The Tui:f- Field and Paha makes some good suggestions to horse -owners as to stables. They should be light, dry and well venti- lated. Dark stables and bad venti- lation bring on blindness, glanders, farcy and other diseases. Ground floors are preferable for hors to !stand Upon, particularly. in st weather, but but they also possessis- advan•tie,aes.- When horses stand on board floors their feet should be moistened frequencly to prevent fe- vered legs and contracted lent. Working horses which are bad feed- ers shoultj be often soiled, or mashed out. 40/ded -bran, to prevent constipatton, restore the appetite, atia preserve condition for future ser- viee.—To Sweeten Batter Firlcins —Before packing butter into 'firkins, int them out of doors in the vicini- ty of the well, fill them with water, and throw in a few handfuls of salt; let theta stand three or four days, and change the water once during that time. If the butter is weII inade and rightly 'packed it will keep good all summer. To cleanse old firkins in which butter „ has been packed and • left exposed some time to, the air, fill with sour milk and leave standing twenty- four hours; then wash clean and scald with brine! This makes them as geed as new. How to Have a Neat Farm. If a man has cultivated the habit of neatness, system, andeortieri ef putting Ithings in their peoper places and picking up things that are lying round loose, he will have a neat farm. But there areemany fatentera- who have not formed this desirable habit. To such We would suggil3st the following plan: First, 'make a resolution that from hencefort/& yaw will be more systematic and orderly; anti that you may start right, take a yoke of cattle or a span_ ef horses, and put them to a wagon pr cart. Fasten a stoneboat behind. On the etone-hoat put a crowbar; a* pick, a hoe, &spade, an ax, a saw, a btush- hook, or scythe, a hammer, nails, spikes, a few bolts of different sizes, a monkey wrench, and such, other tools as you wilt be likely -to watit, and drive along the side of every fence on the farm. If you come across a piece of board or a broken rail throw it into the waeon. If youi. find a plow ,point, a. cultivator toothee a -broken reaper guard, a horse shoe, an oil can, or an old hoe, put it on the stone boat and bring it home. Stones may be thrown on and drawn to some convenient place.. If yott °erne across any weeds, mow them down.; if any brambles or busheit;t-cut,thein with a brtieh hook or: a If a board is loosean - the - fence put a nail in it. If gate. sags, straighten it up. If there are attet:holts.iu, the gate- ewe. t4t nuts -ate tight. Take 'a mall'5r boy, or both, alontewith you. You will find plenty of neork. Itftthere is a Oat& triage- derOss a .streatu, see twit the sleepers are -not rotten.' The hot sun has eatobabIttwarped the plinths- ;awl they will need another /Ake or two. If 'there ate any sticks or weeds in A ditch, remove them, and throw mit any dirt that may have been trodden in from the sides by the cattle or hogs. In this may go over the whole farm. Then, attend to the bare -yards, Pick up anything hat may ae lyine e around, _and put it in its peoper place. Boards that are of any use, should be placed in a pile by themeelvee ;under cover. Those that are e useless sheuld be sawn;and split up ;nto kindling, to be piled by itself in a wood -shed. If: there are any loose stones in the yard, drew theth off. .Serapet up all the scattered manure or dirt, and place it. in a compact heap where it will ferment, or draw it at once on to grass land and spread it. Go into the garden and see if there is any rubbish there that should be rerneved, or any sticks or pieces of boaird or tools, to pick up. 2 tel -s kinel .
