mond County, North Carolina.
PINE HILL, March a, 1854.
DEAR SIR: have been subject of Dyspepsia, in
its worst FORM for the last five years. Such was my
condition for twelve months that the physicians and
all who saw me said must die. While In this con-
dition, was carried to the watering places in Vr-
ginia. Tennessee and North Carolina, but was not
benefited by any water TO which was taken. While
ON my way home, stopped week at Rutherfordton,
small village in North Carolina to try the effect Of
some Chalybeate water in that place. About the last
of the week went into drug store to get some med
icine for nv child and myself There were several
of the village physicians in the store, and one OF them
seemed to take interest in my case and, after
asking me some questions, said he had been q dys.
peptic, and had been greatly benefited by the use OF
a Ifoohands 8 German Btters," prepared by ysu, and
he insisted that I would try the 'Bitters. lie also
called the next day at my room and insisted 30 much
that would try them that i asked him TO get me
one bottle He did it, and commenced taking it as
directed. and was more benefited by it than all the
water and medicine had ever taken
After reaching home, one Of my neighbors came to
me for prescription and medicine, the adyspeptic,
and gave him nearly all the Bitters had left which
effected much good in his case. He has often called
on me for more of the same kind of medicine saying
he was more benefited by il than any other he had
taken but have not been able to get any more for
him or myself since. Will you, therefore, please ship
me dozen or more as soon as possible II
Respectfully, yours, w. SMITH.

Urseasoned Fuel.

A few calculations relative to the compar'
atiye value Of green and seasoned wood for
fuel, may serve to remind those interested
of the importance Of attention to the su ject.
Everybody knows tha. green wood is poor
srair to kindle a fire. though some contend
that it will keep up Us well as seasoned, il
applied constantly, not suffering the heat to
20 down That is If you have good fire TO
season IL Al, you can burn green wood as
well as dry. But to the calculation.
Agrcen stick Of wood weighing 100 lbs,
when seasoned weighs only 66 lbs, or such
is about the average of wood commonly used
for fuel. Ina seasoned stick you hare all
the wood-all that will support combustion
you have only got rid Of "a lbs. of water.
Now, water will not burn, and IL present in
fuel, it has to be converted into steam, at
expense Of that fuel, and il will take five
times as much heat to make steam Of water,
us it will simply to bring it TO boiling
point. Here Is seen at once the poor econO-
my Of burning green wood.
We have shown that about twO-thirlS Of
the weight Of green wood is water-now,
how many barrels Of watur arc there IN .
cord Of wood? There are l2s cubic feet in
cord, which allowing two-ifths for vacant
space between the sticks, leayes - feet Of
solid wood, one-third of which is water
equal to over six barrels Of water in every
cord of green wood. The heat required to
eyapOmtc this water, would bring thirty
barrels TO the boiling point. And this is
not the only expense. If the wood was cut
properly, piled and seasoned in the woods,
the cost of drawing it would be nearly one
third less. ANY way you can look At it
the economy Of burning green is more than
questionable. r.|r. .Wr OIL.
Every farmer should look at, and deter
mine to keep a stock Of wool on hand, suC-
fcient to last one year, at least. And he
NAV take another look at the difference be-
tween wood seasoned just enough, and un-
der cover, and that which has lam out doors
until all the ap-wood has become rotten,
