' We will give each man the same outfit, and re.
quire him to draw the seatterd stone from a piece
of ground, recently seeded for meadow. The one

leg the team and leaving its deep tracks behind, a
momento of the laborer's folly. Thus he Irrocures
load after load until the stones become so matter
ed that - it takes a long time to get a load, and he
calls the work done. At hay time the mower soon
finds that there are patches of stone in every part
of the field, which this wanderer did not hit; and
broken scythes, provoked workmen, loss of bay
and loss of time are the result.
The titheri with mind intent upon his business,
passes at once to the distant part of the field, cal
culating as he proceeds, how wide a strip of ground
will be required lo furnish a load. He begins to
load at the farther side and. finishes at the bars.—
Thus he:proceeds with his several loads until Ito-has
-cpassed over the entire fieldriccompl i ishing his
work with the least possible laborSsihimself and
team, and withodt the least injury to the meadows.
When the lasi belt is passed; the work is dmie, and
the mower in his time, may enter his scythe bold

If stone are to be drawn for a wall, one would
draw the larger ones and leave them in the line
of the proposed wall then drop the -smaller ones
beside of them. They are then' laid op iiiih — Ttie
greatest ease. The other would leave his stone
so that one-half of the smaller onesr,must be remov
-ed to make room for the larger foundation stone,
and then rolled'ever the other half, at much ex
pense of time - and labor. There would be at !east
one-third difference of laying those two parcels of
stone into a good wall.

./Ife load of hay is to be'loaded, the one cattil his
eyes over the heaps, and arranges in his mind the
order in which they are to be taken, to secure ease
-in pitching and avoid unecessary travel, and the
•consequent loss of time. The other takes his heaps
without plan or order, drives upon onea rod from
the next, and the ppper hill side of a third—passes
the same ground 'Several times, and finally finds: it
necessary to have two:or three heaps brought some.
distance upon the Irak., This consumes considerable
time—makes the boy that rakes after very cross,
and if the man who pitches the hay does not keep
his lips firmly closed some naughty words are apt
escape. Send these men 'into the woods to re
move a decay ins tree of primeval growth. The
one as he approaches the tree, a.lcs himself, in
what place can this tree be brought to the ground
In which of these places will it do the least injury
I to the adjacent trees, and yet be in a situation
where it can be loaded and removed without diffi
culty I These questions are settled at almost intn
tively. The habit of thinking and planning will en
able one to do it with great ease and despatch.—
Nothing now remains but to perform the labor with
all the expedition the muscular strength at corn
mend will permit. - The oths4 cuts his tree without
plan or calculation ; lodges it, or breaks down an
other thrifty and valuable one; is obliged to cut
two or three more to get at his sled where it can
be loaded, even by rolling the log up hilt. After
the load is completed, the thought for the first time
enters his mind that it is to be drawn 14 out of" the
woods, and consequently, it will, be necessary to
tnm around. In attempting, what would have cost
• little or no trouble before loading, his sled strikes%
firm young maple, or beautiful white ash, and all is
bust. lie cuts the first young tree he meets for a le
vee:" lifts, and pries, and whips, and,—l hope he
does not swear—all to no purpose. The tree must
be cut so low that the sled can pass over it. Then,
and not till then, he can get away.
I might extend these comparisons to every de
partment of We b s busy field. Now, sir, can this

Rout , tx Potturay.—This disease, frequently call
ed in this country . 1 ' swelled heads," attacks both
common bam•yardlowls and turkeys. The first
symptoms are watery !laid being discharged froth
the - eye. The eyelids boon become inflamed and
swell ; and the swelling extends more or less over
the head. A feta discharge proceeds from the
nostrils, which so obstructs respiration that the
fowl is constantly sneezing and gasping. In bad
cases one or both eyes are frequently destroyed.—
The disease is believed to be contagious, and as
soon as a. fowl is it should be removed to
some and comfortable Place where there will
be no liability of the malady being communicated
to others. If many fowls are &reeled, it will be

