Agricultural Salt.

A prominent Minnesota farmer, Mr..
d. II. Valentine, writes as follows re-
garding the use of salt as fertilizer:
"During the past season L tried
sowing salt on over one hundred acres
of wheat. and the results were so sat
isfactory that l will SOW about 200 lbs
to every acre of wheat, oats and bar
ley the coming season, about l.400
acres"
We have seen many other letters,
from trustworthy sources, advocating
the use Of salt on land testifying TO a
considerable increase in yield.
We have ordered one car of Agri-
cultural salt which we will be able to
deliver here at about S7.T5 per ton,
and will order more if necessary sub
scribers are found. The salt should
be sown Immediately after the grain
comes up, and it will therefore be
we'll for farmers VINO wish to make
trial to give their orders at once
There will be no salt brought IN on
the chance OF finding buyers after ar

1t is said that 5000 people die an
nually in the United States alone from
this disease. In some sections Of the
country one death in every three is
from Consumption. THIS can be, and
should he avoided; our people are too
careless about an ordinary cough or
cold, and other symptoms of throat
and lung affections that lead to this
disease. You should arrest it while
it is in the germ. Two or three doses
of DIR. Bosanko's Cough and Lung Syr-
up will relieve an ordinary cough or
cold 1t does not dry up a cough like
many preparations on the market and

ritation, and renders. the voice clear

IRELAND or TO-DAY: The Causes and
Aims Of Irish Agitation. Illustrated. By
NJ T. Sullivan, with an Introduction by
Thomas Power 0'Connor, NJ. p. j. G
McCurdy & Co., Publishers, Philadelphia;
Cincinnati, o; Chicago, i'll; st. Louis
Mo
To the great body of the people of the
United States, whose reading about the Irish
question has been almost necessarially con-
fined to publications written from the En-
glish point of view, and who know Ireland
only as thus represented, we especially COM
mend this work.
We wish it could be brought TO tue atten-
ton of every one who is indifferent upon the
Irish question, or has taken up the idea that
it is an agitation causeless, or based only on
sentimental grievances.
They would find in this book no rhetorical
generalities or descriptions drawn from inn
agination, but facts gathered from sources OF
unquestionable reliability, and statements OF
persons of unimpeachable veracity
Entirely disconnected with the Irish Land
movement, revealing the true nature and ef-
iects OF Irish landlordsm, its grinding OPP
preston, It's exorbitant exaetions, and the
depths OF squalid, hopeless poverty and mis-
cry to which it reduces Irish tenants, which
require no appeals to feeling to fill every hui
man mind with detestation of the Irish land
system, and cemnisel alton for those upon
whom it has been imposed. The Publishers
want Agents everywhere.
