    Horse Breeding.
At a late meeting of the Windsor Co.
(Vt.) Farmers' Club, the subject before the
Club being the raising and breeding of hor
ses, Mr. Tucker, one of the members of the
Club, said the best quality necessary was a
good native constitution. The indications
of this were strong chest and loins, good
limbs, with good feet under them, and a
proper nervous temperament. For this last
quality, it should be seen that the eyes .re
wide apart, giving room for the brain, and
that they were wide open. The ears should
be wide apart, without lopping. \\ hen
these qualities were secured, as much sym
metry aud beauty should be obtained with
them as possible. One thing more ; it was
necessary to get good sized animals. Brood
mares should be fifteen to sixteen bands
high,and weigh from one thousand to twelve
hundred pounds. Vermont was losing
money on her horses because they were too
small. This was the fault of breeders and
not of the race.
When selecting stallions,fixed blood should
L> ■ preferred to uncertain blood, though the
latter might seem to be about as good.—
But mixed blood should have the prefer
ence over pure blood if the animal posses
sing the former is evidently the best. Hor
ses should never be selected wholly on ac
eoun t of blood.
Mr. Tucker advised his hearers not to
ridicule lite idea of speed. There was a
growing demand for fast horses, especially
near cities, and the class of animals would
continue to bring high prices. When he
heard the gambling argument brought for
ward as an objection, lie was reminded of
the question put by Rev.Henry Ward Beech
er, as to whether none but gamblers should
possess fast horses.
The speaker cautioned breeders never to
use horses nearer than cousins,if they would
avoid progeney of feeble constitutions and
cripples. He would also caution tlietn
against selling their best animals. The
stock of the State he said would have been
much better to-day, if the best brood mares
had been retained City marcs should not
be chosen to breed from, because they had
trotted fast. Neither should old stallions,
whose vitality was gone, be used. In se
lecting brood inarms which had raised colts,
rate should be taken to ascertain what
stallions they had been coupled with, for a
poor stallion left u permanent effect on the
marc. The impressions and temper of the
mare .should be kept good while breeding.
A mare usually imparts more of her pecu
liarities to her male offspring than to her
female. A theory had been advanced that
any desired sex could be secured in breed
ing, the l'rofessor Agassiz had said that lie
had no doubt that this could be done, and
that a council of veterinary surgeons at Al
torf has been investigating the subject with
satisfactory results. The theory was that
during the first half of the heat females
were produced, and during the last half,
males. But good judgment in breeding
would amount to nothing without good
feeding and training. When success in
breed was attained, farmers should follow
lite advice of the physician to his son, and
consider whether the good result was gain
ed by the treatment adopted, or in spite of
it.
Accumulation of Manures-
It lias been well said that the manure
heap is the Farmer's Bank. Iu densely pop
ulated countries, necessity has enforced the
observance of heavy manuring to make up
for limitation of area. Even in China, they
understand this matter far better than we
do. There, every imaginable tiling that
can be converted into manure is carefully
collected. The fat pastures of Holland owe
their extraordinary fertility to the same
cause. f. unl in the populous districts of
Europe never wears out. There are farms
in England that have been under cultiva
tion for eight hundred years, and have so
increased in fertility that where three hun
dred years ago they produced but eight
bushels of wheat to the acre,they now yield
forty. Even the sandy soils of Xorfolk,
meagre as they were but a century ago,
have been so fertilized that they now rank
among the finest in the kingdom. Our
fault has been the neglect of those fertiliz
ing'elements which others have so profita
bly utilized. We have sought to do by ex
cessive labor, and that of the most slovenly
kind, what others accomplish by careful til
lage and high manuring We must set k
to renovate where we have heretofore car
ried oil'successive crops until the soil was
reduced to the point of exhaustion. We
must look, first of all, to lime and marl us
the basis of all permanent improvement.—
\Y e must furnish to the soil those phos
phates which nearly all lands require that
have been under cultivation for any great
length of time ; and to this end, bones, re
fuse feathers, hair of animals, woolen rags,
hoofs and horns of cattle, and the rubbish
of old houses, are all particularly worthy of
being collected, broken up and reduced by
fermentation and applied to the land. In for
ming compost heaps, nothing that enters
into the food of plants should be neglected.
