Through the medium of the »»p the element*
of nutrition received from the rooU ere con-
vexed to the leevc* to undergo e prooee* of di
lation for eraimiUtion or conversion to the
different ti«*ue« of the plant. The leave* have

Btmoephere, end appropriating to the ns* of
the plant what ia wholesome and nutritious,
and returning to the air whai U weteaa or ob,

pitot th* room extend in number, and go oat tn
ho Arch of food.
What I with eapedally to armt yonr atton-
tion i» the number, quality and disposal of the
root* formed in comparison with the poverty
or fertility of tho noil. When *eeda germinate,
root* are *t find formed without reference to
the quality of the aoil in which they are planted.
When the plant arrive* at a certain atAge of de-
vclopment, rooU am formed in nnmber and
quality aooordiug to the paucity or abundaace
of food with which they are RnppUed. Where
the aoil ia naturally nch, or artificially mad*
ho an immenae number of roota and rootlet®
are aenl forth, extending comparatively but a
short dialance from the plant.
You have observed that when a hill of corn or
cotton la manured in a circumscribed locality,
the manure ia matted with short fibrous roots
almost Infinite in nntnlior, whereas, the ad
jacent hill, a few foet distant, not fertilized,
vends out a comparatively few, long, slender,
attenuated roots, extending almost incredible
diatsnoee in search of food. “The root* of
com which in a rich and tenacions earth ex
tend tint two or three feet, have been traced to
a length of ten or fifteen feet in a light, sandy
soil. Few in nnmber and feeble in organiza
tion, when ones severed by the plow or hoc, it
ia w«b difficulty Ibat they are replenished, and
.ho plant la cheeked in its growth, and often
.beds it* froiL Where the soil U rich, tbs loaa
of a few rooU l* scarcely felt, for in an in-
crdibly abart time new rooU spring np, as by
magic, and the plant pursue* iu onw»rd conrse
of development without feeling the shock.
PlanU have the faculty of decomposing sails
of limo, potash, magnsslaand iron, found in an
insoluble stale tn minerals imbedded in the
esrlli, and appropriating these alkalies, and
alkali earths to their own nae.
Agricultural science teaches ns that the plant
in its ash analysts I* composed of various acids,
alkalies, and salts, which are derived from de
composed vegetable mailer, as well ea from
mineral subsUncca in the soil. These ssh in-
gredienU aro shown to lie necessary to the
growth and perfection of tho plant, for they are
mdeatrnotiblo in the process of combustion.
The art o( culture consists, then, in supplying
the plant with the right kind of food, and in the
use of each mechanical means ts will enable it
to discharge all of iU functions, so aa to appro
priate (lie elements of nutrition to iU utmost
rapacity, ami with the least impediment to iu
I .effect development. This ia accomplished by
l>erfnct drainage, thorough pulverization of the
subsoil, booing, end where long continued til
lage has deprived the soil of its fertilizing prop-
ertiea, by resting, rotation of eropa, and manur
ing. It wonld l,e interesting and instructive to
dwell at length npon these different topios, bnt
each of them should be the subject of * separate
Vionograpli. We must, therefore, pass on, and
throw out a few hints with reference to the
lieat method of reanacilating worn out, or natu
rally aterile soils.
An economical and judieioua method of pro
longing the natnrel fertility of soils, is by prope
rotation of crop*. Different plantH require va
riable >10*011110* of organic and inorganic mat
ter. Home plants, soon aa peas, clover find In-
come, demand a liberal supply of nitrogen
which they draw largely from the atmosphere
anil rain water, and Uiercfore do not require, to
snob a degree aa other plants,' the application to
tho mil of highly atimnlaUng manures. Wheat
derives its nitrogen in the form of ammonia,
chieily from the soil and very little from the air.
Cure delights in phosphorio acid, potash and a
fair proportion of ailicate of potash, to impart
strength and durability to the stalks. Cotton
consumes bm a small quantity of eilioo, bnt de
light* In phosphorio acid, lime, potash, and •
modicum of lion, lloot crops tlonriah admits
bly npon the phosphate of lime, ashes and
land plotter, with a moderate allowance of am-
monln. By, therefore, becoming acquainted
with the quality of the food required by differ
ent plant*, and observing their relative, thrift
upon the same aoil, wo are enabled to ascertain
(he special kind of fertilizer with which to sup
ply to each, and tho principles wlueh sbonld
govern ns in the rotation of crops. A proper
rotation of earn, cotton, poas and small grain,
wonld greatly relievo onr lands from the ex-
hansting effect* of tho plan usually pursued in
this section of country, where resting and the
application of appropriate mannres is imprseti-
bi*.
It was formerly maintain.d, that plants have
the faculty of excreting or throwing off into the
noil matters which are nneaenUal or detrimental
to th^r own growth, bnt which might be con
sumed as healthy food by other cl oases of
plsnta. More recent experiments, however,
show that this may be true to a limited extent,
but to eo insignificant a degree aa to be of very
little practical utility. By observing proper ro
tation, however, eooording to the indications
enunciated above, land Ibat is not thoroughly
worn ont may be materially benefited and main
tained for many yean in a condition of fair
fertility, without the direct annua] appliealion
of manure*. In the older oonntriea of the East,
where the art of enltnre ho* reached its highest
degree of perfection, it is said that two snoees-
oive crop* of a similar kind are seldom raised
npon the aam* aoil. Hence by akillfnl enltnre
and jndieiona manuring the soil ia made pro
gressively to improve from year to year, instead
of annually becoming more impoverished.
The recapenlion of land by fitting, whore
the soil ia naturally poor ar.d devoid of much
vegetable matter, is of doubtful utility, when
we take into consideration the expense of keep
ing np tba fenoieg around such land; for tho
amount of weeds and grass produced ia ao in
significant that we would hardly be repaid for
the ontley in annual repairs. We should com
mence to rest snob land before it begin* to fail,
if we should hope to materially improve Its con
dition. On the contrary, land that was origin
ally rich in vegetable mould, as well aa in min
eral deposits, even when greatly exhausted by
unremitting cultivation, very soon recovers a
good degree of fertility; for although exhausted
of its vegetable mould, the mineral treasures
that lie imbedded in iu bosom and npon its sur
face enable it to sccnmnlate a sufficient amount
of vegetable matter to restore the hnmns which
has been abstracted, and protect it from the
leaching effects of heavy rains, aa well aa from
intense solar beat. Hnch land naturally close
tn its texture, and having become hard and al
most impervious to water, by long oontinned
close and dean Ullage, very soon becomes soft
and mellow, at well ae enriched in organic pro
ducts. To derive the full benefit of this system,
it is neeeamiy that cattle, and especially hog*,
ahonld not bo permitted to pasture neon such
land.
The foundation of the palaoaof King Cotton,
the cornucopia that poors its golden treasures
into the lap of the husbandman ia nwiawr*.
Ever since the greet change tn oar social, po
luteal and pecuniary condition, we hove been
striving to recuperate cor fallen fortune* npon
the plan panned by onr rather* when they had
absolute control of their laborers, and pomeased
n soil comparatively in it* virgin state. The
aoareity of money, the exorbitant rate of inter
est demanded for it* naa, and the continued im-
of the -
Wo rihonld be careful to tow inch seeds
produce the largest amount of vegetable matter
in the shot teat rime, and which will be moat read
ily produced by the aoil to be renovated. Thus
Income and clover wonld not be suitable for
sandy land, beoeua* they require a liberal allow
ance of potash, lime and phosphoric add, and
a do* proportion of tho elements of ammonia
for their growth and perfection. Wo would be
compellkl to tupply these Ingredients artificially
before we ooald snooeed in obtaining an amount
of vegetable matter to be made available. For
the thinner lands of thia section, the nae of rye
and peas wonld be far preferable, both of which
crops can be sustained npon a comparatively
small quantity of nutrition* food. How down a
crop of rye in tho fall, and when twelve inches
high apply per acre ISO pounds of land plaster,
then plow onder with the rye a crop of peas.
When the Utter begins to form its fruit turn it
under, and about the tint of July, spread broad
cast from 150 to 200 pounds of the acid phos
phate of lime, and again sow with peas to be
ploughed under at the same stage of its growth
as the former crop of peas. It ia not advisable
to wait until the peas are even half ripe, because
when the pUnt ia In foil flower, every pari of it
U folly freighted with nutritious matter, which,
at a later stage of its development, wonld be
transferred to tbe fruit, and thus diminish the
aggregate amount of fertilizing material*. By
this process of manuring, yon return to the soil
the elements of nutrition with which it was
originally supplied, in it* natural stage, and
thn* obtain a manure that is permanent in ita
results.

