To the' farmer of rtmplcTTienhs the sufijcct,"nt first, ' will seem of too small dimensions to ilevofo even the Unto necessary for'n careful oxninlri atlon ; but the subject, oneo entereil upon, will enlnVgo uniler cnrefiil In vestigation) anil assume proportions equal In magnitude, Interest and Im portance, with any ono of the many fields of agricultural pursuits. To tbo farmer of medium or limited means, it will be found a subject de serving their careful and critlcaUox amtnation comparing It In all points wtlh other pursuits. After such boihi parison' and examination, the thoughtful, painstaking tiller of the soil, Will, I feel assured, find a mine! 01 woaitn reauy 10 yieiu us treasure in great bounty to him who will dls criminate and ren.Jze,by close scruti ny and that attention to the Uttld tilings (that makes tbo successful ml nerfarmer, breeder, or professional man)-the difference bewcen the sand under, his feet and tho grains of gold mixed therewith, giving n steady and Buro Murco of Income, which, pursued with painstaking and stead iness, leads soon to an abode of enso and Independence. A termer who ran rcnlizo'a living from a small farm, will find that for ovory dollar made cither from cropx, cattle, poultry, horses or hogs, on such farm, lie cau by tho sacrifice of one-sixtieth of tho time devoted thereto, increaso his Incomo at least fifty percent.; and where ho has not tho necessary capital to start on, can, upon tho trilling outlay of five doll? ars, in threo or four years 'grow a capital, tho incomo from which will oqual that realized from any other department of his farm. r As far as I know, that farmer who by in venting tho sum of two thou sand dollars in land for cultivation, horses, stock, tools and labor, can, with tho addition of his own exer tions the entire time,7 clear therofrom a net profit of thirty per cent, per annum, and upon larger amounts in vested a liko percentage is doing rather hotter than the avcrago of small furiiiern, leaving everything in as good condition at tho end of tho year as at tho beginning. One quar tet of tho amount of capital invested In bee-keeping, and conducted with equal skill, at tho sacrlflco of only one-half of tho time, will produce during tho reason equal in nil ro Spocts n net profit of not loss than ono hundred and twenty-nvo per cent., and in addition thereto' an increase of capital of from thirty to seventy fivo per cent., thus showing more gross profit from tho investing of fivo hundred dollars in ono case than from investing two thousand In tho other. Thero la one other view of this iiibject that is also worthy of corishl- crrttlon which Is that this Income or profit Is realized solely from protect-' ing and giving proper care to insects, whoso whole aim of life. Is to gather and garner within the reach of man those drops of nature's nectar that othorwlso would perMi and w wasted, but when gathered tend to render our country n "land flowing with' milk and honey," and us tho good housewife may he known by careful and frugal administration of tho bounty (mured hitd l)er lap by tho provident and' bountiful lord of her home, so may tho thoughtful hnd In telligent political economist be known'byhh care and'solicihtdo for tho saving and gathering of tho bountiful harvests furnished for man', use through '(lie provident cam of tho Lord of tho universe. !"!! mini ras um m maikrt. The best breed of fowls to rear rear for $ 'AQt,or as cgg-producers, dAmA nliiMiii niutAirlttv w ilffniA.I thebesWrs ltruiaW,e reverse. Oar own opinion Is that for a market fowl, the Brahma and mm a TTr 1 r" y Cochins will, under almost all cir cumstances, provo tho most desirable, they being. tho less liable to disease, feathering, up quickly, and can bo bred to weigh, at from four to six months of nge,ioight to ton pounds'. Another good fowl Is the Dorking (cock) crossed with' tho Brahma (hefl). Tho flesh of this cross is sweet and nutritious, and acquires at an early ago tho plumpness of the Dorking at maturity. Thero are other "breeds, however, which arc said to bo desirable to rear for thota blo. Many claim that the French breeds of fowls aro of this number, but this wo very much doubt, as their flesh lacks tho buttery, golden color that attracts tho eye of 'the epicure. They may provo Valuable as egg-producers, but they hick many good qualities hs a tablo bird. Dorkings uro undoubtedly at' tho head of the list as tablo birds, but of lato years have become so subject to disease that wo question the feasibility of roaring them profitably for market In our changeable northern climate. As egg-producers the llamburgs aro claimed to stand at tho hoad of tho list. This claim we aro prepared to dispute 5 for, as winter layers, wo find that tho Urahma, Cochin, Leg horn, Poland and Houdan stand rel atively in tho position here named. That tho llamburgs aro good egg producers wo admit, but that they aro any better than n number of non setting fowls, so-called, wo deny. The richness and mcatiness of their eggs aro not to bo comimred with thoso of tho Poland, Leghorn, Hou dan or Urahma, and their eggs lack tho sizo of thosb named. All things considered wo havo no hesitancy in saying that for eggs we should namo tho Polands ; for the tablo Dorkings, and for early marketable chickens BrahmasandCochlns.-iVo;;(i' Prac tical Jhult'ry. CaMfllai Sart..Horn Herd Book, It Is important that Short-horn breeders in tho United States under stand that tho committee on tho pub lication of tills Herd Book havo de cided to admit to registry, as thor oughbred, all Short-horns having 15 sixteenths or nioro of Short-horn blood, or In other words, that our consecutive crosses of Short-horn bulls constitute a thoroughbred, whatever blood there may be back of these. The comraitto clto, In Justification, tho authority of tho British Herd Book; but thero Is a vory decided diff erence lu tho two cases, of which thn Buffalo Live Stock Journal properly marks: "The English Short-horn Herd Book prcsunus that tho ances tors beyond these four or 15-lttth crosses,' are tccll bred Short-horns of tho ancient original stock not re corded in their Herd Books, of which thero aro multitudes in England, that being tho land of their ancestry, tiirio immemorial ; while In Ameri caCanada as well as tho United States beyond such four known crosses, wo havo nothing to fall back on but the native cattle, composed of nny and 'everything kept by tho or dinary farmer. "It will bo readily heen by every breeder of jwc Short-horn blood thut a wretched system of bastardy will not only follow, but be thus drectly encouraged, so long as grade cattle with only 10-10tlis of pure Short-horn blood can bo recorded in their Herd Books, ut'h a record j however much satisfaction it may give to tho Cana-, dlau Short-Hor . breeders, who en courage it, can inect with Httlo ap-, probation on this side of the bonier." it will therefore be highly proper for .purchasers of Canadian Short horn'stock to scrutinize the pedigrees carefully, so as to know whether they are buying gnvJes or thoroughbreds. It Is not' likely that those of our breeders who lia've learned to hcare at a' pedigree tracing to the "Impor tation or '17," wijnaJco .kindly toca- 'dbn iV 7 " .n Farmer. jhgjJ &fflJJB5 o the New York CSuwtf"Cowiiiim- envnnd all were rejected. fattl Trnnyson.
