How to use Rough Fodder.
Every farm produces a large supply of coarse
material, the straw of ihe grains, the stalks
and buts of corn,and the liny from swamps and
marshes. These all contain raor less nourish
ment when well cured, and are available for
food. It is a common practice in man? parts
of the country, to foddeV them out from the
stack yard upon the frozen ground, where hall
starved cattle are constrained to eat them, or
perish. This is the poorest use they can put
to. Better use the whole for bedding and
manure, than make them the means of tor
menting brutes, with the pangs of hunger.
All this corse material should be kept un
der cover, and run through a hay cutter before
it is fed out. It should then be mixed with
Indian meal, or some concentrated food. The
most of it will then be eaten, and while the
coarser portions give bulk to the food,the finer
parts and the meal will furnish nourish men'
two essential qualities in the fodder of the rum
inating auimals. It will be better still, if the
commingled mass can be steamed or boiled.—
This process softens the coarse, hard stalks
and straw, and enables the animal to digest .
them more perfectly. The use of steamed j
food is increasing among those who have suffi
cient capital to carry on the business of funn
ing. It enables one to work up all the rough
fodder, and to pass it through the stomachs
of thriving cattle. It gathers up the fragments
60 that nothing is lost.
If the steaming apparatus or a large boiling
kettle, be not yet ready, and the wra! is not
toibe had, it is a good plan to mix sliced roots
with the coarse fodder cut up short. Turnips,
beets, carrots, parauep's, and mangle wurtzels,
are rapidly reduced to fine chips with a root
cutter, and are highly relished by cattle.—
They ought to be used in connection with hay
or straw. Animals will thrive much better
upon this mixture, than upon either used sep
arately.
In any one of these ways, rough fodder may
be turned to good account, and all stabled ani
mals be kept full fed from the close of the
grazing season until Spring. This careful pre
servation cf fodder will greatly increase the
manure heap, and add to the riches of the
farm. Stuff the auimais, that they may stuff
the soil.
THOCGHTS FOR TFTF. THornHTrvr. —Most of the
diseases of sheep are the consequence of debili
t J.
FARMERS who find it necessary to reduce
their flocks, should be very particular in select
ing those that they keep, and let none but the
poorest go from their farms.
SHEEP IN* WINTER should have fresh air,shel
ter from cold winds, a little exercise,occasional
change of quarters, dry, clean lodging, and
nutritious food. A close, damp, low yard is
their abomination.
A CROSS between the South-Down and the
Merino makes a very useful and profitable
sheep. The wool will sell for neirly as ranch
as the Mi rino, and lambs will bring more for
the butcher.
SHEET are perhaps the most profitable stock
on suitable land, and with good management ;
but on unsuitable soil and ili management,they
are the least desirable of farm stock. " What
the man is worth the land is worth." What
the shepherd is worth the sheep are worth.
ALL animals should, if possible, be housed,
or provided wi h shelter. Cattle require much
less food when stabled, than when allowed to
run at large, as they waste little or none, and
comfort is essential to their thrift. More man
ure is also secured, an object of great eoi.se
quence to every farmer that understands his
interests. Sheep,if housed, must not be crowd
ed into close stabie.s or houses, as disease is
apt to be t-he result ; and all animals require to
have their stables well ventilated to prevent
the effects of bad air. Horses are better fed
from mangers than racks, and sheep should
never have their food so that they draw it
from above, as the grass seeds and chaff fall
upon and fiii their wool, injuring it materially.
IT must never be forgotten by the farmer
that there are works of charity and kindness,
that more frequently press their claims uprn
him during the winter, than any other time
While his happy' family is clustered around
the cheerful hearth ; while his table is loaded
with the bounties which a kind providence,
personal industry, and a fruitful soil have given
him ; while his wood-house is filled, his gran
aries overflowing, anu every reasonable want
supplied ; he must not forget there are other
less favored individuals or families around ;
children destitute of lire and wood ; widows
and orphans distressed and destitute, all re
quiring care, and not to be forsaken while the
frosts of winter are upon the earth For the
poor there must be employment; for the desti
tute there must be a supply ; and the 'honest
and industrious, or the unfortunate poor, have
claims on the more fortunate, that may not be
disregarded. Well directed charity is one of
the few acts of life in which both the giver
and the receiver are blessed ; let no one then
forget the poor.