Special Matures. far Trees.
For old apple or c hards l ugo 4 theactildefickenk is
lime we-stoidd rectintritendkiop-ditisri4or
—for the first time—of two hundred bushels to the
acre: This will usually, if the land is in good con
dition, bring the trees into god bearing condition
again. in some soils the efieci will be immediate
and in others it will require one or two seasons for
the lime to produce its effect.
For sniadleil •sized bearing trees, a peck of air
slacked lime tq each tree is; sufficient It, is, per
haps, Devi, opined in the autumn, but it will tui
met very well in the spring. Scatter it evenly
over the surface of the ground, so far as the roots
extend. It may be ploughed or hoe4 - untier *slight
ly, or left upon the surface, as it will find its way
downward in the soil.
To keep an apple orchard in the fruit-bearing
condition, in soil not calcareous, and not natur
ally cmfgenial to the tree, it should be dressed
with lime, and with ashes, every alternate autumn
and immured every other spring. The same Om
tity of spent ashes as of lime may be wed for each
tree.
For the pear tree we prefer the following corn
post : take a wagon load of peat, or black, swami)
earth--dissolve twenty pounds of potash in water,
and water the peal thoroughly with the liquid.—
Let it lie a couple of days, and. it is fit for use.—
Or, for the same quantity of peat, use one-third
of a load of leached wood ashes. (or ten bushels
of fresh aihes,) mixing the whole, and letting it
lie a fortnight before using it. Give each middle
sized,,bettiing pear tree a bushel of this compost
an ; a newly planted young tree half a peck,
and others in the spring, the trees may also have a
tap-dressing of bone dust, if easily obtained in the
autumn; at the rate of half a peck to a tree.
The same compost, and the same quantities,
will answer admirably for the grape vine. But
as the- grape is a strong-feeder, and likes mo re
lime than the fear, we would give it, besides an
autumnal coat of lime, at the rate of from fifty
to one hundred bushels to the acre, applied along
with any manure or compost most easily obtained.
For the plum tree, iu light soils, (there is uo dif.
*ldly in growing it in clay soil.) we would re.
commend a compost ma e a 3 idiows: -- --To - twb
wagon kolas of strong loam, or yellow day, adri a
bushel of cheap salt and four bushels of lime. Mix
the whole thoroughly , suffering it to lie at least a
fortnight. Apply this at the top layer or dressing
to the soil directly under plum trees, (=reading it
over the surface as tar as the branches extend) at
the tate of two bushels to a middle •sized bearing
tree, or half a peck to a young, newly planted tree.
As a general compost for fruit trees we repea
that nothing is egpal to that formed of ashes and
peat. These materials aro• easily Obtained in all
parts of the country. and they contain the elements
of most essential in the organic and, inorganic
structure of fruit trees. Where peat is not at hand,
use wood ashes alone. at the rate of half a bushel
of leached ashes to each middle sized bearing frui t
tree. But as ashes- furnish only the mineral or in.
organic elements of food, the w'ual supply of- ordi
nary manure musl i tiot. be withheld, unless the soil
is already sufficiently rich .—lfortiraltto-ist for March.
SAVE T 111.: DE.sT SEED VOA .PLANTING--A writer in
the Gardener's Chronicle, (English.) gives some
facts which should induce farmers and others who
preserve reeds, to be careful in regard to sowing
tie difiefent hinds of seed which are produced.—
Ile says he began his experiments with long pod
beans. Ile carefully selected the finest and fullest
pods kir seed,. taking none with fewer than five
beans in each pod ; these saved for seed. The fol
lowing year there were many six seeded pods, and
some with seven. He remarks, U following upthe
same plan, I find this season many more six and
seven seeded pods and some with eight! There
are still a few plants that have five seeded pods,
and it is worthy of remark that the plants have
seldom a six seeded pod upon them, bat all fives ;
on the contrary, a six seeded plant generally' has
nearly all the pods bearing six beans or more."
The above hints are valuable, and it followed
out in the selection of seeds from other pimoss r al.
though the saving may be small, the emelt:de
ted results thro' a large field will be immense.
CULTIVATION OF CABBLOVI.--The best soil is that
which is rather moist for tillage strong and rich—
New land plowed in fall or early spring' is good for
cabbages. If it be, very mellow, that is of tender
sward, it will answer to plow late in spring or ear
ly in summer. Land that has been planted only
one year. in potatoes or other crops will prodUce
good cabbages, but if tle land has been planted se
veral years they are less likely to succeed, on ac
count of numerous insects that oat the roots and
SEIM
To guard agaist this evil,'when it is necessary to
use old land for this purpose put about half a pint
of wood ashes into each hill, and mix it with the
manure, and about one fourth or one half a gill of
salt to the hill, mixed with the soil, which will be
about Bur 16 bushels to the acre. Both of these
substances may be mixed with the manure, and
the labor will be less; and they are excellent ma
mires for cabbage besides the advantages of pre
venting the depredations of insects. Salt is a val
