Hints to Farmers.

To another correspondent who wants us
to suggest q good drain on a farm, We would
say a heavy mortgage at 10 per cent. will
drain it about as rapidly as anything we
know Of.

In cutting down hemloek trees for can
ming, select only the largest. Don't throw
away the chips, as they make fine parlor
ornaments, encased in rustic frames Of salt
and vinegar.
The coming cold weather should
suggest to the humane farmer the necessity
for a new cow-shed. The following is a

One of the great ~triumphs of Homeopathy is the
cure of diseases of DOMESTIC ANIMALS. The
Horse. the Gov, Sheep, Dog, and even hog, are
cured of the several diseases to which the, are
subject, by the small doses of Homeopathy, with
a degree of certainty and rapidi,y that is anna
sing. Some diseases incurab;e by the ordinary
means are rapidly cured by this method, while
the ease with which the medicine may be given
and the rapidity of the cure is perfectly delight
full. No one who has witnessed the sstoni- hing
cures performed on Domestic animals by Hum
phreys Veterinary Specifics would willingly
subject them to the barbsrous ~tortures and the
lingering uncertainty of the old system.

Feeding Cattle In the Fail,

Not . few farmers, fearing the long winter,
fail to begin to feed their cattle until the
time to do so is far over past. Such a course
is unwise for two reasons. The pastures
and meadows are eaten into the earth,
leaving no protection for the winter which
all plants need, and, what is worse, cattle
that begin the season poor require more
food to take them through than those in
good order, and the supposed saving of .
few hundred pounds of hay in the fall in
wolves the feeding Of an equal if not larger
quantity, in order to regain in March aud
gest that the very day cattle fail to fill
themselves from the fields, they have hay or
corn-stalks to supply the deficiency.
