A tramp who arrivd here a few day* ago from the west gives Li« experience in dead­heading it over the Cnion Pacific from Cheyenne to Green River, on tho Jarrett & Raimer train by climbing upon the roof of n coach. Iio says that from Cbeycuue to Sherman be rather enjoyed tho ride, but that between Sberman and Green River bi* experieneo was one never to be forgotten. The rapid movement of tha train nud the rocking of the coach forced him to wind hi« arms a> d tegs around n stove pip# and hang on for dear life. His hat flew off enily in the ordeal, nud after the trau left thia city he was discovered by the engineer, who began throtying a shower of cinders ; but «o rapid was the motenfenl of tho train that tho koaviest ones merely ent through his clothes like bullets, while the lighter sparks pass above him. His coat- tails flapped so hard that ho realixml that he must part with them, but he dared not loosen a hand to tuck them under him, and they were eoon torn off to blow .away. Although he rtianaged to keep his fsce be­ hind tlitJ pipe nearly nil tho time, he w&s frequently struck in the face hv flying ein» ders, so that Wheti ho reached Green River bi* face and neck was badly cut and scratched. Su great was the poor tramu# f«ar of being throw n off and killed, added to the terrible strain of hanging to the pipe by main strength fur so long a diMai o*. nod tho intense suffering from tbs wound# in­ flicted by tho cinders, caused his hair to turn gray, and wl>n he climbed down at Green River Ue looked like a man who had seen fifty instead of twenty-two summers.

Fr«L krseM M Oaky Steck. There are two potato especially important : !M. The need ot proper food for auoh stock. Fanners are arerae to a eliange in their sys­ tems. They do aot wish to improve. Men eoeoaioually tray tkta dsuyiag does not pay, mid wkm it really does not pay, they will took, for the leaks. For higher profits we must look to bettor stock and bettor food. As to the latter—few people appreciate how small a proportion cd the food is converted into milk. During the period of lactation, oaly-oaa-flfth of ths food gees teto milk. It we ibu«ldrua a machine for cloth making at such loss, it would bs thought foolish. Very tew give their cows M much food as they can convert into milk, and of that they do give, fact-fifths mer months. perhaps only •sw-eighth goes into unitk. A cow should never lack a full sppply of water awl food, to yield largest re- t FJL A two-yoar old heifer may make 100 Jb-. of butter iu an culinary season. A friend af his took an ordinary heifer, fed her espe­ cially well every day, got from iflM kll mess • everyday, and made an sversge oTa .ponnd Fifty tmsheh of wheat per sere, or a hun­ dred bushels of corn, though possible under right conditions, never result from clinging to a prejudice or » delusion. Oue mon may astonish us with the yield he gets by plowing three inches deep, while another ’gets a result equally magnificent with ten inches. Yet i(the two eases were rove reed, both crops would IM failures. Each of tbssa man is right for hia owu totality and conditions, but not necessarily right for another mon, or another farm. This has been BO from tha beginning, Mud will be so till tbe ond of tims. The advocate td ten inches proclaims bis mermens crop, end expects all the farmers to adopt his theory Ou the other hand, the man of three inches is cquAlly dogmatic, and denounces nil who hesitate to rally under his banner. Now is this reason nod common sonas, or is it mars antagonism, tending to create parlies, •nd aiming at victory rather than truth ? Whatever it may be called, it is simply an absurdity that tends to perpetuate a con- troverey that patient inquiry aud eomiuon sanso ere alone sufficient to settle. How­ ever fang tills discussion may continue, there is bnt one final result. Every farmer will find it neceuary, and not only noo ettary but entirely possible, to decide this qn*ation for himself. He has only to interrogate tLe ■ >il he cultivates in A simple experimont, •nd the needed infonnitkn will be reveal- .pounds and ten ecmcus. Next Beason the Bome cow had common ears, and dropped back to a <x>mmon yielL Showing that feed­ ing made the great difference. The capacity forgiving milk results from the activity of the reproductive organs, and wanes M the distance from calving increases. Taks away food, which etiinulatea three organs, and they relapse in milk-prodncing power, and can not be again aroused until another birth. One kind of food will not take the place of another. If we offer a cow three times a* much of the olbumenoids as of supporters of . respiration, ehe will not yeach her full capa­ city. You can't make cheese out of fat, or gum, or sugar. Then food should be easy of digestion. If we wj«h to mal.c a profit ont of cow*, they must make the largest possible amount of milk from their fowl. If they give milk when eat- iug straw, they draw upon their own resources and little on the straw. A cow can't digest bay enough, even, to make a large amount of milk. Pigs fed on raw potatoes can only keep alive; boil them, and the pigs will make fat pork. A cow’ can not easily digest hay. Grau is one of the very beat foods, being easily digested and requiring little change, its nutritious matter is very much like that of milk. These points are very essential. The or- d’nary mode of feeding does not reach the needs. In reply to questions, Prof. Arnold said be would cut hay while green,—about the time , of Llossomin". Would not let it pass tbe btnesom. Would not cut two crops. Be­ lieved in fodder com, property grown, fed green, also fed dry in winter. Has cut it in bloassoro, and fed it thus in winter with ex­ cellent results. Thinks green clover better than late cut timothy ; green timothy fully equal to green clover. Doesn't tliink it pays to steam anything but lata cut food, which di­ gests poorly, Referring again to digestion Prof. Arnold mentioned the case of a heifer, fed by Mr. Miller, of Chautauqua, on meal alone. Ou examination of the animal's atomach, he fonud that the raw m<al, jmt fed before slaughter iug, was in the first stomach, mixed withmral thathad Jain with it for several days. Tracing the meal through the various stomachs and into the small imestfacs, ha found some that luul doubtless lain there full two weeks. Thought meal rbould be ground very finely, lor feeding. On further inquiries. Prof. Arnold said he ~tlwpghtour stale com meal harder to digest \lhan the grain meals. Had bad best results • Irom hay f«ding when fed twice a day. Would feed meal as often M hay—twice a day *5 ’enL Would wet the coarse fodder. Would feed meal first, if feeding meal and hay separately. To produce milk after grow season, would take the Io#d nearest like grew. Near Rochester, might take barley grains. Bran will give more milk and more butter, nt a given cost, than me d, but tbe quality is pc<r. The Montreat Star Bays:—" It ia now a settled fact that the wheat crop of Canada UiUBOMon is the heaviest of which wo have any previous record, whilst the English crop ia tffiaracterizaJ by the Saturday Rsvifw as the worst ever grown in the United Kingdom, its condition being so damp that the bulk of it will not be avail­ able for consumption until after the winter.

