age of one hundred and thirty-two.-
All the travellers who chanced to call
at the neighboring inn of Turiff were
uniformly directed by the landlady.

used to say, "the auldest man i Banff-

To MEASURE Hay IN Mows.--The
editor of the New Jersey Farnsei' says
that he has proved the following rule
for finding the number of tuns Of hay
in a givon bulk
Take a NOV Of II or 10 feet in
depth, and which has been filed with
hay, as it was draws from the field, and
has been lying till spring, and measure
the length, breadth, and hight, in feet.
Multiply them to get the cnbical cons
tents. For instance: The length IS
20 feet, breadth 40 feet, and hight 16
feet; 90 times 40 makes S00,. InpltipIi-
ed by is equal to 1880 cubic feets
which being divided by 700, the nam-
Der of feet that make tun of 1000
pounds will give Is tuns, 200 pounds.
The top of a NOW, say one-third, We
rate at 500 feet to hetun; the middle.
700 feet; and the bottom Of the now
at 60O-so the whole bulk would ave-
rage 700 feet, if the NOV is II or IS
feet deep; butif only or G feet deep,
count 800 feet for tun, andso ae-
cordingly with other bulks.

Fern! Fanny is woman. For that

be better, she might be worse. She
has been both oyer-praised and over
abused, and those who have abused her
worse have initiated and copied her

VENTILLATISG HAY-STAcKs-The-
British farmers have method Of veh1
tiIlating their hay, Oat, and barley
stacks which we may frequently adopt
with advantage; and in stacking corn
stalks it would be always benefcial.E
They fill large bag, say 81 feet high
and 90 inches in diameter, with straw,
and place it vertically in the center Of
the stack, putting the barley, oats or
hay, whichever it may happen to be,
around it. As the stack rises, they lift
the sack, and so on to thetop. In this
way there is chimney formed in the
center Of the rick or bay, into which
the steam or gases generated find their
way, and escape readily.

PASTURE LANDS. - Remove the
stumps, stones, and brush from your
pasture ranges, and top-dress them
with mixture Of ashes, nitr;lt ofsoda,
muriate of lime, gypsum, and guano.
IF the soil has become thin and unprO-
ductive, plow in June or September,
harrow to fine tilth, and SOW on a
mixture Of red-top, brown-top, white
clover, red clover, and Timothy seed.
In this way exhausted pastures may
be speedily regenerated, and made to
produce a luxuriant vegetation. A
good pasture is a valuable acquisition
to every good farmer.
