RECEIPT FOR CURING MEAT.

The Germantown Telegraph gives
the following receipt for curing meat,
and says that LATTER using it for about
twenty years, and comparing the
hams so cured with others cured by a
dozen different processes, we are
more than ever convinced of its SUI
pcriority" 1t is this:
"To one gallon of water take ! /
lbs. of salt, J ID. of sugar, ] OF. o.
saltpetre, and J OF. of potash. In this
ratio, the pickle to be increased t.
any quantity desired. Let these be
boiled together, until all the dirt from
the sugar rises to the top and is
SKINNED off. Then throw it into ;
tub to cool, and when cold, pour il
over your beef or pork, to remain tho
usual time, say four or five weeks
The meat must be well covered with
pickle, and should not be put down
for at least two days after killing
during which time it should be slight
~ sprinkled with powdered saltpeter
which removes all the surface blood
etc, leaving the meat fresh and clean
"Several of our friends have omit
ted the boiling of the pickle, and foun'
it to answer equally as well. 1t wi
not, however, answer quite so well
BY boiling the pickle, it is purified
for the amount of dirt which is throw
off by the operation, from the salt an
sugar, would surprise any one not az
auainted with the fact"

SCIENCE IN AGRICULTURE.

The vegetable as well as the AMI
NAL creation possess life, and the life
of the one, as well as that OF the 9TH
er, is sustained by food and proper
feeding is as necessary to the develop
mcnt. vigor and perfection of the one
MS the other. A hill of corn is brought
TO its full growth and maturity III like
manner as a calf is made to become
full-crown ox-namely, by means OF
q sufficient quantity of appropriate
food each according as its nature re-
ouires Hence the demand for science
in agriculture. By selecting the ear
lest pods, and the largest beans IN
the pods for seed, we are enabled to
raise much earlier and larger beans
than we should if we were careless IN
the selection of the seed. The same
holds true in regard to corn, wheat,
and every variety Of grain: by TINS
means, then, and by the application OF
proper fertilizers as food to the plants,
our harvcsts may be made much more
abundant the quality of the gram
better, therefore more marketable,
which will insure it ready sale at
the highest price. Hence, we say
that bv always selecting the largest
and earliest kernels Of grain for seed,
as much improvement can be made III
the species of grain, as is made III 0fceas
of stock by proper care and attention
in that direction.
termination and growth OF seeds
will follow almost any treatment, IN
almost any soil but to secure the
harvest in its full maturity and per-
lection, the soil must be properly fer
tilted and prepared, the seed proper
" sown, and the plants properly cul-
tivated until the time of harvest. Eve
nv farmer has noticed that some hills
ia his corn-iicld are much more pro-
ductive than others that some por'
tions of the field yield much more
abundantly than other portions. Tins
NAV not be owing to any particular
variation in the manner of cultivation
but, all things else being equal, 1T II
occasioned by difference IN the SOIL
which furnishes the sustaining Gle
ments upon which the growth Of the
plants depend. There is no magic o.
magical operation connected with 1t
nothing but what every practical, IN
telligent farmer is able to compre
lend and nothing but what he can
make practical, and cause the pooreS
or least productive of his ground t.
yield equal to the richest or most pro
ductive. Neither can the individual
who is thus successful attribute hi
success to luck; but he has attaine'
the best results simply by adopting
the best means. He properly pre-
parcs, properly seeds, and properly
cultivates and with a favorable sea
son he invariably gathers into ms
garner a bountiful harvest-whict
richly rcmunerates him for the eXpcn'
diture of his labor and pains.
Hence, the necessity of being Ia
miliar with the action of different fer
tiIizers and stimulants Of possessing
knowledge of the wants OF dliier-
ent crops and of the nature OF the
soil we cultivate-by which means we
are enabled to make proper appllca'
ton of manurcs to the soil, and .feed
our plants scientifically, or according
as their natures require.

No injurious effects will be produced should
the patient be ever so much reduced. An
overdose will cause nausea and sometimes
vomiting, but will produce no other unpcas

Patients should avoid taking too large dos

king dose that will rest well on the stomach.
The precise dose for each individual patient,
or he number of times to he taken during the
day, will depend very much upon the temper
amcnt of the patient. As general thing, the
patient should commence with a small dose,
increasing in amount until nausea OF dcprcS-
sion is produced, then continue in slightly di-
minshed doses until the desired effect is pro-
duccd.
