There is advantage, in more than ono respect, in having a pasture near the barn. Often it happens, as in the ease of the writer's cid homo farm, that the regular pastime fields were well ou to a mile from the lions°, and to turn tho cattle back again to re main overnight-, to be brought up again in the morning, takes time and labor, or to leave them in the stalls or yard at night, keeps them from the onjoyiwint of pasturing the cool- est part:of the day. It is convenient, too,ifor the farm Lenin. After hav- ing their evening ration of grain or cut feed, they can: easily be turned into the adjoining pasture, and iu the morning quickly be brought up again for the morning grain. We assume that farmers feed grain, morning, noon, and night, to the hard worked farm team This night pasture should not -enter into the regular re tation with other fields; but should bo made a permanent pasture, kept in good condition. 11,0c:try wit -Infant IN HEAVEN, Yolern snrprimod that 1 ever should tang So Jost wail, till the reasmi I've given Why I say I shan't earn for the musie, Unless there Whistling In /leaven, Thou you'll think it no very great weeder.
