WARM FEED.-A correspondent of the
New England Farmer gave the following
facts relative to the management of one
of his cows, aud its results:
Twill give your readers my mode
of feeding one of my COWS. l purchased
her last November, when she gave four
quarts Of milk a day / commenced
feeding her with cut hay. two quarts Of
shorts aud carrots, wet with cold water.
twice day for one month. At the end
of that time she had not increased in her
milk at all. then commenced wetting
the same amount of feed with boiling
water, and at the end Of the second
month she gave regularly six quarts pen
day, which / thought a fair gain. =
When a person needs considerable milk
and keeps but one COW, / would recon-
mend trial of this mode of feeding"

economy also in the seed--li bushels to the
acre being sufficient when drilled in. The
guage is complete and reliable for both Wheat
and Guano--any desired quantity of grain
being sown, and any quantity of Guano from
% to 300 lbs. to the acre.
This Drill is greatly improved since last
year. India Rubber tubes being used in place of
leather; the Guano slide is mach heavier, and
its working reliable, and the scraping spade so
secured as to ensure clean working withoutli-
ability to pack the Guano. It's now altogeth-

BENEFITS OF DRAINING. Prof. Nor
on thus describes the benefits of drain
ing wet lands, an operation too much
neglected among us
'"When drain is made and covered,
(for | always mean here covered drains)
the water which falls upon the ground
does not remain to stagnatc, and does
not run away over the surface, washing
away the best of the soil, but sinks grad
ually down, yielding to the plants any
fertilizing matter which it may contain,
and often washing out some hurtful sub
stances; as it descends, air, and conse-
quently warmth follow it. Under these
new infuences the proper decomposition
and preparations Of COMPOUNDS fit for
the sustenance of plants go on, tho soil
is warm aud sufficiently dry, and plants
flourish which formerly never grew on
it TO perfection, if at all. " is curl
Gus fact too that such soils resist drought
better than ever before, The reason is.
that the plants are able to send their
roots much farther down then, in, search
of food. without ever finding anything
hurtful. Every part being penetrated
with air, and consequently dryer and
lighter, these soils do not bake in sum-
mer. but remain mellow and porous. -
Such effect cannot, in its full extent, be
looked for in stiff clay, during the first
season; the change must be gradual;
but it is sure"

; TnYSTABLE. -"The merciful man is
mercif I'll to the beast" That horses are
-oftontery numerically treated by their
own$ is generally admitted, but our
crittsm is for the most part confined to
theFuelty with which they are over
woked and half starved The import
apt of 1udicious attention to the sta
bt is seldom considered The injuries
resulting to the eyes aud feet of horses,
from neglect in this respect are almost
incalculable. Opthalmia is ascribed, in
nine cases out of ten, to accident, or
some mysterious weakness, y and there
are various absurd theories to account
for diseases of the hoof and legs; and
yet, we venture to say, that in major
ity of instances, those diseases are direct
ly induced by the dark and dirty stalls
to which they are confined.
The eye of the horse is as tender as
that of a man. What wonder isit then,
that when this noble animal is cooped up
for days at time in dungeon, with a
rack full of dust at his nose, he comes
out into the glare of day with an eye
that cannot bear the light of sun, or
that he starts in alarm at overy object
before him? a child will do the same
In strong light to which the eye is I'M
accustomed, nothing can be distinctly
seen, and the imagination, whether Of
the child Or of the horse, invests every
thing with the mysterious and terrible.
A distinguished Veterinary Surgeon
ascrihes those inhamatory diseases of the
feet Of the horse, which render so many
fine animals useless for life, to the acou-
mutations of hot manures IL their stalls,
and the caustic nature Of the ammonial
vapor which it exhales There eau be
little doubt of the truth of this. suggest
ion. The hoof buried for many days and
many nights in hot bed, must necessa-
rily suffer from the heat and the irritati-
on of the ammonia, and it would be sur
prlsing if they were not injured.
In view ofthcse obvious Considerations,
we would urge our farming friends, and
all others whe keep valuable horses upon
their premises the importance OF giving
them aplenty oflightin their stables, and
of removing from the stalls carefully and
regularly the manure that is apt to accu-

This sort of attention will certainly pay
well for the trouble it may cost.

BUCKEYE CLOTHES WASHER.

Hon. CHAs MASON, the Commissioner of
Patents, has very recently said the principle on
which this Washing Machine is constructed,
is the only one for effective and thorough wash
ing of all the hundreds in the Patent Office.
This is high recommendation, but the praises
lavished upon these machines by the tens of
thousand persons using them in Ohio, KEN
lucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana,
Michigan, North Carolina Virginia, Pennsyl-
yania, New York and other Eastern and North
ern States, are ofmuch greater value,
Ten or a dozen shirts, or their equivalent in
other clothes, may be washed in from three to
six minutes according to the state of the clothes
and degree of preparation without as much
injury to them as in the ordinary washing by
hand--a button or hook and eye being rarely
if ever broken off-the process being nearer to
the working by band than any other. II is
very substantial and durable-simple in con-
struction and easy TO work, and has attached
to it an admirably working and efficient
