from the fact that, for years before became

past there has been much excitement Occasioned
by the alarm of diseased dogs, and many valuable
dogs have been destroyed in consequences. These
animals liable to a variety of complaints, but
when they become sick at all, they condemned
rabid, when perhaps such disease is the mat

much experience, and those who have valuable
dogs would do wall to consult me before they des-

THE NAN WHO DOSENT

4 man who Dosen't Mind is the most tor
tured of all the martyrs of society. He is
constantly exposed to trials and prirations--
Like Ixons wheel, his life is one continued
round Of proftless excrtion--proftless, at least,
so far as concerns himself. Directly it is
found o,ft that he Dosen't Mind, every body
takes advantage of the fortunate discovery
His tilpe aud he are instantly at everybody S
mercy and no one ever dreams of being mcrc-
full to either. He gets imposed upon right
and left, in person and in purse. Borcs both
CT him perpetualiy, and have no fears of being
kicked. The renlotcst of relations act towards
him as though they claimed the closest consan-
guinity, and thereby were entitled to be worse
plaques than those of Egypt to him. Almost
perfect strangers play the part of dearest
friends. and use the privilege of dearest friend
ship TO drop in on him at any time. AS for
needy visitors, he has them thick thieves, and
few leave him without making an attempt up
on his pocket Poor friends unboson their
family misfortunes to him and do their best to
make him miserable by the story of their sor-
rows. Yet of all tf1cst pests and plaques, none
have the least compunction or compassion in
their p!agnings. However thy may poster

BARK LICE ON TRa APPkx

A. 6. Hanford, Of Waukesha, Wisconsin.
has been successful with mixture Of equal
parts OF tar and linseed oil applied warm, NOT
hot, early in spring, to the bark. This mixture
does not continue soft and spread over the sur
face and close the pores so as to kill the tree,
as grease would do; but forms simply var
nish which soon becomes hard, and when the
tree appears in leaf and begins to grow, this
varnish cracks and peals off, carrying the bark
lice with it, and leaving the bark fresh and
smooth. DR. Fitch in his Treatise OH Insects,
mentions another remedy which he considers
very efficacfous, prepared as follows Leaf to-
bacco is boiled in a strong ley until reduced 70
an impalpable pulp, and this is then mixed
with soft soaP (which has been made cold, and
not boiled,) the whole mixture becoming of the
consistence of thin paint this, when applied,
does not easily wash from the tree, as ley toba-
co water, &c, would alone. One application
with the brush to every part will protect trees
two years-a young orchard of $50 trees fe:
quiring two men every fortnight TO go over
every part, brateh and twig; through the or
chsrd. The trees grew thrifty, and were per
fectly free from lice, while others in every d.
rection were dying from their attacks. Quas-
sia, soda wash, &c, have been strongly recon-
mendcd, but are much less efficient t.-Rurai

SMALL FARMS I'm BELGIUM.

The author of Outlines of Flemish Hus-
bantlry, says that near Alost he met with one
of the smallest farms which will maintain a
family without other work-it was barely five
acres The house was much larger than such
an occupation warranted but il was ar old
farm house, and the land had been divided in
to small holdings, leaving five acres to go with
the house. There was small orchard of
about q quarter of an acre, in which there
were some thriving apple and plum trees
The grass under these trees was good, and the
only COW WHICH the man had was led by the
wife to Craze there for short time every day.
apparently more to give her exercise than for
the food she could pick up. The grass seemed
to have been cut for her in another part
This COW had cost $40, and the man regretted
thai he had not the means to purchase sec
ond, as he could have maintained two very
well.
Half of the land was in wheat, the other
half in clover, flax and potatoes so that the
clover did not recur oflener than every sixth
year, the flax and potatoes in nine. As soon
as the wheat was rearcd he began to hack the
stubble about four inches deep with heavy
hoe, and as fast as he got piece done it Wa:
soHn with turmps, after having some of thu
contents of the liquid manure tank spread
\ over it--for, suNlN Us the forrn WAS, " had a
reservoir for this precious manure. Thus 1
considerable portion of the wheat stubbe was
soon covered with Young turnips Of quick
growing sort, which, if sown in the beginning
or middle of August were fit to pull in No
vember or December and were stored in the
cellar for winter use. There was small patch
of Camene, which was sown less for the seet
than for the stems, of which he made broomC
in his leisure hours in winter But these hour>
| could be but few, and only when snow covered
the ground, and prevented him from digging
and trenching, which was his almost constan
employment; for the whole five acres had t.
be dug in the course of the year, and AS nlacl
of it as possible had to be trenched, that is
dug two spades deep and the soil reversed.
The land being stiff loan, of goot
depth, was much improved by frequent stir
ring and deep cnlture. The milk, potatoe
and other vegetables, with little pork, fe
the family. Pigs were fed on the refuse Q
t the food which was given to the COW, and
, little grain and roots. Most of the wheat an
} oil of the flax was sold to pay the rent an
= household expenses. The rent was about IS
] year. without any rates, tithes or taxes
r Constant labor kept the man in good healt
and his wife was not idle. They had two {
three young children, one at the breast bu
: except the wish for another COW, they SCENE
n to be content with their lot, and had no gret
/ fears for the future. They had no parish fur
+ to fall back upon, not even union-house ; b,
e had they come to want by unforeseen circuI
e stances, they would have found the hand
private charity ready TO relieve them.
