Many farmers in consequence of broken j
health, occasioned by a too close application
to hard labor, find themselves, in the merid
ian of life, unable to carry on their farm, and
although surrounded by the conveniences,
and many of the luxuries of existence, are
compelled to sell out to younger men, aban
don the hallowed associations of the old
homestead, and remove to some country vil
lage to live an uneasy life, but one unattended
by the large amount of hard work necessary
upon a farm. The instances of farmers thus
situated are numerous. One not long ago as
ked our advice about selling his farm and go
ing into some other employment, stating that
his health was poor, and he could no longer
carry on his farm. The reply we made, was
in substance as follows:
Your farm is nearly all cleared, under a
good state of cultivation, and well fenced.
You have good buildings, and what is a con
sideration of great importance, one upon
which no money value can he placed: it is the
homestead of your father, perhaps your fa- \
ther's father, and the associations of two or
three generations cluster around the old place.
At your age of life no tnau should change his
situation if it can possibly be avoided. Turn
your farm into a sheep range, not at once
perhaps, but do it gradually in two or three
years. Keep a horse and cow, plant enough
to keep you busy, or in other words to raise
enough for your own use; apply your dressing
to grass lands, and keep what sheep your
farm will stock. They will require but little
attention. True, it is quite a job to look af
ter a dock of sheep, but see if you cannot, by
keeping sheep exclusively, carry on your
farm yourself with but little hard labor com
paratively, pay all your hired help, and while
living upon your own farm, also make more
money every year, with less labor than you
formerly did by a course of mixed husbandry.
Try it and see.—Maine Farmer.

The excellence of buckwheat flour de
pends chiefly on the management of the grain
between the time of ripening and grinding.
The common way of treating buckwheat ef
fectually prevents making good flour, it being
allowed to remain in the swath for several
weeks, when it should never be suffered to
lie longer than a day or two and it is deci
dedly better for the grain to rake it and set it
on end, as last as it is cradled. Much less
grain willbe wasted by shelling out; the straw
will cure and dry out sooner, and make bet
ter fodder; the crop will be ready for thresh
ing or housing in less time; and the grain will
yield a much better quality of flour. It is
especially injurious to the grain to be exposed
to storms before it is set up, for dirt is spat
tered all over the grain, by the falling of large
rain-drops. This makes the flour dark-color
ed and gritty. Wetting and drying the grain
seqeral times, destroysthe '"life "ofthe flour.
It will never be gs white, nor make so good
cakes, but will be sticky, and the cakes clam
my, like the flour of sprouted wheat.— Amr.

WHEN TO SELECT SEED POTATOES.
Thft hfißt timn to aelflct seed potatoes is when
they are dug. As soon as they are brought
to the surface, and lie spr*J
the best can be celcclcd ****
than a'nfbfa I #Bfgo^'Sfipc,"having the
ifefirfced characteristics of the variety, and good
average size, should be selected for seed, in
preference to those of any other qualities.
Thex should then be placed in boxes or bar
rels, and kept where they will not be injured
by freezing or by warmth. If seed potatoes
are saved in this manner for a few years in
succession, we have no doubt a decided im
provement will be observed in the yield per
acre, as well as in the quality of the crops.
And we think this practice will also be found
an effectual security against smali ones, and a
good defence again6t the rot. When potatoes
first come from the ground, the skins have a
clearness, which they soon lose. — Am. Ag. for
Sept. _
INSECTS IPOS INSECTS.
Several have ent us specimens, and others
have sent us descriptions of caterpillars of
various kinds, which were more or less cov
ered by small white oval bodies, that some of
the writers recognized as what they really are
—the cocoons of a parasitic insect. It is one
of the wise provisions for preventing the un
due increase of insects, that most of them
have insect enemies. Among the most de
structive of these are the Ichneumon flies, a
term applied to a large class of four-winged
insects, which deposit their eggs in the larvae
or pupae of other insects. The maggots
hatched from these eggs feed upon the living
animal in which they are enclosed, and by the
time it dies they have attained a sufficient
size to undergo their transformation. The
number of parasites that are nourished by
one caterpillar is sometimes astonishing.
A few days ago we took from our tomato
vines the larva of a Sphinx, which was almost
completely covered with the cocoons of an
Ichneumon. From counting a portion of
* U ' A the whole ltambut at be
remarkable that this number of maggots could
have lived within the caterpillar, attain their
full growth and spin their cocoons, without
killing it. Though still alive, the caterpillar
was evidently much weakened by rearing such
a large unnatural family, and will probably
in ft short time die from exhaustion.—Am.
Agriculturist.
IN.AMD IN BWEEDINU.
There is probably no greater folly that the
common stock raiser can be guilty of, than
breeding from animals close akin. The
results are in almost all cases unfortunate, and
tend to the degradation of his stock. This is
true of horses and neat cattle especially, of
sheep essentially, of swine in a less degree,
but still noticcbly :and in the case of fowls and
pigeons, the evil re suits are more quickly seen
than in any other olaasea, perhaps. In and in
breeding, where mostoarefuliy conducted, has
produced very favourable results; but this was
under the direction of men who gave their
lives, with severe, assidious study of animals
and.their ponts, their differences of constitu
tion and temperament, of form, size, Ac.; and
who were also possessed of an intuition as to
which animals would cross well. In those
herds, too, where in-and-in breeding has been
successfully practised, it must be remembered
that the relative numbers of males and fe
males approached much nearer a natural
standard than is ever profitable in economic
stock raising. If any one wishes to see how
quickly he can run down a superior flock or
herd, let him undertake to imitate Bakewell
on a small scale.—Am. Agriculturist.

