The finest and best varieties of the cereah have generally been originated by the selec tion of the largest and best filled ears at har vest time, and propagating from them until large quantities of seed were obtained and disaetnminated. The Potato Oat which has been so long celebrated for its great weight and productiveness was propagated from a single plant of extraordinary size which a gen tleman fcund growing in his field in Cumber land, England. Every farmer should en deavor to obtain a new variety of seed or to refresh or renew an old one by selecting flu best heads of wheat, oats, barley or rye at the time of harvesting, and carefully props gating from them, until, in the course cf time, enough will be obtained to supply him self and all his neighbors with all they may need, if this were done we would not hear so much about the deterioration of cereal crops. The falling off in the acreable yield of the wheat crop is partly occasioned by the use of worn out seed, and partly by superficial til lage. It is vain to expect a goad crop of any kind from deteriorated seed, sown on impov erished soil. When to these evils are added shallow plowing and the want cf draiusng, manuring, and a rotation of crops, the won der is, not that the crops are light, but that tbev are not still lighter. In preparing land for wheat, stagnant water should be got rid of, grass and weeds eradicated, and if the soil is not possessed of the necessary ingredients, they should be supplied by manure. PLANT ORCHARDS. No matter whether your farm is small or large, don't rest content until you have an orchard of fruit trees. "We do not advise farmers indiscriminately," says The Country man "to undertake to raise fruit for market. Every one should judge for himself as to the feasibility of such an enterprise. But we do sty to every farmer, raise fruit, or try to do so, at least for the use of your own family. It will largely pay is pleasure and in health, if you never sell a dollar's worth. In select ing varieties, choose those kinds that usually do well in your locality. Deal, if possible, with reliable fruit dealers, rather than with agents who are strangers to you. And don't set out an orchard nnder the delusion that setting out the trees will be about all the work that will be necessary. In this day of many enemies to fruit and Iruit trees, it may be said that eternal vigilance is the price of fruit. Land devoted to fruit trees need not be worth less to the owner. Some valuable crops can be raised in the orchard almost until the trees become old enough to bear; and by the time they reach bearing age, in this case, there will probably be a market close enough. But, as we said above, if you never sell a dol lar's worth of fruit, your orchard assuredly will if properly attended to, pay you and your family, in health and comfort for all your la bor and expenses." MAKING PIGS PROFITABLE. A correspondent of the Western Hural describes the method of making pigs profi table as follows: I saw in your paper of a late date an in quiry as to the way by which to make pigs profitable. I would say in the fi'-.-t place, keep no more than is sufficient to cat what feed you have. If one pig will eat it, give it to him; it is better than to feed it to two. In the next place have a good, warm, dry place for them to sleep in with plenty of clean straw changed twice a week. I raised nine pigs last season from a Suf folk sow and a Chester boar; fed on milk and corn, mOßtly in the ear, and all the milk tbey would drink. They averaged 217 lb dressed, when eight months old. Keeping hogs poor one year and fat the next has exploded with me years ago. I recollect having two pigs of a neighboring farmer in 1845. I fed mine well during winter, on corn and slops of 'he house. He fed his so as just to kep them alive. After about four months I saw his pigs and said to him : "Our pigs do not look as thongh they were of the same litter." He said they did not but that be would make as much pork in the fall a* mine. I told him I would remember it, for if 1 was a fool it wag time I knew it. I slaughteied mine when tbey were fourteen months old. One weighed 367, the other 467 pounds. He kept his one month longer, and one weighed 2'32, and the other 238 pounds. If I had not much milk, I should prefer corn, rye and oats, ground in about equal parts, scalded and let stand utit-l it ferments. PERSUASION BETTER THAN FORCE. —The American Stock Journal says : "We some times see men having the care of and driving a team of horses or mules, whipping the poor auimals because they do not understand their wishes. Many a time the lead horse or mule is unmercifully beaten for no other reas on than that the driver's order is not under stood. If the driver, in such a case, should speak gently to the leader, pat it a few times on the neck to reassure it of his frienship, take hold of the bridle and lead it a few steps in the direction he wishes to go, and all this without ar.y excitement or anger on his port, the leader will always do his best to please him. In driving a horse to a carriage, how ever gentle and well trained he may be, some thing may happen to alarm or frighten him this is no fault of his —he cannot help it, ail he needs is a word or two of encouragement, gently spoken, to reassure him of his mas ter's care and presence, and that all is right. The driver should recoiled that he gets alarmed or frightened too, sometimes, and would think hard cf oeiog whipped for it.'' CLOVER AND TIMOTHY.— A. Hardley, in a communication to the North Western Farm er, gives what he regards as three important reasons why clover should always be grown with timothy: First, the clover, being tap rooted, penetrates deeply, stands drought, mellows the soil, and the timothy grows much stronger and holds up the clover. Second, if sown for pasturage, the titnotby almost uni versally prevents the clover from swelling cattle. Thirdly, timothy bay is too binding, especially for cattle, and clover too washy, (succu-lent,) hence both together are better than either alone. .To these the Country Gentleman adds, un der the head of the first, that where grass comes in a rotation, it is of the utmost importance on a clay soil that at least a part of this grass be clover. It will serve to mellow and loos en the heavy soil in a remarkable degree, so that when turned over with a plow, it will not only be rich, but loose and friable. Hons WANT SULPHUR. —Whether hogs re quire sulphur as an essential to their health, or whether it is sought by them as a condi ment, may not be known tor eertaiuty. But one thing is sure, they devour it with a greed whenever it is to be found. It is for this pur pose, probably, that they eat large quantities of soft coal, which contains a large amount of sulphur. Perhaps this is the most economi cal method of supplying hogj, w j t j, eu |ph ur during the winter, when they require a good deal of carbon. But in the summer, it is bet ter to feed it to them in substances that con tain the less carbon, on account of their pro ducing leas heat. Mustard is one of the best things for this purpose, and on that account some of it should be sown into every pasture into which hogs are turned. Il hogs are kept up, or are in small yards, it is weil to supply them with wild mustard that grows in fields or highways, or to cultivate some of the better varieties for them. They will eat its leaves. Sowers, seeds and stalks. MEN talk abaut improving dairy products, : and wonder why progress is so slow. We mast go back end correct evils that have been so loDg in practise that they are overlooked or assumed to be right. We must learn how to gal good healthy milk, and how to preserve it in good order. We must learn that cows, with full udders, cannot be raced from the pasture to the stable with impunity, and that dogs are a nuisance upon the dairy farms. When we begin to pay a little more attention to these matters, there will be less complaint about preserving the flavor of cheese in hot weather. pgujMwms*. JOSII BILLINGS. Honesty makes reputation, and honor preserves it. The only way to make mankind happy is to make them better. • If fools would be content to act natural they would not be noticed. I like them kind of boys who are always trying to lift half a ton. Mankind don't want much excuse (or pitching into the unfortunate. Looking glasses won't lie but they toil some awful plain truths now and then. How many people are there in this world whose characters are anonymous. No mau is fit to live in solitude unless be is as pure as the things that surround him. Let the world understand that you can be spit upon, and you are a spit-box for life. A dog is the only dependent that I know of upon whom you can always rely as a true friend. Friendship is like pickled meat; to be sweet the brine wants to be changed once in a while. My idea of a delightful woman is one who asems to love everybody, and in fact only loves her husband. If you are going to help a man, be about it; promised assistance after a while is con sidered a debt. Adam probably was never more tickled than when be discovered Eve, which shows how unnatural solitude is. "THE hog may not be thoroughly posted in arithmetic; but when you come to a square root he is there—the hog is." V.'nv do young ladies whiten their faces?
