1; AGRI00&MUBE, TaBrLa FoWp.-It is an admitted fact that the majority of the American peo- Y ple indulge too freely in pork as a meat Y food. And it is equally true that the q major number of farmers and market P poulterers are very indifferent as to the a quality of poultry flesh they send to n market. One class of our poor people t see nothing tempting in the poultry line' o to /induce them to become lovers of u chicken flesh, and the others do not 0 endeavor to produce a fowl that will be 0 universally considered excellent for the it table. O If we take any of the fancy bred va- e rieties of poultry there is hardly one ex- 0 cept the game, which is what may be b considered a first class table-fowl. The o Dorking, though having a national re pul ttion, is almost tabooed fhom the w poulterer's yard on account of being i tender and difficult to rear in this coun- Y try. The Asiatic, as now bred, carries He enormous quantities of feathers, while 0 their breasts are almost devoid of flesh, y and present little more than a heap of t bones when, placed on the table, while u their skins are terribly coarse. a The Plymouth Rook has been bred in y the past few years above the natural a size. This alone, if no other,would de- ti tract from the quality of its flesh. The sI Houdan is fast being ohanged by those til who breed them for exhibition, into an ornamental towl. The Orevecour is Z also becoming a bird of plumage,and is i, difficult to raise. The Spanish will n never answer for a table fowl, as they a are utterly useless for the rough wear k and tear of the farmyard. The Ham- u burgs, Leghorns and Polish are too small for the food market, tad do not g take on fat kindly. Farmers could not 14 be induced to breed them but for their e eggs only. We are therefore compelled b to arrive at the conclusion that among e the many varieties of poultry we have a not yet succeeded in breeding one l which may be considered a prime table h fowl, sl THE UuLTURE OF W HEAT. - some 0 twelve to fifteen years ago an impression s prevailed-Indeed the results seemed to t1 establish the fact-that wheat culture in t Pennsylvania, like fruit-culture, had run out, and farmers' clubs and agricul- 0 tural papers went full tilt to discussing W the reason of it. But subsequently both 0 took a turn, and we should like to know c1 to-day if any one aares to say that both li wheat and fruit cannot be raised as suc- b cessfully there as in almost any other s State. Some said at first that it would b last only a little while-now and then we say get along well enough, but who can say how long it will last, or in fi case failure should come again what d we are to do abaut it. This was anti- a: cipating an - evil which there was no tl reason to believe would soon occur i again, and as it has not yet returned we r hear no more about it. The grumblers a are quiet; they take with thanks, we e hope, all they receive, and may en- oj tertain the best expectation for the fu- t< ture. ti The greatest enemy of the wheat crop s is too much water. It may be said that P the wheat-root is more susceptible to i injury from too much water than many P of us believe. To be sure there is a g general impression that an overdose of li water is bad, but the full forcc ofT the la impression is seldom felt as it deserves ti to be. Water lying around roots does t not always kill the wheat plant, but " many of the roots are injured, and the i faw that oa~ loft ovn nca nhlo +n do the work that all were intended to take ~ part in doing. If .any one will dig up a tI wheat plant in spring which has stood it all witer in a wet place, he will see ex- i aetly how this is. -Only livig roots close to the surface and below this may t be injured, _____ BLAoK TEETH IN Hoos.--Two yearsb ago I had a nice shout. It had black t teeth. I asked some of my noighihors0 what to do for it;them told me to knock them out with a hammer and nail and it r would get well. I dht so and I am sure e I got them all out. The hog k'ept get ting we rde and died. About the time it ~ died I saw a piece in a newsparer about ci black teeth in hogs. It said black teeth were not a disease, but simply an indi cation that the hogs w( re~ not in a heal- 1 thy condition. It gave a recipe, wh'ch a was: One ounce tine guindowder for ii each hog per day; mix well with the food; keep giving till their appearance is for the better. At t he time I lost my I hog I was keeping t,wo hogs over thea winter for a neighbor. Bo>th of his hogs k had black teeth. One of them I took the black teeth out of and the other I did not. I gave the powder for three ~ days and both got well. .Oood food,i clean pen, and room for exorcise is es sential. To KTL DA!SIE,-A heavy crop ofA clover is sure death to (dusics, They tt seem to he smothered by the ranker ej growth of clover, and fail to mature y, their seeds. In a field where there is a r growth of daisies a geneirous use of for- n tihzers, especially of barnyardt manure, o and keeping the field seeded to clover, ~ using an extra quai.tity of seed for this o purpose and breaking uip every two o yearsa, cultivating for a while anid again d seeding to elov&r thickly, will finally i, eradicate the daisies.g .DUILLINo CORN. -Anl English agricul. i turist announces as the result of careful experiment and observation the conclu sion that where corn is drilled from east 0 to west the yied is much larger than it when drilled from north to south, as in b the former ease the sun can shine down p the rows, whereas, in the latter case. se each row makes a kind of wall which ft shadi s the next row. There is so much 5] common sense in this that many will ft wonder why they dId not think of it be- k fore. 0: THEu time to sow buckwheat is the lat est day that will allow the crop to ma- i ture before frost; but we cannot say al when froet will appear, so it Is necessa- ti ry to make some allowatee. A good ii pracitee is to fit the land early,say I l w P before the middle of June, cultivate II well about ten days later,and again just si before sowing the seed, which shionid 0 not be later than the 10th of .July in this laitude. Th'at will provIde for quick germination, and gronithr,if not retardedl will be complete before' the middle of e September. and that is early enough to escape frost in ordinary season. WHEAT ILAN.-Stubble ground in- j i tended for wheat should be ploughed as n soon as possible after the cr01) is re moved. With early plonghing an oat or barley stubble may be made almost tl equal to a summer fallow by the time o the ground Is wanted for whr at seeding. t: There is usually a period of six weeks u between harvest and wheat sowing. In tl that time thistles and quack can be u greatly checked if no spear of either is o allowed above gromd,a DOMETIO.