JjIOUTZ'S CELEBRATED
Horse and Cattle Powders.
These Powders have proved, after a trial of sev
eral years, to be superior to any preparation of
the kind in use. The chief superiority of these
powders arises fiom the fact that they are compos
ed of medicines that have Laxative, Tonic and
Purifying properties. The laxative ejects crudi
ties from the stomach and intestines, the tonic gives
strength to the system of the Horse, and the puri
fying medicines contained in them cleanse the
blood, and lay the foundation for a vigorous ;and
healthy circulation. The use of them improves the
wind, strengthens the appetite and gives the horse a
fine, smooth and glossy skin—thus improving the
appearance, vigor and spirit of this noble animal.
These powders are not intended, as most pow
ders are to bloat the animal, so as to give him the
appearance of being fat wken not really so—but
to remove the disease and promote his general
health.
These powders will strengthen the stomach and
, ';„•* cleanse them from offensive matter, aD 1
br ng res*i .. _ Healthy state. They are a surepre
ventkm of Lung
all diseases incident tiWrtie tlorse, as Glanders,
Yellow Water, Distempers, Founder, Heaves, Sla
vering, Coughs, Fevers Loss ol Appetite and Vital
Energy, Ac.—These powders, if used two or
throe times a week, through the winter and spring,
your horses will never get the Lung Fever Coric
or Botts. A ftw doses of these powders will re
move the worst cough, on any horse. Were own
ers of horses to feed a few of these powders every
year, they might save the lives of many valuable
horses.
MILCH COWS.
The properties this powder possesses in increas
ing the quantity of milk in cows, gives it an im
portance and value which should place it in the
hands of every person keeping a cow. In fatten
ing cattle, it gives them an appetite, loosens their
hide, and makes them thrive much faster,
HOGS.
In all diseases of swine, as coughs, ulcers in the
lungs aud liver, Ac., by putting from half a paper
to a paper of these powders in a barrel of swill, the
above diseases can be cured or entirely prevented.
By using these powders the hog cholera can be
prevented.

The American Publishers continue to reprint the

These works will be printed on a greatly im
proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A
merican Periodicals are either advanced in price or
reduced in site—and very generally both, we shall
continue to give faithful copies of all the matter
contained in the original editions. Hence, our pres
ent prices will bo found as cheap, for the amount
Of matter furnished, as those of any of the com
peting periodicals in the country.
Compared with the cost of the original editions,
which at the present premium on gold would be
about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexceeding
ly low. Add to this the fact that we make our an
nual payments to the British Publishers for early
sheets and copyright iu Gold—sl costing us at
this time nearly $2.50 in currency—and we trust
that in the scale we have adopted we shall be enti
rely justified by our subscribers and the reading
public.
The interest of these Periodicals to American
readers is rather increased than diminished by the
articles they contain on ourgreat Civil War,' and
though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may
still, considering their great ability and the differ
ent stand-points Srom which they' arewritten, be
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of every creed and party.
