Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to it's youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishcs
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and consider it the BEST PRErA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

One EFFECT OF THE HARD TIMES.
1T is noticed that the financial press
ure Of the last year has had its infu-
ence upon the value Of horses ut
least fancy and coach horses. The de-
clining surplus in each house, holders
pocket, who has been in the habit Of
keeping horses, has led him to think
that it might be better to get rid Of
this burden. As consequence we
learn that horses are much slower ii
sale than they were one year ago. A
horse which then sold for $500 will
not now command more than $235, and
farmers who have kept first-class horses
finding that the low price Of produce
during the past year has not given
them sufficient means Of support, are
new Offering these horses for sale, and
this, Of course gluts the market. The
truth is, horses are a luxury to be
maintained only by those who have
ample incomes. The inc ~casing wealth
Of the people during the past ten years
has caused a large demand for good
horses. But as many Of US are COM
ing down t. the hard pm, that is our
incomes lessening, it is the part Of
wisdom to retrench expenses, as 50
many are doing all over the country
There is nothing that makes Americans
81 ridiculous in the eyes Of Europeans
., we may say, our almost natural de
sire to make swell on small incomes.
Kenosha, in this state, is one Of the
yreatcst horse markets in the United
States, and We understand that some
Of the best horses in New York city
come from there.-Ece. Wisconsin,.

Sow,Nn CEREALS TOGETHER

SowIN0 CEREALS ToGETHER.-Of
late years the attention Of several ex-
detrimental English agriculturists Gas
we'll as some Canadian) has been turn
ed toward the possibility Of increasing
the yield per acre of various cereals
when sown together in the same field.
There seems little doubt that a much
larger yield can thus be obtained. In.
stances are quoted where peas, oats,
barley and wheat, all sown together,
have produced very large yield. This
plan has been especially successful
where various sorts Of wheat alone
have been sown together, or, as we
should express it, mixed sample of
seed. One man mentions yield of
seventy bushels Of this mixed seed
(whcat) per acre, and this great crop
was composed Of four different sorts Of
whcat. A most intelligent farmer in
Pickering lately told me he had sue
cccdcd in raising upwards Of sixty
bushels on acre Of mixed wheat and
barley Another farmer, from Lower
Canada, states eighty bushels an acre
Of mixed barley, oats and peas, and
also states that 10 his section it is quite
common thing to thus mix seed. A
correspondent in England tells me that
farmers in his locality find mixing va.
rious sorts Of wheat often very success
full, and lately it has been much prac'
!t:ccd.-C0r. Canadian Farmer.

ENGLISH journals state that the de-
mand du. ing the past year has been so
great for steel rails that they have not
been obtainable at hardly any price,
There is scarcity Of suitable ore for

Europe, except in Sweden, where the

the valuable ores Of that country moro
