Jgritulfurul Department. Save the Leaves. If Rro. Jonathan was as saving of mannres ns John 1 >a!! is, he would be a better farmer. No one knows until he has seen it, how care ful English and European farmers and gard eners are of everything which can be convert ed into manure. And this is one ground of their*superiority in agriculture. Now, let us repeat w hat we have often said that few thing are more valuable lor fertiliz ing purposes than decayed leaves. They are • hardlj inferior to barn yard manure. Gather them up, now, this very mouth of November, before they are covered by the snow. They are abundant everywhere, lying in heaps and windrows in the forest and "by the roadside,and by the fences in every yard. The wood-lot should not lie stripped clean of them ; but doubtless every farmer's laud contains more of j them here and there, thau he can liud time to cart home. Gather them up, by raking, or by sweeping with a large birch broom. Stack them and pack them in the large wagon, ad ding side-boards as high as convenient; you will hardly get too heavy a load. Cart them home, and use them as bedding for cattle and j horses ; use- thcra for compost in the stable- ' yard ; use them to protect tender grape vines and shrubs and plants in Winter. Strawberry patches will fairly sing for joy under snch a leathery blanket. By all means, save the leaves, and use them. A LEAK IN* THE STABLE. —Not a leak in the roof, though that would be bad, but in the iloor, which is worse, and many leaks too, ! leaks between every plank ? Why not make ■ the floor tight us possible, and have one gutter near the heels ot the stock, to carry oil' the urine into a tank below,or into aheap of muck or other absorbent ? Or, in place of this ar- ' rangeiucnt, have the lloors well covered with ! litter, of straw, peat.tan-bark,saw-dust,plaster or any dry absorbent material. Any body can see that this would save nearly ail the urine for useful purposes, and wouid make the air of the stables pleasant and healthful to the stock and their owners. The importune of this economy will appear when we rcfleet that the liquid voidings of a cow range from nine hundred to twelve hun dred gallons a year, according to the age and size of the animal : and of a horse,from eleven to fourteen hundred gallons; which are worth more, pound for pound, than the soiid excre ments. As we have often said,the Chinese,and Ger mans, and other European farmers, save this [ portion of their manure with far greater care than we do. They would as soon let diver slip j through holes in their pockets, as this manure I leak through holes in their stable lloors.— j Doubtless, American farmers waste millions of j dollars annually in this way. Friendly reader j how much to you waste? CoI! FOISTS LOIS Cows.—Now that the cold I season is setting in,let the cows, especially the j milk-givers, have all needful attention. They should he well housed and well fed. The stables should be ju>t moderately warm, well ventilated,'clean, auu provided with suitable bedding. A dde from the mere matter of food and drink, the animals should be kept comfort able. This matter can hurdiv be over estimat ed. 'i lien, as to fodder : part of this, of course, should be straw and hay and corn-stalks ; bit to expect cows to give much niiik on such lean fare, is folly. Favor them with messes of chop- ' ped roots, of cut straw,-or stalks mixed with ! i meal of some kind. A favorite ' mess' for cattle, with a friend of ours i.s this : Cut up liay, or straw, or sulks, in pieces not more than an inch, or inch and a half long, put the provender, in a tub or tight box, and pour boiling water upon it ; then sprinkle on a little salt, and cover the whole with a little bran or meal to keep the steam in. When cold, feed it in !ue->e> id a hu.diL'l at a time. Good us this is, it - i HI. 1 be varied from time to time, ] tor cows like variety, as well as men. Cows 1 : houal be salted two or three times a week.— 1 In mild weather they should range by day iu a cumnn liou- yard, protected on two sides, at l< isl, by covered sheds. And this yard should have a pen-stock of running water,or a trough kept lull :rom a good pump : the lirst is the best. A !>*, •.NTACES OF Pl LVF.RIZING THE Soil.