Time to tut tiraiui. The hay crop, according to tho last census, cannot bo estimated at loss than $400,000,000, and this Immense aggregate bliows the importance of husbanding the great resource in tho best manner. Wo shall not overstate the fact if we say that 25 per cent, of the hay crop is lost by late cutting. Nature, in her effort to perfect the seeds in all our cereal grains and grasses, accomplishes this at the ex pense of the nutriment contained in the stulk. In fact, it may be nssumed as true, that at the time or blossom ing the stalk contains all the nutri ment that the seed and stalk contain after ripening, and therefore that nothing has been gained by allowing the seod to ripen, unless in the ease of cereal grains, which are most valu able for their seed. As the seed ripens, the soluble food constituents are taken from tho stalk to perfect the seed. Chemical analysis lias shown that clover, just before blos soming, contained only 28 per cent, of insoluble woody fibre, but immedi ately after blossoming 48 por cent, of insoluble ilbre. All experiments tend to show that our grass crops intended for fodder should be cut and oured into hay before nature has commenced tho formation of seed. Therefore, the proper time for cutting grass for hay is the commencement of blossoming. There ismoro sap in it at this time,and consequently it requires more curing: but each ton of hay cured is worth at least 23 per cent, more as nutriment for stock than after the seed forms. Hay is also injured by being too much exposed to the rays of the sun. This causes the volatile aroma to escape, und also dissipates much of tho coloring matter, as may be scon by the bleaching, and also by feeding to milch cows, from which the milk nnd butter will be light-colored. Here eoines in tho value of tho hay cap, which protects tiie hay cock from the rays of the sun, and allows it. to cure with tho tine green color preserved. We write thus early that our readers may havo their attention called to this important matter in season. It is one of those subjects that seem to require reiteration more than almost any other. The farmer is conservative of old habits. He lias heard many say that ripe hay goes further —spends better. Yes, and brush would last still longer for fod der. The poorest fodder undoubt dly lasts the longest, but not the cattle. — Fanner's Union. Harvest Prospect* la Knirlauil. Mr. Jas. Sanderson, said to be relia ble authority, writes to the London Times under a late date : “The numerous predictions of an early harvest this year have not been fulfilled. The almost continuous rainfall during the last fortnight hus greatly retarded the maturing of llie crops, and even with the most favor able weather harvest will not be gen eral in the southern, eastern and mid land counties before tile middle of August. The wheat crop has suffer ed severely from the heavy rains of tho present week, and is more twist ed and beaten down than any crop since 186'J. On the extensive Fen area--usually the best wheat produc ing area- the damage is very serious. The crop is laid flat to the ground, as if rotted, and the finest weather will not raise itagain. Wheat, generally, is thinly planted, and apart from the damage by rain its yield would have been short of the greatly overestima ted crop of last year. As it is. the yield must beamier average, and the quality inferior. From the excess of moisture and the absence of bright sunshine rust is prevailing.” COLUMIUJS Female College!

