Parents should also, point it | out to their sons, aud if necessary read it to them carefully, and then hand the article over to them, without comment, unless the remarks be of a mil J, picking nature : " In the wide world there is rso more import ant thing than farmers' boys. They are not so important for what they are as for what they will be. At present they are of but little con sequence too often But farmers'.boys always have been and we presume always will be the material out of which the noblest men arc made. They have health and strength ; tliev have bone and muscle ; they have heart and will; they have nerve and patience; they hare ambition and eudurance; and these are the materials that make men. Not buckrams and broadcloth, and patent leather ar.d beaver-fur, and kid gloves arid watch seals, are the ma terials of which men are made. It takes better stuff to make a man. It is not fat and 1 flesh aud swagger aud self-conceit; nor yet sruai tut s, nor flippancy, uor foppery, nor fastness These make fools, but not men ; not men such as the world wants, nor such as it will honor and bless. It is not long hair, nor much beard, t.or a catie, nor a pipe, nor cigar, nor a quid of tobacco, nor an oath,nor a glasr of beer or brandy, nor a dog and gun, nor a pack of card.-, nor a novel, nor a vulgar book of love and murder, nor a tale of adventures, j that makes a man or Irs anything to do with j making a man. Farmers' boys ought to keep clear of all these idie foolish things. They ; should be employed with nobler objects They, have yet to be men of the clear grit, honest iutefligenf, induHii >us, amb tons men, who shall love their country and their kind. With the means they posses- how easy for them to be in feet, thvj tirt class men. They have land ; and stock and tools; they have h< alUi and time and mind; they have schools and churches and papers ; they have books and perseverance ! and the heart and hand for work. More than ; this they need not. Let them awake and work j and read and sluJy. It is not a!! work, nor yet ail study, that will make them men of the right stamp. They must work intelligently and study with an earnest purpose of being | benefitted, and they will become what they ougLt to be, the real nun of the world." DAIRY FARMING. — For the last dozen years ! there has been, perhaps, no branch of hus bandry that has uniformly yielded to tlie bus > bandman better or surer profits than a judi ciously managed dairy. Nothing pr >dirjcd ! upon the farms of this country meets with a more ready sale than milk, butter find cheese, especially when pure, of good quality and well j put up. Calves and pork, incidental to a well conducted dairy, also sei l readily for cash and [ remunerative prices, it is not our purpose at this time to discns the merits of the different brec-us oi cows for dairy porpost ~ since to ih any Fort, of justice to that branch of the tub i i t would occupy a much iaivr space than \ie have now at flisp sr.L Yet it i? o. sncii im parlance t sto demand the most careful con eiaerauon.and Ultimate knowledge of the differ^ 1 cat lire, ils ol cows iti u their c tßparative m.-ri for the several branches of dairy husbandry. As ( harh s L. I* tint, >n his recently published book upon Milch Cows and Dairy Farming, well remark..,the objects of the dairy arc threi told ; the production of milk for sole, mainly i confined to mi.a U.i iies,ai-il to a smaller farms ! in the vicinity as large towns, where a mixed husbandry is followed ; the production of but tor,chiefly confined to farms at u distu.eefiom cities and large towns which furnish a ready ! uiuiket for milk ; and the fabrication of clieo.-e , carried on under circumstances soim what simi lar to the manufacture of butter.andsometimes J mixed with it as an object of pursuit on the I far in. These different objects should be kept in j view iu the sclce: ion of cows ; for animal- which : would lie iiio.-t profitable fur the iiiiik duiry, , might Levct'j unptmifable for the butter or! do esc cb.iry. Tiia In t con - of the best known breeds, when improperly managed and kept j upou uusuitable feed, may, and almost always I do, prove unprofitable—and the same is tine I of all other kinds of firm stock. To make the I most that can be uiade out of a dairy, great i care, coupled with a good degree of knowledge : an i skill, is required. Cows should be kept in a p'.ifei !y h althy condition,and fed upon the kind of fool adapted to the production of the ] largest quantity of milk or butter. Another! important thing is that cows should have good j dry yards, with comfortable sheds in summer, and warm, weli ventilated stables in winter, j and always plenty of the purest of water.— When ail these conditions are complied with dniry farming cannot but be remunerative. T iieu again, when butter and cheese is made for the market, it nui-t be well and neatly put up, in order to command the highest price.— It costs no more tof make a hundred pounds nf butter of the finest quality,than it does to pro duce a very inferior article, while there is from fifty to a hundred per cent, difference in their value when brought to market. The best arti cle always meets with u ready sale,aud reflects credit upon the maker and vender, while the oilier is a drug at any price, and may well oc casion a blush of shame upon the face of him who makes or sells it.— American Slock Jour nal. Wnrx TO CUT TlMTJEß. —Conversing with an intelligent farmer of large experience, upon this subject, we found he fully sustained the views heretofore expressed in the Agriculturist vi/. : that the lest season for cutting timber is about mid-summer. His explanation was, that during the latter part of June and early in July, when the foliage is in its fullest vigor the upward draft upon the sap is so great that very little moisture is left in the the tree, con sequently the timber seasons hard and sound bit that during March and April there is so much water in the wood, that insects bore into it readily, thus producing "powder post" through all the sup portion, and even into the heart wood. He mentioned tiie instance of a neighbor who cut his timber for a house in June, but whea he came to work it out iu the AN .titer, he lacked some ribs or slats upon which to nail the long roof shingles, lie cut enough to Supply the deficiency during the lat icr part ol \\ inter,and completed the house. After the lap-e ot a few years, he examined the roof, aud found the -lats which were cut in Summer, perfectly sound, while those cut in Winter, wore-Uviiy affected by dry root and " powder post." Our informant bad also prov ed the same thing himself. Jttfsccllanrous. jsusqotjwuiw Collegiate Institute, TOWAXDA, BRADFORD CO., PA. FA.Cn.TY : OLIVER S.DEAN, A.B.
