TO its proper depth. The work is thus rapidly
and cheaply done-how durable the fence is
we cannot say.
We started on our sketch with the state
ment OF a general proposition, viz: That too
much land engenders bad farming. We think
that MIR. Sullivant will agree with us, that his
10000 acre farm would be much more thor
oughly titled if it were in the hands of a hun
dred farmers, than now, that it is managed by
one. The great collection of plows, moving
machines, and other tools, which lie expose
to the weather. would not be pleasing to the
eye Of a Scotch farmer, nor would the enor
nous hurriedly titled fields satisfy his ideas of
propriety while the very fact that large
nursery of peach trees was overgrown with
grass and the trees all dead, is proof enough,
that, however diligent man may be, he can
not, with limited supplies of laboring hands,
give full attention to every department of an
estat Of such princely dimensions as the one
of which we have attempted to give some idea
to our readers.

LITERARY APPREcIATIoN "A H..
erary gentleman relates, that after
leaving a paper of which he was the
editor, and returning on a visit, be
wrote a leader Tor the new editor,and
he really thought it good better
than he had written for months. -
Next day he meta old acquaintance
with paper in his hand. 'Ah,'
said BE-, sthis paper is but miserable
thing now-nothing like what it was
when you had it'--and pointing
TO the article he had written, he con-
tinued: Look, for Instance, at that

up early in March. to get them lit

coming in the spring, had two quarts
of corn meal each per day, and they

The milk being sold daily, gave an
excellent opportunity for testing the

Selecting CaITcs for Rearing

Use judgment ia selecting such
heller calves rs are TO be reared. Se-
lsct only those whose mothers ale
good mixers, whose sires have come
from good milking stock; at the same
time, the calf itself should have
those characteristics that indicate an
aptitude TO develope good milking
qualities. viz: small! fac head, rather
long in me muzzls, bright long body
large headquarters. set wide behind,
soft skin, fine hair 1.-The color OF
which is immaterial-aDd above all
the milk mirror OF udder veins, should
be large and well developed.

ers had better be left TO thcse who

attention to it, and procure the best
animals to begin with. II would be

1t is too often the case that AMI
