Scrofula. or RI o,s Evil,

weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part Of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is valiouslY
caused by mercurial disease, low living, dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, tiltl,
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the venereal infection. What
ever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
stitution, descending +" from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation )" indeed,
it seems to be the rod of Him who says, Il
will visit the iniquities of the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt or ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubercles; in the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, eruptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which genders in the blood, depresses
the energies of life, so that scrofulous consttu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous com
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently, vast numbers perish by disorders
winch, although not scrofulous in their nature.
are still rendered fatal by this faint in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver kidneys, brain,
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofllous:
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
fiction, and their health is undermined by il.
To cleanse it from the system we must renoyate
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and in
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise.

A CRACK IN TIE Hoe THoUGH. Some
time ago a friend sent me word that he
gave every day nearly twenty pals OF
buttcrmilk to lot of shoats, and they
scarcely improved a bit on it. Thinks
], this is breed of hogs worth seeing
they must be of the sheet-iron kind,
so | callel on him, heard him repeat the
mournful tale, and then visited the sty.
In order to get closer view of the mir
aculous swine, l went into the pen, and
on close examination found crack in
the trough, through which much of the
contents ran away under the floor.
Thinks l, here is the type Of much oil
the failures and misfortuncs of cur agri-
cultural brethren. When see far
mer emitting all Improvements, because
of little cost, selling all his good franz
stock to buy bank, or railroad, or mort
gage stock robLing his land, while, in
reality, he is also robbing himself and
heirs, thinks |, my friend, you have a
crack in your hog-trough.
When | SEQ farmer buying guano,
but wasting ashes and hen manure, try
ing all sorts of experiments except in
tellectual hard work and economy get
ting the choicest seeds regardless to cul-
tivation and good sense; growing the
variety of fruit called Sour Tart Feed
d, ling" and swectening it with sugar,
pound for pound, keeping the front fields
rich and neat, while the back lots are
'overgrown with elder briars, srapdrog-
on and thstles, contributing literally to
the Choctaw Indian Fund, and never
giving a cent to any Agricultural Socie-
iy-such man, | will give a written
guarantee, has got crack both in his
head and in his hog-trough.
When l see q farmer spending his
time travelling and visiting in a carriage,
when he has to sell all his corn to pay
the hired help; and his hogs are so lean
that they have to lean against the fence
to sustain themselves while squcaing,
| rather lean to the conclusion that
somebody that stays at home will have
lien on the farm, and some time the
bottom will come entirely out of the hog
trough. -Ordnye Co@ay Farmer.

AYERS
Compound Extract Of Sarsaparilla,

the most effectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active remedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it should be employed for the cure Of
not only scrofula, but also those other affec-
tons which arise from it, such as ERUpT1vE
and SKIN DISEASES, ST. ANrHoNY's FIRE,
Rose, or ERYsIPELAs, PIMPLEs, PUsruLEs,
BLoToHEs, BLAINs and BORIS, TuMoRs, TETTER
and SALT RHBUM, ScALD HEAD, RINswoRM,
RHEUMATISM, SYPHILrrIC and MEncURIAL DIS
BASES, DRoPsY, DYSPEPSIA, DEBILITY, and,
indeed, ALL COMPLAINTS ARISING FROM VITIA-
TED OR IMPURE BLOOD. The popular belief
in impurity of the blood" is founded in truth,
for scrofula is a degeneration of the blood. The
particular purpose and virtue of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and regenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible in
contaminated constitutions.

MANNER or MILKING. The manner
of milking exerts a more powerful and
lasting influence on the productivencss
of The COW than most farmers are aware
Of. That a slow and careless mixer
coon dries up the best of cows, every
practical farmer and dairyman knows.
The first requisite of a good mixer is,
Of course, the utter cleanliness. With
out this the milk is uncomfortable The
udder should, therefore, be carefully
cleaned before the milking commences
The mixer may begin gradually and
gently, but should stea, lily increase the
rapidity of the opperation till the udder
is cmpticd, using a pail sufficiently large
to hold all, without the necessity of
changing. Cows are very sensitive, ard
the pail cannot be changed nor can the
mixer stop or rise during the process of
milking without leading the COW more
or less to withhold her milk. The ut
most care should be taken to strip to the
last drop, and do it rapidly, and not in
slow and negligent manner, which Is
sure to have It's effect on the yield ofthe

sd into the system, or else eomc caked,
and diminishes the tendency to sccretc
full quantity afterwards.-If gentle and
mild treatment is observed and pcrscve-
red in, the operation of milking APP
pears to be one of pleasure to the ami
NAL, as it undoubtedly is, but if an OPP
posite course is pursucd-if, at every
restless movement, caused, perhaps by
pressing soar tcat, the animal is harsh
iy spoken to-shc will be likely to learn
to kick as habit, and it will be diff
cult to overcome it afterwards. To in
duce quiet and readiness to give down
the milk freely, it is better that the COW
-sIh-euid be fed at milking time with cut
food, or roots, placed within her easy
reach. The same person should milk
the same COW regularly. and not change
from one to another, unless there are
special reasons for it.-Foreigm E.r-
