Shall Farmers Sell Stock.

And now while have the pen In hand.
le, me give my brother farmers a word Of
warning against trying to winter more
sock than they have hay for. and irving
Messrs. Thing and Sears advice OF buy
ing western corn. Thing asks Sears what
he think. OF selling six feet ihree-ycar-old-
Tor $1,000 This j. not fair statement
yoke Of six feet. three ycar-olds that Is
worth wintering al all will command $50
% IN the market to-day; now to winter
esIn would take, at least, four tons Of hav
wortA one hundred collars. anu tpv quarts
Of meal each. from the lst OF November To
she lst OF May. worth $50 20. with four
IONS Of hay, elo0. %; and steers Al $50 90
they would stand him In the spring $50
-. Now taking the prices tor the pas,
Two springs they would be worth $3.50
But the greatest trouble lies here-there
is not one farmer in ten that can feed meal
In small quantities and save hay BY H. If
he Is feeding poor bay his cattle VIII ear all
She heartier for having the meal, and who
ever attempts to winter more stock than
he has hay for, will ind hard spot before
spring, and when all are short, who can
lac buy fromy
Another mistake the farmers are making
Is selling OF their neat stock at such low
prices and keeping from two to four horses
and colts A good cow will pay for her
keeping. but with the almost certainty OF =
light hay crop another year. there can be
but little gain on horses.-M. 4. ALLEN.

Last spring | imported . hundred or
two strawberry plants. A few days since
one OF those pernicious weeds, known a.
Prslanc, was found growing among
them.
This is the first weed Of this Kind have
ever seen east OF the Peuobscot In the
Western part Of the State Il is quite COM
mon. and one very troublesome in the gar
dens

ers gardens in Alfred, and was surprised

The name pHrsldHe comes from an old
French name The specific name derived
from the Latin olus. a PIT herb. indicating
THAT the plant was formerly used a. food. %
II is even now used by some people as
greens" The purslane is very tenacious
OF life, continuing TO grow even after hav-
Ing been kept out Of ground for weeks
This. a. well a majority OF the more
troublesome weeds, have come into this
country from across the Atlantic Almost

Broken MINDED Horses.

The narrow-chested horse is more sub

so. IL may be referred To hereditary con

Is there any cure for broken-wind:
None. No medical skill can repair the
broken-down structure OF the lungs
II. however. We cannot cure. we may in
some degree palliate broken-wiud: and,
first Of alI. we must attend carefully to the
feeding The food should lie in little COM
psss-pleuty Of oats and little hay. but no
chat. Chat is particularly Objectionable
from the rapidity with which it Is deyoureti
and the st,inach distended. Water should
be given in moderate quantities. but the
horse should not be suffered TO drink a.

Why CIRCLES PLEASE THE Eye

Why CIRCLES Please THE EyE.-The
explanation OF why the eye enjoys circles
is thus given by one OF Germany's scien-
lists
Professor Muller, in a course of lect-
ures in Berlin, offered 4 simple aud me-
chanical explanation Of the universal ad-
miration bestowed by these curves. The
eye Is moved in its socket by six muscles,
OF which four are respectively employed
10 raise, depress. turn to the right, and to
the lcft. The other two have an action
contrary to one another, and roll III. eye
on its axis, or from the outside downward.
and inside upward. When an object Is
presented tor Inspection, the FIRST act Is
that of circumcision, or going round the
boundary lines, SO As to bring consecutive
~ every individual portion OF the circum-
ference upon the most delicate and sensi-
tive portion OF the retina. Now, IL fg-
ures bounded by straight lines be present .
ed for inspection. IL is obvious that but
two or three muscles can be called into
action; and 1t is equally evident that In
curves of a circle or ellipse all must alter
nately be brought into action. The effect
then Is, that IL two only be employed. as
in rectilinear figures, those two have an
undue share Of labor; and by repeating
the experiment frequently, as we do in
childhood, the notion Of tedium Is instilled
and we form gradually q distaste for
straight lines, and are led TO prefer those
curves which supply . more general and
equable share Of work"

PERsPrRATIOS. The amount of liquid
matter which passes through the micros-
copical tubes of the skin in twenty-four
hours, in an adult person OF sound health.
is about sixteen fluid ounces. or one pint.
One ounce OF the sixteen is solid mat
ter, made up OF organic and inorganic SUBJ
stances, which, ii allowed to remain in the
system for q brief space OF time would
cause death. The rest is water. Beside
the water and solid matter, large amount
of carbonic acid, a gaseous body, passes
through the tubes; 50 we cannot fail to
see the importance Of keeping them in per-
feet working order, removing distinctions
by frequent application OF water or some
other means. Suppose We obstruct the
functions Of the skin perfectly BY varnish-
ing person completely with Q compound
impervious to moisture. How long will
he live! not over six hours. The expert
ment was once tried on . child in Florence
The Pope Leo, the Tenth, on the occasion
Of his accession to the PspaI Chair, wish
ed to have living figure to represent the
Golden Age, and SO he gilded . Door child
