This party called on Dr. Brandrcth directly after

of holes and natural bitches. Across this the three
friends began to crawl holding their breath, and
clutching their deadly weapons while their hearts
beat with anxiety lest their victims should escape.
Half the distance was passed over, and stI more
strongly was the cooking made evident to the nun
CRY senses of the creeping Osages Still the I'M
conscious warriors moved not, but kept their backs
turned TO the approaching foe. They were evi.
IDENTITY eating, and holding converse at intervals
At length, as the friends came still nearer, they
appeared to finish their meal, and sunk gradually
on the leafy ground to rest The Osages breathed
more freely, and advanced with less caution, until
at length, when within half dozen yards, they
rose, gave the terrific war whoop, and leaped mad.
~ upon the camp. 1t was vacant their victims
had escaped The friends, amazed, were about TO
fly from their dangerous proximity to the light,
when three distinct laughs were heard.
The Osages stood immoyable. gazing at one an
other with grim, half-angry, half-comic express
sion, and ere they could speak, three madens dis
guised as warriors stood meekly one before each
brave horses tail in one hand and the other tro-
phies in the other. The friends tried their utmost
10 look angry but the countenances of the girls
were so meek, and yet malicious, that the gravi
ty of the braves overcome, and they laughed
heartily at the conclusion of their expected deadly
struggle.
The girls then explained that, for reasons of heir
own, disappearing of the celibacy of the three
friends, they had resolved to excite their admlra
ton and interest, that they had followed them i'm
mediately after their departure, had crept then
in the night, and Invested them of their crcsts &c
and played them every other trick which has beer
recorded in this legend The warriors listened
and when they narrated how they had saved thei
lives in the ravne, seemed struck with the SAINT
sudden conviction; namely, that the lives thus pre-
served belonged to the preservers and at once made
public their opinion The damsels laughed gaily

MILKING.-I don't know any thing about which
folks are so careless in the winter that is more
disagreeabe to US women, than the manner in
which the milking is done. Many farmers do not
bed their cows at all, and the consequence is that
they lie down in their filth, and get up in the NOR
ming with bags too shocking to look at. Set boy
or man then to milking, and nine out of ten will
not half clean the cows bag before they commence,
so that the dirt falls into the pail, and BY the time
they have flushed stripping the COW, the milk is a
nasty mess indeed hardly, fit to give pig, much
less to be brought into decent dairy Bah It
makes me sick to think of the thing Who would
drink it if they knew this 20 it in any cook
ing Dor make butter from it If it was not for
being called scold, or Mrs. Caudle, would say.

These results are said to agree with those Of De
Dombale, and with those of other agriculturists.
1t will be perceived by the above table, that the
wheat produces the greatest increase in the flesh Of
the Sheep though but little greater than oats; that
peas, wheat. and rye produce the greatest increase
in wool md that barley and wheat cause the larg
est increase in taow. That on an average, grein
generally gives about three times the increase in
the flesh, that roots do when in equal weight; that
grain produces about twice as much wool rs is
caused by an equal weight of roots, and several
times the amount of tallow.
The legitimate conclusion from the foregoing is,
that the flock master, whose object is wool only, he
must rely on good hay and some straw, whose con.
stituents are admirably adapted for the growth and
perfection of wool, with moderate allowance dali
ly of ground peas and oats, and some potatoes as
green food, for the greatest amount of wool; and
those gross substances oil cake, corn meal, and ru-
ta-baga may be turned to the production Of
fat mutton.-.4merican Shepherd.

WHAT FOOD WILL PRODUCE THE MOST
WOOL.

Beans peas, vetches, &c. are the most useful for
the purpose of enrching the blood by furnishing it
with large supplies of abumen which is its princi-
pal constituent 1t will be remembered that in the
analysis OF flesh and blood the relative proportions
of their constituents nearly identical; conse.
quenty, whatever food contains nitrogen, and the
greatest amount of nlbumen, is best adapted to the
development of flesh or muscle, and is, therefore,
most nutricous. Wheat, rye, barley and buck
wheat, contain large quantities Of albumen espe
cially the first two while oats, it will have been
seen, contain 10 1-2 of the organic elements of al
bumen and peas and beans no less than twenty
nine per cent What conclusion, then, is to be
drawn from this? In Chapter !. it is that the
chemical composition Of horns, hoofs, hair, tcool,
and even feathers, is substantially the same their
organic elements are coagulated albumen and GEL
atne, and their inorganic, silica, carbonate and
phosphate of lime, and the oxides of iron and man.
ganese. Hence it will readily appear that that
kind of food given to sheep which will supply the
greatest proportion Of abumen, in the same ratio
will increase the wool secretions, and consequent.
ly be productive of the most wool, provided. how
ever, they also hold in suitable combination the in
organic substances of wool, without which they as
simulate mostly for the formation of flesh and fat.
| This may be exemphed thus "a soil may be high
" productive of corn, as well few of the cere-
al grains: yet for the production Of wheat it may
lack the proper proportion of phosphate and cabo-
nate of lime, and consequently the berry will not
only be deficient in quantity but quality.
The following table exhibits the results of the
experiments of the distinguished agricuurist, De
Raumer, on the effects produced by an equal guam
tty Of several substances in increasing the flesh,
tallow, and wool Of sheep;
