FEEpINeJC ArTLE-An English writer OBJ
serves that two great points in feeding cattle
are, regularity and particular care of the
weaker individuals. On this last account
there ought to be plenty of trough or rack
room, that too many may not feed together;
in which very common case the weaker are
not only trampled down by the stronger, but
they are worried and become cowed and spir-
itless than which there cannot be more
unfavorable state for thrift besides they are
compelled to shift with the worst of fodder.
This domineering spirit is SO remarkably pre-
valent among horned cattle, that the writer
has hundred times observed the master
beasts running from crib to crib, and absolute
ly negecting their own provender for the
sake of driving the inferior from theirs
This is, much oftener than is suspected, the
the chief reason of that difference in a lot of
beasts after winters keep. 1t is likewise,
he says, very common and very shameful
sight, in a dairy Of COWS to see several of
them gored and wounded in dozen places,
merely from the inattention of the owner and
neglect to coupling the horns Of those that
butt. The weaker animals should be kept
apart; and in crib feeding in the yard, it is
a good method to tie up the master beast at
their meals.
DR., Dean says, there should be more yards
than one to the barn where divers sorts of cat
tie are kept. The sheep should have a yard
by themselves, at least; and the young stock
another, that they may be wholly confined to
such fodder as the farmer can afford them.-

DRY FOOD.

THERE are numerous disadvantages noces-
sarily attending the feeding of neat stock
exclusively on dry food. Horses, oxen,-and
in short, all domestic animals-fed on cut hay
in dry state, obstinately refuse, after time,
to consume all that is given them. They be-
come fastidious, and consequently less healthy
and thrifty in condition than when fed part
ly on moist or succulent food.
The process which experience has demon
strated to be the most judicious and economic
cal, and, at the same time, the best adapted
to promote the several objects contemplated
by the feeder is the following-
A trough, or other suitable vessel of sufii-
cient capacity, is to be provided, and into
which sufhciency of cut oat, rye, or wheat
straw, stalks or hay, is to be put, to furnish
all the animals with single meal. For ev-
cry three animals to be fed, add four quarts
of meal with just water enough to moisten it,
and let it stand for several hours, or if prac.
ticabe, till incipient fermentation has COM
menced, and slight acidity is perceptible.
In this state feed it to your animals and you
will find that not a particle will be refused
by them, and that they will continue in bet
ter condition than when fed exclusively on
any other feed IF desirable, the process of
preparing the food, may be further systema-
tized by having several troughs for mixing
the ingredients. This will enable the feeder
to prepare food in advance of his wants, and
consequently to have feed always ready at
any hour it is wanted. A straw-cutter of the
latest and most improved pattern, should be
found on every farm. 1t will enable the
husbandman to work up to good advantage, a
large amount of material that would other
wise possess no actual value except for ma
nurc. By cutting corn-stalks, tops and
butts, fine, mixing with them a quantity of
roots Or apples chopped into small pieces, or
raspt with rasping machine, and scattering
over them very small quantity of meal of
any kind, together with little salt, very
palatable and nutritious food will be secured,
and on which most animals will winter as
well as upon the best English hay.
Pumpkins and squashes, as we'll as apples
and roots, are often prepared and mixed with
refuse fodder in this way.
But-as we believe, the true way of pre-
pairing feed for farm stock of all kinds is not
yet practiced in the country. We believe
the time will come when steam may be used
$50 that after paying the interest Of the cost
of the fixtures and the fuel a saving of near
ly or quite oac.fcarth of all the hay, roots
and grain may be made, and that the farmer
may yet nave that surplus over and above
what he how. has to sell. Who, among our
enterprising farmers, will commence the ex.
pertinent IN. f. Farmer.

CoUGH IN HoRsEs.-We once had horse
that had bad cold, and coughed so severe
ly that he could be heard half mile. All
sorts Of remedies were proposed-enough, we
should think, to kill any good horse outright.
These remedies were all rejected, (although
some of them might have proved useful and
the following course pursued. The horse was
in the first place very carefully and moderate
ly used so as never to produce perspiration
he was carefully blanketed when the wealth
er was cold, tit was about mid-autumn,] or
when he was in the least degree heated-he
was kept constantly on green and succulent
food, clover, roots, &C., and was supplied
with plenty of the best water at all times
In a few weeks he was perfectly well. 1t is
an old saying that more depends on the nurse
than on the physician, which was verified in
this instance.-Agricuhural Exchange

but the Countess was nowhere to be found.
In vain they searched the chamber and the
adjoining rooms; not trace of her could be
discovered. A courier was at once despatch
ed to Stockholm with an account of this ex-
traordinary occurrence, and there it was
learned that the Countess Steenbock had not
left the capital, but that she had died at pre-
cisely the same moment when she was seen in
the arms of the deceased Queen. An extra
ordinary protocol of this occurrence was I'M
mediately ordered to be taken by the officers
of government and which was countersigned
by all present. This document is still pre-
served in the archives.

