He bad been informed that in the adjoining coun ty of Essex, there were only 500 sheep, but there were 3,500 dogs! A good many persons are now ; entering upon the business. A new spirit has been awak ened upon the subject.; Sheep have been improved in size and productiveness, as aiuch as, and perhaps more, than cattle. Fifty years ago, a quarter of mutton in England, that weighed 15 or 20 pounds was i?ought large, fiow a quarter of mutton is frequently seen weighing 50 or 60 pounds. 0ns weighing -60 pounds was recently exhibited in Boston market. If there is a demand for mutton, sheep raising must be made profitable. He had uo doubt that there would be a demand for all the good mutton 'that might be raise J. He spoke of the effect of keep-in"- sheep in - reclaiming pastures He knew of a tract of land iu Plymouth' co., that was furmety so corered with briars and rose bushes, uat it was 'almost impos sible to walk through it-' He saw it ia&t all, and it wasa beautiK'! green pasture, ;"ih a smooth surface, aim Ml a bush or triai ' uFcn iL lt had tnfen beC retlaim ed bythfe cf sheePJ a.lone;,, Tiie l& owing - additional sta:emnts were made b!

Herbemont. An immanse grower, and the most ornamental of all our out door vines ; perfectly hardy south of New York ; its berries are medium- and small in size, but color deep purple covered with bloom ; the bunches are very large. Its rich, spicy, vinous flavor is very dis tinct,, and of the greatest excellence". It is fitly described by Downing, U'ho says: Its berries are bags of wine." An ad mirable variety for the latitude of New ;iforlc city, and further South. In texture and flavor it may stand in comparison witn tne best European varieties. 5. Lenuir All that has been said of Hcirbemont will apply generally to this variety, except that the Lenoir is much ear ler, ripening at least two weeks be fore the Isabella. Its fruit is very sweet rich and spicy, and has a very high char acter for .vine, as weil as for table use, and other purposes. Rebecca would deserve all commenda tions for the garden, were it not that its leaves, which are not abundant, like those of Isabella, in most localities are subject to mildew in unfavorable seasons. There are two other varieties that should not be passed without a word, as few who have gardens would like to be without them. ' 1. Union Village. Which originated with the Shakers at a place of that name in Vaf.ren County," Onio, not far from Cincinnati, 5nd was introduced by Mr. Longworth. nppearance it is like a monstrous Isabella; nod resembles it in flavor, but is richer, a.nd ripens at least one week sooner. In bunch and berry it may be represented as twice .the size of that variety. . 2. Ehinburg. This is directly, the re verse of the above, havinir small berries". but cf the highest flavor, and of a deci ded European character, but it is hardy, early find productive; with care, its long ssho..l ?ert? l urches become very hand son.y; fruit iveet, spicy and delicious. tit mny be 'reicsirSifctf that the skin of thV Herlemont, Lenoir, end Elsinburg adheres firmly to the fielih, like all the from the Countrj gentleman. WelgHt orw&cat Straw per Acre. As the amount of straw in ordinary crops of wheat and oats and other cere al is but seldom, if ever, weighed in this country, and as it might not only be a gratification to a natural ctrrirsity, fct also occasionally cf ssij -2 'utility in calca-1 laticr.s 3 to lL2 ,::n:ur:t cf fodder r-1 quired, cr to be prcviie'V arccunt cf S'L ' - " 4Vf Cv-nain ; ,,.,rA a number of reports iu tO this matter, made tv British iarr.icrs, have been compared, from which it appears that the. amount of straw in medium. crop of wheat is about one ton and a half. On very rich, or where the growth of straw has been mde exceed ingly luxuriant by the application of rrua no, nitrate of soda, sulpnate of ammonia or otner nitrogenous top dressings, the amount of straw per acre, has sometimes ben as high as two and a half and from mat up to three tons. In the report of an experiment with umereni Kinds o wtieat, m which the ground Had a very superior preparation m we seeu-was uiooieu mrows six inches apart, and three inches apart in ie rows a mode or cultivation in icuueu sijc iuai.cu iu proauce a very large crop me iyeignt or straw ranged .romone ton and 11 c7I., to 4 ton and 7 cwt., the average being a litils over and 1-2 tons per acre. But this very uncommon weignt ot straw need not dis turb any calculations based on the aver age given above, and the whole crop, both grain and straw, was far above tbe medium, the bushels of grain being stat ed at 55, 65, 6872, &a, and in thecise where the straw exceeded 4 ton?, the wheat is said to have amounted to8i' 1-2 bushels per acre!! - - As the amount of lraw in oats crop3 varies very greatly ia this country, ac cording to the dryness or wetness ot the season, the avereage weight per acre in a climate so different from that here as is that of Great Britain, would be but an unreliable guide for us. A very lizht growth of straw might come short of even one tun, and a very luxuriant growth might reach as high a3 three tons per acree. b rom these data, pretty accurate "guesses1' might be made in any casein which an etimate of the weight of straw might be deemed important. bushels of wheat front ten acres; ; bat when it takes thirty acre3 to raise' that amount, it is raised at a loss, so it is Tvi:h uattleand sheep; you wiil see the 'h'Jrrr farmer hiakin? fcur rear c.'J - - -Ih frcn 650 ts t'SO enck and L V " in . at 10. same Nov. age, not w' - . n m- i-u;rs7 all men are horn frp 00,-'. . -V seed .with clover and grass, end let . it rest lot even twj years, end that field Will not only pay weli fortune but it wlU furnish manure-to maks aaoth-r f f ' of same size rich alio; it is lad policy, when a field h once highly man-jred to comb ue cropping it with the crain until th manure 13 used up.

