H. T. HELMBOLD claims a superior
mode Of extracting its virtues. Tho expert
ments were made while engaged in the drug
business in the city Of Philadelphia nineteen
years ago, prompted BY the alarming increase
Of diseases Of the bladder, kidneys, gravel
and urinary organs existing in both sexes
These diseases we're attracting as much atten'
ton a. diseases Of the liver or any other or
gan Of the body. Upon tho sound and
healthy condition Of these organs the nervous
system and liver were involved, and the hap
piness Of the entire human family depended.
The Buchu, acting fovorably upon both
liver and kidneys, to prepare IL so that It
would retain It's strength and active principle
was his aim. II must not Be made as house
keepers mako tea, BY boiling. It Is a deli
cate leaf, and It's active principle would be
destroyed BY such . process. 1t must 30
prepared in vAcUo, and Of the long leaf,
fresh and carefully selected.

Democratic and Conservative voters of New Cas-

their candidate for the Sherlalty, from among so
many other gentlemen, whose names were pre-

1t would afford him great pleasure to visit his

REVIVAL OF PEACH TREES.

A discovery of no small moment in the
interests of agriculture has been made by
DIR. George B. Wood, and communicated
by him to the American Philosophical So
ciety, of which he is President. Peach
trees in this vicinity, after producing
few crops, not only cease bearing but per-
ish themselves in short time whereas,
their natural life is so or 60 years, or
more. The cause of this defective power
of growth is believed by DR.. Wood to be
owing to deficiency of potash in the soil,
and he assures US that if this alkali be
supplied to the tree so that it shall reach
the small roots and be absorbed the fruit
bearing power is restored, and the tree it
self, if prematurely pcrishing, is revived.
Believing with most persons that the cause
of the decay lay in worms at the root of
the peach tree, he put in operation plan
which he had seen his father perform more
than fifty years before, viz: of digging
around the base of the stem hole four or
five inches deep, scraping away all the
worms that could be found at the junction
of the stem and roots and filling the hol-
lows thus made with fresh wood ashes
lTOlu Inc nlc, WnlCu, Vi cOuFSc, retained
all their potash. This was done in the
autumn of 1868; and with result, il
the following spring, at which he was
himself astonished. The trees appeared
to have been restored to all their early
freshness and vigor; they put forth brigh
green leaves, blossomed copiously, anc
bore a crop of fruit such as they had ncv
er borne before, many of the branche
breaking down under the load of tn,
peaches. DIR. Wood, in rejecting OF
these results, and noticing that several 0
the peach trees treated had no worms
came to the conclusion that we must lool
for an explanation to some other caus
than the destruction Of few worms, ant
this cause he believes to be the ashes, th
potash of which being dissolved by th
rains, had descended along the root to tn
rootlets, and presented to them the yer,
food for the want of which they were dy
ing. Decaying apple trees bearing stint
ed and inedible fruit have been revived b
"a similar process, and with the like re
suits. All of DR.. Woods orchards Civ

STRAWBERRIES IN NEW YORK.

The New York Tribune, in speaking of
the berry season in that city, gives the
following facts concerning strawberries:
OF all the fruits which come to our
market the strawberry ranks highest in
popularity and pecunary value for it re-
quires no educated taste to appreciate its
delicious flavor. 1t is generally supposed
that the first berries of the season grow in
the South and many will be surprised to
learn that Boston, instead of Georgia,
gets the S14 quart for the first lots sent
to this city. On the 18th Of last Fcbrua-
ry about a pint of this popular fruit was
received by Broadway store. The de-
mand for strawberries in mid-winter is
not usually great, but when prices are
not more than from S. to $40 per quart
the poorer classes of the woll-to-do "aris-
tocracy" make the market lively. The
consumptive Lillian who is about to wed
the rheumatic Augustus, intimates to
"papa" that she would like to have some
fruit for her nuptial tea. Papa, who is a
broker, calls in at the family wine-store
ON his way to Babel, and orders three
pints of Wilson's Albany Seedlings to be
sent to his residence. The little bill of
1921 is paid without murmur, though the
indulgent parent cannot help thinking that
horticulture must be profitable occupa-
tion. The strawberries which come from
Boston are produced under glass. When
the Georgia strawberries begin to appear
they readily sell for from So to $3 u
quart. The strawberry season proper
commences about the 10th of May. At
this time they are chiefly from the gardens
of Norfolk, Va. The usual price for the
first of these is about 81 SO quart The
demand is not large until they are selling
at rs cents.

Russell Separators.

1t is impossible for us, in this brief notice. to
speak of all the points of utility and excellence
embraced in these machines and must content
ourselves with mere mention of a few of them,
and invite you to examine the machine. We
will furnish either the open or closed cylinder,
spiked with the very best of iron. The cylinder
shaft is made of steel, and fitted with brass boxes
lined with the best Babbit metal. The gear
shafts are made Of steel, and run in boxes lined
with Babbit metal. The gearing is made of the
best of charcoal iron, and fitted in the best posi-
Bile manner The cylinder is perfectly adjusted,
by men Of long experience, The cylinder cap is
so constructed that the cylinder will not throw
dust into the face of the feeder. The grain-car-
rier is ten inches wider than the cylinder, afford
ing ample room to obtain u perfect separation.
The revolving knocker in the second carrier is Of
great value in securing the grain, The double
fam will clean grain of all kinds i'll the most per-
feet manner without waste. The revolving and
vibrating shoe-rakes are very useful in prevent
ing the choking or filing up Of the shoe and ele-
vator. The arrang cement for raising and lower
ing the concave is very simple and easily opera
ted. The scli-oiling and noiselesS shake-rods
for the shoe and elevator spout, must be seen to
be appreciated. The small shafts are II a le OF
good iron, the Journals turned, polished, and
fitted in the boxes perfectly. The boxes are lined
with Babbt metal, and fitted with oil cups and
caps to keep out the dust. The pulleys are made
of cas-iron, covered with leather to prevent
slipping. The belts are Of good oak-tanned leath-
er, well stretched, ccmented and riveted together

Double Pinion HORSEPOWER,
WITH RUSSELL PATENT MovEABLE cENTEI

Russell's Improved Double Pinion eight and
ten-horse Cary Power, with movable centre, has
long been in use, during which time it has with
stood the most severe tests, and for light draft,
strength and durability, it has no equal. The
movable centre, is Of great value, for by its use
master pinons, so as to divide the labor equally
thus overcoming friction, and removing to great
extent the liability to break by sudden jerks or
starts of the horses. The and horse power is
essentially the same as the eight and ten, except
in size.
The spring coupling fork is now attached TO
the line Shaft of the power, and is made with Il
reversible dog, by taking. off the coupling fork
and changing the dog, the horses may travel eli
ther to the right or left.

County Government Again.

Tie bill which abolished the present
system of county government, also re
vived the old system-but only so far as
relates TO the representation of towns
A supplementary act was immediately
passed, however, which applies chiefly
to villages and cities. 1t repeats ell local
and municipal laws conflicting with tie
system of county government soon to be
inaugarated, aud 10y it also, each ward
of a city, and each incorporated village
is entitled 10 representative in the
county board. But they are to be elect
ed as county supervisors-the senior al
derman of each ward not acting as su
peryisor as was formerly the case under
the old system.
This act was passed at the last moment
under a "dead head" title, 10 conse-
quence of which it can hardly become
gensra'ly known throughout the state in
time for the election next Tuesday.
