1t was stormy, and cold, and

What is 1t worth to keep Horses, Cattle,
Sheep, &C., per week.

For horses it is worth as many shil-
lings per week as hay is worth dollars
per ton If hay is worth $40 per ton,
it is worth los per week; if SIS, 15s
if $50, 2Os. and SO on. This estimate is
for good hay only. If a man has a
large range and an open winter, horses
can be kept for much less. Sometimes
it is Necessary to feed some grain; that
should be an extra charge, unless a
good deal is fed then the nay is worth
less. Cattle will eat as much as horses,
but they are usually kept on cheaper
hay, red top, not so merchantable, and
coarse fodder; consequently they can
be wintered for two-thirds as much as
horses That is, if good hay is worth
$l2 per ton, it is worth IS. per week,
&c. tjftH. rs}-.
In winter, droves of cattle can be
fed for as many cents per day as the
hay ted is worth dollars per ton. Hay
at $40, cattle at loo, per day; SIS, at
l5c,per day, &c. And to pasture
them in summer it is worth two-thirds
as much as to feed hay in winter If
l5c, per day in winter, it is worth lOc
to pasture in summer, and, allowing 5
sheep to eat as much as steer, it is
worth &c, per day per sheep if it is
worth l0c, each to keep cattle. With
these rules one can easily determine
what it is worth to keep stock in any
place.

l have great faith in the benefits Of
thorough tillage-or, in other words, of
breaking up. pulverizing, and exposing
the soil to the decomposing action of
the atmosphere. look upon good,
strong soil Us kind of storehouse of
plant-food But it is not an easy mat
ter to render this plant-food soluble.
If it were any less soluable than it is it
would have all lcached out of the land
centuries ago. Turning over and fin
ing manure-heap, if other conditions
are favorable, cause rapid fermentation
with the formation of carbonate of am
monia and other soluble salts Many
of our soils, to the depth Of eight or
ten inches, contain enough heterogeneous
matter in an acre to produce two or
three thousand pounds of ammonia.
By stirring the soil and exposing it to
the atmosphere, small portion of this
nitrogen becomes annually available,
and is taken up by the growing crops.
And it is so with the other elements of
plant-food. Stirring the soil, then, is
the basis of agriculture 1t has been
said that we must return to the soil as
much plant-food as we take from it.
If this were true, nothing could be sold
from the farm. What we should aim
to do is to develop as much as possible
of the plant-food that lies latent in the
soil, and not to sell in the form of crops,
cheese, wool, or animals, any more of
this plant-food than we annually dcvel-
op from the SOIL In this way the
"condition" Of the soil would remain
the same. If we sell less than we de-
velopf the condition of the soil will

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. BY its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old AGE. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair splendid, glossy

COOPERATION AMONG FARMERS
In late number of the report from the
Agricultural Bureau, the following tru-
isms are presented -
The worn combination" seems to
have acquired a wicked significance, in
view of some farmers. Let them use
instead cooperation" if they prefer
it; but they must remember that there
is no human being entirely Independent
of all others. Without association there
would be neither churches nor schools,
government nor social institutions. In
other industries q large portion of the
work done and profits made are through
associated effort. There is no reason
why comparative isolation should lead
to positive hermitage. A great enlarge
ment of American dairying has come
from association; the monthly gather
ings for sales of farm animals in Madi-
son county, Ohio, have saved immense
sums from the clutches of middle men;
the Inauguration of market fairs should
be more general association for i'm
porting or buying animals Of the best
blood should be more numerous; there
should be a farmers library in every
township in the land.

CURING RENNET.

Cheese Consists of the caseinc of
milk, separated and condensed" TO
effect this separation, coagulation, or
curdling" must take place, and moth
ing has hitherto been found to accom-
plish this so perfectly as the prepared
stomach of the calf The several steps
are as follows: The stomachs, fresh
from the hands of the butcher, are
cleaned and sailed, and then closely
packed in a deep earthen vessel. In
this state they should lie for several
months. A few weeks previous to use
they are taken out and drained of all
brine, then spread out, sprinkled with
salt, and dried A couple of pieces,
say four or five square inches, of these
are stepped in pint of warm water, in
which has been dissolved half a table
spoonful of salt. Let this stand over
night, and the result will be quantity
of rennet sufficient for 100 gallons of
milk. -...s. y,s-!
Another method, on larger scale,
is to procure large jar, the larger the
better, in the bottom OF which care
fully drill three-quarter or halfinch
hole. In this hole fit large wood
en- tap, to be used in draining off the
liquor. Next make brine strong
enough to bear an egg. Boil half an
hour, and when quite cold, pour into
the jar, adding for every two gallons of
the wafer six wells or DreDared StOm-
achs, q sliced lemon, and an ounce of
saltpetre; other well-favored spices
may be added at pleasure, as they tend
to keep the rennet in good condition.
This should be prepared three or four
months before using. Great care should
be taken in all cases that the wells are
sound and sweet, and that the salt used
is of the first quality. Rennet thus
made will coagulate 1900 times its
weight in milk.

CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders Of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
yield TO its power; and cases OF Consump-
ton, cured by this preparation, are public
" known, SO remarkable hardly to be be-
licved, they not proven beyond dispute.
As q remedy it is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. BY curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, 1t saves
unuumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vnees the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incurable and too often fatal, if neglected. Tell
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. As n safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of Childhood, CHERRY PICTORIAL
is invaluable; for by lis timely use, multi
titudcs are rescued from premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
1t acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain
full Bronchitis, when they know how easily
they can be cured.
Originally the product of long. laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
is spared in making every bottle in the utmost
possible perfection. It may be confidently re-
lied upon possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

Failures in 1872.

Iu. their annual circular just
issued the Mercantile Agency Of
R. G. Dan & Co. give the follow
ing figures, showing the failures
reported by them for the last three
years
The figures exhibit an increase
in tue number of failures and n
mount of liabilities for 1872 over
the two preceding years, which Is
somewhat startling at first sight,
but little consideration will show
that a large proportion Of this in
crease is due to great fires in
Chicago and Boston, and therefore
is not chargeable to the Ordinary
casualties of business. 1t Is true
tile Chicago fire occurred III Octo
Der, 1872, but its effects were not
fnlIy manifested till the lightning
of the following year, and hence
/ the los, es caused thereby came un-
der the returns Of 1872. This is
observable by the Increase of liabll'
| tiles for the state Of Illinois, viz:
from S5,S20,O00 in 1871 to SILL,
100000 in 1872. Taking into
account these items, the exhibit is
not, after all, So discouraging
aud although the year 1872 ha:
not been, strictly speaking, a mon
ey making year, still it has no
been made disastrous by heavy
credit losses, except SO far as re
lates to the fires above named.
In 1872 there were AZ failures
in Tennessee, the liabilities a
mounting to 1869, 600. In ISL:
there were sc failures with liabili
ties amounting to 81 ,43S, 900
showing an increase of 335 pc
cent. in the number Of failures an
four hundred per cent. in the q
mount Of liabilities.

Fayetteville, Tennessee,


From the Nashville Journal of Commerce.
Having recently paid very
pleasant visit to this town, We
will give the impressions made
upon us.
Fayetteville is surrounded by
a very rich country and has a
verv Intelligent and cultivated
population, though by no means
so large as its natural advanta-
gts enable it to be. Its mer-
chants are very entcrprising,
business men. It's lawyers are
distinguished for their ability.
/ It's mechanics are skillful and
intelligent. Unfortun a ~
Fayetteville is in a great degree
deprived Of the. Railroad add

ON account of their superior
Railroad advantages take con-
siderable portion Of the trade

mately belongs to Fayetteville.
The railroad which they have
Extending to Decherd on the n

advantage to them and gives to
the town all the life which it has
The people there, however,are
now in strong hope OF getting
one or more lines Of through
RaiIroads-one from St. LOU:
in the direction Of Huntsville
Ala, and Atlanta, Ga, the 9th
er from Memphis in the direc
ton of Knoxville, Tenn. 1T
Fayetteville can get these roads
she will regain the trade OF
Lincoln county, which iszaot 1t
self of no small Importance, ant
this trade will be largely in
creased by the building Of thes'
roads, because the production
: Of the county will be so mucl
, increased. Every dollar ex
pended in the improvement
will be like the seed sown OF
good ground, it will bring fort
sixty and a hundred fold.
The people Of Lincoln, SO ia
; as we could learn, do not wis
their county which is natural,
one Of the best in Tennessee t
be merely tributary to othe

them, and they viii make de
