;|gr:talttmt( gfjartment, Soiling Cattle. This sa ject is becoming one of especial in- j terest to farmers, and more particularly to those who own small farms, and are under the ; necessity of economising in a rigid >degree, in order to support their families. The principle and economy in soiling is tiii : n half an acFe of land can easily be • made to furnish green food for a cow or a horse during the season, tiil it becomes necessary to eom-i raence with winter feed in December, while it requires from an acre and a half to two acres of pasture to keep the same animal the same : length of lime. Besides this great saving of j land, the manure of each animal soiled is ; worth the interest on two acres of land at $5O i per aero, over what it would be on com- j mon pastuiage system. To offset a portion of i this advantage, we most take into the account | the labor it requires to cut the green fodder j and feed it out daily ; and yet 1 an) inclined i to beiieve this labor is no more tbaa a fair i equivalent for the saving of time in d:iving, stock to pasture, and keeping the fences iu a j condition far more expensive than the soiling i system requires. Indeed, on this system,fences | may be dispensed with altogether, except the ! farm enclosure and roadsides. Fencing materials sie now becoming an item of great expense to all farmers, not only in the materials themselves, but also is the labor of building the fences aud keeping them in good repair. Mcraovc-r, the waste land that fences occupy (which is very considerable,) oa 1 the soiling system may all bo cultivated—an Item of considerable importance on small farms ' where the land is divided into small fields. I To adopt this system with the best results, j the land from which the green fodder is to epmc should be adjoining the barn, level and 1 Tery fertile ; and with the abundance of man ure that is procured by soiiine,there is r.o ciifii- j culty in making the land rich asd productive \ The best article for soiling is clover, and : next to this is corn sown in drills or broad cut, oats, miilet, rye, sugar canc (sorghum) j barley, Hungarian grass, and any variety of I grass tbat grows tall and luxuriant which is , relished by stock. Sweet corn is the best to row for soiling.— I have used a kind calied " Darling's prolific," which is wcii adapted to this purpose on ac count of its thrifty growth and its tendency to I tiller, or threw out numerous suckers, it may j he sown at any time from May 15th to July.! It is best to sow it in drills about 18 inches apart with u seed sower. Cattle are kept in ' much better condition by soiling them. They arc often turned out to pasture too early iu I the spring,before the geass is sufficiently grown j to afford them enough to satisfy their hunger, j nnd if there happent to be an early drouth . they can not thrive, ar.d they will hardly get! over the effects of a bad winter's keeping before they enter upon another. On the soiling sys- j tern, a drouth does not serionsly affect the ' stock, as their supply cf fodder is always grcsa, succulent and abundant. Independent of ai! the considerations cf economy that I have named, cows give much more milk when soiled, and yield it more re- j gniariy than when pastured, and the waste of time, and the worrying of cows in driving them > to distant fields in warm weather, are avoid- ; cd. What can be more injurious to a noble j cow than to send au unfeeling boy to drive her n half c. mile to posture every day during the I summer, with the thermometer often up to 50 degrees, while, perhaps, sua is worried by a dog, cr pounded with a club, because she docs ■not happen to suit in her gait, cr otherwise, j b?r driver ? Milk, when thus heated by irn pioper driving of cows, docs not produce cs much cream as it does under other circum stances, which is a good argument in favor of the soiling system. Butter made from the milk of soiled cows does not have that ciiy appearance which i 3 so often tho case in warm weather, when cows are driven to and from their pasture. Nor is there any difficulty in butter "coming" in tho warmest weather, when soiled. A farmer in Walt'nam, Mas?.., is said to have made last season 389 lbs. of butter, from the milk of four corvo, in thirteen week*, fed on green fodder—chiefly grass, and corn sowed broadcast. The cows were not out of the barnyard during that time. Two cf the nr.i j Rials were heifers only two years old, which Lad calves in the spring, and the whole of the milk cf one cf them was taken by her calf dur- j ing six weeks out of the thirteen, and seme of \ the milk of the ether was used in the family ; I from which circumstances it may bo said that the four cows should not be rated at than (be ordinary cncs. A yard should be connected witk the barn, of a size proportionate to tho number of cat tie soiled. For a half dozen cows, about a quarter of an acre is necessary, so that the j weaker ones may not be annoyed by those j that are stronger aud mora pugnacious. They should have an open shed to lie under in ( stormy weather during summer, and in Novem ber they should be hccscd in their stalls at ' night-. On this system of feeding, large quantities ; of roots can be fed to advantago. Indeed, let ; no man think that he can derive the greatest j possible profit from Lis live 6tock who does' not grow root crops. Boots arc the key to all successful farming in England, and they are almost as important here. Carrots stand at the head pf the list here, but turnips in England. Every tnileh cow should be fed a bushel of carrot?, at least, daily, fcom November to June, or some other equivalent root that dees not affect the milk.—T. I>. MRXEZT, Cor. rflke Gentsse Farmer. Clinton, N. V. BARLEY FOR ITRXS. —There is no grain so well suited as food for ben. Barley, when fed with oats and corn, will often be gathered first by the fowls, and liens fed with more or less barley, are said to lay more freely.

Multitudes can, by the aid I j of this remedy, spare themselves Irora the endurance ot , I eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system , will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to ; do this through tiie natural channels of the body by an j i alterative mi-ccine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood | whenever you hud its impuiities bursting through the I skin in pimples, eruptioni. or sores ; cleanse it when you ' find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veins : cleanse it 1 | whenever it is foul, and your Iceiiitgs will tell you when. | j Even where 110 paitienlar disorder is ielt people enjoy j better health, and live longer, for cleansing the blood. I Keep the blood healthy, and all is well; hut with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be uo lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wi< ug, and the gua machinery ot life is disordered < r overthrown. Sarsaparilla has. and deseives much, the repnf ition of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been egre giously deceived by preparations ol it, partly because | the drug alone lias not all the virtue that is claimed for j it. but more because many preparations, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it. contain but little ot the ' J virtue ol Sarsaparilla. or anything else. During late years the public have been misled by large | bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsa parilla lor one collar. Most, of these have been frauds j upon the sick, lor they not only contain little, if any Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever. Ileuce, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of Sarsojmrilla which flood the market, until the name itself is justly de spised, and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat. Still we ca'.l this compound Ssrsaparilla, and in tend to siij.pl/ such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load ol obloquy whidh rests upon it. And we ' ' think we have ground lor believing it lias virtues which j J aic irresistible by the ordinary run of the diseases it is I | intended to cure. In order to secure their complete ; eradication limn the system, the remedy should be judi ciously taken according t-> directions on the bottle. 1 Prepared by Dr. J. (1.
