COMFORTS AND LUxURIEs OF THE FARM.-There
is class Of farmers who are living only to
grasp more acres. Their farms can never be
large enough, nor can their workmen or them
selyes ever do quite enough work. They can
not be satisfied with the income of a farm, nor
could they be with that of any other business.
But those who understand that the highest OBJ
ject of labor is not simply to make money, but
to provide the largest amount Of the means of
improvement and innocent enjoyment the
world affords, can make the pursuit of agrcul.
ture furnish more luxuries that really contrib
ute to our well-being, than any other employ
ment requiring an equal amount Of pital.--
Their farms not so large as to make slaves
of themselves and their sens, and their wives
and daughters are not worn out with incessant
drudgery. Their door-yards blossom with flow
ers, their tables are supplied with many vsrie-
ties of wel-grown delicious fruit, their houses
are made cheerful by the influence Of books
and music, and taste for the pure aud inuo-
cent epjoyments of life is developed in tn r
children. Here and there a farmers home ex
emplifes all the contentment and happiness
possible to a race doomed to labor and dsap.

" WHEN TaE Cows COVE HONE" MANY Of cur
farmers have wasted years Of valuable time
just because they did not teach their cows to
come home at night. Any one who has lived
or travelled in the country will remember the
familiar :. Co bns, Co hos !" of the farmers son
or hired man, as be endeavors to coax the cows
from the great pasture. We have had little
experience in these matters, and well remem-
Der how many times we have waded through
the brush and hogs looking for the cows, and,
boy like, we thought them dreadfullv contrary
animals; but we have lived long enough to
learn better, and now think that the biped was
the more contrary animalof the two. Boys, we
will tell you a secret that will save you great
deal of trouble, and it is this Every time the
cows are driven up at night or in the morning
give them good lick OF meal or bran, and our
word for it the cows will always be on hand at
milking time. Besides this. they will give more
milk, and forget to kick over the milk pail,
even if you do whistle little too loud.

change of New York recently a.,
of inspecting eggs sent to the market. 1t has
been in operation sufficient length of time for
the results to be ascertained although it has
not yet reached a point where it works with
perfection. The chief inspector reports that
the system has so far met with the approval of
both shippers and dealers. The system adopted
is as follows: Each shpmentofegg is sampled
on its arrival, by taking five or ten barrels and
examining the contents; the average condition
is held to represent that Of the entire lot When
an unusually bad barrel is discovered it is
thrown out so that it may not unduly reduce
the average shipment. The discarded barrels
are received on their exact merits. The cost of
inspection is 70 cents barrel, and the advan-
tages are so obvious, that shippers have so far
willingly submitted to the cost. One good re =.
suit is that shippers have already taken greater
care in preparing their packages for market
and it will be much to their profit if every one
would judiciously select and carefully pack all
the eggs they may ship for sale. Now that one
innovation is tolerated in the egg trade, we
may hope that the long needed improvement
of selling eggs by weight may be considered
Nothing is more absurd than selling eggs by
count, as some are twice as heavy and are worth
twice as much others. Weighing the eggs
would be more just.-Agriculturist

BUTTER.MAKER WITHOUT Cows.-An old
lady who lived on little place in the country,
not many thousand miles from Newburg, was
noticed for her many eccentricties. She was
worth quite little sum, but was exceedingly
penurious. Curious stories were told of the way
she turned, sometimes, an honest penny
Among the other peculiarities, she was known
to make and sell considerable quantity of
butter when not cow did she own or keep
The thing was not enveloped in mystery; as
at first might be imagined For-although we
don't say she MIXED her neighbors eows--we
do know that some one or two COWS of some one
or other of the farmers near by were found dry
in the morning. One owner of nice lot of
mixers was much exercised over his loss, and,
bordering on the thing, he remembered that
sometimes one, again two, of the cows in the
outside stalls nearest the door of his stable,
were always the ones who thus failed to give
the desired quantity of the fluid. A thought
possessed him. Among his COWS was hand
some young heifer. She was very fine animal
and gave the best of milk; but she was ugly !;
she was vicious; bad. Not one, not even the
members of his family, could go near her. No
one but himself. They usually put that COW
in the far stall, way in, behind the others
But he wouldn't do so this night, he would put
her on the outside near the door. As he did
this he said; Boys, Well see if that COW is
MIXED in the morning. The boys took the
hint and joined in the chuckle of the old man.
Well, to make a long yarn short, the next morn
ing the old lady appeared with her arm in
sling. 1t was badly bruised. likewise her
shoulder. She didn't use it again for months
She told how she had fallen down stairs, how
narrowly she had escaped broken neck the
evening before. But the farmer tells that his
heifer did it, Suffice it his cows don't 60 dry
any more, and haven't since. Neither was the
hefer MIXED.

Ordinarily, six or eight per cent. of adult
fowls will die of disease annually, when they
are kept for profit and given stimulating diet
to make them lay as much as possible. This
is not surprising when we reflect that our do
nestle fowls are in highly artificial condi-
ton. The production of large numbers of eggs
is unnatural, being habit induced by man,
and causes great strain on the constitution.
The artificial supply of food in unlimited al
lowance, with no necessity for exercise on the
part of the fowls, is another source of disease.
In the wild state every species of bird must
work for living and procure their food little
at time. 1t may be observed, also, that dur
ing the very part of the year when food per-
chance is abundant, the wild fowls are kept
from laziness by the necessity of feeding their
young, nature having fixed the breeding time
in the flush season as regards forage. Again,
the structure CT fowls is SO changed by ages of
breeding, that the wings and legs, and whole
sets of muscles connected Herewith are dwarf
ed by disease, while other portions of the body
are made relatively larger, which impairs the
general vigor by destroying to some extent the
natural balance of the organization. For these
and other reasons it is to be expected that the
ordinary death rate in the poultry yard will be
considerable. The fact that fowls will die of
old age anyhow, when five or six-at most eight
years old Tin most cases -renders it likely that
certain portion will die annually at an earlier
age. In conformity with this idea, geese, which
do not reach old age till twenty to one hundred
years, do not drop off in the earlier years of
maturity to as great an extent as hens.
The moral of the above is that noyices in
poultry raising need not worry over their i'll
luck, or mistrust that their management is any
worse than that of their neighbors, because,
perchance, few of their fowls of two, or three,
or four years old, die every summer. 1t is to
be expected unless the breed kept is uncom
monty hardy, and all the circumstances are
unusually favorable. Reduce the death rate as
much as possible by hygienic measures, rather
than by medicine. Give plenty of air and sun
shine, feed moderately, and promote exercise,
and expect some losses in spite of all precau,
