Farmers should improve their breed of chickens. Why not? Thoroughbreds lay more eggs and give more pounds of flesh than the common chieken, for the same quantity of feed and care. In fact, experiments are now thev are mach better for the table, and are deoidedly healthier than inferior, toogh,or stringy vegetables. Procure good seed, enrich your ground, and work your vegetables thoroughly and well. Have a mellow soil, and keep it loose so that the Tegetables can send out their roots easi ly. COTTOJf. If you have decided to plant cotton this season, determine to plant for all tod can oroDerlv attend to on the land cultivated Do not take in more land than you can manage. Toe old fashioned plan of cot ton pUnting and working, many are sat iifidd with, that is, of opening furrows of tbe same, and then knocking off with the board just as the cotton is rtadj to come up. - - : : " " A good plan to make a heavy crop is to broadcast the land with manure and torn under, eiht or ten inches, still the cotton root will penetrate to a greater depth than your plow.

The next work is to run round your cotton with a plow following with hoes. If the work is thoroughly and properly done up to this time, the afterwork may be done with a cultivator, ot sweep and hoe. If a cotton crop is managed in this way, while it may be troublesome, and less land can be cultivated, yet it will pay! better than double the quantity of land poorly worked, lightly manured, : andi badly looked after. 1 . " 1 ' 1 DIVERSITY i'1"' ' We reeret to see so many farro.ars fol demonstrating that pore bred tow It are heavier, finer and hardier than the com mon ohicken. They lay more, larger and richer eggs. They come to maturity sooner. They are more quiet generally about the farm, and they are healthier. . In feeding your fowls vary their food. Corn is not so good; for producing eggs as wheat. A good summer food i is u a mixture of one half meal and one ' half bran. Keep convenient to your chickens old mortar, gravel dust, . ground oyster shells, or a box of dry earth with a little flour of sulphur in it. Kerosene oil mixed in the soft food of chickens, and given once in a while, .. is good for roupy fowls. Charcoal pulver- lxed and mixed is beneficial to fowls, to preachers, and second rate lawyers. The farming interests of the country are gen erally confided to those whose education has been neglected. The tendency of this pernicious system is to create among the educated youth of the land a con tempt for any business, that requires manual labor to sustain it. Instances are rare where young men adopt mech anical trades from choice,. While our country is sadly in need of skilled labor, our schools are turning out annually , fresh supplies of professional men who expect to live upon the labor of others. What the South, needs is a change, a thorough, radical change in her educational system. , We need me chanics, miners, engineers and educated farmers. Our. country needs development, but this development will never be attained by confining the attention of young men to the study of classical literature, to the neglect of mathematios and natural sci ence. The educated Carolinian frqnent- ly knows more of Horaoe'd Art of Poetry than of guiding the plough or harvesting a crop. He is better acquainted with the Sabine farm of the heathen poet than with that of his father who has by a life of toil accumulated means to educate him. We do not decry t study of dead languages, but we do decry the practice of giving an ornamental education the preferance over that' which so nearly con cerns the prosperity of our country. Life is too short to attempt to teach a man everything. Practioal education is what we need. This is what the South needed before the late war and what she needs now. The want of skilled labor is not owing to a want of intellect among our people. It is due to that pernicious system of education which allures the young from the plow, the loom and the workshop, to the already crowded fields of professional life.

No attempt should be made to put a colt to work until he is three years old, and then better not exact any work beyond gentle exercising until he is four and a. half years old. Although this may' not- seem to be profitable at . first, it will pove so in the end, for it will add six years to his working tims. i 1 Weak Feet Some horses have natu rally weak feet,, thin leels and brittle walls, with a tendency in them to split up into the layers where the nails are driven. These will be greatly relieved if the feet are occasionally put into a good wet bran poulice over night, taken out in the morning, carefally washed, and as soon as they beoome thoroughly dry cov ered with a mixture something like the .'following : Take equal parts of castor . oil, mutton suet and barbadoes tar; melt tbem together over a slow fire, and when cold apply over the whole whoof three or four times a week. Remedy for Scratohes. Wash thor oughly with castile soap, and rub nearly 'dry, then fill all the hair, as well as the sore, with dry sulphur. Ude the salve ; until all the sosbs come off, when only the sulphur need be used.

She should be kept quiet, though permitted to take exercise. Her food should not be too stimulating. A. cow during the period of gestation requires good care and should be kept in good condition if satisfactory results are ex pected. Calves, and yearlings, and cows, infes ted with lice, should be freed by rubbing the skin with a mixture of sweet oil and kerosene in equal parts. . Farmers should remember that it costs mueh more to get stock up when they are once run down than it does to keep them up if attended to , Experience ; shows that the farmer who raises his wheat, his corn, his mules and pork at home saooeeeds better than the one who raises only one article.
