In considering the advantages and dis
advantages Of tobacco culture, Professor
Brewer thus states the case: The sole ad-
vantage is that an individual may grow
rich from raising it. On the other hand
a nation never will for the one man S
gain is obtained at the cost of his son,
and sons son in getting his fortune he
has taken from his children the means of
future gain, like the owner of the goose
who laid the golden eggs. The crop
terribly exhausts the soil it is very pre-
4arious because of the weather and in.
sect enemies the laborers who cultivate
i,suffer in health and the land, which
must always be of the best quality, could
be employed in raising breadstuffs TO
more general profit.

Wheat.

Wheat. Of al the cereals. requires the
largest amount Of potash, and hence that
crop that will retain the largest quantity
in free state is the best to precede it,
Thus the crop OF corn. of potatoes, of
beans and of roots or green crops, as
they are termed, by the culture required
and the exposure of large part of the
surface, are admirably adapted to prepare
the soil for wheat crop SO also ola clo-
yer or timothy meadow, which always
retaining the free potash near the SUR
face, are of no small value, and when our
farmers resume the culture OF winter
wheat. which they will at no distant day,
it will be on underdrained meadow land
turned over in August aud sown imme-
diately after If the corn crop has been
we'll cultivated it is of little consequence
whether the land is again plowed before
sowing or not, SO far as regards the yield,
provided that the seed is thoroughly har-
rowed In. When the corn is husked ear
y in the fall, the entire crop Of stalks can
be plowed under by applying ueed-
hook to the plow beam, and they will
not be in the way of the harrow, when
sowing in the spring. The stalks thus
plowed under will serve to drain the soil
and to keep up its fertility by returning
TO the soil the whole amount of potash
drawn from it by the preceding crop
Potatoes, beans and green crops have the
effect of summe.. faiiow without absorb
ing the potash, hence the luxuriant
growth of spring wheat after all these
crops but these crops are often put up
on black loamy soils, and in such cases
The growth of straw is increased and the
grain is often shrunk. -Farmer's -4avo-

as he journeyed, he met n certain NJ. d., Phari

And it came to pass that certain Samaritan
came where he was /: and when he saw him, he

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 miasmatic countries.
No one remedy is louder called for by the ne.
cesslties of the American people than sure and
safe cure for Fever and Ague. Such remedy
we are now enabled to offer, with perfect Ger.
tainty that it will eradicate the disease, and with
assurance, founded on proof, that no harm can
arise from its use in any quantity
That which protects from or prevents this dis
order must be of immense service in the commu-
mites where it prevails Prevention is better
than cure, for the patient escapes the risk which
he must run in violent attacks of this baleful
distemper. This "CURE" expels the mias-
matte poison of FEVER AND AGuE from tho
system, and prevents the development Of the
disease if taken on the first approach of its pre-
monitory symptoms. 1t is not only the best
remedy ever yet discovered for this class of COM
plants, but also the cheapest. The large guam
tity we supply for dollar brings it within tho
reach Of every body; and in bilious districts,
where FEVER AND AGUE prevails, every body
should have it, and use it freely, both for cure
anu ProecctioH- II u nOpcu tniS price VIII place
it within the reach of all the poor as well as tho
rich. A great superiority of this remedy over
any other ever discovered for the speedy and
certain cure Of Intermittents is, that it contains
no Quinine or mineral, consequently it produces
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 dis
ease. r. Et1
Fever and Ague is not alone the consequence
