larity in feeding is Of the first importance
in keeping stock Improving; 2 much less
quantity of feed is required to keep cattle
thriving than when fed irrsgularly. When
fed at irregular intervals or periods they
are often hungry, and on the lookout for a
supply, causing uneasiness. This is not the
case when fed at regular intervals; they
then eat their feed with relish, ruminate
and rest contented till the time for the next
feeding comes around. All stock should be
fed three times day what they win eat up
clean, and at 8 regular hour be watered
three times, morning, noon and night, with
good fresh water at the ward, not driven to
the POND, or stream, to push each other.
and perhaps get famed, BY slipping upon
ice, etc. Rock salt should be kept where
they can have daily access to it; they
viii take no more than they need,
and it will tend to keep the blood cool and
the system healthy. A variety Of food is
as well relished, and is as desirable for
dumb animals as for their masters. An
occasional change from cornstalks to hay,
and Uice Uersd, will tend to keep up their
appetite, or a change of kinds Of hay; an
occasional feed of roots is also desirable,
bCAlN4lik " 6CCp AHc SfstCLA nC1iltl1s db Wei
as giving relish. For mileh cows, car
rots, parsnips and beets are preferable to
turnips, as these roots do not affect the fla
vor Of the milk unfavorably.
All animals should be kept clearly, as
cleanliness is essential to health. The
skin performs some of the most important
functions of the body keep it clean, mad
in good order, by carding at least once a
day. once knew man who fatted some
of the best stock sent to market in those
days, who made practice of taking card
in his hand and using it every time he
went into the yard or st1ble, the result
was, as might be expected, his cattle were
always clean, quiet, healthy, improving
and gentle, expressing the greatest satisfac-
ton on his appearance. A good bed of
straw will aid in keeping animals warm as
we'll as clean. A few hours spent in the
yard daily in pleasant weather will greatly |
promote comfort, and whatever promotes |
comfort tends to keep animals thriving. |
The different kinds of stock should be kept |
'eperate, not allowed to occupy the same |
yard at the same time. TIE

winter management OF Stock,

* sa0ck; trFE r-raaa EafrE asT
Prerequisites for properly wiutering
stock are, first, good stock; second, proper
lEIIEds and quantity Of fodder; third, con-
vzzueHt, comfortable buildings. To enter
nzaB ell these prerequisites would extend
this article beyond the limits Of single
EzPer, and exhaust the patience of the gen
= .ra1 reader. i shall, therefore, confine my
Sgf 90 the general-management of farm
-szls;k. The health and comfort Of al stock
IS Df the first importance in good manage
sxEFst; 70 secure this, sufficient room and
zusd ventilation are Indispensable. A Ger.
eziR degeee of warmth is also desirable TO
ESs1Te this, tight floors and buildings are
Hsassssary. Nentilators should be supplied
81 IS 60 carry Of the foul air without con-
1zMinGting the fodder, and to give the
z.E1Sk pure, fresh air without sabiecting
Sem 90 a draft of air The wintering of
szflie and stock embraces their treatment
ron the time they are brought from the
pasture in the fall till turned away again

Rough they may be allowed the run of the
pasture during the day. When tie fall
Gcos1s affect the feed, or when it becomes
short, little hay and grain should be fed
12ght and morning till it is time to
shut them up; and here many are art

he feed that they get does little if any
coed, merely stHfing them without in

their well-doing ID cold weather. a Il is
often practieed TO give out the poorest feed
Srst, and then gradually keep improving.
This feeding dry straw only, when FIRST
from grass, is 4 sort of torture that should
be abandoned. Some succulent food should
be givea to keep the animals improving.

AGRICULTURAL.


BaEe-thi head we propose to furnish
Che farmer readers Of the UNION AND DIS
Z4ECH suchsnggestionsupon various topics
zIE@ ne deem Will'Be Of interest to them, and
an taisendwe invite the farmers of this State
a1Eive Bs in short, pithy articles, their ex-
Fserienoe in the cultivation of the soil, the
aueeding and management Of stock and
eAsstatever else may interest their brother
sGzruers- By such an interchange of ex-
E<zience and ideas much may be accom-
PEished in promoting the productive in

