There is no mystery about the causes of its

The Bitters have this distinctive quality,

Most BitterS

Of the present day that are loudly pulled
through the newspapers as having great tonic
and curative properties are vile compounds and
base impOsitions, containing ne medicinal vir'
tues whatever, and are really very poor whisky
beverages; and instead of acting as a stimulant
and tonic, have a tendency to weaken the stom.
ach by entirely destroying the coating. The
public should therefore be very cautious, and
purchase none but ROJackS Stomach BitterS,
which have stood the test as a remedial agent
for many years, and are really, as their name
indicates, stomach bitterS and not a beUerdge
They combine the properties of the best tonic
and stimulant-a gentle laxative, an efficient
anti.biliOus agent and the best stOlnacAic known
to the world, and, when taken in conjunction
with RObdck'S Blood Pills are the safest aud
surest preventive against all bilious derange
mentS, thoroughly regulating the whole system
and giving tone to the digestive organs.
They are highly recommended as an invigor'
ating tonic to mothers while nursing, increas-
ing the flow of milk. and for convalescents, To
restore the prostratioR which always follows
long continued sickness, they are unsurpassed.
No household should consider themselves safe
from the ordinary maladies without these inval.
liable medicines. They can be obtained of any
druggist in the United States. marl3.lm

The term originated from the fact that
Mr.. Adams could not be present at the
Queens late reception because his gov

not admit him with long ores. His alb

Potato Growing.

A correspondent communicates to the
Rural World the following:
Suppose l wanted to raise large
crop of early potatoes, for shipping or
early home market, would select new
land il could, or an old meadow, with
the sod plowcd long enough to be rot
ten az the next best, or land Sin good
heart" from previous manuring as the
last. would plow, harrow and pre-
pare il as thoroughly as possible the
fall previous, so that if it did not happen
to be dry enough to pillow in the spring,
and got chance to plant without, l
would do it. Next, / would select an
early maturing variety, and the first
thing did on the land in the spring,
would be to plsntAmy potatoes-even
in February if could, and
not later than the first of March under
any circumstances Il write for this lati
tude only), and to obviate any danger
of the sets getting frozen, would cover
by blowing a furrow from both sides,
buryiug them six or eight inches deep,
to be narrowed down afterward. Just
as soon as they make their appearance,
or little before, harrow thoroughly,
and as the weather warns mp commence
to cultivate them, aiming to keep the
ground level. Keep it up necessarily
and well, and just as long as it can be
done without injnry to tops or tubers.
Then ridge slightly, as late as possible;
keep them going and growing 'fast and
furious" until the crop is made; then dig
and mai ket at once and have done with
them.
Fer the main crop for winter pota.
toes, or for early varieties to keep over
winter for seed, would trust to the
chances of late planting, satisfied that
take one year with another, | could |
make . good crop by SO doing. Take |
the month of June (say about the mid>
dle) as on the average, the best time; |
pillow and harrow, again and again, i'll
necessary, to get a good filth; plant
we'll. and commence TO cultivate in the |
best manner az soon as mp; and if drOuth
intervenes, as it generally does, Guilt
vate just 80 as to keep the top growing
and green until rain comes. The Peach
Blow is the best variety we have for
growing along that know Of.
When they have started afresh, treat
them as recommended in spring, and
clay by" Us late as possible; keep up q
rapid growth in the potato, and keep
down grass and weeds until neither
can terminate any more, then you may
relax your efforts. / think by this plan
we can have clean potato fields, SO that
we can use potato diggers, if overland,
nine seasons out of ten, all other things
being equal, l Believe by this plan, we
can raise good crops of potatoes.

The mystery of the murder of H.
Cohen, in Pomeroy, Ohio, on the 9th
ult., has not yet been solved. The coro'
ner's jury declared in their verdict that
the deceased came to his death by a

Cohen. The latter was arrested, and,
after a hearing before the Mayor, was
discharged. The conduct of the exam
lining officer in the case is severely CEN
sured by the local paper.

The Point Of Success in Applying
Manure.

The great point to be considered IL
the application of raw manure is It's
speedy fermentation. This is effected
readily by surface application, in whic h
case il undergoes decomposition in i
short time. The sun has a direct effect
upon it, which causes this. 1t is hence
that surface application is so highly
beneficial, for without decomposition
there is little benefit in manure; it is a
hindrance rather. But, the heat de-
composing, and the rains washing it in,
the work is done.
The next best thing, if not equally
good, and even better perhaps, is to APP
ply on the surface of pleughed ground
and harrow in. This mixes it with the
top soil exposed to the direct rays OF
the sun, the soil increasing, if anything,
the heat, and this, in connection with
the increased moisture, increasing aud
acceleratiDg the fermentation. This
practice never fails. 1t is always found
to be good-and good whether the ma
nure is rotted or lot, providing it can
be properly mixed with the soil.
The secret in beth these cases is, that
the sun has its effect. Ploughed in
deep, there is different resnlt-not
always successful, especially in cold
soils, or i'll wet seasons. Heat, and a
proper hygremetric condition are nee
essary.
This, then, is the secret, that we must
expose our manures to heat; and the
nearer the surface, the more heat and
the more fermentation. We have had
our best success with manure narrowed
in. On meadows, top dressing is the
only way; aud the time of application
it is agreed, is the fall or latter part OF
the summer, when the heat has still its
effect, and the rains help it.
But deep ploughing under will keep
the manure as it goes into the ground,
and will put it, if left there, out of the
reach of the grasses and light-rooting
grains. 1t is simply hid. It can be OF
benefit (deep in the ground) only when
the soil is porous and of sandy and
dark OF heat-attractiug nature, and the
season a warm one. In such summers
we have known the best of effect, where
long manure was plentifuly used, and
made bed for the roots of Indian corn,
or roots.

disqualification. There may be some
loss, which may not be the case where
the ground covers the manure. But
narrowed in we'll, ifnot too long, or
ploughed shallow--a mere covering
up where there is much strsw-and
there will be certain and immediate
benefit; immediate ifapplied in the heat
