.y kernels and 0ars, Is to eliminate the barreness of stalks, So that each and every stalk shall perf'orm its dut-y. There is no trollble iII secui lig a targe percoitage of fruitful stalkr, or even a siall ereentage ofL twin or tripie-eared stalks; but, when we hope to sectu1 0 all stch, then we find the til(llenlty. Seed-corn must be bred, and okillfiuli1 bred, toward fritit.fulness, be fore we can antielpate very strin riig re BoNm Des-r.-14ion1e 'dust, like barn yard maiure, does not 1 Imlledlately yield up its nitrogen aid phosphorio acid to plants.

The gelatine of the boiies Would soon decomUpose iI a 11mioinSt., por ou0s, warm ill soil, provided It was not protected by the soil andthe hard mat ter of the bones. .,teansing removes the oil, and reducing tihe bones to a1s ilne a condition as possible is another inslilil of ilcreasing their availability. Another good miethoi Is to mix the one dust. wIth barnyard 1mantire and let both ferment together, and I aml Inclined to think Muis Is Lie best, sin plest, and most econuomica *-etilod of rendering bones available. The bone dust cauises tihe heap of ianure to ier ment more rapidly, and the fermenta tion of the mitir softens the bones. Both the Inau1lre and tie bones are inn proved ai(] reidered rleier and inore uvailable by the process.

A GRATEFUL RECOGNITION. "To cure a OUnONIG or LONG oTANSING DISNAUW Is truly a victory in the healing art; that reason ing power that clearly discerns DBFEr and sup. piles a remedy, Ihat restores step by step-by degrees-the body which has been slowly at tacked and wealened by an insidious disease, not only commands our respect but deserves our gratitude. Dr. Radway has furnished man kind wilh that wonderful remedy, Radway's Marsmptsrillian Resolvent. which accom plishes this result, and suffering humanity, who drag out an existence of pain and disease. through ion days and long nights, owe him their gratitude. "-,sti ca I Ressr~. FALSE AND TRUE. We extract from Dr. Radway's "Treatise on disease and Its Oure," as follows: List of Diseases cured by Radway's Sarsaparliian Resoirent. Chronic Skin Diseases, Carles of the Bone, Humors in the Blood, Scrofulous Dise tses. Baa or unnatural Habit of Body, Syphills and Vene real, Fever Sores. Chronic or Old Ulcers, galt Iheum, Rickets, White Swelling, seal i Head. Uterine Affections, Cankers Glandular Swell ings, Nodes, Wasting and 15eony of the Hody, I imples and Blotches. Tumors, Dyspepsia. Kid nOy and Bladder Diseases Ohronic Rh umatism and Gou, Consumption, bravel and Calculous Deposits, nai varieties of the above comnplaints to wichl sometimes are given specious iames. We assert that there is no kncwn remedy that possesses the curative power over these dis eases that RADWAY's REsoLVENT furnishes. It cures, step by stop. surely. from the founda tion, and restores the Injured part% to their sound condition. The wnsten of the body are stopped and healthy blood is sup plied to the systean, from which new ma terial is formed. This is the fiast corrective pnwer of RADwAY's RKSoLVBN. In Cases where' rno system has been salivated and Mercury, Quicksilver, Corrosive Sublimate have accunmu lated and become deposited in the bonos, joints eto., causing caries or the bones, rickeis. sina[ curvatures, contortions, white swellings, vari cose veins. etc., the SARSAPARILLIAN will resolve away those deposits anti exterminate the virus of the disease from the system. If those who are taking these meditneid for the cure of Chronic. Scrofulous or Syphilitic dis eases, however slow may b: the cure. "teel bet tor," and find their general health Improving, their flosh and weight increasing, or even keep ing its own is a sure sign thatthe oure is pro gressing. In these diseases the patient either gets better or worse--the virus of the disease V not inactive; if not arrested and driven from the blood it will spread and continue to under mine the constitution. As soon as the SARsA PAniLIJAN makesq the patlent ,feel be' ter," every hour you will grow better and increase in health,. itrength and -nesh. OVARIAN TUMORS.
