A Composition on Chickens. : ' | BY A LOUISVILLE BOY. ! y ‘Most usually it takes two eggs for to make a chicken, because, if you will put eighteen eggs under a hen, only about nine of ’em will hateh. - A lien: is so careless and stubborn that most likely she: won’t cover her eggs all over, and so they get chilled; then they are everlastingly gone up. Also, the rats will rob anest; so that, if you get half of abrood, it is a tol’able crop, and you should be thankful.— Then, I think, it stands to reasen this ought to prove what I said at first. A hen which has got a young family is more crosser than anythingelse which can be compared with her under the sun in the United States. There never was a thing which can rufile its feathers up backward and rage worse than a fool hen. - A turkey gobbler will do it, but he don’t go off into a red-het passion about it, and niake a fool of himself, and zét enemies all for nothing, like a hen would, A chicken in the' spring-time which was put to hateh in March, it it has good luek and dop’t die of the pip, or gaps, or the chvlera-morbus, or get drowned or something, will bej big enough to sell to the restaurant about'in June.—-

They will feteh $6 a ‘dozen, and a chicken is more poputar where it is a spring chicken-than if it would live long enough to getas tough as Methuselem. They saythat aspring chicken is & luxurious thing for to broil and mix up with toast. ,That’s what 1 Hheard. Onee in a great while we have spring chickens for dinner. Then we have the preacher, ors else some company, and T eat at the second-hand table, and I can always tell by the savory smell going on in the kitchen that broiled chicken ought to be good enough for anybody. " But if I can’t get something to eat more substantialler than a smell T always fall back on roast beef. -~ A chicken don’t gather shrewdness like an owl, and it never picks up gny wisdom. It is not a talented thing like a fox. If you can show mé a more stupider thing than a hen I wish you would trot her out.— The rooster lias got what little sense there ever was in the family. It is one of the worst difficulties with achicken that she don’t know its place. She won't stay in the barn-yard, where shie belongs, any way you can fix It. It Your mother has got flower beds in the front yard-—and it's a mighty- curious mother which ain’t—every last chicken on the place will get in to seratch them, if it takes till next Chiristmas;” and then good bye to the Eyvacinthes, and crocuses, and jerryanthems, and all that kind of foolishness. Then is the time you want to have two jackets on, or else to forget to come home early, if it was you which left the lattice gate open. Anyhow, that’s my advice. " Also, & hen is hard-hearted and cruel, and will kil every little desolated stray chicken who tries to associate ‘'with her own brood, and this is a good enough reason why she is like a step-mother, If she gets a fair-hold of a little chicken to shake it by the nap of the neck it will never kick. again in this community more than twice: The frequentest bad habit which a hen has got is £oing off to the neighbors to lay; but it is generally chronic for a hen to ‘do it, and the way for to cure her is to cut her head off an'd hoil her down into soap. She won’t go to the neighbors to Ley many times after that, I don’t think. ;

, Indiana Crop Reporis. " i : The wide variation of reports from different parts of the State make summarizing difficult; but the following, based on sixty reports from five sources; will be fi)un(?l nearly correct: Wheqt.—Acreage unchanged or inappreciably increased. : A good deal winter-killed, -and of the remainder some running from a third to twothirds below the average. This in some measare is atoned for by exceptionably favorable sliowing at the places. Spring rains have | eonsiderably brightened “the prospeets of three weeks ago. Nevertheless, a probable decrease, approximating 10 ‘or 12 per cent. botlf on the ayerage to the acre and the aggregate yield may be looked for. Chinch abundant. o Corn—There is a very largely increased acreage planted, ranging from 14 to 17 per celit, on a fair estimate. The planting season was moderately tavorable, but recent reports do not warrant expectations of an' average crop. Cut-worms abundant. ; . Oats—ln some lécalities a largely increased breadth sown; in others a diminished acreage, so that there fs probably;no material change. - Reports vary widely. lln some places the:crop. has been affécted by drought ; in others the seed rotted in the ground; in others the spring rains have compensated for the eaply disadvantages of the season. - It is safe to predict a fair average and -an increased aggregate vield. S : Flax generally looks well ;: potatoes are abundant -(also Colorado. bugs;) clover badly winter-killed ; fruit prospects very ' fair, though not so extremely favorable as a month ago; tobacco, badly attacked by worms and bugs, promises to fall a long way below the average. :

