TO Prevent Files Attacking Horses
and Other Animals.

There Is a recipe to be found in a
hook called the Farmers Recipe
Book, TO secure horses and other
animals against the attacks of flies,
which wa re-pablish at.this season ia
toe hope that those employed about
horses will be induced to try its eilica-
ey:
take two or three small handfuls
of walnut leaves, upon which
pourtwo or three quarts ofcold wa
ter; let it infuse ono night, and pour
the whole uext morning into a kettle
and let il hoil for a quarter Of an hour
when cold it will be fit for use No
more is required than to moisteh a
sponge and before the horse goes out Of
the stable, let those parts which are
most irritable be smeared over with
the liquor, VIZ: between and upon the
ears, the neck, flank, etc. Not only
the lady or gentleman who rides out
for pleasure will derive benefit from
the walnut leaves thus prepared, but
the coachman, tho WAGNER, and all
others who use horses during the hot
uIonths."

Agritmltural.
ImpOrtant 10 TOhacc0 Ralsers.

The Dyersburg (Tenn.1 Gazette
contains the following, which may be
valuable to those Of our farmers who
are growing tobacco:
If you will plant a few jamestown
weeds in your tobacco fields, and
will sweeten with good sugar one
pint of water and then put one ounce
of cobalt into the water, and then
drop four drops of this mixture into
the bloom of the jamestown weed,
you can kill every tobacco fly on
your place ere they hatch worms.
So says Mr.. William Moore, of this
county, who has tried it for many
years, with the most gratifying re-
suits. By destroying this pestiferous
fly, you can raise your tobacco crop
with one tenth the labor and atten-
ton now required. Try il.

Johns mouth was like a hopper
And stirred the hre, and sp7inkled salt,
And shook and shook tho pepper.
The clock struck nine, the clock struck ten.
Aud still the corn kept popping;
1t struck eleven, and then struck TWELVE,
And still No signs Of stopping.
