Tho fulWing rwiwrks of " skilful
jii-ai-titiotir-r ami cUm) olisi-rvt-r. are wor
thy of attention. Dr. Da.M has Ix-en,
however, we uniformly fortunate in the
lioraea which have passed In-fore his eyes
than koti others. Horses arc often over-
fed with grain, lmt we neer knew

U small aitJ regular (itMuiiiiva.
A treat proportion of our horses nre
too well fed obtain more food than they
require. In this land of plenty, most of
our valuable horses are over fed, and
mor especially does this happen among
animals owned by wealthy ami liberal in
dividuals. The impression we wish to
rnnrwv rt dm mind of die render is, that
the food of such, is not proportioned to
Inlior in odier wonls. there exists a din-
proportion between the amount of rarlion
taken in the form of food, and the oxygen
received in the process of respiration.
Now to illustrate this, we will suppose
that a man engaged in tnercantiln pur
suit, owns one or more hows, ho 1ms
not the time nor inclination to give the
one or the other the necessary amount of
exercise; they stand tip to a full crib,
from day to day; enjoying or raiher,
gorging themselves with a certain amount
of fodder, over and above what they ac
tually require, and much more limn they
really need; the surplus is often stored
up in the form of fut, and this induces
acute diseases, and they die of too much
food and care. It is very rare thnt we
hv nrrnsinn to recommend a man to
feed his horse more liberally, but almost
always the reverse Starvation is said to
be the cause for many equine diseases,
but so far as our experience goes, such
cases are. in this country, very rare. We
conceive the term starvation to bo a libel
upon civilization; and so infrequent in
its application among a nation of husband
men, that it is omitted in our dictionaries.
A man on a barren rock, or a horso in
the deserts of Arabia, might prolmbly
starve, but the idea of tho latter starving
in the vicinity of a well-stocked barn or
stable within striking distance of a land
of plenty seems to us a very absurd
conclusion.
There are enough horses to be found
dressed tin in the srnrb of starvation ;
having tight skins, prominent ribs, and
cadaverous countenance, living, yet half
dead. But they know nothing of the
"Famine in Egypt:" they get enough,
but too much of the same kind. Dadd's

Warm Stabling.
We do not think that, as a rule, farm
ers appreciate sufficiently the advantages
of warm stabling for their animals of all
kinds. Just in proportion as stock is ex
posed to the rigors of winter, must their
allotment of food be increased. A cow
will require nearly double the quantity of
food to keep up the natural warmth of
the system, in badly-protected stables,
that others will which are duly cared for.
So it is with all descriptions of animals.
from the horse down. Care, however,
should always be taken to have stables
well veutilated. Milch cowa should par
ticularly have clean, well-littered, warm
stalls, with daily messes of succulent
food. They should also be frequently
curried, have salt two or three times a
week, and pure water to drink. The
extra care bestowed will be doubly repaid
in the extra supply of milk and butter, to
ay nothing of the health and appearance
of the caulo. -

rain water, add threo quarts of molasses,
nut into a good cask, shake well a few
times, then add two or three spooufulls of
good yeast cakes. If in summer, place
the cask ia the sun ; if in winter, near
the chimney, where it may be warm. In
ten or fifteen days, add to the liquor a
sheet of brown paper, torn in strips, dip
ped in molasses, and good vinegar will
be produced. The paper will, iu this
way, form what is called the 'mother,' or
'life of vinegar.' "

The Concord Grape.
Some three or four years ago litis new
grape was brought to light at or near
Coocord, in Connecticut if we are not
mistaken ; and for a year it cr tilted quite
nfurort among fruit-growers in the East.
But it was soon discovered that it did not
deserve near all the credit which it received
principally from those who were interested
in its cultivation and sale at five dollars a
vine. What made it, however, an olecl
of attention in the latitude of New-England
was the very important fact that it ripened
from ten days to two weeks earlier than
other varieties. It has by this time been
fairly tested, and it prove to be a grape
about equal in size and quality to the Isa
bella. It now sells at one dollar a vine,
with the sale principally confined to New
England, where, for the reason just men
tioned, it is of more value than iu warmer
latitudes.
