The iluntingdon Journal, tram anti Tptothold. Ox — en — t : Mules There are many things which seem to be advantageous over general practice. which are often strongly urged, and which seem to be backed by the most unanswer able arguments, and spite of all their promising features, never seem to make their way to public confidence. We have, for instance, during a long life of connec tion with our editorial career, noted, seemingly at set times, a sort of excite ment go through the whole agricultural press iu regard to the great value of mules and oxen to the farm. There is nothing too good to be said about them. The mule is a very strong animal, he will live and grow fat on food that any good man nered horse would sicken on. He will live longer, as well as work harder, and as soon, as a general thing his first cost is less than the first cost of .a good horse. Then they are bright and easily taught, and indeed will do many things that are quite incomprehensible to the spirit of a horse. This is something like what these periodicals articles read. And as for the oxen, they are patient, strong, endearing, moderate feeders, and then their flesh is eatable, and a dead ox is often worth more than a live horse. Time and again we have read these ar guments, and time on time we have known of periods when people, convinced by them, purchased and worked with them. But in time both ex or mule got their discharge and the good old-fashioned horse took their places. Jost now we see symptoms of a break ing out of periodical talk about them. We are prepared at once to agree with all that is to be said in their favor, but yet we are sure that all who buy them, for general farm purposes will in time sell them again, and go on as before. The tint is that the horse can do all that others can do as a general rule, and a great deal mere in some others; and where there is general work to be done, one that will do the moat of them toler ably, is better than a great many tools, each well adapted to its particular end• —Germantown Telegraph. The Value of the Roller. The Commissioner of Agriculture, in an article on Agricultural machinery, makes the following just remarks on the use of the roller. He says: "Of all the imple ments for use upon the farm there is no one which tells of greater benefits than the roller. It pulverizes the clods, smooths the surface for the scythe or the reaper, and compacts the earth about the seed and roots of plants; but above all, and of more importance than all, it destroys ver min. That the earth should be made fine, is the object of plowing and harrowing. A roller greatly conduces to this. That small stones and rough places 'shOuld be driven out of the way of the scythe or mower, is a derideratunz which every farmer will appreciate, and when the seed is first sown, and when the frosty winter or thawing of the spring have loosened its growth upon the surface, it may bo im agined how it would be benefitted by giv ing it a bed on the earth again. But its most useful purpose is less satisfactorily explained, for its only proof is only found in the experience of its use. All know that most of the vermin which afflicts the farmers' crop has its resting and often its breeding place in the earth; there, and upon the young and tender plant, where it deposits its eggs. The cut worm de stroys corn at the surface ; the Hessian fly deposits its eggs upon the wheat blade, which often falls to the ground. The earth, in fine, is folly charged with the eggs and the embryo of.vermin of all' sorts, in all stages, and it may readily be imagined what anolinount of destruction would follow the passage of a heavy roller over the surface." How TO INSERT SOREyS IN PLASTER WALLS.-It often becomes desirable to in sert screws in platiter walls without attach ing them to any wood-work ; but when we turn them in the plaster gives way and our effort is vain. And yet a screw may be inserted in plaster so as to hold light pictures, ect., very firmly. The best plan is to enlarge the hole to about twice the diameter of the screws, fill it with plaster of paris, such as is used for fastening the tops of lamps, ect., and bed the screw in the soft plaster. When the plaster has set the screw will be held very strongly. IN rearing and breaking the colt, the law of.kindness should not be forgotten. The first thing in breaking is to let the colt know that you are its friend, and this can not be done too soon. Never allow the colt to get wild, but rather teach it to be glad to see you. When you have se cured the full confidence of the colt, little breaking is needed; you only have to teach the colt what it must do. Patience and kindness will do this easier and better than any other course. ADJUSTING A THREE-HOBS& EVENES. —A correspondent of the Country Gentle man says : Take a lath of the length to ac commodate the swingletree used; put a loop of string over it, and hang from one end say a pcund, and from the other two pounds. Slip the loop till these weights hang even, and put the shackle on the bar according to those measures. The power of the lever is as the square of the length, not as the width. The line horse should have the long end. THE PIP is ocasioned by the forming of a dry, horny scale upon the tongue; the beak becomes yellow at the base ; the plum age becomes ruffled; the bird mopes and pines, and at length it dies, completely worn out by fever and starvation. Give the bird, three times a day, for a week or two, twoor three grains of black pepper in fresh butter, which will effect a cure.— Rural Register.
