MONEY MARKET.!
MONEY MARKET. On Friday there was no business done on change. On Saturday the English fundi opened with steadiness, but subsequently experienced a slight relapse. Consols for money were first quoted 93t to 1, and the final bargains were 93! to 1 far money, and 931 to 4 for the 5th of Dec. The funds were dull on Monday, and declined an eight; on Tuesday there was an improvement of an eighth, but there were afterwards several realizations, and after a temporary relapse of more than a quarter per cent., the market closed at the quotations of Monda y On Woduesday very little alteration was reported in Pub- lie Securit;ei-generzilly remained steady at the fractional recovbry tbftt took pl ice on Tuesday afternoon, Consols being 93 93] for money, and 9St 93j for the 5th proximo. The transactions were chiefly confined to the liquidation of the Account, and the necessary arrangements did not appear to exercise much influence upon the quotations, which continusd to derive much support from the prevailing abindauceand easiness of money, while the steadiness of the Paris Bourse also exerted a favourable influence. Ra- ther more firmness was reported in the New Threes and Reduced Annuities, but some of the Indian Stocks appear flatter. On Saturday the quotations in the Stock Market were Bank Stock, 229 to 231; Reduced and New Three per Cents., 9U to India Stock. 225 to 227; India Five per Cents., 1051 to i Rupee Paper, 93 ..nd 105; India Bonds, lis to 15s premium and Exchequer-bills (March), 5s to 8s; (June), 13s to 16s premium.

I AGRICULTURAL INTELLIGENCE.
I AGRICULTURAL INTELLIGENCE. STOKING OF MANGOLD WURZEL.—Please let mo know which way you would recommend me to store mangold wurzel for the wi-,iter. I must lift them at once t > prepare the land they are on for wheat; also let me know if these crop. are good for cattle.—An OLD SUHCHIBER. [In the county of Ross it is advisable to store mangold in the same manner as carro's and potatoes are stored-viz., in pits. The covering of earth should be light at first, with openings in the top They should be kept till spring, when you find them very valuable fur ewes nursing lambs, and for cows in milk. They can also be given to feeding stock along with turnips, or by themselves. Mangolds are very suit- able f,r pulping 'o be mixed with cut straw.] I A MIXTURE OF VARIETIES OF WHEAT.—In your paper of 23J inst. you have an article on mixing wheats for seed. What kinds would you recommend as suitable for cold-bot- tomed land with a northern exposure, such as is generally seeded with Northumberland Red or Dantzic Creeping Wheat ?-SUBSClURER (If you prefer red varieties, to 2 bushels Spalding add 1 bushel of Bmwick and 1 bushel of Lammas Red. If a mixture of Red and White, the following mixture should suit your soil :-1 bu,hel Spalding, 1 bushel Browick, 1 bushel of Hopeton or Hunter's, and 1 bushel of Fenton. The Spalding and Browick are about eight days later in ripening than the other varieties named, but as they require to be reaped earlier to secure a fine sample of grain, the mixture will suit if the crop is reaped when the early varieties are fully matured.] BURNING OF WHINS—Can the buring of whins be con- strued into the burning of heath or muir? or, by burning whins in the month of May, with scarcely a particle of hea- ther near them, am I liable to the penalty imposed by sec. 4, cap. 54 of au act passed in the thirteenth year of the reign of his Majesty George III entituled An Act for the More Effectual Protection of Game in that Part of Great Britain called Scotland ?" —ENQUIRER. [We would suggest the propriety of consulting your legal agent as to drawing ilip a memorial for the opinion of counsel. As you put the case there will be considerable doubt, as while whins were only intended to be burnt, there was scarcely a patch of heather, yet there was heather. If the case is brought into Court, much will depend upon the nature of the proof led, and not a little upon the presiding judge,] SWELLINGS AND HOW TO REDUCE THEM.—Having two farm horses badly knapped, I will feel obliged by your giv- ing me your opinion as to treatment, how to get rid of such. They are both very quiet mares, and not given to kicking. I may say that one of them was blistered very severely, but to no effect. The knap still continues s 'ft.— A WEST. LOTHIAN FARMER. [It is difficult to presciioe for the reduc- tion of these swellings without knowing their exact nature and position—important points concerning which your letter is silent. If resulting from bruises, they may probably contain matter which will require to be let out. This may be safely done,provided the swellings are unconnected with any joint or tendonous sheath, the opening of which is generally attended with serious consequences. Tendonous sheaths of burssc, such as we refer to, are found especially in the limbs, and when those about the fetlocks are enlar- ged, constitute the familiar windgalls. They are usually diminished by rest and pressure, can by the fingerj be moved only over a difinite circumscribed spot, and result especially from strains and over.exertion. Swellings, on the o'hur hand, connected with the joints and tendons, are usuaily traceable to external injuries, are more diffused, and less modulated, are softened by poulticing, or reduced by blistering. These observations may help you to discover the nature of the case. As to the treatment; if you are doubtful or averse to having the swellings opened, apply once or twicc a large hot bran poultice, which may possibly increase the softening, and, by causing the thinuing of the skin, bring it nearer the surface. It is possible, especially if the swellings are of long standing, that, in addition to the pas or matter, some portion of thorn, dirt, or the like may be lodged in the part, and will require removal before entire relief can be given. In swellings of old standing, the opening, besides being in the lower part to allow of the draining away of the matter, should also be of good size, and had better be kept open for a few days by a little piece of tow inserted between the lips of the wound. This pre- vents any matter being again closed in, and favours the healing up of the cavity from below.] ABORTION AMONGST AYRSHIRE QUE VS.