Indiana, thus sums Up the arguments on this mneh-debated question : Some hold for the ox, but still more for the harse. Let us examine the relative merits of each. A pair of good larm-norses will cost RiJOO; harness, dwelling house and farm buildings, it was therefore a point to get as near the centre of his plot of ground as possible. Of course the contour of the surface, contiguity to water, and other conveni ences had to have a voice in the deci sion, but if these voted for the middle of the tract it wns all the more comfort ing. Every field required attention, and the centre of the whole sprtco econ omized time and space in getting from part to part of the whole concern. But times have changed. Agricultu ral intelligence has advanced more than would have been dreamed of. a genera tion ago. The newspaper is now as much a part of farm life as it is of citv life, nnd we live as much for mental pleasure as for the hogs and cattle, and potatoes and corn which our broad acres vield. Social life ns well ns material wealth is an agricultural want, nnd must be kept in view in locnting buildings ns much so as nnv of. the mere conveni ences before nnmed. Another point is that there is not now the same necessity for ns much manual labor on the farm as formerly. Machinery jiow does most of the labor, and the mere saving of manual lnbor hns already been in anion sure accomplished. Altogether it is not a matter of serious consequence on what part of the ground the buildings are located. This gives ns much more ehanee to entertain the social element in farm life, and there is no reason why in lo cating buildings the spot chosen might not be especially in view to its conti guity to a neighborhood as not. A dozen farms of a hundred acres or more each could be so nrranged that the dwellings might nil be within gunshot of one another. Even though there were some disnd vantages from the labor point of view, the nearness to eooiety would generally compensate it. Farmers, ns well as other classes, have learned that there are mony ways in which they can co operate to mutual advantage, nnd this may just as well be borne in mind when arranging the farm buildings as not. ucrmaMQwn ji'drgraph. liuttcr nt a Fair. Aii old gentleman who has probably been present nt every exhibition of the New York State Agricultural Society during the post thirty years, remarked that there never was so full a show of dairy products ns at the last fair. It is largely owing to special care in putting up the packages, and presenting them in attractive form that many dairymen vise above mediocrity nnd strike the tide that bears them on to fortune. Large stocks of excellent butter come to market in such greasy guise that its qualities go unappreciated, while that which is perhaps no better, but put up ?oko and chain $10 more, making $160 or the oxen. Now let us see what it will cost for keeping each ton years, or the working life of each. To com mence, we said, the horses cost 83J0 ; the interest on the money at six per cent., for ten years, would be $200 ; the shoeing would cost $15 a year, or $1G0 for ten years ; for feed it will take $150 a yearf or $1,500 for ten years, amounting in all, for the first cost, interest, shoeing, nnd feed of horses, to $'2,045. But let us examine the other side of the question, or the oxen : One hundred and sixty dollars for the first cost ol the oxen : interest at six per cent., for ten years, amounts to tho feed will cost two thirds ns much as tho feed of tho horses, which will bo $1,000. For tho oxen, the whole amount of the cost.interest, nnd foed, is 9,1,250, agninst $'2,0(5 on tho horses' aide. Be sides this the oxen are constantly in creasing in value, until they nre twelve years of nge. On the other hand the lorses are decreasing from the time they are eight years old. A yoke of oxen at twelve years old are worth two-thirds of their working Value for I eef ; but what is a pair of stiff, worn-out, and broken-down horses worth ? Scarcely anything, except for the manure heap, Suppose that ouo of your horses was to got his leg broken, the only thing that could bo done would be to shoot him, or pay a large bill for his cure. But let old " .bright get ins leg oronen, or suffer any injury that would make him unfit for use, and you can readily get the market price for him for beef just the same as if he was all right. Why is it then that there is so small an amount of ox labor tised as compared with that of horses? It is simply this We do not know how to drive them, Give a hired hand a yoke of cattle to work,- and in less than a week he will have his lungs nearly exhausted by velwincr. sauallmsr. and whooping, which there was no neeu oi. it oniy tends to worry them, and get them scared.

