A New PATENT HORSE SHOE.

Producing a spring under the horses
foot in a practical manner, so as to
lessen the blow that is so fatal to
the sounduess of horses which have
to travel over hard stones instead
of their naturl pathway, the turf.
It any elastic material is introduced
between an ordinary shoe aud the
hoof, the rebound of the spring
bears the shoe from the foor:: TO
obviate this difficulty, Mr.. Fowler
uses a. double shoe aud places the
elastic between them. The second
shoe is connected with the foot by
meauS OF rieets, hichhoid it firm.

German Economy.

A late tourist in Germany describes the
economy practic"d by the peasants rs fol-
lows: Each German has his h0uS", his orl-
chard and his roadside trees, 50 laden
with fruit that did he not very carefully
pr'p them up, tic them together, and i'll many
places hold the 5Dngh3 together by wooden
clamps, they wonldbe tom asunder by their
own weight lie has his own corn plot, his
plot for mangle wurze for hay, for potatoes
for hemp &c. He is his own master, and
therefore he and his family have the strong,
est motives for eXeriiOn. In Germany no.
thing is lost. The produce of the trees and
the cows Is carried to market. Much fruit is
dried :Or winter use. You see wooden trays
Of pluns, cherries and sliced apples lying in
the hot sun to dry. You SEE strings Of them
hanging from the windows in the sun. The
cows are kept upthe greater prat of the year,
and every green thing is collected for thsm.
Every little nook where The grass grows, by
the roadside, river and brock, is carefully
cut by tho sick!a, ghd carried home on the
heads Of women. Nolili,c Of the Gind is
lost that can possibly be made Of any @sa.
Weeds, ne.te nay, the very goosc'grass
which covers the waste places, are cut up
and taken for the cows. You see the little
children standing in hc streets or,hc villages
and in the streams, which generally run
down them, busy vashing tEese weeds before
tley are giien TO the cattle. They carefully
collect the leaves OF the marshgrass, care
fully cut their potato tops for them, aud ey-
en-, if other things fail, gather green leayes
from the woodlands"