— I have two three-year old Ayrshire queys that should have calved in January, but they both calved when between five and six months gone with calf. I would like to keep them another year, and give them another trial. If you can suggest any means to be tried now, to prevent a recurrence of the same, [ shall feel much obliged by an answer in an early number. I may state that I have had several cases every year for the last four or five years, but as I have had none for six months I thought I was clear of it. I have tried various means, such as keeping a he-goat bleating, and removing those affected as soon as possible, but as yet without any apparent advantage. About this time last year I sold a quey which did not take the bull for nearely three months after it left me, and was removed from this upwards of 50 miles. I have just learned that it calved when about the same time gone in calf as those I have were. I purpose wintering my two out to keep them clear of the rest of the cattle, and that they may have pure air.-H. W. [Abortion in various j parts of the country occurs tj a great and almost ruinous oxtent, often appears without any assignable cause, and defies even the most skilfully devised precautiins. In cows, as in other animals, it appears connected in some way ar other with domestication, and is usually troublesome amongst well bred animals of any of the improved races. But high breeding and artificial management are not its invariable accompaniments. It occasionally visits ttle dairies amongst the Welsh hills, where the little animals, with small pretension to breeding, roarn their natural pis- tures. In some years it is in certain localities usually prevalent. During the past autumn, dairy farmers com- plained much regarding it. Although seldom much noyed by it, the accident has, within the last four months, overtaken seven of our best Shorthorn cows aud a neigh- bour last week consulted us who has hid six caes since harvest, and has during the last few years had an annual I average of twice that number. He finds it prevail especially amongst his heifers and younger cows. In the present, as in other seasons when abortion is common, it is notice- able that many cows do not hold to the bull and this, although often regarded as an entirely different circumstance, is merely abortion occuring during the first four weeks of gestation. Animals that have once aborted arc, as is well known, exceedingly liable to do so again, ?nd especially about the corresponding period of gestation. If, therefore, your cows are again in calf, watch them narrowly as they approach the period of pregnancy when the accident oc- curred last time. It should be managed that they then be in moderate condition-neither too poor nor too fat. As the time approaches, have them placed by themselves, either in a small paddock, or as isgenr-raily better, in a court, box, or yard. Feed moderately and rather sparingly. If the animals are in high condition, a little blood may be abstic. ted, and especial care mtht be taken by attention to met to keep the bowels in a healthy state. It is of great impor- tance that iiie bowels be kept, by diet and an occasional laxative, in good working order for so great is trie sym- pathy between them and the worrib, or in other words, so intimately are they connected by the same great nervous circle, that any disturbance or irritation of the digestive organs is very apt to extend to the womb, and thus break up the connection between the mother and the fcetus. All bad smells, of which ccws are very sensitive, must further be avoided. No pigs or sheep must bo killed in yards or phces to which the animals have access, and nu blood left about. Everyone has noticed how cows snoff at and become excited over such things, and in several instances we have known of cows aborti ve shortly after smelling at blood inadvertently left in their way. Cows should not be allowed to calve beside others that are in calf, as these j latter speedily become cognisant of what is going on, and the excitment thus induced is often sufficient to cause them to abort. In like manner one cow aborting in a field is very apt to induce others to do the same, and hence it is always advisable at once to remove the cow and foetus, and keep her for a week or two separate from the rest of the in-calf animals. Over driving, galloping from the attacks of flies, disturbance from dogs, also rank as causes of abortion. Cows that have slipped calf should not be put to the bull for two or three months after, for when thus served they j rarely hold in calf. Indeed, many careful breeders allow a still longer interval to elapse, and wait for a time corres- i ponding to three weeks after the full period that the cow should have carried her calf before again allowing her access to the bull. Your keepini; a he-goat as a preven- tive of abortion may be attended with the same benefit ascribed to the practice common in many English dairy counties of keeping a donkey with the cows. How this can affect production of abortion is quite inexplicable on any rational or scientific grounds, and yet we know of many sensible and extensive dairy farmers who ascribe their immunity from abortion to their thus keeping a donkey amongst their cows, and consider the plin effectual owing to the donkey eating some noxious grasses with which they fancy the disease is connected].
