By EDWARD QUINCY. 
By a mistaken notion, that, a considerable extent of land is 
requisite to enable a farmer to keen many head of cattle, a 
most wasteful proportion of.it is sometimes retained for the 
sole purpose of pasturage; and thus, compared with its in¬ 
herent productive flower, made useless. This little hook 
cannot fail to bo read with interest by many a farmer.
