AIKEN, 8. C., TUESDAY, OCT. 9. City and Country Holidays. The editor of the Canadian Farmrr thus discusses a subject tiiat is worthy of more than a mere passing glance, and we commend his views to our readers: “Do fanners or country people in general work harder than the dwel lers in cities and towns? Business men of the cities tells us that country people know nothing about hard work, that they are often so hurried they have not time to take their meals, and are at work especially at certain sea sons of the year late and early. True it is that the farmers work lias less of care and anxiety, that after the day’s work is over, though it be laborous, yet it brings health and strength, and induces sweet nights of rest, free from cares of business, the anxiety of ma turing bank notes, besides other claims to be met, and perhaps not knowing where the money is to come from to meet them. Business men do more brain work, and have more brain worry and more anxiety of mind, while with farmers their labor is labor of rnucles with less care Men can, however, make their business whatever they chose—laborious or otherwise, and often times the cares that seem the most oppressive are imaginary. Life is about as we make it, and there are pleasures, and also hardships found in all branches o! business, but we claim the farmer’s life to be the happiest and pleasantest of all, if rightly managed but too of ten made a life of hardship by unceas ing toil. Were there more holidays put into farmer’s lives, it would be better, mere time taken for amuse ment and recreation. It has been thoroughly proven that human beings can accomplish more with occasional intervals of rest and recreation* than by constant toil, and the application of their utmost energies. “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” It has the same effect on Jack’s fatlrj er and mother, his uncles and an and all the rest of his relai yEsop’s fable of the unstrung bow bodies an important lesson, and rtiat the bow always bent loses it spring There is proof enough to this in\Jhe tired and about thei and good spirits are the essentials to vigorous toil. It is a pleasure to work y/luni :ls numtle sav. “you feel llke ii-” and a punishment whfch yrra hon-cr There is need then of keeping up the spirits by recreation, holiday-keeping, etc. The overwrought Tanner who / refuses to rest and recreate when he can best afford to, may have to tdrn in with a fit of sickness, and m.se time when he can least afford it. \ i «t j *'v 11 • )roof enough to this inithe spiritless way many rir work. Health, strength Kinic Alcohol’s Sway In England. London Letter in Courier-Journal To get a just idea of the extent of King Alcohol's sway in this realm, your readers should see and study George Cruikshauk’s painting in the National Gallery on “The Drinking Customs of Society.,’ The picture there drawn traces the human being from the cradle to the garve, and re veals him in all the various social and business relations of life; if not with a glass in his hand, at least with the opportunities intoxicating refresh ments within easy reach. Cruik- sbank’s masterpiece is well worthy of study simply as a work of art, but a living and even tragical interest at taches to it from the fact that it is so sadly true to life. The family domestic, in negociating for a place, inquires as carefully al ter the daily quanity of beer allowed as about the wages, while in higher life the practice of drinking is so gener ally indulged, and up to quite recent ly was carried to such excess, that it is not long since the common way of speaking of one much the worse for liquor was to remark that he was “as drunk as r lord.” When a visit i» made to a neighbor or friend, ttye first courtesy extended is to set out the de canters, or to bring a pitcher of ale or stout from the cellar, and woe betide the reputation for hospitality of those who neglect this form of welcome. In business the toddy or glass of bit ters prepares the way for almost even bargain, and another drink seals the transaction. The average English man must have his first sip about lu o’clock in the morning, when he takes his lunch. Then the dinner and sup per must be washed down, and water is out of the question. The women of England drink a- generaily as the man, and with as lit tle conception that there is any harm in so doing. To see ladies of refine ment regale themselves from brandy flasks while traveling on the trains is a sight that surprises only strangers, thousands of the most respectable of this sex do not scruple to stand with their husbands at the puplic house bar, and even to take thoir children to these places. Remedy for Chicken Cholera. (Rural New Yorker.) Here is a remedy, or preventive, of the chicken cholera, which 1 have successfully used for two years. While my neighbors have been losing near ly their entire stock, mine have been healthy, and I have never had a ease to my knowledge. Take a barrel, saw it asunder in halves, pour about three quarts of unslacked lime in one of the halves, together with half a pound or I pound (to suit the necessity) of alum; tiil the half barrel with water; when slaked and settled take from one pint to one quart, (as the case requires) and put in every pail of water given the fowls to drink. The lime will an- wer for the second half barrel of wa- er, but t!ie same quantity of alum hould lie used as before. If continued daily during the sickly season, I can from my experience assure your read ers that their fowls will not be troub led with chicken cholera. Saving Crab Grass Hay. \ This is the plan that has been suc cessfully adopted by^J)r. B. T. Smith otu^ for—iTrrrTcrrrs—tr.