ADMINISTRATION OF ARSHNIC…
ADMINISTRATION OF ARSHNIC TO ANIMALS. The common saying that "one man's tood is another man's poison," has seldom been more literally illustrated than in the case of the peasantry of Hungary, Styria, and Tyrol, many of whom regularly consume arsenic-a sub- stance well known as an active poison. They take it daily: in doses varying from a quarter of a grain to a grain, and even more. The young women use it to render them plump, improve their complexions, and thus increase their attractions in the eyes of the opposite sex; whilst the men consume it to increase their endurance, and especially their capacity of climbing their lofty mountains in a clear and rarified atmosphere. It is for a similar end that it is given to horses. Not the least curious tact in regard to the prac- tice is, that although the person or animal may continue for years to take the drug, with apparent impunity, they cannot safely cease its employment, for when the habit is attempted suddenly to be discontinued, the appetite, it is stated, fails, the stomach is disordered and extremely irri- table, and many of the symptoms of arsenical poisoning present themselves. By a few doses of the drug, these untoward appearances are speedily put to flight, and the patient recovers his appetite, spirits, and strength, ihe eating of arsenic has been introduced into Turkey, and various contiguous opium eating countries, and is used by the inveterate chewers of the opium to extend and increase the short-lived happiness of their narcotic quid. In our own country it is also said to be occasionally employed, but the popular dread of its poisoning properties fortunately prevents its adoption. Amongst horses, "e fear it is more commonly used, servants being tempted to give it on account of the fine coat and plump appearance it produces. A. few grains in a calico bag attached to the bit is also one of the means adopted by the coachmen of the "upper ten thousand," to cause the abundant white froth, which, it would appear, is regarded as an aristocratic adornment. It is certainly unnecessary to condemn such a practice as the giving of arsenic in anv form or under any pretence, for even granting that its exhibition in small doses is harm- less, there is ever the risk of exceeding the safe dose, and moreover, as already remarked, if the drug be suddenly withheld, much injury, and according to some, even fatal poisoning may ensue. From the use of arsenic and an- timony given by ignorant and would.be-wiae waggoners, scores of horses are every year lost in many districts of England, where the drugging both of horses and men is greatly more common than in Scotland. We tubjoin some interesting remarks by Dr. Camps on the exhibition of arsenic to the animals of Hungary, compiled from the valuable observations published several years ago by Dr. Tschudi. Each fijroom has his own mode of giving it, but adheres rigorously to his method when once coaitosneed; yet all agree oa this point, that the arsenic should be given to the horses, onlv nt the new moon. Some give it every day at this time i:i do3es of three or four graim others administer it during two days in succession, those omitting it during two days increasing the dose on the following two days, and so on until the full of the moon. During the intervals they administer to the horse an alvetic purge once a week. The grooms observe most scrupulously the rule to administer the arsenic to the horses only after having taken their food and drink Tho vehicle in which they give the arsenic is a piece of plain bread If the animal is in use whilst the drug is being administered, it is wrapped in a piece of linen, or it is scattered on a piece of lard or bacon, which is also wrapped in linen, and fastened either to the bars of the manger or to the snaffle. It appears that a portion of the poisonous drug is eliminated with the excrement, for such fowls as eat of the grains of oa's contained in the horse dung of such as have been submitted to this arsenical treatment have been observed to be killed by so doing. These grooms contend that arsenic is an infallible pre- servative against colic, which horses are liable to when fed upon rye, which grain, as is well known, predisposes to that disorder. The employment of arsenic in the case of horned cattle is less frequent; it is given only to oxen and to calves designed to be fattened. In this case, too, the same lunar conditions are respected as were noticed above, and the arsenical pow- der is administered to the ox in guel mixed with chopped straw, and which has been infused in hot water. The effect is described as perfectly astonishing as regards the increase in the size of the animal, although it does not gain propor- tionally in weight. On this account, butchers will seldom buy at sight cattle fattened in this manner, for the real weight is considerably less than the apparent weight of the animal. It is scarcely necessary to remark that this arseni- cal process is only put in force for animals destined for fattening, and never for those intended for the plough, or for draught of any kind. In Styria, as