VE7iIE simplicity and practcabiiity of this new
II Plow compends it favoraby the special
| notice of eycrypfarmer. 1t possesses II decided
| superiority all other plows now in use. The
wheels four feet in diameter, and run the
unplowea land It's entire construction is in no
way complicated. The plow is managed in every
manner with ease. and requires only two levers
to be used in making any alteration. The supc-
riority of the CLAY Pow will be clearly shown
by the following certificate
We, the undersigned. citizens Of Linn county.
Oregon, having purchased aud used upon our
farms the Gay Plow, hereby certify that the
same has given entire satisfaction. Its sfaclity
for adjusting to suit the depth of furrow without
moving from the seat is simple and easy. We
like the plow for its draught, because the same is
brought to bear directly upon the plow-beam in
stead of the carriage: also, because it is strong
and durable, all except the woodwork being con-
structed of wrought iron-no cas tings used.
The wheels running upon the solid land is an ad-
vantage over other gang plows, in striking off
land and in plowing, not having to make the nee
essary changes in the machinery, and the scat is
always level. not thr wing the driver forward
sideways as in other plows. Better work and
more of it can be accomplished by the use of this
Plow than by hand.
We take pleasure in recommending the, "G AY''
PLow to our brother farmers. as one having no
superior in Oregon.

Improving Garden Soil.

1t must not be forgotten that every
plant, however small or feeble takes
something from the richness of the
Surrounding earth. In order, there
fore, to keep up the the fertility of
the garden without incurring annual
expense for fertilizers, it is well to
have an out-of way corner where
withered plants, refuse vegetables, the
litter from poultry houses, bones,
ashes, sawdust, SCOT, movings Of grass,
dead leaves, and all such things,
may be thrown. This compost heap
should be under cover; and if care
be taken TO store all refuse materials
there the result will be a good guam
tity of vegetable manure-the best
fertilizer for flower garden and orch,
ard in the following spring. Before
it is used, have some fresh lime,
slakod with brine till it falls TO powder
springfield over the compost, which
should be turned over two or three
times, and it is then ready for use
mixed with double its quantity Of
carth.- Farmers Home journal.

Protection Against Drought.

The best protection against drought
that can be practiced to great OK
tent with advantage, is stirring the
earth frequently to keep it light,
loose and mellow. Observation and
experiments on the subject have de-
monstratcd the good effects Of stirring
the soil in dry time in most strik-
ing manner. When land that had
not been plowcd nor stirred in any
way was dry down ten inches, and
there scarcely any moisture could be
perceived, land by the side of it,
plowed and frequently hood, was
moist within a few inches of the top
in a very severe drought. The earth
should not be drawn up around the
plants, to make high hills, but should
be broken around them with hoe
This treatment will be found very
beneficial to corn or potatoes, in case
of drought.

Clover and Timothy.

A. Hadley, in q communication to
the Nopthwcstern Farmer, gives
what he regards as three important
reasons why clover should always be
grown with timothy. First, the clover
being tap-rooted penetrates deeply,
stands drought, mcllows the soil, and
the timothy grows much stronger
and holds up the clover. Secondly,
if sown for pasturage, the timothy
almost universally prevents the clover
from swelling cattle. Thirdly, hay
IS too binding, especially for cattle,
and clover too washy, (succulent)
hence both together are better than
either alone.
TO these, the Country Gentleman
adds under the head of the first, that
where grass comes in rotation, it is
of the utmost Importance on clay
soil, that at leasta part of this grass be
clover. 1t will serve to mellow and
loosen the heavy soil in a remarkable
degree, so that when turned over with
pillow, it will not be rich, but loose
and friable. If, on the other hand
timothy alone is sown (Which some dc
because the hay sells betterD the sod
will turn over heavy and ,clpmmy
and be unfit for any crop which is tc
follow. The same correspondent says
that he is partial to rye for calf OIL
sheep pasture, which he occasionally
sows in the summer or autumn, after
crop of corn; and then, after pas
tured it is turned under for spring
crop-corn, if the soil be stron.
enough-or it may be allowed to g
tc harvest.

The Turnlp Fly.

The Toronto Globe suggests that
one of the best means Of saving a
field Of turnips from the ravagcs OF
this pest is to SOW radish seed
amongst the turnips. Many suppose
that the insect has a preference for
this kind of food over that of the
turnip plant, and that as the radisho'
generally start before the turnips, the
worst of the ravagc is committed on
the broad leaves Of the radish rather
than on the turnip, thus saving the
latter.

rrIIE proprietor OF this celebrated mcdi-
II cine Justly claims for IL n superiority
over all ever offered to the public for the
safe, certain, speedy and permanent euro
of Ague and Fever, or Chills and Fever,
whether of short or long standing. He
refers to the entire Western and South
western country to bear him testimony TO
the truth of the assertion that In no case
whatever will IL tnil 10 cure, If the direc-
tons are strictly followed anu carried out.
In great many cases n single dose has
been sufficient for q cure, and whole fami
lies have been cured by single bottle,
with n perfect restoration of the general
health. 1t is, however, prudent, and in
every case more certain to euro, III its use
Is continued In smaller doses for week or
two after the disease has been checked,
more especially In difficult and long stands
ing cases. Usually, this medicine will not
require any other to keep the bowels In
good order; should the patient, however,
require cathnrtic medicine after having
taken three or four doses of the Tonic, u
single dose of Butts Vegetable FumilU IiNs
will be sufficient.
