ly ground into flour by the hand
mill, this being chiefly a bread grain.
In the south it is very largely cult
waited, and extends north over the
Punjaub plains to the Himalaya.
where 1t is frequently found as far
west as the Chenab up to 5000 and
1000 feet. This grain is the chief
article of food amongst the laboring
classes in Mysorc and other parts Of
Southern India. 1t is usually stored
in pits, and will keep good in them
for many years. EleuSi,ae stricto is
said to be the most cultivated species
of the two, as it is found to be the
most productive.

Hindoos, particularly with those who
inhabit the mountains and most bar

Corn and Its Cultivation.

The pollen from the tassel falls
upon and fertilizes the silk and the
silk the grain. If from weakness or
other causes the silk fails to come
out of the husk to be impregnated
by the pollen the corn fails to appear
or develop on the cob hence the va
cant rows so frequently seen on the
cob.
A further examination of the
stalk shows an ear, or the commence
ment OF an ear, on every joint that
has groove. Generally about two
thirds have it, and in every one is
seen an embryo ear undeveloped.
The question arises right here, why
this incomplete development? 1
have contended, for several years, that
every such organization would devel
op ON every grooved joint were prop

Raising Tobacco.

AT recent meeting of the Tobac
co Growers Association of Lancaster
county, Peter S. Reist read an essay
on the culture OF Tobacco, of which
the following is an abstract:
The climate, the mode of culture,
the kind Of manure applied, the pc
Rod at which the crop should be
gathered and cured, etc, are impor-
tant factors in connection with the
commerce in tobacco. 1t will grow
on almost any soil, and in any eli
mate that will produce corn, but a
warm climate seems preferable. On
our 100000 acres of land devoted to
the cultivation OF tobacco in the
United States 100000, 900 pounds are
produced, valued at $30,000,000.
Kentucky raises 30,O00,000; Vir-
gina, 50,000,0O0 Missouri, 43,000,-
900; Pennsylvania about 100000;
and Connecticut about 100000
pounds. Mr.. Dickerman says to-
bacco is a paying crop, but it ex-
hausts the soil more rapidly than any
other crop, and when land Is once
exhausted by its cultivation, hardly
any process will pay to renovate
it again. TO prove this we need
only refer to exhausted lands OF Vir-
ginia and Maryland southwark, and
many places i'll the eastern and
western states; but this result can
not be considered unavoidable.
PREPARING THE GROUND.
Plow under well-rotted barnyard
manure and lime, or any good COM
post or phosphate, at any time that
your land is in such condition as to
make the soil loose and mellow. Or
use bone dust or any kind OF fine
fertilizer as a top-dressing Use I'M
derstandinoly and with experimental
knowledge, a certain quantity OF
bone dust or harmless fertilizer to
each plant. Bear i'll mind, that to
bring your land in proper condi-
ton to grow tobacco, you cannot
easily get it too rich and mellow.
The application of ashes, muck or
compost of almost any material that
would produce good corn will also
produce good tobacco. Have your
land ready to plant about the first
day of June. Score it off about three
feet and half apart in ridges cross
ing each other at right angles.
VARIETIES.
There are, perhaps, ten different
varieties of tobacco, Of which every
grower must judge for himself such
as the broad-leaved Connecticut, the
Huber, the chestnut leaf, etc., de-
pending, somewhat, on the richness of
your soil and your location, as we'll
as the state OF the season.
PLANTS.
One of the first requisites is the
preparation of good and rich seed
bed, which should be attended to as
early as the ground will allow its
culture. For this purpose select the
sunny side of a southern slope. Learn
to SOW your seed by experience, and
/ consider it useless at this late day

RAGGY, OR RAGGEE (EVeatSine cor
Ocana).-This grain is of high impor-
lance to the poor Of India, from its
hardness and from the abundant re-
turn it gives. 1t will grow on al

Symptoms of a DiseasedL Liver.


 DAN in the right side, under the edge of the ribs, increases on pres sure; sometimes the pain is in the left side; the patient IS rarely able to lie on the left side; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and 1t frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and IS sometimes mistaken for rheumatism in the arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appe- tite and sickness; the bowels in gen eral are costive, sometimes alternative with lax; the head IS troubled with pain, accompanied with dull, heavy sensation in the back part. There is generally a considerable loss of mem- ory, accompanied with a painful sen- sation of having left undone some thing which ought to have been dore. A slight, dry cough is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility; he is easily startled, his feet are cold or burning, and he complains of prickly sensa- tion of the skin; his spirits are low; and although he is satisfied that exer. else would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely summon up fortitude enough to try it. In fact, he distrusts every remedy. Several of the above symptoms attend the disease, but cases have occurred where few of them ex- isted, yet examination of the body, after death, has shown the LIVER to have been extensively deranged.
 AGUE AND FEVER.
 DR. C. McLANE's LIVER PILLS, IN CASES OF AGUE AND FEVER, when taken with Quinine, are productive of the most happy results. No better cathartic can be used, preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. We would advise all who are afflicted with this disease to give them FAIR TRIAL.
 For all bilious Arrangements, and as simple purgative, they are unequaled.