in Austria, there are cattle breeders who, on account of adopting this practice, are known by the name of Hidribauer," or arsenic men. Arsenic is also frequently given in small doses to pigs, especially at the commencement of their fattening when a daily dose of the sulphuret of antimony is also given. It has been noticed that the purified sulphuret of antimony (nntimonij sulplmretwn ingrum Icevigatuni), whilst the unpurified sulphuret of antimony usually contains 110 inconsiderable quantity of the sulphuret of arsenic, whereas by purification this latter ingredient is removed. At Vienna the grooms and coachmen mix a good pinch of white arsenic with oatmeal, and wrap a piece the size of a pea in linen, and affix it t) the bridle when the horse is harnessed when the saliva from the animal dissolves the drug gradually, The glossy smooth and freshened aspect of valuable horses, and especially the white foaming at the mouth is caused very commonly by arsenic, which. ar is well known increases the salivary secretion. The drivers in mountiinous countries ve-y frequently introduce a dose of arsenic iuto the forage they give their horses previous to undertaking a laborious ascent. The jockeys freq :ontly also make use of small shot for short winded animals that they intend taking to market. It is believed that the constant effect of this practice, an effect which lasts for some i days is due entirely to the arsenic known to be contained in the shot. It is to be observed that the exhibition of arsenic to animals is subjected to the same condition as the arsenic players, or arsenic eiters practise themselves, and it would not be uninteresting to know if the beneficial effects of small doses of this poison observed in the case of animals has led the peasants in those countries to make the same experiments upon themselves or vice tersa if this practice of administering arsenic to animals bas been the consequence of observing its effects when administered to the human subject.
;FARM CALENDAR FOR NOVEMBER.
FARM CALENDAR FOR NOVEMBER. THE FARM.—The sowing of wheat, the storing of turnips, the thrashing of grain, the carting of manure, and the ploughing of stubbles, occupy the time of the labourers and horses on the farm. WHEAT SOWING.-SeCd the land as it is ploughed to preyent delay should rains occur between ploughing and sowing. Increase slightly tilo atio-ance of manure and of seed, securing a clean sample from an early district. A mix- ture of varieties will generally yield a larger produce than any one variety grown singly. As the land is cleared of turnips, it may be ploughed and seeded, but there is risk of the wheat plants dying out during winter or in spring, when turnip land is seeded as it is ploughed up in autumn. If the land is sandy with the subsoil porous, the seed can be ploughed down with advantage, the depth of furrow not exceeding four inches. Previous to sowing the turnip leaves should be evenly spread, to prevent them collecting on the coulter of the plough, and thus forming heaps. In any districts suitable for the cultivation of wheat-sowing, it may be continued during the whole of this mouth, and may be continued during the following month in districts where the climate is highly favourable. Avoid overharrowing, and elear out the water furrows except the land is thoroughly drained. If the drainage is complete and the action of the drains perfect, the furrows should not be drawn by the pluugh. MANGOLDS, CARHOTS, and PARSNIPS should be stored without delay. The leaves of the mangold can be given to sheep or cattle still at pasture. As food for cows, the leaves are superior to the bulbs. The bulbs should be stored in pits, and covered with straw and earth. Carrots are selling at high rates, therefore every care should be taken to pre- serve them for table use. The most common method of nising carrots out of the ground is by the spade; some, however, prefer graips. In removing the leaves, care should be taken not to cut the bulos. Tho tapering root. should be allowed to remain until the carrots are dressed for the market. Place them in small pits, covering the heaps with a thin coating of dry straw, and afterwards with a light covering of o..d.i1 0'-01 ilie straw, The straw may be Ais- pensed with if the soil is dry and triable TURNIPS should be stored to meet the occurrence of wet or frosty weather. So long as the soil is dry, and the wea- ther such as that those engiged iu pulling, s iawing, aud rooting, the turnips suffer no inconvenience from the ex- posure. Keep all hands engiged. The white and yellow varieties will not generally grow liiuch more, but even a d- mitting that the bulbs will increase in size, it is very im- portant to store 'Hm during dry weather and when the land is dry. Swedes may remain in the ground until the sea- son is further advanced, but where g ame is abundant the Swedes should be lifted and stored as soon as possible, as the bulbs, once broken by hares, &c., rapidly deteriorate. So long as the mania for game continues, fanners require to keep a vigilant look-out that tho crops arc removed as speedily as it is possible to