1T is often remarked by strangers visiting
our State, that we show a larger proportion
of good horses than any other State in the
Union. This, we tell them, is owing to two
principal reasons: in the first place, we breed
from the very best stock; and i'm the second
place, our people use 2eriddn's Cdcdlyy Con-
dition Io,cders, which in our judgment are of
incalculable advantage

TALK AT THE TouET.-Every lady's maid knows
that the bewitchng beings who pave their triumph
ant way with conquered hearts, regard a splendid
head of hair the most effective OF all womanly fas-
cinations. They believe, and they are right, that
they can iGss0 as many beaux with the luxuriant
rngets and glossy braids they can kill at sight,
with their beaming eyes. Hence in their " toilet
talk among themselves and with their attendants
the merits of preparations for the hair are freely
canvassed, and the latest result of this discussion
seems to be the almost universal adoption of LYONS
KATHAIRoS as an article better adapted to promote
the growth and beauty of the Chief Glory of WO

This shows a very fair profit. o.

This shows very fair profit. On
farms where there is plenty of good
wheat straw, the sheep can be wintered
at less cost The profit does not come
from the increase of weight of sheep
so much as from the increase in
price, and provided the sheep are fat
enough in the spring to bring the highest
price, few pounds less tallow on each
sheep will make little difference in the re-
sult-certainly nothing like as much diff
ference as that between the cost of hay
and straw. So far as the amount of
nutrition is concerned, corn at fifty cents
per bushel is far cheaper than hay at $1S
per ton. The most prevailing folly is in
wintering sheep on straw alone. A little
corn in addition to the straw will keep
the sheep in good health and vigor, and
pay better than most agricultural opera
tions with which am acquainted.-J S.

Profits OF Sheep Feeding.

THINK we may estimate that for sheep
weighing about one hundred pounds it
takes about two pounds of hay per day, or
its equivalent, to keep the sheep alive and
healthy, without gaining anything in
weight. Give them one pound of corn
per day in addition, and good sheep
ought to gain two pounds per week in
live weight. The account with 100 sheep
will stand as follows

Il is remarkable that more attention is
not given to the subject of covering ma.

from too much rain. Thoss who have
given the matter particular attention
have found that manure so protected is
worth double that which is left out in the
open air. Two loads for one is profit

no question which so vitality concerns

that be does has reference to it. Straw

TEE LADY's RRPEETANCE.-On our way
from Wen to Hawkestone, We passed
house of which Mr. Lee told the following
occurrence: "A young lady, the daugh
ter of the owner of the house. was address
ed by a nan who, though agreeable to her
was disliked by her father. Of course he
would not consent 10 their union, and she
determined to elope. The night was fix
ed, the hour came. he placed the ladder
70 the window, and in few minutes she
was in his arms. They mounted double
horse, and were soon at q distance from
the house. After while the lady broke
the silence by saying. "Well, you see
what proof have given you of my al.
lection; hope you will make me good
husband" He WAS a surly fellow. and
answered gruffiy, Perhaps | may. and
perhaps not" She made him no reply;
but after q silence of some minutes sud-
denly exclaimed. "Oh, what shall we DO?
have left my money behind me in my
room.n Then said he, 1--WE must 60
back and fetch it," They were soon
again at the house. the ladder was placed.
the lady remounted, while the Immature
ed lover waited below. But she delayed
to come, and so he gently called, Are
yon coming?" when she looked out oil
the window, and said: Perhaps | may.
and perhaps not" and then shut down
the window, and left him to return upon
the double horse alone"