EVERY drop of milk Ihoiild he drained from
the udder at each milking, for two reason--,
that the last pint taken from the cow will
make more butter than the first quart, and
that the cows will afterwards fail to give just
as much milk as is left in the udder.
HORSES should always have plenty of litter
in their stables ; it answers a double purpose ;
first by absorbing and retaining the suits ol
the urine that fall upon it in a considerable
degree, and thus rendering the manure more
valuable ; and secondly, by preventing in part
that liability to sweli, to which the feet and
legs of a horse are subjected wheu standing on
a hard or plank floor.
NEGLIGENCE and inattention is as inexcusa
ble in the winter as in the summer ; and fre
quently is productive of worse effects. How
often do we see farmers suffer such losses in
their flocks and herds from sheer inattention
or idleness in the winter, that a year of hard
labor aud privation will hardly place them in
their first position. If cattle and horses were
looked to as they should be, or if sheep and
swine were not left to get their living by hook
or by crook, we should not see so many walk
ing skeletons harnessed or yoked to the plow
in the spring, or so many carcases around the
fields and roads inviting the crows to their
feast. The prudent, careful farmer will con
sider the winter as the trying time for his
stock, aud by shelter, and sufficient food,avert
its rigor, and prevent its consequences as far
as possible.

THESE unrivalled Machines need no puffing,
and only want to 1* seen to insure the approbation
of every individual * and although anew applicant for
public patronage in this locality, it has attained a popu
larity hereto! - "; a unsurpassed by any Machine. Atteb
one year of constant use ia the Western States, they
have been pronounced the best Machine in the world for
family use/and are preferred to the higher priced Ma
chines. Thoe who want farther proof have only to pur
chase one and give it a fair trial, and if they find they
cannot use it. they can return it and have their money
refunded. They are warranted as durable as any of the
higher priced Machines, and are divested of everything
like complicated machinery.
They will Stitch. Hem" Tuck, Fell, Gather ar.d Em
broider with perfection, and will sew every kind of goods
fio.c the finest Swiss Muslin to the heaviest and coarsest
cloth fabric—even Leather.
Toe following reasons are selected from the many, why
RAYMOND'S is ihe best in the Market:
1 Because it is the cheapest. 2ltia by far the simplest.
2 The least liable to get out of order, -t The easiest
managed and understood. 5 It makes tho celebrated
Double Lock Stitch, which is the most elastic ever made
by machinery. C It will r.ot rip if a stitch gets broke
or every fourth cut. 7 It makes the neatest and hand
somest stitch. 8 The seams are the strongest. 9 It u-es
two threads from the ordinary spools as bought from the
store, without re winding. 10 They finish their work
without fastening the thread at either end ox the seam
with the hand needle as is required by tiie Shuttle Stitch
Machines. 11 It has the least machinery. 12 Its mechan
ism is the most perfect. 13 It is the most popular among
the masses. 11 It is the easiest running, and almost
noiseless in its operation. 15 It is an ornament for any
parlor. 1(5 It combines the advantages of both Hand
and Foot Powers. 17 The price is within the reach of
every family. 18 any person of ordinary intelligence
can learn to use it successfully in one hour's time—
-19 They can d > all kinds of work that any high priced
Machine can, and just as well. 20 Every Machine is
warranted to give satisfaction or the money refuxded.
We, the undersigned, ate each one of us using one of
Raymond's Latest Improved Double-Thread Family Sew
ing Machines, and we take pleasure in this manner of
confidently recommending itto all persous who want a
good Sewing Machine ; tor we find if easily managed,
very durable and strong, not liable to get out of order,
and easily adjusted for all kinds of work, by simply
changing the needles and sttools of thread, and believe
the work much stronger, better and more perfect in every
respect than that made by hand.
