When corn only is fed to fowls it serves to fatten them, but dries up their egg product; as compared with wheat, barley, rice, oats, etc., it possesses very little of the re quisite qualities that go to help the creating of egg substance ; there fore, for laying hens, whole corn is avoided as a continuous food,but can be given in the proportion of one fifth corn to other grains and feed allowed. Cooked meat once or twice a week is said to be good for laying hens. - Can a poor, stony pasture be renovated ? Plwing up the ground and en riching it while cultivating two or three successive crops, and then seed it down thickly with grass seed, will greatly improve it. Or the land can be top-dressed with manure or guano and then seeded down ? Which corn brings the greatest price, white or yellow ? That depends upon circum atances, and varies in different sea sons; usually white corn commands the best price, but at the present time in New York yellow corn sells some five or six cents in advance of the white corn. How can you tell when alfalfa seed is ripe ? Alfalfa seed in proper condition presents a yellow, glossy appear ance. When not ripe the seeds are white. Which loses the most from shrink age in drying, corn or wheat ? It has been contended that corn loses one-fifth and wheat one-four teenth by drying. How many pounds does a bushel of corn average ? In most States fifty-six pounds; in N~ew York fifty-eight pounds to the bushel. MAIZE AS A FORAGE PLANT. Maize, or Indian corn, when grow ing, both in quantity of yield and richness of food, ranks favorably as a forage plant. Its yield on good land is enormous. It has been estimated, from actual experiment by one of our most practical far mers, that one acre seeded in drill ed corn may be made to furnish food at the South for five horses for a whole year. At a certain stage of its growth all parts of the plant are rich in saccharine matter, and furnish excellent food, relished by stock of all'kinds, and may be used with good profit in fattening pork. Its greatest drawback is that, being an annual, it requires renewed planting and cultivation every year, and it makes heavy drafts on the fertility of the soil. With a rye crop to precede clover and green corn to follow, the provi dent farmer need have little appre hension of a scarcity of forage for horses or other stock nearly one half of the year. EDUCATION AND TRANSITION IN AGRIcULTURE.-Inl an address be fore the New York State agricultu ral society, the president of Cornell University said : "The present sys tem of skinning lands and then: running away to soils more fruitful, in the intention of robbing and run ning away from them in turn, can not last. Men must get a subsis-I tence on less and less land. We see the beginnings of this now. Already it is becoming less and less easy for the farmer's boy to be sure that the little dark office in the greaitybok swarming with law SAVING MIANURE. Probably but few farmers exist 4 who have not read articles in the papers advising them to keep their stable manure under cover in a cellar under the stalls, or under a shed ; but in both places dung is liable to become too dry, and the straw among it will not decompose as rapidly as it wilfwhen exposed to J rains; or if it be all horse dung, it will "fire-fang," and will be greatly injured. A cellar under the stable stalls, into which all the mannre, and urine of the stock is received, is a good thing, but it would -be a great deal better if the manure could be thoroughly wet once a month from a pump adjoining or near the cellar. The same can be said of manure under a shed when piled in deep ; it must be kept moist or it had better be kept in the open barnyard. Indeed, we are of the opinion that when a barnyard is made concave, with no drain to it, manure can be kept in it from fall to spring without any loss. Som.o farmers think that much of the virtues of manure in open yards pass down into the soil and are lost; but such is not the case, as it will be found on re moving it in the spring that the soil under it has become colored but two or three inches deep. Now we claim that if an abundance of r litter be used upon the surface of I the manure to retain moisture and a to prevent evaporation, all that a farmer makes can be as well pre served in his open barnyard as under cover; and we would pre- L fer to have our manure spread over the yard occasionally, and covered with straw, than to have it thrown into heaps by the stable door and through windows back of the stalls, and so remain all winter, with much of its virtue washed away and lost. ETIQUE'TE AT TTE DINNER T BLE. -There are a great many families where table etiquette is almost ig nored. The following impressive suggestions ftre copied from a re cent number of llarper's Bazar,4 which is always full of goodA things:-We all have our various a views as to what it is that consti tutes fit and becoming behavior at H the table. Perhaps none have quite thd whole body of the law at their command; but everybody has a little manual of the chief'points, and in that life where there is.any material attention paid to comfort, the greater part of the people know enough to cause them to eat with their forks, to keep their C arms off' the cloth, not to lie side- - wise on the table, to use their '4 .Si spoon right side up, to butter their a bread on the plate instead of in 1' the air, to put their food into their1 mouths in a single morsel instead 2 of in a disappearing length like a conjuror's ribbon, to. forbear the 1( use of toothpicks, to drink their tea from their cups, to keep the s( plate the hostess sends them-4 these and other similar obser vances every body knows and prac tices them. ~Yet further refine- s ments, moreover, are in the pos- to session of others; the knowledge Ci of how much or how little it is Pi proper to press a dish ; the man ner of speaking to a servant; the a necessity, where there are ser- a vants, of letting every dish abso ltely alone and keeping one's 01 fingers off of so much as a salt cellar. ORANGE CAKE.-T bree-fourths of a cup of butter, one and a halt cups of sugar, four eggs (beaten separately), three and a half cups of flour, two heaping teaspoons of baking powder, one cup of milk. For frosting: One orange, grate ia the rind and squeeze the juice and at pulp, and three-fourths of a cup of p sugar, and then the oage juie I make two cakes of three layers. h DoUJGNTJS.-Six cups of flour, l one and a half cups of sugar, three teaspoons of baking powder, one L teaspoon of salt, butter the size of sa half an egg. Mix thoroughbly. Then te add four eggs well beaten, and moisten with sweet milk until a4 soft dough. Flavor with nutmeg or cinnamon. Egg shells form one of the best F clarifiers for cider and wine. One pint of pulverized egg-shells will clarify one barrel of cider or wine i in from twenty-four,to forty-eight hours, according to the clearness c :>f the weather.