Tarnips among Co7n: ,In some recent notes we alluded to the practice noty- becoming quite prevalent there, of putting, turnips in the rows of corn. A correspondent of a paper in Pennsylvania, says: . "The practice of sowing turnips among Indian corn, at the last hoeing, and es pecially where the latter has been thin ned b'y worms or other insects, i one which cannot too urgently be recommen ded. The turnip is a vegetable which requires less assistance from solar light duiiugthe incipient stages of its devel meiit, than almost any plant in the whole catalogue of edibles; consequently, u is but slightly injured by the foliage of ihe corn plants, or ihe closeness ot the at mosphere thus created. After the corn is harvested, and before the advent of frost, there will be ample time for them to root, especially if the soil be wellcul tivaJed. Burnt lands, in which thi nat ural vegetative powers of the toil are aurmentDed by the alkaline principles of the ahes, are very favorable to the cul tivation of turnips; and when they are sowed among torn on such, they almost invariably produce a lucrative crop. Hun dreds of bushels of excellent turnips may frequently be grown m this way without any appreciable diminution of the corn crop. "Economy is wealth," ays the adage, and it is certain no one can prac tice it long without increasing to &ome extent his mtans for future operations and enterprises. In this business of pro ducing cheap crops in substitution for the more expensive cereals, we gain sev eral important advantages, among wfcfch may be mentioned as not the least prom inent, the saving of time, and the re alization of a lucrative yield of produce from laud prepared for another species of roots or grain. The ravages of in sects often prove fatal to many vegetables espcially to Indian corn; and when this happens, unless the vacated land can be filled with some crop of later growth, it must remain, either in part or wholly idle. Attain, the turnip bears late sowing so well that it may be grown on fields from which early vegetables have been taken ; it succeeds weil after a .crop of peas, beans, &c. ; ; . Bone manure, wood ashes, lime and poudrette are all excellent articles to be used in the cultivation of turnips. Ground and crushed bones, and bones dissolved in sulphuric aciditself possessing pow erful stimulant . and manuriai properties, makes an admirable dressing. Gypsum aUo. is applied with success, both before and after planting Green and fermen ted, manures should never be used on this crop. . - " ' There is no excellence without labor. rr rtmiTi ftunrt Thomas S.

"In giving grain to colts I should ob ject using any kind but oats, as this grain goes mostly to form muscles and bone, while corn or corn meal is heating ; and any more roots than is sufficient to keep the animal in condition tends to fat which is not wanted. Colt? should have all the good. hay they will eat, and water and salt ad lilitum.
