j. n. Harris q Co, Cincinnati, Ohio--Gentle-
men: heard one Of nay customers speak in such
high terms OF Aliens Lung Balsam to-day, thst
thought would write YOU the substance OF his
statements. He says his mother, who Is now
sixty ysars Of age, has SUFFERED with CONsUMP-
TON Ter SEVERAL YEARS. and has been under
the care OF az our best phgsiecns, but never re-
eeived any permanent benefit: then she resorted
to every kind OF Cough and Lung Balsam that
could be procured for her, bat all % dBail Shs
still grew worse, until she was confined to her
bed; and when she was seized with e par1xysm
OF coughing, she would lose tas pOCer Of respiTd-
ton, and they were compelled 70 resort to var
ious means to restore breathing: and while she
c0ughed 50 hard she could not expOrate anything,
aud the family and friends had given up all hopes
of her recovery. Her son noticed the advertise
ment OF Aliens Lung Balsam In the Chrissids
Adrocdfe, and they thought they would procure
and try 1t. They commenced giving her the Bal
sam at O'Clock Pm IS directed, dose every
hour until midnight; then she took another spen
of coughing, and sxpectOrated a mOuthfu5 Of
dark, yellow matter, which was something she
had not been able to do for some time. They con-
Gnued TO give her the Balsam until morning, ard
then she began TO expectOrate freely, and within
two hours she had ExPECTORATED Two PINTs Of
mucous matter, which gave her immediate Ee-
lief; and since that time she has continued %
improve. She now sits up all day, and can walk
about the house and take considerable outdoor
exercise. Her son bought more Of the Bals9m
to-day, and he Is recommending it very highly to
every one. Yours respectfully,

CELLAR WHITENING OF BEES.

Last winter we put our bees in the cellar
for the first time. We had tried vintering
in the loft of our shop, and we do not want
to repeat the experiment; outdoor winter
ing had pleased us very well; we had not
lost stand for two years in wintering our
bees on their summer stands, although
many bees would perish in each hive, and
large amount of honey would be consumed.
We confess that we had some misgiviDg in
relation to cellar wintering. We had heard
of so many failures, and such disastrous
results, that it took great deal Of courage
to deliberately place our bees in the cellar.
We left out few stands, so that in case of
failure we should bave enough to start with
in the spring.
1t was on the 9th of December that our
bees were put in. Not long after that time
there was sudden change in the weather,
such as is characteristic of this section.
All the bees on the outside combs in the
hives that were left out were frozen, and
after two or three such changes from warIl
to cold which happened during December,
we calculated that at least one-fourth of the
bees were dead in each hive that was left
out. The ground Immediately in front of
the hives was covered with dead bees, while
those in the cellar were all right. We do
not believe dozen bees had died in each
hive. We then put the balance of them in
the cellar, and they all went through the
winter in splendid order. No mould on the
combs, no dead bees of any consequence,
and very little honey consumed. Removed
them to their summer stands on the Sd of
March. There were only Two days during
the latter part of February that were warm
enough to affect the bees in the cellar;
very few came out and were lost. Our hives
were left in the cellar, with the summer en-
trance open, and the movable cover rails d
so as to give thorough ventilation at the
top. Last year being very poor honey
season, there was no profit to the bee-keep-
ers in this section, a very small increase of
stocks, and very little honey. There YVES
considerable done, however, in improving
our stock by way of introducing Italian
queens-if that can be said to be an i'm
provement. We have yet to see the Italian
bees that fill the bill of recommendations.
We are willing to pay any reasonable sum
for queen that will be warranted to pro-
duce progeny more dOcile than the black
bee, and we would like TO hear from any
one that has that kind. While it MAJ be a
fact that they store more honey, it is not
yet settled in my mind that they do not pill
fer it from their black neighbors.-Bee-

WHEATINT THE STATE.

Up to the setting in of the cold weathe
we never saw much finer prospect for
wheat. We have advices from all the north
tier of counties, and wherever the wheat
was well put in, whether sOwn broadcast on
land deeply broken, or drilled, the appear
ance at present is fattering for good yield.
The use of the drill by our farmers is rap
idly increasing, and as we are gratifed to
note, gives general satisfaction. The ur'
form depth to which the seed is deposited
ensures the termination of more grains,
while the regular distribution in the small
burrows gives plenty of room to the growing
plant and fewer seed are required. Putting
in with the drill also ensures it against
winter spews. The plants being in fur
row are fed by the crumbling sides when
thaws supervene and a harder growth is
secured.
Owing to the scarcity of seed wheat in
the State, not so much land as usual was
put in; but in almost every instance the
best has been sown. We trust our farmers
may realize a remUnerative yield and that
we shall not soon again witness the humiii-
ating spectacle of seeing Tennessee, one o.
the most fertile States in the Mississippi
Valley, sending abroad Tor her -four.

