A correspondent semis us the follovvim extract from one of his papers, and ask “ whether there is anything in it or not:” “Tepid water, slightly salted, given twice a day, will increase the flow one-third. 71 tilt' cow will not drink it at first trial scat ter a handful ot bran or meal over tin top of it. They soon become very fond of it, and will drink all you givo them. I tried this plan three years ago with perfect success. 1 had only one cow, and she was of the common scrub stock of the country, and after she begun to drink t!i water prepared as above, she furnishe me twice a day two ordinary water buckets full of milk, and by feeding a lit tle corn boiled with cotton seed the milk yielded butter enough to supply my table bountifully, and leave me a lew pounds to sell every week. I gave her three gallons of water twice a day.” We have never tried the experiment, but can readily be lieve that warm water, especially in cold weather, will increase the flow of milk, especially i! a libera! sprinkling of'o:un is placed mi its surface, but the writer has probably made the very common misiako of measuring results i>v the quantity of milk. We very much doubt whethei in ordinary weather a cow thus treated w II make any more butter : the result noted was most likely produced by feeding brae, or a little corn boiled with Cotton seed.” As our correspondent proposes to make the lest, he should try an equal amount of bran ami corn without the extra suppk ol water, lfieh milk must have some °ther source than warm water —Ex.

It is strange that such a large, number ol the cultivators of the soil in our State refuse to have tlmir eyes opened by their own experience, and that of those around them, in tanning since the war. To-day, if you go into the country, lmw many i" you find struggling to keep up hundreds of acres in a farm where one or two hun dred would lie more remunerative to them ? Oo see and you will find insecure fences, shallow plowing, a third of the necessary amout ot manure used and in every way see that the farmer lias too largo a job on bis hands. The result naturally will be a small crop, ot poor quality and that will nrrag a low price: 'Tins is not all—fencing is neglected, stock run down, an insufli- ciency of tools, while bushes, weeds and briars spring up all over the country. To all who larm on the above scale we say, sell ofi, or even give away some ot your land, manure the rest of it. cultivate it well aud you will have good yields and profitable crops. 1 his is nice butter, my boy,” said a country store keeper to a twelve-year old urchm, who had brought a pailful ot that aitule to market—“nice butter.
