TIE PULsE.-Every person should know how to ascertain the state of the pulse in health; then by comparing it with what it is when ailing, he may have some idea of the urgency of his case. Parents should know the healthy pulse of each child, as now and then a person is born with a peculiarly slow pulse, and the very case in hand may be of tllat peculiarity. An infants pulse is 140; a child of seven about SO. and from 20 to 50 years it is 70 beats a minute, declining Co 60 at four score. \ healthful grown persons beats 70 times in minute; there may be gc0d health at 60. but if the pulse always exceeds 70 there is "a disease, the machine is working itself out; there is a fever or inflammation some where, and the body is feeding upon itself, as in consumption, when the purse is quick-that is over 10-gradu- ally increased with decreased chances of cure until it reaches no or l20, when death comes before many days. When the pulse iS over 70 for months, and there is q slight cough, the lungs are affected. The pulse decreases when a recumbent position Is assumed for any length of time, and is increased by exercise, stimulants and the presence of food in the stomach.

Feather Eating Hens.

Mr.. @. ii. Gilbert of Woleott, states that
his hens pull out each others feathers and
eat them, aud inquiries for the cause and
remedy. We have submitted his letter to
our poultry correspondent at South Acworth,
who replies as follows: Es.
Mr.. Gilbert is in trouble. There is moth
ing that will make man believe in total
depravity as quick as to find his hens pulling
feathers, aud try to cure them. Various
reasons have been given-such as lack of
animal food-thirst, etc, but hens that have
plenty of water and scraps will learn the
habit. Usually, heas that are kept confined
aud are fed high, and have nothing to scratch
in, are the ones that pull feathers Fowls
with crests are more liable to get at it. The
habit is easier prevented than cured. Hens
need something bulky to take the place of
grass. Rowen, clover hay or light corn fodder
make good substitute. If one hen begins
to pull feathers, seperate her at once from
the flock, and if common hsu-cut her
head off at once. If valuable, either burn
with small red hot iron SO her bill will
come together only at the poiut-aud
but little at that, or burn q little at the
point SO she cannot hold on to the feathers.
1t is best TO watch the hens aud see how
they 90 to work. Some will hold the feather
with the sides Of the bill others will take
hold at the tip. Care must be taken to
burn only the thin edge or rim of the bill.
1t will not hurt them. If Mr.. Glbsrt's hens
have all learned tho habit he can prevent it
only by burning the bill--Next fall he
should kill eUery one of the old hens. l
had game pullet begin to pull feathers al
the poultry show (the cock is the one they
begin On) and had to put partition in the
coop. After got home put them together
not thinking she would go at it again. When
fed the hens at night the cockerel was
trimmed for fighting. l was wratby, and
in hurry, so took my knife and pared
her bill. She has behaved we'll since. Thai
is the only case have had, but have seen
plenty Of others. JOHN G. McKEES.

What Goosoberries Shall We Grow.

Many continue to deprive themselves Of
the pleasure Of having the gOOseberry in their
gardens owing, to a widespread misundeF-
standing that there is in regard to it, They
are all familiar with the appearance of the
old foreign kinds, that, covered with mildew,
seem to have encased themselves in armour
to ward of attacks from the great destroyer,
man. This cunning mAnWuvre, If it can be
so called, succeeds admirably, as the fruit is
usually left TO hang on the bushes almost un.
tasted owing to their very uniuViting appear
anOo. But this need no longer be the case,
thanks to the careful experiments Of some Of
our American horticulturists. Within few
years several new seedlings have been placed
before the public, that fully make amends
for the faults of their English cousins.
Among those for which have the greatest
demand, and that 6nd to be most desira-
BILE are the following named varistles,-all
Of which have considerable merit, and are
worthy Of more general and extensive plant
ing.
The FIRST to be mentioned -"Downing's
seedling"-was originally brought to notice
by the Wsll-known amateur and authority on
fruits, Charles Downing of this state. 1t is
a Seeding of the "HOughtOn" to which it is
very much superior in size and very much
more acceptable for garden cultivation. The
bushes are strong growers with stout, thick
set limbs or canes, aud have the habit o.
retaining their leaves until late in the fall

their fruit plants to prsform the double dut!