brown sugar, and quarter Of pound Of
cayenne pepper. Mis- these ingredients to-
gether, and rub the mixture on the meat
well and thoroughly, both on the skin and
flesh. Let it lie in the salt for five or six
weeks, hang up and smoke with green
hickory wood.
No. 3.-To every one hundred pounds of
pork take eight or nine pounds of G. A.
salt, two ounces of saltpetre, two pounds
brown sugar, one and and a half pounds
potash, and forty-eight gollons water. Mix
the above, and pour the brine over the meat
after it has laid in tub some two days. Let
the hams remain six weeks in brine, and
then dried several days before smoking.
The meat should be perfeetly cool before
packing, and rubbed with fine salt when
packed down.
CURING HAMs.-Mr. S. w. Ficklin, of
Charlottesville, Va, furnished the following
recipe for curing the hams, which he exhib-
tied at the Virginia Fair:
'For each hundred pounds Of ham, ten
pounds salt, two ounces saltpetle, two
pounds brown sugar, and one ounce red
pepper, and from four to four and a half
gallons of water, or just enough to cover
the hams after being packed in water-tight
vessel Cor enough salt to make brine to
float fresh egg high enough, or out of the
water.) From five to six weeks in brine,
hang up, smoke, and then put in papers and
bagged, with the hook turned down, and
hung till wanted. Boil till well DONE"

THE sECRErOF HAPPINESS.

An Italian bishop, who had struggled
through many difficulties without repining
and been much opposed without manifesting
Impotence, being asked by a friend to
communicate the secret of his being always
happy, replied: SIT consists in a single thing
and that is making use of my eyes," His
friends, in surprise, begged him to explain
his mean =. 'Most willingly" replied the
Bishop. an whatsoever state L am, first
of all look up to Heaven, and remember
that my great business is to get there;
look down upon earth, and call to mind
how small a space / shall soon fill in it
then look abroad in the world, and see
what multitudes are in all respect less hap
py than myself, and then learn how all
my cares must end, and how little reason
ever had to murmur, or to be otherwise
than thankful-and to live in this spirit is
TO be always happy"

THE FUTURE VALUE OF REAL
ESTATE.

The New York Bulletin expresses Il ,
opinion that those who so confidently calcu-
late upon the permanence of the present
high value of real estate, in city and cOun-
try. overlook some of the most essential
considerations afle, ing the questions. The
value of buildings and lands is dependent
on the condition of industry and commerce.
In the case of agricultural lands, their value
is determined by the price Of the produce
raised upon them. The value of business
buildings and dwellings is regulated by the
cost of the materials used in theft cOnstruc-
ton and the income ofthe occupants. How,
then. do these fundamental conditions of
value stand as compared with late years ?
The general imitation of the prices of all
kinds Of real estate during and follow
ing the war was natural consequence OF
the general imitation of war prices, and, be-
ing a consequence, it did not Immediately
follow the high prices of commodities: SC
also it must be with the decline, the IAN II
products occurring first and the deprecia-
ton of real estate following, perhaps tard.
lily, but with infallble certainty. When the
price of grain and of animal food doubled
from war influences, land naturally became
proportionately more valuable, and tn,
value of farms nearly doubled. Now, how
ever, we find prices Of leading agriculture
products approximating closely to thos
REVEALING before the war, as will appea

CURING MEAT.

The season for curing pork having ar
rived, we publish for the benefit of our
readers the following recipes, which have
been thoroughly tested:
No. Ito every Thousand pounds of
pork put one bushel of blown salt, and upon
each ham, before being salted, put tea
spoonful of saltpetre and one of the best
African cayenne pepper, and let the salt
petre and pepper be well rubbed in, and
then sailed and put into large tubs, and
after remaining in salt four weeks, taken
out, washed and hung up and smoked
from five to six weeks with good hickory
wood. The lady who furnished the above
saws she has dark meat-house, and suffers
h,r hams to hang up all the year round

Winter Wisdom.

Warm clothing alone will not protect th9 body
against the consequences Of the sudden depres
sion Of temperature which is cOncOmitant OF ear
ly winter. Flannel next the skin preserves the
animal heat, but it does not impart animal vigor
That property is thespecial prerogative OF Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, which is therefore a
specific protection sgainst majority OF the com
plants which are most common at this season.
For example, a course of the great vegetable in
vigorant, commenced now, Will be almost sure TO
preclude chills and fever, bilious collie, diScr ers
of the stomach, constipation, and many other
complaints which are often the direct or indirect
effect of an atmosphere surcharged with cold,
unwhOlesome vapOr. Moreover, the system toned
and regulated by this means Is much more likely
to resist pulmonary disease than 1t would other
wise be; for the influence of searching medicine
pervades all the organs, and every fiber and tbs
sue of the frame. Persons whose vital powers
are weak, especially invalid ladies and the aged,
are earnestly recommended not to face the win
ter's rigor without having recourse to this SAFE
and sufficient means Of reinforcing enfeebled
nature. Much suffering may be escaped, much
danger averted by following this counsel Better