— '1 he ellee > ol pulverization or stirring the soil are numerous : 1. It gives free scope to the roots of vege tables ; and they become more librous in a loose thau in a hard soil, by which the mouths or pores become more numerous, and such food as is the soil lias a better chance of being sought alter and taken up by them. -. It admits the atmospheric air to the I spongioles of the roots—without which no plant can make a healthy growth. b It increases the capillary attraction or spongelike property of soils, by which their humidity is rendered more uniform ; and iu a hot season it increases the deposit of dew, and and admits it to the root. 4. It increases the temperature of the soil in the same spring, by admitting the warm air and tepid rain. 5. It increases the supply of organic food. The atmosphere contains carbonic acid ammonia and nitric acid, —all most powerful fertilizers and solvents. A loose soil attracts and con- Lain and dew, also, coutaiu them. And when the fertilizing gases ure carried into the soil by rain water, thev are absorbed and retaiued by the soil, for the use of plants. Oil the other hand, if the soil is hard, the water runs off the surface, and in stead ol leaving these gases iu the soil, carries off some ol the best portions of tlie soil, with it. ilius, what might bo a benefit becomes an injury. G. By means of pulverization, a portion of the atmospheric air is buried in the soil, and it is supposed that ammonia and nitric acid are formed by the mutual decomposition of this and the moisture of the soil—heat also being evolved by the changes. 7. Pulverization of the surface of soils serves ! to retain the moisture in the subsoil, and the j prevent it from being penetrated by heat from j a warmer, as well as from radiating its heat ' to a colder, atmosphere thau itself. The effects are produced by the porosity of the pu.u-rzed stratum, which acts a mulch,especi* 1 ally on heavy soils. S. 1 uherizatioa, also,as the combined effect of several of the preceding causes, accelerates ! the decomposition of the organic matter iu the soil, and tile disintegration of the miueral matter ; and thus prepares the inert matter of the soil for assimilation by the plants.

Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of ontrageons opposition, Or by taking up arms against a sea of printing ink, And opposing, end them." FTMiK proprietor of the Argus takes o casion in stiver- L rising his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for fling about a sort of a concern," which is hoping '* to delude the public." As I have opened a Bindery on my own ac count, the inference is that if the pnblic bring their binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded. For two years I have worked for Mr. PARSONS, and he has taken great pains t s itist'y the public I was the " best Binder in America," as the columns of the Argus will testify. Has he been all that time " deluding the pub lic ?"* If 1 have been engaged in a fraud, he has been the principal. But 1 refer to my work during that time as evidence that there has been no fraud practiced. Having served a long apprenticeship at the Bindery business, I have resumed business here on my own ac count, as I know of nothing which prevents me from fol lowing a legitimate and bawful calling for my support I shall endeavor by good work and attention to my busi ness to give public satisfaction.

Let Manufacturers, Planters, Farmers, Housekeepers, or any other persons in search of an instrument to execute any kind of kiiul of Sewing now done by machinery, make sure they secure the best, by examining ours before pur chasing. A lew of mady reasons why the SEWING MACHINES of I.ADD, WEBSTER A CO., are prefered above all others 1. They arc so remarkably simple in their construction. A child can operate them and understand the mechanism 2. They are the strongest Sewing Machine made. It is almost impossible to break or get them out ot order. 3. They arc sure in their operatiou ; finishing the work in a uniformly perfect manner. 4. They make a tight lock stitch, alike on both sides of the work, which cannot lie unraveled. 5. They stitch, hem, bind, fell, run and gather, with out basting. fi. They sew equally well the lightest and the heaviest fabrics. 7. They sew over the heaviest seams without changing the tension or breaking the finest thread. 8. 1 hey use any No. of Cotton, Thread or Silk directly from the spool. 0. They use a straight needle; curved ones are liable to break. 10. The needle has a perpendicular motion. This is absolutely necessary for heavy work. 11. They have a wheel feed; none others are in coustan contact with the work. 12. They run easily and almost noiseless -13. They are not liable to oil the dress of the operator. 14. They do not require a screw-driver to set the needle. 15. They do not have to be taken apart to oil or clean, lii. They are capable of doing a greater range of work and in a mora perfet manner than any other Sewing Ma chine ; as is proved by the result of our challenge lor a trial, which has never been accepted.
