Ounce Culture.

A correspondent of the Germantown
Telegraph asks the following question
about ounces, which may with propriety
be asked of many farmers in this county /:
"Why do we not grow more of this
beautiful and delicious fruit, is ques-
tion often asked by horticulturists, but to
my mind has not been answered.
This fruit is always in large demand
and bears transportation well, while
choice ounces of the best varieties often
bring fabulous prices. In the city of
Poughkeepsie, New York, | have
seen farmers sell ounces for five dollars
per hunded by the wagon load, while for
miles around there could scarcely be a
better soil for the production of this
fruit; for while wealth and time and sci
ence have advanced the cultivation and
perfection of the other fruits to an aston
ishing degree, by some fatality this beau
tiful and favorite fruit has been sub
ject of neglect, and the culture it has re-
ceived, owing to the want of more per-
feet knowledge of the habits of the tree,
its adaptabitity to different Soils modes
of pruning, &c, has not been of the kind
best suited to its wants. The ounce de-
lights in moist soil, but it has generally
been consigned to some cold undrained
spot to take its chance with sedge and
break, and slow and messy growth with
knotty and inferior fruit is the inevitable
result.

Notes ut the Farmers Club.
Effects of Eating Bran.

j. Coleman asked "what probable
effect it would have if people should eat
the phosphate of lime found in their
wheat, instead of throwing the most of it
away as they now do in the barn?' DR..
Smith answered that two or three genera
tions hence the men would be taller and
the ,con,en 'could hare better teeth-some-
thing worth considering"
Rotation of Crops in Wisconsin.
Albert Long, of hartford, Wis, excepted
to the practice of former correspondent,
who having sown piece of grass, does
not plough the land again in less than
eight years" Mr.. Long prefers this system
of rotation namely, meadow, pasture,
corn, barley, wheat He believes if this
were adopted by the prairie farmers, it
would be greatly to their benefit, and
would actually enrich their land. Hehas
land (lately purchased) which has been
ploughed for twenty-five years inJ success
ion without manure or grass-seed, pro-
ducing, as near as he can get at it, eight
teen crops of wheat, two Of corn, and
two of oats. Last year it yielded at least
two tons of clover and timothy hay per
acre for the first crop. Now, he conten-
ded, if this land is kept in grass two
years in five hereafter, and all the hay
and straw made into manure and faith
fully returned to it, will it not grow
richer? There can be no question but it
will. Hence I would advise our Western
farmers to try this system of rotation
first, then if they think they can make it
profitable at the rate we are compelled
to sell beef cattle, to NOW their lands
sixteen years in succession, they may do
so.-HearM and Home.

pa TO beautify the teeth, dissolve
two ounces of borax in three pints of
boiling water, and before it is cold add
one teaspoonful of the spirits Of camphor
and bottle for use. A tablespoonful of
this mixture, mixed with an equal guam
tity of tepid water, and applied daily
with soft brush, preserves and beauti-
fies the teeth, extirpates all tartarous ad-
hesion, arrests decay, induces healthy ac-
ton of the gums, and makes the teeth
pearly white.

Bas~ When red clover is plowed under
to renovate the soil, and when the crop
is good, the clover roots and stubble, with
barn-yard manure will furnish all the
vegetable matter needed in the soil, while
in feeding clover hay, ammonia is passed,
and may be saved in the manure SO that
on good land, where all is we'll managed,
and the clover sod plowed up while yet
in full vigor so as to secure the largest
benefit from the large mass Of roots, near
ly the full benefit of the clover crop may
be had, both for feeding and for making
manure.

nsy~ 1t has been stated that about

nelyn 1t has been stated that about a
hundred and thirty years since, Scotch
man invented the cast iron mould board
which was a marked improvement ON the
wooden one, and after this the plow hold
ers seem to have remained content for
half a century, when an English invent
or gave new start to their ideas of pro-
gress by bringing out plow with cast
iron share. Sixty years after this an
American produced plow having cast
iron land slide and mould board and a
wrought iron or steel share.

B9~ Many persons in preparing pota-
toes for cooking, pare off a thick slice
from the surface. Professor Blot, in his
lecture on the potato, says the skinning
process is all wrong, as the strength of
the vegetable lies near the surface-the
starch growing less abundant as the cen
tire is approximated. The starch near
the suface contains the nutriment, which
is not more than seven or eight per cent,
the balance being merely water.

Rev. Francis Mason, Tounghoo Birmah:
NY son was taken violently sick with dip

throat very white, and his tongue toward the
root looked like watermelon full of seeds; the re-
mainder coated as thick as knfe-blade So many
children have died around here, was afraid to
call physician, and thought would try your Pain
Killer for a gargle with small doses inwardly. l
did so and found the gargie invariably cut OIL the
yescices and he raised them up often covered with
blood. He was taken on Sunday: on Wednesday
his throat was clear and his tongue rapidly clearing
off, also used it as liniment with castor oil and
hartshorn for his neck. 1t seemed to me WOn-
derful cure and can but wish it could be known
to the many poor mothers in our land who are los-
ing so many poor children by this dreadful disease

valuable medicines ever used in Burmall once 1
wa, stung by a very large black scorpion the pain
was indescrbable. Immediately applied the Pain
Killer (for never travel without it,) again and
again, and in half an hour my foot was well.
Dr. Walton writes from Coshocton-" Your Pain
Killer cures this new disease-Dipthertd, or Sore
Tnroat-that is so alarmngly prevalent here; and
it has not been known to fail in any instance when
used in time. This fact you should make known to
the world" ct is used in this disease as gargle
and lotion as well as 4 tonic and a Stimulant
In Halifax where this disease prevailed for 50
many months in its most malignant form, the use
OF Perry Darts " Pain KULer' was invariably at
tended with the most favorable results whenit was
used ere the disease had made too much progress
to preclude the use of so powerful stimulant.

Ihey are on Cedar creek, 43 miles below this

claims were recorded on the Sd of December

tains about 1900 inhabitants, of whom quite
number are from Wala Walla, w. T. This.
Frenchtown, if you remember the Commissary
at old Browns, is on the creek, one mile from
Browns. Missoula Mills are at Rattlesnake
creek, near the mouth of Hellgate canyon.
We have already a daily line of stages from
Missoula to Frenchtown, and saddle train
from there to Cedar Junction, on Cedar creek,
) miles from its mouth. There is another town
near the discovery, about ID miles from the
mouth of Cedar creek, called Louisville. In
the neighborhood of the discovery the claims
are from ) to feet deep, with soft bedrock
