too good to be lost. Sir. 4 called on
one Of our farmers and asked HIM the
price of oats. and was informed that they
were worth thirty FIVE cents per bushcl-
He agreed TO pay forty cents on condition
that he should be permitted to tramp
them in the half bushel. To secure the
bargain he paid for twelve bushels and
the next day took his wagon and went Of
ter them. The farmer filled the half
bushel, after which Mr.. \. got in and gave

the latter denotes good room for play OF

of the hog is by no means point to be

cription OF head most likely to promise
or rather to be concomitant of high breed
ing, is not one carrying heavy bone, not
too fat on the forehead, or possessing toe
long a snout: the snout should be short
and the forehead rather convex, curving
upward; and the ear should be, while