Nature’s Cathartie. : No megicipe is needed to keep the bowels in order as long as mature’s cathartie, the bile, flowss freely and regularly from its source in the liver, and is of the right strength and quality. But the great biliary gland is casily disordered, and the consequences of its irregularities are serious.: To bring it back to its natural condition when thus affected, IHostetter’s Stomach Bitters: should be taken at least twice a.day until the desired obJect is attained.| Constipati& is due to a scant supply of bile, or o a lack of the stimulating element. in that fluid. ' In either case, mere purgation is useless. The liver must Be compelled to yield the supply of bile necessary to remove 'the -waste-m{lltterr from the systemn at least onfcé |in twenty-four hours before a radical cure of costiveness can be accomplished. Hostetter’s Bitters praduces this effect. Its action upon the stomach and liver is direct and salutary, and through these organs it regulates and invigorates the whole frame. [nG-4w

Epidemic Hog Cholera. A correspondent writes from Carh/p)n),(l;n]o, 111., to the Chicago Tribune: “The hogs in this and surrounding counties are being rapidly decimated by cholera, which has become epidemical. Many farmers have lost their entire herds. It respec‘ts neither age nor breed; all alike fall vietims to its terrible energy. The putrid, maggoty carcasses of: dead swine ' cross the traveler’s path wherever he goes; and the stench that fills his nostrils causes him to wish himself elsewhere. The various nostrums. foisted upon the farmerg—as -infallible remedies have thus far proved worthless. The fell destroyer still continues his work with anabated fury, leaving but few living hogs along his line of march.” = -

-%i = I ' wrCARBITTE i ‘ INECARBITTER S PRGr */* :: \"V7 SR \‘ AN & PNt Z\ / 2 A o RN VN . 3 2 L N=s XA\ it S V== AL VE R R Dr. J. Walker’s California Yinegar Bitters are a purely Veg etablepreparation, made chiefly from the native herbs found on the lower ranges of the Sierra Nevada moun: tains of :California, the medieinal, propertits of which are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked, “ What is the cauge of the unparalleled success of ViNecar BiuTERS ?? Our answer is, that they remove the »ause .of disease, and the patient recovers L's health. They are. the great blood parifier and a life-giving principle. a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of VixEGAR BITTERS in Lealing the sick of every disease man is heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as 'a Tonie, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases : The properties of Dr. WaALRER'S VINEGAR Brrrers ave Aperient. Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant, Sudorific, Alterative, and Anti-Bilious. . Grateful Thousands proclaim 'VINEGAR BITTERS the most wonder-' ful Invigorant that ever sustained the sinking system. o No Person can take these Bitters according to directions, and remain long. unwell, provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison or other means, and vital organs wasted beyond repair. . Bilious, Remittent, and Intermittent -Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, Illinois, Tennessee, Cumberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah, TRoanoke, James, and many. others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during seasons of‘unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by cxtensive derangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. -In their treéatnient, a purgative, exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to DR. J. WALKER'S VINEGAR Brrrers, as they will speedily remove the dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy funetions of the digestive organs.

Fortify the body-against disease by pwrifying all its fluids with VINEGAR Birrers. No epidemic can take hold of'a system thus fore-armed. Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Headache, Pain in the Shoulders, : Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizziness, Sour Eructations of the Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, Inflammation of the Lungs, Pain in theregion of the Kidneys, and a hundred other painful ‘symptoms, are the offsprings of Dyspepsia. One bottle will prove a better guarantece of its merits than a lengthy advertisement. Scrofula, or King’s Evil, White Swellings, Uleers, Erysipelas, ‘Swelled Neck; Goitre, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial affections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore liyes, ete. In these, as in all other constitutional Diseases, WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS have shown their greajeTr= ative powers in the most obstinate and intractable cases. 8 | For Inflammatory and Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers, Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, tliese Bitters have no equal. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood. Mechanical Diseases.—Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Gold-beaters and Miners, as they advance in life, ‘are subject to paralysic of the Bowels. To guard against this, take a dose of WALKER'S VINEGAR BrrrTeßrs occasionally. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tetter, Salt-Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples, Pustiles, Boils, Carbuncles, Ringworms, Scald-head, Sere Eyes, Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin of whatever ‘'name or nature, are literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many theusands, are effectually destroyed and re-’ moved. No system of medicine, no vermifuges, no -anthelminitics will free the system from worms like these Bitters. For Female Complaints, in young or old, married or single, at the dawn of womanhood, orthe turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that improvernent is soon perceptible. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through theskin in Pimples, Eruptions, or Sores; cleanse it when you find'it obstructed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it when it is foul; your feelings will tel you when. . Keep the blood Yure, and the health of the system will follow. R. H. McDONALD & CO., Drugaists & Gen. Agts., San Francisco, Califor nia, & cor. of Washington and Charlton Sts.
