THE HUSBANDMAN
Neatness in Farming.

We have somewhere heard the re.
mark, that with the good farmer every
thing gives way TO his business--that
utility is all, and appearance nothing;
hence you are not 10 expect neatness
about his dwelling, his door-yard being
cutup into mud by the farm-wagon and
the manure.cari, and the contiguity Of
barns, pig pens and kitchen, and not
freedom from the peculiar odors OF hog
yard and rich manure heap, may die.
tate. ....... .r
q Now to speak bluntly, this is all non.
sense. 1t happens that, in farming,
3 neatness and thrift almost invariably 60
together. The same love of order which
prompts the farmer TO clear his yard Of
broken barrels, old hoops, fragments Of
boards and sticks Of wood, and what
ever else defaces and defiles his prem
ises-also prompts him to have a place
for every thing, and every thing in its
place, which is calculated to bear upon
real substantial profit.
Some Of the very best farmers with
whom we are acquainted-whose en-
inent success and heavy profits sePa-
rate them in this respect, in bold dis
tinctness, from the rest of their neigh
mbors-are patterns Of neatness, and the
touch Of their hands in the expulsion
of every kind Of nuisance is visible all
over their farms. Their door-yards
show that the master is Sat home," the
barn yard which is not so near the
house that al the butter and cheese
manufactured is favored with the ef-
fluvia, exhibits the same neatness even
where the refuse of all other places IS
collected, for enriching, in due time,
the rest of the farm. A farmer of our
acquaintance, with one hundred and
sixty acres, in whose farm-yard We
could scarcely ever discover wisp Of
straw in .he wrong place, remarked
.tOh. l don't attempt to make great
deal from my farm expend so much
in Improvements that my clear profits
are only about thousand dollars a
year." Another of those neat farm
ers, in whose fields cookie. docks and
chess obtain no foot-hold, nor along
whose fences solitary elder bush or
nettle is ever seen, raised twenty-sev-
en- hundred dollars worth Of farm pro.
duce at the prices Of 1874; and both
Of these farmers live in western New
York, where prices are comparatively
low, entirely away from the peculiar
advantages of market which nearness
to great cities gives. ~
c- Now let no one say that these re-
marks are made at the wrong season
Of the year, and that nothing can be
done for neatness and order in the
e winter. The same general rule, in
q some shape or variation, has an almost
n ia6nite number Of applications. The
o., care OF domestic animals in winter
needs pre-eminendy the Application OF
this rule. No animal can thrive well

HOWARD HIGH SCHOOL.

We last week avaied ourselves of an
invitation which is always open for its
friends and patrons, of visiting this institu
ton, and were highly pleased with the ex
ercises, which consisted of defamation and
the reading Of compositions. Once in
every four weeks, the students are required
to prepare themselves for these exercises
In general, the subjects were well selected
and treated in a manner which reflected
considerable credit on the students. The
delivery Of some of them might be con-
siderably improved, and will, if they will
but follow the advice of one Of the papers
read; the majority Of the reading, how
ever, was executed with distinctness of
enumeration which was very creditable, and
entirely free from that automatical air
which is too prevalent in such matters.
The SIXTH session of this institution is
now half completed. 1t has been steadily
increasing in patronage and public favor
since its establishment, which is the best
possible evidence of the capacity of its
superintendent, Messrs. LUCKY & SCAR
RIFT. The annual catalogue for this year
will show some one hundred and seventy
Students male and female
The buildings of the institution are large
and commodious, and so arranged as tc
keep the male and female departments en-.
tirely separate. The former is under the
immediate superintendent of Mr.. SCAR.
RIFT, assisted by E. X. ArrERBuRY, a
young gentleman well adapted to his sta
ton, who received his education in the
institution: the latter under Mr.. LUCKY
assisted by Miss JANE LEWIS, who has been
connected with the institution since the
commencement Of the present session, and
who is well qualified for the responsible
and arduous duties Of her profession.
We chcerful'y and earnestly commend
this institution to parents in this and ad.
