itraw or coarse fodder in use up among

straw or coarse fodder in use up among
your stock.
1t has been ascertained by careful expe.
liments of men of sense and close observa.
ton, that the saving made by the use of
these maChines amounts to from one.6Gh
10 one-IouFth. This is a great sayinq-
twenty-five or even twenty per cent, utter.
est on a note that you owed would make
you sweat, and every honest means that vou
could adopt to save it, you would not be
slow in taking. We ask what is The great
difference between saving twenty or TWEEN
ty-fye per cent. in your fodder operations
in the barn-yard, or twenty or twenty. five
per cent. in your counting room? 1t is all
cash, any way that you can look at it.
Let us %"cyDlcr" about it, a little. Your
stock will use up twenty tons of hay durinp
the winter, in the common, careless, sin.
shob way of foddering it out. If by cutting
it and foddering it out carefully, you can
save one fifth Of il, you will save four tons !;
or in other words, you can get drought the
winter with sixteen tons. To do this YOU
will have to buy a straw cutter, which will
cost you, say twelve dollars, or, (f hay is
worth $40 per ton, a ton and and a fifth,
or twenty.four hundred of hay. You will
therefore not only pay yourself for the straw
cutter, but make a handsome saving be-
sides, Think it over, neighbor, and see if
we are not right in this matter.

Lamycr.--No m1dam he is too young

do You think this boy so much better cal

Lady-Why, you see, sir, lie is just
seven years old to-day when he was only
five he'd lie like all nature when he got to

A Monster of the Deep.

In some parts of the ocean there are
enormous sea animals, called Sepla, which
are a kind of poIypi. They have very long
legs, and are said sometimes TO seize upon
the coral divers along the coast of Italy
Mr.. Beal tells the following adventure with
a creature of this sort
While upon the Bouin Islands, searching
for shells on the rocks, which had Just been
left by the RESIDING tide, | was much as
tonished at seeing at my feet a most extra
ordinary looking animal, crawling towards
the retreating surf. | had never seen one
like it before, 1t was creeping on its eight
legs, which, from their soft, and flexible
nature, bent considerably under the weight
Of IFS body. SO that it was lifted by the et.
forts Of its tentacula only a small distance
from the rocks.
1t appeared much alarmed on seeing me,
and made every effort TO escape, while was
not much in the humor to endeavor to cap
ture so ugly a customer, whose appearance
excited a feeling of disgust, not unmixed
with fear. |, however, endeavored to pre-
vent lis escape, by pressing on one OF Its
legs Wit my foot; but although used con-
siderable force for that purpose, its strength
was 50 great that it several times quickly
liberated its member, in spite OF all the et-
forts | could employ in this way, on wet,
slippery rocks. | now laid hold Of one OF
the t~enacles with my hand, and held il
firmly, SO that the limb appeared as if il
would be torn asunder by onr united
strength. gave it a powerful jerk, wishing
to disengage it from the rocks to which
chung so lorclbly by its suckers, which il
effectuaIly resisted; but the moment ofter
the apparently curaged animal lifted It's head
with its large eyes projecting from the mid
