Corn hitSks and Corn StGlks.-As the hay crop
has been very short one throughout very large
portion Of our country, should be prominent OBJ
Icct with every corn grower, to gather and place
under coper those excellent substitutes for hay and
fodder OF corthusks, every farmer is familiar
with their value as food for cattle but it is and has
been too much the custom Of all, to look upon
corn-salks as Of no value except when trodden in
to manure in the COW yard -and too few take the
trouble even to avail themselves of them for such
purpose. TO all then, we say, that if corn.stalks
be gathered and housed soon after the corn shall
have been stripped off of them, that every ton of
them which may be thus saved, will, if cut, prove
to be the equivalent of threefourths Of ton of the
best hay as food for cattle, and that, if they be
steamed, they will be eaqual to a ton.
Corn CobS. In view of the scarcity of long
provender, we cannot omit calling attention to this
excellent, but too often wasted, resource Corn
cobs, as we have shown in former NUMBER arc
rich in nutrition containing, in the proportion Of
to 8 MS much nutritious matter as the grain which
may have been sheed off Of them. This beng
the case, no farmer can, without being chargable
with wasteful disposition, suffer them to be lost
to his stock as food If crushed before being fed,
their value will be greatly enhanced-.4merican

.New Discoveries IN Pompeii. Early in the month
of October last the scientific Congress then in ses-
sion at Naples, with its President, the Minister of
State, Sanangelo, went to Pompe, where in pres
ence of that company researches were made under
the direction of NJ. Carlo Bonucci, conservator in
chief of the antiquities of the Kingdom
These operations were crowned with perfect
success. In street near the temple Of Augustus,
two shops were discovered filled with different
cooking utensils of iron and bronze, which were
probably exposed for sale there Opposite these
shops was found a magazine containing blocks OF
the native African MARBLE of different sizes, among
which was that of Faun, and another represent
ing skeleton Of woman enveloped in inll dra-
perry, In this last statue, the psychologists who
were present, thought to recognise the Goddess of
Envy.
At one OF the eXtremities of the street of For
tune, house was uncovered containing in the
basement great saloon furnished like Office foI
business, and in one part of it were coins OF the
time of the Emperors Vespasian and Galba, and
some marble weights All the heights surrounding
Pompeii, and several of the streets and squares Of
that city, were filed with people, walking about il
every direction, so that it seemed for the moment
that the old Roman city had recovered its popula
ton, its life and motion.

STALL FEEDING.

1t is the abuse of stab feeding that has got it in
to disrepute with some people, and the not tread
ing down straw enough with Others This last
hold to be an advantage, instead of disadvantage
for, depend upon it, it is not the size Of the dung
hill but the quality of the manure that causes the
farmers stack-yar1 TO be well filed. If managed
well, contend that there is no plan SO good as
stall-feeding. The fattening house may be of any
size shape but it is necessary that there should
be underground drains, with gratngs, to carry off
the urine into the liquid manure tank; shutters
behind the buocks to regulate the heat and a
wide passage at their heads TO feed them and clean
their hangers. The advantage l conceive to be
the quantity of litter required being smaller there
fore the muck being made better, the temperature
beng more easily regulated, and every bullock be-
ing allowed to eat his share in peace. The dlsad
vantage of the animal not being able to rub him
self so well, consider fully done away with by
the rough brush which you will observe | recon-
mend using; and although theorists may fancy the
health of the animal likely to suffer, have never
found 1t so in practice.-Cor. of English .qgricuL

To cure Shscp Skins toith The Wool on.-Take a
spoonful of alum and two of satpere pulverize
and mix well together then sprinkle the powder on
the flesh side of the skim and lay the two flesh sides
together, leaving the wool outside. Then fold up
the skin as tight as you can, and hang it in dry
place. In two or three days, as soon as it is dry,
take it down and scrape it with blunt knife till
clean and supple This completes the process,
and makes complete saddle cover If, when you
kill your mutton, you treat the skins this way you
can get more for them from the saddler, than you
can get for the wool and skin separately disposed
of otherwise.
Other skins which you desire to cure with the
fur or hair on, may be treated in the same way

THE OBJECTS OF FARMING.


The main objects of farming are, or should be,
two fold viz:
/. The greatest net profit, with reference, how.
ever,
10 the Improvement, or at least 10 the preser-
walton Of the fertility of the soil.
He that wears out his land by parsimonious sn-
ting Of manure, and labor and close cropping, with
a view to present gain, may be compared to the in
temperate man who parts with his last COW that fed
While good land always pays liberal reward to
labor, poor land often beggars its proprietor. The
fault is often admitted, that our farmers cultivate
too much land to cultivate it well that they are
too parsmonlous of their expenditure to put and
keep in order, and they rely more upon proptious
seasons, good luck, and the special bounties of
Providence, for good crops than they do upon good
management-upon the capital and labor employ
ed in the Improvement Of their grounds. There
is no sounder maxim for the guidance of the farm
er, than that which teaches" what you do, do il

THE BEE-IIIVE.

We often hear it asserted by aparans that the
bee manlfests repugnance to work downwards-
that is contrary to their nature and habits. In
one of the English Journals, however, Mr.. Jctson
recommends this mode as preferable to all others.
He says:-
81 place board, half an inch in thickness, and
eighteen inches square, perforated with two holes
an inch in diameter, over butter tub and upon
that place the hive as early us March, the bees
have great dislike to any disturbance of their ar
rangement. last year took upwards of DO lbs. of
honey in this way, and left an ample supply
for the swarm to subsst on during the winter al
though the season was remarkably bad: and in this
way have carried off the prizes for honey, at the
Heny Horticultural Society, for the last four years.
This plan will prove good substitute for the
modes Of rearing according TO the usual custom
it has the advantage of obtaining supply of hon.
ey from the strong swarms, as well as from the old
hivesn
