Scrotula, or Kings Evil.

is constitutional disease, corruption Of the
blood, by which this 6uid becomes vitated,
weak, and poor. Being i'll the circulation, it
pcrvades the whole body, and may burst out
in disease on any part Of Il. No organ is free
from its attacks, nor is there one which it may
not destroy. The scrofulous tant is variously
caused by lncrcuriul disease, low living dis
ordered or unhealthy food, impure air, filth
and filthy habits, the depressing vices, and,
above all, by the vencrcal 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, ~
will visit the iniquitics OF the fathers upon
their children"
Its effects commence by deposition from tho
blood of corrupt or ulccrous matter, which, IN
the lungs, liver, and internal organs, is termed
tubcrclcs; i'll the glands, swellings; and on
the surface, erilptions or sores. This foul cor
ruption, which gciiders i'll the blood, depresses
the energies Of lfo, so that scrofulous constitu-
tions not only suffer from scrofulous COM
plants, but they have fur less power to with.
stand the attacks Of other diseases; conse-
Gucntly vast numbers perish by disorders
which, although not scroflilous in their nature,
are still rendered fatal by this tant in the
system. Most Of the consumption which de-
climates the human family has its origin directly
i'll this scrofulous contamination and many
destructive diseases of the liver, kidneys, brain,
and, indeed, of all tho organs, arise from or
are aggravated by the same cause. ..
One quarter Of all our people are scrofulous |;
their persons are invaded by this lurking in-
fiction, nnl their health is undermined by it.
To cleanse it from the system we must rcnovnte
IL blood by nm alternative medicine, and i'll
vi rate it by healthy food and exercise.

Acting. upon the teaching of the above

F,d gFudgingly, if atpll. to stock. There
lay be times when the price of cattle.
'shsep and hogs ate prOportioually lower
slan the price OF gram. so that there is
apparently a loss 10 converting rye, oats,
andcoru. into beef, pork and mutton, but
i. may be doubted whether there will not
l.wags, be gain enough in the quality of
ssio omanufs from grain fed animals, TO
yvsrbalance this apparent loss. Carefully
conducted experiments have proved con
9lusively that The quality Of manure de-
bends very greatly upon the richness Of
he food consumed. An illustration Of
Ibis fret was communicated to the New
England Farmer,by Hon. F. Ii. Holbrook
10 which we will call the attention of our
eadets. lie says:
,..HoW true is the remark Of Mr.. Coke.
ate Earl of Leicester, that the value Of
iarln-yard manure is 10 proportion 10 what
/, is made cf. If cattle eat straw alone,
the dung is straw alone; the cattle are
straw, the farm is straw, and the farmer Is
raw-they are all straw together. Not
loDg ago had four cows come up to the
stable in the Fall, which | thought might
yield good supply Of milk through tie
Winter, If well fed. Ialso had four other
animals, COWS and beifers, wbi were moi
expected to give much milk until the lol-
lowing grass season. The first four were
tied in the stable, side by side, ard re-
caivsd each, in addition TO hay AMI stalks.
four quarts Of corn and oatmeal each eve,
ming, through the! winter. AS we ex
pected. they gave good mess Of milk,
and came out well in the spring. The
manure OF those four cows was thrown
cut Of stable window under tie ca.lIe
shed, by itself.
The other four animals were tied ia
The same stable, next to the first four, and
received only hay and corn fodder. Their
manure was thrown out by itself at the
next stable window, and under the same
shed, SO that the Two heaps lay side by
side. The heap that was made by the
four cows that were drily messed with
potatoes aud meal. kept hot and smoking
all winer. and was wholly free from frost.
The heap made by the other animals that
had ouly hay and stalks, showed no signs
of fermentation. and was somew what frozen.
Observing this difference from time to
time,curio sity prompted me in the Spring
to apply those two heaps Of manure sera
rately, but in squal quantities. side by
side. on q piece Of ground. The superi.
ori.y Of the corn crop where the manure
from the messed cattle was applied. over
that where tho other heap was spread,
was quite apparent and striking, and call
cd my attention more particularly than it
was ever before directed to the import,
Ance Of feeding out our best or richest
products, il We would have the best kind
OF manure for our landd, and large crops
