WEDNESDAY MORNING Nov, 17 '6B,
From the Algtzntle Almo,u - te for 1370
Farm Yard Song
Over the hill the farm boy goes; _
His shadow lengthens along the land,
A giant staff in a giant hand ;
In the poplar tree, above the spring,
The Katydid begins *o sing:
The early dews are
Into the stone-heap darts the mink ;
The swallows skim the river brink;
And home to the wonalatd flies the crows
When over the hill the farm boy goes,
Cheerily calling,
"Co' boss ! en' boss! co'! co' ! co'!"
Father, father, over the bill,
Faintly calling, calling still,
"Co' boss ! co' boss ! co'l co' I"
Into the yard the farmer goes,
With greatful heart at the close of day;
Harness and chains are hung away ; .
In the wagon shed stand yoke and plow;
The straw's in the sttek,the hay in the mow,
The tooling dews are falling•;
The friendly sheep his 'welcanao bleat,
The pigs come grunting to his feet,
The whinnying mare her master knows,
`•When into the yard the farmer goes,
'His cattle calling,
'"to ) boss co'. boss I ce' I co' ! co' !"
While still the cow boy, far away,
oes seelsing those that hare gone •stray,
"Cl,' boss I co' boss ! eo' ! co'!"
Now to her task the milkmaid goes,
The cattle come crowding through the gate,
Lowing, pushing, little and great;
About the trough by the farm-yard ptimp,
The froliolcsotoe Ntarlinfis frisk and jump,
While the pleasant dews are .falling;
The new-milch heifer is quick and shy,
Bat the old cow waits with tranquil eye;
And the white stream into the bright pail
flows,
When to her task the milkmaid goes,
Soothingly calling—
" So, boss ! so, boss ! so! so! so !"
The cheerful milkmaid takes her stool,
And sits and milks in the twilight cool,
Saying " So ! so, boss 1 so, so I"
To supper at last the farmer goes,
The apples are pared, the paper read,
The stories are told, then all to bed,
Without the, crickets' ceaseless song
Make shrill the silence all night long;
The heavy dews are Falling,
The housewife's hand has turned the lock
Drowsily t elts the 1 , it..hen clock;
The household sinks to deep repose,
But still in sleep the farm boy goes,
Singing, calling—
"Co', boss ! co', boss ! co', co'. co'!"
And oft the milkmaid, in her dreams,
Drums on the pail with the flashing streams,
Murmuring. '• So. boss ! so !"
Fattening Hogs—The Process of Fat
tening Increased by Making Them
Greater Eaters.
When hogs are fairly on their way
tit' being . fattened, rpeeiving several
time fl tiitY all the food the , can eat,
the more they can be wade to eat the
faster then niil fatten, and the more
profit the farmer will derive from the
food given them and consumed.
There was once a strife in a certain
neighborhood of good farmers as to
who should annually have the fattest
hog. Each one teok a pig of the same
litter, FO that they all started alike.—
But somehow it turned out that one
certain man always came out ahead.
This constant victory excited wonder
and curiosity. But at last the secret
leaked out. This farmer was in the
habit of giving his pig all it could eat
and then turning into his pen another
hungry pig, which of course would
commence eating vociferously, which,
would arouse into action the sluggish
appetite of the other pig, and he would
turn in, eating with eagerness, and
resolutely competing with the hungry
pig. By this means, the hog that was
being fattenedwas stuffed several times
a day to repletion.
Now, we have found by experience I
that there is another way in which a
hog can be induced to eat much more
than he otherwise would, and conse
quently he made to lay on fat very
fast. Let a hog be fed, for instance,
all he can eat of corn in the ear.—
Then fill his trough half full of clean
water, and strew into it three or four
quarts of shelled corn, and it will be
found that the hog's appetite will come
to him again, and this additional
amount of ft,od will also be consumed.
It is generally the case that those
hogs that do not take on fat very rap
idly are poor eaters, and it is an object
of importance, - worthy of the farmer's
attention, to make them full eaters.
Every fattening hog, which is really
thriving satisfactorily, will always de
note that by his peculiar snuffling and
difficult breathing just after eating all
be will eat. And perhaps it will be
-found that even scrub hogs, about
which so much complaint is made for
their shyness in taking fat, can be
made to give much more satisfaction if
some more effectual means are taken
to make them greater eaters.
WHAT TO Do WITH POTATOES.-A
correspondent of the Western ( Chica
go ) Rural says be "didn't like the
idea e hauling potatoes fifteen miles
to market and selling them for twenty
five ots., a bushel," so he commenced
feeding them to his hogs, and found
that when boiled, mashed and mixed
in the proportion of three bushels of
potatoes and one of Inan, that the
logs. not only ate it Lavishly I.nt fat
ted upon it bettvr than uponcorn alone.
He added,however,a few ears of corn.
This plan of feeding is of long stand
ing in this region, and has been pur
sued with uniform success. with,how
ever, this difference the proportion of
corn is larger. Hogs ate very fond of
boiled potatoes, and broken and mix—
ed with half the quantity of bran doub
le the quantity of corn, as suggested
by the correspondent aforesaid, will
fatten upon it better: perhaps than
any other fimd.

