farm fentorit & §iitclieuJ Farmers, and Agricultural men generally are requested to contributed to this Department, as it is from their experience that we hope to gain sume thiing of interest for our readers. JS?* A farmer who always has sleek cattle, pursues this course : He feeds his stock their meal or roots early in the morn ing, without any hay, and turns them out about sunrise, and feeds hay either in the yard or at the adjoining stack—-putting them back in their stalls as early as four r. M , stormy or extreme cold weather ex cepted, whenjhev are kept honsed most of the time. SOAKING SEEDS.—The Chinese seldom tow a crop without having previously soak ed their seeds iu diluted manure, keeping them there even until they begin to sprout. They hold that this not only gives the plants au early and vigorous start, but pre serves the seeds from worms or birds. The practical resultß of Chinese agriculture are contempt. Would it not be well for us to use some safe steeps for our corn, squashes tuelions, etc., as a general use, and uot as an exception ? DESTROYING WORMS IN POTS.—The worms in the pots may be destroyed by stopping up the holes in the pots with corks and watering with lime water antil it stands on the surface. The lime water may re main an hour; then, on removing the cork, it will pass off. The lime water may be made pouring thirty gallons of water over ten pounds Stir well up, and allow the whole to stand two or three days; then employ the clean liquor. WATERED CIDER.—A party of men were surveying for a railroad, and of course they are entitled to the b#st there is along the line. At one houso they thought the proprietor was a little tardy in producing the cider. It came at last, and was tasted by one of party with great deliberation. "How much cider did you make this year?" he asked. "Fifteen barrels," wan the answer Another sip. "Well, if you'd had another apple you might have made another bar rel." CATTLE AND HOGS.—Beef cattle should be fed freely on pumpkins, boiled corn, and mixed cut feed. Don't feed ripe pumpkins to milch cows without first re moving the seeds, as they promote the se cretion of the kidneys au y'AHIB'IT STO7IJ?. The largest and most complete Drug Store in tunkhanjJock.
