Tlic prevailing • olor of wilil s|K'cics is a bright Imy ; but Fos ter says that among the troops lie saw in Cen tral Asia, tlie dun and grayish-brown colors were most frequeut. Hell judges the chest nut to be the most common in Tartarian dis tricts. Sir Francis Head states that many of the horses of the Panama are piebald. The black is rarely found among the Arabians. — The leopard spotted horse is said to be Ire queiit in China. In England it ranges from milk white to coal black. Some pi rsons arc inclined to give the preference to dark colors, from tlie fact that among animals generally, the lighter the skin the weaker the energy. Lord Paeon seeius to have entertained the same idea, when he asserted white to be the color of defect. A modern writer asks and answers the fol lowing question : Why are horses with white legs and feet less valuable than those which have them not ? Because even in wet soil and climate, white hoofs are more liable to accident and lameness than black ones, and in stony soil white hoofs are much more liable to break and contract than those of a dark color. Another writer says white feet and a white face on a horse are indications of physiologi cal conditions, not favorable for endurance or any other good quality. They are in fact in dications of a scrofulous tendency. CnossiNG PIIEKP. —For upwards of fifty vears I have seen a trreat deal of crossing- the different kiuas of sheep-—Leicester* with Lei cester*. Leicester* with I'otswohls, Leicester* with South-Downs, and Leicester* with many other kinds of sheep. I have always found the Bakewell or Leicester sheep to improve every kind they have been put to, hy giving them the Bakewell barrel form, small bono, and to feed at early maturity. The first cross in most animals has been proved the best; the next cross generally* produces size and weight, except you put a gigantic animal to the first cross ; when I say gigantic I do not mean an animal made a giant with fat flesh, with the head and ears of a dwarf upon hint—l mean a giant in frame when in a lean state, with bone in proportion, aye, and a head and ears in proportion to his body—a long, thin head, and not a gigantic broad one. (Hants do not pro duce dwarfs, neither do dwarfs produce giants, any more than bulldogs produce greyhounds. It has been proved that a gigantic ram lias been produced from a dwarf ewe ; at the same time it was ] roved that a giant ram lay in the adjoining field, which very easily accounted for the giant being produced from a dwarf.— It lias always been said that like produces like, and a fine bone denotes a feeding propensity : and a long face and ears, with a Roman nose, denotes a large breed. The breeders of Lin colnshire sheep say that neither the Dotswolds nor the Downs mix well with their heavy wooled sheep, hut a dip of the Leicester docs wonders. So says the far-famed Mr. Kirkham, of Hagnabv, Mr. Bakewell always said that extremes were bad, and that the middle-sized animals answer the best for profits. But, above all things, said Mr. 8., let an animal's make be in proportion—not very large in one point and very deficient in another. Size has nothing to do with profit ; it was not what an animal made, so much as what it cost mak ing. Tlie Lincolnshire farmers are second to no men in the improvement of waste lands ; the Wolds, Lincoln Heath, and the Fens, for instance ; the lower parts are now drained hy steam engines. And the breed of sheep which tin v have is the most profitable for tlie:" coun try. ' -r,c (TsOiidoiij FATTENING llocs. When your liogs are at first taken up for fattening they should re ceive two or three doses of flour of sulphur, and as many of copperas, say a tablespoonful at a dose, to be given in messes of a bran or meal, made into slop at intervals of a day apart.—Their food for tlie first two or three week* should be pumpkins, apples and roots, or other vegetables which should be boiled or steamed and made into mashes with bran or meal, tlie latter should lie increased from dav to day so that when they come to have corn, or meal altogether, the change of diet may not be injuriously felt by them. In connection with the subject of feeding grain, we would remind our readers that ground corn meal cooked will go 30 per cent farther in fattening hogs than will raw grain whole, and the whole grain when boiled, will go 10 or 20 per cent farther than when not boiled. During the entire period of fattening, the hogs should be regularly supplied with chtir eonl, ashes, rotten irood and salt. The better animals are fed, and the better they are kept, the more profitable they are. It is said that small twigs of cedar, chop ped fine and mixed with their grain, will cure a cough iti horses, and that this has beeu us ed with complete success. Coreu i.x ITORSES. —We once had a horse that had caught a bad cold, and coughed so severely that he could be heard half a mile.— All sorts of remedies were proposed, enough we should think, to kill any good horse out right. These remedies were all rejected, (al though some might have proved useful,) and the following course persued. The horse was in the first place very careful and moderately used, so as never to produce perspiration—lie he was carefully blanketed when the weather was cold, (it was about mid-autumn,) or when lie was in the least degree heated—he was kept constantly on green and succulent food, clover, roots, &c, and was supplied with a plenty of tlie l>est water at all times. In a few weeks lie was perfectly well. It is an old saying that more depends on the nurse than on tlie phusitiin, which was verified in this instance.— Cultivator. THE MEADOWS OF AMERICA. Governor Wright, of Indiana, says that our grass crop is not properly appreciated. No crop ap proaches so near a spontaneous yield, ami none yields so large a profit. The hay crop of the United States in 1850 he estimates at 14. 000,000 tons ; that for 1855, he estimates at 15,000,000 tons, which is worth J 150,000, 000 ; while the whole cotton crop is valued at only $l2B, 000,000. The grass crop which is used for jiasturago is at least as valuable; NO that siugle herb is worth annually over S3OO, 000,000. * GLASSES should be washed and rinsed in cold water, and the water wip,-d off with one cloth ; 'hen rub dry, p..d ,-|.au with another. i Umiiicss (iTiirbs.
