gfgartnuiit. In Behalf of Farmers' Eoys. Farmer's, did you ever think what a lone some business farming cau be.aud often is, made for your boys, just by your unsociability ? Do you talk with your sons as you go to and from •ad while at work? Or do you work in dreary, uncheered silence, unless a neighbor chances to come aioug or help you a day, and tueu suddenly rtcover the faculty of ech aud flow of spirits ? Do you kuow your boy's subject of thought ? His pet plans aid would he confide to your or advise wit I, y< u about any new plan or idea ? Do you complain that your son " takes no iuterest" in your work and at the same time do you take no interest in his plans for pieasuro and profit '{ Do you help hinn make his bow and arrow, or his trucks or bis sled ? Or does he have to coustruet these out of your sight and enjoy them by stealth, for fear of receiving a reprimaud from you for this waste of time ? Do you coinmeud bi3 good endeavors, or do ysn reprimaud him ou every slight occasion, without any mani festation of your appreciation of his diligence at other times ? There is nothing so terribly discouraging as this perpetual fault finding without auy commendation, and yet, who can not call to mind many fathers who so rarely commend their sons, that it is thought to be said iroui cally wbeu by chauce a word of satisfaction witb-their conduct is uttered. Farmers boy's feel this more from the fact that they are al most constantly with their fathers. They cau not, like village boys, meet companions at night after their work is done, and have a good time, nor can they every few days see 6ome show, firemen's parade, or eutertaiuing curiosity, that may serve them for subject of thought when at work iu silence. The farm is their world, and if the farmer does not try hard to make himself the companion of his boys, to not only seem, but to be interested in whatever interests his 6ons, to make the. hours of work a plesent sociable time in stead of a silent, dreary drag and if he does Dot by consulting with them, and ask iug for and talking over with them their plans and suggestions, and by proper commeudatiou, encourage them to better ef forts iu the future, why should ne be surprised to learn some morning that his sou had be come tired of farming, and " stepped out" to try the broad untried world outside ? flow rnauj fathers, whose boys leave home j just as soou as tliey cau, might justly blame j only their own reserve for their sous discontent. I Boys arc very much like men, and how can they be contented and happy while working j day after day in silence, only when the paten- j tal mouth is opcoed to repnma id some error ! of omission or commijsiou ? Mo one wonders j that the slaves of the south feel no interest ; in their work ; and many a father treats his j boys, so far as companionship is couserned, j just as if they were slaves. lie does not do , this because he does not love his boy, though : it seems so to the child ; but lie has "put J nway childish things" so far that he does not ; appreciate the teeliog of youth, and then the boy is his cwn, and he does not feel under any social obligation to him. 1 verily believe that ; loys who ' live out' will average to be more i contented, than •armers'boys who live at home i so far as companiouship with and eoinmeuUa tion from the father is concerned. Let any one observe in his own neighbor- ' hood, or still better, observe carefully his own boys, and ho will at once be convinced there is here a great evil, and one to be especially observed in the farmiug community. People who labor hard are apt to become cold and reserved. Farm work is usually very sugges tive of a most pleasant and instructive inter change of words, and in the quiet monotony of hoeiug one hill after another the lather for gets that the son is not as old as himself, with a lifetime of recollections for ins mind to feed npon. Think of this thing, fathers, and observe you son's conduct,and if you fiud that he feels any more confidence that he shall find sympa thy and encouragement aud ussistauce from you, your duty to hitn as a father has been neglected. SENDING POULTRY TO MARKET. Messrs. Briggs A Helfricb, of New-York, sends us the following directions for dressing, packing, ana forwarding poultry to market : First 6ee that all poultry is well fattened, as the difference in price in our market between fat and poor poultr? is very great, ilemem ber that you not only get pay for every pound your poultry gains in fattening, but by im proving the quality you gain from one-fourth to one-half in price on the whole. In fattening poultry, it is always the best economy to feed all they will eat. Poultry fed on corn is yellower and better than on buckwheat. Keep from food before killing a sufficient length of time so that the crop will be nearly or quiet empty, as full crops are quite det trimental. The best mode of killing is by opening the beck veins, though the head may be cut off. but, if so, the skiu should be drawn over jthe neck bone and tied after dressing. All poultry should be scalded ju3t enough to make it pick easy. The water should be nearly boiling hot ; dip the poultry in and talse it out two or three times, so as to scald evenly, then # pick off all the quills, feathers and pin feathers as quick as possible without breaking the skin. Don't rub them off, as that rubs off the thin outside skin, which in jures the sale. Next, immediately before it cools, dip it into clean hot water ; hold it in but a few secouds, then suddenly dip it into cold water for a few seconds more, then haag or lay it opto cool and dry. The intestiues or crop should not be drawn. Be sore it is all entirely cool through and the surface dry before being packed. Boxes are best to pack in, though barrels will rlo. Obtain bright rye straw, if possible, wheat or oat straw, if very bright aud clean, will do, but is not as good Shake out all the dust,place a layer in the box, then a layer of poultry, pack op, with the leg-i flat ou the straw ; put a little of the straw next the side of the box, then in the same manner alternate layers of straw and poultry. Btow very snug, so it cannot move ; put straw ou the top, press on the lid, and nail strong. If the weather is warm, use pleuty of dry straw. Genncsee Farmer.
