Rlaelk reg in calves.

This disease--whicb is now prevailing to
some extent in this section-tirst makes its
appearance on the inside of the hind leg Of
the calf about two or three inches above
the hoof, in the form of small scab,--
Sometimes this scab will increase in size,
and sometimes it will not | have known
calves to die with it, when the scab was no
larger than five cent piece, and at other
times have seen it spread over the whole
surface Of the leg And if my observations
be correct, l believe the disease is more IA
tai when the scab is of small size, for this
indicates an insodrd working of the destroy
er. But if the soro or scab be large, and
matterates freely, there are some hopes that
the disease is of a superficial nature. This
disease is supposed to ascend the leg, thence
along the back bone, until it reaches the
vicinity of the heart, when the animal falls
an immediate victim to its power
That this death-dealing disease may be
stayed in its course, l would advise those
who have any of this afflicted class of stock,
to watch them with careful eye, and as
soon as the disease makes its appearance,
remove the scab, and with a sharp knife lay
open the leg about an inch above and be-
low the sore, cutting Immediately through it,
and if possible to the bone, which is no DIFF
ficult task, as the bone lies near the surface
in this part If the oriice should close too
soon, it should be opened again, and kept
open for several days, or until the calf is out
of all danger If the weather be dry, OF
the calves have good shelter, it would be
well to mix small quantity of sulphur
with their salt, as it would have a tendency
to purify their blood Cor. Ohio CA.

For the above quantity, dissolve well two

It's not generally known we think, how
easy matter II is TO examine the bottom
Of a well, cistern, OF pond Of water, by the
use Of common mirror Choking glass
When the sun is shining brightly, hold a
mirror so that the reflected rays Of light will
fall into the water. A bright spot will be
seen at the bottom, so light as 10 show the
smallest object very plainly. BY this means
we have examined the bottoms Of wells fifty
to eighty feet deep, when half full or more
Of water. The smallest straw or other OBJ
ject can be perfectly seen from the surface.
In the same way one can examine the bot
tom Of ponds and rivers, il the water is
somewhat clear, and not agitated by winds
or rapid motion. If we'll or cisiren be
under cover, or shaded by buildings, so that
the sunlight will not fall near the opening
II is only necessary to employ two mirrors
using one to reflect the light to the opening
and another to send it down perpendicular.
" into tho water. Light may be thrown
fifty or a hundred rods to the precise spot
desired, and then reflected downward. We
have used tho mirrors with success TO reflect
the light around a feld to shaded spot
and also carry It from a south window
through two rooms, aud then into cisterT
on the north side Of the house. Half doz
en- reflections of light may be made, thougl
each mirror diminishes the briliaucy Of tn,
light. Let any one not familiar with tbi
method try it, and be will find it not onl,
useful, but pleasing experiment. 1t will
perhaps, reveal a mass Of sediment at tn
bottom Of well, which has been littl
thought Of but which may have been
fruitful source of disease, by its decay in tn
water.-Am. Ag.

Ayers Cathartic Pills,
FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF FAMILY PHYSIC,

are so composed that disease within the range of
their action can rarely withstand or evade them.
Their penetrating properties search, and cleanse,

its healthy vitalities. AS consequence of these
properties, the invalid who is bowed down with
pain physical debility is astonished to find his
health or energy restored by remedy at once so
simple and inviting.
Not only do they cure the everyday complaints
Of every body, but also many formidable and
dangerous diseases The agent below named is

Intermittenf Fever, or Fever aud Aeue,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, OF Bilious
Headache. and Bilious Fevers, indeed
for the whole class Of diseases Origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria of miasmatic countries.
No one remedy Is louder called for by the
necessities Of the American people than sure
and safe cure for Fever and Ague Such
we are now enabled TO offer, with a perfect
certainty that il will eradicate the disease,
and with assurance, founded on proof, that
no harm can arise from its use in any guam
tity.
That which protects from or prevents this
disorder must be Of immense service in the
communities where IL prevails Prevention Is
better than cure, for the patient escapes the
risk which he must run in violent attacks Of
this baleful distemper. This "CuRB" expels
the miasmatic poison of FEVER AND AouR
from the system and prevents the develop
mont of tho disease, If taken on the first ap-
proach of its premonitory symptoms. 1t Is
not only the best remedy ever yet discovered
for this class of complaints, but also the
cheapest. The largo quantity we supply for
a dollar brings il within the reach of every
DOuyt ana In OlllOuS uStilctSs Wnefe fENEh
AND AavE prevails, every body should have it
and use it freely both for cure and protection.
1t is hoped this price will place it within the
reach of all-the poor as well as the rich. A
great superiority of this remedy over any
other ever discovered for the speedy and cer-
tain cure of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it pro-
duces no quinism or other injurious effects
whatever upon the constitution. Those cured
by it are left as healthy as if they had never
had the disease.
Fever and Agueis not alone the consequence
Of the miasmatic poison. A great variety Of
disorders arise from its irritation, among which
arc Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Headache,
Blindness. Toothache, Earache Catarrh, Asth-
ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection Of the
Spleen, Mysteries, Pain in the Bowels, Collie,
Paralysis, and Derangement of the Stomach,
all Of which, when originating in this cause,
put on the intermittent type, or become period
ical. This CuRE" expels the poison from
the blood, and consequently cures them all
alike. 1t is an invaluable protection to immi-
grants and persons travelling or temporarily
residing in the malarious districts. If taken
occasionally or daily while exposed to the in
fection, that will be excreted from the system,
and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity
to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more
valuable for protection than cure, and few will
ever suffer from Interlnittents, if they avail
themselves of the protection this remedy af.
