Ihavs been much interested lately, in reading
the articles in your columns on the subject OF
wintering and feeding cattle. My own practice
differing somewhat from your correspon dents,
give it to you for what 1t 10 worth, and no more.
Your excellent Geneva correspondent, John
Johnston, gives q decided preference to yard
feeding, with ample shedding, over stable stall
feeding, for the reason ch fly of economy labor
aud this. fortified by his long experience and suc-
cess, entities his opinion to great weight. do
not propose to oentrovert this opinion but ra, hsr
to commend bis system of ample shedding and
warm bedding 10 all who aspire TO be good far
Ny own experience, although not provided with
as extensive and comfortable sheds and bedding z
as Mr.. J. recommends, 10 the reverse Of bis. For
several years tried to fatten cattle in the yard,
the cattle going under sheds, considerably less,
however, than thirty.s sig feet wids,) and roaming
the yard at pleasure, with free access to water
but the result was not satisfactory. / do not
aver that every other prerequisite, such as regu-
arity In feeding, elcte attention to appetite and

Afterwards he attempted TO buyup all the bee

was defeated by New Yotk and Pniladelphis

and went to ST. Louis ct the time Fremont arr
we'd, beng sent BY a'party of beef contractors al
$500 per month. In short tims he was abandon.

THE FROG.

OF all the funniest things that live,
In woodland, marsh, or bog, ia.
That creep the ground, or fly the air,
The funniest is the frogi
The fiog--the scientifcest
or Natures handy-wort;
The frog that neither walks or runs,
Bat "goes ip' with jerk.
With pants and coat of tottle-greep,
Ayellow fancy vest,
He p,unees into mud and m're
Antn his Sundays best. ,-
When he sits down he's standing up
tAs Paddy aninn once eaicD p
And, for convenience sake, he wears
His eyes a.op his head.
Tou zee him sitting on log,
Above the "vasty deep;"
Tou feel Inclined to say-"Old cha7,
Just lcok before you lespl7
You raise your cane to hit him On
His uglJ-,o king mug, ....
But ere you get It half way up
Adown he goes-''Ker-chug."
