You perceive th icddem ' B C T of your pullets, which , : ' alLU ' e , eggs ear } 'f they are kept comfo rAll)e t0 s ul themselves undo- ohl shed, or upon the apple tree, yo- r hope of eggs will he nipped m the lud if y° u have been so rash as to cher ish it. Many fanners are resigned to a long tqrefess Winter because they will not take trouble to provide for the biddies. Fowls want ft warm southern aspect, sheltered front the wind and snows, and must have it if you want eggs. A poultry-house ought to he a part of every farmer's establishment ; hut it you cannot have a separate building, furnish off part of the barn cellar, and put iu a win dow at the south side, where the sun can look in upon them for a few hours in the day.— Furnish this room with pure water, gravel, old mortar, ovster, or clap.i shells, or hones, all broken up finely. Put a bed of loam or muck under the roosts, and see that it is mixed with the droppings once a week. Fowls suffer more from the neglect of their laces, than from any other cause. It is entirely practica ble to have fresh eggs all through the W inter, if yon will give your pullets warmth, cleanli ness, and the material to work with. Meat is essential. FATTENING POP.K. — .Many keep up their, swine until New-Year's. thinking they can get a better price for their pork. It costs a great ! more to make pork then than in warm wcath-j er, unci we doubt very much if it can be done to pay. But if done at all, it should be dou< in the best manner. The sty, for Winter feed ing, should be a covered building, to keep the ' animals dry and warm. The nests shouid have an abundance of clean straw, and the food j should be cooked and fed to them when warm, i Wood is much cheaper than corn meal, and ; the animal heat kept up by a tight sty and warm food, is so much saved in the meal bin. i EXAMINE THE ROOTS. —The carrots, beets,: turnips, Set'., stored last month, should be look ed after now. Sometimes they heat, if in too large piles, and decay commences. They should be kept at low temperature, and at the same time be guarded against frost. Potatoes at nil affected should be assorted, and the decay ing r ones removed. A little attention at this season will often save ,a large store of roots froin decay. PRUNING may be attended to In the mild days of December. Drape vines, especially,! should not be overlooked. We have found it ; it much better to put the vines in order in the j Fall than in the Spring. The wood has time j to sear in the Winter winds, and the sap ves sels are entirely closed. "WASHING AND SCRUBBING naturally fo'.'ow the pruning. Many farmers are so busy that the orchard and fruit-yard arc neglected in the Summer. Remove all dead bark and mosses with a scraper and apply a coat of soap and water. This will kill scale bugs and other in sects, and promote the health ami beauty o! the tree. A smooth skin is as comely in a fruit tree as in a cow. THE APPI.E BORER will giv< -ign of ids work about the collar of the tree. Remove t he enrtli two or three inches with a hoe, and look for the holes Thrust in a wire and spit the occupant, or he will spit your apples next year Apple and quince trees should be examined once a year for this destructive insects. Spring Wheat and Fall Ploughing. W illiam O. Iloiighlaiiing, of Grand Rapids, writes that he has two lots of spring wheat grown under different systems of cultivation. The first was a very line lot, almost ready for the sickle on the fourth of August, and which was so rank and luxuriant that the yield seem ed equal to that of the best field of winter grain. The field was ploughed deeply last fall, and only cultivated the last spring previ ous to sowing the seed. The seed was sown on the 20th of April, aud cultivated in with a light cultivator. The second lot was ploughed during the spring, immediately before sowing the seed, the soil being equally as good as that of the first. Both were old sod. Vet the yield on the sec ond lot, either of grain or straw, does not seem to be half as rood as that sown on the land ploughed last fall. It is the opinion of Mr. lloughtailiug that spring wheat, grown upon fall-ploughed land, as he has tried, yields a better and surer crop than winter wheat sown in October. We have no doubt at all of the correctness of the practice of fall ploughing for spring crops, and especially for spring wheat and barley. The exposure to atmospheric in fluences during the winter mellows and enrich er the seed bed to such a degree that whenev er the grain is sown it has elements at hand for the assimilation which it needs. The soil newly turned up has to be prepar ed or mellowed, or oxidized, as the chemist would term it, before it becomes fit to yield nourishment ; and while this process is going on, much precious time is lost, and the growth of the plant is abbreviated in proportion ; its time for tilling cut short, and the yield cannot be as large as when it lias the whole length of the season which nature sceins to have set apart as that to which the plant shall make sterns and leaves, previous to the formation of the seed vessels. — Michigan Farmer. SHELTER FOR STOCK. —Many farm ITS still neglect their animals in winter, feeding them from the stock yard in the open air. Thi praetice is not only barbarous, but is very ex pensive. It takes a third more of hay to car ry a cow through the winter by this method, and with the best of hay, she will not come out in good condition. W arm stables are a substitute for fodder, and an animal sheltered in them, is much more easily kept in high flesh. Then, by stabling animals, we can save all the manure, which is quite too large an item for farmers in this age to throw away. Many who have large farms, ami not wish to build a barn large enough to hold all the liny and grain, build several small barns in dif ferent meadows. There save the carting, both hay and o! manures. In no case should hay be foddered out to cattle without some kind of shelter. A hovel opening to the south can bo made very cheap ly, and with light walls and thatched roof, it will keep cattle quite comfortable. They will save the cost of building in a single winter.— .Now is the time to put them op.

