Potatoes for Horses.

once came near losing very valuable
horse from feeding him dry hay and oats
with nothing loosening. | have never be-.
lieyed in dosing horse with medicine, but
sometimes it is actually necess Try to keep the
horse in right condition. Many use pow
ders, but potatoes are better, and safer, and
cheaper, if fed judiciously. If those who
are not in the habit of feeding potatoes to
horses will try them, they will be astonished
at the result have known horse chang
ed from lazy dumpish one, to quick, ac.
tive, headstrong animal, in five days, by
simply adding two quarts of potatoes to his
feed daily. If very much clear corn meal is
fed they do not need so many potatoes Too
many potatoes are weakening, and so are too
many apples. When was a lad, was
away from school one winter and had the
care of one horse, one yoke of oxen, and one
COW, every one of which ! had to card or
curry every day. The horse had three pals
of water, four quarts of oats, two quarts of
corn every day he worked, with what hay he
wanted, and - stronger and more active
horse, Of bis inches, have never yet seen.

What Constitutes a good PIG.

The american Seine and Poultry Journa,
says: ave would generaize; as what can
be sac of a good pig of one breed, holds
equally good Of one from another breed, il
we except the size, shape, position of ears,
tail, etc, and marks. A good pig is one
that ias the smallest proportionable amount
of ohal whose nose, feet, and tail are short
est, generally speaking, and smallest, con-
sistent with proper lo,omotion, etc. A
good pig is one that has heavy, broad hams,
good deep chest, showing a healthy consti-
tuition which has quiet disposition, yet
one which is always ready to get square
meal, and which can digest and assimilate
all it cats in the quickest possible space of
time without imp. ing the digestive organs.
We do not want a pig which has a small APP
petite. The profit consists in getting your
grain and other food rapidly converted into
pork; the quicker the better. Never both
er much with restless pig, for quiet one,
with the same chances in his favor which
the restless one has, will soon loutstrip him
in the race for fat and pork.

Agricultural.
Why Seeds Fail.

In the first place we will examine
the cause of failure. 1t small seeds are
placed % deep, they either rot in the damp
cold earth, for the warmth necessary to their
termination, perish before the shoots cdn
reach the sun aud air; so that which was
designed for their support and nourishment
proves their grave.
Ii the soil isa stiff clay, it is often too
cold at the time the seeds are planted to eff.
feet their termination; for it must be un-
derstood that warmth and moisture are nee
essary to the termination of seed. Neither
of these will do alone. Seeds may be kept
in warm, dry room, in dry sand or earth,
and they will not grow. They may be
placed in damp earth, and kept in a low
temperature, and they will most likely rot,
though some seeds will remain dormant Il
long time under these circumstances. But
place them in moist earth in warm room,
aud they will commence growth at once.
Another difficulty with heavy soil il that it
becomes hard on the surface. and this pre-.
vents the young plants from Coming up :"
or d, during showery weather, they happen
to get above the surface, they become lock-
ed in and make but little advancement un-
less the cultvator is careful to keep the
crust well broken; and in doing this the
young plants are often destroyed. Ii still,
the soil where small seeds are sown should
be made mellow, particularly on the surface
10y the addition of sand and light mould. I'll
seeds are. sown in rough, lumpy ground,
portion will be buried under the clods, and |
will never grow; and many that start, not
finding fit soil for their roots, will perish. |
A f3w may escape these difficulties and |
flourish

Gen. sherman and Prayer.

number of clergymen called upon General Sher.
man, and among other questions inquired if they
could hold divine services usual in the church
es.
Certainly" said the General, 'Why not p
We are specially directed by the Army Regula-
tons to pay due attention to divine service on
the Lords day. My soldiers are all Christians ;
certainly, open yOnr churches, we will all 60"
q But" said dignified, sanity looking indi-
vidnal, "some of MS are Episcopalians"
well, that is good religion. No objection to
your religion; none whatever" answered Sher-
man.
But, sir" said the clergymen, eve are in the
habit of praying for the President and Congress /"
.Oh!" said Sherman, ''you want to pray for
JEFF. Davis, do youp
Eyes, sir" emphatically replied the clergy
man. o.
"All right" said Sherman, his brows lowering q:
pray for him, pray for the devil-pray for both
OF them-the one needs it much as the other
Is that all, gentlemen"
That was all-that was enough. They had
failed to induee General Sherman to make mar
tyrs of them.
