The Patent Cow mixer.

Our readers NAV have seen il stated in the pa
pers, that an ingenious Yankee has recently in.
vented an Indian Ruber fixture for milking cows.
One of our friends has made trial of it, and the
result was quite satisfactory 1t consists of a sack
for each teat, of size to receive that organ, and
to adhere closely to it as to stop the admission
of the surrounding air. Connected with the low
er end Of the sack is silver tube, which passes
into the teat about an inch To each tube is a
stopper. When the sacks are all properly adjust
ed the pail is placed in position to receive the
milk, which, as as the shoppers are drawn.
commences flowing in uninterrupted streams till
the whole has made its escape. The process is
fastened, if not entirely occasioned, by the pres
sure of the atmosphere upon the bag. The cow
appeared TO experience no sensation that caused
her in the least measure to move or be uneasy,
from which it may be inferred that the insertion of
the tubes caused no irritation. As soon as the
milk ceased to flow the tubes and sacks were re-
moved; and twas found by making trial with the
hand no milk remained in the bag The opera
tion was Of short duration probably not exceeding
a minute for the discharge Of the milk after the
shoppers were removed from the tubes. The con-
cluSlOn was Drawn lIldt WneH d person became Ia
miiar with applying the sacks to the teats, he
would milk eight or Ten cows while milking one
by hand. To milkmen and all others keeping a
large number Of cows, the saving of time will be
no trivial consideration. One person would prob
ably milk thirty or forty cows in an hour The
fixture is certainly very ingenious, and should be
we'll tried. No objection to it was apparent in
this experiment. yet it might not be an object for
those who keep only one or two cows. lfitsaves
time at the above supposed, it is no difficult
matter to estimate the amount saved in year to
an individual having fifty cows. One Of them may
be at this office; and, if desired can be pur-
chased a. the Union India Rubber Depot, Nassau
street, New York. We believe the cost is only
fifty CENTS Necark Eagle.

Farming Successfully Without Ma

We find the following in the Paris correspon-
dence of the Globe:
Considerable sensation has been created a
mong the agrculturists of this department, by the
results of the experiments made by M. Dussan, OH
farm Of about $50 acres at St. Maur. M. Dus-
san is the patentee of liquid in which the grain
is stepped for "a hours before it is sown On
some of the land sown with this prepared seed,
and without manure, the crop has been one sixth
more than ever was on the same land when richly
manured-and on richly manured land sown with
prepared seed, the crop is double. Sometime ago,
good deal was said about liquid for the same
purpose, invented by NJ. Bckers, bat the results
were not satisfactory. This, however, is not the
case with the liquid I'M. Dussan, and his results
have been verified by the authorities. The cost of
this liquid is only one-tenih Of the average price
of the ordinary manure, and consequently, even
at the low price OF corn in the market, the $50
acres at ST. Maur, yielded an enormous profit.
