The following is a valuable article, mid rely es '

attention than it has received in this country
ISIR—In one of tour late papers. I saw mentioned
successful way of raisiog chickens. 1 have been
in the habit of raising them for sonic years, and it
you think favorably of the niorle I have adopted,
you can insert it in your valuable paper.
keep my liens warm under co% cr dieing 'the
wittier and feed them on " Brewers (:rains," placed
in an open hex or tith, that they may eat when they
please, occasionally give them oats, corn, oyster
shells pounded fine, and plenty of water—by .keep
ing them warm and well-led, they begin laying
earlier in the season. • I prefer spring chickens, as
they lay earlier than Mil hens—and the old hens to
set, as they • make the best mothers. I take care
the eggs do not get chilled *with cold, and keep
them in a warm place in the house. Place twelve
or fifteen &Ts under each of them, according to
size—the day of the month marked on each egg—
and after the lien has set a week or ten days,l
examine them by holding the eggs to a crack or
knot hole in a board, where the sun sbioestbrough,
and if I discover any rotten ones, I take them
away and replace them with fresh ones, marked-as
before mentioned. When the chickens are all
Imtched, I put two or three of the broods to one of
the hens, in a coop with an openirg against an
Nitrify bartelplaced on the bilge, and with little
care when put in the coop, the hen may be made
to brood them at the further end of Ala barrel. In
that'n-Ity the chickens that are nut covered by the
hen huddle wound her and keep each other warm.
The hen being confined in the coon, Will leave her
chickens much earlier than tit left 'to run at lar-c.
with them, and the chickens will become so ac
customed to going into the barrel and huddling
together as to be quite contented to give up the
hen's brooding them. After the chickens are two or
'three weeks old, I remove them with the coops in
to my garden, where they feed upon insects so as
to require but little fe;sl—but do not keep them
there' until they are large enough tb injure the

l'orAvotts. emus.:When this valuable

is well illustriled by the folliiwing apologiie

he gave her a third of the vineyard for her podion,
notwithstanding which he cool:limed to have the
same quantity of fruit as before. When- the
youngest daughter was utrried7.lm gave her half
of what remains, and still the produce of his vine
yard was undiminished ! This extraordinary result
was the consequence of his bestowing as much la
bor on the tkiril port left as he had been accustomed
to bestow upon the whole vineyard.
A good moral try be drawn from this aix love,
even by the farmers of We4ern New York in this
enlightened age. Cultivate a little land %yell, Anil
p it well be more profitable, in proportion to the labor
expended, than the cultivation of much land in a
careless and unfaithful manner. This self evident
truth has been repeatedly urged upon the attention
'of the agricultural cominimity, and yet it would
appear that it Is little heeded, for the order of the
day appears-to be, to treble the acres, rather than
the products of the soil.
The evils of this system are already becoming
apparent in our country. We see farmers .beconi
ii.g appenw,,, , es of others, and many tracts favorable
for tillage speak a• plainly as lands can speak, a
mournful tale of ignUrance on the part of the pro
prietors. The vain ambition ro become a great
land holder, may add many acres to a farm, per-,
haps already toolarge, and thns increase a responsi
bility Which the owner may by no means be able
to carry. Such a man forgets that the intrinsic value
of a farm does not consist in the number of acres,
but in its productions, and in the excellence of the
acres of which it is composed.
And this reminds me of an anecdote, which may
not he out of place to record. A good practical
lamer. one day . travelling through a part of the
conntry;came to a spot where the occupant bad
increased around him many hundred acres as a
farm .• Ile gazed upon the half tilled soil with a
feeling akin to sadness. •At length seeing a man
with a physiognomy betokening a broken spirit,
coming from an extensive field of wheat, overtop
ped by weeds, that might yield tour or five bushels
to the acre, he said to him in accents of commis
er.fion, "-qty friend, I pity you from the bottom of
my heart."
4• Oh, sir," said the other, while a smile . of pride
end exultation played around his month, and for a
moment illumined his wo begone countenance, " I
am not so midi to be pitied as you imagine ; for I
own only one knifof this crop."
Let there be . a dispos lion among our fanners to
improve snout farms, cultivate off the soil, and
cultivate it well, the population and riches of wes
tern and Eastern N. York will continue to increase
to a surprising extent. Notwithstanding . the mul
tiplication of states in the West our own New York
would still be the Empire State, and continue to
exercise an important influence on the councils of

TFIE FARMER'S IDAUCMTER.---There is a world of

suddenly shot through with a pair of bright eyes,
and melted away in a be4itching smile that you
never dreamt of till the mischief was done. In
towns and theatres, and in thronged assemblies of
the rich and titled fair, you are on your guard ; you
know what you are exposed to, and put 'on your
breast-plate, and pass through the most deadly
onslaught of beatry safe and sound. But it, those
sylrail retreats, 4re:ening ofriightingales, and heat

leaps a stile. You *and lost in wonder and asion
khe'd admiration! You take out your tablets to

Dryades to earth, when up comes John Teritp'kins,
and says, " Its only the farmer's daughter." What
have Linnets such daughters now-a-days ! Yes,)
tell you they have. Those farm-houses are dan
gerous places. Let no man with poetical imagine
alio'', which is only another name fur a very ten
der heart, flatter himself with fancies of the calm
delights of the coutstry—with the serene idea of
sitting with a farmer in his old fashioned chimney
corner, and hearing tries talk of corn anti mutton

the comfortable fanner's wife, of the parson and

vegetables they should not be put into the water
mail it is fully heated, and then there should be ne
cessation of heat until the cooking is . finally done.
But when meats are to be boiled, quite an opposite
procedure is to be 01-servelf. They require to be
put in the water white it is cold; or, in case of
fowls, while Pie water is a little warm; then, instead
of rapid boiling the water be merely simmered.—
By'this_process the meat is made tender, while
by fierce boiling it is hardened and tough.
There is muck due to the tarmestion as to the
manner of cooling, boiling, 'broiling, roasting, or
baking, of both vegetables and meats. Having
heard the siv , - , estion dial potatoes should be put in
to boiling, instead of :cold water over the fire,while
warming the feet in the kitchen at the time of
cooking an early breakfast, we saw the water
boiling before the tnall ' hal brought in the potatoes
taken that morning from the ground. The soil of
the 'garden wits so rich as to make the potatoes
