PROPER TIME FOR CUTTING TIM
BER.
A writer in Silliinan’s Journal of Science
recommends the summer season, when the
trees are in full foliage, as the most suita
ble time in the year, for felling timber
trees. lie thinks experiment, reason and
experience all sanction his opinion. Acci
dent led him to the discovery. Having
nearly finished the skeleton of a vessel for
the sea out of timber, cut in winter, he dis
covered that several pieces were wanting,
and was under the necessity of obtaining
frojn the woods while the trees were covered
with foliage.—Having procured the pieces,
they were introduced ; the vessel was fin
ished and sent on her voyages.—When she
became unseaworthy, the timbers were ex
amined. The dry-rot was found to be con
fined wholly to the winter-cut timber ; the
summer cut pieces being perfectly sound.
Ho believes that wherever the sap is, the
rot begins. He does not admit, that in win
ter this fluid is “deep detruded to the root,”
for says he, the roots cannot possibly hold
all the sap. Experiment appears to have
satisfied him, that in winter the sap retires
into the heart- wood, and in summer, that it
returns to the alburnum or white-wood. If
therefore, he reasons, we wish to obtain du
rable heart-wood, we should cut the timber
when the sap has left this central portion
of the tree. To prove that the sap retreats
to the centre during the winter, he cut a
stick in this season, and exposing one end
to the fire he found the principal moisture
issuing from the heart wood at the other end;
a similar stick cut in summer, and treated
in the same manner, exuded moisture most
ly from the alburnum.
LOCATION OF A FARM HOUSE.
As convenience is the first thing to be
consulted in building, we should choose a
house spot, on land that is neither very high
nor very low. If a house is set on the peak
of a hill every thing must be carried to it as
a disadvantage. Wood, farm produce,
&c., must be obtained at an extra cost ;
and water a most important item in a neat
house will not run up hill.
On the other hand a house should not be
set in a valley. Some have set houses
thus under the mistaken idea that it would
be warmer than on high ground. But it is
well ascertained, that in cold nights the air
in vallies is colder than that which is on the
hills ; hence it is, that vegetables in low
land are soonest bitten with frost. The
heaviest particles of air are coldest and
sink below those that are warmer—so that
we gain nothing in point of warmth for our
cold climate by going into vallies. It is
true, we sometimes avoid the high winds
when we conceal ourselves in shady vales,
but we may contrive to break the force of
the winds on higher grounds.
But we cannot always choose our house
spot. If our land is a plain, and circum
stances render it convenient for us to build
here, we should be careful not to dig our
cellars too deep. We are generally de
ceived here by first appearances, and al
most every man wishes, when too late, he
had set his house a foot or two higher. On
a level piece of ground the cellar should
not be dug more than two or three feet deep
and if the dirt thrown out is not a sufficient
hanking, it is better to bring some from a
distance than set the house lower.
In setting a house we have other objects
in view in addition to warmth of situation.
We want air in summer as well as a quiet
atmosphere in winter, and we should take
care not to set a house where the breezes
that are most agreeable and prevalent in
summer can be obstructed by woods or hills
or other buildings.—All should be open to
the south west, from which point only we
must expect air in the hottest days. All
obstructions to a free circulation of air
should be on the north and west ofthe house
from which quarter we are generally wil
ling that the winds should be less violent.
A BRILLIANT STUCCO WHITE
WASH.
Many have probably often heard of the
brilliant and lasting whitewash upon the
cast end of the President’s House at Wash
ington city. The following is a correct
receipt for making it.
Take clean lumps of well burnt lime,
(say five or six quarts) slack the same with
hot water, in a tub, (covered to keep in the
steam,) pass it in the fluid form through a
fine sieve; add one fourth of a pound of
whiting or burnt all um pulverised ; 1 pound
of good sugar ; three pints of rice flour,
made into a thin and well boiled paste, and
one pound ofelean glue, dissolved by first
soaking it well, and then putting it into a
small kettle, which should again be put in
to a large one filled with water, and placed
over a slow fire. Add five gallons of hot
water to the whole mixture.
This wash is applied where particular
neatness is required, with a painter’s brush.
It must be put on while warm, if upon the
outside building—if within doors, cold. It
will retain its brilliancy for many years.—
There is nothing ofthe kind that will com
pare with it. About one pint of this mix
ture will cover a square yard upon the out
side of a house if properly applied. If a
larger quantity than five gallons is wanted
the same proportions must be observed in
preparing. Coloring matter may be added
to give it any required shade.— Genessee
Farmer.
