Inrsu FLAx.-It has long been a mat

of ireland that the production OF flax Is :,
quite inadequate to the requirements OF
of tho market, Judgiug from the present
position Of the flax culture in the conntry
the complaint seems to be more than
ever iuStiiiable. According to the AN, AN
nnal report Of the Belfast Linen Ciress0r,
the breath of land under flax in, Ireland
in 1860 was l2S, $40 acres, against loo,
SIG acres or about q per cent. Notwl,h
standing. however, this decrease ~ tn,
area cultivated, it is generally anticipated
that the yield Of 1850 will prove quite
equal TO that Of 1859. The year 1851
closed with higher prices for flax tha,
were current at the opening, caused
probably, by an expectation Of improve,
demand arising from the Of the French
treaty.

How TO DETERMINE THE HEIdHr COLT
WILL ATTAIN WHEN FcLL GRowS.--Mr
J. r. Martin, Of Lexington, Ky. gives
out the following upon tais point;
can tell you how any man may know,
within half an inch, the height a colt VIII
attain TO when full grown. When the
colt gets to be three weeks old, or as
soon as it is perfectly Strengthened IN ITS
limbs, measure from the edge OF the han
on the hoofs to the middle OF the first
Joint, and for every inch, it will grow tc
the height of hand of fourteen inches
when its growth is matured. Thus, II
this distance be found sixteen inches, II
will make horse sixteen hands high
By this means man may know some
thing Of what sort of a horse, with proper
care, he is to expect from his colt. Three
wears ago | bought two very shabh,
looking colts for $40 each, and sold then
recently for $500. So much for knowing
how to guess property at colt.
