We commend to farmers the sug gestion whether in place of buying material for a new fence, it would not be better to remove a fence that is doing no good. Perhaps you have none ; perhaps each one of your in terior fences is needed. If not needed it is doing you harm. It is protect ing weeds, it is perhaps giving home to woodchucks and mice; it is occu pying land that might be growing grass. We have in mind a farm where all interior and roadside fences are removed, except pasture fences. The grass fields do not extend only so far as where the roadside fence ordinarily is, but to the wheel tracks, thus giving the owners a strip of land more than twenty feet wide, and making the roadway smooth and beautiful. The mowing machine, leaves the field at any point, the load TWO GENUINE CASKS OF THIS (iORBI BLE DISEASE AT BLACKWELLS ISLAND HOSPITAL. of hay enters npou the hard road at SweetfPbtatoes 55 White Beans...; 58 Castor Beans 46 Clover Seed 60 Timothy Seed 46 Flax Seed u 56 Hemp Seed 44 Blue Grass Seed 14 Buckwheat : 52 Dried Peaches 38 Dried apples 24 Onions « 57 Salt 50 Stone coal 88 Malt 40 Bran 20 Turnips 55 Plastering Ilair 8 Unslacked Lime 80 Corn meal 48 Fine Salt 54 Ground Peas 32 Cotton Seed 30 the most con venient point; and when the land is plowed the furrow is carried near the roadbed where the horses are turned.

BERNARD, County School Commissioner. jmy.SO.St. How Prize Butter is Made. The dairy consists of three hun dred cows, mostly of native stock. The average distance of milk brought not to exceed two miles; received once a day, at a temperature of from sixty to sixty-five degrees. The principal feed is blue grass, red top and timothy. In the fall, quantities of green sowed corn are fed at night. The milk is set in uncovered vats, with four inches of water space on sides and bottom, through which spring water constantly flows to hold the temperature of the milk at sixty degrees. Tlte milk stood forty-eight hours, kept sweet and made a good quality of skim cheese. The cream was kept forty-eight hours, when it was slightly sour ; churned in a re volving dash churn, and required about one hour’s churning, and the butter gathered iu lumps the size of peas. The buttermilk was li awn off, and cold water poured iu to rinse thoroughly. The butter was then taken out aud salted, 1 hree-fourths of an ounce to the pound, the salt be ing worked in so thoroughly as tore- quire very little working the second time.

New York, July 26.—Two cr.se* of genuine leprosy are reported in the Blackwell’s Island Hospital, One of them is tco sore to move, sa\y. when it is positively neces-arv. The other, although much further ad vanced in tie disoas*, and almost sure to waste away within another year, is at present as lively as * cricket, but being loathed even by the worst syphilitic patients in the same ward, keeps to his corner, and sees no more of the outside worU than he can get by looking from tj»e window, which commands a view otf the east channel of the river, wirtt the ding; bsick walls and black chimney-stacks of Hunter’s Point and a few Astoria villas in the distance. Sould it be desired to drain a de pression in a field where the subsoil is of a clayey or hard pan nature, thus preventing the sinking of the water, and the lay of the land is unfavorable for ordinary draining, first dig a hole aa if for a well, through the impervious stratum at the bottom, fill it up with refuse stone, remove the excavated earth so as to allow a sort of basin and a free accc 's of water to the pit, and stand ing water will never injure the grass crop in that part of the field. In this manner many comparatively useless pieces of land may he utilized and made to produce a good crop, besides there are on nearly every farm immense lots of stone, useless for building purposes, that can he made to answer a good purpor e in this way. If the dirt is infested with insects and the plants dying, remove the plant from the pot, shake the dirt carefully from the roots, get good, rich, fresh earth and repot the plant. If all the wagon scales that tlie Fairbanks Scale Company have built, were placed in one continuous line the result would he a plank road from Boston to Philadalpliia. This fact carries considerable weight, with it. These are the first lepers ever ad*, milted to this hospital, and they have been there only a short time. One of them, Abraham Brown, is a Mew Yorker by birth, and is fifty-four years ol 1. The other, Emilio Treu- al, is a native of Santiago de Cuba, and only nineteen years old. Trerail has been afflicted ahow* five years, and is now thought to be in the last stages ot the disease hav’itg occasional fevers . Brown hatM,he disease in n ment acute form, and, although it is let* than t wo year-' since lie fit-ai- entered the Baltimore City Hospital, the dis*> ease has so invaded his whole body that h2 presents a frightful appear ance. His hands and feet are altno.x black aud covered with ulcer*. Hie fingers arc emerged to nearly three- times their former size so that list en ds stand apart like t he claws of a fowl. His nulls have i illen om ; Lit. face is not so badly swollen, but hit features have an expression des pair that makes it painful to look .u him. Nearly all his be-trd ha* follei. off’. Tlte luir of his head is thin, dry and lustroless atul his eyebrowsa>« perfectly bare. Around the iris of each eye is an indistinct, light, yellow- ring, about a twelfth of an inch ie width, and tlte peculiar leonine ap pearance always noticeable in lepers is-well marked. Brow:', brought hi* leprosy from Cuba, whither lie wem in 1855, remaining there abou’ uine years. Ilis case seems the more de plorable for the reason that he is an old New Yorker; that he is an in telligent man ; that he lias led an up right life ; but above all, fiom the fact that he feels se keenly that he ir an object of unive<s:t! loathing. one cares to go near him except the physicians, who have, not the slight est fear, being satisfied that the dis ease is not and r . vet- was contagions Prc-emlnon As an elesnnt hair dressing stands Parker’s Hair Balsam, deservedly popular for the beautiful hair i: pro duces, and its healthful, cl*'ai:s«iiig and healing properties. Commen cing at the roots, it promotes a luxu riant growth of young hair, and un failingly restores gray or faded hair to its original youthful eo.'or, giving a soft, reh and lustrous appearance of great beauty. It is pleasantly cooling to these.vlp, cleanses it from Dandruff, cures itching and humors, and stops hilling of the hair. It is perfectly harmless, exqu si'elv peifumed, nev er soils tlte skin or j;unis the hair, and pleases every oily by its many excellent and attractive qualities. Buy a bottle from your druggist.
