LIFE'S FORCES.

Whoever diminishes sleep dimin-
ishes lite. People of active, nervous
temperament wear out more rapidly
than slow folk, and require more
rest. They may seem to require
less, because they are so much in
terested in what claims their atten-
ton that after a moderate amount
of sleep they find it easy to be wide
awake. Energetic people need not
be afraid of sleeping too much.
Persons who teei uncomfortable at
ter sleeping may generally trace
their bad feeling to other causes
than too much sleep, which may
have been heavy by an unhealthy
condition of the blood for want of
ventilation or obstructured circula-
ton from improper clothing or pc
sition. No one should become so
fatigued by work of muscle or brain
that good nights rest will not fol-
low and afford complete recupera-
ton. No love of being considered
"smart," or of fine cookery, or bust
ness, or wealth, or pleasure can jus
tify perseverance in wearing out
life's forces without carefully afford
ing daily opportunity for recupera-
ton. Only the care of the sick can
excuse lack of so essential duty
as that of securing a sufficient
amount OF this great restorer, balmy
sleep. 1t should be taken regular
ly, if possible, when the light and
noise and hustle of the day cease.
1t is important to have several
hours sleep before midnight, and
better to sleep during the shade of
night than when the sun bids all
things be astir; yet it is better to
take nap during the day than not
to sleep enough.

INTELLIGENCE IN COWS.

The other morning, very sultry
one, two COWS came to our gate,
evidently on the lookout for some
thing, and after being at first some
what puzzled by their pleading
looks, | bethought myself that they
might be in want of water. No
sooner had this idea occurred to me
than | had some water brought in a
large vessel, which they took with
the greatest eagerness. The pair
then sauntered contentedly away to
a field near at hand. In about half
an hour or so we were surprised and
not little amused, by seeing our
two friends marching up to the gate,
accompanied by three other cows.
The water tap was again called into
requisition, and the new corners
were in like manner helped liberal

GOOD PASTURES.

Aiarmer should not be unwilling
to bestow all necessary care in es-
tablishing a good pasture, and, once
established, he should be equally
careful that it is neither injured nor
wasted. A good pasture of small
area properly attended to will be
worth more than a much larger one
when no care is bestowed upon it.
The damage done to the lands of
middle Georgia has been incalcula-
BILE where stock has been permitted
to roam the pastures; and perman-
ent when the soil was so wet that
the stock would sink to their ankles
CT deeper in the soft soil. One Of
the rules of intelligent farming that
is to be held invoiolable is never to
pillow pasture land when it is wet
(too wet). Some soils are injured
less than others by such a practice,
but the damage to soils in which
clay predominates in always so
great that it is strange that any
kind of a farmer cannot see that
the injury is far greater than any
value that may accrue from the
pasturing. 1t requires years to
neutralize the bad effects on the
soil that is trodden by cattle while
it is saturated with water. How
ever, much inconvenience may at
tend the observance of this rule, it
should never be violated. Selling
crops should always be provided so
that food can be cut and ted the
stock in their stalls, or lots, when
wet weather occurs. A small acre
of pasture may be made to go twice
as tar by not turning the stock into
it until after the dew has dried
off, and by letting them remain
long enough to get a good ration.
Forty-five minutes twice a day in
the pasture-in the morning be-
tween 8 and 10 o'clock, and in the
afternoon between 3 and 4 O'Clock
is sufficient. 1t is the trampling
and lying down, and the droppings
deposited, upon the grass or clover
that uses up the pasture and makes
it only one-third as useful as il
might be. This waste should be
avoined. Let the soil be fairly dry
before allowing them to go upon it
Never allow them loose when there
is any water standing upon it, OF
when the soil is saturated with mois
turo. Especially with winter pas
ture should this care be observed
never turning in the stock while
there is frost on the grass, or grain
or clover. One hour towards noon
is sufficient.-S. A. C. in Savannah
News.