Quality of Milk. —Several cups have
been successively filled while milking from
one cow, producing the following results:
in every case, the quantity of cream was
found to increase in proportion as the pro
cess of milking advanced ; in different cows
the proportioif varied, but in the great num
ber the excess of cream in the last cup as
compared with the was 16 to 1 ; but
as in some cases the difference was not so
much, a fair average might be considered
as ten or twelve to one. And the differ
ence in the quality ofthe two sorts of cream
was no less striking, the cream given by
the first drawn milk being thin, white, and
without consistence, while that furnished by
the last was thick, and of a rich color.—
The milk remaining in the different cups
presented similar differences, that which
was drawn first being very poor, blue and
having the appearance of milk and water,
while that in the last cup was a yellowish
hue, rich, and to the eye and taste it re
sembled cream rather than milk. It ap
pears, therefore, from these experiments,
that if after drawing seven or eight pints
front a cow, half a pint remains in the ud
der, not only almost as much cream will
he lost, as the seven or eight pints will fur
nish, but of such a quality as gives the rich
est taste and color to the butter. This fact
has been corroborated by chemical experi
ments and holds good with respect to the
milk of all other animals.— Bleacher's Es
say.
From the Louisville Journal.
ON MANURING CORN IN THE
HILL.
In 1822 I carried out the manure from
my stable and dropped in the drill furrow
on a portion of a field of drilled corn. The
difference in the produce was evidently ve
ry great between the manured and unma
nured portions of fields ; but being from
home at gathering time, I did not ascertain
that difference by measurement. The ad
vantage of the manure was so great that I
concluded to be availed of it for a second
crop on the same ground. In 1823 I open
ed the same drill furrows, and planted corn
as before. The difference, though not quite
equal, was still very striking. To test it, I
gathered twelve rows from each portion,
planted at the same time, cultivated in the
same manner, on land of’the same quality.
The 12 manured rows measured 33 bush
els, 7 gallons, and 6 pints, the unmanured
rows measured 24 bushels, 3 pints, being
between one third and one half more for the
manure the second year.
In another experiment I manured in the
hill a portion, that had been cleared ten or
twelve years before the balance ofthe field,
thinking to make it equal to the fresher
ground. The difference, however, in favor
of the manured part was so great as to in
duce a measurement of an acre of each.—
The result was noted at the time, but the
paper is mislaid, so that the exact amount
cannot be given. My recollection is, that
the manured acre of older and worn out
land produced over one third more than the
acre of the fresher, of as good or better
quality ofland. The quantity of manure
was about half a spadefull to the hill.
Every one knows that manuring aug
ments the crop, yet few ever take the trou
ble of ascertaining to what amount.—
These experiments are given to enable
farmers to estimate the value of their ma
nure. THOMAS SPEED.
CLAY MIXTURE ON SANDY LANDS.
A correspondent of the Western Fanner,
gives the following as his experience ofthe
value of mixed clay with sandy soil : Se
veral years since, when a resident of New
England, 1 purchased a piece of dry sandy
land, denominated there pine plains, that
had been very much worn. A portion of
it, about 1 3-4 acres, was oh the verge of a
deep ravine and a little more elevated than
the remainder of the lot. This piece had
been sown the fall previous to rye and
stocked with clover. The rye was harves
ted—an inferior crop—and the ground I
found in the fall to all appearance more
than half stocked. Not having manure for
a spring crop, and clay being handy, I car
ted on to the piece about thirty ox-cart loads
of clay ; this however was not pure, but
supposed to contain about one third sand;
the. same was spread upon the surface of
the ground in the fall. In the spring it had
formed a complete coating over the whole
surface—the result was a heavy clover
crop. The next spring about 20 loads yard
manure was spread upon it. It was then
broken up, rolled, harrowed and planted to
corn about the 10th of May. The result
was about ninety bushels of sound corn. I
had corn enough for my own use and sold
about fifty bushels for SSO. This was rny
first experiment in farming. It is nearly
eight years since the clay was applied and
I am told the ground is still henefitted by it.
The application was continued on other por
tionsof the lot with equally beneficial re
sults as long as I occupied it.

Consumption
AND
Liver Complaint •
DR. TAYLOR’S
BALSAM OF LIVERWORT
HAS been used successfully for eight years
in the cure of these diseases. ID” Re
member ! the original and genuine is made only
at 375 Bowery, N. Y., ALL others are spurious
and unauthorized !
Consumption and Liver Complaint! —As a
general remedy for these diseases I am fully sat
isfied, from long experience, there is no Medi
cine equal to Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort.
Being purely vegetable, it can be used with the
utmost safety by all persons in every condition
It cleanses the lungs by expectoration, relieves
difficult breathing, and seems to heal the chest.
There can be no question, but this medicine is a
certain cure for chronic coughs and colds. 1
have used it for four years in my practice, and
always with success.
