Liniment for Horses.

A correspondent says: Some time
ago was good deal worried with a
couple of horses which had sore backs.
| tried various remedies without success.
and was beginning to despair, when the
following receipt came to my notice.
g The inner bark of white oak bardE
boiledin an iron kettle never use q BRASS
until it is as black as ink; while boiling
drop in piece of alum, about the size of
q hens egg. This Eniment is to be ap-
piled with sponge, and is good for any
sore or bruise; in fact ii is safe thing
TO keep in ones barn ready for use
when occasion requires. AS l found
this so useful venture to send it for the
benefit of Others who may not he in pos
session of anything as good.

A Question put to the Connecticut Board o.
Agriculture.

'eMNpig sickened, refused to eat and
he comforted; tongue not much furred,
tail little. Smith said, give charcoal,
but no hankering for charcoal was man
ifest. Brown said 1t was tooth-ache ,and
weknocked out one that seemed to
crowd. The downeast expression ST the
animal continued, and Jones recon-
.mended bleeding by the excision of the
tail. NO blood successive inches were
Topped, until there was little or nothing
left for subsequent operators; still little
blood, and no Improvement in the de-
jected expression of the beast. Eyelet
holesin the legs were then searched for
and cleansed. Williams said it would
promote healthier action, but here the
pig lay down without much other action
of any sort. PEBBLES now said the case
was critical, and advised to cut a
small slit between the ears, (which had
been previously subjected to like treat
mentewith the tail, and to rub in salt.
This promised to be successful, but just
at that moment the animal, with char
acteristic obstinacy, died. My question
is, "'What didn't do that 1 should
have done, and what should have done
that didn't do, to save that pig?"

Petroleum as Fues in Russia.

The, demand for English coal in st.
Petersburg and in the north of Russia is
gikely to be considerably reduced, partly
in consequence of,the large quantity
and imported from 'Westphalia, and
partly from the impetus likely to be
given to the production Of mineral oil.
An American speculator, who has
=" struck oil'' in the valley of the Volga,
has taken on lease $50, 900 acres of land,
which he has already begun to work.
He promises to sell petroleum at thirty
per cent. under itiae price Of that i'm
ported from America, and hehas already
shown the value of his discovery by
supplying some of the steamers on the
Volga. Itis said that the companies
which have tried heating with the new
fuel are perfectly satisfied with the re-
sult of the experiment.

Value Of Ashes.

Some of our readers who have ashes
of which they think they. ought to dis
pose in order to prevent loss, may in
squire to what special crops they should
be applied. We,r reply that for onions,
ashes are among the very best of fertil-
izers. For this crop they should be
strewed along the rows, lengthwise, and
the cultivator should then be run be-
tween them or else they should be hoed
by hand. Applied to Indian corn, a
handful to each hill, Immediately before
a rain, or just before crop is hoed, they
give good returns. They are also very
good for vines in sthe garden. In most
seasons the application to grass land i'm
mediately after the first crop of hay has
been removed, has avery fine effect and
insures,a good crop of rowen. There are
ways enough in which all the ashes that
made can be profitably used on the
farm, and they certainly ought to be
saved and used to the best possible ad-
vantage England Homestead.
