Arrtenltaral Jkom fAe Wee tern Rural. It is estimated that tin equivalentoflS tons of hay can be produced on one acre in The farm in Yorktown, Va„ upon which Cornwallis surrendered his lorces and signed the article of capitulation, was recently sold for >B,OOO. Farms soon .run down that sell all their hay. Mr. Mechi, the great English farmer, prefers that the products of his farm should go to market on the foot. The Rural American says to oil iron axeltree, first wipe the spin die clean with a cloth with spirits of turpentine, and then apply a few drops of castor oil near the shoulder and end. One tea-spoonful is sufficient for the whole. The price of Cashmere goat wool in England is 75 and 80 cents, but choice lots are much higher. The pelts of the goat, sell for $8 to 810, and a few as high as sls. There is a limited market for these products in New York city. Bees forage for a distance of three, four, and even five miles from the hive, and lose but little time in making their excursions, as they are very swift in their flight. Lord Brougham estimates that a bee can fly over 90 miles an hour, or one and a half milers a minute. Those who think our cultivated lands must grow poor as they grow old, will find food for reflection in the fact that nSt many years back, the average yield of wheat per acre in England was a bout 10 bushels —it is now over 30 bushels. Brains accomplished it. A harness kept well oiled is easier for the animal, is stronger, and don’t wear out half as fast as one allowed to go year in and year out without care. Clean the harness with a sponge and castile soap. Apply the oil with an old paint brush. A long tin pan saves the drip. It is a bad policy to permit stock to get poor at this season of the year. Keep it in good condition if possible. If allowed to run down now, stock will require half the Summer on grass to recruit. Horses especially should be kept in good flesh and muscle, as their time for hard work will soon arrive. A New Yorker says that cows should be salted every morning, and if in the stable, before foddering, but never after taking water. This is the practice of the best stock keepers in Switzerland, and he thinks much preferable to salting them oene or twice a week, or to keeping it constantly within their reach. Mr. Stevens of Herkimer county, N. Y.. increases his pasture by the following plan : After taking off a crop he sows Winter rye and grass seed at the same time. The next season he turns stock upon the rye, and it furnishes good feed until the Fall, at which time the grass becomes strong enough to furnish feed. A gentleman in the N. Y. Farmers’ Chib says:—“l think, among other things, I have proved this, j that calves ought never to be fed [ together. Each should have a mess separate, as no two drink, a like. Some drink faster than others, therefore get more than is for their good, while the others do not get enough. I think in pays to watch them closely and see that they get just enough ond no more.” Never whin your horse for be- • coming frightened at any object by the roadside: for if he sees a stump, a log, or a heap of tanbark in the in the road, and while he is eyeing it carefully and about to pass it, you strike him with the whip, it is the log. or the stump, or the tan bark that is hurting him. in his way of reasoning, and the next time he will act more frightened. Give him time to examine and smell these objects. Many persona, in preparing potatoes for cooking, pare off a thick slice from the surface. Prof. Blot, in his lecture on the potato, says ; the skinning process is all wrong, as the strength of the vegetable i .lies near the surface—the starch I growing leas abundant as the center is approximate*!. The starch the surface contains the ntitpment,, which is not more titan seven or eight per cent., the balance being merely water. It is said in Switzerland, when a doaler is found guilty of watering or otherwise adulterating bis miHT, he. is condemned to not less riism 18 months’ imprisonment, the loss of civil rigfetS mcludfrig the right of franchise, and mulcted in pecuniary damages. In Paris, when a man is detected in watering miik he is liable, besides the other publahmenfij itiflkted on him, to have a notice of his dishonesty posted up in bis place of business for a series of years. - V* '*- < •

“The blessed man that preached for us last Sunday;” said Mrs. Partington, “served the Lord for thirty years— first as a circus rider, then as a locust preacher, and as an exhauster-” A preacher stopped short in the pulpit; it was in vain that he scratched bis head; nothing come out. “My friends,” said he, as he walked down the stairs, I pity you, for you have lost a fine discourse.” A vagabond seeing the motto i “Opportunity makes the thief,” said, “Noot always. I fond a big anchor and chain cable on the pavement the other night didn’t touch it; and there was nobody about neither.” Notice to Stockholders. Orncr or CntcixsATt, Richmond &Ft.
