hen the ground’is soft’ to be trampled

In letting cattle stand in an unshcl-

tcrcd ‘ord incnld, stormy weather, when

there IS room in the stable for them.

In throwing their fodder in the yard to be trampled undcr foot, instead of feeding it inr'tlie racks.

In not having water in the yard for cattle, in place of driving them through the snow and all kinds of weather to the creek, thereby losing more in manure during a year than the interest of what it would cost to bring the water in the yard to say nothing of the inconvenience.

In not having a house for poultry to roost in, and save their droppings; the value of the latter from a hundred fowls, in oomyenr, would pay the cost of the building, not coun‘ing the advantage it would be to tho fowls.

In not having a woodhouse to cut in on rainy days, and store up dry wood.

' In leaving potato-vines, wccds, ctc., go to waste instead of hauling them to the hog-pen to be worked into manure.

In riding about and leaving the ma- nagement of the work too much to liircd help.

And last, but not least, in sending their children to school 0. day or two each week, and allowing them to play and loitcr about the rest of it.—1"urmcr's Chronicle.

Cons son SHEEP-KILLING Dons.— ” L. IL," \Vashington llollow, writes: " I have a valuable dog, and more val- uable sheep, for which the dog has an illicit liking. Is there any curc short of bullet?"-——In one instance, the following remedy was effectual. The culprit was

muzzlcd and strapped by the neck to the

nccks oftwo stout weathers. The sheep took fright at their unusual companion,

dragged him around the pasture in all directions.

\thn tired out, the sheep were released, andtlic dog sneaked home, thoroughly cured of his appetite for live mutton, and lie was never known to chase sheep afterwards. If this rcmcdy fails, try the bullet.

BARLEY.-—“ \Y. H V '.," Allcgan (30., Mich.——’I‘he piece ofland you describe—

a clay loam, plowed last fall after corn—

is well suited for barley, provided it is not wet. If it needs draining, bcttcr sow it to cats. You may get a fair crop of oats, but you certainly will not got a good crop ofbarlcy. The first requisite for barley is a naturally dry or drained soil. Then a rich clay loam, well cul- tivated for corli, fall plowed and again plowed in the spring, and sown as early as the ground is in good condition, ought to give a. good crop of barley. Drill in the seed at the rate of2to 25 bushels
