SWEET ift the FftEM.Pr'P Simi)!
Sweet if, by toil he eani his bread:
Ile knows not half the care and drend
Which agitate the weak man's mind,
And make him watch and weep;
That casting sorrows t o the wind,
Sweet is the Farmer's sleep!
Refreshing are his dreams!
No tantalizing scenes of wealth -
Mock lihn: Possessed of ease and health,
Ile fears not murderers ; storms, nor litr;
The Weak man's nightly themes;
But innocence and peace inspire
His light and pleasant dreams.
And when the Cheerful morn,
The watchful cock proclaims aloud,
Light fly his slumbers, as a cloud,
Reflected by the noonday Sun, .
On wings of light is borne;.
No head-ache veils, in mantle dun,
The Farmer's happy morn.
• Oh, bless my sweet repose!
When toil invites my limbs to rest,
May no fidso horrors harm my breast ;
Breath° thro' my lips thy kindest , dreatits,
My willinzeye•lids close,
And as tho Farmer's seems,
Be such my sound repose.
SMALL FARMS.—It is not the abun
dance ofland but the thorough and skillful
cultivation of it, that tills the barn with hay,
the cribs with corn, and the mansion with
plenty. For one to crave a - larger farm
:than he can cultivate to profit, is therefore
an expensive folly; for whatever a neglected
wath,___the_interest .of the capital,
together with yearly taxes,-will at length
__eat_tho
HARVESTING OATS.
It is much the best way to mow (not to
reap) oats when beginning to turn yellow,
whether they are wanted for fodder, or for
the oats with the fodder. If a farmer wants
to make the most of his oats, if - they are ev
or so stout, let him mow them-when begin
ning to turn yellow. Dry them well, thresh
them as 'much as ho pleases, and his cattle
will eat the straw in preference to the best
bet brighter and heavier than if they stand
in the field till quite ripe,, and . thij straw is
spoiled.—Dctroit Courier. •
IMPROVEMENT OF CORN.
The Editor of the American Farmer, has
been several years in the habit of improv
ing corn by crossing diffilrent varieties,with
decided advantage. If ho has a variety
with small ears, which he deems good in
- other respects, he plants it in rows with an
other kind with large ears, that flowers at
the same time: and, at the time of the tas-
Sebi.appearing, carefully cuts away the male
flowers (or tassels) of the large eared kind.
'
By this operation, large ears are produced
of the small eared kind'. There are some
kinds of early Corn, which, though excellent
in other respects tin green corn, aro very
much injured by the coloring matter of their
red cots. This he attempted to remedy last
summer by transferrifig the corn from the
red to the white cob in the same way, and
he thinks with success. Ile planted some
-- el - the - red - cohTuskarera- - which - he - thinka
the best early green corn -in the rows with
the largest eared White cob sugar.cnrn he
---reuld-fmkubouthall-and-half.----As-the-tas
sets of the sugar corn made their appearance-
whele to be supplied by the pollen from the
tassels or male flowers, of the red cob Tus,
karom. - - The result was, he iiiiitthe Tus-
}carom corn on the white coh of the sugar
---- corrieshe desired: From his experiments
t Editor. concludes, that °variety_oL
corncorn may at pleabtro, thus Ito transrred
to the. cob of any other variety that flowers .
at the same time and that if enlarge cared
kind can befinind that lloWers ai^the proper
time,thesmallesfeared kind may be made to
produce large ears by the ads we process. He
has not extended lUsexperimentsto - iut
prot'enient of the cob of fold corn; but has
no doubt, that by the same process, the thick
cob of some. kinds may be inwroved. Sup- -
, pose the thick cob kind were planted in the
row with some other that usually has a small
cob, and ,the tassels of the latter cut 011 as
