Dry Stables for Cattle.

We believe a dry, naked plank floor is better
Tor cattle, even in the coolest weather, than a
wet one, well Uttered with straw. This can be
easily enough secured by hlving a short length
OF plank, Just long enough for the cattle to stand
on, resting upon Others in the rear, which should
extend lengthwise Of the stables, and at rigbt
angles with the former. 1t would be still better
to have the first plank in the rear Of the cattle.
fashioned into a shallow trough, descending GEN.
thy towards one, or from the centre. towards both
ends OF the stable, where the liquid void wouId
run Oft at once, and might thence be conducted
into a reservoir, or on to muck heap. A Ii
tie regard to the comfort of the dumb beasts
will be consulting the owners best interest. If
they must find shelter in the yard, they should
be provided with snug dry sheds around the
windy sides, so as effectualIy to protect them
against the rains, SHOWS and sleet, and the rough
cold blasts. 1t is better that there should also
be provided with substantial plank floors, descen-.
ding towards the centre OF the yard, so as to
drain off whatever liquid falls upon them. These
floors should always be kept clean, and thet
will consequently be much dryer and more com
Portable. If there be any straw to spare, it
should lie appropriated to those open sheds, in
preference to the stabes, as the increased warmth
thereby impaired to the cattle, is still less than
in the well borded buildings.-Agricuhurist..

To EcONOmiSe Food for Stock.

The great scarcity of hay and fodder, owing
to the excessive drought of the past season, will
make 1t necessary, on the part of farmers, to
economist their food the coming winter to the
utmost. In addition to procuring cutters to
chop up the hay, straw, and cornstaIks, cooking
Inc 1000 in many instances may be resorted to
with economy.
Take a boiler of so gallons, into this put 25
lbs OF bran, 3 bushels of vegetables (clean wash
ed and sufficient winter to cover the whole. stir
them well up together, and let them simmer four
or five hours at nearly a boiling heat, and then
pour out into tubs or barrels, and feed the My
tnre about warm. If the food is for work hor-
fes or oxen, a little Indian, oat, or barley meal
should be added to the above to make 1t heartier.
1t IS astonishing how well stock will keep on
a cooked mess of this kind, and how much less
nay they will eat. Some reckon the hay under
these circumstances at one third of the ordinary
ratio OF 81 lbs; but if ii saves one half, at the
present high price, it will be deserving of prac-
tee. For the animals which ale not at work,
cut straw or corn-stdlks will answer well instead
OF hay-especially the latter, Some 90 so far
as to say that the hay could also be simmered
with economy bat as this would require a very
large kettle, we must doubt it. Simmerinp is
preferable to steaming, because it preserves all
the juices of every substance employed in ma
KING up the mess; this, however, requires a very
kettle, which is quite expensive. For
steamlng purposes, a well joined box, or a tight
hogshead, may be employed, and a small boiler
with a pipe to conduct the steam into them. We
need not describe such, as they are to be found
in every neighborhood. Motifs stove boilers,
from Is to 100 gallons, and costing
from SO to $40 each, are an admirable con,ri-
vance for cooking food, and may be had in this
We will further add, that by supplying
horses and cattle with cooked food, they eat it
in a short time, and then lie down to rest,
md are thus enabled to do more work, and keep
n better condition than if fed on dry food.

Farmers Creed

We believe in small farms and thorough cul
%tivation.
We believe that the soil loves to eat, as it.
owner, and ought to be matured.
We believe in large crops which leave the
land better than they found it, making both the
farmer and the farm rich at once.
We believe in going to the bottom Of things
and therefore, in deep ploughing and enough
oft. All the better if with a subsoil pillow.
We believe the best fertilizer of any soil is a
spirit Of industry, enterprise, and intelligence
without this, lime and gypsum bones and green
munure, mari and gnano, will be of little use.
We believe in good fences. good barns, good
farm houses, good stock, good orchards, and
children enough to gather the fruit.
We believe in a clean kitchen, a neat wife in
it, a spinning piano, a clean cupboard, a clear
conscience.
We disbelieve in farmers who will not improve
lin farms that grow poorer every year-far-
mer's boys turning into clerks and merchants
in farmers ashamed of their vocation, or who
drink whiskey till honest men are ashamed of
them.
Moreover, we believe in taking a newspaper
and paying for it. Such hints are worth at least
a years pay.

Poetry.
The Burial at Morn.
BY MRS. MARY A. LIvERMoRr.

1t was customary among the ancients to bury the
young at early morn, because, wishing to give the sui
test Interpretation possible to death, they said that Au
rorea, the goddess of the morning, had stolen them tt
her embrace.
The cline was warm and sunny, and blue and soft thu
sky,
The crimson rays of morning were floating far aDt
high,
The earth was gemmed with flowers o every form ant
hue,
In which were sweetly nesting the pearly drops of dew
Yet there came wildly pulsing the fragrant air along.
Which swayed the citron bowers, a sad and 1unere
song;
A thrilling sound ofmoIuI ing, a solemn spirit-wail.
That made the heat beat faintly, and causes the cheel
to pale,
They came, a band of maidens, with slow and meas
ured tread,
And sadly did they bear her, the young and early dead;
Death lay in those dark tresses, and stilled their wavy
flow;
Upon her brow his signat he placed, his own to know.
He q~uenched the dark eyes brightness, and stole the
On youths soft cheek that bushes, when LIES warm
current flows;
He stayed the young hearts gushing that in her bosom
beat,
The agile form he Strengthened, and hushed the dan
cling feet.
And SO they bore her from them to dwell among the
dead;
They paved her grave with flowers, to take away its
dread;
From lips with grief that quivered, there swelled u fare
well song
That flouted sadly onward, as breezes swept along:
O, maiden loved and lovely,
We bear thee to thy rest:
We lay thee in thy beauty
Upon the cold elrths brest.
Aurora bright hath called thee;
Go then to her embrace.
We %sorrowfully yield thee
Thou maid of dove-like grace.
Thy resting-place we've chosen
Where howrets brightly bloom,
And with the fairest blossoms
We've gemmed thine early tomb.
Say, dwellest thou where flowers
Undying radiance fling?
Where gush the living waters
A never-failing spring?
We know not, child ofmorning:
We cannot trace thy track;
We miss thy cleaning beauty:
We may not win the back.
They placed the fowery chaplet upon the death-dam-
ped brow,
kissed the lip so w%hitened, which gave no answer
now.
The rosy queen of morning had won that radiant face,
mat form OF matchless beauty, her dewy halls to grace.