She wasobliged to use the urinal as many asfifto' n timnes In a night, and was growing worse daily. At this time my attention was called to Ihunt's Remedy, and I concluded to try it; and after using one bottle she was a good deal better, the inflamima ion was reduced,and the water more nat ural.

By heating to 800 degrees 0., the mercury evaporates and the silver layer is fixed. Iron-ware is first treated with diluted ,. hodrochloiio acid, and then dipped into a solution of nitrate of mercury, being a at the same time in communication with i the zinc pole of an electric battery, a s piece of gas carbon or platinum being used as an anode for the other pole.The metal is soon covered with a layer of quicksilver, is then taken out and wtll ' washed and silvered in a silver solution. To save silver the ware can be first cov e ered with a layer of tin; one part of - cream of tartar is dissolved in eight a parts of boiling water, and one or more tin anodes are joined with the oarbon pole of a Bunsen element. The zinc ! pole communicates with a well-cleaned piece of copper, and the battery is made to act till enough tin has deposited on the copper, when this is taken out and the iron-ware put in its place. Ware thus covered with tin, chemically pure and silvered, is much cheaper than oth er silvered metals. "Now Well and Strong." SIIPMA A, hlinois. Dr. R. V. PIEROE, Buffalo N.

"DIscovery" sold by druggists. Charles Lever, of Manchester, has in vented and patented an electric lamp in which the carbons are held apait by a spring when no current is passing. The current, when first started, excites an olectro-magnet which releases a clip,and allows the upper carbon to fall upon the lower; the weakening of the magnets consequent on shunting the current through the carbons allows the springs to bind the clip, and draw back the up per carbon to the proper distance. When the carbovs burn away so as to increase the resistance greatly, this process is repeated. Sivk-loadnoho. MTins. J. C.
