MONEY SAVED is MONEY MADE.

NCONOMY and Labor Saving are the watch
II words of successful farming. Hundreds Of
planters will certify that blacksmhing is reduced
to nearly nothing by using Johnson's Combination
Plows. Buy your straight square point or scoot-
er pows, and with Johnson's Combination you
can make every plow that is necessary to culti-
vate crop. Farmers who are using them have
cultivated their whole crops without paying one
cent for blacksmithing Use them for turning
shovels, scraper, corn shovels, etc. They do more
different kinds of plowing than plows are usually
made to do and give perfect satisfaction TO all VINO
adjust them properly, and are the cheapest ploWs
known to the trade. In putting on the wing Win
the scooter plow to make a turning shoVei, you
have a subsoiler and turning shovel also; below
the wing the straight plow will subsoil, while the
wing will only turn the top of the soil that is
loosened up. Try them and note their saving OF
expense, etc.
TESTIMONIALS.
YoRKv1LLE, s. c.. July 26, 1881.
Messrs Kennedy Bros. and Barron.-1 have
used the johnson Corn and Cotton Cutivator in
my cotton crop this year, and regard it as the
best and cheapest plow in use. Do not intend to
use anything else if can get them.
B. F. BRIGGS.
Messrs. Kennedy Brothers & Barron-Gents:
Having used the Johnson Corn and Cotton Cul.
tvator this season, think it is all that is claimed
for it by the einventors. 1t is good trick.

An Experiment.
fFrom the New York Herald. j

from the New York Herald.l
1t is said that if you have presence of
mind enough to face raging bull and
look straight into his eyes he is power
less to hurt you. We tried this expert
ment once and found it worked admira-
bly,. The fierce animal tore the ground
with his feet and beloved with all his
might; but something seemed to hold
him back ike magic and he did us no in
jury. Perhaps we ought to add, in or.
der to be correct historically, that the
bull was on the other side Of the fence.
We never try an experiment Of that kind
without taking the proper precautions
beforehand : s ssS4z

It will be apparent to any one who will examine
SOLD GOLD WATCH, that a,ids from the neces-
sary thickness for engraving and polishing, large
proportion Of the PREo. Gus METAL used is
needed only to stiffen and hold the engraved
portions in place and supply the necessary selidity
and strength. Tie surplus gold is actually need
less 80 far as UTILITY and beauty are concerned.
In JAMES BOSS, PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES
this WASTE Of precious metal is overcome, and the
SAME so11D1rx and STRENGTH produced at from
one third to one-hat the usual cost Of cold cases.
This process Is Of the most simple nature, as fol-
lows: Plate of nickel composition metal, especial
ly adapted to the purpose, has two plates Of SOLID
GOLD soldered ono on each side. The three are
then passed between polished steel rollers, and the
result is . strip of heavy plated composition, from
which the cases. backs, centres, bezels etc., are cut
and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The
gold in these cases is sufficiently thick to NIT of
all kinds of chasing, engraving and ename)ipg: the
engraved cases have been carried until worn per
f. city smooth by time and use without removing
the gold.
THIS Is THE ONLY CASE MADE WITH TWO

KITCHEN KNOWLEDGE.


Ripe cucumbers make good sweet
pickles.
Clabbered milk is better than water
for freshening salt fish.
A piece of cork is better than cloth for
applying brick t, knives.
Apples which take q long while to
bake should have q little water in the
pan.
II We wish to prolong our lives We
should put one day between washing
and ironing.
Salt pork will be as nice, nearly as
fresh. If soaked in sweet milk and water
in equal parts.
Liver should be thrown into boiling
water after being sliced thin, and then
be fried in lard or dripping.
Piecrust will not be soggy if it ia
brushed with the white of an egg before
the fruit is put in.
Wash pantry shelves with hot alum
and water TO rid them Of ants, water
bugs and other troublesome insects.
Stoves blackened when entirely cold
will keep the clean look . great deal
longer than when they are polished
whom the stove ia warm.
A half cup of vinegar in tho water
will make an old fowl cook nearly as
quick as a young one, and it does not in
jure the flavor in the least.
Tough beefsteak may be made eatable
by mincing it very fine with choppinG
knife and cooking quickly in pot with
a close cover to prevent the steam from
escaping.
