Now thtt the cold aeason ia c ttinz in, let the cowi, eapecrallv- the milk-given, have ll neeuiui attention, iner aiioulil De well honaed and well fed. The atablea ihould be unt moderately warm, well ventilated, clean, and provided with guitable bedding. Aside Irotn the mere matter of food and drink, the animal should be kept comfortable. This matter can harill be over-eMiniated. 1 1 hen, aa to lixlrier t part il thi, ol coure, should be atraw, and liar, ami cornstalks; but to expect cows to give milk on such lean lare is toiiv, favor them wttn meses ol chopped roots, of cut straw, or stslks mixed with meal f some kind. A favorite "mess" fur cattle with a friend of ours ia tliis : Cut up hay, or straw, or stalks, in pieces nvt more than an inch or inch anil a hall long, put toe provender in'a tub or tight bx, and pnur baiiting water upon it; then sprinkle on a little salt anil cover tfle whule with a little bran or meal to keep the steam in. When cold, feed it in mest.es of a bushel at a tim. Good as this is, it should be varied from time to time, for cows like variety as well as men. Cows should be sailed two or three times a week. In mild weather the; abould nnge by day in a commodious yard, protected on two sides, at least, bv covered shed. And this yard should have a penstock ol running water, or a trough kept lull always Irom a oik! pump; the lirt is best. A NEW TjIBCOVERY IN WINE MAKING. Anew discovery made bv a winegrower near Bordeaux, France, lias just been made public, and has somewhat startled the old and steady wine factors, maker, and doctors of that place. The discoverer of the natural phenomenon by which win.'s are rendered at once fit fur bottling, without the long proba tion J hey have hitherto been made lo under. Ho, has been fr soma years living in the mountains. In the various qualities of wine grownby him he was struck with the differ ence of development of maturity which took place, acconlitig1 to the temperature ol the cellar in which the barrels were atored. The higher up the mountain the sooner did the wine arrive at perlertion. The leasnii uf this difference soon became clear atoms pherif pressure diminishes gradua l as the region rises above the level nl t'ie sea. Tlii discovery induced the experment of raining and dimiliiahing at will the atmospheric uro'ure UDon the burreU, and with the niot perfect ucre. it is -aid, o as to make old wine in as many days as it iiirmcrly tok months.
