Grateful Women.

None receive so much benefit, and none are so profoundly grateful and show such an interest in recommending Hop Bitters as women. It is the only remedy peculiarly adapted to the many ills the sex is almost universally subject to. Chills and fever, indigestion or deranged liver, constant or periodical sick Headaches, weakness in the back or kidneys, pain in the shoulders and different parts of the body, feeling of lassitude and despondency, are all readily removed by these Bitters.- CO2tT'03lt

Timely ce.s.s..a..e.s.

This IS the most trying season Of the
year for the dairyman, whether he is making
butter, cheese, or selling milk. Pasture.
are generally of no account at this time, and
when the COWS are put on the mowings i,
should be remembered that the grass there
has already been touched by the frost.
This makes great chemical change in the
character Of the feed, and its effects are frs,
felt on the butter product. Frozen heritage
makes poor butter and the quantity is
greatly reduced. while those volatile oils
which give such an aroma TO the butter are
TO a great extent destroyed, as well a. ,ha.e
which add to its color. Then comes the
question, Wha; are ~e to do ? 1t is NO ear
ly to commence feeding hay, and eonsidera-
bic fall feed is yet unconsuned. There
is but one way by which We can keep up
the quantity Of butter, aad tina, is BY
feeding meal. A mixture Of meal and
shorts is an excellent feed, bu, if some
ground oats are added it will make . grea,
improvement This mixture will counterfeit
10 some extent the taste Of the butter pro-
duced by frozen heritage. l, will help also
to keep up the How OF milk and keep the
cows in good condition. A friend Of ours
is nov feeding with the best results, shorts
in the morning and sweet corn on the cob

Years ago land the same custom nov pre-
walls up on few Of our back farms) the
time for drying Cd the cows was q, Thanks

milking and no churning done; but now,
on majority Of farms, butter is made
through the winter. Blu, this cannot he
done without meal. Shorts will not add
either to the quantity or quality Of the but
ter. bat will add to the quantity Of the milk
though not improve its quality. and We,
shorts are very important feed upon q milk
farm. There is no product that will run
down a farm quicker than milk. 1t re-
moves the potash from the phosphaies, and
also the nitrogen; and if we want to keep
up the fertility Of our soil and condition Of
our COWS, it is absolutely necessary that We
either supply these elements in their food,
or apply them to the soil.-( American Cul-

A farmer travelling with his load
Picked up a horseshoe Ia the road,
And IA led il fast 20 his barn door,
That Luck might down upon him pour,
Thst every blessing SHOWN IN life
Might crown hi. homestead and his wife,
Aud never any kind OF harm
Descend upon his growing farm.
But dire ill-fortuue soon began
To visit the astounded man,
His hens declined 10 Law their eggs;
Ills bacon tumbled from the pegs,
And rats deyourcd tn. fallen legs;
His corn that never failed before,
widowed and rotted on the floor;
His grass refused TO end in hay;
His cattle died. or went a,tray:
In short, all moved the crooked way.
Next spring great drought baked the sod,
And roasted every pea IN pod;
The beans declared they could not grow
So long nature acted 80;
Redundant insects reared their brood
To starve for lack OF juicy food;
The slaves from barrel sides went %
As if they had the hooping-cpugh,
And nothing of the useful kind
To hold together felt inclined;
In short, il was no use 10 try
While all the land was In fry.
One morn. dcmorslized with grief,
The farmer claniorci for relief;
And PRAYED right hard to under.taoi
What witchcrsft now possc.ed his land;
Why house aud farm in misery grew
Since he nailed up that lucky" shoe
While thus di.msyed DER matter. wrong
And old man CHANGED to trudge along.
To whom be told, with NORWOOD tears,
How his affairs were In afrear.,
And what \ desperate state Of things
A picked-up horseshoe sometimes brings.
The stranger asked to see the shoe,
The farmer brought IL into view;
But when the Old man raised his head,
He laughed outright. and quickly said,
mo wonder skies upon you frown-
You've nailed the horseshoe upside down.
just turn II round. and soon you'll see
How you and Fortune will agree"
The farmer turned the horseshoe round.
Ana showers began 10 swell the ground;
The sunshine laughed among his grain,
And heaps on heaps piled up the vain;
The Ion his hay could barely hold,
His cattle did As they were told;
His fruit trees needed sturdy props
To hold the gathering apple crops;
His turnips aud potato fields
Astonshed all men by their Yields;
Folks never saw such ears OF corn
A. In his smiling hills were born;
HE barn was fall Of bursting bins
Hi. wife presented him with twins:
I'll, neighbors maryelled more and more
To sce the increase 10 his store.
And now the merry farmer sings
There are two WAYS Of doing things:
And when for good luck you would pray,
Nail up the horseshoe the right WAY"
