- What Vejetablco are best for Stask.
Dr. Djwov is a careful farmer. lie watches
carefully the effect of his own methods of cul
tivation, and the value of h crops, and tries
to improve every roar by his own experience.
JTa cannot fail to be emulous of improvement,
for he is a constant and interested reader of
the Grani'e Farmer, and some other agricul
tural papers. A few observations of Mr. D.,
on the business of the farm, shewed so much
exact and valuable knowledge, that he have
not been sztis5.-.I without longer and more
minute inquiries on various matters, of which
the following is one:
Speaking of raising vegetables for stock,
Mr. Dewey took ns into Lis cellar, where was
heaped up nearly 200 b;:sheLs of beets, the
large kiud tor stock, called the Mangel IVvri
zd. and cct fjr ofF an ample store of turnips,
carrots, potatoes, &c. The beet yields boun
tifully, and after five years' experience, Mr.
D., is satisiid that the Zlangel Wurlzsl is by
Jar tae best vegetable to raise for stock. To
satisfy our cuiioMiy, lis allowed us to measure
tli-z groitn-1 wherj the beets were grovrn this
year, and ascertain the quantity produced.
The piece of grouud is about eight rvJ long
by five in width, containing almost one quar
ter of an acre. The rows run across and were
al'out two and a hiti' feet apart, livery other
row was carrot? nearly all the way, there beit;g
30 rows of beets and 21 rows cf carrots in ail.
Every fo'ir rows of beets filled a 23 bushel
cart, giving in all seven loads, good 175 bush
els to the quarter acre, (or 700 bushels per
sere.) Besides, the 2i rows of carrots gave
1,733 lbs. or about 32 bv.s'iels to the same
quarter acre, (cr 123 bushels or three ar.d a
hilf tone cf carrots to the same acre.)
Mr. D., ha3 planted the same piece of land
with beets and alternate rows of turnips or
carrois for six years, and with constantly in
creasing success. The land is a clayey loam.
Saal io r-dJed where it is too heavy. It is
plowed as deep as can be conveniently done,
cay from eight to ten inches, aud barn-yard
manure put on and plowed in yearly, equal in
quantity to the crop taken of!". Mr. D., raises
his own seed and so.vs with a machine. He
procures different varieties of seed each year,
so as to select choice roota for the raising of
eeed for the following year to improve it.
As to feeding with roots, Mr. I., s;ys they
are exceedingly valuable to keep all kinds of
stock thriving, healthy ind productive. He
fec-d3 them to all his sioc'i in winter, and till
they go out to grass, ence or twice a week, as
the store will hold r.nt, giving about a peck at
a time to a cor or an ex. He never cuts
them except for theep, and then it is easily
done with a sharp shovel in a box for the pur
pose. Mr. D-, has tri.d and still uses turnips
slid carrots, and says lie would as soon have in
his stock five bushels of beets as four bushels
of carrots. The beets do much better for
sheep than turnips. The limbs are stronger
and more hardy. But the bect3 are opecially
vaiusLle f.r cows giving milk. They increase
the qnai.tity and excellence of the flavor more
than any i.thrr vegctaUie. Turnips always
give a bad flavor.
So much for the Mange! Wurlzel. It may
suggest to those who have nr-t turned their at
tention particularly to the subject, what ia one
of the secrets of raising choice stock, and al
so the great profit of cultivating well and man
uring highly a small piece of land. Granite

.'A correspondent of the Michigan Farmer
ys that Mr. James YTorthlngton, of Homer,
Mih!ga:i, had last spring a lot of wheat which
looked so bad that had not the field been seed
ed down to clover he should have ploughed it
up and sown it with spring crops. Instead of
doing to, he took a "sharp strap-harrow" and
with it "tore tiie land thoroughly to pieces."
He then rolled it down with a smooth heavy
roller. This covered the roots again and they
soon took hold and the wheat began to im
prove. The fieli contained some 40 acres,
and the res;?lt is that "every acre of it will
probably yield over 15 bushels and a majority
over 20 bushels" per acre.
' - Soap Versus Uoas and Crors.
. Mr. Levi D. Cowles, of this place, informs
us that he and bis brother, Chester Cowles,
have thoroughly tried the soaking of seed-corn
ia soap over night and rolling in plaster be
fore plaating, as a means of securing quick
ad vigorous growth, and as a remedy against
crows and hens; and he says that nothing
will give the corn abetter start, and that nei
ther hen nor crows will touch the corn when
ao treated. Te have often heard of this be

