farmer' Stpavtrnful. ft Raising; nattier than !tn tnff Costs Two nf the best milk dinner of Con nit'tli'tit nnlil nt tlio incutlng of the Uonrtl of Agriculture that they bought no cows, thnt they coulil not buy po good at they coulil rnNo. We were not a little gratified ut hearing this pro nounced iiiimmlltk-illy, hocixuso tlio contrary practice co commonly pro- villi. Milk farmers go ttbotit to pick yp freih cowb In autumn ho nt to kvep their winter supply of milk good, and Instead of keeping up their herd from their own caIvch, cither market them "bobs," or as they oay In Connecticut valley, "deacon" them, that h, kill and Bkln them when first dropped. These two farmers, both men nf good JihIk- ment, experience, and menus, cannot afford to buy cows. Tho question is pertinent, can any good farmer afford to ? Wo think not. Tho price at which oa good cows as n man may rnUo should bo sold, ought to bo so high that one who can rnlso them cannot afford ouy. it costs as much to rnlso n poor cow as a good one, and with hay at $20 per ton that is a good deal. If however, tho cow gives nn averagoof one quart of milk more at a milking forSMi days sho will soon make good her extra eoit At S cents a quart tho amount will bo $12 SO rt year. How may good cows be raised with coniparntlvo certainly? Wo answer first, by never using n common, orgrado null under any circumstances, if v ithl 10 miles of a well bred one of any breed Hy using a well bred bull ono is sure o something delltilto and good; otherwise thuro Is no certainty at all. Ayrshire bull are almost sure to impart to their heifer calves a tendency to become deep milkers, Jersey bulls bring butter mak ers j .Short horns, lino large cows, which, If allowed to come in young, well fed, and milk secretion especially excited, often mako very deep milkers j Devon bulls, if from good mllklnu stock as is true also with tho. Hhort-horno, will bo tho sires orgood milch stock. Opinions have varied in regard to what kind of cows will give tho most milk in proportion to the food consum ed. (Irndcd Short-horns have had their ads-ocotes, and grado Ayrshlrcs theirs, l ew of those whosell milk ns tho most Important article of farm pro- duco have hitherto advocated keeping, still less kept, full-bloods ah milk pro- ducJrs. Mr. J. M. Wells, ono of tho mrmers alluded to, Is now (January) milking 19 head, chiefly full-blood Ayrshlrcs, and most of them of his own raising. His product of milk Is 200 quarts pcrday. Mr. II. S. Collins milks Ayrshires, JersoyH, and grades, and is changing his herd as fast as he can ralso Ayrshiro cows to tako the plrtcti of bo as good ml'8?, ,,cr0 Is but one reason wo know of: that "ft. they have not been bred for milk alone for mauy years, and havo been bred for Deefnloue, whilo both the amount and quality of tho milk have been dlsregar- ueu. Heifers Cl lug In Jim. A Wiuteh III tho JVuclicttl IXirmer In speaking of tho value of heifers that Urop their ilrst calves in June, says : "A heifer having or first calf In tho month of June, or when pasture Is best will mako a far better milker than ono that calves in tho fall or winter. Such has been my oxperienco. and- yet in all tho articles which I havo read on the breeding of dairy stock, I havo never seen It stated us the tine jua non of a fiVst rate cow. Hut so well am I con vinced oflts hniisirtiince. that I would give twico as much for a heifer of tho same stock mid ago to calvo in June, ns for ono that would calvo in winter. Tho grass being then In tho best condition to producoa full How of milk, all tho parts tnat tend to tho secretlou c4 milk are developed to their utmost capacity. Tho udder, tho teats, tUo milk veins, bo- como enlarged crw)eji-and tho best cows I over ralied wo had to commence mllkingsovernl weeks before they calv ed, Ibr-feor of garget, us they would ap pear to bo In iain from the fulness of their uduers." Iiuix-nii-menls In Uialii, Kxi'JiiiiMKXTH have deuwastraled, and analogy lias shown, that tho fluent and beat samples, of seed, continued for years, will Improve the quality and quantity of tho product. Abetter wheat Is thus raised , oven a variety may bo established. On tills principle, (In farm stock,) wo havo tho different breeds of sheep, swine, poultry, etc. Experi ments havo not been made on tho hu man species; but tho same, no doubt, holds good there. Wo plan and sow "as it comes." Wo tnkotlio seed of tho same grain that we uioln tho aggregate, and sow It, Is this tho ease almost universally ? Coin Is nn exception to sowo extent but why do wo except corn ? Hecausolt Is un derstood to bo good. Analogically, then, It Is good to do tho same with wheat, oatu, barley, etc. Hut this is less easily Uono ; wo thereforo neglect it. How long will It toko a farmer to go uirougli lils wheat, and secure tlio finest and ripest heads sufficient to 60W un ocrc.orn quitcr orcvena pint of seed? This pint sowed will bo sufficient to form ii test crop, sfl'lie best heads taken from this nguln, and sowed, will vleld another test crop, from which s hould bo taken as before ; nm6o on for u num ber of years, wiy half n dozen, moro still better. Hut three or four years will work a decided change Hut tho JraU slwutd bo continued from selected time. In this way grain can bo Jmprov- cd and crops enlarged. Thero will be largo grains, earlier maturity,' and bet ter growth. Iiural World Live Stock of all kinds should havo tho owner's dally supervision. If others do tho work, his eyes should soo Uiat It is well done. Few hired men can bo trusted to do things constantly, accordingly to directions. In tho very cold weather thero Is a constant tempt ntlon to consult his own enso rather than the comfort of tho anlmnls entrus ted to his care. Feed and wnter regu larly, and shelter nil cattlo In barns or Blieds." Pino boards nro choaper than hay or grain. Keep salt within reach of horses, cattlo and Bhecp. A largo I ump of rock salt Is best for this purpose. If they can lick when they please, thoy will not tako It in oxcess. Attend to ventilation In barns and stables, and glvo tho anlmnls tho benefit of tho sun for a whilo on clenr days. Keep nil mil innls In a thriving condition.