The CosT OF BAD HAB1T.-What COM
mon thing it is for people to have some bad
habit Or other, which is worse than useless,
but which they find it very difficult to break
themselves Of
A story is told of man in one of the N.
England States who had such habit, and
who one day rendered himself very ridicu-
lous by it. The habit this gentleman had,
was one of frequently handling his spectaclcs.
He was member of the Legislature of his
State and when he rose to speak, he would
first place his spectacles on his nose, suffer
them to remain there minute Or two, throw
them upward on his forehead, and finally fold
them up and lay them before him on his desk.
One day very important question came
up in the legislature, and the fdgety gentle.
man commenced speech in opposition to the
proposed measure. A friend to the project,
who was somewhat of a wag, determined that
he would spoil the effect Of what the honor
able gentleman had to say. So before the
speaker entered the house, after recess, he
provided himself with dozen pair of spec
tacles
The member commenced his speech with
his usual ability. But few moments elapsed
before he was at work with his spectacles and
finally got. them up on his forehead. At this
juncture,o our friend who stood ready laid anoth-
er pair on the desk before the speaker. These
were taken, and gradually gained place on
his forehead by the side Of the others. A
third, fourth and fifth were disposed of in the
same manner. A smile settled upon the coun-
tenances of the honorable members, which
gradually lighted up in grin, and at last,
when the speaker had warmed up into one Of
his most patriotic and elegant sentences, he
deposited sixth pair with the others, and
there was loud, long peal of laughter from
all parts Of the room. Presidents, clerks
members all joined in the chorus. The speak
er looked around in establishment at this Gu
rious interruption; but raising his hand, h,
grasped his spectacles, and the whole fore,
of the joke rushed upon his mind. He dash
ed the glasses upon the floor, took his ha
and left the hall. The bill was passed by /
triumphant majority, probably in consequence,
Of the genteman's silly and useless habit.

When Queen Ulrike of Sweden was on her
death-bed, her last moments were embittered
by regret at the absence of her favorite, the
Countess of Steenbock, between whom and
the Queen there existed the most tender and
affectionate attachment. Unfortunately, and
by the most singular coincidence, Countess
Steenbock lay dangerously ill, and at too
great distance from the dying queen to be
carried to her presence. After Ulrike had
breathed her last the royal corpse was placed
in an open coffin, upon an elevated frame, in
an apartment Of the palace, brilliantly illu-
minated with wax candles. A detachment
of horse guards were stationed in the ante
chamber as funeral watch. During the
forenoon the outside door of the ante-cham-
Der opened, and the Countess Steenbock APP
peared in deep grief The soldiers of the guard

The officers were surprised at her unexpected
arrival, and attributing her silence to the in
tensity of her grief, conducted her to the side
of the corpse, and then retired, leaving her
alone, not choosing to disturb the expression
OF her emotion. The officers waited outside
for considerable time, and the Countess not
yet returning. they feared some accident had
be'alleu her. The highest officer in rank now
opened the door, but Immediately fell back in
the utmost CONSERVATION. The other officers
present then FASTENED into the room, and
there beheld the Queen standing upright in
her coffin, and tenderly embracing the Coun.

and soldiers of the guard. Presently the ap.

THE FARMERS SONG.

Composed by j. G, SAKE, Esq, and arran
ed to music by Prof I. w. WooD, and sung
"The Amphions," at the late Sheep Shearil
Festival, in Sudbury, Vermont
Have you ever heard of the farmers,
Who live among the hills,
Where every mans sovereign,
And owns the land he tils
Where all the girls are beautiful
And all the boys are strong
Oh! tits my delight of summers night,
To sing the farmers Song.
IT'S here the tall and manly
"Green Mountain" boys seen,
$50 called because the Mountains,
And not the Boys, are green)
They'll always fight to win the right,
Or to resist the wrong:
Oh! tits my delight &c.
And here the best and fairest
OF Yankee girls are caught,
With every grace and form of face,
That eer a lover sought
And every art to win his heart,
And hold 1t long and strong:
Oh its my delight, &C.
IT'S here the morgan" horses,
And "Black Hawks" steeds abound;
For grace and beauty, strength and speed,
Their equals can't be found;
They always "go it' feety,
They always =" come it" strong
Oh tits my delight, &c.
And here the true Merinoes,
or pure imported stock,
Are often seen to range the green,
In many noble flock;
Their forms are large and beautiful
Their wool Is fine and long
Oh tits my delight, &c.
You've often read of the wonders,
or ancient Rome and Greace,
OF Jason's expedition,
To get the golden fleece
Alonzo's got the fleece away,
And brought the sheep aong
Oh tits my delight, &c.
Oh here's success to Bingham
And all true shepherd men
May heaven keep himself and sheep,
Till shearing comes again
And then may we be there to see,
And help the sport along;
Oh it's my delight, &c.
And now health to the shearers,
And many joyous years
Whose hands with will and ready skill,
Propel the busy shears
With hearts sincere and conscience clear,
Our voices loud and strong,
Oh Wen take delight from morn to night,
To sing the shearer's song. "a.
