From the Boston Cultivator.
NEW MODE OF FARMING,

pray you, Messrs. Editors, permi' me
TO detail, what appears 10 me, new mode
of farming. IT was communicated in the
way of conversation with an, .honesl old
German; who informed me he had pbstsr-
chased a small farm Of 10 acres in the
neighborhood of the Lebish coal region,
where also he had charge of a lotK Oh tie
canal; that Ibe mex, year he should have i
taller (lars,rl { rm and deyole, himselfto
lis cultivation. inquired if be wapGld
grow corn ? Yes And wheat4 Yes.
Oats? Yes, for the fodder, and Gu, II
all up together, grain and straw, Would
be keep a dairy? mo, only one Cow for
my wife, as | do not care for milk and bur
ler.' Hogs? No, only one ortwo. 10 cal
up The waste about the house, Then what
stock would you keep? None 10 summer
but plenty in winler.' then desired him
10 detail his plan, which he did in his Quaint
manner, as follows:
II keeps no cow, no OK, no sheep no hog
all summer. nor plow much, All lmy land
SO MUCH as can give 10 grass. Then
when, my neiehbors say, oh. my cows and
my hogs sc, III my corn, and eat all ,up;. !
say l keeps no cow and no hog-I syety
comfortable about my fences, they COST me
nothing, for | have no cattle 10 break them.
But makes the hay so much as ] can,
aud my cornstalks so big as | can, and my
oats SO much as can. and save alfup for
winter; great barn AMI stable quite full.
aud the ricks in the yard. Then | watch
my neighbors; for when hear John Stone
say, in the spring, oh, got much grass, !
must buy two cows, when he hant 'nough
for one COW, say 10 myself, oh, i buy
your cows in winter, when you gol no hay
for them. So when he come aud say you
buy my two cows cause you got plenty
hay; | say yes, / give you five dollar
piece for Them; and so ] gels them, cause
he got no hay nor nothing to give them.
So do with the rest Of my neighbors. only
| do not buy the. bad COWS, only the good
cows what will have calls; and they keep
the had cows cause nobody win buy them.
So ! keeps them web, and cleans them
very nice, and makes them very fat, and
big; and when the lilllc. calls cornes-l
gives them all the milk, and, they grow fat
and big; aud then my neiefibors comes. in
The spring, aud wants 10 buy their COWS
again.. for they got the grass and. no cows
70 earl II;: and; SO I seiis rbem their own
cows fOr20 dollars apiece, aud sometimes
thirty or forty but keeps the calls, sells
my neiShbors their own cows, again, but /
gets all ths dung !, and as they gets no dung,
they get no crops; while gets all the
dung, and crops and the profit loo!' j.:
;. Messrs. Editors, when | hear my neigh
bors inquire what course they shall adopt,
so as not to follow. exactly in the path
which. others are pursuing, think OF my
old German friend who "gets the dung. the
crops, aud the profits too,'' and an led to
ask, if there be any objection to tie plan
here poiCled out.
