When' hay/a (9^i*aitr nffepleoiy andolieap,-
•we 1 I e l a * |
beat the peculiar. vslue of tbelrmutritlve
qualities, the hay into ’the rack, 1
add pouf the grainin'o the pjoverider oikh,
without gliovaod' without caring about ns
peculiar properties, or the comparative nu
tritive qualities of the several grain* used.
When (he hay crop is cut abort, and gram
cornea at a high price in tbb market, then we
beam to enquire into the economy of thia or
that kind of feed. This enquiry, wo grieve
to say, is moat generally prompted more to
save our copperathan Irom any inherent de
sire to enlighten oursetvee in the true philo
sophical qualities of the feed we use. We
care- more for our pockets than for our brains,
in this particular. ‘
A common observer, who feeds farm.slock
any-length of lime, will learn that almost
every kind of food given them will have-pe
culiar results. Take the different kinds of
hoy, for instance that composed of the cores
or sedge grasses—brakes nod polypods, from
our bo* /and*—-given to caille will afford but
Htlle fastening materials or muscular matter,
and will render them costive or sluggish.—
Sheep, however, will live on it belter and
longer than horned cattle. Now feed with
the joint rush, or gunhrighl, as ills called,
(the Ikpnvtuni of hot - rust,) which my and
gi’iierullv dons, grow in the lower part of the
same bug, but where the water stands in a
cheat, stagnant condition, anti you see almost
the reverse result. The muscles begin to fill
out, the coat becomes more lively and glossy,
the bowels become lax and the milk of the
cows increase in quantity.
Now, there is no particular appearance of
either to the eye, that will lead us to judge
what would be the peculiar effects of each
when fed to cattle. These effects are only
ascertained by the experiment of Feeding out,
and why or wherefore such results lake place
can only lie certainly determined by careful
chemical analysis.
We see some such difference in the results
of feeding cattle and horses with the different
kinds of upland hay. That made from clo
ver has a different effect upon cuttle and hor
ses from that made from some of the ordi
nary grasses, such as red top, herdsgraas,
&o. The clover, being coarser and more
bulky, distends the stomach more fully, and
has a more relaxing action on the bowels than
that mode from berdsgrass, red top, &c.,
pound for pound. ,«•
Hay that contains “white weed,” or “ox
eye daisy,” as some call it, has some such
action as clover. Now, farmers have become
acquainted with the facts, without knowing
exactly the why or the wherefore. If this
“why and wherefore” were truly known, a
good deal of advantage might oftentimes be
obtained from the knowledge.
For instance, if circumstances compelled
yon to feed your cattle on bog bay, and you
knew exactly what it lacked in order to en
able it to briog about, the same results that
feeding on berdsgrass or clover bay would,
you might probably add some other material
by which the desired result would be ob
tained.
This species of knowledge is well illustra
ted by using the different |k'mds of grain for
provender. An observing farmer found that
when he fed his horse on qats alone, his mus
cles seemed to swell out, and he was lively
and strong. When he fed him on corn only,
>Re found that be became mote covered with
fat, which, filling in around the muscles,
caused him to look more plump and round —
that he was strong, but more dull, or less
lively.
The chemist, by hi? J analysis of these two
grains, finds that there is most carbonoceous
or fat forming material in the corn, and most
nitrogenous or muscle, or in other words,
flesh making material in oats. The farmer,
learning this fact, says—-“I can make.it right
now," and "so had bis corn and oats ground
together, and fed the mixture to his horse.—
By so doing, he became noted for having
handsome horses. They were muscular, fat,
strong and lively.
A true knowledge of these things makes
the leeding of cattle not only pleasant but
satisfactory to the reasoning power, but also
profitable in a pecuniary point of view.—
Maine Farmer.
Facta About Cattle,
It is a fact that all domestic animals can he
improved in size and value. One hundred
and fifty years ago the average weight of
cat tie at the Smithfidd Market was not over
dIU pounds and that of the sheep 28 pounds.
Now, the average weight of the (ormer is
our ruu Its, and of the latter 80 pounds.
The- ■ average weight of cattle, properly
termed beeves, in the New York market, is
about 700 pounds, and sheep 50 pounds.
- The average live weight of lint heaviest
drove of beeves of 100 in number ever
brought to ibis market, was 2,087 pounds,
weighed from dry feeding, in Illinois, last
spring.
The mode of selling cattle in New York,
i» at so much per pound for the estima
ted weight of meat contained in the four
quarters, ' The estimation is made upon the
live weight of cattle as followfs:
A drover in buyinga lot of grass fet), com
mon, nock in Illinois, should never calculate
to get an estimate of over one-half here of
the live .weight there. Thai is, if a drove
averages 12 cwt., they will make 0 cwt„ o
meat each; t
Medium beeves may be estimated at 54 or
55 pounds per owt. Good beeves at 66 or
57 pounds. Extra good, large add fat, from
68 to 62 pounds per cwt. '
' la the Boston market, is generally esiima
ted upon "five quarter.” (but is the product of
meat (bt and skin. There the cattle are gen
erally weighed, and the product estimated up
on pa average, 94 pounds per cwt. In New
York not on? bullock in ten thousand goes

ness, or disarrangement of tho functions produced
by setfabuso or excessive venery, I do not know his
superior in the profession. 1 have been acquainted

It ts Iree from all objectionable matter, and no par
ent, however fastidious, can object to placing it in
the hands of his sons. - The author has devoted ma

A Presbyterian clergyman in Ohio, writing of

Upon thousands of our youth, by evil example and
influence of the passions, have been led into the
habit of selfpoliulion without realizing the sin and
fearful consequences upon themselves and posterity
The constitutions of thousands who are raising fam

they do not know the cause or core. Anything

this wide spread source of human wretchedcess,
