Wtttruver you biiog a new pig on the farm. shut it up by itself for at least three weeks, until you have ascertained it to be perfectly healthy. The pulling of feather is a pure habit, which i brought On in fi n k that have not enough to occupy their time and attention. When they once get a la-te of the meaty end of the fe.ithfir they are liable to extend their picking to something more than feathers, ttking advantage of the naked ondition of their companions by nipping at ex weed bloody parts, and allowing the poor hens no peace till they or their male are taken oat of the pen. During the winter con-1 rlnenieut of fowls they should be kept a busy a possible by scattering their grain among leaves and chad", so that hard scratching will be neceat-aiy on their part in order to got enough to eat. This will take their time and be liable to keep them out of mischief. As a further prevention, some trim ihe edges of tho beak, e that when they attempt to pull a feather it will slip through and they cannot bold it. Another remedy i to put on tlio fowl an .appliance called the poultry bit, which can be obtained of almost any dealer in poultry supplies.

Like the latter the tree ia chaintd to one locality and cannot go abroad for food, but fortunately it has ne seme of suffering, or at least none that we Can appreciate. And ' yet even for a tree there must be something akin to pain in the process ot Blow starvation -the seeking by exhausted rootlets of food that cannot be found. It take an enormous amount of various ma nures to foim truit and seeds. The leafy part of the tree may mostly come irom carbonic acid gas ot the atmosphere, but the stone fruits need a good deal of potash. Urp. s and ivears require a cot-ifcrable amount f ihospnate in addition. There n perhaps, no place on the farm where, a good dressing of manure would de greater good than in an old appl. orchard where the trees seem to Le running out. , , , Much of the feeling of chickens is of soft food. It is easily picked bv ihe little fellow s, and they can quickly till their crops from a dab of wet meal thrown on the ground before them.

Sir William Grove, In a ledum dillvereJ at the Royal IriHtitutlon of treat Britain on "autagonlam," miy that "It Js a ncci!-taUy of exlntencw. and of the organism of the universe, o far as we underataad it; that motion and Ufa can not go on without It; that tt ia not a mere casual adjunct of nature, but that without ft there would bo no nature, at all event a we eoucolve it; that It ia inevitably a-saoclutod with un organized matter, with organized mat ter, and with aeotient Itelnga." This is a very broad definition, but It is un qualifiedly true. As an example of an- tatronlMtn in nature, the ledurer speaks first ef pulling force botween the planets.
