Wintering Colts.

A snug shed or stable is best for
wintering colts, provided they are
halter-broke, which they should be
before winter sets in. They vii ei t
almost all sorts of coarse food, but
should have little grain or meal,
say from pint to quart a day,
according to their size and fge.--
They should, if convenient, run out
ps,t of the day. They love to
forage on a cattle dung heap, and to
pick out The waste litter, Let them
have all they want Of it, and it is a
healthy variety for them. A dry
pasture, when the snow is off the
ground, is q good change for them
also.
We have wintercd many colts
liz our farming, and found that moth
ing got through the season easier
than tkey. Their hair becomes
long, an1 sometimes rough. No
matter, for there is.a close fur under
it, and 1t keeps them dry and warm,
and they are all the better in the
spring. Enough to eat, with good
shelter, is all they wart to keep
them healthy and growing. But
they should not run out with the
cattle, as they are liable to get
hooked, While they, in turn, drive
the cattle from their food. Every
one to his own Lind, in the farm
yarl, as in other appropriate pla-
acs.

AGRICULTURAL


We have the following extracts
in a letter from Joseph w. Badger,
a practical engineer and mill-wrlght
of Lake county III this State, who
has had experience 10 erecting SUI
gar mills and boiling sugar in Louis
lana and Florida
He says: "The idea of every
MINIS going in for making his own
sugar or syrup is all nonsense, as
tho who attempt it on small
scale will learn by experience. The
manufacture Of sugar can never be
successfully prosecuted but by a
considerable outlay for buildings and
machinery. The cane requires the
whole season to mature, then it is
required to be rapidly ground (and
we'll ground9 and rapidly evapora.
ted by an experienced boiler. l
care not how many books are read
upon the subject, there are few
Kinks, if may so call them, that |
have never yet seen in any works
upon sugar boiling,
We do not believe sugar making
from the Chinese sugar cane to be
n process so practicable as to make
it common on every eighty acres of
land. But we do believe it within
the power of every farmer to make
his own syrup and considerable for
export, and at cost much less than
that paid for syrups of a like quail
4y now. That our seasons are long
enough to secure sugar maturity
has been proved, and our correspon-
dent should remember that it is not
Southern cane in a Southern climate
and. that this fact mobiles his asser-
tons. 1t is proven that frosts do
not injure its sugar producing quail
ties, but increase the product, and
that the cane properly housed, or
even shocked in the field, will re-
main unchanged a long time. We
think the records of the past ear
disprove many theories based on
experience with the Southern cane
Mr. B. continues, If one indi-
vidual or SO in a county would g.
into the business and go into it con
siderably strong. / fully believe and
know it would be found three times
as, profitable as anything else that
could be embarked In. 1 would say,
put up an engine Of about eight
horse power with a suitable rolling
mill to match, and Boiling house and
curing house in one, with,a train of
small sugar kettles; the whole, if
managed right, could be perhaps put
up for about $500, and with from
twenty-five 10 thirty acres Of good
cane, would more than clear itself
the first season"
Here we agree with Mr.. B. rela-
tive to the probable process which
the manufacture of sugar will resolve
itself Observation-Disclosures of the
character above described.
We should be glad to,know that
some one has embarked in this en-
terprise, and it is our belief that su-
gar making will be done in this
manner for communities, or by UNI
ion of parties interested in its
growth.

HONOR THE GooD.-The true basis OF
distinction among men is not in position

1t is not that which gives US place. but
conduct which makes the solid distinction.
We should think no man above US but fer
his virtues, and no man below us but for
his vices. Entertaining this view; we

SIGNS OF RETURNING BUsINKss.-The
pleasantest intelligence we receive from
the neighboring States, and from the teri
or towns in our own State, is that in rela-
ton 10 the resumption Of work by the va
rious manufacturing establishments that
have been lying idle the past four months.
Many OF the mills which had been work
ing short time have resumed full work.
and many that had been altogether closed
have been again put in running condition
The effect Of the resumption will be imme-
diately felt, not only in the immediate vi
cinity OF the establishments where the cho-
rus Of mirgling anyils and The buzz Of re-
volying wheels are again heard, b1t here
and in other great depots Of commerce
whence The manufacturing districts draw
their supplies Of raw materials. and where
they send their goods to be sold.
The jobbing interests in this city haze
felt severely this spring the effects of thu
suspension Of the mills in the great mann

lour merchants who will be more directly
benefited by their resumption Of work.
There are signs OF rev:ving business in ev
~ direction, but our wholesale dealers
have not in many years, according to th
general reports, had so light trade a
they have experienced the present season
But there is some comfort in KNOWN
that if the times might be better for on
