A Personal Argument.

COUNSELOR R, one of the foremost
advocates of the Bar of Central New
York, was himself collegian, and was
naturally anxious that his oldest son should
reap the honors of his own alma mater.
The counselor had been quite wild in his
early years, and Master Will manifestly
inherited a superabundance of what the
philosophers of the Josh Billings school
would call "pure cussedness." During
his first year at college, Will was sus-
pended for some fragrant breach of dis
cipline, and arriving at home he pro-
ceeded to report the occurrence to his
father. Suspended, hey?" the old law
yer remarked, laying down the volume of
Reports that he was perusing, and looking
reprovingly at Will over his spectacles.
"a pretty beginning you've made of it,
declared" The culprit put his hands in
his pantaloon pockets and said not word

How Shall We Keep Our Fowls /!

This is question which concerns thou
sands at this season. A supply OF fresh
eggs is great addition TO our kitchen
economy, and most agreeable one to our
table. Fresh eggs for breakfast all the
year round is decidedly Utopian. In the
first place we must provide light and air.
Windows are absolutely necessary on the
south side of the hennery, so that the
winters sun can be made available for
warmth. All the scraps and soap grease
of the kitchen can be returned to us in
the shape of fresh eggs, and will greatly
lessen the expense of feeding the hens.
They must have animal food. When the
ground is open, and worms abundant, they
are as well supplied as though they dined
on roast beef and mutton; but in winter
It must be given to them. All the bones
left from the table, the bits of fat, the
scrapings of the plates, etc, should be
treasured for their use. Keep an old
kettle on the back of the stove, turn all
slops into it, even coffee grounds, and
when well -heated, feed it. At oon-time,
it can be given smoking hot and quite
watery-the warm drink helps to supply
the carbon they need. Where beefs-liver
can be cheaply obtained, 1t makes excel

Don't Sell Your Farm by the Busbel.

Many a farmer who works steadily and
ZealOusly to keep every acre of his farm as
an inheritance for his children, is unwit-
tingly selling it away by driblets, when, by
a more judicious course of management,
he might make az much money and keep
adding to the value of the place. Having
barrel of good wine, he draws off the
contents, little by little, and keeps the
barrel without the wine. The value of
the farm lies in its fertility, and, except in
rare cases, only in its fertility. Itdepends
on his management whether he leaves it
like an emptied barrel to his children, or full
of the good wine, that constitutes its great
value. Indeed, the example is not strong
enough, for the fertility of the land is not
an idle wealth, like the wine in the barrel.
1t may be drawn out and lived upon, and
yet be kept constantly increasing. 1t all
depends on management whether the
father shall thrive, and, at the same time,
increase his sons inheritance, or the re-
verse.
II is not the crop which grows that ex-
hausts the land; it is the disposition we
make of it after 1t is grown. Every bushel
of grain contains matters supplied by the
soil. If it is sold, there is an end OF 1t, SO
far as the farm is concerned. If it is fed

part taken from the soil goes into the dung
heap, and there goes with it matter which
the growing plant took, directly or indi-
rectly, from the atmosphere, and which
helps to develop more of the mineral
plant food of the soil, and to make more
Shan bushel the next year. Therefore,
look well to the crops. Sell, of course, all
that cannot profitably be fed out on the
place, and, with part of the price, buy
manure to bring home. But, in counting
the profit and loss of feeding at home,
consider always the value of the manure.
1t is safe to say that, one year with another,
corn thoroughly soaked and cooked,
(never mind the grinding if you cook
thoroughly and fed to well-housed swine
of "growthy breed, will bring more
rqOneu than if sold in the market, to say
nothing of the manure indeed, it will more
often than not pay to buy corn to make
into pork-cooking it first. Grow clover
to be fed to your own stock, the sod to be
plowed in the spring of the second year;
plant corn on the land /; feed the corn to
your own pigs, and use the manure of the
