I have heard somewhat similar machines described, as being in use in the East in h trn s, but no doubt it could be mod ii '. d and improve! to be letter adap !. : i i,:. our country. The power must t be the elevated tread, as that, to l.-jrse.T unued to it, is injurious, and is invariably disliked. The advantage ol such a machine would be, in its en abling a farmer to do his own thresh ing, at such times as he chooses, with out extra help, and in such quantities that his straw could be fresh thresh ed all winter, and available fur food. 1'r.t mv object in writing is not on iv to express u.v views on the costli- ness of large threshing machines, but to carry the idea still further, viz. that there is no machine in general use by farmers, that does not increase the cost of the work it performs. If there is any what is it? Is it the reaper? Lvt us sne what reaping costs. You have a hundred acres of grain to cut and buy a reaper, and as it is best policy to have the best machine, it would cost on the average about one hundred and fifty dollars. And be cause it is best policy to have a good machine, it may be considered to be too far worn out to be profitably used in five years. We have then For wear j er year Interest " Repair?, Oil, &c. 10 davs work, 2 men 10 " 4 horses I see no unfairness in these calcu ilatons, nor do I think that reapers cut on an average more than 100 acres yearly, or last more than five years, in profitable running order; yet here we have an annual cost of 105 to a reaper one dollar and five cents t the acre cut. Now in olden times I told, cradling was done for fifty cents an acre, and as three acres a day is not a very hard days work, I do nt see why it cannot be done now .i that price. To cradle the wholegrain crop of the West seems abohrely iui possible, and I am not recommending the entire disuse of the reaper fo that reason, but merely suggest that it is the most expensive way of se curing jrrain in farms of small size, and that these high priced machines generally are not so indispensable as as is thought by some. There are but few farms that have been long settled among us, upon which enough ha3 not been expendedfor machinery, to build the necessary barns and comfortable outbuildings, yet few of these farms have barns, while the wrecks of cost ly machines arc strewn from one end of the country to the other. Machines, for farming on the prai ries, are indispensible because labor is so scarce in our busy season, that work would have to go undone if we depended on hand labor to accomplish it, but my own impression is, that the use of these costly machines is to be avoided where hand labor can be sub stituted. Correspondent Prairie Farmer. $30 00 15 00 10 (0 30 00 20 00 have all heard of Rarey, among hor ses, and have almost loved the man in our admiration of his process of train ing. I have just seen a Rarey among horned cattle. Here is a boy, per haps ten years oh training and han dling six steers, not yet two years old, with all the ease that an experi enced Yankee driver handles a single pair while in the yoke; and he has no yoke, nor rope, nor does he spck a w- ril scarcely abotO' a loud whisp'T, ii i only occasional! v strikes a blow " . r v .:jid r-iise a blister upon the -k ii .'f a :!.il-l.

Now hn bring up a single- pair as though yoked to rr'tlif. rLur tn-t 'nl uj tlian f lirno .'- , I III. II J ' It V. , l . V , then he mismatches all of them, as though he were about to yoke the of ox on the nearside. Ihen he chang es places, and puts odd ones together then he unyokes, if I may use the term when he does not ue a yoke all of them, and brings them up in a line like a platoon of soldiers, and with greater precision than any "awk ward squad." Then he traius them M, round by two and three, or drops ou a single one ana orders him a new place by a motion of his small whip or, as it seemed to me, often by a mere effort of his will that he desiret a change of pesition For an hour that I stood watching, there was an other pair of older steers, standing just outside of the circle of his oper ations, patiently waiting their turn until some one osked : "Can you ban die eight as well as six?" "I could' he modestly replied, 4,if my whip was n. littln lnricpr. T can t reach the out n m j - side one, when in line wirn this short whip, but I will try." And so he did; and notwithstamlifrc-the short whip, all were managed with the utmost ease. and all who saw were taught a lesson which none seemed to tire of learning. I hope they will profit bv it. Will th se who read also profit so far ns to purue the same course in training 11 domestic animals. leach your boys too, to yoke up the young steers. to use them kjndly, with patient per severance, to make them as bidable as this boy has those now ou exhibition, and then they will make good, and val uable oxen." A Earej Aumn? Catlle- A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing from the State Fair grounds speaks of a performance with steers as follows : "Every year since I have been able to learn something new something beneficial to mc as a farmer, or some thing that I conld communicate to others to their advantage. I shall try to profit equally by what I see here, I have seen one thing today which I wish every farmer, and every man, who ever drives oxen, or handles catj tie in any way, could see as I have seen. It would teach him the great benefits of tho law of kindness. We J for cleansing and healing. From tbe American Bee Journal. To Prevent Ants From Disturbing Dees. I hear a great deJ of complaint of ants disturbing bees, and ocassonal inquiry is made as to the best remedy ut have not seen or heard ot any remedy so certain to "head" the little intruders, as a simple plan which 1 kopted five years ago in my apiary. It is this: I made benches of one md a half inch boards, having the feet to project out, but very slightly, so is to prevent being blown over. 1 de cide whew the bench is to stand, and see where the feet will come, then put narrow boards crosswise for the feet rest on. Under each end of these ir-iiiti l o ml 1 iiik a inofK or wood or stone o that it shall n;;t settle in the wen her. Then place the feet in tin. iron r earthen vessels, no matter Ifow rough; even old oyster cans will do. md fill with water, shout once a week See that the bench does not touch any other thing