PUMPKINS ALONE AND AMONG Corn.
Doubtless thousands of the readers Of
the AgrtcuhuriSt regard the corn field as
the only place for raising pumpkins But,
however little the harm that pumpkins do
the corn-and we believe that in good
seasons they produce quantity OF food
which much more than counter-balances
the evil which they may do--they will
yeild much larger and finer product if
planted by themselves. Putting the hills
feet apart, two or three good shovclfuls
of well rotted manure being dropped on
the surface and covered by little EARTH
the pumpkins will luzuriate in unobstructcd
sunshine and upon the fat of the land and
when Autumn strips away the leafy cov-
ering under which they are hid, golden
harvest will be disclosed which will do
one sheart good. Low growing, small
stalked varieties of corn do not essentially
interfere with the ripening of good crops
of pumpkins. But if planted with corn
they should in no wise interfere with the
thorough cultura Of the corn. A good plan
is to drop seed in every other hill, to Sc
cure good seed. The medium sized round
dark orange colored, fine grained varieties
are best keepers. The cheese pumkiu is
preferable for family use or for market

in hill equally distant, in rows running
both ways at the second hocing, after
plowing or running the wecder both ways,
plant beans between the hills in the rows
running one way. Others pant similarly
at the same time that the corn is planted.
Beans cultivated by themselves are a
very profitable crop, not exhausting to the
soil, and an admirable food for sheep

McrcHriul Dscases-There is probably one article
given as "A medicine, the injuCious use Of which has
cuscd such widespread and terrible mischief to the
human system mercury. Its poison sinks deep into
the system penetrating the substance Of the bones and
producing long train Of painful diseases. 1t is well
known that many affections of the throat Of the bones

cous use mercury, so that the remedy has proved
worse than the disease.

The Life Pills and Phoenix Bitters have always been
signaly successful in this class of Diseases aud will
eradicate all the effects of mercury from the system
sooner than the most powerful preparations of
plra. They aid nature in casting from the system all
poisonous matter and by thus purifying the vital fluids
they restore the system to health.
Bilious Conplaints.-A well regulated and proper
tionatc quantity OF bile upon the stomach is always
quislte for the promotion of sound hcalthit stimulates
digestion, and keeps the intestinal canal free from all
ubstructions. On the interior surface of the liver is
peculiar bladder in which the bile is first preserved
being formed by the liver from the blood Thence it
passes into the stomach and lntcstnes and regulates
the digestion. Thus we when there is deficiency
of bile, the body is constantly costve. On the other
hand abundance of bile causes frequent