harvest them. lurnip land should be ploughed with a moderate furrow not exceeding seven inches in depth, and in seme eases not exceeding five inches. If the land has been poached pre- vious to the storing of the crop a deep furrow is advisable, the htnd being afrjr-?rJ? exposed to the action of Hie frst. Seedin&, be i ii? Seeding being delayed u?tit several days of frost has mcHo- 'ated the SJil. Pf.ju?h the land S) as to keep it Ibt except it is only partially drained. STUBBLE LAND should be turned over with a deep strong furrow, anil where the drainage is perfect, the farrow should bo across the line of the ridges. It is very important to siir deep at this season the uction of the atmosphere will disintegrate the newly exposed subsoil. °r gre-jn crops, it is important to have the soil deeply moved iii autumn. MANURE may be appliel on trie stu ble land preparatory to ploughing. The quantity should be rather restricted, 80 that a greater breadth of land may be manured in autumn. To prevent waste of the fertilising constituents of the manure, cart from the steading to the fields, spreading it as it is laid down in heaps. The manure may be exposed after it is spread for months without losing any of its fertilising elements. The furrow turning down the manure should be deep, and placed rather upright. This position of the furrow will tend to the better incorporation of the manure with the soil when the land is stirred in spring. OLD PASTURE and LEA LAND may bo ploughed this month. Where the depth of the soil admits of a deep fur- row, it should be turned over with a strong rather than with row, it should be turned over with a stron?- ay be ten inches, a neat furrow. The depth of the furrow may be ten inches, and should not be under six inches. THHASI-l grain to obtain straw for fodder and for litter so that the stock may kept comfortable. The best conditioned stacks should be thrashed as the grain realises a relatively higher price than damp grain. If any stack is not keeping Weti, or has much of the perpendicular, it should be either thrashed or turned over. The grain, as it is cleaned of chaff, &c., should be marketed. COLLECT LEAVES, FERNS, and other vegetable substances to use as litter. Besides the increase of manure so obtained, the stock will thrive better by being kept dry and comfort- able. Where sawdust can be obtained in a dry state, it can also be used for bedding cattle courts, byres, and stables The dust of deciduous trees is much more valuable as manure than the dust of pine trees. Apart from the amount of resin present, retarding the decomposition of the woody fibre, the timber of deciduous trees usually contains a larger percentage of the mineral constituents of plant life. The shelling seeds of oatmeal mills can also be used for littei- II where such can be obtained at little outlay. In those districts where chalk or gypsum can be secured at a nominal price it should be used to absorb the liquid. By placing a layer of calcareous matter over the cattle courts and byres after the whole of the manure is removed, it will, by ret un- ir.g the urine and liquid, prove valuable to mix with the I farmyard dung preparatory to its being applied to the land. Burnt clay can be used for the same purpoi c, but it is in- ferior to the calcareous material, the nitrate of lime being foimed when the urine is absorbed by the calcareous sub- stance. Peat earth is suitable for absorbing the liquid of the cattle courts. COMPOST.-Study to increase the compost heap by collect- ing all vegetable, animal, and earthy substances, to which add lime shells at the rate of one cart loud of lime to two, four, ix: of the other substances. Salt may also be added at the rate of four cwts. to forty cart loads of compos- The heap should be turned twice tt, incorporate the whole to- gether. IRRIGATE MEADOW AND PASTURE LANDS where it is possible to apply water. The effect of the water will depend upon its quality, also upon the character of the soil and subsoil. rhe thorough drainage of the lands is essential if the suosoil is not so pourous as to admit of the descent and escape of the water. FENCES.—If the switching of thorn fences is not com- pleted for the season, finish without delay. When cut after the occurrence of frosty nights, the vegetative powers of the plants are irapairud. This impaired vitality will be very marked next summer if the cutting is executed during severe frost. Young fences should be dug at the roots. STOCK.