Good price indeedl his wife would re-
ply, you had better have sold two of
them cat at-hammed, cropped legged, scraw-
ney things that you always keep for cows.
The reason that our cattle always look so
bad, and that we sell so little butter and
cheese is, that you always sell the best.
Poor woman! pity her; her pride
and ambition are injured, her children
and SELF in rags, because her native in
dustry is cramped by the foolish and Mig
gardly policy of he.r husband.
The picture is reversed in farmer
Poundwisc, who always keeps his best
animals until full grown; then selecting
his best breeders for his own use, he sells
the rest. If he has a good young horse,
he will say that he will make a fine team
horse; mare, she will make a fine brood
mare.
and what will you do with that?' says
his neighbor, pointing to an ordinary an
imal.
Between you and me, says he, I shall
sell that colt the first chance. Such an
animal spoils the looks Of all the rest and
will not pay for keeping
Thus he will sell out his poor steers,
hiefers, sheep and pigs at the first offer
If not sold, he would fatten those that
would pay the expense, and give away those
thatwould not. Notpay the expenseof fat
tening! Are there any cattle, sheep OF
hogs that will not pay the expense Of fat
tening? Reader take some Of each-ol
the real Pharoah breed-feed them until
fat; keep an exact account Of the expense
and you cananswer this question yourself
In this way Farmer Poundwise always
has valuable stock; his steers are ready
sale, and command good price; his hor
ses are the best in the neighborhood and
the first to be looked at by purchasers
So with all the animals he eraises. Penny
wise on the contrary, is thronged with al
ill-shaped, worthless stock, that none viii
buy or pay the expense Of raising, which
are continually eating out his substance
and making no return. Thus Pennywist
drags on miserable life in the road tc
ruin, while Poundwise moves easily anc
happily along in the road to wealth.

Work to be Done.

KITCHEN GARDEN Look to the dlree-
ton for the farm, aboye.-(If not already
done, transplant cabbages,. caulfower,
broccoli; replant failing crops OF beets,
carrots, &c. Prepare trenches for celery
beforehand, that they may receive the
rains previous to planting Plant car
doons, celery, endive, leeks, pepper plants,
DC. Leeks and cabbages may be trans
planted, even in dry wea her, if the roots
be dipped into mixture of mud and wa
ter, but in such case, the ground must be
perfectly turned over; but many harrow
an hour before planting, and in such case,
unless the ground bevery moist, the plants
may fail. Where ground has not been
sufficiently saltcd to destroy grubs, the
roots may be dipped in fish oil and then
in plaster Of paris, which will not only
protect them against the attacks Of worms
but will also act as manure.
Grubs annoy plants less after the mid
die Of July than before, but in moist ex-
posures this date is rather late for putting
out the later kinds of cabbages.
Plant cucumber seeds for pickles, sow
endive seeds and transplant former SOW
ings. Peas may still be planted if soaked
in water for a few hours before planting.
Caulo rapas and ruta baga may still be
sown, and after July 1st, the other sorts
of turneps may be sown. We continue to
sow the strap-leayed red-top turneps as
late as the ground is open, and as it be-
comes vacant, for even if sown in the lat
ter part of the summer, or even autumn,
if the winter be very mild, they may per-
feet and be drawn out on mild days during
winter, for when turneps thaw in the
ground they are seldom injured by hav-
ing been frozen, and if the winter should
prove severe, the turneps being plowed in
during the spring plowing, will improve
the soil; they take SO large proportion
of their constituents from the atmosphere
that they actas an improving manure
Pot herbs should be cut this month
Winter summer savory, burnet, chervil,
mint, parsley, fennel, sweet marjoram,
tarragon, thine, &C., will be ready for
gathering. In thelatter par ofthe monh
July 20, to Aug 1st. keep beds well
hoed and weeded Disturb vacant
ground thoroughly before carting out
manures for late manures for late turnep
and other crops; plow in manures as soon
as applied. and the ground may then
be considered as ready for turneps, spi
mage, shallots, &C., &c. Pickles may
still be planted with some hope of success.
Sow lettuce for autumn use. Peas may
still be planted plant beans for pickles
Earth up celery, SOW fictitious; the earlier
kinds of cucumbers may still be planted
for pickles; sow onion seed to stand the
winter. Early sown onions should now
be taken care Of as ripened. This is the
proper time for sowing the principal tur-
nep crops. Gather seeds as they ripen,
and prepare unoccupied ground for late
crops.
In the early part of the month look to
summer pruning Of grape vines.

