Live Stock.

No man can be u real b0ndjidc farmer
without live stock, aud farmers may bo
classed in some measure according to
the quality Of their animals. Away
from cities and popuious places 1t II iln-
possible to keep up the fertility Of the
land To make 1t pay unless the produce
Is chiefly consumed by the live stuck
and converted into meat. milk, wool, or
animals for Use 10y other people, as pay
ment to the farmer for his time aud
capital, and transmitted into manure ~
u reward to the land, without which re.
turn no farm can be kept in condition
good enough to pay for cultivation
This Is tire first secret Of successful
farming away from places where IL an
swers to send to market hay, straw,
garden stuff, &c. But there are others
which unfold themselves in the course
of raising aud feeding. The next in
importance Is to manage so that no
time may b. lost in the growth OF tho
young, and to house aud feed Ia such .
manner rs 10 carry on the improvement
wrought in summer through the au-
tumn, winter and spring; after which
the grand secret Is to breed and raise
such animals only as command the
highest market price, which is rs easily
done rs to continue breeding IN unthrif-
~ ana unpfOIllADlc race @.#s-
fla farmer has Il useful common gralle
stock, healthy and gooI breeders, milk
ers, DC, but the progeny never selling
for more than barely sufficient TO enable
him to pay his way, just reckon the diff
ference it would make to him il he went
to good breeder, say OF Short Horns
for instance, and bought u bull. mind
ing when purchasing to SEQ the dam Ut
the animal he selects. for II he wants
milk as well rs meat, he must see that
she gives some; then when this buli's
stock comes into the herd, taking the
place of the old ones he will reap IN
advantage every way. 1t will be the
same with sheep; the laying out Of
something extra tor ram or rams from
il iirst.rate flock, will add to his wool
aud mutton, as also cause his future
young ones to come to maturity earlier,
and, what will be Of great consequence
to the farmers of this country for years
to come, these better bred animals can
be brought out fat at that season Of the
year when all common stock is low In
flesh. and all varieties Of meat sell for 20
or 30 per cent. more than ut other times.
Live stock and plenty Of 1t. is the great
preventive to a farm running out, and
to the owner becoming poor; 1t will
brighten the faculties Of bad farmer,
and draw out the latent powers Of mind
which have been rusting for years, for
with heavy stock Of all kinds Of cattle
and sheep. he has to forecast for each
day. week, month and year aye. and

the other for vegetables. Each Of these
| buildings is 30x25. The richness Of

room for exhibition. Between Fine Arts