They will plow as many acres of land, and as well, haul A Day at Home. Once in a while there is a day in Dan- bury when a man is out of work, and he stays at home. Alter oreaKiast is eaten and tho dishes are removed, he pulls out the family drawer, and dumps tho contents on the table, to look for a pa per of suddenly acquired importance. Having got a chair which has lost a leg, and for that reason has been set aside where nobody will be apt to get into trouble with it, he drops into it, and it immediately comes apart, and deposits him under the table. He jumps to his foct at once, nnd kicks the chair into the hall-way to the imminent danger of his wire, aud tho woman who lives in tho other pnrt of tho house, both of whom being under the impression that one of the children had fallen from the mnntel-piece, and broken its back, have started to tho rescue. He immediately nks his wife what kind of an idiot she is to leave a broken chair where anyone can sit down on it and jeopardize life and limb, nnd sarcastically inquires if she wanted to kill him, or merely crip pie him for life, and scouts with scorn indescribablo the intimation that the elinir wns placed where no sane party would ever think of looking lor one, After that he eots a new chair which he is confident will throw him and hurt him, and soys so, and pores over the tinner A?ain. Tretty soon he is attended by one of the children who is making herculean efforts to scale one of the table legs with a view to Retting on top to see what is going on.

But the child knows that its mother doesn't want him, and so does he, nnd being at a loss to explain why, he falls to work at the papers nffain. In a little while, one very chub r . , by arm is thrown on top oi tne taoie, and the eves have reached the level, and are taking in the wonders of the display. There is another move up, then a sudden weakness m tne legs uiut are tightly hugged to the. table's logs, then a desperate but hopeless clutch at the papers for safety, and the little head disappears with lightning volooity, and then an omnious bump, and then a as many tons of manure and grain, and haul larger logs and more oi tnem Oxen are hardier than horses, or they could not stand the treatment they re ceive.

There are crowds of fastid ious and money-making denizens of your metropolis ; also of tho Modern Athens, and of most other cities, in fact, and of smaller towns as well, who would cheerfully pay at least 25 cents more a pound for butter that came in exactly the shape and condition to be presenta ble on their breakfast tables. Mr. Beekman and Mr. Hand, who had but ter nt the fair aud whose butter sells for 65 cents a pound, summer and win ter, are extremely particular not to send any which fails to reach their high standard, not merely in respect to qual ity, but nlso in point of appearance. The fact that several competitors have sacrificed a golden opportunity by being neglectful in this matter of looks, is evidence that there is abnndant need of further education on thin score, and the foregoing preachment is made for their benefit, as much as for that of the increasing large class of city consumers who want good butter, are willling to pay a high price for it, but who refuse n wnen it comes, like Hamlet s ghost, in quesiionaDie shape. How to Clean Plrtnre. A new process of cleaning pictures has recently been discovered. The great difficulty has always been to get off the old varnish, which, by length of time has become almost incorporated with the color underneath, so that any method employed to remove the upper surface is pretty certain to carry off with ture-dealers use corrosive substances, which make tho matter worse. An in genions system has been discovered at Amsterdam, which consists in simply spreading a coating of copaiba balsam on the oil painting and then keeping ) face downward over a dish of the same size filled with cold alcohol at an alti tude of about three fact. The vapors of the liquid impart ' to the copaiba a degree of semi-fluidity, in which state it easily amalgamates with the varnish it covers. Thus the original brilliancy and transparency are regained without injuring the oil painting; and when the picture is hung up in its place again, two or three days after, it looks as if it had been varnished afresh. The in ventors have given the public the bene fit of their discovery. The process has the merit of being a short one as com pared with the old methods. Balky Morse. Balking is a serious defect in a very useful animal, and it cannot be over - como by whipping or swearing at him. His brain does not seem capable of en tertaining but one thought at a time, and the stubborn resolve not to move seems to bo uppermost in it. There fore you must endeavor to give him a new subject of thought, and by so doing change the direction of his brain. The simple trick of putting a small quantity of earth or gravel, taken from the road-side, upon his tongue, will suffice to turn his attention to the new kind of fodder offered him. Now cluck to him, but don't strike him, and al most before he is aware of it hois walk ing along, and soon trots as fast as is needful. This is a remedy much in use on tho Western plains, where teaming is employed to perform a vast amount of labor, and balky horses are quite a common trouble, have seen something thnt would not stand the heat much better than cattle. If vou will let cattle rest during the heat of the day, bring them out in the morning, when it is cool, work them until 10 o'clock, and let them rest until the heat goes off, and take them out again say at 2 o'clock, they will do good work. Another objection against oxen is the slowness with which they move. Some cattle are unusually slow, it is true, but this is owing to the way they were broken. They are made to carry a heavy yoke, (fit only for old and full- grown oxen,) and hitched up to a heavy cart when too young by boys that know nothing about breaking oxen, uattie that are properly broken and made to step quick, are nearly as fast as horses, Digestion and Paradise.

