together with their simplicity, will commend
them to all owners and operators OF machinery.
The principle OF their action is combination

Rapidly or Life.

Human life is like a path, the
end of which is a frightful prec-
ipice. We are told so at the be-
ginning. We try to check our on
ward step; but no, it is decreed
that we must march, march. An
invincible power drags us on, on
unceasinfly-on no to the fearful
gulf. A thousand troubles,
crosses, vexations beset our path;
but what are they, if only we
could avoid the frightful end!
No, no; march, march, hasten on.
From time to time, objects pleas
ant to the traveller, running wa
ters, and flowers which quickly
pass, tempt to amusements. We
rejoice because our hands grasp
a few flowers and fruits; flowers
which fade ere the close of the day
and fruits which are lost in the
tasting. What delusion! enchan-
ted, dragged ON nearer, nearer the
gulf. Already the joys of life
lose their brightness: the gardens
for us bloom less sweetly; the gay
flowers become dim; the plains
lose their smiles, and the waters
their transparency. Death throws
its shadow on all things. We
feel that we are nearer the brink;
one step more; horror seizes our
senses; all is confusion; and
we are dead.-BOssuet.

lings. | appeal to Englishmen
in America or to Americans
who have visited the Agricul-
tural districts of England and at
tended the horse fairs there, to
say wether the two year old farm
colts are not forwarder than three
year-old ones here.
l will briefly add that the main
hints to be given are to make the
colts fat against winter, by extra
food, to the mare as well as the
colt, if it cannot be done without
and do not hurry about weaving,
as by feeding the mare well she
will not be injured. Give bran,
oats and corn too if you like, but
not more than one-third of the
latter in proportion TO the bran.
and no corn unless the colts run
out in a field. The whole dry,
for the salive is the natural fluid
to assist in digestion, and the
loss of it with the bran, &c, by
mixing water with it is partly the
cause of the gaunt frames one SO
frequently sees. As for cooking
any kind of food, unless you
choose to give some linseed jelly,
it is time thrown away, as also
chaff cutting, curry combing and
much other old woman's rubbish,
Nature has laws and they cannot
(all of them) be broken with i'm
punity.-Cor. Country Gent.

Chicken Desesse.

| have a great variety of fancy
fowls at De ,Kalb and Kaneyille,
some ofwhich l paid great prices
for, and priced accordingly. But
as is usual with my farming ex-
periments, they began to drOop,
and soon the Houdans began to
die, then the Creve Cours and
other crowned varieties, and fl
nally, white Dorkings and others.
Their heads became sore, eyes
swollen, then total blindness,
with eyes ready to burst from
their sockets, which they would
do on the least pressure with
thumb and finger against the
sides of their heads. Every one
that became blind died.
Some are losing all their chick
ems, as well as old ones, and dare
not even use their eggs.
Ihave read many poultry books
and never fail to read all L can
see on the subjects in papers, but
have never seen an account of a
like disease, or of symptoms at all
like the above.
So l fed them sulpher, red pep
per, black pepper and all other
fiery doses that l had seen recon-
mended ; but still they died till
some varieties were extinct, when
| was reading an editorial in the
Massachusetts, Ploqyn1aa, upon
the treatment of poultry, describ-
ing the effects of lice and other
vermin on poultry, and it oc-
Cured to me that my fowls might
be lousy. / took the next train
for Kaneville and began a coro-
nor's inquest ona live chicken,
and to my horror saw the cause.
Their heads were covered with
perfect mass of nits, piled one
upon another and along, fiat kind
of lice busy adding hundreds
more.
Among the wing quilts were
thousands of smaller kind of
hce in heaps.
l made a quantity Of sulphur
and lard ointment and prepared
for business; put it on several
times and hired the boys to COM
plete the job. Not one has died
since, although my neighbors are
still losing as many as ever.-COr.

Lazy Farmers.

Laziness prevents man from
getting off his horse to put up the
first rail that gets knocked off the
fence, and through his lazy neg
lect whole field of corn is seri-
Ously damaged.
Laziness keeps a man from
driving one nail when one would
do, and finally costs a carpenters
bill for extensive repairs.
Laziness allows a gate to get
off the hinges and lie in the mud,
or stand propped by rails-or a
stable or barn to leak and damage
hundreds of dollars worth of pro-
vender.
Laziness, in short, is the right
and proper name for nine-tenths
of the excuses given for bad farm
ing. But by far the most prolific
of the many wastes that are due to
laziness is the waste of ignorance.
But this waste is in itself so great,
and has SO many ramifcations,
that we shall have to defer its
discussion for another time.-Er.

WeaninQ and Care Of Colts.

