Eclipses of the Sun are caused by the interposition of the body of the Moon between our eyes and the Sun — and I'^olipses of the Moon by a real deprivation of light from the Moon occasioned by the shadow of the earth.

" Poor devils, you'll have cause to rue The moment tliat ^vc met ; When fretting 'twixt a ))roil and stew, Stark staring mad you get ; You'll not ' resolve into a dew,' But luelt down iu a sweat." The ■wondrous conformation of the heavens has interested mankind fron) the earliest ages, — from the period when our first parents rejoiced together in the garden of Eden, to that auspicious moment when the " wise men of the east" beheld the glorious star of Bethlehem beaming in the firmament. Comets, from the earliest period of man's history, have been regarded with feelings of superstition, and as the harbingers of extraordinary events. Such impressions now dwell only on the minds of the weak and ignorant ; yet the suddenness of the approach of comets, their often eccentric movements and changes of appearance, and their enor- mous magnitude, will ever cause these phenomena to be contemplated witli reverential awe. Tiic expected comet, as stated in last year's Almanack, is that of 1264 and 1 5ij(5, and, as was also stated, would most probably make its ap- pearance between June, 1857, and August, 1858. Several astronomers have investigated, by laborious calculations, the question of the identity of this comet. It appears that the elements upon which their respective calculations have been formed liave dittered considerably ; and not being so exact as those upon which some other comets w^ere calculated, their observations are considered somewhat imperfect. It is, however, very probable that a great comet, revolving round the sun in the long period of nearly thi-ee centuries, was observed in 1264 and 1550. Assuming the comets of these years to be appari- tions of the same body, its return towards the sun may be anticipated after the lapse of a corresponding interval. The franderer is now over due, as full three centuries have elapsed since 1550. But as its period of revolution may be lengthened by planetary perturbations, the look- out will not be hopeless for a year or two longer. It is, therefore, not unlikely that the comet will revisit us between the present and the next year (if it does not appear before). It is, however, quite possible that this may be done without a chance of the olyect becoming visible, or at any rate conspicuous to the naked eye ; Avhile it is certain from obsei'- vations of tiie Comet of 1550, that its orbit is so situated that it cannot 6 HKU'IIKKS FAUMKIl S [1850. approacli the Karth witliln some five millions of miles, which is more than niiiott'ori times the tlii-tanco of tlie iiipon. Siiould the Comet disclose itself to our view, having the same or nearly the same orbit with the one of 1 ;');")('), its identity with it will be estal)Iished, and a body be added to our system, followini^ an elliptical patii so immensely elonj^atod as to re(|uire the i)eriod of 1500 years to travel through it. Shot. id it not be seen, it may still have been drawn back by the chain of solar influence, after a jotirney of thousands of millions of miles beyond the remotest of the known ])lanets, without being visible, owing to unfavourable circumstances for observation, or to the vast changes in magnitude and appearance whicli cometary bodies have been observed t(j undergo. Should neither event transpire, no reproach will rest upon astronomers, as they have not announced the expected Comet with that certainty of assertion with which an eclipse, or a transit is predicted, but simply as a matter of fair proba- bility.

As a general rule, all succulent food, or such as contains large ciuantities of water, is best for winter food for Milch Cows, for the production of large quantities of milk in winter. Most field-roots contain about seven-eighths to nine-tenths water ; and these are therefore milk producers. Hran, largely mixed with water, operates in a similar manner. Still-fed cows are often taught to drink enormous quantities of " slop," and so yield large milkings of a poor, washy, unhealthy product. Carrots and corn-stalks (the latter being usually quite a juicy focxl, when the stocks themselves are consumed as when small grown by being thickly sown, as directed in the calendar '"June,) in- crease the quantity, but still more the richness of winter milk. The following is also another mode of feeding for getting the greatest quantity and best quality of milk : — for every cow, boil half a bushel of turnips ; whf'u boiled soft, add 4 qts of bran, mix well, and let it stand till cool. Give your cow a boiled mess of this once a day, and you will find the milk to increase, and the milk does not taste of the turnips as it does when they are fed raw. Ity adding the brau while the turnips are hot, the bran swells, and you get the full good of it. I [1859. rizon. le horizon.

The season for grafting is ajipruacliing. There is no kind of labour which brings a richer return than a few hours spent in !,'rafting. There is no lUlliculty now in pro- curing scions of tlie most api)ro\'eil varieties, gratis, or at a rate merely nominal. The best scions fur apple trees, are obtained from the last j-ear's growth, on the points of bearing limbs. The scions may be cut any time iliiriiig February or March, and placed in a cellar with the butts upon the grountl where the air will nut strike them. Grafting wax may be made in the proportion of 21 lbs. rosin. 1 lb. tallow, and f lb. beeswax, melted together and poured into a tub of water. If it should be too sticky, more bees- wax may be used. 1'robalj.ly the best time for grafting apple trees Is from the 15th. of April to the 10th. of May. If tlie grafting is to be done iu May, the scions should be cut earlier in the season. Tlie best mode for preserving scions is to till a large box with fine pulverized moss, or still better, with moist saw-dust, in which the grafts are simply immarsed, and which are thus packed away or withdrawn with the greatest ease at any desired moment. A box of saw-dust, iu a cool cellar, will remain moist without watering fur many weeks. I [J 851). c C's >iuh. place ) 4:!

Mow, bind, and dry very thorouglily. Make very small stacks, to prevent heating — salt well. Four to six tons are yielded by one acre : tlie stalks l)eing fine all are eaten. Do not sow broadcast. It is said that 3 tons of this fodd(;r for cows is better than 4 tons of the best liay. The value of the crop depends much on the seed sown. Tlic common large sweet corn is considered the best. It may be cut when not more than a foot high, as it will start again and afford a second cutting, but it is deemed lust when the stalk is fully grown, and the graia begimiing to form.

It is more hardy and leas liable to disease and to insects than the carrot. Its culture should be that of the turnip and carrot, belnp a green crop and reriuirini; a deep soil for the growth of its roots. They should be stuRled whenever the plant can bo seen, to a distance of or 8 inches apart in the drill — the stems and leaves spreading more than those of the carrot, require more room. Should be sown a.s early as jiossible In the spi'ing ; it may also be sown in the fall. The Carrot, Parsnip and 31an{,'el Wurtzel suffer little from Insects. [1859. jr East. ? S.
