Messrs. Z. Haynes and Co.-GentIemen: /
have suffered for the last six years almost as
much as man could, with the Piles, and found
nothing that would give me any relief, until last
winter l began to taste of your Balsam in yolr
office, not once thinking it a remedy for my COM
plant. l continued to taste of it several times a
day, when 10! to my great delight found | was
getting well, and now l would not be without
your Balsam for great deal of money. l am
now enjoying better health than l have for the
last six years. You are at liberty to do with this
as you think best, hoping you may do much good
to the suffering.
Truly yours,
J. p. H. CUSHING.

E. Haynes and Co.-GentIemen On my arri-
val in New York last December, from Melbourne,
in the ship Patrick Henry, Captain Page, owing
to the poor food on board, found myself afflict-
ed with Scurvy, and l take pleasure in stating
that two applications of your Neurapathic Bal
sam, and taking half teaspoonful twice day
for two days has entirely cured me; it worked
like a charm. You may make such use of this
as you please.

E. Haynes and Co.-Gentlemen: My wife hav-
ing been troubled with Worms, seriously affect
ing her health, was advised to try your Neura-
pathic Basam, which l did, and found to my sur
prise it had the desired effect, driving them en-
tirey from her. l also tried it upon my child for
Group, with perfect success, and believe it the
best thing that can be given for either these COM
plants. You are at liberty to publish this if you

This term Is constantly used by
farmers in speaking of manures. 1t
is well to understand its derivation
and precise meaning. 1t is Of Arabic
origin. DR.. Dana says, that Kali is
the Arabic word for bitter, and al is
like our word super; we say fine and
superfne; so kali is bitter; alkali,
superlatively bitter, or, truly, alkali
means the "dregs Of bitterness"
Alkali is general term which in
cludes all those substances that have
an action like the ley Of wood ashes.
This ley boiled down, forms potash.
What is chiefly understood by the
term alkalies, means potash, soda and
ammonia. Potash is the alkali ofland
plants; sodais the alkali Of sea plants ;
and ammonia is the alkali of animal
substances.
Potash and soda are fixed; that is,
not easily raised invapor by fire. Am
monia always exists as vap0r unless
fixed by something else.
Lime, fresh Stacked, has the alkaline
properties Of potash, but weaker,-so
has calcined magnesia, but III less de-
gree than lime. Here are two sub
stances, earthly in their look, having
alkaline properties. They are called
therefore, alkaline earths. When the
tongue is touched with a bit Of quick
lime, it has a hot, burning, bitter taste
These are called alkaline properties
Besides these, they have the power o.
combining with and taking the sOul
out of all sour liquids anu actuo tnal
is, the acid and the alkali ncutralizC

EARLY MILKING.-Where COWS
are yarded over night, they require
early attention in the morning. If
kept late, before milking, they become
hungry and FESTIVE, and yield their
milk less freely than they would do
at an earlier hour. Never let them
look over the gate or fence an hour
or two in the morning waiting for the
appearance of the mixer. They
know the best time to commence
feeding, and should be allowed the
privilege Of improving it.
