    Jans, Haulm & fioustliolti.
NOTED AND FOR THE
MONTH.
ISimpkins. —As soon as the vines are done
growing, and before hard frosts gather them
beneath open sheds, or in heaps, where they
tnay be covered with boards. Feed the green
and halfr ipe ones first. Store the best ones
in a dry, cool place for winter. Ne'er break
off the stems, or they soon begin to decay.
Save the seed of none but the best.
S'tr ins. —Look up a good brood sow for rais
ing pigs next year. Better pay SSO for a good
breeder than S2O for a sow that will not bear
over 3or 5 pigs. Prolificness is one of the
excellencies of a breeding sow. Better fatten
every hog now on hand, if the breed *is not
first-rate, and begin anew with a breed that
will fatten more readily.
Timber. —There is no better month in all
the year than October to cut timber, to insure
durability, especially for fences of all kinds,
and posts. Rails and stakes, out and split thi 8
month, will last longer than if cut and split in
winter, spring, or summer. The wood is well
matured, and the timber becomes thoroughly
seasoned before hot weather, which often
cracks the surface, allowing rain to enter.
Weeds. —Mowing, pulling, plowing and
hoeing weeds will be in order every leisure
hour tillwinter. Gather them all in large
heaps when they are wet, so that the seed will
not shell out. Better devote one day this fall
to pulling rag weed, wild mustard, and other
weeds in corn-fields lhan to spend a week next
season exterminating those that spring from
the seed now growing. It is very common for
weeds to bring forth ten thsnsand fold. If
thrown in a large pile before the seed becomes
hard, all will decay and make good manure.
Rye. —ln many places it is not too late to
sow this grain, where the ground is wet. If
the soil is apt to heave in winter, better not
put in winter rye, but prepare for spring rye.
Sheep. —ln some parts of the country; bucks
and ewes may be turned together in October.
Where the spring is always backward, and
there are cold storms of rain and snow, better
keep them separate a month longer. The pe
riod of gestation with ewes is about five
months. It is not good policy to have lambs
dropped until there is some grass and warm,
settled weather. Make necessary preparation
for improvements in sheep next season. —
American Agriculturist.
m m P
WORK IN THE ORCHARD.
Insects. —After :he leaves have fallen, clus
ters of eggs and cocoons may he discovered
and removed. Examine t.ees received from
the nurseries, near the root and if any borer
holes are found, crush in the insects with a
wire, and if the hark has the scale insect upon
it, wash it with strong soft soap water, or bet
ter, discard the tree altogether.
Labels. —Do not trust to labels alone, but
have a map or record of the position of every
tree; still labels are a great convenience, es
pecially upon young trees, before one gets
sufficiently acquainted with them to tell the
variety at sight See that all are plain, and
be sure that the wires by which they are sus
pended are sufficiently loose.
Manure. —lt is unreasonable to expect to
be able to carry off a crop year alter year
without returning something to the land. Ma
nuring bearing trees pays, not only in larger
crops of fruit, but in tlie finer development of
the individual specimens. The best method
of applying manure is given in the article "Is
Pear Culture Profitable?"
Trees. —These, except evergreens, may be
planted, as soon as the leaves drop. The
more carefully it is done, the better will be
the future growth.— American Agriculturist.
FACTS ABOUT MILK.
('ream cannot rise through a great depth of
milk. If, therefore, milk is desired to retain
its cream for a time, it should be put into a
deep, narrow dish; and if it be desired to free
it most completely of cream, it should be put
into a broad shallow dish, not much exceed
ing one inch in depth. The evolving of cream
is facilitated by a rise and retarded by a fall
of temperature. At the usnal temperature of
the dairy—so° Fahrenheit—all the cream will
probably rise in 36 hours; but at 70° it will
probobly rise in half that time, and when the
milk is kept near the freezing point, the cream
will rise very slowly, because it becomes sol'
idified. In wet and cold weather milk is less
rich than in dry and warm. The season has
its effects. The milk in the Spring is sup
posed to be the best for drinking, and hence
it would be best for calves: in summer, it is
best suited for cheese; and in autumn, the
butter keeping better than that of snminer,
the cows less frequently more butter. The
morning's milk is much richer than that of
the evening. The last drawn milk, the ' 'strip
pings" at each milking, and at all times and
seasons, is richer than that first "milked,'•
which is ever the poorest. — N. H. Journal of
Agriculture,
THE ROAD TO POOR FARMISfi.
1. Invest a'l your capital in land, and run
in debt for more.
2. Hire money to stock your farm.
3. Have no faith in your own business; and
be always readj to sell out
4. Buy mean cows, spavined horses, poor
oxen and cheap tools.
6. Feed poor hay and mouldy cornstalks
exclusively, in order to keep your Btock tame;
fiery cattle are terribly hard on old, rickety
wagons and plows.
6. Use the old hickory freely whenever
vour oxen need strength; it is cheaper than
nay or meal, and keeps the hair lively, and
pounds out all the grub.
7. Select such calves for stock as the
butchers shun—beauties of runts, thin in the
hams, and pot-bellied; but be sure and keep
their blood thin by scanty herbage ; animals
are safest to breed from that haven't strength
to herd.
8. Be cautious about manufacturing man
ure; it makes the fields look black and mourn
ful about planting time; besides it is a deal of
work to haul it.
9. Never waste time by setting out fruit
and shade trees; fruit ana leaves rotting a
round a place makes it unhealthy.
REMEDY FR BORREL.
A correspondent of the New York Farm
ers' Club, writing from Wisconsin asks: What
is the best method of ridding the soil of sour
grass, vinegar plant, or sorrel, as it is called
by those names —there are many farmers
troubled with it, and a great many ways and
plans, have been tried.
To which Solomon Robinson replies: Have
you tried dressing the land with caustic lime,
at the rate of thirty bushels of the powdered
lime, freshly slackened, to the acre, spread
upon the surface with wheat seed, and har
rowed in the same time? Have you tried
wood ashes, a pint upon each hill of corn or
potatoes? Have you tried deep fall plowing,
so asto turn up some of the strong clay of the
subsoil, and letting that pulverize in winter,
and then seeding it to timothy and clover in
the spring? Afterward, top-dress the grass
every antmnn with manure free from sorrel seed
or dress it with lime, ashes, or finely powder
ed clay—ti# debris of an old brick yard is
good—and if soma of these remedies won't
part your, land, you may as well emigrate

The American Publishers continue to reprint the

they are compelled to advance their terms as fol

These works will be printed on a greatly im
proved quality of paper, and while nearly all A
merican Periodicals areeitber advanced in price or
reduced in sire—and very generally both, we shall
continue to give faithful copies of all the matter
contained in the original editions.Hcnee, our pres
ent prices will be found as cheap, for the amount
of matter furnished, as those of any of the com
peting periodicals in the country.
Compared with the cost of the original editions,
which at the present premium on gold would be
about SIOO a year, our prices (sls) areexoeeding
ly low. Add to thiH the fact that we make our an
nual payments to the British Publishers for early
sheets and copyright in Gold—slcosting us at
this time nearly $2.50 in currency.—and we trust
that in the scale we have adopted we shall be enti
rely justified by our subscribers and the reading
public.
The interest of these Periodicals to American
readers is rather increased than diminished by the
articles they contain on ourgrcat Civil War, and
though sometimes tinged with prejudice they may
still, considering their great ability and the differ
ent stand-points from which they arewritten, ire
read and studied with advantage by the people of
this country of every creed and party.
