Mr.. J. a. Grimes. of ofilorrudsbursh. Kcn,uc.
Ky. gives the following rs his method Of feeding
mi,cb COWS:
I'VE procure in the faN all the cnrn..hrcks
we can. as line farmers pu; little value upon
them. When wc commence feeding, we have
large kettle in which wc can heat water. az |
basket holding the quantity we intend lnr each
animal. We then take the shucks 10 4 common
cutting box. and cut them us you would hay or
oats, and scad them few minutes in the kettle
Then take them ont and sprinkle three quarts
of meal 10 the bnshel Of cut shucks. and you
will have better feed than three gallons OF
corn or meal, iix it rs yon will. When was
last in Mississippi the coru crop was very short
and suggested this way Of feeding TO some OF
my friends. for feeding ninles and horses as
well ns mich cows. and before lett, was told
the cows had improved very much in the quail.

THE MOUNT VERNON FARMER.

The fame of Gen. Washington as a SOL
dier and statesman is universally known
and highly admired By all who appreciate
talents, worth, and love Of country; buc
his character as farmer was less known
in his day, and his memory in this respect
is not venera'ed according 10 its desert
Possessing ample means and The mos, ar
dent love Of rural life, lie was one the offirst
experimental aud practical farmers in Viz
ginio. His estate at Nj. Vernon consis-
ted Of l0,000 acres Of land in one body,
equal TO about Is square miles. il was
divided into farms Of convenient size, ar
distance of =. 3, and 5 miles, from his
mansion house. These farms he visited
every day in pleasant weather, and was
constantly engaged in making experiments
Tor the improvement Of agriculture.
Some idea of the cxtsnt Of his farming
operations may he formed from The follow
ing fac,s,--in 1887 he had 500 acres in
grass-sowed 600 bushels of oats-700
acres with wheat, and prepared as much
more fnr corn. harley, potatoes, beans,
peas. &c. and $50 with rurnips. His
stock consisted Of lI0 horses, ll2 cows,
a35 working oxen. heifers and steers, and
500 sheep. lic constantly employed $50
hands. and kept "a ploughs going dnring
The whole year. when the earth and The
state of The wenlhcr would permit. Ia
l7eG, he slaughtered l50 hogs, weighing
1860. for The use Of mis- family. besides
provisions for his negros.--Sikk Cultarist.

SLEEP.

II is n mistaken idea that much sleep il

thirds Of the time may be spent in this
state, and nc injury arise from il, and in
extreme old age the system requires much
rest. but in middle age. when The frame is
robust. one third Of the lime, that is, eight
hours, is generally fully sufficient TO keep
The body in health aud vigor. Many peo-
Pile do not require more than FIVE and six
hours. and some people have for the grea-
ter part oflheir lives required but three.
Students. and Nil men who exer, the mind.
require more than people who only ia
rigue The body. il alsn requires longer
time Tor The mind 10 fall asleep when It
has been excited than for the body. This
may seem strange, bu, il is certain that
some of The senses sleep sooner than 9th

Light clouds are flying,
Soft winds are signing.
WewIIl be thoughtful FOL autumn is near.
And make the mind thoughtful Gr autumn is
near.
blossoms we cherished
Have wi;hered and pcrished,
Scenes which we smiled on are yellow and
draar;
Feelings of sadness,
O'er.I,adow our gadness
Thus all that is fairest.
And swecies, and rarest.
Must shortly be severed, AMI cal! FOR n tear;
Then lc, each emotion,
BE warm with tcyotion:
And we will be thoughtful, for autumn is near
