Early Fattening of Animals. The philosophy of increase of fat in animals is, that the digested food not needed to sup ply waste in the system, is laid up in the form o? fat around the muscles, ready to be absorb ed attain into the circulation if needed. Waste is induced by combustion in the lungs, of the digested food, to supply animal heat Hence the same amount of food given in warm weath er will, if digested, afford a greater surpnls of fat than when fed in cold weather. Ilogs or other animals intended for fattening should be shut up this month. Many advocate making the size of the fa'tening pen so small that the animal will have just room to stand or lie.— While confinement favors rest a disposition to fatten, too close quarters are not healthful for the animal which needs moderate exercise to promote digeston. The quality of the flesh produced most be somewhat impaired by any confinement that interferes with the health.— The appetite may be kept op by change of food a frequent supply of green vegetables, such as corn, cabbage leaves, pea-vines, and the refuse of the garden. Cooked food digests much more easily than raw, and is in a condition to yield more nourishment, and is also better relished by most kinds of stock. Cleanliness in the fattening pens should not be overlooked.— Although pigs proverbially are filthy, they are not really so; they do not delight in the effluvia of their own droppings, as any one can see by noticing that they generally appropriate one portion of the pen to filth. An occasional washing and scrubbing wiih soap suds will con duce much their thrift—all animals keep in condition more easily wbea the skin is kept clean and healthy. SAVE THE VEGETABLE SEEDS. —Many seeds are annually wasted from not being gathered at the right time. They left till a convenient season, and then one "job" is made of it. In this way,as they do not ripen at the same time, the first matured and most valuable are lost and many are taken while yet green and worth less. The garden should be visited every day from the first ripening, and the mature heads collected, the stalks being severed with a sharp knife or shears. Sheets or uewsp.ipers may be spread upon the floor of a chamber or garret, and the different kinds laid separately upon them. When the gathering is completed, and the seeds have thoroughly dried rub them out, cleau them, aud put them in bags of cloth or paper. Each parcel should be distinctly label ed with the name, and the year when gather ed. Many vexatious mistakes will thus be avoided next Spring. All seeds for future planting should be kept as far as possible from heat, moistnre and light. The vitality will be impaired, if not destroyed, by carelessness in this respect. Tin cases, glass jars, or even tight wooden boxes are preferable to leaving them loose in the "closet." SELECT SEED CORN THIS MONTH. —The best seed will be likely to produce the best crops next year. Pass through the corn field this month and select the fullest and most forward ears, from stalks bearing twoor three ears, and in some way mark the hills. As soon as ♦tiflk-i --ently ripened they should be gathered, braided together by the husks into " traces." ond hung in a dry place. If this plan lie followed up. there will be an improvement in the quality, quantity, and early maturity if the (ther pro cesses of cultivation are properly attended to. COUNTRY BOYS. —Country lads often feel that their lot is a hard one Thev see city bred youngsters 011 their travels and their sprees at the age of fourteen ! veritable young geutlemen, with a finished exterior, a cigar and a cane. The young fanner at the same age finds himself with a hoe in hand and a cheap straw hat on his head sweating among the hills of corn. He is frequently envious of his city brother—whisking past him in the cars with kid gloves, delicate ringlets, aLd plenty of money in his pocket. Mind your cjrn, boy ; line it out clenn, keep stoidily to the labor you have in hand, do it well, and in time your good days will come too. If you find farming is not suited to your taste or vour strength, or circumstances ; it you like mechanism better or have a capacity for busi ness, whatever eventually yon may engage in it is all the same ; you have begun right. The city blades have begun wrong, and in due time you will see it. Their fathers and mothers will, in the end, see it, too. Do not feel envious of the pleasures that a hot house man enjoys, remember, not in a malicious {but sober spirit, that soch plants wither early. l>y the time you have acquired fixed habits of industry,and acquired a corresponding perfection of mind and body, your delicatelyjrearedcotemporary of the town begins to feel the debilitating effects of idleness and dissipation. lie is not alone to blame for a weak body and a profitness mind—it is the residt of a system ; but lie can not escape from its effects, these he must en dure for himself in his own person. Ilis father may be a professional man or a merchant, or may be merely rich—the chances are fifty against one that the son will not replace his father. Such is the result of well settled ex perience ; business falls into the hands of those who are most competent ; it does not descend to heirs. It is the country boys, after all,who do the city business. Observing men have often stated this fact, and inquire into the origin of Cleveland, or Boston, or New York, you will find it to be so. All external circumstances are in favor of the son or the elerk succeeding to the trade of the old firm ; but the sou seldom almost never dies in the position of a partner of the house. Why is it ? Simply because habitual industry in wanting, and habitual in dulgence is not wanting. With all the exter nal odds against it, the country furnishes the cities their principal business men. If intelli gent, faithful, and persevering and, above all, cheerful and contented, the chances are that the lad with the hoe will eventually do the business of the father of the lad in gloves, who is now luxuriating in his travels.— Ohio Farm. THERE are many who suppose it necessary to leave the second growth of grass undislurb cd, to rot on the ground, in order to preserve the fertility of old meadows in grass where top dressing with manure is not resorted to. But such management is cfteutimes extremely hurt ful, and tbe injury is proportioned to the amount left untrodden nnd unused. If the amount left standing, or laying loose opon the surface, be considerable, it makes a harbor for mice, which will under cover of the old grass, intersect the surface of the laud with paths in numerable; from which they cnt all the grass that comes in their way.— H.

