SCRATCHES IN Housewife Coun.
try Gentleman says of this troublesome
affection:
"This well known disease. a sort of
cutaneous affection, ending in cracks and
sores between the hinder posten Joints
and hoofs, is sometimes quite trouble
some, and often difficult to cure. Sew
eral remedies are in common use, among
which are, first, shearing off closely The
hair. washing well in soap suds and then
rubbing of the scurf or scabs with a
corn-cob and applying thin coating Of
hogs lard. Another way is to wash
with saltpetre after the soap snds wash
ing has become dry, and after the salt
petre has become dry to apply a slight
coat OF turpentine with feathe. or quill.
All these remedies are quite similar in
character, and are all useful, but we have
never found anything equal to solution
OF chloride of lime, applied after the
first washing. and after the removal of
the scabs when necessary. We have
never seen this remedy recommended,
but it is certainly eminently cleansing in
It's operation.

From the Iowa Farmer.
Planting Forest Trees.

Why do not people living on our prai.
ries plant more forest trees! Can any
better use be made of a portion Of prai.
RE farm, than to plant black walnuts,
hickorys, &C., that will protect the dwell
ling, stables, stack. yard and orchards,
from the wintry blasts and in short time
become valuable for timber!
We passed the residence of a Mr..
Lopez, in the north part Of this county,
a few days ago, and noticed long line
OF black walnut trees, averaging about
twenty five feet in height and about ten
or twelve inches in diameter. The trees
grew from seed planted less than ten
years ago, and would have been still
greater growth if the ground had been
properly cultivated around them. These
trees protect the house from the north
and north winds-they add cheer
fulness and atuacliveness TO the place,
and they greatly increase the value of
The farm. II will not be ten years before
they will DO adapted TO building pur
poses and cabinet work.
Walnuts will grow anywhere upon The
prairies--they strike their roots deep in.
to the ground and hence DO no, interfere
with its cultivation and they make most
valuable timber. They are ornamental
as well as useful. There is farm near
Galesburg, H., of which al least twenty
acres are planted in walnuts, about len
feet apart each way. They look as
though they were transplanted from the
woods, and do not grow straight and
thrifty like Mr.. Loper's. They should
be grown from seed, or else they should
be treated like chestnuts, and the tap.
roots cut off after The first year, and one
yer before ransplanting.
Now is the time TO procure the seed
from the forests. They are as easily
raised as peach trees. and are vastly
more ornamental and more valuable than
peach trees are in this climate.
A few trees are necessary in every
field. There is no field about a farm
that will not frequently be laid down to
rest in timothy or clover. This will be
consequent upon adopting the rotation of
crop system, and this system must soon
er or later be adopted by all. Cattle will
be turned upon these fields 10 eat up the
aftergrowlh, and trees are necessary TO
protect them in the heat of the day from
the sun and from insects.
And then how they relieve the eye and
beutify the farm. Friends, cut down
the cotton weeds, and do plant few wal
nut seeds this fall.

HOBENsACK,s WORM SYRUP

HOBENSACK'S WORM SYRUP
An article founded upon Scientific Pfinci-
Piles, compounded with purely vegetable
substances, being perfectly safe when TAX
en-, and has NEVER been known to fail i'm
curing the most obstinate case. WORMS
can never exist when this remedy is once
used, from the fact that it not only des-
tloys them but removes all the slime and
mucus which may remain.
The Tape Worm.
This worm is the most difficult one to
destroy of all that inhabit the human body.
1t grows to an almost indefinite length.
and becoming so coiled and fastened in
the intestines and stomach as to produce
Fits, st. Vitus' Dance, &C., which is the
cause OF many going to the grave, not be-
lieving that these complaints have their
origin from the tape worm; consequently
they do not use the proper medicines for
their disease. To those who are afflicted
with this awful foe to health, | recommend
the use of my Worm Syrup, and Liver
Pills; the syrup to be taken in doses of two
tablespoons full three times a day, then
take from five to eight of my Liver Pills,
to dislodge and pass the worm. By strictly
following these directions, the most OBJ
stinate cases of Tape Worm can be speed
lily cured.
Round or Stomach Worm.
This worm is usually found in the small
intestines, and is the worm most common
to children, yet it is not entirely confined
to them, as adults have frequently been
known TO suffer with them. The symp-
toms most prominent while affected with
this worm, are hardness and fullness of the
belly, Shiny stools, looseness of the bowels,
picking at The nose, blueish streak under
the eyes, &c. If you, or any of your chill
dren have any of the above symptoms,
HOBENSACk'S WORM SYRUP can be
safely depended upon-by using it you
have certain, safe, and speedy cure; and il
after using it according to the directions
the patient is not restored to health, ant
the worms thoroughly eradicated from the
system, you can rest assured there is no,
remedy beyond the grave, as for fail, there
is no such word as fail with those who use
my WoGM SYRUP.
