Ingenuity Of the Swallow.

The following incident affords an
illustration that birds, in common
with animals, possess something more
than instinct: AS a farmer in 4
neighboring town was getting in hay,
he noticed an unusual commotion
among the swallows, which had built
long row of nests under the caves
of his barn. They appeared greatly
excited, flying rapidly about and fill
ing the air with their cries of distress.
AS the load upon which he was rid
ing passed into the barn, he saw a
young swallow IN a nest directly over
the door had caught its neck in a
crack between two shingles and was
unable to free itself. He stopped his
team and set the young bird free, re-
storing it to the nest. Upon his re-
turn to the barn with hisnext load of
hay, noticing that the swallows were
quiet, he examined the crack, and
found they had completely filled it
with mud.
This was done for a purpose. The
peace of the community must not be
disturbed again. If a member of the
tribe contemplates suicide, it must
not be set in sight of the young ones.
At all events, the crack between the
two shingles was trap endangering
the lives of some unfortunate mem
Der of the swallow family, and may
be filled up, and with will, the com
munity set about it. Can reason go
beyond this? - Field, Iurf and
Farm.

Rules for Farmers.

A correspondent suggests as some
thing "that would interest and profit
many young farmer readers" that we
would prepare and publish 100 rules
for the attainment of success and
wealth in farming. A much smaller
number, if faithfully adhered to, will
contribute materially to success, and
insure with economy and good habits
sufficient wealth to satisfy the reason
able desires of anyone. Among them
the following may be mentioned:
l. Select good land and reject
sterile, no matter how cheap.
2. Raise no weeds, but only pro-
fitable crops.
8. Underdrain, wherever needed.
4. Adopt good rotation of crops
and adhere to it.
5. Prepare sufficient shelter for
domestic animals.
6. Keep everything that is con-
nected with domestic animals neat
and clean.
7. Plow well, cultivate well, do
all work well, and not sllpshod.
s. Accumulate and save manure,
and apply it properly.
8. Procure good implements and
take care of them.
10. Raise good animals and take
care of them.
The preceding ten rules will be
of much use if carried out, and we
add two more, to cover them all,
viz:
IL. BY weighing and measuring,
and with careful accounts, ascertain
just what every crop or every animal
cost yon, and find out just what is
the market value of each.
Employ then those crops and ami
mails which you find give you good
profit, and drop all else.
You can thus have the satisfaction
of knowing that you are carrying out
Richardc's two famous rules for &C
curing wealth, namely:
l. Cut short your losses.
2. Let your profits run on

The Michigan Farmer gives some
sound advice in the article below, to
sheep raisers. 1t says:
There is some anxiety among sheep
breeders to know what course to take
with their sheep. What shall we do
with them? ask they.
We answer, take steady, conserv-
alive course, pursue it steadily; don't
be carried away with the cry of cheap
wool, but aim to keep flock of sheep
on your farm. There are many con-
siderations in favor of keeping few
sheep on every farm. They are good
fertilizers, they afford some variety
to farm life, they are a food produc-
ing animal, their wool always sells
for cash at some price, and they are
easily handled, and their products
cheaply marketed.
1t is in June that about 100000
will be paid to farmers in this State
for their wool. This is just the sea-
son they want money to commence
their harvesting. At this season they
are busy, they have few days to
market their wool and get little
money, and this gives them capital
for the summers campaign. No crop
can fill or take the place of the wool
crop.
We understand that there will oe
4 disposition to sacrifice sheep on &C
count of the low price of wool. We
recollect the scare OF 1869, and we
also recollect that those who held on
to wool production made the money,
and we apprehend this will again be
the case.
We do most earnestly recommend
that wool growers Gull their flocks
and turn off all inferior, non-produc-
tive sheep, but lot no one imagine
that the bottom is about to fail out
of the business. There are altogeth-
er too many sheep shearing D to 3
pounds of wool. No sheep should
be retained that shears less than four
pounds of wool. Turn off all this
low kind of trash, and the best time
to test their value is at tie time of
shearing. Then mark every sheep
for the SHAMELESS that does not come
up to the standard. 1t is time wool
growers got entirely through with
the use of scrub rams and scrub
ewes. 1t is time that all half-bred
bucks were sent to the shambles, and
there should be n loud call for the
best thoroughbred rams; there should
be an advance along the entire line
of sheep breeding. We wish our
voice could reach every tlock-master
in the State with such potency as
would compel, this season, the
slaughter Of every scrub ram in the
borders of the State.
The best tlocks are the ones that
are gong to pay, 1t is with sheep
rs it is with swine or with cattle
there must be selcctions-focks must
be culled-some pains must be taken
with breeding stock. All we can
say is, let the man who has good
flock of sheep keep making it better.
Resolve to add one pound of wool to
each fleece.