having connection with the ground. I brought in from the csnntry this spring, two hives of bees set thera on one of the above described benches in mv bee house and in a few days open ed the upper doors to inspect the hon ey boxes. I found in and around the boxes, thousands of big black ants and efs. I brushed them oot fortrfo or thrne days in succession, ana since then not an ant is to be seen in them, or in any other hive in the apiary. T. J. MAGRUDER. Curing Tobacco. When small dusky spots appear on the leaves, the plants should be ripe enough to cut. This should be done in the morning, and let them lie thin ly upon the ground to wither, and when sufficiently wiited, throw them into piles, under cover, to sweat. Let this sweating process go on for twe days, and then hang under cover to dry. After hanging until there is no greenness in the leaves, strip them from the stalks, which should be done when the air is damp to prevent break ing and wasting of the leaves ; tie up in hands or hanks and pack them in casks or boxes, having them well pres sed down and kept in a drp place. In making it into hands or figs take a number of leaves f .11 them up and fasten by winding another leaf around. Forcer of a Horses Scent There is one perception that a horse possesses, that but little attention hns been paid to, and that is the power of scent. With some horses it is a a cute as with the dog; and for the benefit of those that have to drive night,.such as physicians, and others, this knowledge is invaluable. I have never known it to fail, and I have rode hundreds of miles dark nights : and in consideration of this stron power of scent, this is my simple ad vice: never check your horse nights, but give him a free head, and yoji m;iv rest ussured that he will never get off the road, :tnd will carry you expedi tlously and safe. In regard to the power of scent in the horse, I once knew one of a pair that was stolen, and recovered mainh' by the track be ing traced out by his mate, and that after he had been absent six of eight hours. Homestead. Of a creit many good cures for both . man and beast, I have never met with one eqvt .! to will cherry -bark steeped! in water, for ores. It is reut.'-.rk.tolo j The Error of Dlstrnst. To a post of heavy responsibility, a man is usually appointed because his qualifi fications for it are believed to have been proven by his history. For positions in which immense interests are to be saved or lost, especially when the interests are those of a nation struggting for its life, men are not elected on trial merely. Were this to be done, the Wellingtons and Washingtons would scarcely ever be chosen, and if chosen would be set aside upon the vry threshold of their under takings. The necessity of committing vast trusts to men in whom we can have well grounded confidence arises not solely from the fact that only such men can ac complish great enterprises, but from the additional and too much neglected truth that the ablest men cannot render the best services to the public without the public confidence. They must retain the public confidence amid those adverse cir cumstances in the teeih of which success in momenlus undertakings has almost in variably to be vjn. When in a wild strum the bet proved aeersman is called to the helm, coutidt nee must be r- posed in his superior skill, even though it appear at times almost baffled by the fierce ele ments. For. the want of such confidence a iid the placing of another man at the helm would simply be mending bad with worse, and might ensure that destruction from which the best skill could only with difficulty effect a rescue. It would be a dreadful error to mistake the magnitude of the exigency for incompetency in the man whose past deeds had designated him as the hero of the crisis. It is to the last degree fallacious ano absurd to insist that a carefully selected agent shall have our confidence only while evidently success ful. He welt deserves it while contend ing amid almost overwhelming reverses, if he has done and is doing tkebe.it possi ble under all the circumstances. We are bound to predict incompetency not upon disaiter. but upon an ascertained misuse ot sufficient means. Here is th egregi ous blunder made by the critics who are no.v so loudly complammg of Fremont. Shutting their eves alike to the hard ne- t l . t . : . .1 cessiiies ol ills Miuation. me umiieu mean?, at his, com u and. and lhat hi-tory ot his triumphs which designated him for ns present arduous post, they demand instant and unbroken success as his only admissible vindication from charges o! inefficiency to which his whole life most eloquently gives the lie. Such a demand would have cashiered Washington him self in grossly unjust disgrace, and thus have deprived the country of probably the only man able to save her. It is his know character and thoroughly-tried abil ity that preserved to him the confidence of his countrymen, while repeated and heavy disasters drew upon nun tne male dictions of envious or misjudging men. Had the urgent counsels of the latter prevailed, the "Pater Patria" would have been superseded at a most critical point of his and his country's history, and Lis glorious work have been delayed or never completed. Fremont has a history radiant with proofs thai he possesses in an eminent degree the qualities he now most needs. Those qualities are comprehensiveness and accuracy of judgment, a quick per ception of the nature and extert of vast obstacles and of the requisite means for fcurmouniing them, and energy and promptness in the collection and use cf uch means. His triumphs heretofore were preceded by periods of careful preparation, which, to superficial obser vation, seemed vexatiously protracted, but upon which followed periods ot executi n swift, dauntless, heroic, and ending in successes of which men heard only with incredulity or astonishment. It has been Fremont's habit to tnumpn over tne mosi ormid.ible obstacles, and to win the laurel of victory amid combinations of circum- tances that to most heroes would have been appalling. Our confidence in him is bassed upon his tried character and abilities, and a knowledge of the great difficulties by w hich he has been environed It may be that these wjll at last prove insuperable even to his genius; but if so. it will not b, we believe, through hi? (leficierjey or fault.