It is unquestionable that in case European diplomacy should effect peace between the Dauabian combatants— and this is not remotely improbable—the wheat supplies from the Black sea and the sea of Azov would at onee consider­ ably depreciate the value of that article on the London Mark Laus Exchange. Re (erring to this, the Saturday Review makes the following siguifieant remark •It is perbajm for that reason that America seeing bar opportunity is selling all she ean, while Russia is almost abut up.

Intelligent and practical men who agree on most other subjects, rtill differ widely on the nrvar-ending question, How deep to plow? The great mistake lies in attempt­ ing to lay down a general rule, whore .no such rale is porsiblo; or, if possible, is sub­ ject to co many exceptions, that it becomes wor|hle«. The lata Horace Greely w s understood to be au advocate to deep plow­ ing, and iu the abstract, he was probably rigl^. But unfortunately, his rural disciples were not sufficiently guarded against the exception®, and ofl>n make mistakes. Ont of every bundled farmers who adopt a general rule on thia subject, possibly one- half may fairly reap lire benefit of the rule, while the others, or most of them, are tripped up by the exceptions. This is un- kfortnr^te>forit baa a tendency to bring dis­ credit on enlightened husbandry by increas­ ing the perjudtoe against what is termed "book farming." Nolbiag can be more damaging to agriculture than to weaken the Lilh at farmers in |ho journals and books e’eroted to their iotaest, We r**r to this subject, not u partisans on either aide, nor yet became Ibero is any • tJuubt of the value of sound argument on great qnestious; but simply because the ■rgnmeni on this question is too often un- Round.

OCTOBER 17. 1877. Miea Bjtty was romantic, and it so de- lighted bur when 0 rorge at last- yielded to IIio idolatry of poor Fifine, that she coaxed Joi father into leasing a bit of scrubby wood- I land, with a tumble-down house upon it, to George, M that he could hava a garden and potato patch, and raim touie cbickans, and taka niee enra of poor Fifioe. Mis. Bully •ren condescended to go to them during the bouee-fiiirtliing and the honey-moon, and BMist Fifipo to her Htela domestic fur­ bishing and adorning, and advise George in"relation to his garden, his potato patch, his thickens, and wood-splitting. , But, truth tossy, George bod BO stdddied tba character nnd aUribatoa of the noble ImlLtu that he muddled bin Ufa upon it, so waft resigning all domestic duties to poor Fifine. He give over to bis Bpmisa the en­ tire Bnpervlsiun of the garden, potato pitch, ettieku'raking,and even the wood-splitting. He WaS of a dreamy nature, and would ait for hours od a rude bouoh be had pieced near the water, arid there he would smoke and meditate until Fifine bad tidied np the lionsa, and foil the chickens, and hoed the lAutofs, end washed a couplo of dozen jStceaTor oua af her patrons, and split some wood, and g»t dinner upon the table; then xiaorge would come in and eat dinu.r with Fifine, and toll her of all be had been think­ing abont while sitting th ore upon Ike bench under tho trees. Fifine was very happy. Sho knew that George was .uperiorto her In mind, but ho Lad to'd her time and again that it was r ght that he should be her superior, and be 1 ved her all tho batter for it. But Mis. Betty bn I her misgivings, and rue day, when ebo was curled up like a love­ly kitten uuon the window-all, she said to Fifine, ‘What doss George do, Fifine, tn- ward tho snppirt of the houi-ibold ?

