A Fish Pond on the Farm.

A farmer, who has the convenience, ask
ne, says an exchange whether he cannot
grow bis own nsh TO Oat by constructing =
pond, and how large II ought TO be. We
can answer that be can do so with little
trouble. In the first place he should have
plenty OF spring water upon his own premi.
ses, and the sizs OF the pond viii depend up.
on the volume Of the spriug. lit should be
what Is called a strong spring, il would be
sufficient 70 supply a pond Of IRON q fourth
10 q half acre In extent. The size must be
guaged In order that the supply Of water will
keep the fish 10 as good health IS at least no
ordinary -si4ed brook wLeTs fish abound, and
witch Is not supplied directly with spring
water, There Ahoald be q few deep holes 10
which to hide, and then again very shallow
places ~ which ts spawn. These latter
places should have a sandy or gravelIy bot.
tom, which should DO made by hauling the
sand or gravel from another portion Of the
ifrm should pot o. naturally at the bottom
At the Overflow Of the dam there should be
a screen 10 prevant the Ash leaving the pond.
The kinds Of fsh TO pat 10 such a pond Are
white catfish, cells, s1nash, mullets, II thsy
can DO had, spd baSk bass. Strange to say
this latter ash will do we'll In such a pond,
and multiply next to the catfish. They must

Mrs. Rachel Townsend passed away at her home at Lockport, N. Y., recently. She was an estimable lady, the wife of Rev. Sheldon C. Townsend, formerly resident of New Haven and much esteemed citizen. MT. Sheldon is now in his eighty year. The Niagara Falls Gazette of December 1st says:
 The funeral of the late Mrs Rachel Town send, wife of Rev. $. c. Townsend took place at Dickersonville last Friday afternoon. A large number of neighbors and friends of the deceased were present to testify their love for a most estimable lady. Among others were several well known Tuscaroras, some of whom had been great friends of the deceased and her husband for over half a century. They testified their love in the most marked manner for one who had often done them acts of kindness in their more youthful days In the audience was Mir. Thomas F. Pool, who has resided in the neighborhood almost seventy years (haying just passed his eigh- tieth birthday), and was next neighbor to the deceased for nearly sixty years. Several others, nearly as old neighbors, were pres ent, making it altogether rather remarka- ble occasion.