-ao n th> The farmer, it is true, cannot so ns others take a week or two an oft*for a holiday trip, especially in summer, when it is needed, but we iiave serious doubts about this manner of recreation. It is better to mix play with work, to weave the bright holi day threads into the texture and fab ric of our ordinary life. This kind of holiday keeping is practicable for the farmer. There are short respites from pressing work when a day can be spent for a pic-nic, or a pleasant drive, and a team and conveyance is always at hand. In the winter there is more leisure ti.ne, and should be taken advantage of in social gather ings, literary meetings, etc. Some thing to amuse and also instruct. More holidays and more amusements would serve to attach people to farm life and country homes. Were a little more enlivenment put into the dull existence of farmer’s lives there would be a more cheerful contentment among them and less desire for city life. Taking Care of Hogs. (Kansas Farmer.) Cool nights are coming, and hogs are xery sensitive to cold. Tins re minds us that shelter is needed for the winter. A writer in the Rural Mes senger states cur view of the ease when he says that probably the most common failure to give good care to swine is in the matter of sleeping places. The hog is very sensitive to cold, and will try to keep warm by burrowing into his litter, or when in large numbers crowding close togeth er or upon each other. Either of these is directly opposed to receiving a sup ply of pure air, and the hogs need this as much as any other domestic ani mals. In the same connection, the same writer, alluding to the use of propel kinds of food, says it is well known tbathogs need as much variety in the way of food as any other kind of farm animals, and no farmer can make the best attainable result in hog produc tion unless he uses the strictest care in feeding his pigs and young hogs in a regular way with several articles of food besides corn. Corn is good in its place and should not be dispensed with where it can be had easily, but in addition to the corn all young hogs should have a certain amount of grass, roots, potatoes, artichokes, and beets can be fed to young hogs in a sparing way, mixing a certain amount of bran or ground oats in with them. Any of these articles can be advantageously used to ease down the over-feeding with corn. Potatoes ought not to be fed to hogs or any other animal in a raw state. They should be boiled. _> v 3 t « * L > hr^F: “For forty years I have saved !my from crab grass without failure /and with very little labor. The fid- lowing items properly observed will insure success: 1st. Cut when the seed are in dough. 2d. Never cut un til the grass is warm and, usually a little after meridiau. 3d. Let a rake follow the cutter and rake all that can be reached by a rake with seven or eight foot handle Cock it up high with a fork or rake. 4th. The next day throw four or five of these cocks together with a fork, or, ifeonvenient, pitch it into a wagon and store it up in the barn or stack in the barnyani. It requires no further care, for the reason that the grass when free from dew from the heating of the cocks is saved at once, keeping all its leaves and seeds, which make it very nutri tious food for stock.” Dr. N. Rowe, of Chicago, gives the following as the best simple remedy for colie in a horse: If it is ordinary colic, or gripes without flatulence, irive him a dose of whiskv, sav from two to four ounces, that being gener ally handy; or a strong dose of pep permint or spearmint tea, hot; but it a drug store is near, give from one to two ounces each of laudanum and spirits of nitre; repeat the dose in half an hour if necessary. If it is flatulent colic, the horse bloated with gas, give a teaspoonful of saleratus in half a pint of warm water, repeat it in ten minutes; if this does no good, give an ounce of turpentine in half a pint of linseed oil; or yon may give half an ounce of chloral hydrate in half a pint of cold water. In addi tion to the above directions, in ali eases give warm water injections, and let the horse remain quiet, allowing him to roll if he wants, to give fric tion to the belly, and give soft feed and rest afterward for a day or two. A writer in the Greenville News cal culates that the present crop of cotton will beat least 4,909,000 bales; which with the stock of old cotton on hand would raise the supply to 6,500,OOp, an ample supply for all demands. He concludes as follows: “The country is full of cotton goods with little de mand for them, and quite a number of mills are running at a loss, yet they cannot atop and must keep on till prices are better. Under all these circumstances we see little or no ohanoe for prices to be better before \ spring and perhaps not then, and those who cannot hold will do well to sell at 9'.j cents.” J~\ his health otters to make life- ' size CRAYON or Pii^tei Portraits for : $25.00, and half life-size for $10.00. | Also Flowers, Landscape and Genre Pictures to order—any size.

The New York Graphic says: “We regret to learn that President Arthur allowed his temper to be ruffled the other day because some persons who , were not Presidents of the United j States were allowed to go aboard a : revenue cutter in a covered steam ; launch, while Mr. Arthur had to use | an open boat and had his shirt front deluged with water. Next to his trousers, there is nothing in which President Arthur takes such a pride as his shirt front. THESE works were established in 1847 by Messrs. Geo. Sinclair arc.

Gin Wheels, Grist Mills and other Machinery. I have the manufacturing right of many Patents, such as castings for COTTON AND HAY PRESSES and three or four Feed Cutters and other Implements. I will be pleased to send my Circu lars to any applicant, together with price list or estimate- My Prices are moderate, and I assure the public that they are lower even than those of Northernmanufacturers, and that my work will compare favorably with that of any other maker.
