THE FETE DE NUIr.-The alton
dance at the Artesiau Springs Park
last nights mas not as large as we had
expected, but the party was a bril-
liant one, comprising a large number
of our first citizens. The music by
the orchestra was really magnificent,
and the illumination of the grounds
was exceedingly beautiful and
attractive. The zreonia Light
was finely displayed, and was
of unparalleled brilliancy. Everybody
seemed to enjoy themselves. The
street railroad was finely managed,
ana everybody, We think, was fully ac-
commodated. The cars run till mid
night. We are surprised that any of
our citizens should deny themselves
the rational recreation of visiting this
beautiful park on such occasions.
4 a NEW FAcToRY.-We take espe-
ciaI pleasurein directing attention to
the advertisement of Messrs. Padden
| & Company, manufacturers of soap,
candles and lard oil, Office on First
i Street, near Division. These gentle
man have. just established new man
ufactory on the canal above the city
and having had large experience il
the business, cannot fail to give gen
eral Satisfaction. With two first class
soap and candle factories in the city
our merchants can have no excuse fol
going abroad to purchase these arti

They are the cheapest and the best.

SAVE THE MANURE.-Farmers are
not aware how much is wasted on their
farms that with little care and trouble
might be made into valuable manure.
Everything that can be decomposed,
either in process of time, with the as
sistance of the elements or by the aid
of chemical agents, should be saved for
the compost heap. Select some place
in the barn yard, or adjacent lot where
it will be convenient of access, and
there gather your compost, adding
from time to time such solvents as NAV
be necessary. Here bring all the weeds,
sods, briars, thistIes, &C., that you are
compelled to dig and cut up through
the summer and add 20 this from time
to time whatever you have of waste
material, muck from the swamp, decay
ed fruits, potato vines, leaves the de-
post from the sink, &C.. and at the
close of the year you will be surprised
at the size of your heap, and be able
to see for yourself how much is really
wasted on your farms, that might be
turned to valuable account.-Rnral

OATs.-Oats are, of course, most
important article in stable mana re
ment and these, as everything horse
eats, ought to be of the finest quality.
1t may be thought that the weight of
oats is not matter of great conse-
quence, nor, in fact, is it to cart or
common horses; but it is quite the re-
verse to such as we are particular about
as to stamina, wind and condition.
Horses are generally fed by measure,
not by weight, consequently in giving
light oats, we actually rob the horse of
his proper quantum of meal, giving
him husks instead: and if we feed him
by weight, going on the principle that
a pound of feathers and pound of
lead are both a pound, the principle
would be very bad one as regards
oats; for in that case, though the horse
gets his pound weight, if he gets an
undue portion of it in husks he is only
flled with that which is no use to him I:
so in every way light oats are bad for
choice horses.

for the farmer.
improvement in Sheep.

Autumn is the most proper period OF
all the year to do something practically
towards improving sheep of any kind
Every farmer must decide for himself
which kind of sheep he will prefer
There will always be satisfactory profit
in raising good sheep of any breed
But, if farmer fancies the Leicester
more than the American Merino sheep,
he will be more likely to succeed most
satisfactorily with the breed he likes
best. It is exceedingly difficult to de-
termine which breed of sheep will re-
turn the most profit, as one reliable
farmer will give the preference to the
Merinos, or Saxonies, while another of
equally respected authority will affirm
that some long breed will give
more satisfactory return. But, what
ever may be the breed, it is time that
rams were selected and kept in readi-
ness for the flock.
The period of CESSATION of ewes be-
ing one hundred and fifty days, farm
ers in different localities must decide
for themselves as to the most desirable
period for lambs to be dropped. If
lambs are to be reared for their wool,
it will usually be more satisfactory TO
have the yeaning season occur about
the commencement of the growing
season. Ewes that rear lambs should
have grass. If the lambs be brought
forth before grass appears, they are
sometimes stunted for the want of milk.
When such thing happens to a young
lamb it never RECEIVERS from the set
back in its growth. 1t is always in
judicious policy to manage with any
flock so that the lambs will appear be-
fore the weather has become sufficient
Iy warm for the dams to save every
lamb. In many localities lambs should
be dropped the first of April, or before,
while still farther north, where the
growing season does not commence till
the first of May, young lambs ought
not spring into life until the weather
has become warm, aud some grass has
appeared.