Hints Tor Ho iaekeepers.
Boor Smith, an English .wri-7
ter, in the mum of a lengthy paper
on "The dutics of an - Arebiteet, i 'gives
the following as a few of the points to
be thought of in the planning of a
dwelling :
"The relative position of each room
in connection with all the others; tin
aspect of the windows; the conitnum- -
cations, such as the hall, the torri
, dors and the staircase must be airang
'ed for. Each room must be of tin•
right size, shape..and disposition. Ti
every main living room the ordinary
articles of furnitUre must 1 e prepared
for, and places assigned thezn,and the
same in every bedroom large or small.
The position of the window, door and
fireplace in each room must be settled
so as to avoid draughts, -- discomfort
and smoky chimneys. Light must be
secured for every bole and corner all
over the house; and so much ventila
tion. The service-from the kitchen
• west be so Provided:as to bring 'the
provision into the. diuing-room readi
ly, but to keep smells out. The duty
of every servant all over the house
must be understood, and all the end
less appliances of a large house tho't
of. • There must be a place found for
the range, and the hot-plate, and the
jack and the uresier,' and the closets,
and the shelves of the kitchen. -The
shelves, sinks andplate-racks,. - the
_coppers and washing-boards,the vege
table bins and the water-supply of the
scullery, must be all provided for.—
Care must be taken of the-winter-cel
lar, beer-cellar, and (if present) the
stores, the linen the china and the
plate. Ovens, shelves, books, safes,
plate-closets, linen-closets. house
maid's closets, baths, hot water, cold
water, cupboards,' lifts, and all man
ner of appliances are to be thought
of ; rooms for the family and rooms
for the guests ; the nurseries, the up
per-servants' rooms, the various ser
viees of butler, cook, housekeeper,
footman, dairymaid stillroom maid,
must all be thought of, all planned
for ; all must be brought compactly
together, and each must be kept out
of the other's way. While these mat
ters are being disposed of, there are
also many points in the structure that
need attention in preparing working
plans. Proper foundations Must - be
provided for, and an equal distribu
tion of the weights on the walls. The
flues must be carriedup into proper
chimney stalks the construction of
bresummers,girders,floors, partitions,
roofs, etc., must be devised. The ar
rangement of the roofing, so as to be
easily freed from snow, the mode of
bringing away rain water, the drain
age, the outfall or cesspool for the
drains, the necessary precaution
against damp, had smells or tainted
water, each and all of these come un
der review; not one of them can he '
left to chance any more than the put
ring together of the masonry or the
brickwork, the thickness of walls, the
quality of glass, or the weight of lead.
All this time an entirely distinct set
of considerations is also present to the
architect's mind : his building is to
please the eye as well as to accommo
date the dwellers therein, and,wheth
er there be the richest elaboration, or
the most rigid simplicity, he will not
have fulfilled his duty to his employ
er,, or been loyal to the art, if he has.
not striven to render the effect of his
work, especially the inside of his
house, pleasing, harmonious and ap ,
propriate."
FALL PLANTING OF TRESS. —A cor
respondent asks us at what time in the
fall he should transplant trees. We an
swer, any time after the tree is done
growing for the season—but the soon
er the better The moment it can be
seen from the leaves that the season's
growth is over, the transplancltion of
trees should be attended to. By so do
ing the roots will have time to become
established before severe weather sets
in, and be ready to make an early
healthy start when spring opens.
Some of our leading horticulturists
assert that the riots of trees gl'Oxv all
winter. except when the ground be
comes deeply frozen ; but whether_ this
be so or not, transplanting as early in
the autumn as circumstances will ad
mit of,doUbtless has its advantages.—
Germantown Telegraph.
AFTER DINNER NAPS.—The Herald
of Health says: " Many persons are
in the habit of sleeping for half an
hour or an hour ithnie - diately after
dinner. This is a bad practice. Ten
minutes sleep before
.dinner is worth
more than an IMur after. It rests and
refreshes and prepares the system for
vigorous digestion. If sleep is taken
after dinner• it, should be in a sitting
posture, a ,- .1 the horizontal position is
unfavorable to healthful digestion.—
Let those what need rest and sleep du
ring the day take it before dinner in
stead of after, and they will soon find
that they feel better, and that their
digestion will be imprOved thereby."
HOW TO MAKE SHINGLES LAST.
Silas Brown says that twenty-five
years ago, he dipped shingles in a
large kettle of lime wash to which salt
had been added, and the whole kept.
boiling. A few of the shingles were
dipped in all over at. a time, long
enough to soak them well, and then
thrown aside to dry. In a short time
all the shingles were - thus prepared.
Although what are termed " sap
shingles," they have lasted twenty
five years, " and may do FO for years
to come." Several experiments of a
similar character have been made
since, with very successful results.—

the past few years, they have given special
attention to the production of a

The machine which they now offer is quiet
light-running, simple, fast, noiseless. Its
accessories for
HEMMING, BRAIDING, BINDING,
QUILTING, TUCKING, CORDING,
FELLING, GATHERING,
are simple and easily understood. Ifs deli
cate though enduring and tireless muscles of
iron and steel, do all the work noiselessly,
better, - and few will deny, "Faster than hand
can do it." They urge those wishing to pur
chase a machine, to examine all the other
manufactures before buying, as it will, for

other machines'that can be brought against