AZ Chelsea, Thursday and Friday, February
10 and II.
The meeting was called to order by Col.
j. b. Mead OF the board. Mr.. Ezra Walker
of Chelsea was chosen to preside, and Mr..
Pi.kin was elected vice president.
Mr. Walker made few opening remarks
in which he spoke of the farmers AS men of
leisure aud great readers, but that reading
did them little good as qualifying them for
their calling. Agriculture seems to be de-
clining, aud the thrift and general appear
anCe does not appear to be improving. The
work of the board of agriculture is to awaken
an interest on these subjects and to inaugu'
rate spirit of improvement. They come
now to hold a meeting among US, and for
which we bid them hearty welcome. Farm
ers, assure you this is your meeting, and
We bid you to take part in it, and help to
make it interesting aud instructive.
Mr.. Hubbard seconded the motion in re-
gard to its being farmers meeting.
Hon. Q. w. Clark Of Chelsea then read .
paper upon "The Home, the Fireside and
the Work Shop"
Mr., Clarks paper was considered very
elaborate and instructive. He gave de
scriptiOn of the condition and dispositions o
men in ancient times, the commencement o
agriculture, and its gradual modification
and Improvements to the present time. III

And yet the difference in digestive capacity
Of animals Of the same weight is 80 very
marked and there is so wide a variation in
the secretive glands which draw from the
arterial blood the needed elements, and con.
vert them into various qualities of milk, into
bone and muscle, and the various tissues Of
the body, that the question of size, so long
as extremes are avoided, is hardly second.
AIRY consideration in selecting dairy COW
for the purpose of obtaining large return
for food consumed. When dairymen and
farmers get over the notion that in selecting
COWS for the dairy, it is expedient to procure
cows of any particular size, color, or breed,
the better it will be for them.
The good COW is gross feeder, whatever
her size or breed. If she has an appetite
which will accept any food offered, 80 much
the better for the dairymau.

Feeding Mich Cows.

For two months past l have practiced
feeding at FIVE in the morning. Hay first
and roots and bran. after the hay is eaten.
Turn out and water about eight and return
to the stable after 4 short time out for drink
and exercise but not long unless the weather
is fine. feed all the roots and braa for the
day at one feed.
The secend feed of the day is at 2 p. IN,
hay only and all they will eat until four
o'clock, at which time | water aad return to
a warm stable for the night. | think my
fifteen cows do better by this method, than
to feed three or four times as | heretofore
have done. sell milk and am able to know
when the cows are doing their best. l con-
slider one peck of roots, one quart Of corn
meal and three quarts of braa, together with
all the June or autumn cut [rowenl hay they
will eat as good liberal winter feed for an
average sized milch COW. My mowings are
all cut twice in the season. Would bc glad
to cut before it is fairly headed out. Grass
is not cut too early but mostly too late
Cut it early and cut the second time. Th'
cheapest feed that can raise is dried gras
and fodder corn. Roots cost mo most bu

instead of less. Bran is worth all it cost
for feed, and also all it costs as a fertilizer

A Query.
NorUfeld, "

In some remarks appended to an article
from me in the FARMER Of March 3, you say
that if your observations are correct the di.
gestivc capacity aud temperament Of the ami
NAL eIerts greater influence over the amount
of food required to sustain life, than the
weight of tho animal does. l grant this, but
ask if the digestive power and temperament
of the animals are the same, will not the
amount Of food required be in proportion to
the weight of tho animals. In writing the
article the idea was to take average animals,
aud as yet 1 think the premises correct.
Extremes Of course can be selected that will
destroy any calculations. And now, Mr..
Editor, if your views do not coincide with
this, please explain the matter, as my object
in writing thisis for information and improve
ment not for criticism. s. G. Foster.
There is no doubt that weight Tor size,
of the animal has an influence on the quan
tity Of food necessary to sustain life. Bu
We have seen SO many small animals which
consumed more food than large ones, with
smaller results, a. To convince us that it can
not be safely laid down as a principle tha
the consumption Of food to sustain life is il
proportion to live weight. 1t may be tina
digestive capacity, temperament and al
other things being equal, the quantity OF foo
necessary would be in proportion to liv
weight, or nearly 50. BscAuOo it takes
little more fuel to maintain the animal hsa

Remedy for Pulling Wool.

In the report of the discussions on sheep
husbandry at the Pomfret meeting, saw
that two remedies were spoken Of to prevent
sheep from biting aud pulling their wool,
neither of which will fully cure. 1 have for
ten or twelve years used corrosive sublimate,
and found it sure cure in every instance.
l use for flock of about seventy-6Ve one
half ounce year. If flock of that num-
Der pick badly perhaps one ounce might be
required. dissolve One.fourth OF an ounce
in one pint of water; when dissolved apply
from bottle with quill through the cork

places round where they pick. One aPPli-
cation have found sufficient for one season,
