But Although the crop only averaged 10 'bushels to the acre it paid much better than 40 bushels of oats would •• : havc done, and they fully expect nekt ■ season, to get au average crop, as the Jand is now in much better condition. Some farmers in Otago got from 40 to -- 43 bushels to the acre last year, and ‘ ■ at' ss; 6d‘ per bushel it is easy .to see '.that it .was a good paying crop. Messrs Singer consider that in goqd ground, well worked, and in a fair season, 40 bushels would be nothing to speak about.—“ Bruce Hearakl.” Miserableuess.—-The most wondeirful and marvellous success, in cases where persons are sick or pining, away from miserableuess that no one knows yvhafi.ads them (profitable patients for —doctors), is obtained by the use of Hop •Bitier's/ They begin to cure from the first dose, and keep it up until perfect health-ami strength is restored.
