Value of " Look Farming.''
However much ths men of ignorance,
or of antiquated notions, may Iterate the
idea, there is no question " book farm
ing" j uts money into the pocknts of the
thoughtful, industrious tiller of the soil
I'rogress is a prominent feature of " the
world we live iu." Every art, every s-i
ence, and every calling, are making rapid
strides along the path of Improvement.
Thought itself receives an onward, accele
rating impetus ia the grand march, as is
evidenced :a the great discoveries of the
a"0, and in ths fact that now " bayonets
think."
There can not be found in any other

Thorough Tilling.
J. Redmond, of York county, argues in
favor of thorough tillage, which next to,
aud indeed equal to mauure, should be
impressed ujtou the mind of every farmer.
lie justly says :
" One of the great elements of fertilisa
tion in Si.i'ils, is the perfect loosening of
(hem, so that the different ingredients
composing them, be thoroughly incorpora
ted, aud brought to the surface, and thus
receive the advantages of exposure to the
un and atmosphere. Xone but a simple
ton would pretend to doubt the value of
manure, or asert the possibility of grow
ing good cmps for any length cf time
rtiihout it, but he ij scarcely wiser who
oelieves (and lnauifests his belief in his
laily practiec,) that his crops will be abuu-
dant where his tiilage is meagre. Show
me the husbandman whose plowing is shal
low whoso breaking of the clods prepar
atory to seeding is imperfectly done
whose fields are strangers to the roller, and
lo,,k vci t much as though tho harrow and
cultivator had never beta used upon them,
ami I will show you poor fields yields
that will scarcly pay for the labor and cx
peusp, much less Lave any profit behind."

Fatting Calves "F.T." of Dauphin
Co., Pa., having tried various modes of
fattening calves,has adopted the follow ing
as the best : About onj gallon and a
liaif of the milk of the dam is daily mixed
with the meal of beans, which the calf
greedily consumes, and which he finds is
as effectual iu forming bone and muscle
'a tha whole of the milk, amounting to
Tour or five gallons per day. This system
' pursued for two weeks ; at the cud of
.vhich tiina he substitutes linseed fr
bean-meal, on which the calf rapidly fat
teDs.and in four weeks is Ct for the kuteh-
er, and in the finest condition. l'atn.
Farm Jmr.
TiiAiMxo Steers. By far the best
timo to train Steers is when they arc
falves, the first winter. A person can
then manage them w ith ease, and put them
under good discipline, aud they will never
f'irgct it. Let the training be done by a
person of discretion, and not allow boys
who were never trained themselves to do
this by way of a frolic.
Adjoummeat of tho Legislature.
The Legislature adjourned yesterday at
12, l., tin tlie. Tho number of Ltw
pasel is larg, but mostly of private or
local interest only. Those of general
interest are few, and include one authoriz
ing a loan of ?Hi,0U0,fnr tha completion
of the North Blanch Canal, adding that
amount to the penuaaent increase of the
State DU.
The members mostly left immediately
after adjournment for their respective
homes. JiirrisLury Td'jrajuli, 2Iay y.
After a four months session, the Legis
lature of Pennsylvania lias finally
adjourned. The good that it lias done in
this Ion:; session it is rather difficult to
discover, but it has not done as much
harm as we anticipated some moirths ago.
Indeed, we can recur at this tim to but
few acts that we think will prove of great
advantage to the public interests. The
provision relative to the management of
the public works is one of the best acts of
the session. Tho adoption of the cash
system on the public works, can not fail
to exercise a most salutary influcnco in
the repair department. The provision for
the completion of the North Branch
Canal, we consider wise and proper ; and
the section authorizing a loan to cancel

Both these machines attract great attention

from competent aud disinterested judges.
They havo also an extensive and advanta
