AGRICULTURAL.


MIIcH Cows. during the hot weather
Of August and September. COWS. unless in a
very extra pasture, With a plenty of shade
and good water, fail very much in their pro-
ductiveness When once partially dried up
tits hard to bring them into full flow of
milkagain during the season. The greatest
care should therefore be taken to give them
a plenty of some kind of nutritious soil-feed,
corn, oats or whatever other kind of green
feed farmer may happen ohave feed they
must have. IF cows are obliged to work
hard all day, in short pasture, during hot
weather, to obtain barely enough to keep
them alive, they viii become both too much
heated and fatigued TO keep up full flow of
milk, and whoever expects any profit from
cows in hot weather must feed them enough,
so that as the heat of the day advances they
may retire to the shade, for comfort and re-
pose.

y the reputation Of having real liking fol
at; and, certainly. the way in which they
are kept on some farms would show that
their owners are determined to giyethem am
pie opportunities for carrying out this liking
No notion can, however, be more erroneous
than this, as none is certainly so productive
of loss to the keeper. Let any one not con-
vinced of this try the two modesof pig keep
ing-the dirty and the clean-the food in
both cases, and other general treatment, be-
ing the same and the result will show him
which of the two is better in the end. A
great deal depends upon the mode in which
they are housed.

FEED LABoRERs WELL-We always found
that it was infinitely better policy to set a
good table and feed laborers well, than to
give them short meal, or try to ever get
them to labor an unreasonable number OF
hours ina day. a good farmer will not seek
to get extra work out of his laborers byturn-
ing day into twilight or night. Laborersre-
gard this practice as an imposition, and viii
become morose and disconted at the exac-
ton. Besides exhausted nature requires a
suitable time to recruit It's energies, and
should have it.

Since that time their whole course has
been of an "incendiary and revolution
airy" character. They have usurped
power not contained in the constitution
of the State, and not granted by the peo-
pie. They have broker. down the barri-
ers erected to protect the people from
despotism, and have trampled many OF
the most sacred popular rights in the
dust. If this be not revolutionary" we
do not know the meaning of the word.
Of the "incendiary" character OF our
neighbours publications, in the strlctest
application Of the term, some evidence
is afforded by recent conaagration, the
recollection of whose circumstances Is
still fresh in the minds of our citizens.
The condition Of affairs in the border

alarm some of the results of its teachings
and we cordially join hands with it in
endeavoring to repress violence and give
peace and quietude to the people Of all
sections of the State, We trust that the

edge of the result of their "incendiary
