FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

BREEDING FROM You've SToCK.-A cor
respondent writes to Inquire if It is desir-
able to breed from slliess The answer
will necessarily depend somewhat upon
circumstances, ft 10 TO be noted i'm the
first place that it is perfectly Natural. If
they were wild they would breed; and
nature makes no mistakes. Why then
should they not be used for breeding pur-
poses Ia domesticated state? The only
reason that can se urged against it is that
our trestwcnt of the domestic animals in
jures its powers and retards its develop
ncnt, ard 20 dcubt this is often true.
Any systens of breeding or treatment
which antagoniEes nature should he aban-
N'oned ~ ewce, Improved or domestic
breeding is \ science oaly when it is an
aid to aSiure; and our domestic animals
ought TO be i'm better condition TO fulfill
their mission than they Nould be in the
wild state. A iIly that has come from
good stock, and 'has secn cared for with a
view to fully developing the system, is fit
for breeding NJ two years old. The period
OF CESSATION is'eleven months, and, there
fore, ttlc glyfrnal would be nearly years
old before the 'coit was foalcd. But il used
for breeding p9rposes at such an age it
will hardly do to work her during the
period of CESSATION. Here again nature
should 'be'srIr guile. If the animal were
in Inc wild state the system would have
TO beer only the burden of breeding. If
we Ktcmpt to increase that burden the
TcsStts may be Injurious both to the
Sp3ther and the colt. II we intend to
work filly, therefore, we should not use
her for breeding purposes, and If we did
mot so intend we should have no hest
fancy in breeding from her. Whatever
the age may be, the system OF feeling
should be such as to keep all parts Of the
system we'll supplied with nourishment,
but this Is particularly true OF young ami
mails. The food should be of character
to keep the bone and muscular system
strong and improving, and there should
be strict care to guard against feeding too
much of the heating fat producing foods.

How Farmera are Taxed.

Here is q statement of Representative Tur-
ncr, of Kentucky, showing few of the bur
dcns of the farmer. Under this tariff he rises
in the morning, puts on his common flannel
shirt taxed 30 per cent. his coat taxed 81 per
cent shoes taxed 30 per cent; and hat tax
cd % per cent takes the water from n buck
ct taxed 30 per cent, and washes his face and
hands in n tin bowl taxed 35 per cent; dries
them on cheap cotton towel taxed as per
cent. He sits down to his humble meal and
cats from plate taxed 80 per cent, with
knife and fork taxed 80 per cent drinks his
coffee with sugar taxed 6S per cent; seasons
his food with salt taxed 60 per cent, pepper
taxed CT per cent. He looks around ON his
wife and children, al taxed in the same way
takes Il chew of tobacco taxed 100 per cent,
or lights cigar taxed 116 per cent. And,
sir, even the sunlight from heaven that pours
into his humble dwelling must come through
window-glass taxed So per cent and yet
he thinks he lives in the freest government
under heaven. Then he starts to work, puts
bride taxed 80 per cent, on his horse, and
takes his horse that has been shod-the nails
used in shooting being taxed 80 per cent
driven by n hammer taxed 90 per cent, and
bitches him to plew taxed 45 per cent, with
chains taxed 90 per cent. and after the days
labor is closed and his family are all gathered
taxed 25 per cent, and knecls to God on an
humble carpet taxed 81 per cent, and he
rests his weary limbs on u sheet taxed As per
cent, and covers himself with blanket that
has paid 104 per cent. Nor do these grasp
ing manufacturers stop here, but even the
broom with which his good wife sweeps the
floor is taxed 80 per cent, and the cooking
vessels used in preparing her husbands fru-
gal meal arc taxed AZ per cent, and the soda
used to tighten his bread taxed SO per cent.
She sits down to her sewing with a needle
taxed 20 per cent, and a spool of thread tax
ed "a per cent, TO make calico dress taxed
So per cent, or if she wishes to knit warm
socks to protect her husband and children
from the bitter cold, she uses yarn taxed 1870
per cent, and thus daily and hourly must the
hard earnings ofthe laborcr go to satisfy the
manufacturer and add to his illgottcn
wealth.
