COLD STARCH. 
Allow me to recommend a simple and easy 
way of “ doing up shirt bosoms,” which I have 
practiced for years, with good success. Instead 
of boiling the starch, I merely wet it up in cold 
water, allowing one teaspoonful starch to a little 
more than a half pint of water—the proportion is 
easily decided by experience. When I am ready 
to iron, I wet the linen in this starch, wring it out 
and dry it off with a clean, thin cloth between it 
and the iron—then iron immediately in the usual 
way. The cooler the iron, the glossier the linen, 
providing it is hot enough to cook the starch, 
and not paste and soil the bosom. 
The principal advantages of this method are a 
saving, not only of time and trouble, but of starch, 
as all that happens to be left may be saved by sim¬ 
ply pouring off the water and drying the starch, 
which may be used again. Some people complain 
that linen, ironed in this manner, will be of a pa¬ 
pery stiffness and liable to break easily, but this is 
owing to too stiff starch, and can be easily obvi¬ 
ated by diluting with more water. When this is 
necessary, it can be ascertained by dipping the 
linen in, and, if on wringing the starch looks floury 
on the cloth, it is too thick. 
Perhaps I have been too minute, but each direc¬ 
tion is the record of experience; and the tyro in 
the dreaded art of “fine ironing” may not deem 
particulars unimportant. Libbie.

shriveled, harsh ami dry, or worse still, if sprinkled with gray, nature 
will lose more than half her cln.rms. Prof Wood’s Hair Restorative

to all such an ornament- Read the following aud judge. The writer

Dear Sir ,—Permit me to express to you the obligations I am 
under 'or the entire restoration of my hair to its original color : abont 
tlie time of my arrival in the United States it was rapidly becoming 
gray, but upon the application of your “ Hair Restorative" it soon 
recovered its original hue. I consider your Restorative aa a very

received a bottle of your Hair Restorative and gave It my wife, who 
concluded tq try It on her hair, little thinking at the time that it would 
restore the gray hair to its original color, hilt to her as well as my 
Burprhe, after a few weeks’ trial it has performed that wonderful ef¬ 
fect by turning all the gray hairs to a dark brown, at the same time 
beautifying and thickening the hair. I strongly recommend the above 
Restorative to all persons in want of such a change of their hair.

I N order to advance the Interests of Agriculture more effectually 
than I can by spending money In attending publio trials, whica 
often are very unsatisfactory to the public, 1 offer tbe following 
premiums: 
1st,—ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS 
To the farmer who shall cut the greatest number of acresof grass and 
grain, in the shortest time, in the best manner, and with the least ex¬ 
pense, witli Ketehum’s f’omblood Machine, manufactured this year, 
daring the ensuing harvest. 
2d.—ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS 
To tlio farmer who shall cut with any Ketchmn Combined Machine, 
not less than fifty acresof gras* and flfly acresof grain in like manner. 
3d,—ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS 
To the farmer who shall cut ono hundred acres of grass, with aoy 
Ketchuni Mower, In like manner. 
4th,—FIFTY DOLLARS 
To the farmer, who shall cut fifty acres of grass, in like manner, with 
any Ketchum Mower. 
5th.—TWENTY-FIVE DOLLARS 
To the farmer, who shall harvest twenty acres of clovai seed, with any 
Ketchum Machine, in like maimer. 
The grass must yield not less than one ami a half tons to the acre. 
The said work to be done with machines manufactured by the sub¬ 
scriber. at Buffalo, N. Y. 
Farmers competing for the above premimns shall forward an affida¬ 
vit or affidavits, setting forth the facts, viz: tho kind of laud, crop and 
amount thereof per acre, the quality of work, length ef stubble, time 
occupied, giving the hours, and the expense incurred for labor or re¬ 
pairs, stating each item and such other circumstances as may be 
proper, together with the number of the machine and the year pur¬ 
chased, to T. C. Pktkrs, of Darien, Gen. Co. N. Y, before the 1st of 
September next, who shall have the privilege of making or having 
a personal examination made, or may require additional proof before 
making his award. 
I will furnish blanks for affidavits to any person, and reserve tbs 
privilege of publishing any of file statements and the awards in my 
next circular Two premiums shall not be awarded to the same person. 
The result of accurate trials of this kind, will enable the public to 
Judge with more certainty of the value of Reaping and Mowing Ma¬ 
chines compared with the scythe and cradle, than can be done at trials 
as nsnally conducted, for the reason that so small a quantity of oither 
grass or grain is cut, that it is difficult for Committees to judge with 
scrupulous accuracy of tbe features and capacityof (be different ma¬
