to get something cheap. We have always
seen that the best is in the end the cheapest.
The Object of painting is to keep out mois-
turc, and thus prevent wood from decay
Hence paint which does this perfectly, is
the best, even if it cost twice as much a
cheap mineral or earth paint may be very
good, but when the question of renewing is
taken into consideration, it may not be SO
cheap or SO good as a paint that costs more,
but lasts longer. We have indicated such
in the zinc lead, but for the general uses Of
the farm, we think its mixture with some Of
the 0chres, mineral or metallic paints, would
be of great use.
In OILS, always get the best linse5d you
can ; never use petroleum. 1t doesn't pay
in the end by a great deal. Porgre or Men
dahen oil is very good for common work ;
but on houses, or anything nice, use Is pure
linseed as YOU can buy For farm utensils
on wood work, we would advise using the
best paint; tint it il you want color on
the iron or steel red lead is, perhaps, the
mas rial you can get. The farmer can now
if he chooses, 50 great have been the improve
ments IN the trade, buy his paints mixed up,
ready for use, under the pane II house aud
villa or household cJlors These save him
much labor in mixing and tiuting But be
should by all means avoid paints called
chemical as they have water mixed with
their oil, and cannot necessarily BE as good
as the others mentioned, which are mixed
with oil alone .-Ns1r York World.

BIGuI AND WRoSG WAY 10 MLE.-1he
L1sh farmers ia eHe publishes the fol
lowing from Prof Dick Of the Edinburgh
Veterinary College, On the manner or milk
ing.
The operation Is performed differently in
various parts of the country. In some the
dairymaId dips her hand into a little milk
and by successfully stripping the teat be-
tween her fingers and thumb unlOads the
uddcr This plan, however, Is attended with
the disadvantage Of irritating more or less
the teat, and rendering 5 liable % cracks
and chaps. which are followed by ndlmma-
ton extending u the rest of the quarter.
This accounts for the disease occurring more
frequently among the cows under the charge
OF ono mixer than 1t does in those under
the chargeof another AMI as this practice is
more common in some parts OF the country
than m others. it also accounts for the dis
ease being more common ia these parts
This plan of milking, where the irritation Is
not sufficient to excite the extent OF the m
namm alton to which have alluded frequent
~ produces a horny thickening OF the teat,
Il consequence Of the cracks and cit ps, which
renders it more difficult to milk than when
IN its natural state, and, at the same time,
predisposes to Inflammation when any cause
occurs to set it up. These effects may be,
and are almost entirely avoided by the sceu-
tifie plan Of milking adopted in other parts
Of the country, where, instead Of drawing
down or stripping the tcat between the
thumb and fingers, have stated, the
dairy-maid follows more closely the prin-
cpies which instinct taught the calf
She first takes a slight hold OF the teat- with
her hand by which she merely encirclcs it.
then lifts her hand up 50 as TO press the
body Of the udder upwards, by which the
milk csc apes into the teat, or ii, rs Is gen

sufferer and Cloudy, and his brightness
+ lighted up her countenance most wonder
/ fully as he softly whispered, Poor child
it is hard to lie here day after day, and
suffer. You wanted an active life in your
Masters service, and he has chosen other
wise for you. But never doubt, however
he may lead you. AS many as | love, l
chasten, He who notices the sparrow, and
marks the smallest flower OF the field, will
not forget his child And Sunshine moved
away, leaving the sick child comforted.
Meanwhile Cloudy had made his presence
known in the village school, prompting the
children to idleness, to fault fuding, to
hard words, and even to blows One lit
tie boy, greatly discouraged by Cloudy's
whisperings, kicked his arithmetic under
the desk, laid his head on his slate, and fell
asleep.
Sunshine found him out, and seating
/ himself on the edge Of his ear, called to
him, Jim, } i'm wake up, you lazy little
fellow pick up your arithmetic. Aud
slipping off his ear, he gave him little
flash, which made j i'm thoroughly awake.
Eight and nine make seventeen, not
nineteen, SO whispered Sunshine, CHANGING
at the slate; there is your mistake. And
softly patting the curly head, he crossed
over to a little fellow who looked as if he
might be Cloudy himself, so cross and
pouty Sunshine sat on his nose moment
and tickled him, skipped back and forth
over his lips, whirlod round and round on
his checks, danced jig IN his hair, shone
in his eyes till the little one smiled, picked
up his geography, and went to studying.

his brightness into the heart Of the tired

SALT FOR OAIs.-At meeting Of the
Farmers Institute Of Eastern Pennsylvania
recently, P.Morris exhibited a sample Of oats
grown by Ii. lngersoll, Of the Philadelphia
Society for Promoting Agriculture This
was OF extraordinary size and early maturity,
produced by the application Of SIX bushel :
Of salt to the acre. The stalks were much
larger than usually seen, the leaves broader,
and in every way superior to other samples
exhibited. Mr. Ingersoll stated that the
advanced condition Of his oats, as well as the
unusual size Of the stalks, was owing to the
fact that he sowed broadcast upon the field
SIX bushels OF salt to the acre after sowing
the oats. \ large quantity Of salt could be
used. but never greater than forty bushels.
Salt, to ce efhcaclous on oats, wheat or corn,
should be put on sandy soil, and not on 7tifl
clay lands. DIr. Ingersou had been using
salt for number OF years, and found that
not only the grain crops were benefited, but
the after crops, particularly clover.
