will relieve the heartburn, and it is
used by most experienced trench
doctors to preaent typhoid fever.
1t will no doubt prove to be a pre-
ventive of that typhoid pest, hog

sore eyes Of long standing. For
canker mouth and diptheria it will
prove equally etticacious. Why's
Simply because it is the best disin-

sweet and free FROM putrefaction.

case the constable for the precinct, has
been very sick and low spirited for long
time. For several years he has tried all
the doctors here, and we have some good
ones, and they did him no good. After
much persuasion l sold him two bottles
of PERUNA and MANALIN. He took half
of the medicine. / could see q great
change in him, and now he Is as sound a
man apparently as there IS in this vicinity,
and he says he is entirely well. lie is
a number one man and Is highly re
spected He IS satisfied that your medi-
cine saved his life, after all the doctors and
all medicines had failed. Being unac

The Buokwheat Crop Valuable.

Buckwheat can be made a valua-
BILE crop if proper care Is given to
it. This grain is worth at least rs
cents bushel for feeding, if it is
properly fed. 1t is best ground with
corn, as fine as possible, and may
be fed with cut hay or straw moist
ened with water The seed may be
sown early in July. We have found
thick seeding the hest. At least
one bushel per acre should be sown.
1t pays to prepare the ground as
well for this crop as for any other,
but it is especially useful for break
ing up an old meadow and prepar-
ing it for reseeding. The sod will
be well rotted and the soil mellow
ed and made ready for fall grain
crop, if this is desired, to be follow
ed by the grass seed the next sum
mer. No other crop, except peas,
so well mellows the ground as buck
wheat, and this is precisely the eff
feet required in reseeding land. Be
sides this useful purpose, buck
wheat is valuable for it's gram. 1t
will easily produce thirty or forty
bushels per acre if well managed,
and a bushel of it is worth two Of
oats of the light sort generally
grown, which is largely husk. The
crop, too, is put in at times and
harvested at times convenient for
the farmer.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1885-07-30

English agriculturists are very
much in earnest in thinking that
their relief from foreign competi-
ton, hard times, ETC., is through
dairy farming. 1t is evident that
as country becomes older and
more thickly settled, there is a
greater tendency to engage in dai-
rying Whether dairying will pay
better in proportion than other
branches of farming where land is
high than where it is cheap we will
not attempt to say, but the evidence
shows that the most thickly popu
lated countries are largely engaged
in dairying.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1885-07-30

1t seems to be generally conceded
| that milo maize is an excellent for
age and grain plant. A gentleman
in Georgia, who has tested it both
for fodder and grain, claims
that it made 4,S00 pounds of
fodder and from sixty to seventy
bushels of grain per acre, on good
fresh land, and that the grain
weighs sixty pounds to the bushel
and makes a -four but little inferior
to that made from wheat. My ex-
perience and observation is that the
above statement is quite likely cor
rect. / received a circular about
flour corn, and at first thought it
must be milo maize, but upon OBJ
tanning a quantity of it, ] found it
was quite different, and as / have
not seen anyOne's experience with
it in the agricultural papers, l
would like to hear more of it and be
scientific name. Here is what the
circular claims for it: "Flour corn
will produce from three to four
times as much per acre as wheat
lowing to climate and soil J, turn
out more flour to the bushel, much
whittier, rises splendldly, and makes
all kinds Of bread and cakes, rolls
and biscuits, as good as those made
from the best wheat flour. 1t will
yield twice as many bushels per
acre as Indian corn, and five times
as much fodder; make the finest
roasting ears in the world, white as
snow and rich as cream. Much
better, planted fifteen days later,
than any other corn on the same
farm. The stalks stool from the
ground like wheat, each producing
from four to six stalks averaging
ten ears to the hill-ears from five
to seven inches in circumference
and from six to ten inches long"
Should it prove near so good rs
claimed for it, no reasonable person
could but like it.
l will give my actual experience
with cat tail millet for green forage.
1t is a vigorous, rank growing plant,
strong or well matured
land. Enough for one horse is, ten
rows, thirty yards long, three feet
apart, twelve to twenty grains in a
place, eighteen inches apart in the
drill. Cut one row a day, which |
will require ten days, and on the
eleventh day the row first cut will be
ready for recruiting, and this pro
cess may be continued from the
first of June until frost. Farm
stock eat it we'll. Some cut the
lays feeding in the morning, al
owing it to wilt and thereby sweet
N, which induces horses and mules
70 eat it with greater avidity.-Tex-