—See to the comfort of all animals on the farm by securing sufficient food and shelter-tue essential conditions to maintain condition and health. CATTLE being fattened should be fe(I regularly, the food placed before them being sufficient to their appetite, but not more than what will be eaten up clean by the time the next supply is given. The tr-ughs and boxes should be regu- larly cleaned out of all earth or refuse matter. In sup- plying turnips and diseased potatoes to stock, cleanliness is very important to secure rapid progress. The fattening animal should not only eat as much as the appetite impels him to eat, but he should relish the food to assimilate the greatest possible amount of the constituences contained in the food. Oleaginous cakes should be allowed to those cattle well advanced in condition, so that they may be ready for the market during December or January. A mixtuie of oleaginous cakes and meals will generally give the best return for the outlay in the purchase of such feeding sub- stances. Four lbs. of cake and two lbs. of the meal of I any of the grains should be -,n ample allowance for full- ) sized cattle. Cattle intended to lie depastured next year may still be kept at pasture. If, however, they are cross-bred, Ihe sire being a Shorthorn, they should bo housed during the night, receiving fodder with a s'nall qumtity of tur- nips. Calves and stirks should receive two to four lb;. of cake in the morning previous to being turned out to graze. The oleaginous food will tend to prevent such inflammatory complaints as black-leg. The pasture grasses should be free of hoar frost before the animals enter the field. Cows should be fed on a mixture of cut straw and pulped roots, over which gruel prepared from rapecake and meal is put, and afterwards mixed. Cows expected to produce in January should be gradually dried, the food given being less nutritious and given comparatively dry. To secure health, study to maintain a pure atmosphere, and guard against draughts. Both conditions are liable to endanger health, and if disease is present the complaint will be difficult to treat, consequently the liability to a fatal termination greatly increased. The prevalence of pleura- pneumonia amongst dairy stock should induce owners to bestow greater attention to the prevention of disease by se- curing a pure atmosphere in the places where the animals are housed. SHEEP on turnips should now be regularly fed with a limited quantity of cake or corn. One-half lb daily for each sheep is sufficient for the first month. This allowance may be increased to one lb. daily. The fold should not be large, and a new fold should be given before the shells of the pre- vious fold are picked. The sheep should be admitted to the new fold when the turnip tops are dry, otherwise deaths may occur from inflammation of the urinary organs. To I guard against an undue distension of the bladder, the sheep should be raised early in the morning after they have been eating the turnip tops of a new fold. Some feeders cut off the leaves of the turnips previous to the shifting of the fold. When the leaves are succulent, this precautionary measure tends to prevent loss of sheep. Lambs should have the turnip cut, and the cut turnips placed in troughs. A shel- tered field is to be preferred. Ewes should he kept on stubble, young grasses, or the pasture fields. They should be changed from field to field. SHEEP STOCIC will now be arranged for the winter months. If a portion of the autumn cast of hill stock is still for sale they should be disposed of. The weak and sick of the hirsels should be kept in a sheltered place, and fed with cake and corn given at the rate of one pound daily for each sheep. Salt should also be accessible in a covered trough A lump of ruck salt is most suitable form to supply salt to sheep. By the end of the month a snow storm may occur, therefore, care should be taken that the sheep depasturing on the more exposed parts of the walk are not overtaken by the storm. DRESSING THE FLEKCE.—Where the sheep have not been already dressed for the prevention of skin diseases, no time should be lost. Those kept on arable lands should be dipped either in an arsenical bath, or a bath of tobacco liquor. Care should be taken that no accidents occur from the use of the bath. Hill stock may be either dressed with oil sold under various names, or they may be smeared with tar and butter. Every owner of hill stock should undertake experi- ments to test the relative value of other salves, compared with tar and butter. It hli not much to recommend it ex- cept on the most exposed or bleakest sheep walks. The feet of thosr sheep apparently affected with foot-rot should be examined, pire.l, and a mild caustic mixture applied. Old damp bottomed pastures are liable to induce foot-rot, but it often arises when sheep are grazed on luxuriant clover foggage. The condition of the sheep is rapidly impaired when the complaint is present in a flock therefore care should be taken to remove the complaint. PIGS. — Peed on cooked diseased potatoes, to which a small allowance of meal or bran is added. Those pigs being fattened, should have their food comp iratively dry, receiving it at stated periods Sows with litters require the food in a semi-liquid state. The most common error in feeding pigs is in giving the food too much diluted with water. Clean water should always be supplied at least once in the twentv- four hours. HORSES require special care this month to prevent in- flammation of the respiratory organs. Their food should be supplied regularly and in somewhat limited quantities. The period they are in the yoke being shortened, the allow- ance of oats may be slightly diminished. A few beans should be added to the oats, and if the beans and oats are g iven bruised the horses will derive more nutriment from the food. The fodder should be cut into chaff. Indeed, the whole of the fodder should be cut alike for horses, cattle, or sheep. DRAINING OPERATIONS should now be pushed, so that the whole may be completed previous to the occurrence of frost or wet weather. Secure a proper outlet for the drain- age water, and study to have the driins cut to a uniform depth; the bottom smooth, so that the tiles or pipes may be so placed as to form a uniform conduit for the water. The person appointed to lay the materials in the drains should hefamiliarwiththe operation. ODDS AND ENDS.