Hence a reliable family phy-ic is of the lb -t im nortanceto the public health, and this Pill has been per fected with consummate skill to meet that demand. An extensive ti ia] of its virtues by Physicians, Professors, and Patients, has shown results surpassing anything hitherto known of any medicine. Cures have been ef t'v ted beyond belief, were they not substantiated by per sons of such exalt, d positions and character as to forbid the suspicion of untruth. Among the eminent gentlemen who have testified in favor of these Pills, we may mention : Moot. A. A. HAVES, Analytical Chemist of Boston, and State Assaycr of Massachusetts, whose high Profes sional character is endorsed by the— Hon. EH WARD EVERETT, Senator of the United States. ROBERT C. WiXTIIROP, Ex-Speaker of the House of Representatives. ABBOTT I. YWREXCE. Minister I'len. to England. fJOiIN ii. FI'fZPATBK'K, Catholic Bishop of Boston: also I>r. J. R.

KKI.AN'it A Co., Proprietors of the Metropolitan Hotel, ami others. 1 i<f space permit, we cnull give many hundred certi ficates from all parts where tiie Pills have been used, but evidence even more convincing than the experience of eminent public men, is found in their effects upon trial. These Pills, the result of long investigation and .study are offered to the public as the best and most complete which the present state of medical science can afford.— They are compounded not of the drugs themselves, but of the medicinal virtues only of Vegetable remedies extract ed by Chemical process in a state of purity, and combin ed together in such a manner as to insure the best results. This system of composition for medicines has been found in Cherry Pectoral and Pills both, to produce a more ef ficient remedy than had hitherto been obtained by any process. The reason is perfectly obvious. While by the old mode of composition. o\ cry medicine is burdened with more or less of acrimonious and injurious qualities, by this each individual virtue only that is desired for the cu rative effect i< present. Ail the inert and obnoxious qualities of each substaucc employed are left behind, the curative virtues only being retained. Hence it is sell evident the elfects should prove as they iiavc proved, more purely remedial, and the fill- a more powerful an tidote to disease than any other medicine known to the world. As it is frequently expedient that many medicines should be taken under the counsel of an attending Physi cian, and as lie could not properly judge of a remedy without knowing its composition, 1 have suppled the ac curate Formula' by which both my Pectoral and Pills are made, to the whole body of Practitioners in the United States aim British American Provinces. If however there should be any one who has not received them, they will be forwarded by mail to his request. Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, how few would be taken ii their composition was known ! Their life consists in their mystery. 1 have no mysteries. The composition of my preparations is laid open to all men, and all who are competent to judge on the subject freely acknowledge their convictions of their intrinsic merits. Tiie Cherry Pectoral was pronounced by scienti fic men to lie a wonderful medicine before its elfects were known. Many eminent Physicians have declared the same thing of my Pills, and even more confidently, and are willing to certify that their anticipations were more than realized by their effects upon trial. They operate hy their powerful influence on the inter nal viscera to purity the blood and stimulate it into heal thy action—remove the obstructions ol the stomach, bow els, liver, and other ortrans of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements as are the first origin of disease.