Cutting Timber.

If oak, hickory or chestnut timber is
felled in the eighth month, (August) in
the second running of the sap, and bark
ed, quite large tree will season perfect
ly, and even the twigs will remain sound
for years; whereas, that cut in winter,
and remaining until next fall, (as thick as
ones wrist, will be completely sap-rotten
and will be almost useless for any purpose.
The body of the oak split into rails will
not last more than TO- or l9 years. Chest
nut will last longer, but no comparison to
that in the eighth month. Hickory cut
in the eighth month is not subject to be
worm eaten, and will last long time for
fencing.
When | commenced farming in 1862,
it was the practice to cut timber for post
fencing in the winter. White-oak posts
and blackjack rails, cut at that time. |
found would not last more than 10 or 12
years. In 1903, l commenced cutting
fence timber in the eighth month. Many
OF the oak rails cut that year are yet
sound, as well as p'ost Of those formed OF
chestnut If the bark is not taken of
this month, however, it will peel off itseli
the second or third year, and leave the sar
perfectly sound. The tops of the tree.
are also more valuable for fuel, than wher
cut in winter or spring.

pertinent for themselves, and if post fen
ces will not last twice as long, forfeit al

Tarritory Controversy.

The Santa Fe Weekly Gazette, speak
ing Of the Americantitle to the Messilla

declaration, which will, if rendered au-
thentic by documentary and historical ev-
idence, have an appointment bearing up
on the decision Of the question:
''The territory involved in this unsettled
boundary, up to the time of fixing the in
idal point, was under the jurisdiction Of
the territory of new Mexico. AS soon,
however, as the point was agreed upon,
the Mexican authorities took possession of
it and extended their authority over it,
and actually dispossessed all Americans
who had made Improvements in the vii
lage, depriving them of their improve
ments and labor without compensation

SIMPLE STUMP MAcHINE.-A simple
contrivance for removing stumps is de
scribed in late number of the Michigan
Farmer, and which, the editor was inform
ed, had taken out hundred and forty
stumps in half a day.
The contrivance is simply this:-A stiff,
massive lever, about twenty feet long, is
placed with its thick or stronger end at the
side of the stump; chain several feet
long, with links made of inch or inch and
quarter iron, and with long ring at
one end, is then attached to the end Of the
pole by means of the ring, and the rest of
the chain passes round the stump, and
hooked into a root or in the body. A
yoke of oxen now attached to the other or
smaller end of the lever, exerts an enor-
nous power, and unless the stumpis quite
large, will quickly twist it out.

RINGBoNE.- disease SO termed be-
cause it constituted bony growth round
the pastern- bone, is of two kinds, which
are distinguished by horsemen as true and
false ringbones. The former occurs at
the pastern joint, and generally arises
from strain of these ligaments; but the
latter consists in ossifcation of the carti-
leges of the sides of the foot,
which become enlarged, as well as con-
converted into bone. The best treatment
for ringbones of either kind is, after the
inflammation has been in great measure
removed by cooling applications, to fire
the parlor, ortherwise rub in the iodide of
mercury ointment, washing off the effects
on the following day, and thus repeating
1t again and again. We have by such
means succeeded in removing the lame
ness, diminishing the enlargement, and
restoring the animal in many cases, to a
state of usefulness.-Spoomer.

MATRIMoNY AND FRIENDsHIP.--Sa
Slick, in his "Wise Saws" says that the
natur of matrimony is one thing, and the
natur of friendship is another. A tall
man likes short wife; a great talker
likes silent woman, for both can't talk
at once. A gay man likes domestic
Gal, for he can leave her at once to nurse
children and make pap, while he is enjoy
in of himself at parties. A man that
amt any music in him likes it in his
spouse, and so on. It chimes beautiful,
for they ain'tin each others way. Now,
friendship is the other way: you must like
the same thing in each other and be
friends. A similarity Of tastes, studies,
pursuits and recreations, what they call
congeniai souls;) a topper for a TOPPER a
smoker for a smoker, a horse-racer for a
horse-racer, a prize-fghter for a prize
fighter, and so on. Matrimony likes con-
trasts; friendship seeks its own counter
parts. Sam is only partly right, how
ever.