A GREAT MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
MILLIONS Bcnr Testimony to the
Wonderful Curative Effects of
MR. WALKER’S CALIFORNIA
VINEGAR BITTERS
D A Co, DrecgUta and
Vinegar Bitters aro not a rile Fancy Brink.
Made of Poor Rnn».-* Whiskey* Proof Spirits
and Refuse Liquors doctored, spiced and sweet
ened to please the taste, called “Tonics,* “Appetiz
er*,’’ “ Restorer*," &c., that lead tho tippler on to
drunkenness and ruin, bnt are a true Medicine, made
from the Native Boots and Herbs of California, free
from nil Alcoholic Stimulants, They are the
GREAT BLOOD PURIFIER and A LIFE
GIVING PRINCIPLE, a perfect Renovator and
Invlgorator of the System, carrying off all poisonous
matter and restoring the blood to a healthy condition.
No person can take these Bitten according to direc
tions and remain long unwell, provided their bones
are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means,
and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of re
pair. • '-7
They are a Gentle Fargntive nff wen ci a
Tonic, possessing also, the peculiar merit of acting
as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or inflam
mation of the Liver, and all the Visceral Organs.
FOR FEMALE COMPLAINTS, whether In
young or old, married or single, at the dawn of wo
manhood or at the turn of life, theso Tonic Bitters have
no equal.
/'For Inflammatory nnd Chronic Rheuma
tism and Goat, Dyspepsia, or Indigestion,*
Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, 1
Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys, and
Bladder, these Bitters have been most successful.!
Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood, 1
which Is generally produced by derangement of tho
Digestive Organs, w
DYSPEPSIA OR INDIGESTION, Head
ache, Fain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of tho
Chest, Dizziness, Bcnr Eructations of tho Stomach,
Bad taste in the Month, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation
of the Heart, Inflammation of tho Lungs, rain in tho
regions of tho Kidneys, and a hundred other painful
symptoms, aro tho offsprings of Dyspepsia.
They Invigorate tho Stomach and stimulate the tor
pid liver and bowels, which render them of unequalled
efficacy In cleansing the blood of all Impurities, and
Imparting new life and vigor to tho whole system.
FOR SKIN DISEASES,Eruptions, Tetter, Salt
Rheum, Blotches Spots. Pimples, Pustules, Boils, Car
buncles, King-Worms, Scald-Head, Sore Eyes, Erisip-
clas, Itch, Scurft, Discolorations of tho Skin, Humors
and Diseases of tho Skin, of whatever name or nature,
are literally dug np and carried out of the system In a
short time by the use of these Bitters. Ono bottle in
such cases will convince tho most incredulous of their
curative effect. O
Cleanse tho Vitiated Blood'whenever yon find Its
Imparities bursting through the skin In Pimples. Erup
tions or Sores, cleanse it when you find it obstructed
