Small Pox in Sheep.

J 1t will be remembered that no little
f excitement was caused in England las
year by the appearance of small po2
, among sheep. Active measures were
soon instituted to meet the emergency
and we are happy to learn that they have
been successful. An Association formed
among the sheep breeders in Wiltshire,
to prevent the spread of the malady and
to afford compensation to those who
might sustain loss by its attacks, has just
closed its accounts, there being no pres
ent necessity for its continuance. The
proceedings of the Association during the
year are of general interest. When the
disease first appeared it was recommend
ed and practiced TO some extent, to inoc-
ulate exposed hocks, on the superstition
that the malady would be less severe in
its effects. This, however, proved not to
be the case inoculated hocks died off
rapidly, and thus the proposed prevent
i've only spread the infection. The Wilt
shire Association instituted experiments
to determine the efficacy Of vaccine virus,
which proved entirely satisfactory. Six
healthy sheep were vaccinated and then
confined with others that were diseased
with small pox, and which subsequently
died, but the vaccinated sheep resisted all
contagion and remained perfectly sound.
TO put the experiment to the extreme
test, the six sheep were afterwards moe
uated with small pox virus. Two of
them died, two had the disease rather
severely, and other two slightly, aud the
four fully recovered. The Association
recommend instant isolation of an infect.
ed sheep, and the vaccination of those in
the vicinity, as almost certain means of
Graduating the disease.
The labors Of the Association brought
to light some startling facts concerning
the introduction of diseases among stock
by importations from infected Districts
There remained no doubt that the small
pox was thus brought in. According to
government reports, the cattle disease of
England rose in ten years from a yearly
average of l IA, to 5, 6, and 10 per
cent. A government commissioner sta
ted that, 10 1862 the loss from disease
was at least three times the total amount
of cattle imported, large part of which
was clearly traceable to the introduction
of diseases from abroad. 1t is very Just
ly considered matter over which GOV
eminent should exercise proper control,
and it will not be amiss for American
farmers to give the subject due attention
in time. The pleuro-pneumonia excite
ment, though somewhat exaggerated,
shows how great the danger may be, and
as our focks and herds become more val
liable, the greater attention is given to
raise the standard of excellence by bring
ing in new blood, the risk will be proper
tionally increased.-American Agricul-

ITHE WILCOX & GIBBS Family Sewing
i Sewing Machine, is the best Machine, with
out regard to price for Family Sewing, Braiding,
Hemming, Telling Tucking, Cording 1t forms
a fiat even seam, which will not rip in wear even
when cut at frequent intervals, and makes the
tightest and most elastic seam, for Full Cloth, OF
any Machine stitch.
peculiar feature of this machine, which de-
serves particular attention, is PATENTED De-
VICE, which prevents the possibility of setting
the needle wrOng-and one which prevents the
Machine being turned wrong.
The Wilcox g. Gibbs Hemmers and Fellers
are the only real practical Hemmers in use, and
are worth one half of the price of the Machine,
over all others for family use. They form mar
row, light hem or fell, far nicer than can be done
by hand.
The feed has no tendency TO draw soft, light
goods down into the machine, but will sew Linen
Cambria perfectly.
1t is acknowledged by all who see or use this
Machine that it is the easiest to learn to and
keep in order of any Machine made.

ca The yield of fruit this season in
Michigan will be the largest ever known.
In 1861 the peach crop yielded about
10000 baskets; last year, owing to the
severe frost in May, it reached only about
10000 baskets from the estimate given
by the most extensive fruit growers the
peach crop this year will amount to 250,-
600 baskets.

10000 DOLLARS REWARD

TT is estimated that 10000 persons die annu-
l. ally in the United States, with consumption,
and Professor Eberly says, that a vast number
of these could be saved by the timely use Of
some proper remedy.
DIR. HALLS BALSAM strikes at the root Of
the disease AT ONCE, and such is its speedy eff
feet, that any one using it freely, according to
directions, for twenty four or forty eight hours,
and not entirely satisfied with its merits may re-
turn it and receive back his money. The most
distressing cough is frequently relieved by a
single dose, and broken up in few hours time
The afflicted do not have TO take bottle after bot
tie before they find whether this remedy will
afford relief or not.
u Call on the agent and get pamphlet gra-
tbs.
It has effected cures in numerous cases, where
the most skillful physicians in this country and
in Europe have been employed, and have exer-
cised their skill in vain. Cases which they pro-
nOunced incwabie, and surrendered as hopeless
beyond a doubt, leaving the patients without a
single ray to eniven them in their gloom, have
been cured by DIR. HALLS BALSAM,
and the victims Of consumption" are now Wig
orOus and strong as the most robust amongns.
And these cases are not isolated ones they are
numerous, and can be pointed out in every COM
munity, where this most unriyaled remedy has
been tested.
Be slow, then, to believe the oft repeated story
about the lungs being gone; or rather let no
such apprehension induce you to give up. Act
upon the principle that tchite there IS life there is
hope. You can NEVER BE so LOW that you may
not trust, humanity speaking, in HALLS BAL
SAM. More than one, nay hundreds, has it
brought almost from death to life, when all else
had failed. Give, then, this powerful but harm
less remedy a trial.
The public have been imposed upon by RENE
dies recommended by certificates which have
always originated from some unknown source.
We believe that medicine possessing real mer-
its will effect cures wherever it is used, at home
as well as abroad. This is no paregoric prepar-
alton, but one which, if used in season, will save
the lives of thousands.
