That in aH parts Of the State j we have lands adapted to the produc- ! ?ng of food for stock the year round, j We have our winter pasturage, rye j Mid;-oaricy,, which in our or^imry ! winters grow so rapidly and steadily j that they furnish green food for cattle, from 15th November to loth April.

Crab and Bermuda grass make a most ex? cellent hay far winter, the latter the j more nutritious ; and pea vines, when j well cured, arc superior to both, but | more difiicultto be cured.

I found no relief till on our march we came to a country store, where, on asking for some remedy, I was urged to tryATEB's CHERRI PECTORAL.
