What Stock should We Have !

Not any kind, gotten at random: but this
is the way we get our stock; and hence we
have a miserable collection. With a title
trouble, we can get almost any kind we wish.
But what kind of stock should we have?
That depends wholly for what we want them.
If for mixers, the Attorneys are the best.
The old native s.ock of the country is also
good. For working cattle, there is of course
nothing equal to the Devons. For beef, we
know the heavy quartered Durhams are
just what is wanted.
For wool, Spanish Merino is the thing;
and for mutton, the South Down or Leices-
ter.
For horses, there is the Morgan, which
will answer all purposes, except heavy
draught. For light, airy teams, the Mes
sengers are good; and the Black Hawks for
mettle.
A little trouble, a little expense, will set
US on the right way Valley Farmer.

TranspIanting.

This is generally bungliugly done, and
almost always hurtfully to the tree. The
process in itself, however, is not hurtful
The change is rather an advantage, so far as
the mere change is concerned. But why il
is, we do not know.
To set out tree properly, is to set it as
near as it grew in the nursery as possible
To this end, give the ground (hole) the gen
OrAl forTl of the roots. If the ends of the
roots e-tend downward. make a cone in the
ground if the roots are fiat or horizontal,
have ,he bottom. of the hole level. Then
Appl' rich, mellow soil-never manure
NV N less rank manure from the barn yard
and pack well, as solid as you can with
out iniuring the roots; that is, without
tearing or -bruising them. Let your ground
and your packing soil be neither too dry MOI
too moist: especially avoidwet.
You now have your roots in a natural posi-
ton, in rich, mellow, moist soil. and there
IS nothing to hinder an immediate growth

Care of Harness.

T, Oliver Ayres. practical harness ma
ker, Kent Co., Del, contributes to the
American Agriculturist the following sug-
3 gestions: Harness should be kept hung up
on wooden pegs in clean dry room with
good plank floor, so that it may be free
from dampness. When soiled. it should be
washed with CASTLE soap suds. Harness
that Is in constant use needs oiling four
times a year; if only occasionally brought
out. as carriage harness, ETC., twice a year
viii be safieient, if the washing he not neg
lscted.
D. ''To oil harness. separate all the pieces. and
lay them in water until thoroughly wet
through. Then wash them clean, and allow
them to dry sufficiently. To know when
they are in good condition for oiling, bend g
strsp, and if the water does not ooze out, il
is dry enough. Train oil (wbale oily is
sometimes used. but meats foot oil is much
= better. Mix with it little lampbIack, and
with brush apply it on both sides of the
straps. About six hours after oiliug, wash
the Whole with CASTLE soap aud warm water,
let them dry, rub well with . wooden cloth,
aad buckle them together

Fence Posts.

Taking the vast extent ofour country into
consideration, an incalculable expense is in :
Cured every spring in the putting up Of
new fences and repairing of old ones. 1t
has been found that one great cause of this
trouble and expense is the rapid decay OF
those parts of timber fence posts that are
inserted in the ground. Fences would last
three times longer than they usually do,
could those parts that are covered in the
earth be so treated as to render them as
durable as those parts that are exposed above
ground. A great saving would therefore
Be affected by any simple method of treat
msnt to prevent rot in fence posts. This
may be effected in two ways. One, by
boiling the feet of fence posts in coal tar;
the other, by chsrring them. AS few farmers
can obtain coal tar, the latter mode is the
most convenient for them to practice.
About eighteen inches in length of the foot
OF each post should be charred to the depth
Of one-third of an inch. 1t is we'll known
that charcoal is a very fixed substance. 1t
will scarcely change its condition by ex-
posure TO the natural elements, and it there
fore forms an almost indestructible coating
tothe interior timber of posts.

To keep Birds from Corn.


A correspondent at Wilmington, Del,
directs to put bushel of corn into hall
hogshead or other convenient vessel, and set
itin the sun, or where it will be warmed
Pour over it half pint of gas tar or pint
of common tar. and mix well until every
kernel is smeared. Then stir in ashes, fine
lime, or plaster, until the grains are seps-
rated, and spread it out to dry. Without
regard to the birds, it is generally we'll to
smear the corn with tar, dissolved in from
four to Eve times it's bulk in warm water,
and dry it off with fresh slaked lime. This
kills smut; the tar is good fertilizer itself;
and the lime fits some of the soil to nourish
the young plants. Birds will not eat it,
but generally they are not satisfied without
pulling up the kernels TO find out whether
they are tarred or not.-ED. -American

Carrots for Horses.

In some places carrots for horses, is no.
torious. We have seen enough of this root
to know that it is generally beneficial.
From what experiments we have tried and
seen tried, we must give the preference to
carrots over other roots for horses and colts:
not indeed as main reliance-there is Rot
enough of strength or muscle producing
property in any root to warrant this. But
peck of carrots day to horse, we are
persuaded is an advantage: we think the
root cannot be better used. For mich COWS,
we are less in favor of carrots, as they i'm
part their flavor to butter, though they also
impart their color, which is an advantage.
Carrots for horses, has long been our motto.
1t is our opinion still. And there is little
difficulty in raising them. Early planting,
good soil, and clean cultivation Valley

The LONE SrAR.-The Washington

the head Of absurd Rumors," says that
there is a rumor in that State that Texas
was about to be cut off from the COnfede-
tate States, hoist the Lone Star, and seek
refuge under some foreign nation. The
editor of the Telegraph is right when he
says that this rumor Is too absurd Tor no
tice, except as q text. We assure our
Arkansas neighbors that there Is no truth
in this rumcr. and that the people Vt Texas
will not hoist the Lone Star during the
existence of the war, if ever at all. be
who asserts that Texas would desert the
Confederate fag il the darkest hour Of our
country, il slauderer, aud dares not make
such an assertion in the presence Of a true
Texan. This rumor no doubt originated
from the report that Gen. Chambers (who
Is perhaps our next GovernOr) was not on
good terms With our President, and that
it elected Governor, he would hoist the
Lone Star. Gen. Chambers, in his last
card to the people Of Texas, says he enter
tains no unkiud feelings towards the Presl-
dent, and that he never entertained the
idea for a moment Of hosting the Lone

the biggest sort Of scare on. They know
they are going to get whipped awfully
someh ow or somewhere, just because they
have been SO very successful lately. They
are perfectly conscious this state cf things
cannot last, and they quake with mortal
fear Of the turn which affairs will soon
take. Their shouts of triumph over the

himself when he is in the attitude of a

his own door. One would naturally sup
pose that the soldiers who are 10 the field
barring their breasts to the storm and SUBJ
jected at all times to the danger OF the
enemy's guns would be the first, if any,
TO give up the contest but such IS not
the case. Our soldiers are everywhere as
determined and buoyant as ever, aud the
only thing that tends to depress them is
the report from the rear that some who
he'd professed to be their friends we're such
fools aud cravens as to imagine they could
save their carcasses or property by admit
ting they are whipped without even the

VALUABLE ACQUIsITIos-Wel learn
that the Confederate States Medical De-
partment at this place received, last week,
one Of the most valuable cargoes of drugs
from London that has ever been received
in the Confederacy since the commence
meDt of the war. In the lot ere two hun
dred cases Of amputating instruments.
The medicines are of the most superior
quality. So it is ce- tain our soldiers will
not die for the want of medicines.
These drugs were bought in London BY
our Government, and brought over at its
own risk. Such blockade running as that
does some good; bu. there is no sort Of
necessity for the Yankee trash that is run
in By private parties and sold for ten
prices, depreciatirg our currency and en-
couraging extortion and speculation.
