The London dairymen have decided
that the most profitable COWS are graded
short horns, not because they give more
milk, but because, when past milking,
they make more beef.

Professor Brewer, of Yale Scientific
School, recommends Re Breton cattle for
scanty pastures. They yield eight
times their weight of milk per year, and
thrive well where other breeds fail.
A recent writer states that three hun
dred and fifty bushels of potatoes re-
move ninety pounds of potash from the
soil on which they are gro%n; cOnse-
quently wood ashes is one of the most
valuable manures for this crop.
The number of threshing machines in
the United States is about 229, 900, and
they save five per cent. more of the

ingly saving by these machines of

There are now in Australia, says the
Mark Lane Express, some four millions

As general practice, Southern and
Western farmers have depended on d

corn, when the same store could have
been gathered from fifty acres ploughed

The great curse of English agricul-
ture, says Mr.. Mechi, of TIptree Hall,
after want of drainage, is deficiency of
manure. My experience has taught me
that land can never be 100 rich, even
for wheat or o. her cereals, provided the
manure has been applied for a previous
crop. 1t is the sowing of too much seed
that causes crops to be prematurely laid
in well-fertilized soils.

THE New York FOrld is not satisfied
with the ability of the MassachuSe' Is
Secretary of the Treasury. and says he
never proposed any financial measure,
nor even an amendment to any financial
measure, during his whole career in
Congress. If he has ever participated
in the debates upon such measures, it
has been in n manner so feeble, and with
information so inadequate, as TO have
attracted no notice. His efforts of this
kind (ifhe has ever made any cannot be
said to have slipped out of public rec
ollec:Iou, for men do not forget what
they never thOnght it worth their while
tVatteud to. Mr.. BOUTwELL'S financial
speeches wrre not merely too worthless
tn he remembered, but too mean TO be
patused, even with the curSory attention
which is bestowed on the miserable in
antics of the ordinary run and dead
levol of the Congressional debates. Mr..
BOUTwEII.S mind is incapable of grasp
ing that class of subjects; he feels too
little interest in them to have bTOached
even an ingenious crotchet, much less a
wise and sagacious plan for placing the
finances on "A solid basis. He is no more
tit for Secretary of the Treasury than he
is to be the chief of q commission for
eodifying the Federal laws, or President
of college of physicians and surgeons,
or Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.
The idea of man of his slender ca
pacity aud mental equipments propos
ing to Congress practicable plan for
the resumption of specie payments, or
for refuuding the public debt at lower
rate of interest, or for revising our alb
aurd and chaotic system of taxation is
simply ridiculous. He can of course
put forth feeble and borrowed plati-
tudrs on such subjects, as he could on
the methods Of conducting the Coast
Survey, or mechanical improvements in
the Mint, or on any other subject which
he does not understand. If uc has any
qualifications for toe great and respon
slble Office TO which he has now been
appointed, no man ever so perfectly
