FATTENING FOWLS.
Fowls and chickens may be fattened in four
or five days, by feeding them three times dai-
ly with rice boiled in milk, always fresh, as
sourness prevents them from fattening. Give
them clear water to drink. By this method
the flesh is made particularly white.
It is very desirable, both for the thrift of
the animal and the orderly progress of the la-
bors of the farm, that all domestic animals, as
far as possible, be Jfed, watered, etc., at the
same hour and minute every day. It has
been found by experienced and intelligent
herdsmen, that, when thus attended to, they
learn to expect their fodder at the stated time,
and remain quiet and uncomplaining until
that time comes around. This is true of all
domestic animals, and should be heeded by
the fanner. Let him so arrange his labors ate
the barn that every operation may be perfor-
med at a stated time, and he will find matters
go on much more>pleasantly and comfortable
than when all is left at hazard, without sys-
tem or regularity. Fe.w things are more un-
pleasent to the good farmer than the complaints
of hungry stock.;

BIRDS AND INSECTS.
Wilson Flagg, in a late number of Hovey's
Magazine, makes five classes of insects, and
as many of birds, acting as natural checks up-
on the increase^ of insects.
The swallows are the natural enemies of
the swarming insects, living almost entirely
upon them, taking their food upon the wing.
The common martin devours great quantities
of wasps, beetles and goldsmiths. A single
bird will devour five thousand butterflies in a
week. The moral of this is, that the husband
man should cultivate the society of swallows
and martins ahout his land and out bnil-
dings. ^

A GOLDEN THOUGHT.
We know not the author of the following,
but it is pretty:
"Nature will be reported. All things are
engaged in writing her history. The planet,
the pebble goes attended by its shadow. The
rolling rock leaves its scratches on the moun
tain, the river its channel in the soil, and the
animal its bones in the stratum; the fern and
leaf their modest epitaph in the coal. The
falling drop makes its sculpture in sand or
stone; not a footstep into the snow, or along
the ground but prints in characters more or
less lasting, a map of its march; every act of
the man inscribes itself on the memories of its
fellows, and its face. The air is full of sounds,
the sky of tokens; the ground is all memoran-
da and signatures, and every object is covered
over with hints, which speak to the intelligent.
Indian Troubles up the Mississippi Riv-
er—Aggressions nf the Sioux.—The officers
of the steamer Lacledc, which left St Paul
on the 25th of July, inform the editors of the
St Louis Democrat, tbat the people of the
Wabashaw Village, a point 108 miles below
St. Paul, on the Upper Mississippi river, had
been somewhat alarmed by the approaches of
a party of Sioux Indians, numbering about
five hundred. They had driven several fatal
lies from their homes in the country back of
the village, and was threatening an attack
upon the town. The people were up in arms
ready to receive them.
A Very Tough Story.—Sixty yoke of red
bulls, according to the Frontier News, were
seen last week, by an old lady in Kansas,
hitched to an empty wagon, which wa§ mired
in the streets of this city. The team reached
entirely from hill to hill, across one of our
valleys, vulgarly called guts. The wagon,
being very tight in the mud, refused to move:
the consequence was, when that portion of
the team in the lead, over on the other hill
spread themselves in a strong pull, anci
straightened the chains, tbat twenty-seven
yoke of the bulls in the center, were suspend-
ed in mid air, by their neck, something less
than fifty feet above ground. We did not
see it, but understand that a profile viSw was
taken on the spot for the News office.

Kindness is more powerful than force' or
other four-story institutions. A mild, sweet
look from a pretty girl will do more towards
bringing down irascible corduroy than huge
blows or bellicose tongues. Try on a pair

New clothes are great promoters of piety.