A GOOD STOEY. . .
A certain friend of ours, whose urbanity and
good-fellowship have won him a host of admi
rers, amused a company a few evenings since,
with tho following anecdote, which is too
good to be lost. S., a captain of a new and
elesrant packet on the Champlain Canal, was
spending, a few dr.vs, one winter, at Montreal,
and to "kill time" went into the theatre one
evening. During the performance the orches
tra began playing "God save the Queen." An
important, consequential looking personage
bustled around the theatre, touching one with
his cane and motioning to another, all the
time saying "hats otT. gentlemen, hats o3, our
national air."
Tresently he approached Captain S., who is
a diminutive specimen of the genni homo, and
called out to him, "hat off, sir, our national
air !" The Lilliputian captain refused, when
the very consequential busybody, with a sweep
of his cane knocked the Captain's hat upon
the floor. There was a grand rush, the flash
ing of a bright blade, and cries of a "fight, a
fight;" but the bystanders interfered, and the
parties stood, glaring at cacli other like wild
beasts. Captain S. remarked, "I shall know
vou next time we meet," and was hurried off
to prison. In the spring following, Captain
S. was iacing the deck of his beautiful packet,
as she lay at the wharf, at White-hall.
The "United States" had just arrived from
Rouse's Point, with passengers bound for Sar
atoga, New York, &c. The Captain eyed the
party sharply, and among them recognized
his Montreal acquaintance He proceeded at
once to the leader of the baud and ordered
him, as soon as the boat was in motion, to
strike up "Hail Columbia,5 and after that
"Yankee Doodle." The order was obeyed,
and the Captain appeared on deck swinging a
huge bludgeon. A9 soon as the first note of
Yankee Doodle had been sounded, he called
out, "hats off, gentlemen, hats off, our nation
al air!"
His Montreal friend did not heed him, when
round came the bludgeon and away went the
Montreal gentlemanrs hat into the Canal. The
gentleman was indignant got mad bluster
ed awfully but Captain S. was cool. "Per
haps you don?t know me ? I am the man whose
hat you knocked ofT, last wintei in Montreal.
Glad to sec you." "Quite right, Captain,
very right. I have a bottle of the genuine
below; come down and we will pais receipts."
Making the Be3t of It. A Yankee, went
out walking, in Virginia, at Wheeling, while
to himself a talking, experienced a feeling
strange, painful and al.irmin,' from his caput
to his knees; hesudlenly discovered he was
covered o'er with bees! They rested on his
eyelids, and perched upon his nose; they col
onized Iris peaked face, and swarmed upon his
clothes. They explored his swelling nostrils,
dove deep into his ears, they crawled up his
'trousers,'" and tilled his eves with tears!
Did he yell like a hyena? Did he holler like a
loon? Wa3 he scar't, and did he "cut and
run ?" or did the oritter swoon Ne'er a one.
lie wasn i scar t a mite; he never swoons or
hollers; but he hived them in a nail-keg tight,
and soid them for twu dollars!

that he was not to be sold by a "d d shang

temperance lecture, I am always rejoined

body. Verdigrese itself couldn't be more

Wasted. A fifer and a drummer to beat

fers for the light cf other days; a stone cutter
who can drill deep enough to blast the rock of
ages; a ring that will fit the finger of scorn; a
loose pully to work on the shaft of envy; and a
new cushion for the seat of government.
Slcclab Commodities. "I sell pepermints
on Sundays," remarked a good old lady who
kept a little candy shop, "because they carries
'em to church and eats 'em, and keeps them
awake to hear the sermon; but if you want
pickled limes you must come on week days.
They are secular commodities."
EF'It is a very solemn thing to be mar
ried," said Aunt Bethany. "Yes, but it's a
great deal more solemn not to be," said her
niece, a maid of twenty.
EAn individual was arrested the other
day in New York for endeavoring to pick a