Sell for Peaches.
The peach is great favorite in Tennes-
see. and its growth has been proftably pro-
seoufed by a number of gentlemen around
Nashville CoIeman's Rural World says
ss1su&y soil is generally selected-and with
zEdgaaent The peach cannot bear excess
"a moisture nor a compact soil and sand
answers both for drainage and easy passage
IN Ihe roots. But these qualities apply not
only 20 the peach, but to trees and plants
ezzEenersl. Wese 10 reason why this
sEse may not flourish in soil where other
Tazsss are successful. There is a difference
6u bardiness butthis has reference more to
Climate than to soil. And, further clay and
Ene, If is known, have the virtue of
Improving the quality Of fruit. On this
SFIrIzciple, we see no reason why this deli
1E1e fruit should not have all the advanta-
. EHs which can be given to it. A deeply
cultivated soil, thoroughly comminuted and
q0SsiIdrsined with a good proportion of
clay Or lime, or both, will no doubt prove
I'm advantage, atleast in what is the charac-
zsristic of this fruits deliciousness of
Azw0r. More care will be required with
s1Ech soil but viii it not pay? 1t win,
and it has; ii is doing that constantly; but
anly in well prepared and well taken-care-
Of soil which it generally does not receive
there istoo much labor. The principle no
Ssuht admits Of thorough success. Only
give it the advantage which sandy soil
b7ls-drainage and mellowness.

ssEaldeO Meal More Nutritious than
Raw.

Raw.
The nutriment afforded to animals bv
seeds and roots depends upon the rupture
fall tie glebules which constitute their
IaEsal or flower These globules vary in
tfiferent roots, tubers and seeds. Those of
Q p0tato starch, for instance, are usually from
6fsaen ten-thOusandths to the four-thon-
xzndth part of an inch: those Of wheat
rarely exceed the two-thousandth part of
Sn zach, and 50 on. From experiments
'u2zde on those globules by NJ. Rapsail. the
xTthOr Of t0rganie Chemistry" and NJ.
Ei0t, of the French. Academy of Sciences
Nzhe following conclusions have been drawn:
4. That the globules constituting meal,
Hour and starch, whether contained in
isTssin or roots, are incapable of afording
any nourishment as animal food, until
they are broken. ~.
2. That no mechanical method of break
iEgOr grinding, is more than partly eff
GEieut.
2. That the most efficient means of break
g ing the globules is by heat, by fermenta-
q 11ea, or by the chemical agency of acids or
,z{kaIies.
e That the dextriae, which is the kernel.
rs it were, Of each globule is alone soluble.
and Therefore alone uutritive.
>. That the shells of the gIobules, when
rsdueed to fragments by mechanism or
Eeak, are therefore not nutritiVe

7..That the eeGnimieai preparation of

AN OTHER VETO.

From the N. o. Picayune OF Tuesday Evening
The President has vetoed the new
Freedmen's Bureau bill and been over
ruled again by the Radical majority in
both Houses, l03 to SO in the House, SO to
IL in the Senate. 1t has therefore became
u law in spite of his nterpostion.
The figures confirm again the enormity
of legislating for great population with
out allowing them voice in affairs of tho
deepest interest to themselves.
There are l03 men, by the violent OK
clusion of the votes Of eleven States, Civ
ing themselves a two thirds vote in a
house which lawfully consists of 243, of
which number they constitute less by 10
votes than q bare majority. So in tho
Senate, so Senators by shutting 90 out,
make themselves two thirds Of 72, and
this is done in the name Of republicanism !
Tho cnormity of this sort Of legislation,
adds to the crimes for which the dominant
faction will have to answer before the
grand inquest of the people; and one of
the melting causes for their overthrow and
one Of the rewards of the triumph will be,
to be able TO repeal all such laws.

SAVANNAH, Ga, July a, 1866.
Editors News and Herald:
Dear .SSrS-I have been attracted by your
editorial OF to-day calling attention to the
shameful cut in the last paper of Harper's
Pictorial. My sense Of what is just and
right compels mo to assure your readers
that this "Pictoral," like all such publ
cations, is held in the greatest contempt
by all true national men of the North.
This Mr.. Harper is now, and has long
been, ambitious for political honors, end
seeks to ride into Congress through such
disreputable means. We, true Northern
ers who love our country before all parties,
will prove at our next election that it ia
time for such men to retire and give place
to men men whose labor is to preserve
not destroy our unhappy country.
For tho past two months, although
New Yorker, and avowedly loyal, have
travelled from Savannah to Chattahoochee
and Macon, and will bear witness that
never was man treated with more respect
and consideration than l have been on my
journey, and beg leave to thank all whom
| have mot for their great kindness to me,
assuring them that as long as life lasts
shall ever remember them with pride aud
affection. READER.
