cality; also the time for seeding. tho
quantity to be sown, and the propriety
of mixing with other grasses, &c.
Blue grass, { Poa pratsHse, is a hardy
grass throughout New England, Wiseon-
sin, Minnesota, aud Of course in Micbi.
gan. IL is almost everywhere the first of
the cultivated grasses to make its appear-
anoe in new settlements. On the prai-
rles of Illinois. Indiana and Iowa, this
grass soon gets possession Of the soil, if
the coarse prairie grasses are kept close.
ly fed. In the latitude of Southern Ohio
and Kentucky, it attains larger growth
than at the North, and is there more val
liable, in comparison with other grasses.
IL tiourishes best in limestone regions.
and on rich warm soils; it is not materi-
ally injured by shade. and hence its adap-
tation to woods, pastures and openings.
Blue grass is not specially adapted for
hay, the quantity afforded being small,
and scarcely Of first quality, unless cut
very early; but as pasture grass, il is
ofimmense value. 1t is one of tho first
grasses to start in the spring, and the
last to suffer from the effect of frost in
the fall. In the valley of the Ohio, it is
almost evergreen.
North Of Central Ohio, il is not desi-
rable, (if indeed il be anywhere, } tossed
pastures with blue grass exclusively;
orchard grass, timothy, red-top clover,
and combined with blue grass, make the
pasture much better for the season
through, for no grass is exactly in sea,
son, and equally productive at all times
In fact, when blue grass gets entire pos,
session of the sod, which il is very much
inclined to do, it is common in many sec
tions to break up and seed again with clo
yer, and some of the more productive
grasses.
The seed may be sown at any time il
the early spring, either upon the as
snow, or after its disappearance. Two
or three quarts of seed, or less, If mixed
with other kinds, is sufficient for an acre

TEE CULTIVATION OF THE PO.
TAT0,

The production Of this plant has, IN
the greater majority Of cases, failed al
most entirely. The great secret, howev-
err, is because il is not managed right;
the soil has not been properly cultivated
before planting and has not received that
faithful and necessary attention ths, IL
should / have been connected with that
line Of business for the last fifteen years,
and have succeeded, l think, in discover
ing the best mode ofgrowing this most
valuable plant
An acre Of good soil, when properly
titled, ought not to produce less than two
hundred and farty bushels. Having the
ground in proper order when they are to
be planted, is an item not to be overlook
al by those who wish to succeed WE'LL
IL should be plowed twice before plat
ing, the first time about the middle of
April, and then lie until about ready to
plant, when il should be re.plowed very
deep. The potatoes should not be plant-
ed until about the teoth or fifteenth of
May, when the freezing blasts Of winter
will not interrupt their growth. Before
planting, the re- plowod ground should be
thoroughly narrowed three or four times
until it is perfectly mellow 1t should
then be marked off in squares about two
feet each way, and the sets covered about
seven inches deep, with light plow,
throwing the earth from both sides on
tho potato. When they are just beginning
TO peep through the earth, they should
be run over with light one-horse brush,
in order to level the ground and prepare
1t for the plow In few days. when
the plants are about three inches in hight
plow twice in each row, with small
plow. They should be plowed twice q
week, in order TO keep the grass and
weeds down, if there should be any
This is important in cultivating anything
In plowing, pains should be taken so a.
not to cover up the vines. Ground should
not be selected that is inclined to be wei
during the spring and summer seasons
The richest ground is preferred for plant
ing potatoes, as piece Of clover or blue
grass sod.-G. b. Miler, Je9ersoRviHe

Ague Cure.


ron THE SPEEDY CURE OF
Intermittent Fever or Fover and Ague,
Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious
Headache, and Bilious Fevers; indeed
for the whole Glass Of Diseases origi-
mating in hillary arrangement, caused
by the Malaria Of miasmatio countries.
No ono remedy Is louder called for by tho NO
ccssitios of the American people than a suro and
snio cure for Fever and Aguo. Such remedy
We arc now enabled to offer, with u perfect GER
tainty that It will eradicate the disease, and with
assurance, founded ON proof, that no harm can
arise from lis use in any quantity.
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be Of immense service In the commu-
mites where Il prevails. Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
no must run in violent attacks Of this balofu
dstempor. This "CURE eNpels tho mlas-
! matte poison Of FEVER AND AoUn iiom the

montory symptoms. IL Is not only tho best
remedy ever yet discovered for this class Of COM

I tity wo suPply for dollar brings it within the
reach Of every body ana IN bilious districts,
whore FEVER AND A0UE prevails, overy body
should have it, and use II freely, both for cure
and protection. 1t Is hoped this price will place
itwithn the reach Of nll-t the poor as well as the
rich, A grent superiority Of this remedy over
any other ever discovered for the speedy and
certain cure Of Inlermiuonts Is, that u contains
10 Quinine or mineral, consequently Il produces
no qulnism or other injurious effects whatever
| upon the constitution. Those cured by II art
left as healthy us If they had never had the dis.
case.
Fever and Aguo is not alone the consequence
Of the minsmntic poison. A great variety Of dis
orders arise from It's irritation. among which are
Neuralgia, rheumatism, Gout Headache, Blind
ness, Toothache, Earache Catanh, Asthma
Palpitation, Painful Affection Of the Spleen
Mysteries, Pain in tho Bowels, Collie Paralysis
and Derangcment Of the Stomach, oil Of which
