PuLLETs.-A pullet hatched ear
ly in the spring begins to lay at the
approach Of winter; and pullets
hatched late in the Summer begin
to lay in the ensuing spring, and
it is by saving certain proper
tion Of pullets from tho early and
late broods that you make sure of
winter eggs, a few early hatcbed
chickens for catching the highest
markets, and q numerous flock OF
chickens in the warm months,
when rearing is least prccarious.
Tho hen continues in her prime
for two, and, at most, three years.
therefore, save every year pullets
equal to a third OF your brood
stock, selling off at a trifling Price
the same number Of aged hens, or
offering them up in a stewed dish,
or well baked pie. However, ]
have no scruple about keeping a
heavy, symmotrically-mad splon-
didly-ieathered "partlet" for four
years, for the sake of her stock.
Many farmers grumble about their
poultry, from not paying attention
to such a simple matter as their
not looking over their brood stock
once year, drafting all the old
danes (known by the Developed
scales on their legs), and reserv-
ing from athc market basket the
most promising young pullctsraisi
ed during the season.

SIZE OF FARMS. IF farmers who
have poor farms OF large size were
TO curtail the dimensions of their
corn6elds fifty per cent ,and expend
the amount they saved 10 labor in
manure, they would be enabled IN
a few years, devoted to such poll
cy, to improve all their arabic
lands, and bring their entire es-
tates into q condition of profitable
fertility. And while this wonld
be going on they would find by the
increase of manure applied to their
corn land, and attention to its cul-
lure, that their corn crop would
rather increase than decrease.
The great fault With us all Is that
we attempt to achieve tco much,
and, owing TO that circumstances,
fail of achieving any thing .sorthy
OF the character Of good farmers.
1t should be the policy and pride
of all to do whatever we do well,
rather than to be ambitious Of doing
much. Large corn6elds unmanur-
