REGULARITY IN FEEDING.

Every good farmer knows that any do,
mestic animal is good clock-that ii
knows almost to minute, when the regu,
lar feeding time has arrived. If it has
been accustomed to be fed with accuracy at
the appointed period, it will not fret till
nat 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 avoi.
ded by strict punctuality 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 nev.
er been ascertained-it is certainly worth
an investigation-and can be only deter.
mined by trying the two modes, punctual'
ity and irregularity, side by side, under
similar circumstances and with the same
amount of food, for some weeks or months
together.
There is one precaution to be observed
in connection with regular feeding, where
some judgment is needed. Animals eat
more in sharp or frosty, than in warm or
damp weather. Hence, if the same amount
by weight is given at every feeding, they
will not have enough when the weather is
cold, and will be surfeited when it is warm
and damp. Both of the evils must be a,
voided, while little attention and observa.
ton will enable the farmer to do it.

sEfF.sUsTXINTNG FARMS.

Ex-Governor q. B. Vance, of North Car
olina, in his address before the Border Ag'
rieultural Fair at Danville, a few weeks
ago, offered the following practical sugges'
tion: ,.
In country so sparsely settled as ours.
and where lands are held in such large
bodies, the theory of division of labor is
not sound economy in farming operations
Every farm should be as nearly independ
ent and self-supporting in all respects as
lit can possibly be made. In mercantile par
lance, a farmer should, if possible, be q
general dealer to at least the extent of his
own consumption. Planting, therefore
as contradistinguished from farming-by
which We understand special devotion te
cotton, rice, tobacco, or any great staple
lis liable to this objection, it is not self-sus
tanning. An imperfect and unwise ar
|rangement, that is, by which so many Of
our planters expend the proceeds of theil
staple crops for provisions and stock, thus
paying double profits and commissions, az
we'll as shipping away the fairness of theil
soils every year and placing nothing back
in lieu of it. Every man who tills the sol
as means of living should surely first pro
vide himself with everything which his farm
will grow before he plants single seed fol
sale. Another great objection to planting
or special farming, is that it is ruinously
destructive to fertility and an enemy to the
Improvement of lands. 1t is, T believe, an
accepted truth that there are no means ot
permanent improvement in our soils equal
to the cultivation of some of the grasses
and the rearing of focks, which both retain
and return fertility to the earth. We are
here directly on the dividing line between
the planting and the grazing regions of the
United States, and by judicious and scien'
ti6c intermingling of both, I give it as my
unhesitating opinion that we stand in a bet.
