Tko Cost of Poor Stock,

Probably fow farmers think of what il
costs to keep poor COW orr laud-p pike
hog. They readily understand that
good COW, or hog that will dress 2O0lbs.
at ten onths old, is profitable stock to
keep. but the fact that is gain is really
the amount Of loss Oh the poor stock, is
rarely considered. liza COW yields 200
lbs. of butter in year, which brings
$50. and another yield IS lbs, which
brings $22 80, the loss on the poor COW
is just 1877 so. The fact is. it would
be more profitable operation to give her
away than to keep her, for she does not
pay for her feed. The dairy business Of
this country is not on satisfactory foot,
ing BY any means, and sicily on accounts
Of the multitude Of posr cows, which are
kept year after year. This is matter
which should be looked after BY the
County Agricultural Societies. Every
one of these associations should introduce
improved stock, by means of thorough
bread male animals, into their localities.
1t is good work to elevate the ideas of
farmers aud to tester tas tie fer improve
ments, but to the great majority of the If
clients the possession of such stock, sr
The use of it, is quite unattainable, on
account of want of the necessary means.
BY making this special branch of their
operations, the usefulness of the soc ie,ies
would be much increased, and their i'm
portance greatly enhanced.

genius; but the tailor-bird of India has
actually done SO. The following is the
mode in which this winged mechanic
constructs its nest The bird having
selected two leaves of a size suited to its
wants, and picked up bit of cotton
thread, drills a hole in the leaves with
the beak, aud then, with the same TOOL,

thread from coming out, one pair of holes

TheY may not require ten hours sleep,
but time should be allowed to reN in

mischievous mistake for persons, old or
young, especially children, and feeble or
sedentary persons, to bounce out of bed
