Sheep Farming In Turkey.

The British Consul at Adrianople
gives some interesting details of the
sheep and goat farming in that villa
yet. He gives the number of sheep
at 4,512,000, and of goats at 77S,000,
the tax on which at the rate of four
piasters each, yielded l.19l, 297 in.
1867. Nevertheless it is estimated
that 20 per cent profit is obtained by
sheep husbandry. The tax produ-
ced l.10, 500 more in the year 1857
than in the previous year, and for
the. last ten years there appears to
have been steady increase in the
number of sheep.
The popularity of the shepherds
work in this district is the process of
milking the sheep and goats, large
quantities of butter and cheese being
made from the milk of these animals
and sent into Constantinople, whence
also the sheep and lambs are sent
from the district or villayet of Adri-
anople for local consumption. The
total cost of flock consisting of
1,S00 ewes, $50 rams and so goats,
is stated to be 10000 plasters, the
cost Of keep, &C., being 81, 600 pias-
ters, and the total value of produce,
exclusive of the skins, 56,91O pias-
ters-112 piasters being equal to II.
sterling. There is an active market
fer the skins of the lambs and goats,
which are salted and packed for the
French and English market.
The two prominent breeds, which
are considered by the natives as dis
tincHy local, are the Kavirjik, which
bears some affinity to the demi- Me-
rinos, and the Karabash, which are
black faced, and not unlike the sheep
in Macedonia and Thessaly The
wool of the former is most esteemed,
being long, soft and elastic, and
twisted in ringlets, which gives the
name to the breed.-Lsndon Field.

XENIA, O, Feb. 9, 1866.
Messrs Stout, Mills & Temple.-Gents-We
are using three of your American Turbine
Water Wheels, which we have put in
our Mill within the last eighteen months
We consider them as being the best wheels
in use. We can grind cut forty barrels of
-four per day to each wheel with five foot head
and fall. which is four times the quantity we
could make with any ordinary wheel. As
for strength we have tested them thoroughly,
hard pieces of wood getting in them, but
never breaking them in the least. In conclu-
sion we will say that they fully fill the bill
as represented to us before purchasing.
Yours truly.

Hew To Peel Peaches.

AS the time for putting up peaches
will soon be here, we have procured,
from lady friend, the following re-
cipe for peeling peaches, which we
conhdentially recommend to our lady
readers.
First get the peaches. then take a
kettle of very strong lye, and heat
to boiling, take wire cage, similar
to a corn popper-fill it with peaches
and dip it into the lye for a moment.
Then into cold water. With coarse
towel wipe each peach, and the rind
will peel off smoothly; then drop into
fresh cold water, and the operation
is complete. You need have no fear
Of injuring the flavor of the peach

Bots.

BIZ j. Resg, VETERINARY sUReEoN.
Much has been said about bots 10
horses. but much, / think, to no pur-
pose. NV experience warrants .he
following conclusions: Many a nne
berse has been killed by Ignorant
farriers. who treated the animal with
tbe belief that bots were eating
through the stomach, when they
were not annoying the horse atall-
he laboring under some other dis
ease. Because a horse paws and
rolls, lies down and gets up frequent
ly, it is generally supposed that he is
troubled with bots, and the poor
brute is dosed accordingly. The do
sing, with all the popular remedies,
one forced dowr after the other, Of
ten produces death.
Twelve years experience has de-
monstrated to my satisfaction tnat IL
is natural for horse to have bots,
as it is for him to b ave a tail, and
quite as necessary to his health. l
do not believe that more than one
horse out Of FIVE thousand dies from
the effects of bots. In many cases
horses are treated for bots when an
experienced surgeon would discover
the true cause of pain, and prescribe
the proper remedy. Itdoes not go
to prove that because the horse paws,
and lies down, and rolls, and looks
at his fanks, &C., that the bots are
troubling him. The same symptoms
prevail in flatulent collie, spasmodic
collie, infiammatory collie, and infam-
nation of the bladder. 1t is very
easy, then, to be mistaken in regard
to the disease. Toe many of our
farriers have "bots on the brain"
and too. many horses are dosed to
death under the suppositien that
they have the bots, when careful
examination and careful treatment
for the proper disease would save
them.-Farnser's Chronicle.

Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of the Throat and Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
COUGH. Bronchitis, Asthma,

For Diseases OF the Tnroot ana Lungs,
such as Coughs, Colds, Whooping
Couch. Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Probably never before in the whole history of
medicine has any thing won SO wldeiy and SO deeply
nnon the coincidence of mankind, as this excellent
remesiy for pulmonary complaints. Through long
series of wears, and among most OF the races Of
men II has risen higher and higher In their estima-
tion a. II has become better known. Its uniform
character and power 20 cure the various affections
OF the lungs and throat, have made i known as re-
liable protector against them Whiie adapted TO
mder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most ehectua remedy that
be given for incipient consumption, and the dan
reJpus affections of the throat and lungs As pro
Vision against sudden attacks of Group, il should
be kept on hand in every family, and indeed as all
are sometimes subject TO colds and coughs, all
should be provided with this antldote for them.
Although settled Consumption Is thought in
curabe still great numbers OF cases where the dis
ease seemed settled, have been completely cured,
and the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry PecforaJ. SO complete Is Its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat that
the most obstinate of them yield to it. When moth
ing else could reach them, under the Clterry Pee
foraI they subsifie and disappear
SissQers and Public Speakers find great pro-
lection from it.
Asfhnsa is always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Bronchit;s is generally cured by taking the
Cherry PectorGt in small and frequent doses,
So generally are its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them here or do more
than assure the public that its qualities are fully
maintained.
