126 THE 
AGRICULTURAL GAZETTE. — 
barns, one 70 feet by 33, another 50 by 26, and another 
hipped roof with cupola, 57 by 25, besides a large over- 
shoot stable and hay house, stable high of stone, 60 fect 
by 30—the lower floors of all these are made of. broken. 
stone and lime, p.anked, being vermin proof. There 
are also, a corn crib capable of holding 1200 bushels of 
corn, one barrack, ample hog-pens, and sheds for carts 
and waggons. The barn buildings have been filled this 
fall to their utmost limit, except the corn crib. A sul 
ica stone wall encloses the principal manure heap ; 
the brim from this heap are led into a place of de- 
posit, in which are received also a drain that runs ey 
ground from the kitchen, as well as drainings from th 
g-pens, and the washings from all the yards. These 
sings form an important item in the supply of ma- 
dra 
nure to my land ; it is a saving which I cannot estimate 
at less than 200 dollars a year. This liquid by a simple 
process is applied to the patches of roots, &c., and to this 
may be aseribed my great success in raising such erops. 
Of improved eattle, my first effort was with the cele- 
brated * Dairy Maid, still owned by me. Her first calf, 
Lennder, by W hitaker’ s Prince of Northumberland,was 
reařed and kept by me, for breeding. Dairy Maid’s 
caly lone, exclusive of Leander, lave already sold for 
more than 500 dollars. It would be curious to trace her 
rotit at this day, by stating an account of her first cost, 
her keep, and that of her son Leander ; crediting her by 
sales of her own calves and grand calves; deducting for 
the portion of the capital which was inves ied in the dams 
that produced the grand calves. To do this, would ex- 
tend this paper to an unusual length—suflice it to say, 
that Dairy Maid has long since paid for herself, and 
thnt those who laughed at me for giving 540 dollars for 
one eow, may turn this statement over in their minds, 
and think, whether since. 1838 any investment of theirs, 
to the same amount, in any other branch of husbandry, 
has paid so well. But there is a satisfaction beyond 
that of the pocket, and that is, that Dairy Maid’s breed 
will be of infinite service to the country, Her calves 
and grand calves are protiy well seattered already—and 
I make no doubt, that wherever found they will pP 
strate the high character of the parent stock. My sales 
for the last two years, exclusive of Dairy Maid’s calves, 
amount to over 2000 dollars. The stock now on hand 
is about 40 head, principally Durhams. The butter sold 
for the last two years exceeds 750 dollars; this isa 
respectable item, when the calves that were reared, and 
the supply for my family, are taken into vie; From 
early fall to spring, the butter averaged 70 Ibs. per week 
—the quality highly appreciated both abroad and at home. 
**Tnthe hog line I have been quite successful, at least 
in bringing the.animal by judicious crossing to great 
perfection. I fatted off my old Lincoln and "Berkshire 
Boars, and my Hampshire and Chester county sows 
last month 5-they weighed from 400 to 450 Ibs d for 
86 dollars 24 cents. Have sold the last^two years of 
pigs, designed for breeding, 150 dollars, Bacon, lard, 
&e., over 120 dollars, besides haying on hand 14 fine 
young barrows, last fall's pigs, now ready for slaughter, 
which will. weigh froni 250 to 300 lbs. each, value 150 
dollars. “The stock on hand consists of one fine boar of 
Lineoln, Hampshire, and Berkshire breed ; one brood 
ow of Berkshire breed, 12 shoats and seven pigs." d