When colts are weaned, they
should never be put with older
animals of their own species; a
few together, with abundance of
room, will do best, and the atten-
ton should be from one person
who has sense enough to dis
cover any little matter going a.
miss before it is serious, or in
other words, he should have the
gumption to prevent every all
ment horseflesh is liable to, in
stead of waiting to cure it. For
instance, there may be a colt
among several which is so shy and
nervous that he is afraid to stand
up and eat with the others, till
his share is nearly consumed.
There may be another naturally
very slow in masticating, which
would lose much of his share, and
thus these animals would pine
away, for if enough was given so
that there would be more than
the boldest would eat, it would
still be wrong, as there would be
a cIoying ofthe fast eaters. This
matter could easily be remedied
by separation and other preven-
hons adopted in time to meet
every contingency, but in no sue
cessful undertaking of horse rails
ing would there be a constant
use of drugs or resort to quack-
cry. a1 "E1fe .Al.l
Colts are less subject to disease
than other young stock, and can
be raised without any codling and
when it must be known by horse
men in America at what an early
age the thoroughbreds are
brought on the turf, it is ex-
tremely surprising that they
should be content to raise their
colts in such a manner as to have
the American two-year olds go
forwarder than the English year

Farm and Household.



The first thing necessary is
plenty of shedding and scaffold-
ing on which to dry the brush,
also a plenty of air. Build scat
folds one tier above another, say
twelve inches apart. When the
brush is stripped, spread on say
from two to four inches in thick
ness. When partially dry you re-
move from half of the scafolding
and consolidate, so as to give
room for other brush. Two strips
say twelve to fifteen inches apart,
make a good scaffold to hold up
the brush. The brush is most
valuable when cut green, or as
we say, sin the blue" before the
seed is ripe, when ready to cut,
break down in tables, standing
between two rows, breaking and
laying horizontally and crosswise
walking backward, thus forming
table on which to place the
brush when cut.
Afterward pass along between
the tables, cutting one row to
the hand, usinga common shoe
knife. The stem or stalk left at
tached to the brush should be
from four to eight inches in length.
When drawn in from the field the
seed should be stripped off imme-
diately:; placing the brush on
scaffolding, as directed above.
Be careful always to dry in the
shade; and when perfectly dry,
bundle up and pack away until
ready to bale for market.-C0r.

dence that the parties-one or
both-have been false to the
marriage covenant. 1t is well
that the young welded couple do
not know or anticipate the scenes
of disappointment, trial and sor-
row that are before them. Suf-
ficient unto the day is the evil
thereof. Although many of their
brightest anticipations will not
be realized, greater comforts than
they have thought of will arise
from unexpected sources as the
result of their union. Marriage
is Gods ordinance for the happi-
ness of those who contract it. 1t
will not fail of its design, except
by the fault of those who enter it.
But all human relations have
an end. The bond which united
two hearts in the most endearing
relation will be broken. Death
sunders the marriage tie. The
two who had walked side by side
along the journey of life are now
separated-the one to be borne
to the grave and to eternity, the
other to go alone to the duties
and trials of fife. The joy and
congratulations of the marriage
hour give place to the sorrows
and sad offices of a dying-bed;
the festivities of the wedding
room to the scenes of death and
the grave.
Marriage and Death although
in such seeming contrast with
each other. the latter follows with
sure and fatal step in the path of
the farmer.
As husbands and wives must
be separated by death, it becomes
them to be faithful in all the du-
ties OF the marriage state, tnat
when the separation does come,
it may not be embittered by any
painful recollections Of unfaith-
fulness OF unkindness, either in
word or deed, on the part of the
survivor. Husbands, love your
wives; wives, love your hus
bands.
Husbands and wives should
walk together as heirs of the
grace of life Then their parting
will be only for a season, to be
followed by a meeting in that
world where death and parting
are unknown. How mournful to
be parted forever! P. S. c..

Marriage and Death.

A strange, unnatural conjunc-
ton of words! The two are as
opposite as the poles. Who thinks
of them at the same time? Mar
riage denotes union, JOY, happi
ness. Death produces separa-
ton, sorrow, desolation. The one
is an emblem of heaven; the
other an emblem of hell.
To the newly married pair the
path Of life appears bright and
beautiful. 1t is right and proper
that it should. Marriage is the
most intimate of all social rela-
tions, and the source of the great
est and purest earthly happiness.
Any failure to realize this is evi.

LIQUID MANURE.-Now is the
time to bring into requisition, all
the aids to plants growth. Liq-
uid manure is one of the best,
especially in the flower and veg
etable garden. An old tub or bar
rel that will hold water, set in
some by place with a bushel of
good manure, throw in a few
quarts of plaster, if you have it,
fill up with water, and after stand
ing a day or two it is ready for
use. Water the ground around
any thing you wish to see grow.
If it is quite strong, do not let it
get on the leaves. A little atten-
ton to these little things, will re-
pay the labor and can often be
done when you cannot geta full
supply of other manures. One
thing more, and it is worth remem-
bering. Save your soapsuds; ell
have this or ought to. This is
good for plants of all kinds, and
trees too. Scarcely a family but
wastes enough of this valuable aid
to plant growth every year to pay
for one or two good newspapers.
