BORROWING TooLs.-It is an old say
ing, remarks the Albany Cultivator, that
"he that goes borrowing, goes sorrow-
ing;" and a still older one, "the bor-
rover is servant to the lender" But SO
far as applies to farm tools, Yankee
ingenuity seems to have reversed these
sayings, for one of the greatest annoy
ances of some neighborhoods is the
necessity for lending tools. won't you
lend me your cart to day?" ~ want TO
borrow your crowbar. "-"Can,t you let
us have your drag" "Aro you goin' to
use your old mare to-day" "Father
wants to get you oxen.'--"l want half
dozen of yournew bags" "tSc are usually
followed with long searches for lost
bags, half days spent in getting carts
and harrows repaired, &c.
"Why, father, Mr.. Dump!in SAID he
would pay for the cart, ifyon would get
it mended." "IIe would indeed, would
heY--,hls would cost him about ore
fourth ofmy loss Of time in going to him
for it, and taking it from the blacksmith
shop, to say nothing of three days delay
in getting in work done' "But. father,
you know thas q great deal better than
Mr.. Suggarpum did when he borrowed
your cul,ivator, for when he broke 1t, he
swore at you behind your back, for
lending him such rotten MACHINE
and woudn' never pay cent"
"John, where's the crow BARI" II
don't know; sir. I've hunted for it a
good deal for two or three. days.
"IIave you looked in the barn" "Yes,
hunted all through the barn, and the
carriags.house, and the corn'house.'
"IIavo you asked JIM "Iim haven't
YOU seen the crowbar nowhere" "Why,
yes, saw it at Squire Noodle's' he bor-
rowed it one day when you was gone
away, to pry up bar post, and it's been
stickln' there ever since"
Every farmer should have n full set Of
Implements and tools, aud haze a place
for eue'y thing, ah erery thing in its
place. If be has not the means, let him
sell off a corner ofhis farm to procure
them.

FARMERS GoLUMN.

How TO MAKE MurroN.-A lot OF
Cottswold sheep having been seen IN
New York that would weigh from 800
to 400 lbs, the proprietor "a Canadian)
was asked his method OF fattening sheep
and replied:
"In the first place I secure good
breed. That is the most important
point. The next thing is to keep them
growing from the time they are weaned
till they are taken to the slaughter"house,
( never allowing them to grow poor at any
season of the year. l have ted them all
the hay, peas and oats they will eat
Peas are better than Indian corn for
making mutton. Oats furnish a nitro
genous matter for the formation OF ne-
oessary MUSCLE Peas produce more tat
than the same number Of pounds OF
cereal gram"
ado you feed any roots and straw
"Yes each sheep gets not less thah
one or two pounds OF turnirs daily, with
all the straw to eat and lie on he wants;
and a food shed is provided, with sup-
ply Of pure water, and salt to lick at
pleasure"
"How much do you expect to get tor
the largest of your tlock?'
"Two hundred dollars per head, or l
ship them from this market!
The next day we learned they were
taken at that price for Christmas NUT