She left Fifine to iron the tucks and furbelows with which Mrs. Van Dyke de lighted to adorn her daugbtet Batty, aud wont out under the grape­ vine, and walked to and fro, and thought that if somebody—and here she trembled aud blushed at the thought of his name— if bo won Id read to her again, won Id talk to her again, would tell her of the big beau­ tiful world once more, if he would love her —ah, wbnt would sho not be glad to give lu return 1 She would work for him—ay, she w<uld work her slim fingers to ths bone, n»Iy,< f courae, he wouldn’t let her; he was loo noble and genoror.s and thoughtful.

He was the new ministor, the Bev. Reginald Boakc. The consistory had thought it best to got a yonng man, so that he could board around among the parishioners, and thus save the rant of a pnrsonage.

INGERSOLL MILLS.—These mills, filmri’ ed on Wafer street, Ingersoll, nud kniTWp in olden time ns Ilie “Bed Mills," (although new painted white,) have during the past ' few months undergone great improvemcute ' under the Imnda of the present proprietors, Messrs. W. & J- Partlow. A powerful steam ongiuo nnd boiler have been put in, to sup­ ply additional power during low water, and several other Internal improvements have bnnn made, the lost of which is the addi­ tion of a corn cob crusher. This machine crashes up the corn and cob tagetber, and makes a most excellent article of feed for stock. The machine can nlso bo applied to shelling the corn ami grinding it separ­ately, if required. This mitt has done a good deal of work in its lime, and with its present facilities—a slcnm power driving three ran of stones nud this corn-crnsber. has still a large field of nsefulness for the future, which ifs present energetic and enterprising proprietors will not bu slow to take advantage of. SAD POISONING CASE. — Ou Saturday evening, Cth inst., Mary GriOi’t, daughter of Mr. Griffin who resides on Bay Street, Woodstock, obtaineil some Paris Green anil having swallowed a small quantity of it. died in a few hours. An emetic was ad­ ministered nt once after tho poison was swallowed, aud the services of a physiciau secured in a few minutes, but nil efforts proved of no avail, tbo child dying enrly Sunday morniiig, some seven or eight honis after taking the fatal dose. The Paris Green was in a bottle, nud placed npou the top of a cupboard, nnd in order to ranch it the child was obliged to stand upon a high chair. Childish curiosity it is sup­posed Induced (ho little girl—who was only a little over three years old—to go to so much trouble to got the poison. The par­ents na may bo supposed feel their loss keenly, but they have the satisfaction of knowing that it was not through any care­lessness on their part in leaving Ilie potato bug exterminator where it could bo easily c-t hold of. Of course they never thought of a child so young climbing ou tho top of A cupboard for anything so unattractive as an ordinary bottle. SHOCKINO CASE OF III TREATMENT.—A Port Burwell correspondent writes:—“ A somewhat intricate case cam> before one of our'Magistrates within the last few days, the facts of which, ns stated by the girl, and others, are as follows :—Mr. Elwin McCallum, living near this place, about five years ago got a girl from Uto Orphan Heme Industrial School at Hamilton, the giil being then ton years old, according to her own account.

In answer to the magistrate aha told him she did not want to punish him ; nil sire wanted was to get away from him. The Magistrate believing bo could do nothing in the matter <lismisa«d the case and li t her go. On tbo following day Mr. , McCollum came down to take the girl back, Mr. MeCollum went for th* Magistrate, who threatened her with a warrant before 1 aha could be induced to go home w th him.On the same day one of my neuLb'ra hsp- pen cd to b* in town, and after bearing ifja ■ case, started with a witneiw that raw the I condition the child Was in, to another Mag- i iatrate living in tbis township, who took 1 th* information against Mr. McCollum and T.
