A recent number of the Heading Jour nal contains the following; interesting de ecription of a lare farm situated on the western border of Berks county, and the singular system of management pursued by its owner: . . , j -Near tho convergence of Berks, Lan caster and Lebanon counties, there is lo cated a farm, owned by a certain John Tcxter, so situated as to be but little fre quented, and which for years hfo been a topic of conversation in the neighboring country for miles around. For a long i time we had entertained a desire to visit this remarkable farm, in order to verify the numerous statements wc had heard, and, accordingly, on Tuesday wc proceed- teu -mimer. Alter quite a aiversinea j s'eigh ride of some five miles, the latter two ot which extends through epen fields j 0ur destination. Entering the. house wc were welcomed by the owner, Mr. Tex ter, and, after making the object of our visit known, we were led by him to his stables. Inquiring of him as to the pre sent extent of his stock, he replied that " he did not know himself," bat request ed us to take an inventory, which we give herewith. ; ', , In the first we noticed two work horses and seven fat beeves, while in the stall adjoining were two working horses and five three-year old colts. Several of the latter were magnificent creatures, one es pecially eliciting our admiration. In the rear of this last stall we . were shown a pen, about eight by ten feet in size, in which were crowded six yearling colts. Leavnig these stables we were taken to the barn, a substantial stone building, over one hundred feet long. In the first stable we found eight working horses, one of which, a 3Iorgan horse four years old, was a superior animal in every re spect. In the next stable there were seven cows, one heifer and nine calves. In the next were twenty two two-year old heifers and steers. In the next stable were thirty-six heifers and steers fourteen two-year olds ranged on one side, and twenty-two yearlings on the other. In the next stall were ten calves nine months old, and nine fat oxen four years old. The latter were in excellent condition! being well fattened, and would weighed from seven hundred to one thousand pounds apiece when killed and dressed. In the next stall were eleven cows, six calves and one sheep ; and in the next, two fine white mares. Leav'mg the barn we were Conducted to another separate stable, in which we found, huddled together and untied, eighteen colts two years old, of every color. We then proceeded to a yard adjoining the barn, and surrounded by a number of stacks and a row of sheds, in which were confined thirty-four steers and heif ers of various ages. These arc quartered in this enclosure the entire winter, hav ing do othcr.shelter save the sheds men tioned , . We were also shown four very fat hogs, intended for slaughtering, perched upon the backs of which were a . number of chickens, apparently well contented with thir warm roost. The remainder of his hogs, fifteen in number, are kept during winter in a field, half a mile distant from the barn, and having for shelter a pen constructed like, a collier's hut. In here they crowd together at uights, and man age to keep each other warm. The above comprises the whole stock, which adds up as follows: Horses, 14; colts, 40; cows, 17; beeves, 109; calves, 15; hogs, 10; sheep, 1 making a sum total of 215 head. These figures are less than the general average amount of stock, as we were told by Mr. Textcr that he had lately disposed of a number of horses, steers, etc., and has not yet commenced his usual spring pur chases. His average amount of stock may safely be estimated at three hundred head. He supplies himself, for future raising, with from forty five to fifty calves every spring, which he obtains from neighboring farmers. Although possess ing admirable facilities for raising sheep, he never keeps many, and happens at present to hare but one. All of his cat tic, as seen by us, appeared to be in ex cellent condition. ... ''.' "' , The- help provided for the supervision and care of so many animals seems to be very insufficient. ' While going through the stables we met a young girl engaged in feeding, and we were told that this girl ,had charge of one hundred head. She docs but little other work, and is oc cupied the greater part of the afternoon in completing her evening feeding. The farm appeared to be well supplied with hay, grain, etc., while adjoing the barn were a number of stacks, as follows : Fourteen of wheat, four of bay, and four of corn fodder. All these were much larger than ordinary stacks, two of tho hay stacks being at least sixty feet long. We were told by Mr.;Texter that he had threshed some . ten stacks of wheat, and that he had a number of other stacks at different places on his farm uul which can ouiy uc ouiaincu oy enooi ing them. Iu the summer ibey stray away for miles, and are often mistaken and shot by sportsmen for wild turkey.. Last fall fifteen were lost in this manner. . iir. lexter informed us that he owned 1,900 acres, of land, of which 1,500 acres lie pretty much in. one undivided tract j the remaining four hundred acres lie dis connected along the South Mountain. Not much more than one-fifth of this tract is farmed, , part of the remainder consisting of timber and sprout land, and the residue of extensive commons.' The fields are all verv Urn nA nnn nnu. J ure, usea ior pasturage in summer, is v .

Although the farm, from its high elevation, is rather difficult of ac-j cess, a trip thither will amply reward the visitor. " . . - A Good Rotation. The following rotation of crops, adopted by Peter Hodson of Venice, Cayuga Co., -i. j. ., unuuugu Miuuar 10 inai in use Dy seme other farmers, is so good a one for, a dead mule can't draw his cart, he na retaining or increasing the fertility of j tcrally turns eyes onto them still posscst land, that we think it worthy of being! uv vitalitv. I hone too se h r.Jnt presented to the consideration of such of our readers as may desire to make im provement in this particular. The soil on which this rotation is used, is a good medium loam, , neither very light nor of the heaviest or strongest character. First year Corn or sod.

A small crop of oats is raised only for home use. A free use of litter for the stabled cattle and horses, mixing all the materials uniformly to gether in heap?, enables him to manu facture about four hundred two horse loads of manure per annum from a farm of about 160 acres. This he usually ap plies for the benefit of the corn crop the year before it is plautcd, spreading it broadcast upon thc crass about mid sum- mer or earlier. .He finds no detriment from anyupposcd evaporation of the ma-j nure during the heat of summer! the grass grows with more vigor, and the so luble part of the manure becomes gradu ally diffused among the roots and through the soil.
