THEY have newway of treating the
broken legs of horses, which ought to be
generally known. A valuable horse in
Hartford, Conn.,, had its leg broken
short time since. The leg was carefully
set by an experienced surgeon, and was
covered thickly with plaster. When the
plaster "set," or hardened, it kept the
limb as immovable as If it had been
made of iron. Thus treated, broken
leg will knit together In a brief time and
become as good as ever.

WATER FOR SHEEP.-It Is believed by
some that water, as drink, is wholly
or quite unnecessary for sheep. No one
could made greater mistake than to be-
lleve the idea stated above. If sheep
are allowed access to water, they will be
as regular in drinking as other stock.

GOATS are pronounced profitable to
farmers, If for no other purpose than
clearing the land of noxious weeds,
which they will devour with avidity in
all stages Of their growth.

NETTING BlRDs.-The number of quais
shipped from this market is almost incredible
-already exceeding $4,000. In old colonial
times the farmers carried their trusty old rifles
to the log church, to the cross roads store-in
fact everywhere they went; but, now when the
shriil whoop of the red man no Longer sends
cold chill through the bosom of the bravest--
tho rife has been discarded and the partridge
net is hung upon the saddle tree, or swung
across The shoulder ofalmost every farmer that
comes to our city. and many bird has had his

hawk, but by the strong thumb of NJ. 1.

Pitied More Than Hated.

BY WILLIAM ROSS WALLACE.
Yes, we know, as you We Just told us,
That his lies on others told,
Whether in q subtle whisper
Or in accents loudly bold,
Are to all but chronic falsehood:
Still with you we cant agree,
Those same lies cause hurt to no one
Therefore let the chronic be.
There as one that is hurt by them.
One that grows still worse and worse.
Though while he may not know 1t,
By the ott-rcpeated curse.
WHO is that one ?" now you ask us
VOL, to be pitied elf,
More than even to be hated:
.sWhov'-it is the liars sell!

DR.. w. l.. Thompson has invented
machine for scattering sand upon slippery
sidewalks which ought to be adopted by every
town and city. 1t is simple, and at the same
time does its work we'll. The front part of a
cart body or pung is raised upon a sled, and
the rear is supported upon an iron shaft,
with small iron wheels, one of which has
cogs. to prevent slipping on the ice. The
body is raised just enough for the sand, with
which it is filed, to work down to the rear,
where it passes through q seive on to the side-
walk. The square iron shaft is constantly re-
volving, breaking up all the hard substances
aud frozen pieces of earth before they fall into
the seive. The seive is opened or closed by
brake in front regulated by the person who
navigates the team. public exhibition of
the working of this invention will take place
this morning at 8 o'clock, on Winthrop street,
near the Universalist church.
