gloss aud freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and badness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are de- stroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed; but such as remain can be saved by this application, and stimu- lated into activity, so that a new growth of hair is produced. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi- ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling of, and consequently prevent badness. The restoration of vitality it gives to the scalp arrests and prevents the forma- tion of dandruff, which is often so un- cleanly and offensive. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and inju- rious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy lustre, and a grateful perfume.

There are numerous varieties of true

it is dark-brown and scaly. Sometimes,
on being cut or broken, the mushroom

takes place. To sum up, il is to be OBJ

Green Food for Stock.

We are not inclined to take a gloomy
view of the future or predict an unpro-
pitious season for farmers. But il is al
ways a safe plan to be ready for whatever
may come, and we therefore urge the i'm
pOrtance of preparing for drought dur
ing the coming season. 1t may not come,
and food for stock may be abundant dur
ing our dryest and hottest months; but if
more food is raised than needed for i'm
mediate use it will keep until wanted
We seldom have season in which pas
turage is not occasionally short and cattle
fail to procure bountiful supply of the
food necessary to keep them in good con-
dition.
To make up any deficiency that may
possibly occur, every owner of stock
should SOW a quantity of some rapid
growing grain that will be in suitable con-
dition to feed to stock during the sum-
mer.
Mich cows in particular often suffer
| for the proper amount and kind of green
food during the months of July and Au-
gust, but by sowing even a small area at
the present time with corn, millet, or
some similar rapidly growing but nutri-
| tious plant, no lack of food need occur.
If the season should prove to be a moist
one, and pasturage abundant, then these
crops may be cured for winter use, and a
corresponding amount of hay or grain
sold.
1t is only by adopting some such sys-
TEN that scarcity of food can be avoid
ed at all times, and when farmer can
take his choice among a variety of for
age plants he can save money by selling
that which is in the greatest demand,
and which commands the best price.
Hay and oats are staple articles, always
bringing ready cash; but there are many
more economical plants that man can
cultivate for his own stock. Corn fodder
when grown thiclzly together in masses,
and cut at the proper season and well
cured, is worth at least half as much per
ton as good meadow hay; but 1t does not
cost ene-quarter as much, and five times
the quantity can be produced per acre.
Sweet corn is far better for this purpose
than common field corn, and some of the
varieties of popcorn are excellent on ac
count of their slender stalks.
Let every stock raiser prepare Tor a
scarcity of forage in summer, and We are
sure they will us for the hint before
the snow falls next winter.-Nei0 York

WINNING GOLDEN OPlNIoNs-Perhaps
no man living has won more golden opln-
ions than DR.. Walker, as the enormous
and widely increasing sale of his Cali
foTnia Vinegar Bitters attests. We
never look into one of our exchanges,
but there is panegyric of the
Bitters staring us in the face Our
readers will say that there must be a
reason for all this praise. They are right
The efficacy of this celebrated medicine
is established by evidence which it is
impossible to doubt. Among the thou
sands who have borne testimony to its
excellence, there is not one dissentient
voice. In very many phases of inorganic
disease it seems to be unfailing. All dis
eases arising from vitiated state of the
blood are surely eradicated by it. 1t is
an eliectual remedy for pulmonary COM
plants, bilious, remittent and intermit-
tent fevers, Thumatism and dyspepsia.
1t purges the body of all unhealthy hui
mors, gives tone to the system, and where
the vital powers are enfeebled, restores
their functions to vigorous and healthy
action. All this it does the more effectii-
ally because its operation is not interfered
with by the presence of alcohol. The
Vinegar Bitters is perfectly free from any
such hurtful ingredient. We have always
believed that plants contained the true
remedies for disease, and all the remedies
necessary. DR.. Walker is on the line of
real progress, and we hope that he will
not rest on his present discoveries.

Distinguishing Edible Mushrooms.

A writer in the English Mechanic gives
what he considers 10 be an invalable rule
for distinguishing the true mushroom from
the poisonous species. He remarks, in
the first place, that the true mushroom is
invariably found in rich, open pastures,
and never on or about stumps or in woods;
and, although wholesome species some
times occurs in the latter localities the
writer considers II better to avoid their
products. A very good point, in the
second place, is the peculiar intense purple
brown color of the spore. dust, from which
the ripe mushroom derives the same color
