Scrofula, or Kings Evil,

Is a constitutional disease q corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes vitiated,
weak, and poor. Being in the circulation, it
pervades the whole body, and NAV burst out
in disease on any part of it. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which il may
not destroy. The scrofulous faint is yariously
caused by mercurial disease, low living. dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
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, 81
will visit the iniquities OF the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from the
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 constitu-
tons not only suffer from scrofulous CON-
plants, but they have far less power to with
stand the attacks of other diseases; conse-
quently vast numbers perish by disorders
which, 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
and, indeed, of all the organs, arise from OF
are aggravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous
their persons are invaded by this lurking in
lection, and their health is undermined by it
To cleanse it from the system we must removals
the blood by an Alternative medicine, and IN
vigorate it by healthy food and exercise

Compound Extract of Sarsaparilla,

the most efectual 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 ERUPTIvE

in "in.pvity 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

This month is an important one for
the farmer, though he may be confined
to the barnyard and the stables, the
greater part of it by the weather and
by the state of the roads and of the
land. There is work to do neverthe-
less that will aid in every operation
that is to be carried ON for the whole
year. The work consists in getting
ready for start. During the month
of March. every farmer will have
noticed that there is from ten to twenty
days when great amount of work
can be done, that is better done then
than later, and to take advantage of it.,
it is requisite that all the teams, har-
ness, plows, and harrows should be
ready. Hence now is the time, when
the roads are too soft to go to market,
and the land is too saturated with the
frost TO permit any team work to be
done, to have every pillow, harrow, and
other implement hauled out from the
tool house or sheds where they have
been. piled up, their condition examin-
ed, every nut and screw frightened up,
and all repairs made. Probably this
examination now, may savesh days
valuable service Of a team and man,
besides the use of the implement when
in comparison with the present season,
every hours work is actually and truly
worth a dollar in comparison with a
cent.
Ii the dry gales which prevail in the
latter part of March have their usual
effect, many fields, designed for crops
of oats or of barley will be ready for
the pillow, and not minute should be
lost in getting the teams, the harness,
and the implements ready to drive
such work through in the most ener-
getic manner. Every day gained in
the sowing of either of these crops,
adds to the value of the grain and gives
it more time to mature. 1t is at this
season also, if not done already, that
the seed should be measured out exam
inod as to its cleanness, cleaned over
and over till all foul stuff is got rid OF
and then measured and bagged up, at
the rate of an exact quantity to the
acre. The teams also should be seen
to now, and their food dealt to them
with more liberal and exact hand, SO
that when the time arrives at which a
full days work is expected from them
there will be no giving out from ex-
haustion caused by want of condition.
If all this kind of work has not been
already done, do not premit it to be
neglected any longer. Every days
blowing done in March is equal to two
done in any other month.-Mich. Far

century Of years yet in many of our
orchards, seldom reaches beyond halt
that period So much for civilization
Must we, therefore, not prune at all ?
By no means. 1t is the heroic style
we inveigh against, and would have
dispensed with as soon as possible.
Moderate and timely pruning has much
to recommend it. The beauty of a
tree and its fruitfulness may be promo
ted by it, and that with little injury to
the trees health. Plainly however, to
accomplish this, the work must be be-
gun very early, and take the character
of training rather than of pruning
the decisions being done monty oy
Thumb and finger, or with no more
formidable Instrumentation aJack-knife.
Let the saw be broken, and the Ratchet
buried.
In pruning for beauty, all that is
needfnl is to begin with the young tree,
nip out any erossbranches that appear,
pinch off any sided. ill-shaped shoots,
and endeavor to keep the tree SYMMETRY
cal. Within such general limits, let the
tree develop its own peculiarities, and 1t
will be beautiful according to the kind.
Whenever a branch larger than on lit
tie finger must be taken OF, the wound
should be covered with grating wax
or shellac.
In pruning for fruitfulness, the aim
is to impede the perpendicular flow OF
sap, and the tendency to make more
wood. This is often effected by cut
ting out the central shoot, and by favor.
ing in various ways, a horizontal growth
of branches. This checks the wood
making force, and promotes a deposi'
ton of fruit buds. This also gives the
tree more globular shaped head, and
so exposes the fruit to light and air,
and improves its appearance and flavor.
As to the best time Of the year for
pruning, this may depend somewhat
upon the object we wish to accomplish
If we want to guide the growth OF the
tree into new directions, or to stimu
late a stunted tree, the last of Winter.
or very early in Spring may answer
though the best authorities prefer the
Fall or late Summer. But, to diminish
rapid growth, to promote fruit bearing,
and for most other purposes, the early
summer is the best time. After pran'
ing in Spring, there is apt to be
troublesome growth of suckers, just be-
low the wound I; increasing the evil
which it was designed to remedy
Then, too, the flow of crude sap in the
Spring is so very strong, it is difficult
to stop it; it oozes out from the wounds
and runs down, corroding the surround
ing bark and wood, often engenderine
decay. But when pruning is done in
the month Of June, the wounds are
protected by the foliage, the first strong
upward flow of sap is over, and the de
scending sap is elaborated into eombi
umor new wood, which begins at once
to heal over the wounds, and to pre-
serve them from decay.-Anaericar
