The Public Confidence Well Placed.

Although the world has been seeking speci-
fics for disease for many centuries, few indeed
have been found. Prominent among these few
is Hostetters Stomach Bitters, which years ago
received the endorsement of the medical pro-
fession, and was hailed by press and public as
the great renovant and preventive of the age.
And with good reason, since to the weakened
stomach it gives strength, to the torpid liver ac-
tivity, to the disordered bowels regularity, and
to the shaken nervous system frmness and
tone. Under its benignant influence healthful
vigor returns to the debilitated and wasted
frame, the fiaccid muscles become compact, the
wan aspect of i'll health is replaced by look Of
cheerfulness, the mind ceases to despond, and
flesh is developed upon the attenuated frame
There Is no exaggeration in this statement. 1t
is as true as that the system is subject to dis
ease Were proofs required to substantiate the
reality of the comprehensive effects of the Bit
tiers, there is probably not in existence a medi-
cine in favor of which such mass of concur
rent testimony, from the most respectable sour
ces, could be adduced. But the efficacy of the
| nations Alternative and invlgorant has been q
matter of universal knowledge too long to need
| any such corroboration. The fact that 1t has its
largest sales in those portions of the North and
! South American Continents Mexico, and the
| West Indies, in which atmospheric influences
prejudicial to health exists, proves what conf
dence is felt in its remedial and protective vlr.
tues In localities where fevers of an interlnit'
| tent type prevail, especially, 1t has come to be
regarded as an indispensable necessity. jyl-lm

A CHEAP WEATHER.GLAsS.

Take glass jar, such as is used to can
fruits, and fill it with water within two or
three inches Of the brim. Then take q
pint olive.oil flask or bottle, with a long
neck, and, after cleaning it thoroughly
with saleratus and water, turn it upside
down into the jar. Should the weather
be fair, the water in the neck Of the flask
will remain about half an inch above the
level but il it inclines to rain the water
will rise in the neck, and as the atmos.
phere grows heavy it will continue TO rise
as much as two or three inches in few
hours. This is desirable invention for
the farmer, because its cost is a trife, it
gives no trouble, the water does not re-
quirc changing, and outdoors or indoors,
heat or cold are alike immaterial. In
frosty weather, however. it should not be
exposed to too great degree Of cold, for
if the water should freeze it would break
the jar. OF course, this simple little ap.
paratus will not show with scientific pre-
cision the amount of moisture in the
as a barometer does yet
the warning of an approaching storm will
be given by the rise of the water in the
neck Of the flask. and domestic arrange.
ments and farm work may be directed by
its aid, to the benefit Of both the house
wife and farmer.

WHEN TO HARVEST CROPS.

just when to harvest crops in order to
get the most profit from them, says the
Ohio Farmer, is question Of consider.
able Importance to every man who is en-
gagged in their production. If there be a
difference in the value Of a crop or grass
resulting from the stage of growth or con.
dition OF -ipeness at the time il is harvest.
ed, il is of advantage TO every producer
to understand the difference and the cause
Of the difference. Asst is question to be
determined by experiment entirely, it is
worth the attehtion offarmers to inquire
what has been the result Of such trials as
have been made to determine this ques.
ton. In an experiment made for this
express purpose Of throwing light upon
this subject, three plants Of wheat Of
equal extent, cut at different stages Of
ripeness, yielded of grain as follows:
Cut twenty days before it was ripe, 100
lbs; cut ten days before il was ripe, 900
lbs; cut when fully ripe, 206 lbs.
From this it will be seen that that which
was cut ten dsys before complete ripeness,
gave eleven pounds, or five per cent. more
gain tnan the equal plat cut at full ma.
turity. Allowing field to yield at the
rate Of twenty bushels Of grain per acre,
this would be equivalent to saving Of one
bushel per acre in the simple act of cut.
ting ten days earlier. But not only is the
yield increased by this early harvesting !;
the percentage Of the -four, bran. etc., is
also affected by the difference in time Of
harvesting. The following exhibits the
difference in -four. bran, and waste from
equal quantities Of wheat cut at different
times:
20 days before ripe, -four 74.7 bran, etc,
Is g.; 10 days before ripe, -four; 79.l
bran, etc., 20.6; when fully ripe, -four,
72.2., bran etc, 27.8.
Here the difference is in favor Of both
the early cuttings, being as much a., per
cent. between that cut at full maturity
and that at ten days before. This, is a
crop OF 70 bushels per acre. would be a
saving Of AS bushels. Still another ben.
eft growing out Of early harvesting is
found in the different portions Of the glu.
ten and water contained in the -four. The
more gluten and the less water il contains,
other things being equal, the more valu0.
bic IL Is. In the absye experiment, the
different cuttings contained these con.
stituents in the following proportions !:
That which was cut.

CIT FORMS

If balls of fresh clover or other green
grass be scattered throughout the field,
the cut worms are said TO be attracted to
them and crawl into them where they can
be easily destroyed. But this cannot be
entirely effected, especially on sandy land
badly infested, and close watch must be
kept and whenever traces of their work
are seen, they must be dug out and kill
ed. With early tomatoes and other early
crops, which would justify the expense, /
have saved the crop by scraping away the
dirt at tie surface, and applying from a
pepper box Paris green, mixed with -four
or plaster. Under this treatment, though
many plants are attacked, yet little dam
age is done. Tomatoes in particular,
when eaten half off, do not seem to suffer
much from it.-Root's Manuals
