CORN AND COB MEAL.

The grinding of corn and cobs together which
we have heard ridiculed very much BY some,
| formerly, has no,s breome an every day ocenF-
itnce, farmers being convinced that the cob
contains too much nutrimtnt to BE- thrown
away.
Our experience heretofore in regard to lis use
IS tins that those animals that chew the cnd it
is most excellent prorender, but for those that
do not It is not so valuable. Thus, iors oxen,
COW and sheep, it is a capital feed These am
inals, after what they swallow IN the marm at
called the first stomach or pauuch, have the
faculty OF throwing it up again in small portions
called cnd, and chewing il over in leisurey
manner until IT is ground very fine, and then
alter being thus thoroughly mingled with the
the saliva, swallowing il again into another sto-
mach, where all lis nutritive matter is extract
ed by the proper organs located for that pur-
pose.
Fhe horse and the hog having no such or
gans to re-chew, do not derive so much benefit
from the ground cob, as the animals above nam
ed.
Hens derive more benefit from corn md cob
meal, than they do from meal alone. In fowls
OF this class there is an apparatus analogous to
animals that chew the cud.
FIRST they take dry food into their crops,
here it brcomes soaked as If il were in a warm
vat, from this II passes into the gizzard, which,
furnished with gravel stones, acts the part of
grinding fine, bv aid OF the strong muscles OF
that organ, whatever passes into it, Here tht'
PARTICLES OF the cob meal, thoroughly palverizrd
and magled with the gastric juices, become DIS
solved, and form nutrition for the body.
We do not mean to say that corn and cob meal
is not good proveader for horses and hogs, but
that they do not derive SO much benefit from
pound for pound. or bushel for bushe, as oxen,
cows, &c. do.--jiaine Farmer

Best Method Of Flowing.

Good Flowing is one OF the first requisites of
good tiiage, and thAold adage is correct 'splow
deep while susgard Sleeps" But the art of
ploWlng IS not 50 easy, as many have Supposed.
IT requires long practice, true eye, and steady
hand the first, that the iurrow may be cut true
and even: thu last the plow may not swrrvr
from side to side, with an occasional slip out
making what is called baIk

lands or beds of from eight 10 twelvs PAGES in
width. BY this method. we have the so-callrd
land iurrows as drains to carry off the suPerHu-
ous water In plowing sandy or light soils,
perhaps the best way is 10 commence in the
middle Of the field, by plowing three or four
rods square, and then pIowing around it, turn
ing to the right with right hand plow, or
to the LEFT with a left hand one as the case may
be. BY so doing, YOU Will not tread down the
newly plowed land.
BY plowing light soils in the above manner,
you will have the surface even, with no waste
land, or land furrows, as in heavy soils.
Never plow heavy, or clay soils when wet.
as it is labor in vain. Better let your team be-
idle. There will be nothing lost, for, if you sow
or plant in the mud, you need moi expect crop.
Watch your time, be ready, and the moment
that your land is dry, in with your oats, corn
and potatoes. Pay no attention 10 the moon,
whether it is new or tnll. il your land is well
plowed, manured, and lloed, our word the moon

There was rumbling explosion ice, water, captain
and spray, ascending into halo Of glory towards the
zenith. The captain, having ssgone up like rocket,
followed out the metaphor, and .scame down like the
stick, fortunately floating like il, and struck ont for
shore. When it was discovered that he not in
Jured, the crowd who had witnessed his pyrotechncs
gave three cheers for the captain and his petard,
which the former gracefully acknowledged.

Lost in The Weeds.

On the 9th of March last, man bv the
name Of Zachariah Brotzman, residing in Ham
ilton township, Monroe County, left home to
visit his son-in-law at Hpzel Creek, near White
Haven. When he left home he took with him
piece Of bread, pickle, and a few apples.-
He reached Hickory Run just before night
Here he had to cross a woods about four miles
in length, in order TO reach the State Road that
leads from White Haven to John Mrrwne'S 5
tavern. In this woods he lost his wav, and
wandered about one hundred hours The wea-
ther was extremely cold, and the ground COW
cred with snow. He eventually reached the
residence Of Mr.. Jacob Crouze, on Pool g. He
was unable at first TO make known his situation
to tho family, being silfened with the cold, and
prosirated from 50 long continued wandering
and privation. His feet. hands and ears We're
badly frozen, but we are informed that he will
suffer no other injury than the loss of some Of
his toes. He is about 6fty years of age, and is
represented as man Of strictly temperate hab-
its. To this latter fact may be attributed his
miraculous escape from prrishing. Carbon De-

THREE MlLL TAx.-The Senate, on Friday,
says the Harrisburg Patriot, passed an act re-
peaing the three mill tax, paid by the Penn
syvania Railroad on coal and lumber. This is
an ominous MEASURE, the end of which is not
yet. If the act becomes law, land we are in
clined to think it willy it will deprive the com
monweal:h of considerable revenue, besides
rendering the State works less productive
What is lost 10 the people, however, IS gained
by corporation, or rather, by some Of the Off
Gers of the company, and a few of their ad-
uncts.-This is the entering wedge to the en-
tire repeal ofthe tonnage fax, and the sacrifice
of the Public Works. The next act, we pre-
sumo, will be a repeal of the Constitution.
