Great Pyramid Of Cheops.

1t is admitted to be the largest structure
on the globe reared by human hands. For
ages it has been described by travellers
and all imaginable uses have been assigned
to it, but in these latter days men of science
begin to confess the object is still a mys-
terry No doubt Cheops intended to be en-
tombed in it somewhere, but Herodotus
had the testimony of the priests and the
traditions OF antiquity that the hard heart
ed old Pharaoh's mummy was tucked
away-where he never intended his right
royal body should repose-to the day OF
judgment. Suggestions respecting the ex-
act purpose contemplated in the building
of that monster of ancient stone masonry
might be quite as unsatisfactory as any that
have been discarded. Therefore, without
troubling readers with notions based on
our own personal examination, it is quite
enough to show it's actual dimensions to
astonish those who have not seen it, The
original dimensions were 764 square feet
at the base, 4O8 feet high, covering 43
acers, rood and % perches of Gizeh, on
the margin of the Libyan Desert, now
about eight miles from the tight bank OF
the river Nile. 1t contains 80 OPS, 900 cubic
feet of rough split blocks of limestone. To
build another like it now, in the United
States would cost one hundred and sixty
millions of dollars, provided the Commits
sioners were honest men.

Sowing Grass Alone.

A writer in the Rural New Yorker says
Now, | do not believe in any of the old
time nonsense of sowing grass seed or clO-
yer with oats, rye or wheat, just because
somebody said 1t was the best way. If a
man wants field seeded with timothy,
SOW that and nothing else; and the same
way with any other kind Of grass, or even
clover, for any of them will grow far bet
ter alone than when crowded, shaded or
the soil about the roots robbed of its moist
ure by some coarse, rank growing grain.
OF course on fich moist soils, man may
seed down with grain and thereby save one
season; but it is poor policy to follow this
system on old, nearly wornont soils, even
if our fathers and grandfathers always dld
so. Then again, it is folly to mix clover
and timothy together in the same field, foI
they are never both In proper condition for
cutting at the same time, and little musty
over-ripe clover, mixed in with the hay,
adds nothing to its value By keeping
Doth separate each can be cut when in the
best condition for hay; and this rule will
mold good with all kinds of forage plants
OXEN. good OK should have long,
lean face and bright hazel eyes, which
show capabillity to receive instruction and
disposition to obey it, Large nostrils de-
note the capabiity of the OK to work on a
hot day. Very large horns at the base
denote laziness. Full breast, straight back
wide ribs-by which is meant the ribs that
round out nearly as wide as the hip bones
and wide gambril are evidence Of strength
Straight knees, broad toes, pointing straight
forward, show an OK can travel on hare
road or pavement. They should be wei
matched, especially in disposition ant
speed.

Breeding Geese.

When kept in good condition and fed
with somewhat stimulating food, such as
corn and oats, geese will commence to lay
very early, and can be set to the work of
incubation by the end of February or early
In March. To secure the eggs being fertile.
there must he one gander to every five or
six females It is always well to give them
separate apartments from those where
fowls are kept, and water should always
be accessible. 1t is best not to disturb the
goose when sitting, as, although steady
and constant sitter, she will leave her eggs
often enough to feed and drink. To save
her from going away too far, and so running
the risk of the eggs getting chilled, food
and water should be placed near enough to
be readily accessible, and yet not attract
the attention to the feeder. When the eggs
are hatched it is best to confine the mother
tor some days IN a coop or pen, placed
upon dry grass during the day, allowing
the gOsllngS no access to water beyond
what they need to drink-Which can be
placed in shallow pan-until they are
two weeks old, after which the mother and
Young may have their liberty upon clean
grass. The goslines should get meal mixed
with water at first, and few leaves of early
beets, turnips or cabbage cut fine will be
beneficial. When they get their full liberty,
they will live upon grass, but if it is want
ed to have them grow rapidly and become
plump and fat, they should get meal mixed
with butter milk or skinned milk once Il
day. When young the goslings are very
subject to die of cramps, caused by getting
wet and cold. Hence it is necessary to
insure them clean and warm nests at night,
and not allow them out in the mornings till
the dew is off, nor should they be allowed
TO remain out in cold, wet spring storms
They should never be allowed about muddy
barn-yards. A small grass paddock for
exercise ground should be set apart for
them until they can be turned into the
Stubbe after harvest, when they will fatten
rapidly. Country Gentleman.

Care Of Young Ducks.

l take three boards about foot wide,
and make yard either square or triangular
shaped, and put the hen and coop in one
corner of it. l keep the hen cooped until
the ducklings are about two weeks old,
when | give her her liberty. She will stay
with the ducklings some time longer. No
more than twelve or fourteen ducklingS
should be kept in one yard, as they are
apt to pile upon one another at night, and
smother each other. The ducklings should
be confined in a yard until they are well
feathered, for If they go through wet grass
they almost invariably die. The yard
should be moved every two weeks and care
should be taken to have a good shelter in
one corner. Poultry World.
How MUCH WILL KEEP HORSE. A
horse weighing from ten to twelve hundred
pounds will eat about six tons of hay, or
its equivalent, in year And we suppose
the real point to get at is, whether one can
keep his horse cheaper on some other pro-
duct than hay. This is an exceedingly
difficult question to answer-it depends so
much on circumstances. We shall not at
tempt to answer it fully at this time, but
viii merely say that. in our opinion, three
and half tons of corn stalks and two and
a half tons of corn would keep a horse a
year in fully as good condition as six tons
of good hay. We may estimate, also, that
it will take three and half tons of oat
straw, and two and half tons of oats to
keep a horse a year. A bushel of oats
weighs thirtv-two pounds, so that it will
take over l55 bushels and three and a half
tons of straw to keep a horse a year. 1t
would take about two acres of good land to
produce this amount Am. Stock journal.

