The plough used by the India
farmer consists of a metal point
fastened on a rough crutch of wood,
the whole costing about thirtysix
cents. With thie implement and
the cheap labor of the country, In•
dia is competing with Europe and
America to supply the wheat mark•
ets of the world ; and the chief hope
or western nations in the rivalry
lies in the use of the best Labor-sav-
ing appliances and the quickest and
cheapest ways of transportation.
What the issue will be when the
India farmer takes to the use of the

DYyr'Itl'BIA CURE I,
Mr. R. Walker, of Waterford, says :—
"Dyspepsia has been my wife's trouble for
a long time past, and she has suffered
greatly with at; but, thanks to Dr. Oar-
sou'e Stomach Bitters, she is completely
cured.. It acted very nicely, and did not
sicken or gripe her while taking it. If
people only knew abort the Carson ,Stour -
nob Bitters there would not be so much
suffering in the world."
As scaly leg is contagious, the
affected birds should be doctored
before the complaint is general.

sltrt1 PROTECTION.
The maintenance of n healthy state of
the system is the surest protection against
disease ; experience has shown that by the
use of Dr. Carson's Stomach and Constipa-
tion Bitters, a perfect state of health can
be assured. It frees the system from all

On allnoet epery fecin there are
waste Ogees where trees migut be
eatning dollars for their owners,
growing by ' he brook, or the river,
or on hill sides and overhanging
cliffs, too steep for cultivation ; and
there are at least tt half-dozen odcl
days in every season when the
planting work might be c.:'rie ou
—when no other work of equal val-
ue is crowding the hueban'.tnun.
The greatest trouble with apple
growers is the gathering of 1110 fruit
eepecially upon tall trees, 01' with
Genie of the varieties, su011 as the
Red Astrachan which do not ripen
evenly. It was our pleasure it few
days ago to try it simple invention
that will do away with most of the
above trouble, and the breaking of
branches, as is often the case under
the old method of climbing trees.
The implement is a small tin pail
having wire prongs around the edge
between which the stock of the
apple is caught and broken, the
fruit dropping into the pail. As
the distance to fall is short, there
ie no danger of bruising, but with
delicate varieties a small piece of
flannel or cloth clan be placed in
the bottom of the picker. There is
a socket beneath for fixing it upon
a light pole, the length of which
will of course depend upon the
height of the trees, The best plan
is to have two poles, one to reach
the lower, and a long one for the
higher branches, but, in either
ease, the poles should be long
enough fur the operator to keep his
elbows on a level with his chest,
else the work will be more fatigu•
ing. With a lew minutes' practice,
a person can go over en orchard,
selecting the finer specimens with-
out any damage to the remainder
of the fruit left upon the trees.
The patent is the invention of W.
W. Burcbees, of Mimics, and
simple as the implement looks it
took years of anxious thought to
perfect the idea. For many years
fruit•growers have been desirous of
gettiug a reliable picker. Several
have been brought, but were not
found practicable 'But in the
"Pioneer Fruit Picker," we have
an article that has dome to stay.
By ha aid peaches, plume, pears
and apples can be gathered without
fear of bruising the fruit. Its cap-
acity is about two quarts.
