The New England Farinc. thus praises
oats as a substitute for hay : "For the
past two years we have made special efforts
toward raising upon the farm all the fod
der to be used by the stock, and in order
to do this we have experimented in vari
ous ways. Among other experiments we
have tried growing oats for fodder upon
old mowing fields, which were producing
too little hay for profit. The land has
been plowed in the autumn after the hay
crop was secured. Then it is harrowed
fine and smooth during the leisure days
between harvesting and other work, Be
fore winter the soil may be made to look
almost like an old field, provided the plow
ing and harrowing is thoroughly done .
Manure of 80113 kind is applied before the
ground freezes, and if convenient, is culti
vated lightly into the soil. Early in
spring, as soon as the soil is dry enough to
work well, it is cultivated thoroughly and
sowed to oats, at the rate of from four to
five bushels per acre. If the grain is
small four bushels may be enough, but
otherwise five would be better. This will
give straw nearly as fine as ordinary stout
timothy. It is easily cured and, when cut
early and well cured, makes hay that is
better than timothy and red top which are
allowed to stand until dead ripe." That
such bay will be greedily eaten by almost
all kinds of stock we know froin experience,
but it is not so cheap after all, as some
suppose. By the above plan the Pennsyl
vania farmer would lose the use of his
field for, say one year; the interest and
taxes upon this would amount to say eight
dollars per acre, plowing and harrowing to
four dollars, seed three dollars, and harvest
ing about three dollars, without any al
lowance for manure. If no manure is used
it is safe to assume that the crop will cost
about fifteen dollars per ton. By the use
of manure the cost may or may not be
decreased, depending upon the season and
selection made.
I. Let your colt be domesticated and
live with you from his tenderest age, and
and when a horse he will be simple, docile,
faithful.and innured to hardship and fatigue
11. Do not beat your horses, nor speak
to them in a loud tome of voice; do not
get angry with them, but kindly reprove
their faults; they will do better thereafter,
fur they understand the language of man
and its meaning.
111. If you have a long day's journey
before you, spare your horse at the start;
let him frequently walk to recover his
wind. Continue this until he has sweated
and dried three times, and you may ask of
him whatever you4oisise, he will not leave
01111 IV. Observe your horse when he is
drinking at a brook. If in bringing down
his head he remains square, without bend_
ing his limbs, be possesses sterling quali
ties, and all parts of his body are built
symmetrically.
V. Four things he must have broad—
front, chest, loins and limbs; fbur things
long—neck, chest, fore arm and croup;
four things short—pasterns, back, ears
and tail.— Tribune.
How to Burn Coal.
A very common mistake is made and
much fuel wasted in the manner of replen
ishing coal fires in furnaces and grates.
They should he fed with a little coal at a
time, and often ; but servants to save time
and trouble, put on a great deal at once)
the first result being that all the heat is
absorbed by the newly put on coal which
does not put out heat until it becomes red
hot. Hence, for a while the room is cold,
bat when it becomes fairly aglow the heat
is isnufferable. The time to replenish a
fire is as soon as the coals begin to
ashes on the surface ; then put on
enough to show a layer of black
;ng the red. This will soon

Killing and Dressing Poultry.
As much, if not more. depends on the
manner of killing poultry as iu the dress
ing to have it look fit for market. Too
much caution cannot be used is this
branch of the business. One mode of
killing fowls (instead of wringing the necks,
which we deprecate) is to cut their heads
off with a single blow of a sharp axe, hang
them up by the legs to bleed freely, and
pluck their feathers immediately—while
warm. The French mode, which is high
ly commended, we thinefar the best, as it
causes instant death, without pain or dis
figurement, and is simply done by opening
the beak of the fowl, and with a sharp
pointed and narrow-bladed knife, making
an incision at the back of the roof of the
mouth, which will divide the vertebra
and cause immediate death after which
bang the fowl up by the legs till the bleed
ing ceases, and pick it while warm, if you
desire the feathers to be removed. With
a little care the skin of the fowl does not
beoome as torn and ragged as it does in
the old-fashioned way of scalding. An
other thing, the flesh presents a better and
more natural appearance when not scalded.
GAS TAR ON TREES.-hl some of the
books published by horticulturists gas tar
is recommended to apply to the trunks of
trees to prevent mice and rabbits from
girdling them ; but the experience of
=any persons goes to show that this tar
is injurious to fruit trees, and it should
sever be thus used, Common tar is con-
Aidared safe.

The Cheapest, Purest and Best
Family Medicine in the World.
For DYSPEPSIA, CONSTIPATION, Jaundice, Bilious
attacks, SICK HEADACHE, Colic, Depression of Spirits,
SOUR STOMACH, Heart Burn, &c., &c.,
This unrivaled Southern Remedy is warranted not to
contain a single particle of Mercury, or any injurious min
eral substance, but is
PURELY VEGETABLE,
containing those Southern Roots and Herbs, which an all
wise Providence has placed in countries where Liver Dis
ease, most prevail. It will cure all diseases caused by de
rangement of the Liver and Bowels.
The SYMPTOMS of Liver Complaint are a bitter or bad
taste in the mouth; Pain in the back, sides or joints, oft
en mistaken for Rheumatism; Sour Stomach; Loss of Ap
petite; Bowels alternately costive and lax; Headache;
LO6B of memory, with a painful sensation of having failed
to do something which ought to have been done; Debility,
Low Spirits, a thick yellow appearance of the Skin and
Eyes, a dry cough often mistaken for Consumption.
Sometimes many of these symptoms attend the disease,
at others very few; but the - LIVER, the largest organ iu
the body, is generally the seat of the disease, and if not
regulated in time, great suffering, wretchedness and death
will ensue.
I can recommend as an efficacious remedy for disease of
the Liver, Heartburn and Dyspepsia, Simmons' Liver
Regulator. LEWIS G. Wusntat, 1625 Master Street, As
sistant Poet Master, Philadelphia.
"We have tested its virtues, personally, and know that
for Dyspepsia. Biliousness, and Throbbing Headache, it is
the beet medicine the world ever saw. We have tried 40
other remedies before Simmons' Liver Regulator, bntnone
of them gave us more than temporary relief ; but the Reg
ulator not only relieved, but cured cs."—ED. TELEGRAPH

BAD BREATH !
Nothing Is so unpleasant, nothing so common as bad
breath, and in nearly every case it comes from the stom
ach, and can be so easily corrected if you will take Sim
mons' Liver Regulator. Do not neglect so sure a remedy
for this repulsive disorder. It will also improve your ap
petite, coruplezion and general health.
SICK HEADACHE!
This distressing affliction occurs most frequently. The
disturbance of the stomach, arising from the imperfectly
digested contents, causes a severe pain in the head,accom
panted with disagreeable naus a, and this constitutes what
is popularly known as Sick Headache. For prompt relief
