prolific sources Of disease in the poultry

and cold is the principal cause Of loss OF the
young Of all kinds Of domestic fowls, inclu

wind and rain found their why to broods

In rearing fowls for the market, the early
treatment Of chickens is Of the highest I'M
portanco; they should be warmly sheltered
and housed, and moreover fed most literally
at very short intervals. Ifa there is check

becomes set, and stunted growth is the IN
evitable result. 49,
With good and abundant feeding, and
the advantage Of free run, in favorable
weather, Dorkans will become fit for the
purpose Of fatening at the age Of three to
four months in summer, and four to five or
six in winter. In order to be in the highest
perfection, fowls must be killed before they

BEANS WITH INDIAN CORN.

Mr. EDITOR As a general rule, l am
not in favor Of" mixed husbandry, but
there are few rules in husbandry, which do
not admit ofeIceptions. Ithas long been an
undecided question, whether beans planted
with Indian corn, are an actual injury to
the crop. have always supposed they were
not, but until the past season, had taken no
pains to ascertain by experiment. Last
year, had piece Of corn on the south
side of a hill, ofrather gentle descent, and rs
it presenteda favorableopportunity, deter
mined to make the trial. There were fifty
rows Of thirty.six hills each, in the piece.
Commencing on one side, Icounted otfeight
rows, and planted the ninth, tenth, eleventh
and twelfth to corn and beans, not ,rih corn,
but about six inches one side. Eight more
rows were then counted of, and the next
four planted in the same way; the remain
der Of the entire piece was planted to corn
alone.
At harvest, the FIRST four rows, having the
beans in them, were cut and weighed, and
then the four rows Immediately contiguous
on either side were cut and weighed. The
same course was pursued in reference to the
other rows, and the rows nearest them on
either hand, and the result was that no
perceptible difference existed in the amount
of corn produced by the rows having beans
in the hills, and that Of the rows having
none. The soil throughout the piece was
as nearly Of the same quality rs it well
could be, and the management Of the entire
piece was in every respect the same. The
beans madea very good crop, were well filed,
plump and fair, and the corn also good.
The manure used was short muck, one show
elfull to the hill. The crop was hoed three
times, and gill Of plaster applied to the
hill at second hoeing. IL is probable that
as different vegetables require a different
specific aliment, the bean finds enough Of its
appropriate food in the soil without at all
infringing upon that which is required for
the support Of the corn plant, and thus both
grow and flourish on the same soil without
interfering with each others rights. There
may BE- other and more philosophical eI.
plantations, but this satisfies me.

Roors.-rarmers, cultivate more roots
Do not delay preparations for this important
crop. You can soon increase your ability
TO feed double the amount Of stock you now
feed (; this win double the manure, and the
manure win double your future crops. An
acre, with 20 loads Of manure, and well
cultivated, viii give two tons Of hay, rs ON
average. Call il worth $40; it WIN cost
$5 to harvest it. Another acre, with same
amount Of manure, viii give 500 bushels Of
