Beautifying Farms.
Great progress has been made within the
last twenty-five years among the farmers
of the country, not only in making their
farms more productive, but in making them
more attractive. This, in a large measure,
is the result of prosperous farming. Those
who had debt to pay, did not feel able to
expend much in ornamenting their places;
bat since they have freed themselves from
this burden,,they have been more disposed
to attend to the appearance of things.
There has been, also, an advance in
taste. There are not so many now, as for
merly, who decry all attention to the orna
mental as a waste of timeand money. This
race of niggardly and boorish men is fast
dying out. Increasing intelligence, the
circulation of agricultural reading, the
formation of agricultural societies, the in
fusion of a larger element of educated and
cultivated men into the profession, have
had a powerful influence in securing more
attention to the esthetics of farming, in
stead of having everything expended for
mere pecuniary returns. And this is a
great advance. It ennobles the pursuit of
the farmer. Man is a creature of taste, and
not a mere grub ; and he who neglects to
cultivate and to gratify this element in his
nature, degrades himself. Any one may
form a pretty correct estimate of the in
tellectual, if not the moral state of his
neighbors, by simply looking over their
farms. The one who allows his buildings
and lands to lie in a slovenly state, when
he has the means of improving them, may
be a money-loving, but he will also be a
slovenly man with no elevating instincts.
It is a great mistake to suppose that
money spent in reasonably improving the
appearance of a place is thrown away. It
may be doubted whether there is any more
direct method of increasing its pecuniary
value, Certainly its market value will de
pend very much upon its outward appear
ance. Tasteful and well-painted buildings,
well-arranged yards and g rdens with neat
fences, shade trees properly disposed, good
farm fences and cleanly kept fields, will
set off a farm to great advantage and make
an amazing difference when it comes to be
sold. And even if it be not sold, these
things will add amazingly to the enjoyment
of it by its possessor, if he be not blind to
everything but the dollar.
Every man, too, owes it to the commu
nity in which he is living to contribute to
general reputation and to tho public en
joyment, by making all his surroundings as
attractive as possible. There is such a
thing as paying too much attention to the
outside arid to show; but there is reason
in all things, and a measure of time and
attentin and expense should be devoted by
every one to making his farm and his
hnne more and more attractive every year
he lives.—.N. Y. Observer.
Barn Cisterns
One of the most important appendages
to the barn or stable is a well built capa
cious cistern. Having a full supply of
pure water in the barn-yard is not only a
great convenience, saving much time in
taking horses and cattle to the pond or
brook to drink, but the water from a
well kept-cistern is much more healthy to
stock than the water from many of the
stock ponds, which during the summer
months when water is most needed, are
but little more than mud-holes.
The water that falls upon an ordinary sized
barn in the course of a year is sufficient
for ail the stock that will probably find
shelter in and around the barn ; in the
winter time, when the ponds are frozen,
having water in the barn-yard is a great
convenience, not only for watering stock,
but for wetting the cut straw and hay that
should be fed with meal to the farm horses
and cattle.
Many farmers who have never experin
ced the advantages of barn cisterns would
avail themselves of them if they knew with
how little cost and trouble they can be
built. In ordinary clay soils a cistern may
be built without brick—except for the arch
—by merely making the excavation of the
size and depth required and laying the
mortar immediately on the clay sides if
well done with good hydraulic cement and
clean, coarse sand, it will be ac permanent
BB if plastered upon a brick wall. Brick
will be required for the arch. To turn
this, about eighteen inches below the sur
face of the ground a shoulder should be
made the width of the brick on which the
arch is to rest. One thousand brick will
be sufficient for a cistern of the capacity
of one hundred barrels, constructed on
this plan, and the whole may be built at
a cost of $25. On many farms brick may
be already on hand, and some formers, per
haps, would prefer to wall the entire cis
tern from the bottom. To do this, two
thirds or perhaps three-fourths more brick
would be required.
The most proper form, and the one
which gives the greatest strength to a cis
tern is that of an ordinary jug sayten
or twelve feet deep and six or eight feet
in diameter at the bottom, increasing in
middle to nine or ten feet, and from the
middle upward the size should be contract
ed to the base of the arch to six feet or
less. Such a cistern will hold from 100 to
150 barrels, and would afford asupply of wa
ter for twenty head of animals continually.
It is important to secure as freshly
burnt hydraulic cement as possible. The
coarsest sand makes the strongest mortar.
This should be clean, that is, free from
any clayey or manly substance. Every good
mason knows the proportion in which
these should be mixed.—Rural World.
Keep Good Stock
At the late Dairymen's Convention at
Little Falls, N. Y, among the subjectsdis
cussed was that of keeping good cows,
that are a source of revenue to the farmers
instead of poor ones that are a bill of ex
pense, costing more than they come to.
In order to illustrate the difference, the ex
perience of Mr. A. Reed—given in an essay
read before the Farmers' Club of Little
Falls in 1859—was cited. Mr. Reed gives
the statistics of the yield and profit of five
of the best cows in his dairy, and also of
the five poorest, in the year 1857. These
were obtained by measuring and recording
the amount of each cow's milk on the first
day of each month, and are approximately
correct.
By 554 gal& milk each, at 11%c. per Et 3l .•—•=y- 00

Coot of keeping, &r las 00
By Cr. to 203 gals. milk each, at 113.4 e. per gal 27 85
Balance again. each cow 7 05
_ _
From this showing Mr. Reed lost, by
keeping one lot, $35.25, while he gained
a profit from the other lot of $143.75,
making a difference of 8179 between the
two lots of fire cows each. At present
prices, the difference would be much great
er.
There are many farmer:, who are paying
dear for the privilege of keeping stock,
which they had much better fatten and
send to the butcher. The difference is of
ten greater when cows are kept for making
butter than when the milk is sold. In
the former case, quality as well as quantity
is to be takeu into account.

The AItION PIANO-FORTE hae greater power

It will Stand in Tune Longer,
and in its mechanical construction it is wore per

The arrangement of the Agraffe, the manner of

The use of a bar (which is a part of the Iron
Frame on a line with the heavy steel stringing,)
give,
GREAT STRENGTH
where most needed, and in this respect all other
pianoes fail.
The -construction of the WREST PLANK, into
which the taming Pins are inserted. is such that it
is impossible for the pins to come loosened, or the
Wrest Plank itself to split, as is too often tho case
in other Piano-Fortes.
The Extraordinary Evenness
