Comfort of Animals.

An animal may be well fed and ap-
parently well attended and yet be un-
comfortable, owing to the floor to
stand or rest on, bad rack or man
ger. or some other inconvenience in
the stable; there may be a want of
exercise or change of food, pure. air,
carding, pure water, or something else
necessary for comfort /; he may breathe
on his food and render it offensive, or
something incommode, or render the
animal uncomfortable. OF course,
his digestion is impaired, his appetite
declines, he will not grow or fatten
and is unfit for labor, and the female
is not in good condition for yielding
good,wholesome milk. If we intend
our farm stock shall be proftably
kept, we must attend to their COM
fort as well as their sustenance.
They must be well lodged as well as
we'll fed, or they will consume much
hay and provender to little purpose.
If they are well Uttered they will not
only be rendered the more comforta-
Bile, but the material with which they
are accommodated will make good
manure. Therefore, make your ami
mails comfortable. 1t is compara-
lively an easy matter for those far
mers who have nothing but good
English hay and grain to feed out to
their stock, to have them look well
sand do well, but with some farmers
who have a great deal of coarse fod-
der, it is very different thing. 1t
requires considerable study to carry
a stock of cattle through the winter
on coarse fodder, and have then look
ing well in the spring. A person
must be constantly fixing them. L
know of no better way than to keep
changing from one kind to another,
and in judicious feeding, so as to
keep the appetite good, one can keep
stock thriving on good order.-N.

SEED PoTAToEs.-I was brought
up in a section where we were taught
that the seed ends of potatoes were
the best for seed; the earliest and
largest. | took medium sized pota-
toes, cut off the seed ends, and plan
ted together in one place, and the
body of the potato in anotheI-
ground being equal-and the result
was, that the seed potatoes were the
first out of the ground and more in
number Of tops, while the body pota-
toes were later in coming up, but
lerger tops. The result in digging
was more potatoes from the seed
ends, but not so large, nor SO many
bushels from the same number of
hills. Again, take whole potatoes,
and plant the same of equal size and
cut into two picccs-meaning fair
sized-and the result will be in favor
of the cut potatoes. This season,
being short Of seed, | planted bush
el or so of very small " OronoS -
too small to eat-and they are equal
in size to whole potatoes Of larger
demensions, and turn out as well al
so.-Thereforc, if small potatoes will
produce as we'll as the larger ones
and will not cost onc-f fourth as much
it is a result worth knowing.-E.
Folsom, in GCHeSee Farmer.

WHAT IS A CoMPosT.-This name
is properly applied to any manure
made by mixing various substances
of fertilizing value, so that by their
action upon one another, or by the
effect of the mixture, their joint val
ue is enhanced. Thus when we mix
bushel or two of lime Stacked with
brine, or Of ashes with load OF
muck, the result is a compost worth
more to the soil than both applied
separately. Sowhen we take bone
dust, hen manure and leached ashes
or plaster, in judicious proportions,
we make a compost which is good
for manuring corn in the hill, for top
dressing for grass, &C., and so compo-
sed or 'scomposted as to be more
conveniently handled, and worth
more than if seperate. Compost does
not mean anything in particular, but
all compound manures in general
which our farmers make.

PREEcocIoUs.-There is live Van.

that picks the bones out of fish, and
throws the meat into the mouths of those
who feel inclined to eat fsh-macKarel
in particular. The said loquacious scion
of Yaukeedom has also taught ducks to
swim in hot water, and with success,