Taking one-third of barnyard manure as a
starting point,all the rest of the ingredients
of the heap may be drawn from extraneous
sources. Assuming that the barnyard will
supply thirty loads of horse . nd cow ma
nure, this small quantity will suffice to fer
ment and render soluble the materials of a
compost heap, which will make a hundred
loads—and the quality of the fertilizer thus
formed will actually be richer than the
barnyard manure alone ; because it will
enhance all the constituents that the plant
requires in order to stimulate to a vigorous
growth. A mere glance at the variety of
articles which may be formed into a com
post heap will prove this readily. What
can be richer in nitrogen, for instance, than
the blood that may be had at slaughter
houses, or the offal of animals ? What can
be richer in phosphates than the articles al
ready nnutioncd.and to which we may add,
spoilt lisli of all kinds ? Besides these,there
are wood ashes, the brine of salted meat,
soap suds, pond, river and sea mud ; the
scrapings of ditches, turf, woods-mould,sea
weed, moss, old mortar, and even earth
which Has been long under cover,inasmuch I
as it invariably contains a proportion of ni-!
tie.
Here, then, we have a supply of mater
ials.all of which contain enriching substan
ces, and when fermented with the manure
in the proportion of about one-third of the
latter to two-thirds of the former,will prove
of vast service to any soil to wliicn such a
compost nray be applied.
But even in the matter of barnyard ma
nure we have heretofore been both slovenly
and wasteful. We have exposed the heaps
to washing rains and drying suns, audi but
too frequently, we permit its volatile and
liquid products—the very essence of tiie
manure, if we may so C ; t || jj.—1 0 escape in

The Preservation of Timber.
Every farmer has always lamented the
fact that a great part of his labor is neces
sarily given to keeping his fences from di
lapidation. It is this unprofitable work
that makes agriculture a less lucrative pur
suit than other occupations. - Posts and
rails decay almost as fast as the profits of
the farmer will permit their renewal. Ev
erv five or six years a rail-fence must be
thrown down and re-set, that the change of
the crossing may make them last longer.—
Yet there has never been a series of expe
riments carefully and extensively made to
determine the best modes of preserving tim
ber by the time and manner of their cut
ting, or by applications to protect posts and
exposed timbers from decay. One of the
most useful duties of our agricultural col
leges will be iu making these experiments.
There is great difficulty in determining
the precise results of experiments made on
the durability of timber. There is much
difference iu individual trees standing near
each other, and of the same kind. There
is still greater difference in trees grown on
poor ridges and in rich bottom lands. But
still,experiments could determine the value
of different modes of preparing the timber
for special purposes.
Every farmer knows how quickly the sap
wood rots. Sap-wood is gradually changed
to heart-wood by the force of pressure and
of growth. The outer layers seems to press
upon the interior ones, causing them to
contract by lessening the size of the pores.
These pores, too, are gradually closed by
cell-growth. The wood is more solid, and
less of air can penetrate them. The sap al
most causes to circulate in theiu. But iu
the sap-wood this circulation is undiminish
ed. Iu the spring when the sap, then al
most nothing but water, ascends,it is lluid ;
but having been acted upon in the leaf,
which absorbs carbonic acid, and exhales
the water of the sap,it descends thicker,and
is retained in the cells or pores, forming
cell or wood growth.
By stripping the bark in the spring the
sap, in its ascent, is exhaled off flows from
the pores, and no elaborated or descending
sap is formed. Now, this deposit of the de
scending sap appears to have a great affin
ity for oxygen, which exis s in the air, and
is that part of it which destroys ail things
that are of vegetable or animal growth af
ter death. Timber that is stripped of its
bark, having but little of this downward
sap,the wood seasons to complete hardness,
and is not destrowed by the oxygen, be
cause it is not taken up by an absorbent,
such as the descending sap appears to be.