A CKiiTAlN man was setting out on a ourney, when, seeing his Dog standing nt tho door, he cried out to him, "what nroyon gaping nbout? (let ready to como with me."

A Fox ono day invited nStork to din ner, and being disposed to divert him- elf at tho expense of his guest, provld ed nothing for tho entertainment but souio thin soun In a shallow dish. T ills the Fox lapped up very readily, whilo the Stork, unablo to gain n mouthful with her long narrow bill, wasas hungry at the end of dinner as when sho began. Tho Fox meanwhllo professed his ro gret at seeing her eat so sparingly, and feared that the dish was not seasoned to her mind. Tho Stork said little, but begged that tho Fox would do her tho honor of returning her visit ; nnuaccor dlngly ho agreed to dlno with her on tho following day. Ho arrived truo to his appointment, and tho dinner was ordered forthwith; but when It was served up, ho found to his dismay that It was contained in a narrow-neck' oil vessel, down which the Stork readily thrust her long neck and bill, while he was obliged to content himself with licking the neck of the tar. Un able to satisfy his hunger, he retired with ns good a groco iislioc'oiilu.observ- Inj that ho could hardly find fault with his entertainer, who had paid him back n his own coin. The Man blue tt by n Dog, A Man who had been bitten by a Dog, was going about asking who could cure him. Ono that met him said, "Sir, If ou would bo cured, toko a bit of bread dip It In tho blood of tho wound, nnd give It to tho dog that bit you." Tho Man smiled nnd said,. "If 1 wcro to fol low your advice, I should be bitten by nil the dogs In tho city." Ho who proclaims himself ready to buy up his enemle- will never want a supply of them. Tlit llarl ami Ihr Vlnr.

A Hoy was bathing In n river, and, getting out of his depth, was on tho point of slnklng,whcn ho saw a wayfarer coining by. to whom ho called out for help with all his might and main. Tho Man began to read tho Hoy a lecturo for his fool-hardlncss ; but tho urchin cried out, "O, savo mo now sir! and read mo tho lecturo afterwards." 'J he Ulitphtril Boy and the Wolf.

Hut his neighbors, sup posing him to bo nt his old sport, paid no luea to Ills erics, and tho Wolf de voured tho Sheep. So tho Hoy learned, when It was too late, that liars aro not belloved even when they teUtliatruth. The Aslrftnomer, N Astronomer used to walk out ovo ry night to gazo upon tho stars.