What a bless ing is digestion! xo digest! uo you A butcher at Warrenton, Va., became enraged at his horse and tied the animal np and was sawing him in two when parties interfered, but it was too late to save tne horse. know what it means ? It is to have the sun always shining and the shade al ways ready for you. It is to be met with smiles, and to be greeted with kisses. It is to hear sweet sounds, to sleep with sweet dreams, to be touched ever with soft, cool hands. It is to be in Paradise. Adam and Eve were in Paradise. Why ? Their digestion was gcod. Ah ! then they took liberties ate bad fruit things they could not digest, They what we call ruined their constitu Hons, destroyed tneir gasino juicob and then they were expelled from Para dise by an angel with the flaming sword. The angel with the flaming sword, which turned two ways, was in digestion. There came a great indiges tion upon the earth because the cooks wero bad, and they called it a deluge. Ah!

In tho rare case of witnessing an in dividual whose clothing w on fire, it is well to know just how to act. that by promptitude and presence of mind the sufferer may be saved from a terrible death. Make no outcry, if you can avoid it. but seize a blanket or any woolen fabric if none is at hand take any woolen material hold tho oorners as far apart as you can, stretch them out higher than your head, and running boldly to the person, mane a motion oi clasping in tho arms, mostly about tho shoulders. This instantly smowers uio fire and saves tho face. The next in stant throw tho person on the floor. This is an additional safety to the face and breath, and any remnant of flame can be put out more quickly. The next instant immerse tne Durnt part in com water, and all pain will cease at once with the rapidity of lightning. Next iret some flour, remove from the water. and cover the burnt parts with an inch in thickness of flour; if possible, put the patient in bed, and do all that is nossible to soothe until tho physician arrives. Let the flour remain until it falls off itself, when a beautiful new skin can be found. Unless the burns urn deep, no other applications are needed. Tho dry flour lor burns is tho most reliable remedy ever proposed.and the information ought to be imparted to all. . A Hat's Lore for a Child. There is in Whitehall village, says the Times, a family wlfo have a little daughter, two years and a half old, who has formed a singular attachment for a rat. Everyday this little one goes into the wood-shed adjoining the house, where a large, venerable-looking rat makes its appearance, when the inno cent looking child proceeds to feed it from her chubby hand. The parents have caught their little one feeding its protege several times of late, yet on the approach or any other than the lit tle girl the rat scampers off to its hole. Several efforts have been made by the child's parents to dispatch the singular companion of their darling, for it was feared that the child may get bitten oy it. Last Sunday the rat showed its affection and guardian care of the little one's comfort, as the following will show: The child's mother put it to sleep in the cradle in the kitchen, going to another toom in the house, leaving the sleeping child alone. She was gone some time. On her return she cast her eye at the child, when she was surprised to observe the rat standing perched upon the top of the cradle, , ii.. i i ii moving lis lau over mo nine Bieeper. The mother, wishing ts see what the varmint was np to, stood and watch ed its movements, deeping through the door, which was only partly opened. She observed a number of flies above the child's face, when two lit on the lit tle one, whereat the kind rat whisked them off with its tail. Wishing to make sure, the lady quietly called her hus band, and the two stood watching the proceedings for at least ten minutes. Every time a fly dared to alight on the little one's face that old rat's friendly tail would brush it away, like the guar dian angel hovering about us, who, we believe, is constantly brushing away dangers that threaten us poor mortals. It was thought safe by the child's pa rents to leave the child in charge of its singular nurse, and for one hour the lit tle one slept. When it awoke its mo ther went to take it up, and the rat jumped from the cradle and sped away through the half-opened door to the wood-shed. Since that time the child has been put in the kitchen to ascer tain if the experiment would bo repeat ed. Each time, when left alone, with the shed door partially open, the rat would enter and take up its position over tho top of tho cradle, watching the little sleeper, and brushing away the flies who dared to disturb its preci ous charge ware ol tuis, However ; lut m in iuc habit of their life and calling to get every penny you have, and abuse you because you have no more.

