IVKEDB, v
While the world lasts weeds will
grow. The German town Telegraph lias
this to say about the destruction of these
übiqiiitious foes of the farmer: Every
onco in a wbile we read that the way to
destroy noxious weeds is to haul loads
of earth and cover the places where the
weeds grow a hrftf a foot or so deep.
Sometimes these instructions are varied
s» as to read rubbish instead of earth
and then again rubbish is defined as
stiaw, cornstalk*, or even brush. Now
we have no doubt in the world that- the
weeds can be destroyed in that way.
We know that weeds feed on air and
all that sort of thing, and that if they
are smothered they can't breathe, ami if
they cannot breathe they die. AH this
is so plain to the thickest skull that one
may feel perfectly safe in recommending
it as something that will surely do. And
yet we would like to know how many
who recommend it have ever done so,
or seen their plan tried by others. , We
very much doubt whether it was ever
done. Some one may have noticed that
tinder a brush-heap everything kill
ed, and that after remaining a year thb
brush-heap's removal would show the
spot by re of all vegetation. If the recom
mendation ever had any gsp nd at all it
was surely this.
Oux nmedj for noxious weeds is thor
ough cultivation If a piece of ground 
is fall of briers, milkweed, couoh-graM, j
Sodom apples, Canada thistles, sorrel, I
toad flax, or other miserable stuff that so !
often tries the mettle of oar good far* I
men, let them put the ground in corn I
for a couple of years or so, keeping the !
cultivation going continually, and eepe*-
cially going in the earliest parts of the
season, and pM among
these weeds will (ail to stand the ordeal.
If the hand hoe can be spared to go in
among the hills of corn occasionally,
where the teeth.of. the harrow cannot
reach, or to eutonhere and there one
which the harrow mar miss, a bad case
may be cured in a single season. But,
IT this cannot be done, a couple of suc
cessive years with a sharp tooth cultiva*
tor among a oorn orop wilt generally do
the business for the Worst case that eve*
Was.
Let any one who has a woody field
before Kim resolve, another season, to
pat the whole tr&ot in oern and keep
clean, and he will soon give up all the
common ideas of smothering out with
deep layers of earth, cutting np in the
fall of the moon, patting salt upon their
tops, or the many other recommenda
tions started in the interest, it is belieV*
ed, of latiness, bat whieh really calls for
more trouble and hard work than a
thorough and syiteqtatie, cleaning, such;
sa we have indicated does. -aV J

The beat time for outting clover is
when about two thirds of the blossom*
have become brown, bat the grass should
be perfeotly dry when cat and put iqto'

weather looks favorable might be left to

toward evening, befium the .dew begins

THE GENUINE
DR. C. KcLANE'S
CELEBRATED
LIVER FILLS,
FOR TH£ CURE OF
Hepatitis, or Liver Complaint*
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
PAIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increases on pres
sure; sometimes the pain is in the left
side; the patient is rarely able to lie
on the left side; sometimes the pain is
felt under the shoulder blade, and it
frequently extends to the top of the
shoulder, and is sometimes mistaken
for rheumatism in the arm. The
stomach is affected with loss of appe«
tite and sickness; 'the bowels in gen
eral are costive, sometimes alternative
with lax; the head is troubled with
pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the back part There is
generally a considerable loss of mem
ory, accompanied with a painful sen
sation of having left undone some
thing which ought to have been done.
A slight, dry cough 'is sometimes an
attendant. The patient complains of
weariness and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa
tion of "the skin; his spirits are low;
and although he is satisfied that exer
cise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude,
enough to try it In fact, he distrusts
every remedy. .Several of the above
symptoms attend the diseaffebut cases
have occurred where few oftljera ex
isted, yet examination of the body,
after death, has shown the LIVER to
have been extensively deranged.