—See that all water-courses are clear of obstructions, so that flooding of the adjoining lands may be avoided. Keep roads, stackyard, an:1 steading clean and tidy, by frequent applications of the rake, shovel, and graip. One perslll should be appointed to this office. By attention to such details the comfort of all requiring to be on the farm is in some measure secured. v- I
! THE CORN TRADE.I
THE CORN TRADE. I MABK-LANE, Monday. The past week, though very variable in temperature, has on the whole been much too dry for the country, though we had a plenteous fall of rain on Thursday night, followed by a sudden snowstorm on Saturday. It has been difficult in some places to get water for the horses at the country inns without paying for it, many wells and ponds continuing empty. But there seeins now a cluincn of ral'l"n:I" Tho heat ton, »" oppressive in Spain on the ihird week of Ootouer that the labouring animals almost sllllk under it. In Germany the drought his greatly impeded supplies, so that our present autumn is a perfect contrast to the last. The Wheat trade though still firm in many places, without any demand from France, has rather given way, say, on the average, Is per qr.; the week, however, closing with some advance iu several places. Our anticipations as to the over-excitement in the late French demand are now realized, as Paris itself shows a decline of 2s to 4s per qr, for the week; and the country generally is Is to 23 per qr. lower, and markets heavy. But, as with the present supply France does not seeiii to have more than seven to eight months' consumption, while nine to ten months are to be provided for, we have no doubt the French will finally come, In the meantime there is a far better opportunity for us to get in stock, Dantzic being down 2s to 3s per qr., and Odessa fully 2s, with a prospect of still further reduc- tion on accumula iiisj supplies. New York. too, partici- pates slightly in the downward movement, though scne foreign markets remain firm, with little difference in tlelj quotations. Sufficient fro3t has already been experienced in Germany to form ice, and the prospect of the close of the Baltic, without all immediate renewal of the French demand, may load to tho execution of British ordcis all easier terms. Last week's supplies of wheat wero gold, of oats large of other grain moderate. The exports were 1,151, qrs. wheat, 1,8;50 qrs. oats, an 1 3GS cwts. flour. Of British wheat the receipts last week were 8,793 qrs of foreign, 27,151 qrs., three-f iurtns Russian, lne supplies this moruing from Kent and Essex were very sm;ill, and factors sought an advance. Town millers continued retired, but some buyers fro n the North ?ou!d have operated freely, had there been bulk enough. A< it was, trade was agaikst i buyers Is per qr. Foreign qualities that were good wore really firm. Of country flour Ihsre were 16,416 sacks of foreign, 841 sacks 1.797 barrels. The trade generally had more tone, and most factors required higher rates for Norfolks and American barrels but there was hardly enough business to note any change in prices. Of Bri- tish barley there was 3,810 qr,3. of foreign, 5,793 qrs. Malting and a:l other descriptions, both blnglish and foreign, that were sweet, were full priced. The "It trade was calm and unchanged. Of oats there was 45.,985 qrs.,—viz., 10,120 qrs. of EngUh. 121 qrs. Scotch, 2,400 qra. Irish, and 33,331 qrs foreign. The better descnp- tions of old, and also English new, were little atleote by the large arrival but infori r sorts wore heavy and rather cheaper. Of English b ans there were J41 <lrs'i j of foreign 56 qrs. only. The market was in favour, both of English and foreign sorts, Is per qr. Of natives peaij there were 322 qrs. of foreign 1,260 qrs. So few English sainples appear, that prices keep hardening, and the same n:ay ba said of foreign white. Of linseed there were 1,670 qrB. The exports nil. The market was full-priced for crushing seed, but quiet. In seeds generally but little was doing, but canary was again 51 per qr. higher, 70i being rn;k e of foreign old. Tares quiet, as well as other seeds. LONDON, Wed nes,lay. -'I'll e supplies of English grain this week are small; those of foreign and flour are to a moderate extent. The attendance at this morning's market was limited, but included several buyers from various parts of the country. Wheat, both English and foreign, was more freely taken than on Monday, at that days prices. Spring corn of all descriptions is unaltered in value.

