HEALTH OF FARMERs.-According to
the opinion of those concerned in the
preparation OF the elaborate report of the
Massachusetts, board of health, farmers,
whose longevity has been much extended
during the past twenty years, might live
much longer than they do, by exercising
more care in choosing, cooking, and eat
ing their food, in avoiding overwofk and
exposure to change of weather, and the
use of foul drinking water. Their food
consists too much of pork, pies, and sale
ratus bread and cakes. The cookery is
bad, and meals are eaten too quickly for
good digestion, when work hurries
More vegetables and fruit should be
