FlaxCulture.

The subject of fax culture is exciting
very general attention throughout the
Northern States and we are informed
that many of the farmers in the section
will sow largely of it this season. Flax
will do we'll on any ground that is suita-
BILE for wheat or coru. Before sowing
however, the ground should be thorough
ly plowed an d narrowed. The seed
should be covered slightly with a light
harrow or brush, and then rolled. The
quantity of seed per acre to be sown,
will depend upon the leading object of
the farmer in raising the crop. If the
seed is the main thing with him, then
two pecks to the acre is the almost unan-
imous testimony Of those who have grown
it longest and most largely. If fibre is
the object, then of course, the seeding
should be heavier. The average yield
of seed is from 10 to II bushels per
acre. The average yield of straw is one
and half to about one ton of rolled
strw for which now there is very active
demand with every prospect of its in
crease.
The fax crop is very certain, as GER
tain as any crop, perhaps. A farmer in
Illinois, who had raised fax for over 20I
years and 8 years in succession upon
one piece of land, says he never knew it
to fail. The cost of production is about
the same as wheat; some say a little
less. Admitting il to cost the same, there
is no reason why it should not prove a
profitable crop. The Western farmers
are seeding down thousands of acres, and
it is 10 be hoped the farmers of New
England will follow their example.
In this connection it is not amiss to
say that Messrs. Keith and Hoopgood,
Of Sheldon, are abort erecting a fox
mill which will have all the improved
Those who raise fax can,
We have no doubt, make satisfactory ar
with these gentlemen to pur-
chase their crops standing or delivered
at the mill.-St. Albans Messenger.

RAISING CALvEs.-Messrs Editors
After trying various ways in raising
calves, find the following one not only
the cheapest, but for ought see as vel
for the animal as to let them suck the
COW or feed them with warm milk from
her, wintering better, and worth more
when one year old.
Take them from the COW at three DAYS
old, milk and feed them till three or four
weeks old, and the next three weeks use
a small teacup of wheat shorts, well stir
red in a small quantity of cold water.
then add as much boiling water as will
make one half meal for feeding, putting
in new milk for the other half, or even
skim milk that is sweet, and the calf will
not scour, but will do first rate, If YOU
give scolded shorts alone the fourth
month. JUDsoN WADswoRrH.

To Increase the Value of a Cow.

Every one who owns COW can see at
a glance that it would be profitable to in
crease the value of her, but every one
cannot tell how to do it. We can, and we
think we can make it equally palpable to
our readers. If COW is kept for butter,
it certainly would add to her value if the
butter making properties of her milk
should be improved. In summer or win
ter this can be improved just as the yield
of cultivated crop can be improved by
what is fed to each, and it is simply a
question of will it pay, in manuring the
one or feeding the other. Indian corn
will add to the quantity and quality of
the butter to very sensible degree; and
it is simply a question of easy solution,
by experiment, whether it will add to the
profit of the butter-m maker to buy corn at
one or two cents pound, and convert a
portion OF it into butter at twenty five
cents pound, or whatever the market
price of corn and butter may be, and an
other portion of it into fat, and another
portion Of it into manure, for that is the
natural result Of the chemical change
produced in the laboratory of the cows
stomach. The same result will follow
any other kind of feeding. Good pas.
lures will produce an abundance of milk
often as much as the COW can carry ; but
it does not follow that even then it will
not be profitable to feed her with some
more oleaginous food to increase the
quantity of butter, just as it sometimes
proves profitable to feed bees to enable
Them to store more honey. 1t certainly
does appear to us that the value of a COW
feeding upon ordinary winter food, may
DO almost doubled by making that food
suitable for the purpose of increasing the
quantity of milk, if that is the purpose
for which the COW is kept, Farmers
generally understand that they convert
c)rn into beef pork and lard, and some
of them know exactly at what price per
bushel it will pay to convert it into these
substances; but does any one know at
what rate it will pay TO convert corn or
any other grain into butter, or any other
kind of feed into the dairy products Is
the whole business a hap-hazard one p
We fear so. Some persons know that
they can increase the saleable value oil
butter by adding the coloring matter of
carrots to it. Does any person know the
value of bushel of carrots fed to COW
TO increase her value as butter-produ
cling laboratory? Experimental proof
upon this point would be far more worthy
of agricultural prizes than It is to see
who can show the largest roots; for BY a
few carefully conducted experiments we
should be able to increase the value of al
cow almost at pleasure.

SEcTARIAN PRAYER.-A Young lady
employed in teaching district school
somewhere in Ohio, wished to open the
school with prayer. and for that purpose
asked for the consent OF the trustees. II
was given readily, on one condition, that
the prayer should not be "sectarian. =
The condition was accepted. After some
weeks the school mistress was summoned
TO attend the trustees. Complaint had
been made that the daily prayer, contra
ry TO conditions, was "seelarian." The
young lady had no knowledge Of the
charge. She was clad in conscious in

A Cottage Scene.

We sat by our cottage Preside,
Mother, sister, and I,
Reading of dreadful battles
With many hcaving sigh.
Our mother was pale and feeble,
And all our hearts were sore,
For her son, our only brother,
Had been for months in the war
We feared for our failing mother,
Watching her closely the while,
We wondered to see her sad. pale face,
Light up with dreamy smile.
" Is it strange" - she said, "that I'm smiling
All, you see not what sec!

My sons coming homo to me

If he only comes to die"

They halt Mt our garden gate;
God grant it is our brother,
Thut he comes ere it be too late.
Up rose our trembling mother,
Tho coming steps to greet,
-Four men walked in with their burden,
And laid ii at her feet.

DIR. HALLS BALSAM strikes ut the root of
the disease AT ONCE, and such is its speedy eff

1t has effected cures in numerous cases, where
the most skillful physicians in this country and
in Europe have been employed, and have exer-
cised their skill in vain. Cases which they pro-
nounced 5RcurdbIe, and surrendered as hopeless
beyond a doubt, leaving the patients without

alton, but one which, if used in season, will save
