We UMWilu r au iBcefcfa is point, ami
will n-Iato it by way of illustration.
A fanner having purchased a cow from
a country abounding in the ricbenl pastur
age, upon taking her t' Kit- inferior pa-tun-!,
found that she Wl short in the jrleW which
he whk informed sh was accustomed to
give. He complained to the gentleman of
whom he had purchased, that the mow
was not tin- one he bargained for ; or in
other words he was not whut she was
"cracked up to be."
"Why," said the seller, "I Mold you my
Cow, hut I did not Hell you my pasture."
And the ahove remind f a reply which
a shrewed old farmer whom we knew many
yeurs ago, made to one of hi neighbors.
The latter had obtained MMM pigs from a
tnan residing several wile off, and who, be
cause intelligent, particularly surpassed his
neighbor in raising. Shortly after, meet
ing the old gentleman referred to, he says:
"Well, Mr. Sweeti-ir, I'm going to beat
you raising hogs this your; I've got some
of J. M's breed."
"Ah-ah," brawled out the old man, you
bad better get the breed of his hog trough !"

HORSES.
Those who have the care of horses are
frequently very neglectful in the manner of
discharging their duty. There is no animal
In existence m susceptible to the effects of
dirt, impure air. had bedding, ice, as the
horse. All excrements in a horse's stable,
however small in quantity, should be remov
ed at least once a day, and a clean, dry place
left for the animal to stand, or lie down up
on. Many a horse when stabled for tui
hour's feeding, is placed in a close, filthy
place, without a breath of pure air there
obliged to make his meal. We would al
most as soon think of eating in sach a place
ourselves, as of compelling a horse to d it.
If you bare no windows in our stables,
by all-means make one ut once, or knock
off a board, to let in light and pure air.
When you have removed the droppings
from the stables at night, strew the floor
with dry strnw or muck ; the value of the
manure will more than repay the expense
besides rendering your horse heulthier.
REMEDY FOR HORSE DISTEMPER.
Thomas W. Ladd, of Smithri, Id, Jeffer
son Co., Ohio, writes the Ohio Farmer that
he has found a remedy and cure for "dis
temper'' in horses. He says: "Having three
volte siek with this disease, one experienced
told me to uso tar, and he thought that
the sick colts would soon recover, and that
those who had not taken the disease would
not have it at all, or but lightly, I follow
ed his directions to my entire satisfaction.
I gave the colts, morning and evening, as
nuieh as I could readily get in their mouth
with a paddle. After a few applications,
the sick ones commenced running at the
nose, their appetites returned, and in a short
time they had entirely gained what they
had lost from disease. The other Merer
took it to my knowledge.
POLE-EVIL IN HORSES.
For the benefit of those who have or may
hereafter have horses that have pole-evil or
fistula, I would say, don't sell the animal
for a triHe, or give him away; but cure him
sound and well. I care not how long it has
been running, it can be cured with one
dime; yes, one dime's worth of muriatic
acid will cure the worst case of old pole-evil.
First, wash the sore well with strong soap
sups, then drop t ight or ten drops of the
acid in it twice u day, until it has the ap
pearance of a fresh wound ; after which, it
should be washed clean with suds made
from castile soap, and left to heal, which it
will quickly do if the ucid has been used
long enough ; but if it does not get well,
apply to acid again until it does cure, for it
is a sure remedy, and will not fail if it is
applied until the diseased flesh is all burnt
out. Prairie Farmer.
REMEDY AGAINST THE STRIPED
BUO.
As the time is near nt hand when water
melons, cymling, can tempos, dec, should
be planted, you will confer a favor by pub
lishing the following remedy against the
ravages of the bug that so frequently des
troys them : As soon as the vines are at
tacked by them, dust them over a often as
necessary with the eommoa black pepper,
finely palreruted. This may be done when
the dew is on them without injury to the
vines, as I am imforim d by a gentleman Who
bus tried it. May not the peppt r be also
a good remedy against the ravug s of the
fly or bug so destructive to young turnips
and tobacco plants I I intend to try it.
and if it is, may I not claim the premium
offered by the Uritish Government for the
discovery of n sure remedy against the
turuip rly. Southern Farmer.
How TO OCT KD Or C.V TEKrilXAnR.
The following is said to be a sure process
to get rid of caterpillars. With a emmou
gimlet we bon d a hole into tho body of a
tree, some too hashes deep, perhaps, which
wo filled with sulphur, and then plugged up
the hole. In u short time, say forty -eight
hours they were-crawliug about the yard,
ami in less than six days not one was to be
found remaining ou the tree. This is a
simple but sure way.
To Pkevknt the Seed ekom beix;
DurritOTEP bv Hens. The pig, with full
be'lv, never roots ; the hen, with u full crop,
will not scratch the ground. Therefore,
when my hens are di -posed to scatch I
tall them up to the barn, and give them as
moeh com r- they wiM cat, for which they
always sing to me a merry tune, and lay
a whale hat full of eggs. .