The Flour market during the past week in Paris has been excessively dull, and fully 2 francs lower, leaving rates at this reduction purely nominal. The range quoted was 82 to 88 francs per 157 kilos, (equal to 53-s to 578 6d per 280 lbs. linglish). The four marks were heavy, at 83 f. 26 c. (54s per 280 lbs.). Offers of Wheat were increasing, aud sellers more retired, at a decline on the best qualities of 1 f. to I f. 25 c. per 120 kilos., or about 2s per qr., with a greater fall on inferior, and a still greater riifficulty in sales. Red English was off-red at 4 i francs per 120 kilos. (71s per qr.), Danzig at 44 to 46 franc3 (68s to 71s), Some Ham- burg also brought 44 f. (68s per qr). American, offered at 40 to 41 francs (61s to 62s 9d), were unsold. For the best Burgogne 46 francs (71s) were unobtainable. Rye was also 9d per qr. lower, and dull, the best price being 25 f. 50 c. per 115 kilos. (39s 3d per qr.). Barley was still more de- pressed, at Is to Is Gd per qr. less money but Oats, though tending downwards, were not offered lower. Scarcely any- thing was doing in Cloverseed or Trefoil, and prices remained without change. The country Wheat tnarkes I were mostly declining, Beaumont-sur-Sartho and Brie 1 Comte Robert I f..50 c. per hect., or 3s 6d per qr.; but Caen was 2s GJ per qr. dearer. Rates were nominal at Nantes, a week having passed without biuiuess. Great stagnation prevailed at Havre also, the chief sales being on account of damagsd cargoes. The exporta'ions at this port in American Wheat and Flour were about 200,0)0 qrs. The drought was much felt at Bordeaux, and little was passing. Sales on the spot were much lower at Marseilles, but not for delivery. The decline in France had but little influence on the Belgian markets. For good Baltic Wheat, at Antwerp, 29s per heot. was paid; and holders of Rye were careless sellers. Stettin Barley brought 33s (H to 3.58 Gd. Liege was calm, under the influence of foreign advices, though the market was poorly supplied; but Rye was in active request, at an advance of 2s per qr. Barley also found a better sale. New Wheat to 68s 6d per qr. Fine new Wheat brought former rates at Rotterdam but lower sorts had declined Is per qr. Polish and Red Wheat of good quality went off well. Rye was still in favour. Barley and Oats unchanged. The want of water at Hamburg had made arrivals insig- nificant, and prices firm. A good business for delivery in spring had passed. White Wheat on the spot was quoted to 66s 6d, Saale red 61s 6d, for spring delivery 6(h 6d. For shipments from the outports rates were Is per qr. easier; good Holstein Wheat 60s, Pomeranian 633. Danish Barley was very dull. Rye very brisk, and Oats rather lower, and neglected. With dull accounts from Western Europe, and large supplies, Odessa had given way in Wheat prices, more especially in low sorts. Polish Odessa was procurable at 39,4 to 40s, Ghirka at 41s to 42s, and Sandomirka at 45s to 47s per qr. Maize 26s, Barley ISs to lSs 8d, and Oats 17s 6d to 18s 6d per qr. Freights 65s per ton.

THE CATTLE TRADE.__I
THE CATTLE TRADE. I LONDON, Monday.—The arrivals of cattle and sheep, See., into the port of London from the Continent dining the past week have been very large. The official Custom-house report gives an entrv of 2,466 oxen, 441 calves, 12,815 sheep, 477 pigs, and 14 horses, together making a total of 16,213 head, against- 7,673 for the corresponding period of list year, 5,071 in 1859, 3,356 in 1838, and 5,930 in 1S57. The supply of beasts was considerably less than on Monday last and the previous week, the total being 5,46') head, but which is still in excess of the usual iiutnber. Of 'h-: supply, however, to this day's market there was a very limited number of tLe best quality, for which the trade was good, and 5s per stone was easily obtaineil. The supply of sheep was short, being 20,700 head, and the trade was considerably improved for the best descriptions, white it wai, on the contrary, very dull for middling qualities. As much as 5s 81 per stone was obtained for the former, being 4d advance, Lut the latter descriptions went 2d per stone lower. The eal trade wis rather more cheerful, at fully previous prices, l'ork was steady. Comparative Statement of Prices and. Supply of Cattle to Market. j Monday, November 4, 1861.
