now POOR FARM WAS MADE PRoDuc'
TIVE

The agricultural editor of the Balta'
more Sun gives the following details OF a
case with which he was we'll acquainted.
He says;
A farmer who had been educated with
notions of high farming, that had been
confirmed by years of observation pur-
chased farm of about hundred acres
very moor, indeed hvpelessly SO, to ordl-
narv observers Our friend believed,
however, that the use of the right means
and enough of them, would effect his pur-
pose sooner or later, and as the farm
was to be his future residence, and he
had no money at command, he determined
to make the experiment, even If he found
If \ costly one. We will not detail the
various operations to which he resorted,
and by which he finally brought his land
to very high degree of produetlVenesS'
This was done not without cost certainly,
though the outlay was amply repaid III
in the end. But we con6ne our remarks
to the most unpromising part OF the iand'
according to our common ideas OF fertility
This was field of blowing sand, so poor
that the rye sown on it did not produce
the seed the year the Improvement was
begun. It's poverty was still further H.
lustrated the following year by growth
of common field (black-eyed) peas not
exceeding six inches in height. This
crop of peas was designed to be the basis
of the improvement, but we should expect
little result from the small quantity OF
vegetable matter thus furnished. Never
thelcss, with it was applied htty ousheis
of fresh lime. After this twenty bushels
of coarse ground bones were put on, ana
dressing of three hundred pounds OF Peru
Wan guano to produce u crop OF wheat
1t was sown at the same time with clover
and grass seeds, which after standing two
years was followed by corn. After this
another crop of peas, with moderate
dressing of bones and guano, brought for
ty bushels of wheat to the acre. This
was from that time considered dcrman-
emily improved, and ever since has
brought highly profitable crops. All ex,
penses we're fully paid in five years crops

REGULARITY IN FEEDING-Every good
farmer knows that any domestic animal
is a good clock-that it knows to min
ute when the regular feeding hour has
arrived. If it has been accustomed to be
fed with accuracy at the appointed period,
it will not fret till that period arrives !;
after which it becomes very restless and
uneasy till its food comes. If it has been
fed irregularly, it will begin to fret when
the earliest period arrives. Hence, this
fretting may be entirely avoided by strict
puuctuality; but it cannot be otherwise.
The very moment the animal begins to
worry, that moment it begins to lose flesh,
but the rate of this loss has never been
ascertained-it is certainly worth an in
vestigation-and can be only determin-
ed by trying the two modes, punctually
and irregularly, side by side, under SINH
lar circumstances, and with the same a.
mount of food, for some weeks or mouths
together.
There is one precaution to be observed
in connection with regular feeding, where
some Judgment is needed. Animals cal
more in sharp or frosty, than in warm and
damp weather. Hence if the same amount
of weight is given by every feeding, they
will not have enough when the weather
is cold, and will be surfeited when the
weather is warm and damp. Both Of
these evils must be avoided, while lit.
tie attention and observation will enable
the farmer to do it--Rual Affairs.