Cheap Food, In tnese times especially, some lessors of economy m.iy. or should be learned by nil. At ih utml market price beans are Xk ia ;v ly ch. ape than any other ar ticle of dot. corn cxc.pted, perhapv Beeria c inl ine the nourishment cf both grain and meat.

Usually theyaro are prepared for the table tco dry But ell the beans raised thi3 year-will probably be needed for th? army, and command good prices. Corn therefore be mure largely resorted u. A bushel of corn yi.dds nearly a3 much nourish ment as a bushel of wheat, vrhile the. latter will sell for two cr three usies a3 much money. But there is a prejudico against corn, or corn meal, arising main ly from want cf skill in preparing it. tve nave mauy methods, and wnl co.-v.in-tinue to give others from time to tim.' What we now suggest is, that, house keepers should overhaul their recipe bcoks and back numbers of the Agricul turist, and other journal:, if they aru disposed to be economical, arid who are not? and try the various methods of cooking corn and corn mtal. When they hit upon any method that appears to give general satisfaction, make a ncta cf it. and there will soon be found a variety of methods that may pretty nearly fill upa week, aud ctillatlUrd a daily change that will be agreeable. Let it be unier- stood that you are studying cccn.ray, ar.d many dishes that, would be rejected inor dinary times will btcome acceptable to to the headi of the family. We believe in the doctrine that children should lo taught to always eat what their pa re ma do, or rather what is set before them This pa.npering of the appetite, aud al lowing children to express thi;ir lilres and dislikes, and be gratified in their, whims, is the worst pvdcille trairiug,Hni the sure way to make them unvappy in alter liie.

Though not qui'.e ai nourishing abr-ans, they are very good and paiataUfe when rightly cooked; and they alforp go d nutriment more cheaply thay m-at of wheat Hour. They need to be soaked in cold water undl quite soft, and cm then be treated as when green; the addition of a little sugar will improve them, and give a tasta more nearly like the green vegetable. Pea soup is quite palatable, and it is made by boiling the soaked peas in sufficient wa for the quility of soup required, then mash about one third of them and stir them in the broth. Add butter and salt and p pper to suit the taste. Agricul turist. To Revive Dormant Beds. Every gardener Uuows that sometimes his fruit trees and grape vines lose their branches at points where it is vjry desi rable to have them grow. Fur instance, . a young pear tre has cno or two of it. lower I ranches hioken oiT, on i'.3 way from the nursery. If tbe tree is to h; grown in a pyramidal shape, it 13 essen tial that the.-e lower branches should be., reilattd. W he u grape vines are trained on the renewal method, it is quite impor tant to have the brunches ranged along the hin.m'al -'arms'' at regular dis tances. But often a cane will get broken, off, or by unsuitable management it will. become weak or be reduced to a mere dormant bud. W hat to tio in such cases, is often a puzzle, A writer in the "Farmer's Journal," thinks he has found out a way to meet the difficulty. He says: "I passed a knifo through the bark, and a l;t;le into the wood, just over the eye or 44 knerl " where the branch should have puihed, cr . where it had pu-hed out when young, and -had been rubbed off by accident. A careful examination will show plenty of dormant eyes or knerls. The sap has only to be arrested at th's point to bring these dormant eyes to life. In passing th knife into the wood over the eye, ic should be passed partly around the tree so . as to form a slit or gah over the eye from a half inch to an inch long, according to the size of the tree ; and be sure that you pass it through the inner lark and into the wood.
