A CHEAP AND GOOD SdoKHousE.-
A Western New York farmer publishes
his plan of small, cheap aud yet good
smokehouse, which, as it may contain
some practical hints for our readers, we
append it:
"No farmer should be without good
smokehouse, and such an one as will be

arch should be built on the outside, with
a small iron door to shut it up, similar to
a stove door, with hole from the arch
through the wall of the smokehouse, and
an iron CRATE over it. This arch is much
more convenient, and better to put the
fire in, than to build fire inside of the
smokehouse. Good corn-cobs or hickory
wood are the best material to make smoke
for hams. The cost of such a smoke
house as l have described is about $40,

must be gratifying to all his patients. He
examines, advises, and recommends without
charge, and the patient, after hearing his
terms for treatment. can accept or reject at
pleasure. In no case does the Doctor make
charge unless he effects cure. This he
