Instead of doing that which is often a damage lo the wheels, eiuising them to ilisli, it they will getsomo linseed oil and heal it boiling hot and give the felloes all the oil (hoy can lake, it will fill them tip to their usual size and tighten to kt'ej) llieiu from slu inking, and alto to keep out the water.

It is a crop which pre-eminently lequires intelligence. With somo ox ceptious it will not pay the grent mass of ordinary farmers to attempt to grow potatoes in these times. The fact that they succeeded years ago is nothing to tho punx)he. for the conditions now am greatly changed. "Without lecont ex perience they will probably fail. How ever, as an immense area will undoubt edly be planted in potatoes this season, nnd to a considerable oxtont by those wno nave not. grown potntocs largely, we prebout some facts concerning the crop doduecd from practical experience In modern potato culture much more importance attaches to the selection of teed than formerly. Yoars ago, all, qr iieuny uh, poiaio seen was goou. JNow, probably one-half or more of tho pota toes used for seed arc unfit for that pur pose. This is especially truo in years when high prices prevail, for these hiirli prices tempt growers to dispose of all that aro marketable, lenving only the poorest for seed.

The mere breaking of the Chill is but a slej. towards completing a radical cure; the various organs of the body, especially the stomach and liver, must be brought to a healthy auvl vigor ous condition before a permanent cure can bo established, 'an.1 this fact has been specially kept in view by Dr. Jayne in bis treatment of these complaints. The use of Jayne's Ague Mixture, in conjunction nith Jayne'e Sanative Pills, as prescribed tn the Directions which accompany eaU bottle, will not only BREAK UP THE CHILLS, but restore the system, more particularly tho liver and stomach, to a sound condition, and so prevent a relapse uf Fever and Ague by thor oughly ERADICATING THE DISEASE, and the beet evidence of this Is the invariable success which has always followel the, admin litratlcn of these remedies, as atte.tej by the certificates published annually in Dr. Jayne's Almanac, and the wMe-ji.rcaJ popularity of the Ague Mixture in tLoie'llttrlcts of the United Ftstes, vvlcre the diseases, fwr wli'.e-h It it :dalcii, icon prevail, - For uie by Hodge, Paris & Co., AgenU.