How to Kxkf Worms OCT of Drieo
KlM'lT. Have a pot full of scalding water
over the fire, then put the fruit into sacks
of a suitable size, and dip them into the
boiling water, which will kill the worm or
what causes it. After .-:, Ming, spread the
fruit out to dry the scalding does the fruit
no injury. Whatever it is that causes the
worm, is deposited on the fruit during the
process of drying.
To Prevent Crows kkom PriXjxo j
Corn. I scatter corn in the field broad
cast, which they feed upon and leave the
seed. If I have too much company by my
liberality, I soak the corn in strichnia and
hot water. Last spring, after scattering
half a bushel of corn snaked in this way,
I picked up forty-two (b ad crows, and how
many went off feeling "kind o' sick,' I am
not able to state.
Wire and grub worms are more difficult
customers to deal with for any poison used
for their destruction is alway absorbed by
the soil, which is a sure protection to tin m.
I have never found a sure remedy for these
pests ; and can only secure my seed by
planting enough for their wants and mine
too, and if they get more than their
share, I plant new hills a few inches
from the old ones thus destroyed, and "thin
out" at second hoeing. M. J. P., Cream

IHE undersigned has established an agency

Land VVarrants, the purchase and sale ol lands
generally, improved and unimproved. The
fact now being established that a Rail Road
is to be constructed immediately connecting
the Atlantis and Gulf of Mexico, running
through the entire length of the county, East
and West, anc in view of the great fertility
of our soil, the unusually fine growth of pine
timber on the land, the healthfulness of the
climate, and the reasonable terms on which
lands can now be obtained, there is perhaps
no section of the Union which affords eouai
inducements to the emigrant from the older
States. Having had some experience in farm
ing on the different kinds ot land, and ac
quired a general knowledge of them through
out the county, and having acquired unusual
facilities for pointing out such as are for sale
either of public or private lands, he feels
very confident of making it the interest of
all persons wishing inforrr ation. or who may
have deter mined to settle in Florida to call

FOR YOUR
Discovery
PROFESSOR WOOD'S HAIR RESTORA
TIVE, is, no doubt, the most wonderful
discovery of this aire of progress, tor it will restore,
permanently, gray hair to ns original color, cover
the head ot the bald with a most luxuriant growth,
remove at once all dandruff and itching, cure all
scorfula and other cutaneous eruptions, such as
schaldhead, etc. It will cure, as if by magic, ner
vous or periodical headache; make the hair soft,
glossy and wavy, and preserve the color perfectly,
and ilie hair from falling, to extreme old at'e.
We could give the testimony of more than one
hundred thousand to the truth of every word we
have written. See circular and the lol lowing :

St. Paul, January I, 1855.
Professor O. J. Wood
Dear Sir : Unsolicited, I send yon this rertifieate.
Alter being nearly bald for a long tune, and hav
ing tried all the hair restoratives extant, and hav
ing no faith in any, I was induced, on bearing ot
yours, to give it a trial. I placed myself in the hands
of a barber, and had my head lu.'.bi d with a gond
stiff brush, and the restorative then applied, and
well rubbed in, till the scalp was a glow. This I
rejieated every moi niti;.', and in three weeks the
youna l air appea.cd, and grew rapidly from August
last till the present time, and is now thick, black,
and strong solt and pleasant to the touch; where
as, before, it was harsh and wiry, what little there
was of it, and that little was disappearing very
rapidly. I still use your restorative about twice a
week, and shall soon have a good and perfect crop
of hair. Now, il 1 had read ol these things and
who has not? but have not seen hitherto any case
where any person's hair was really benefited by
any of the hair tonics, etc., of the day; and it really
gives me pleasure to record the result of my exper.
ience. 1 have recommended your preparation to
others, and it already has a lare and general sale
throughout the Territory. The people here know
i's etlects, and have confidence in it. The supply
you sent us, as wholesale agents tor the Territory,
is nearly exhausted, and daily inquiries are made
for it. You deserve credit lor vour discovery ; and
I, for one, return you my thanks for the benefit it
has done me, for I certainly had despaired long
ago ot evei effecting any such result.
Yours, hastily, J. W. BOND.

DearSir: Having made trial of your HAIR
RESTORATIVE, it gives nie pleasure to say,
hat its effect has been excellent iu removing in
flammation, dandruff, and a constant tendency to
itching, with which I have been troubled Irom ny
childhood; and has also restored my hair, which
was becoming gray, to its original color. 1 have
used no other article, with anything like the same
pleasure and profit.
Yours, truly, J. K. BRAGG.
