PRACTILAL FARMING. What Is a Day's Flowing- While catting a furrow 9 inch** wide th* plowman walkt jnttsboatelevtn miles while be is turning over an acrs that is with- out reckoning tht journey from the stable to tbe field and back /in. It it one of th. advantage! of long rie.di that the time occupied in turning at the endt it to much lett than on tnorter itretchet and tmal.er fields. In plowing ao acre 352 yardt long, cutting* a y-ioch furrow, th* man goet twenty-seven and a half times round, and turns on the headland fifty-rive limes. If we allow one minute tor turning, the time thus occupied is equal to fifty-Ufa minutes, or tsy an hour's work ths hardest of ths day, too. This would be in a paddock of tie. t of average length, being 16 chains lonrf. When s fitld is * chains 179 yards long, the numbtr of turning! it doubled, and Ibe amounl of hard work and time absorbed is one hour and fifty minutes. In a field 5j chaini long (117 ytrdsj a not ucutual length the plowman turns 165 times in order to out through an acre with t 9-inch furrow, and allowing a minute For each turning, two and three-quarter hours are occupied in that operatiou, Tht p.ow spice to tin good, Heady work vanet from ont and a half to two milee par hour. Applying these figures to the eleven miles wslkad in plowing aa acre, at the rat. of one and a oaif iriie* u hour, lakes seven and ont-eighta hoars. With a 10- inch furrow then is one mile less of walk ing, which may be computed a* half an hour to thres-quariert, according tothee.t mat- of travelling pace. With a I "-men farrow on light land, when ins furrows ars 3o- yards long, from six to s*-*n hour* ar< occupied per acre, at th* ordinary pace ol two miles per hour. Tnus, in inert fialusa great amount of txtra work become* n tary and lime it loet in turning. So an acre may require eight or nine hour* Plowt catting a double furrow or three or four or more furruwafat the tame lime may be estimated on the tame line*. Symmetry In Live Stock. A correspondent asks whs! is meant by ths sxpression, "symmetry in live stock.' The meaning is -inch th* same a* when the word it appntd to other thingi ; tnat is, th* animals to which it is sppliad have aa orderly, well proportioned arrangement ol their parts. A cow with on* horn much largtr than tht other i* not symmetrical lhat point. An animal may hav* a goo<i point ao largsly developed at to mar ihs symmetry. Wt remember a cow of a beet breed, shown at s leading fair, with such a remarkable development of the loin at to stem almost deformed. Shs received ihe fint prise. Some criticism was mads. An excellent judge of cattle de- fended the sward on ihs ground thai ths loin was ons of trie must important points in a beef animal and that even excessive development here was to be pre- ferred to greater symmetry. Manyanimalt ar* every way useful, but wt speak c: .hem fourth of an acrs. It it best to use plenty ol teed rather than too little. Sow the seed before the middle of September, and the rams will carry it down, as wall as allow sufficient time for the young grass to make bsadway bsfors winter. The Weed Crop. Weeds require closer watching now than at any other time, as they ar. producing teed. If one is seen any where pull it out ever let th* seed mature. Tht mower can 10 pood servios in 6eldt,but tht hoe should M used to clean out tht fence corners. Notes. Nons bat a careful and level-headed per- son should break in a heifer to milk. A roung cow is often spoiled by impaiisnt or ioint*llig*nt handling.

One must confeas U) s fsllow feeling for the little girl who did not like to vitit where they slways had timee for things, and yet that it U very dssirabU to have tytteoz in th* household, goet without aying. But no wist housekeeper w... make system s Maloch to which the com- fort and convenience of tne whole family must be sacrificed. Aa experienced housekeeper knows that it is impossible to rsgulate houeehold affairs by a set ef fixed rul*t wttnout ttriously interfering with th* freedom and pltssur* of home Lfs.