D. PAYNE. A NEW AGRICULTURAL SETTLE -1 V MENT—To all wanting farms, a rare opportunity in a delightful and healthy climate 25 miles southeast of Philadelphia on the Camden and Atlantic Railroad, New Jersey. An old estate consisting of several thousand'of acres'of productive soil has been divided into Farms of various sizes to suit the purchaser. A population of some Fifteen Hundred, from various parts of the middle States and New England have settled there the past year, im proved their places, and raised excellent crips. The price of the laud is at the low sum of from sls to S2O per acre, the soil is of the best quality for the production of IVneat, Clover. Corn, Peaches, tiraj.es and I'egeta bles. It is considered the best fruit soil in the Union.— The place is perlectly secure from frosts—the destructive enemy of the farmer. Crops of grain, grass and fruit are now growing and can be seen. By examining the place itself, a < orrect judgment can be "foonied ol the produc tiveness of the land. The terms are made easy to secure the rapid improvement of the land, which is only sold lor actual improi emcut. The result has been, that within the past year, some three hundred houses have been erected, two mills, one steam, four stores, some forty vinyard and Peach orchards, planted, and a large number of other improvements, making it a desirable and active place of business. The Market, as the reader may perceive from its loca tion, is the best in the Union. Produce bringing double the price than in locations away Irom the city, and more than double the price than the West. It is known that the earliest and best fruits and vegetables in this latitude come from New Jersey, and are annually exported to the extent of millions. In locating here, the settler has many advantages. He is within a few hours ride of the great cities of New Eng land and Middle States, he is near his old friends and as sociations, he is in a settled country where evert/ improve ment of comfort and civilization is at hand. He can buy every article he wants at the cheapest price, and sell his produce lor the highest, (in the West this is reversed.) he lias schools for his children, divine service, and will enjoy an open winter, and delightful climate, where lev ers are utterly unknown. The result of the change upon those from the north, has general.y been to restore them to an excellent state of health. Jn the way of building and improving, lumber can be obtained at the mills at the rate of $lO or sls per thou s-nd. Bricks from the brick yard opened in the place every article can he procured in the place, good carpen ters are at hand, and there is no place in the Union where buildings and improvements can be made cheaper. The reader will at once be struck with the advantages here presented, and ask himself why the property has not been taken up before. The reason is, it was never thrown in the market; and unless these statements were correct, no oue would be invited to examine the land before pur chasing. This all are expected to do. They will sec the land under cultivation, such is the extent of the settle ment that thev will no doubt, meet persons, from their own neighborhood ; they will witness the improvements and can judge lie character i the poptfation. If they come with a \ lew to seitle, they should come prepared i-j stay a day or two and lie ready to purchase, as locations cannot be held on refusal. There are two daily trains to Philadelphia, and to all settlers who improve, THE RAILROAD COMPANY GIVES A FREE TICKET FOR SIX MONTHS, AND A HALF-PRICE TICKET FOR THREE YEARS. THE TOWN OF HAMMONTON—In connection with the agricultural settlement, a new and thriving town has naturally arisen, which jnesents inducements for any kind of business, particularly xtorcs and manufactories. The Shoe business could be carried on in this place and market to good advantage, also cotton business, and manufacto ries of agricultural implements or Founderie* for easting small articles. The improvement has been so rapid as to insure a constant and pe-nianent increase of business Town lots of a good size, we do not sell small ones, as it would effect the improvement of the place, can be had at from SIOO and upwards.
