Vasey took good care to be when first hatched, even little ohie1- ene should never have an exclusive diet of ground and moistened food. Whole grain or wheat or oats is better as soon as they are large enough to eat it. 'l'he digestive ap. paratns of a fowl is very strong, and chickens will thrive better when food is given them whole to furnish the digestive organs proper exercise. Agriculturally, the winter and spring have been full of lessons, but whether farmers will profit by them is a questiun. Whether it is cheaper to buy hay and feed, or to raise it; whether to follow the system of keep- ing cows for their milk alone ; land whether forty days' ploughing and planting can be successfully done in twenty—are questions that have forced themselves ou many a farmer, on &count of the peculiar weather of the last eight months. Rats are particularly averse to tar, and benzine vapor is speedily fatal to them, broken glass mixed with tar will effectually atop up their boles, and a small quantity of benzine pour- ed into their burrows soon dislodges the unfortunate occupant., evidently in as advanced stage of:intoxication —when they may be eseily killed. To well tar a live rat's back and Bidets and let him go again, will stampede all the rate in any house or barn ef- fectually. In general practice, the milk will pay better when fed in oonnectiou with other food. If fed with a good quality of middlings, the milk may be considered as worth one tient per quart to feed calves up to three months old, and to pigs a little more than this. The skim -milk of a fair cow should be worth from $15 to $20 per year. This is about one-half the amount realized from the milk of paratory state. Then canes the real business of the transnotion. 10 .-V\T".A. D 1 Local improvements must be made and the city oouucil(that'e me, my sons, sou in taw, acd two hired men) levies a special kesessnieut.

Vasey dictated bis reports in lila own inimitable style. At the great meeting on the Place de la Bourse the other day, a friend met him, leaning on his secretary's arm. 'You had better go home, Vassy,' he said, 'there may be a riot, and you might be jawed.' 'Oh, no !' said the blind man, '1 mean to stay and see the fun.' (?)
