Urine.

Sir John Senclare, speaking Of the value
Of this fertililing agent, says, "All urine
contains the essential elements Of vegetables
In state of solution. The urine ola horse
being 80 much lighter, would be more val
liable than its dung, II both must be convey
ed any considerable distance. The urine OF
cows or horses, will enrich @ quantity of
earth sufficient to top-dress one English
acre Of grass land and as it would require
about twenty dollars worth of dungto per-
form the same operation, the urine Off co '
or horse, is worth about three dollars per an
mum, allowing two dollars per acre as the
expense of preparing the compost. The nd
vantages Of irrisAting grass lands with COW
urine almost exceeds belief. Mr.. Hardy, Of
Glasgow, who keeps a large dairy in that
town by using cow urine, cuts some small
fields Of grass sir time, ; and the average Of
each uttins is fifteen in length" Ifthis is
all true, farmers should exert their utmost
efforts to economize this substance, and
apply it to their crops with great care. 1t
is undoubtedly, most energetic and eff.
cient fertilizer, and one which, We are
inclined to think. has been allowed to run
greatly to waste.
Mangel wortzel consumes one hundred
and sixty pounds ofcommon salt to the acre.
If it Is not in the soil in theiorm Of chloric
acid and sordium, salt must be eapplied to the
soil, or poor crop will be the result.
Guano contains salts OF ammonia, alkaline
phosphatc,,and other mineral substances
necessary to produce the grain ofwheat, but
is deficient in the elements necessary to form
root and straw.
There arc Eve pounds of pure sulpher in
every 100 pounds ofwool.

Food for tolrLs. Fowls are, Of all birds,
the most easy to feed. Every alimentnry
substance agrees with them, even when bu-
ried in manure; nothing is lost to them ;
they are seen the whole day long incesSantly
busted in scratching, picking up living.
In we'll fed fowls the diaerance will be
seen, not only in the size and flesh Of the
fowls, but in the weight and goodness OF
the eggs; two Of which 90 farther in do

a day, quantity Of grain, generally corn,
and somewhat less than that which they

Fowls, however, are more easily satisfied

general rule, large animals consume more
than small ones. There is as much differ

individual fowls rs there is in animals.
Ithas been found by careful experiments,
that the sorts Of food most easily digssted
by fowls are those Of which they eat the
greatest quantity. They evidently become

The Farm and Garden.

Order upon h!s Fdrm.-lt has been very
correctly said that order or method is the Sc
cret Of success Of many wealthy men Of the
mercantile class. The above being true the
rule is equally applicable to the farming
classes. What We mean by order, is "a
place for everything and everything in its
place." BY everything, we mean all that a
farmer uses in his business. A farmer
should see that every rail or board about
his premises is in its proper place. that his
fences are in condition to prevent the en-
trance OF exit of his own or other peoples
cattle without his consent.
Ihaye known the cultivators Of the soil to
succeed well in maturing crops, but by neg
lecting to keep their fences in order, lose the
most valuable part Of their labors. But
am glad to state that such cases are not fre-
quent in these times. In the next place,
the farmer should not allow his cattle that
are used IN the farm work TO be scattered
indisciminately over his fields, Us much
time is lost in getting them to their places

PoULrRr RAISING - Preparing. Make
them fat. grain fed, plump, fat fowl will
sell for double the pricc per pound of lean
one. A liberal feeding, for few weeks be-
fore killing, will nearly double the weight
and double the price, making quadruple
return for the finishing or food.
Milling. Keep them from bruising them
selves. Secure the wings the instant they
are caught, and tie them behind the back.
Tie the legs together, hang them upon pole,
and then cut of the head with a sharp knife,
Dressing. Pick them dry, taking partic-
ular care not to tear or bruise the flesh. II