Tobacco, Ac. MiKVOI * OKIIII.ITV. Tho Proas, the Pulpit ami tlio Lecture room are silent tin the subject of this disease. A false delicacy withholds a knowledge in regard to vio lation of Physiological Laws, and life-wrecks shattered humanity, insanity, and premature graves till tho world, No race, nation or posi tion is exempt from tbe soul-destroying scourge. Sleepless nights, twitching of tho lunacies, trembling of the limbs, poor appetite, easily dis turbed by noise or exeiteineut, pimples and blotches on the face, desire to avoid company, pe culiar sensation over the whole body are among the difficulties which attend this complaint. The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills will in a short time so cleanse the blood and soothe the nerves, aud restore strength to the body, as to make life enjoyable aud happy. EPILKI’SY OH FITS. No other remedy will cure Epilepsy or Fits so quickly as the Cordial Halm of Syricum and Tonic Pills. Kidney Diseases and many other difficulties are cured by the use of the Cordial Balm of Syrup ami Tonic Pills. If the watery portions of our food are not pass ed off, they must, when retained in the system, produce serious difficulties. Language fails when attempting to describe the sufferings of per sons whose kidneys are out of order : gravel, back-ache, inflammation of the bladder and of the delicate membranes of tho urinary organs are the result if the water is not regularly and properly carried through the kidneys. The Cordial Balm of Syricum is effectual in promoting the secretion of the wa tery ami uunutritious portions of the food, and in carrying it <>ff by its proper outlets. Whatever portion of our food is una#viceable should be passed off in the water in sweat, and from the bowels. If these useless matters are retained disease is sure to follow, for then the blood becomes poisoned with the impurities which should puss off in their proper channels. The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills Is a powerful cleanser of the blood; It starts the. liver aud kidneys into active operation, and acts on all the secretions of the body, it carries off old and foul elements in the blood, which are slow ami sure death if allowed to remain in the system. DU TJTSr ItEiVTESS. THE CORDIAL HALM OF SYRI CUM AND TONIC FILLS is the only remedy that has ever proved by prac tical experience a b m-ht to those who suffer from over-indulgence in A.coh lie Liquors, it com pletely destroys lie last, s for them, amt restores the victim t> h. adn ami vigor, A single trial will prove it to be just what it is recommended to he. MORPIIIKTE. j THE CORDIAL HALM OF SYRI CUM AND TONIC FILLS is a sure cure for the habitual use of Mor phine, so extensively used in this country as a stimulant. It will in a very short time com pletely destroy the desire for tills narcototic. We have many testimonials from tho first fami lies iu Europe and America, who testify to its efficacy. OPIU M. The alarming increase of the use of this most pernicious drug as u stimulant, by male and fe male, ami its peculiar effects, completely destroy ing the digestive apparatus and shattering the nervous system, effeminating and debasing the mind, renders The Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills of inestimable value, as it completely destroys all desire for this most baneful drug, and restores the nerves to a perfectly healthy state, even in cases where opium has been used iu large quanti ties aud for a number of years. (Davenport Democrat, Davenport, lowa.] j How few people arc found without some indi cations of nervous disease. This truth has been recognized ever since classic ages, when a sound mind in a sound body was held as the perfection of human existence. Home from congenial dis ease. others from youthful Indiscretions, some from alcoholic indulgence or too free use of to bacco. suffer from tremor, palpitation of nervous excitement—all of which can be removed and per manently cured by tho English Remedy, tbe Cor dial Balm of Syricum, which lias long been In tho old country the favorite remedy, and which, since its introduction into this country, has dis tanced all other medicines having the same ob ject in view. Boston, July 15, 1874. Dn. G. E. Loth bop: Dear Sir—-I beg to Inform you that I have been troubled with Nervous Debility for the past twelve years, and have been unable to obtain any relief until I purchased a package of the Cordial Balm of Kyricum at Mr. Duncan s drug store, corner of Leverett and Green streets. The benefit derived from the use of one package so far exceeded my expectations that I address you this for publication, that other suffers may avail themselves of the oppor tunity to be cured. Yours truly, John Tuttlk, Boston P. 0. Lancaster, May 14, 1873. Pb. G. E. LOTHBOP: Dear Hir—l have used up all tbe Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills that you let me have when you first undertook my cure, and I am glad to be able to inform you that, thus far, I have derived greater benefit from it than from any ether medicine I have ever taken in my life. I sleep better, and daily go about my work without hesitation or fear. My I nerves are getting steadier every day. and if I continue to improve as fast as I havo done for the last few months since I have been taking your medicine, I have no doubt but that I shall soon again be a well man. With many thanks for tho good you have done me, I enclose $25 for which please send me as before, five more bottles of the Syricum and Pills, an I intend to keep up the use • of them until fully cured, as I believe I shall be.
