HORSES VERSUS OXEN.

Which il the most profitable team for the
farmer, horses or oxen? The question has
been variously debated. but we have seen
no better statement of both sides of the case
than that given by Thaer, in his Principles
OfAgriculture. He lin substance) says
Horses are capable of all kinds Of farm
labor; thew adapt themselves to every road
and every degree of temperature. When
horses are kept, there is no occasion to select
their particular kind Of labor; they may be
employed in any work, and be attached TO
any vehicle or implement of the farm.
Horses perform all kinds of work expedi-
tiously as we'll as continuously, thus keep
ing those who labor with them more fully
employed than is the case in working with
oxen.
Horses, though less steady atheavy draught
than oxen, have the advantage OF spirited,
rapid motion, enabling them to overcome all
obstacles of short duration, and such Us would
frequently stop oxen.
Oxen. on the contrary, can perform many
kinds of farm labor equally as well as the
horse, and when well fed are capable of en-
during nearly as much fatigue. Many per-
sons consider them better than horses for
ploughing.
Oxen are kept much less expensively-
their first cost is far below that of horse
their harness is also much less costly, and
their food of cheaper character.
Oxen, when well fed and not over-worked,
frequently increase in value thus almost pay
ing the interest on their original cost; horses,
on the contrary, decrease in value with age,
and finally become dead loss to the owners.
Oxen are less liable to accident and dis
ease and produce greater amount of valua-
bic manure than horses.
Another writer goes into heightened COM
parison of the cost of the same work when eX
ecuted by oxen or horses and states the IA
ito of the first to the last named as 32-lO0 to
l-l0-giving almost one-fourth advantage
in the use of horses. This we think altogeth-
er too large-and that the economy in either
case depends upon the work to be done and
the plentifulness or scarcity of appropriate
food and work on the farm.-Count,y Cen
tleman, November IL.

HOW TO BEAT JOE LEWIS.

Harper for January tells the following
sin the earlier days of Virginia, about the
year 1872, when party spirit between Demo
Gratis and Federalists ran very high, particu-
larly in the Loudoun district, unusual excite
ment prevailed in the contest for Congress
between Joseph Lewis, (Federalist) and a'il-
liam Brent (Democrat.) Abraham Thompson
Mason, man of warm friendships, strong
passions, and great courage, took very ac-
tive part in the contest, as an ardent but I'M
prudent friend of Brent. He was constantly
involving himself and others in broils by his
incorporate ZEAL often doing more harm
than good to his cause His brother, John
Thompson Mason, who had withdrawn from
public and professional life, was living in re-
tirement on his estate in the adjoining Coun-
ty of Washington, in Maryland. He was as
devoted Democrat as his brother; but, I'M
like him, was cool, reflective, prudent man.
and withal man of great humOr. Abraham
had great confidence in his Judgment and
wisdom, and in his perplexities as to how Joe
Lewis was to be beaten and the country sored
he bethought himself to consult his brother
in Maryland upon the subject. The east I'M
portance of the matter was made known, and
advice and counsel asked. The Maryland
brother agreed to reflect over the matter, and
give the result in the morning The morning
came, and with it the anxious inquiry if any
scheme had been devised for the defeat of Joe
Lewis? The reply was, Yes, Abraham, |
have it. Go home at once, and come out
yourself for Joe Lewis: and if that don't beat
him. nothing will" of course the remedy
was not resorted to, and Joe Lewis was elec
ted.

How WOVEN BEAR HARDsHIPs IN Kansas

How WOVEN BEAR HARDsHIPS IN KANSAS.
A correspondent writing from Kansas, says:
During our trip, we encountered an In
diana family moving to their new home IN
Kansas. The husband came to this Territory
about a year since and located; and now hay-
ing returned to Indiana for his household
goods, was bringing them to their new West
ern home They were travelling in q wagon,
closely covered, and drawn by two horses
They had been about two months on the way
and since reaching the State Of Missouri had
"camped out" or lodged in their wagon, not
spending a single night under roof. The
wife was genial, apple-faced woman, of
about thirty; and like the children two girls,
one of three, the other of six years. seemed
to enjoy degree of health and vigor very
unusual among American ladies. When we
met, the weather was exceedingly severe; the
ground was covered with six inches of snow,
and the thermometer stood below zero. They
camped near us for one night; and persisted
in lodging in their wagon, though we found 1t
very difficult to keep warm in good log house,
where bed clothing was plenty. In the morn
ing, on going out to the wagon, =! found the
children and the mother both IN excellent
spirits. In reply to my question, whether
they had suffered from the cold, she said, 70
no. we are used to it. The journey has been
rather tedious, but we are almost home now
She looked forward to their rude squattcr
home as cheerfully and hopefully as lift had
been a palace. The hardihood of Western wo-
men is certainly remarkable; it is unquestion-
ably the result of much exercise in the open
mir"