It is well known that wood always under
water never rots, because the air is exclu
ded from it ; and posts rot most rapidly at
the surface of the ground, where the air
penetrates into the posts, arid is aided by
moisture, which hastens decomposition. To
fill up the pores of the wood with a sub
stance autagonistical to the oxygen of the
atmosphere, and which will not dissolve in
water readily, must be preservative. A
substance having these properties, and
which will solidify or harden the wood it
self, is best of all others. Pyroligneous tie
id—an acid procured by the distillation of
wood—gas tar, aud other substances are
used, but we know of no series of experi
ments having been made to determine their
relative value,and of the manner and times
of their application.— Agricultural Ilcpor I.
Making a Poor Farm Rich.
Home twenty-five or thirty years ago, I
bought a farm containing about one hun
dred and twenty acres of land. It had been
managed badly for many years preceding
the sale of it. Fence rows,where hundreds
of loads of stone had been hauled off the
adjacent fields, were from ten to twenty
fact wide, and were filled with cedars,cher
ry trees, alders, sassafras, briars, rotten
rails, &c. Gutters were washed in various
places, exposing a stony, barren soil, that
looked like anything else than desirable
farm land. An old farmer, on the day of
sale, remarked, in reference to the gul'eys
in the fields,that it mattered but little if all
such land was washed away. The build
ings were old and dilapidated and needed
immediated ret dor them at ail
comfortable for a manor beast. This prop
erty, however had two redeeming traits ;
it was well wooded and well watered.
As was the farm so was the farmer— poor.
To better this state of tilings was the aim
of the writer, which could not be accom
plished without much hard work. This
had to be done, and lie had to do it. Wood
had to be cut and hauled to the kiln ; lime
to be burned, hauled and spread ; fence
rows cleaned out, fences made, Ac. I put
one thousand bushels of limo on two teu
acre fields, in the fall, before possession
was given. 'llieso fields were plowed in
the following spring, and put in with corn,
which yielded, when husked, not over fifty
bushels of sound corn altogether. From
one of them, however, I got one hundred
bushels ol buckwheat, having sown some
seed among the sparse and puny-looking
stalks ol corn about the middle of July.
Lite next season both fields were put in
with oats,averaging forty bushels per acre.
1 sowed clovei and timothy on the oats,and
rolled them all in togethei Tire season
was favorable ; and seed took well. I
mowed these fiel Is two summers iu succes
sion, and had a very good crop of hay. I
then put five hundred bushels of lime on
one of the fields, and in the spring planted
it with corn, which yielded ine four hun
dred bushels,without theoflal. Yo manure
whatever was used for the crop in addition
to the lime, excepting the c .rn was plas
tered in the hill. Oats, wheat, (manuied
from the barnyard,) and two crops of grass
followed. The ground was then limed again
as before, and 1 gathered the ensuing sea
son sixty bushels of corn per acre. The
other fields on the farm have been worked
a . this, with about the same results, excep
ting the corn, which 1 think has not been
equaled since. There were two acres of
wheat on the place when I bought it, as all
the manure made would not cover a greater
extent than this ; alter si tlieioiit was taken
out for a potato patch and garden. Two
horses and three cows constituted about all
the stock. Xow there are five horses and
upwards of twenty head of cattle kept. The
manure they make is sufficient for twenty
acres of ground annually. By the increas
ed productions of my farm, I have been en
abled to pay my debts,erect new buildings,
and to give my children a good sound edu
cation.
So much for lime ; without this fertilizer |
1 could not have lived. 1 have never sold
more than three or lour loads of hay, nor
bought more than three or four loads of
manure Several times the wheat crop has
yielded thirty bushels per acre. 1 paid
per acre for my farm,and have refused $1 IU.
I have written this to show that poor
land may be made good with lime, and the ,
increased amount of manure obtained as ;
the consequence of liberal application. -
Two good horses and a yoke of oxen were .
all the working stock used on this farm for
several years, fanners will do well
to remember that oxen will do as much work
us horses, eat less grain, require less ex
pensive harness, can be geared in half the j
time, can be managed more safely by boys,
and in fine are preferable in very" many i
ways. <h rmantomi Telegraph.