A. F. ROGERS, M. D.
To Females. —The number of females in deli
cate health, is truly surprising. Weakness, loss
of appetite, liver complaints, and many other dis
eases, prey upon them, making them pale and
lean of flesh. All this can be remedied by the
use of strengthening medicine, that will assist
nature in all her movements, restore tone to the
nerves and muscular organs. Os this kind is
Dr. Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort, Which being
mild and purely vegetable, answers females ad
mirably. If ali will use it, we are confident an
elastic step, good appetite, and ruddy cheeks will
follow. Once more, remember, the original and
genuine is made at 375 Bowery.
D” Spitting if Blood. —Tins disease consists
of a discharge of blood, often frothy, from tiie
mouth, brought up with hawking and -coughing,
and is usually accompanied with difficulty of
breathing, and some pain in the chest. Some
times it is preceded by an oppression of the
chest, a dry tickling cough, and slight shooting
pains. This disease is always more or less dan
gerous. The great danger is that these symp
toms may terminate in consumption, and imme
diate remedies can alone save this end. But Dr.
Taylor’s Balsam ol’ Liverwort is a sure remedy,
and lo show its unparalleled success, certificates
of cures from 421 citizens, and many physicians,
will be published in a few days.
IET Nervous Diseases and Weakness. —Dr.
Taylor’s Balsam of Liverwort, made at 375 Bow
ery, is assuredly an excellent remedy for rhese
diseases. My wife has been more or less ill for
ten years. She was extremely nervous, and at
times so weak that she could not attend to her
domestic duties. By the use of this medicine,
her strength is wholly restored, and she is as
healthy as I can wisli her to be. My address id’
at Dr. Taylor’s office.
Cure of Consumption. —Mrs. Martin, a worthy
member of my congregation, was taken ill some
time since with a cold, pain in the breast, and
some difficulty of breathing, and in a tew days
thereafter, she had a violent cough and a violent
pain in the sides, which no medicine would re
lieve. She continued in this way lor a long
time, under the medical care of Dr. Rea, but fi
nally became consumptive, and was evidently
near the end of her earthly sufferings, when her
brother persuaded her to try Dr. Taylor’s Balsam
of Liverwort. When she commenced this med
icine, it did not seem to agree with her for a tew
days, but by lessening the dose, she found it an
swered admirably : it relieved her cough and her
difficulty of breathing instanter ; and we had the
pleasure of witnessing her rapid recovery to
health. Rev. WILLIAM SMYTHE.

PROPOSALS
FOR PUBLISHING BY SUBSCRIPTION
A FULL REPORT OF THE
GEOLOGICAL & AGRICULTURAL
SURVEY OF THF
©if
rtl HE Legislature, at their last session, deein-
JL ed it expedient to discontinue the salary of
the State Geologist, in consequence of the em
barrassed finances of the State. By this unex
pected movement, the subscriber is deprived of
the means of completing the survey of the State,
on the original plan: if done at all, it must be
at individual risk and expense.
It is needless, perhaps, to represent to the en
lightened citizens of Georgia, that by following
out the plan so happily commenced m 1837, ami
pursued with unremitting energy to the present,
the State‘has been contributing her mite, hum
ble as it may bo on the part of her agent, to the
cause oi general science in our country, and the
advancement of intellectual improvement among
her citizens, in accordance with other States of
the Union. There is but one alternative. In the
present situation ot the survey, the work must
either be abandoned and the important informa
tion obtained by four years investigation of the
Geology of the State, lost to tier citizens, ortho
subscriber must depend for support, on individ
ual patronage. He is determined to make au ef
fort for the benefit and honor of Ins adopted Slate,
to proceed with the survey. From former ex
perience of the unbounded liberality and gene
rous hospitality of his follow citizens, in differ
ent parts of the State, he is confident that, in
making an appeal to their sympathy and patron
age, it will not bo made in vain.
That a complete survey may be made ofthe re
maiuing counties of the State, and the whole
consolidated and published tor the information
and benefit ofthe citizens, public patronage is
most respectfully solicited. A work ofthiskind,
is much needed in Georgia, a State comprising
an arya of sixty thousand square miles, being
destitute of a single correct Map, Geography, or
history of the same. A majority of the citizens
must, from necessity', be unacquainted with the
rich mineral resources and agricultural capaci
ties of the different sections. Favored as the
subscriber has been, by four years labor, as
State Geologist, in different parts of the State,
in coiled irig materials for a complete report of
an Agricultural and Geological survey and Na
tural History, he trusts that he shall be able to
meet the approbation of his fellow citizens.
The subscriber pledges his honor, that the
proceeds arising from subscription tor the work
shall be appropriated to the completion of the
survey of the rernainiug counties of the State,
and that they shall be finished as they will be
needed for publication.
