CoRSs CURED.--HaWs Journal of
Health gives us this mode The SAT-
est, the most accessible, and the most
efficient cure of corn on the toe, is
to double piece of thick, soft buck
skin, cut hole in it large enough to
receive the corn, and bind it around
the toe. If, in addition to this, the foot
is soaked in warm water for five or
more minutes, every morning and
night, and few drops of sweet oil OF
other oily substance are patiently
rubbed in on the end after the soak
ing, the corn will almost infallibly
become loose enough in few days to
be easily picked out with n finger
nail; this saves the necessity Of pairing
the corn. which operation has some
times been followed with painful and
dangerous symptoms. If the corn be
comes announcement again, repeat the
process at once.

TOp.DressIng Grass Land.


Tho practice Of burying organic ma
nure deep in the soil is fast passing
away. The air cannot readily reach it
TO decempose and render it available
for the food OF plants and if it did,
the great mass of the roots of grasses
would not penetrate to find it. They
prefer the first few inches of soil near
the surface, where they get the benefit
of the rain and air, and the we'll pre-
pared food which abounds there. The
plow and the spade should indeed BE-
thrust down deep, but the fresh ma
nure should not be deposited below
the deep-turned furrow slice, but near
or the surface, to enrich the soil only
ms the rains carry it down, or ms it
becomes thoroughly incorporated with
the soil The letters of our subscrib-
ers continually testify to the benefits
OF top-dressiDg meadows and pastures
One declares though the farmers ia lis
section suffered from drouth last sea
son, yet those fields which had been
dressed early in the previous autumn
with muck, or muck and manure
composted or even strawy manure,
suffered little and bore handsome
crops. 1T is growing practice of
many good farmers to apply manure
over their meadows Immediately after
haying They hold that it protects
the newly exposed roots from the
scorching sun, and brings up the af-
termartb vigorous and abundant. T.
The loss Of volatile matter which prob
ably takes place is not 50 bad ms the
effect of a parching heat on the ex-
posed roots
When the land is rolling, the knobs
should receive heavier dressings than
the low and level land. If carted out
and spread after moving or in autumn,
it acts as mulch, protecting the roots
of the grasses, and preventing their.
being thrown out by the frost. This
work can generally be done cheaper
in autumn than in spring, and with
less injury to the land from the tramp
ling of teams. For lawns, fall dress
ing is always preferable to spring, be-
cause the manure gets washed down
close to the ground and out Of sight
during the winter, and so does not
interfere with the close cutting in
summer
