ment in this branch OF farming, still
greater is necessary, if the number
of animals is to keep pace with the
increase of population. From the
U. ). census returns Of 1850, we
learn that tho increase of cattle to
supply food was less than IS per
per cent, and the increase Of popu-
lation more than 35 per cent. Our
beef eating propen4ities are increas.
ing, and our exporting propensities
also. No wonder that provisions
rule higher and higher when we
have these three things to contend
with. The raising OF stock is one OF
the most pleasant duties Of sgricul.
ture, and there is little danger OF
OVERRIDING it. A stock farm is more
easily managed shan = grain farm
The most spirited rural sight we ev.
er witnessed was herd Of thrifty
yearllngs grazing on a pasture OF
the Empire State. We cannot i'm
agine a more imposing scene than
tho thousands of animals that com.
posed the flocks and herds of the an
clients. Their modes of life were
such, that flesh and milk were their
chief subsistence. Beef must have
been cheaper than potatoes, or they
would never have pulled up stakes
so often.

struck him, however, Of trying the

In the city ot London. coal is sent
to consumers in sacks, containing
one hundred pounds each. These
are loaded on large carts drawn BY
enormous horses, with scales and
weights TO each cart, and, If desired
by the purchaser, the sack is weigh
ed by the driver. When the homes,
ty OF the coal merchant and the in
tegrity ot the driver are well estab-
lished, the weighing of the sack is
seldom required. And in the pur.
chase OF a csrt.losd of sacks, some
three or four OF them, taken pro,nis.
cuously, are tested by the scales, and
il found correct, the weighing OF the
remainder of the load ID dispensed
with. This mode of buying and
selling coal is tho result OF many
years experience in the vast city OF
London, and is better calculated to
do Justice to the honest dealer and
the consumer than any plan we
have seen in practice or proposed in
this country.