Farm, Garden, and Household,
Germ Cob Meal for Stock

correspondent inquired two or three
weeks ago as to the value of the cob OF
Indian corn. We had not space in our re-
piy, at that time, to do more than to allude
10 it as comparatively worthless article,
aaying little more than the cost of grinding.
1t II, however, an article in pretty common
use, and it may be well to speak of it a little
more In detail A pig when put up to
tltten, if fed too exclusively on fine Indian
meal, which is a very hearty food, is very
liable to cloy from the fact that the meal
VIII lie in a solid mass in the stomach ana
not furnish q sufficient dstenslon TO Ihe
walls Of that organ, ana in the lhtesllhai
canal Animals that are fed upon highly
concentrated and hearty food, must have
something coarser and more bulky to be
fully satisfied and to keep the digestive or
tYqns in fun activity and health.
Now although the actual amount OF nutrl-
ment in the cob is very small, so slight that
il it were ground alone after the corn is
-helled OFF, no animal can be induced to
touch it, vet when it is ground with the
grain as We commonly find corn meal, 1T
undoubtedly serves the purpose of dstend-
iHe the stomach, and of giving to the food
the bulk which the animal requires. An OK
fed on meal will often eat coarse swale hay
with avidity to gain that distention which
q too concentrated food does not furnish,
and without which there will be the gnaw
iugs OF hunger.
Still there is trace of nutriment in the
sob itself Dr. Salisbury, who wrote a
prize essay on Indian corn for the New
York State Agricultural Society, said that
by rejecting the cobs of one thousand
pounds of dry ears, about two hundred
pounds of organic matter is lost which
consists OF thirteen and one-half pounds
Dt sugar and extract, one hundred and
twtnty-seven and one-half pounds of fibre,
forty five and one-half pounds of matter
separated from fibre by weak solution of
potash, one and ondhalf pounds of albu-
men, twenty eight one hundreds of pound
of caStin, two and thrtetenths pounds of
gum or deXtrine and seven and three tenths
pounds of glutnOuS matter. Hence the
cob although not rich in nutrtive matter,
IAN 10y no means be said to be destitute of
those proXimate principles which go to
support respiration, and sustain animal
heat, aud those which are capable of being
transformed into nerve, muscle, &c, aud
the phosphates which contribute so largely
10 the formation of bone" IT. is probable
that a mixture Of the cob with the meal,
secures in many cases, a more complete
digestion of the food This is an incidental
advantage which is independent OF any
slight nutrment there may be in the cob IT.

The Fishermen.

Three fishers went sailing out into the west
Out into the west as the sun went down;
Each thought of the woman who loved him the
best
And the children stood watching them out OF
the own
For men must work, and women must weep
And there's little to earu, and many to keep,
Though the harbor bar be moaning.
Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower,
And trimmed the lamps as the sun went
down:
And they looked at the squall, and they looked
at the shower,
And the rack 1t came rolling up, ragged and
brown;
But men must work, and women must weep,
Though storms be sudden, and waters deep,
And the harbor bar be moaning.
Three corpses lay out on the shining sands
In the morning CLEAN as the tide went down,
And the women are watching and wrnging
their hands,
For those who will never come back to the
town;
For men must work. and women must weep
And the sooner it's over, the sooner to Sleep
And good by to the bar and its moaning.

Depth of Soil, and Length of Roots


The average depth of New England soil
Is probably somewhere between four and six
inches Some of the alluviAl, or of the
heavy upland soils, will he more than that,
but the plains and much of the sandy loans
viii be less. In the highly cultivated parts
Of Europe, the average depth of the soil is
pnt down at six inches. Under proper
cultiVation any soil can gradually be made
deeper and the deeper it is, the more Ink
uriantly plants will grow BY the most
careful observations and experiments made
iu Germany, it appeared that if a soil six
inches thick was worth fifty, that seven
inches thick was worth fifty four, so that
going back in the scale, that only three
inches thick would be worth thirty eight
little deeper ploughng annually, and a
regular increase OF the vegetable matter,
would constantly increase the depth of the
s0il,and as constantly increase the value of
the crop. The Importance of a deep soil
viii be seen, when it is noticed that it costs
about as much 10 work a soil of three
inches as it does to work one of six, and
that the crop on the latter would usually be
double of that on the thinncr soil.
Where circumstances are favorable, the
roots of plants penetrate the soil much
deeper than they are usually supposed to
40. IN certain places. the roots OF red
clover will 60 down six feet BY careful
examination, Schubert found the roots of
Winter wheat as deep as seven feet, in
night soil, fortyseven days after sowing.
The roots of clover one year old, were three
and one-hali feet, those OF two wears Old
clover, but four inches longer A parsnp
will ordinarily grow in a common soil to
about one foot in length but dig hole five
or six feet deep, fill it with rich loan, SOW
d few seeds on the surface and some of the
plants will be quite likely to find the bottom
of the hole
One of the great advanta es of deep
soil, therefore, is large accumulation of
roots; these decay, constantly increase the
amount of vegetable matter iii the soil,
cOunteract the effects of drought, and
greatly Increase the amount of crops. New
England Farmer.
