the returned of the pupie from the.neigh

son why .00,000 ants in the same nest,

stranger is slain at the lirst reproach. His

noinema with which Vre are most familiar.
At a 1,‘,01 temperature all solids emit
light, the powei , of the light depending
upon the degree of beat. The intensity
. of the light, however, increases in greater
proportion than the heat. Platinum, for
instance, is found to emit forty times. as
mooch light at . 2,001.1 degrees as at 1,900
degrees. A, remarkable fact. in this con
nection is that nearly 4 . 11 solids begin to.
glow at about the same temperature.

commences has been variously stated, the

tongue cleave-to the roof of his month.
The Helena (Montana) Herald says that
a farmer 'near that city hada forty-pourid
squash which, when it only weighed ten
pounds, was 'severed from the vine by a
misstep. The man who carelessly stepped
.on the vine , wanted to make amends, and
,said ” I will grow and mature it if you
will furnish the milk." The tarmer, who
had been saving that squash for the prize'
at the agricultural fair, was much disap
pointed and thought his hired man was
joking, but told him at length to go
ahead.' The squash, with the stern and a
few inches of the vine left intact, was
taken to the house and depoled in a
garret-room where it could get a sunbath
part of,each - day. The stem was wound
with severallayers of cotton cloth, and
this was subinerged in a dish of now milk
rap:ming and evOng. It was at first giv
etch pint each time, then a quart. In
seven weeks the squash gained 30 pounds,
weighing forty when taken to the fair,
when .it was cut open before a large
crowd. Divided carefully in the middle,
the top-half was rirnoved, diselbsing a
globe of beautiful ¶golden-hued butter,
with plumped-filled seeds peeping' out
from all sides of the luscious-looking ball.
This weight of the butter • was estimated
by many of the best judges at ten pounds.
The citizens gave the farmer a special
premium of $2O, and we suppose he of
course " divided up , " with the hired man.

One of the oldest breeders of thor-'
oughbred stock in the. United States
urged upon us the.necessity of keep
ing before our readers the necessity
'obreedingnitriProving annually
every head of stockkWt ou the farm;
This urwhat we have attempted to do
for years.. Be the stoelovhat it may,
horses, cattle, sheep, ppultry, or
indeed, anything 'else, nothing short
of a thoroughbred sire can be used to
advantage. Our . friend denounced in
unmeasured terms the-lax habit; be
coming too common, of using grade
or homebred 'sires, and a'mument's
consideration r will -show,. any man 'of
experience:the iripropriety of - such a
course. Take cur native cows as an
instancel when -bred to allioroUgh
bred hull they are tnoi'e than apt to
produee a well favored cross, and be-1
cause it is. so, if a male, the owner is
so pleased with hint, as in many in
stanees to make use of hint in future . 1
years to top his herd.- low it must
be patent that bred, to the same class
of animal as his dani, his, get instead'
of being half blood Will be, only one
quarter, and unlessthe circumstances
and surroundingslare very favorable,
the inferior blood be pretty sure
to show itself in even larger propor
tions. But-if, on the contrary, a thor
oughbred sire . only is used the tend
ency will be upward eVery year and
the herd surly improving. We see
no reason willy the blood of the thor
oughbred scrub 'should not be as po=
ten; as that of improved stock, and
we verily believe that the ingrained . '
cussedness of: the ' one , is ti 4, apt to
crop out as the•wll proportioned de
velopment of the - other.. It Would be
the height of folly, therefore to use
ailything, short of .a.full,blooLd sire
ori any stock on the farm,
Than the
COOKED Ott UNCOOK ED FOOD : —Prof.
Farrington of the Maine State Agri
culturareolfeg, has concluded a ser-..
its of experiMents which were begun
nine years ago by• Samuel Johnson,
then farm superintendent, for the pur
pose of ascertaining the relative-feed- I
iv, Value c.)l' cooked and uncooked
meal for swine. The trials. have been
carried on seven months each
the greatest care being taken tliat no
food should be wasued, but thatsthe
pigs should be fully supplied. The
raw meal was simply mixed 'with
coil water and f..-d inunediately, ex
.cept in very tt,,bl Weather, when it
was given - slightly warm. :The
solt is wholly in favor of,the un rook
ed meal for feeding. The-Professor .
says that the exls:rinients
.prove!
that the labor and fuel - required for,
cooking food is. nfore than thrown:
away. This accords with opinionsi
we have hell for a ;Ion: , inne r and
our practice has Leen eonlinto

LARGE ANDIALS.—The desire for
larg,&animals is not always judicious.
Witt' cows it is question - able if the
largest arc ttni , : - iest., when the cost.of
feeding is considered. 'There arc eases.
in which a ilairynnins. finey for large,
showy animals may be justified, and
it may be granted that a stable well
filled with large, showy Dutch or
ShorthoTrn COWS is a very pleasiniy, ex.

up the cost of the product it may 'be

cows is not always bqt. either for
beauty or profit to the liWner.
SMALL' FaulTP. , .—We have urged
upon our farmers the plan of setting
out all the varieties of small fruits;
and'we again beg lea:ve to impress- it
upon one and all who' own even an
of soil'to deVote at least the
fence corner to this delightful :addi.
Lion to n family's happiness, comfort'
and health. Nor is.this all, feirwhile
the farmer sleeps the- fruit - gr*, and
nothing is more prbtitable than the
.fruits, provided good selections are
made. Care should he. taken to make
good selections, however, as tnitling
fruit does . not 'ray. Carry, good,
nice. clean fruit tq market, and
i; will sell at remunerative prices.
The time is now at hand to set out
Vines and trees. Set thbin out
