STAY WHERE Yor ARE.

In the West We have met with persons
possessed Of mania for clearing land. As
long rs their farms afford unlimited opportu-
mites for chopping down huge trees and
burning up huge logs. they work away with
the ardur II passion; but the moment they
have made their farms tillable aud houses
inhabitable, they take no further interest
in them whatever, and are eager to sell out
and plunge deeper into the woods. to play
again with the ave aud brand. Thus the
country Is cleared rapidly; but the blood ui
the people is feyercd, aud the passion for
change continues after the good dune by il
has been accomplished:
The necessity iof rapid clearing Of land
has ceased. We have cleared faster than VIC
have appropriated. The Eastern and Mid.

that our farmers should buy Northern pork,

The plan throughout the South, excepting
only in those districts Whpre land is too val

hogs to run in the woods all the year, until

Those that survive, are generally stunted

will not keep up their swine, they should at
least provide better means OF support Tor

After hogs have consumed the field peas,

fat, il is necessary, as every farmer knows
10 feed them on corn awhile. to harden The
fat. They should be put in cln,e pens with
floors Of fence rails or outside planls. And
as the cold weather has set in by this time
the pens should, by all means. be sheltered

One OF the most interesting items Tint has

been received by the Commissioner Of Pa

gentleman stated in a note which accompa-

years saving the best seed, and the best from
il in turn, until he had developed grain

There is something in this twenty years
OF patience, until an important result is ac-

TESTIMONY FROM OHIO.
JOHN HOFFMAN,, brownsville, Ohio, May Both, 1853,
said: ! j write to state for your satisfaction, and also

you recommend it to be, a highly valuable medicine,
which know from having used it in my own fami
ly to my entire satisfaction. All who have used it
give the same accommodation"
STEPHEN A. MEALY, Canton, OHIO, May IL, 1853,
says: "Having heard your German Bitters highly
recommended from sources in which ! placed much

great benefit from it; two of the others ] sold i'm.
medlately, and | would like you to send me q supply
Of it to SELL"

says: Your German Bitters have proved successful
in every case that has come to my knowledge, and
has opened for itself q great demand"
THOMAS LETcHFoRD, Covington, Ohio, Dec, 9th,
1852, says: "My wife has been affected with the
Liver complaint and Dyspepsia for a number ofyears
during which time | have spent a greatdeal for doc
teFing, but she received very little benefit therefrom
and finally the doctors said she could not be cured.
Last spring she concluded to try your Bitters, she
took two bottles and ever since taking them she has
been able to attend to her business, until very lately
she had a new attack, but has again commenced
the Bitiers. | have sold quite a lumber OF bottles
through her recommendation, ard as far as ! can
learn, it has given satisfaction to all"
DAvlB ABBOTT, Austinburgh, Ohio, December 5
