LIQUID Manure.

Liquid manure may be saved by the
proper construction Of stables, 81 as to pre-
serve In tanks or eisterns the leakage which
usually, IN great measure, runs to waste.
We need not describe any particular method
Of doing this, as any plan viii answer that
will accomplish the end, and there is nothing
dihicult in the operation. Good cutters, with
the necessary descent will carry of all the
!. liquid that will run from the stables, into any
q air-tight vessel, where Il can be preserved for
use. Barrels will answer for an experiment.
Another way Is 10 provide for saving the
LIQUID which RUNS from the manure piles.
T6e plan adopted in some places Is to throw
the liquid manure upon the compost hear,
end IN this way dried swamp muck, and ali
rollse from the farm, is converted into val.
uable manure, and 10 condition to be easily
applied to the soil. In other places, and mole
particularly in Flanders and parts Of IIol.
Imd, not only Is the liquid manure applied
20 The sod and growing crops, but fresh, solid
manure istaken directly from the stables,
.mId Thruwn into tanks, where it Is mixed
with water or liquid manure, or both. Here
it is allowed to ferment, and the solid parts
become partially dissolved, or so sofiened

water. This is doubtless the very best way
q applying manure to grass lands, and to all
green crops; and should the system Of soil
ing, Of which We spoke last week, become
general, the application Of manureiR liquid
form would soon follow.
The best way 10 apply liquid manure is to
III growing crops, and II Rpplied several
limas during The season, oil the better. The

Recipes.
The following recipes are from the columns
of a resnccied PHILADELPHIA cntemnorarY:

The following recipes are from the columns
of a respected Philadelphia cotemporary:
LiRimsaf for Sprdins and BrUisrs.-A raw
egg well beaten, half pint of vinegar, an
ounce of spirits Of turpentine, quarter of
an ounce Of spirits Of wine, and quarter of
an ounce of spirits Of campbor; these in.
gradients TO be mixed together, first dissolv.
ing the camphor in the spirits of wine, then
putting the mixture in a bottle and shake for
ten minutes, after which it is to be corked
down tightly to exclude the air. In half an
hour il is fit for use.
Putrid Sore ThroaL-lt has been asctr.
tanned by experiment that good fresh yeast,
taken internally, is a sovereign remedy for
putrid sore throat. It gives almost instant
relief
Cure for CdAcer.-Take o quantity Of red
oak bark, burn it to ashes; to this add water,
boil to the consistency Of molasses. Apply
il freely to the part affected leave 1t on for
an hour, afterwards cover over the plasters
with tar; remove it in few days; and If
protuberances appear in the wound, apply
the plaster and tar alternately until they all
disappear; after which apply any healing
saive.
Cure for Warts and CorRS-The bark Of
a willow tree, burnt TO ashes, mixed with
strong yineg'r and applied to the parts, will
renpye all corLs or excrescenees on any part
Of the body. (
Cure for BroRehitis-Blaney Blanche
Cobbett writes TO the London Post "an un.
falling remedy for this disease, and which
has been used successfully in cases where the
voice had become wholly lost for months.
She says :-"I never knew this remedy fail
with young or old; but as il is so very cheap
and innocent, think it superauous to refer
TO more cases, and will therefore only name
the article, which is the common saltpetre,
and one-half penny-worth Of which is suE
fieient TO cure any individual. The way TO
take IL is 10 suck it-a small lump at q time
and swallow IL as IL dissolves."

PATcBoULI.-Pogostemon patchouli is the
plant which produces the well known Indian
scent Patchouli, or Pucha.pgt. Specimens
Of the scent and Of The living plants are in the
museum and stores at Kew Gardens. Prof.
Tenore called the plant Pogoste mon sauvis.
The Arabs dry the leaves and stuff the pill
lows and mattresses with them, believing
that they prevent contagion and prolcng life ;
q belief which attaches among the ignorant
to sage and other Oduriferous plants. As q
scent, Palchouli is used by perfnmers chiefly
for mixing with other aromalics. Saehets
do PatchOuli are made of cottonwood,
among which few grains Of the powdered
Patchouli leaves are mixed, and folded in
paper Placed among clothes, they are said
TO drive away moths, etc. In Hindostan,
Patchouli is used by the women for scenting
their hair, and it is also mixed with tobacco
for the hooker. in this country the Patehouli
leaves, tits said wilretain their scent, IL dried
in the dark, by being placed singly in drawer
and turned daily for fortnight.
