Genis-Thc wonderful cures which have
been made by your Pou!terer's Friend cannot
fail to interest all who raise poultry. A.-genue
man Of this village has been experimenting on
chickens with the gaqcs. He tried your Poul-
terers Friend, according to the directions, and
it had the desired effect in removing the worm,
eiIectually relieving the chickens at once. Since
then have had many calls for it, and II has
been used extensively with the same result. 1t
is of ncslculable value 10 all who raise poultry.

Growing Onions.

The high figures at which onions have been
sold the past season will probably induce more
extended cultivation of this most valuable OF
vegetables. The most successful onion grower,
ON a somewhat limited scale, we ever saw, kept
his. ground in high filth, forming deep, rich
bed for the seed. The sell was thoroughly stir.
red to the depth of foot or more, and finely
pulverized When thus prepared, the party
commenced tramping across the beds in the line
of the extended rows, thus completing the soil
quite hard.
This done, rake was used to stir up or scarf
fy the surface sufficiently deep to cover the onion
seed lightly. or to assure its termination. In
thus tramping the onion beds down. after the So
has been properly stirred and prepared, them
ion thrown, during the period Of its g1wth'
upon the surface, causing it to expand y.h more
freedom than would have been the car. IL cover

of planting and cultivation was tb( most prOiinc

This mode pursued year ster v year, ana with

Lived two hours and forty minutes. Iput the

corn, soaked twenty.four hours in half a gill
Of turpentine, came up and grew vigorously,
untouched by the wire worms, while that un-