Handling the Reins. The Modoc Idea of the Creation. Jonquin Miller, in his "Life Among the Moilocs," gives the following idea of the creation of the world as that en tertained by the Modocs : " The Great Spirit made Mount Shasta first of all. He pushed down snow and ice from the sky through a hole which he made in the blue heavens by turning a stone round and round, till he made this great mountain ; then he stepped out of the clouds on to the mountain top, and descended and planted the trees all around by putting lus ringer on tne ground. The sun melted the snow, and the water ran down ana nurtured tne trees and made the rivers. After that he made the fish for the rivers out of the small end of his staff. He made the birds by blowing some leaves which he took up from the ground among the trees. After that he made the beasts out of the remainder of his stick, but he made the grizzly bear out of the big end, and made him master over all others. Having done that, the Ureal Spirit converted Mount Shasta into a wigwam, and its volcanio eruptions are the outcome ol the nre that he ugnts in the centre of the mountain. Tii'e de velopment of . man was a later occur rence. The daughter el the ureut Spirit ventured too far, got astray, and fell into the power of the erizzly bears, and she was forced to marry one of them, and the red men were the fruit of the marriage. These red men were taken under the protection ot the Great Spirit ; but the grizzlies were punished by being compelled to walk on four feet, whereas before they had walked on two. To this day the grizzly bear is sever slain by the red men, who recognize him as a tort of kinsman." Most drivers overdrive, says Mr. Mur ray, in his book called " The Perfect Horse." They attempt too much, and, in so doing, distract or hamper the horse. Now and then you find a horse with such a vicious gait that his speed is got from him by the most artificial pro'cess; but such horses are fortunate ly rare, and hence the style of manage ment required cannot become general. The true way is to let the horse drive himself, the driver doing little but di recting him, and giving him that confi dence which a horse alone gets .in Him self when he feels thnt a guide and friend is bnek of him. The most vicious and inexcusable style of driving is thnt which so many drivers adopt, viz., wrapping the lines around either hand, and pulling the horse backwards with all their might and main, so that the horse, in point of fact, pulls the weight back of him with his mouth, and not with his breastand shoulders. This they do under the im pression that such a dead pull is needed in order to steady " the horse. This method of driving ! regard as radically and superlntivelv wrong. It would tax the ingenuity of a hundred fools to in vent a worse one. The fact is, with rare exceptions, there 6hould never be any pull upon the horse at all. A steady pressure is allowable, probably advisa ble; but anything beyond this has no justification in nature or reason; for nature suggests ne utmost, possime freedom of action and head, body and limbs, in order that the animal may at tain the higheet rate of speed; and reason certainly forbids the supposition that by bits, and not by the breast col lar, the hoise is to draw the weight at tached to it. In speeding my horses, I very seldom grasp the lines with. both hands when the road is straight and free from ob structions. The lines are rarely stead ily taut, but held irl fiasy pliancy, and used chiefly to shift the bit in the ani mal's mouth, and by this motion com municate courage and confidence to him. I find that, by this method, my horses break less, and go much faster, than when driwn by men who put the old-fashioned steady pull upon theia. such ai C'ouff'is, Colds, Asthma, Bronchitis, Consumption.

Ladies traveling through Canada by rail are often greatly annoyed by hav ing their luggage nnnecessarilj nearch ed, but one of the officials recently got his deserts. It happened that a Yankee school-teacher, on her way from Kansas to Vermont, passed through the Domin ion, with a trunk packed to bursting with nothing contrabantl. Wlien tne officer demanded her key she begged him not to open it, assuring him thut it had come through from Kansas, con tained simply clothes and books, and was so full tuat it wouia ue very irouoie some to repack it. But he sternly de manded the key, and mal'iiously pulled everything out to the very bottom ; then finding her assertions true he returned the key and advised her to "hurry up and get the traps back," as the train would soon move. " AVhat is that to me?" said the quick-witted woman ; " I have a check for that trunk, and hold the Grand Trunk Railway re- sponsible for its safe delivery. I will not Jake the key, and you may do as you please with the trunk." Report says that official was very weary and red in the face and rather profane ere he finished packing that trunk.
