THx CAUSE OF RusT IN WHEAT--It is getting
to be pretty general opinion among farmers
that the sowing of grass seed-clover or
timothy-witL the wheat in the fall, as has
been common in nearly every wheat growing
district here, we'll as north and east of us,
Is the cause Of the rust on wheat, by reason Of
the moisture which the grass retains affecting
the grain stalks when maturing. The grass
seeds, sown after the wheat crop has been
harvested, will produce, it is claimed, as good
crops the following year as if sown at the time
of the wheat, nine months previously We
should like to hear from our farmers on this
subject, as there is apparently two sides to it
and especially as it is one of decided impor.

The EXCELLENCE OF TIE FARMERs LIFE.-Ag-
riculture corresponds to that degree of exercise
which is the best preservative Of health 1t re-
quires no hurtful fatigue, on the one hand, nor
INDUCES, on the other, Incidence, still more hurt
full. During a throug of work the dilligent
farmer viii sometimes be early in the field but
this is no hardship upon an active spirit.
Agriculture is equally salutary to the mind
In the management of farm constant attention
is required to the soil, to the season, and to diff
fent operations A gentleman thus occupied be-
comes daily made active, and is daily gathering
knowledge; as his mind is never suffered to Lam
guish, he is secure against the disease of low
spirits.
But what chiefly insist on is, that laying aside
irregular appetites aud ambitious views, agricul-
ture is of all occupations the most productive of
coutentment ;he sweetest sort of happiness. In
the first place, it requires that moderate degree
of exercise which corresponds the most to the
ordinary succession of our perceptions. Fox
hunting produces succession too rapid angling
produces succession too slow. Agriculture
corresponds not only more to the ordinary sue
cessiou, but has the following signal property,
that farmer can direct his operations with that
degree OF quiekness and variety which is agree
able to his own train of perceptions.
The hopes and fears that attend agriculture
keep the mind always awake and in an enliven-
ing degree of agitation. Hope never approach
es certainty SO neal as 10 produce security, nor
is fear ever so great as to produce anxiety aud
distress. Hence it is that gentleman farmer,
tolerably skilifu, never tires of his work, but is
as keen the last moment as the first. Can any
other employment compare with farming in that
respect No other occupation rivals agriculture
in connecting private interest with that of the
public.
Every gentleman farmer must of course be
patriot for patriotism, like other virtues, is
improved and fortified by exercise In fact, if
there be any remaining patriotism in a nation,
it is found among that class of men.

MANAGEMENT OF SHEEP.-Whatever plan is
adopted for sheep barn, certain things are
Indispensable. 1t should stand on, and be sur
rounded by dry ground; occupy an elevated,
airy position, but one as little exposed as posi-
bic to prevailing Winter winds be of easy &C.
cess to water; possess ample capacity for the
number of sheep to be kept in it; and means
OF thorough ventilation. strawing or litering
sheep yards in Winter is a matter of prime
Importance. If sheep are compelled to stand
or move about in water or mud whenever out
OF doors, the most liberal feeding and good
management in every particular will hardly
preserve them in the best condition Where
sheep are kept exclusively on hay in oul
Northern States, the Merno and grade Merinc
require about one pound per diem for every
thirty pounds of their own live weight. Salt
and sulphur should be fed as often as once 8
week. Regularity in feeding is of the utmos
Importance. All experienced Aockmasters
concur in the opinion that sheep fed with per-
feet regularity as to time and amount, will b,
better on rather inferior keep, than on the bes
without that regularity.
