up again. Repeat this process two
or three times, and then set TIE ket-
tie aside. After fifteen minutes, take
the scum very carefully from the top,
and pour off the syrup so gently as
not to disturb the sediment. Have
the kettle washed, and return the
syrup, and the fruit. Some persons
always strain the syrup through a
flannel bag, but if the above direc-
tons are observed, it is not neces-

wiring it every day in hot water

And Cain talked With Abel his
brother; and IT came 10 pass, W hen

Obj fmnlgr.
Frost as a Manure,


I'VE know Of no treatment SO sdi-
rectly beneficial, for almost every
class Of soils as that Of throwing up.
land "a narrow ridges in the fall or
early winter. There are few soils
worth cuItiyating at all, that do not
contain mere or less materials which
can be made available to plants by
the combined action Of air and
frost.
Take two plots Of heavy soil, side
by side, and let one lie unmoved till
spring, whilo The other is dssrsq
plowed in autumns and the result will
be very visible in the spring crop.
But the manner Of blowing is impor-
tant. To secure the greatest ad van
tase, a single fnrrow should be thtown
up and another back.furrow directly
upon it SO as to produce a high ridge,
then another ridge is to be made in
the same manner with deep head
furrow between the two. The proc
ess is to be continued thus through
the whole Geld, so that when finished
twill present a surface of high ridges
and deep burrows succeeding each
other about once in Two or two and
a half feet. Ifprepared 10 this way,
the frost will penetrate far downward,
loosening and disintegrating the soil
below the burrows, while the ridges
will crumble down. AS they will not
hold water, The air will circulate free
ly through them, decomposing the
mineral portions, and conveying in
ammonia and other gases. This OPP
Grafton will be equal to ten or more
loads Of good manure upon ella y or
compact soils.
In the spring it will only be neces-
sary to run a plough once or twice
through the centre Of each ridge, and
level the whole down witha heavy
harrow. s. - :
Another advantage in this process,
is that when land is thus prepared it
dries out and warns several days
earlier in the spring. Again there
are some soils that are exhausted up
on the surface, but which contain
poisonous substances in the subsoil.
II this subsOil is thrown up in con-
tact with the air and frost during
winter, these poisonous compounds
USUALLY proto-sulphste of iron or
manganese) will be destroyed, or chan
ged TO n harmless form, during the
winter.
The above practice is to be espe-
cialiy recommended in the garden
One Of the most successful cultiva-
tors of an acre of ground in our ac-
q1aintance, digs it up in the fall to
the depth of three or four feet, ma
king deep trenches and high ridges
SO that the whole acre appears to be
covered with high winrows Of hay
placed closely together.
We strongly urge every farmer
who has not tried this method, to lay
out their plans nov for experiment
in this way, on larger or smaller
scale, during the present season.

nTTHE CHEST. ~ns
Sir Ashley Cooper, Bart, NJ. D.,
The Eminent Medical Practition-
er, has left n valuable legacy
TO the World in his

HREAT Preventative of Consumption, and
VI unfailing cure for pulmonary diseases
without the use Of Medicine. Sir A. c., Bart
invented and advised the use of the
Medicated fur Chest Protector,
To all persons of all ages and conditions, as a
certain and safe shield against those fearful
diseases, Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Coughs, Colds, and other Affections of the
Lungs, which arise rom the exposed state OF
the chest, according to fashion, and the contin-
ual changes of our climate.
"The Protector" is simply chemically pre-
pared fur, lined with silk and padded, which.
suspended from the neck. covers the chest, in
so agreeable manner that, once worn, it be-
comes necessity and a comfort
"The Protector" although but recently in
troducsd into America ismaking rapid progress
through the United States, the Canadas, South
America, and the West Indies. 1t has for a
long time been staple article in England and
on the continent of Europe, while it has grown
in many countries to The position of an article
Of dress.
To demonstrate these facts enquire of any
English resident in your vicinity, of his knowl-
edge of the beneficial effects of wearing the
Protector. without recourse to doctrine of any
kind. The cost of wearing these articles is a
mere trifie, and one will last some years. No
one who values the health of himself or his
family will be without them. The hospitals
in this country are not alone recommending
them, but rapidly introducing them. Har-
coG. Bradley and Co., of London, and Man
cEJster. England, were originally entrusted
9th the manufacture of the Protectors, by the
lamented DIR. Cooper, and continue to manu-
facture according to his original instructions,
and therefore recommend those who would
wear the Protectors" to see to their being
genuine.
Remember this is staple article, and no
Patent Medicine.
