SCHOOL VACATION.
v-rewetl to school, the birds are singing,
How rapidly the days ore winging;
Come, lit us quickly host, nw.y,
And hove our gambols while we may
La la la la, la la la la, la la la la la la la.
Vacation, haste, or we'll lie weary,
Tho* school is never dull and dreary ;
Yet, we'd away to greenest fielde,
Where nature full abundance yields.
La la la la, Ac.
Yes, soon, with joy, will we. returning,
Show how we love the path- of learning;
When Autumn's rich sud mvllow voice
Makes every heart and tongue rejoice.
La la, Ac.
And when, in halls of study meeting,
We'll have a happy, joyous meeting,
With minds refreshed, and feelings gay.
We'll hail the welcome, welcome day.

AGRICULTURAL NOTES FOB MA\.
The cares and labors of the cultivators of
the soil during the month of May are as LU- j
merons as they are arduous. Everything in j
the field, in the garden, and in the stock yard. j
demands daily attention. Domestic animals. ;
in many localities, will be turned into the j
field to graze. Let us drop a word of cau
tion about early pastures. Keep all stock off j
such fields until the grass has attained a
height of four or five inches. It is ruinous to
voung timothy, young orchard grass and red
clover, when first starting in the spring, to
allow animals to crop it off close as soon as
the young and tender leaves are an inch long.
On the contrary, if the field is covered with
a stiffsod of Kentucky blue grass or Long
Island blue grass, both of which grow rapid
ly, it is better to keep the grass fed off, as
stock will not relish it after the leaves have
grown six or more inches long. W here
these kinds of grass are not kept dowu by
early grazing, animals are liable to leave
small plots of pasture over the entire field,
which will sometimes mature the seed before
they will feed on it. Much judgment should
be exercised in the management ot pasture
fields at the commencement of the growing
season, in order to derive all tne profit the
land is capable of yielding in the form of
pasture.
Let every hoof be kept off 'he meadows.
Better buy bay to feed till June than to re
sort to that unwise practice of allowing sheep
or cattle to graze, for a few days, on the
meadow, because hay is scarce. Animals of
all kinds may be maintained for several weets
on meal and cut straw about as econonomi
cally as they can be kept on prime bay. The
farmer who pastures his meadows in the for
mer part of the growing season may always
except the lack fodder in the spring of the
year.
Ewes that have lambs and cows that are
rearing calves should be allowed to graze, at
first, not more than an hour every day, until
their stomachs have become accustomed to
the green food. A few pounds of grass for a
horse that has been supplied with dry food
for many rnonhts past will exert an excellent
influence in promoting his health.
The stables and other apartments of all do
mestic animals should be thoroughly ventila
ted. At this season of the year, horse stalls
sometimes become extremely offensive. The
sediment between the planks will emit foul
odors even when the floor has been scraped
clean with a hoe and swept. Give the floor
a thorough scrubbing, and the nir in a foul
stable will soon be purified. An inside door
made of slats should be provided for every
stable to keep out foul and to admit pure air.
Horses are often injured seriously by. being
confined, at this season of the year, in close,
half-ventilated stables. The entire atmos
phere of stables is often so thoroughly
charged with ammonia, that the eyes fill with
tears and the nostrils need to he closed. Tj
is no wonder that horses, when confined in
such an atmosphere, arc blind without any
cause, or contract other diseases to which
this noble animal is heir. There is but little
dauger that horses will contract cold when
they arc not uncommonly warm. Therefore,
when they are not heated, throw open the
windows and stable door and let in the pure
air.
During the j seut month an incessant j
warfare should be waged agaiust the numer- I
ous insects, borer and worms that will com |
mence their ravages. The earth should be
removed from the bodies of peach and apple
trees to the depth of two or three inches, and
the dead bark scraped off until the green
bark is laid bare. If borers are at work,
their hole- caa.be discovered readily by re
moving me old bark just at or a little below
the .surface of the ground. During this
month, and, in some localities, nest month,
the borers in apple aDd peach trees will be
quite small and still a work in the bark, and
may be destroyed by simply thrusting a knite
blade into them. It they have entered the
wood they must be cut out. Perhaps, in
some instances, they have been boring for two
years. I hey must be cut out, or they will
destroy the tree. A small joiner's gouge and
ma.let are the most convenient instruments
for dislodging borers after they have entered
the wood iu inch or more. Every tree should
be examined at least once a week during the
mouth ol May. Borers are often found
where their presence is not suspected. It is
impossible to punch borers to death with a
crooked wire after they have entered the
wood, as they seldom bore in one direction
more than an inch or two. The correct way
is to examine trees often and keep them out.
No other way will prove so effectual and
cheap.
Procure at the druggists a few ounces of
wh.te hellebore, powdered; keep it in a pep
per hex, and go out every day among the !
currant and gooseberry bushes; turn up the j
branches aud scatter a small quantity over
the leaves and branches wherever the worms
appear. he currant and gooseberry worms J
commence devouring the tender leaves while
the former are so minute that they can
scarcely ne discovered with the naked eye.
Many people cannot see them until they have
attained a length of one-eight of an inch.
oy may be seen on the very edges and un
derage of the leaves. The least perceptible
s.oin o hellebore, it it only touches the
worms, will lay them out as effectually as a
ose ot poison without injury to the bushes.
armers and fruit-growers should make it a
point to destroy every noxious insect on their
pttmses. Insects are becoming so numerous
a -iu destructive that a vigilant care must be
evert'.j e j over almost every growing crop
tiom the time the seed is planted till the fruit
is gathered.
I>o Dot be in too great haste to put in the
seed for a crop of corn. A few rows for
'•arly table corn may be planted in the gar
en at onc e, and even this may be overtaken
oy that planted later, bet field corn should
iiotbe planted until the ground is in acomforta
ly warm state to receive it. This season
will be a late one at the commencement, but
ou a warm weather continue after it fairly
10, no fear need be entertained in regard
to the grow* o this crop. Even if it .hooid
not be planted until the U t of Jane it will
bare time enough to grow. Nothing i gain
ed by too early planting.
Look well after the gardens. Watch the
sprouting of the weeds as well as the Tegeta
bles, and keep the former down if vou would
bhave the Utter grow. The garden'is a great
care
week. If JO" wouW have 4 & ood productive
garden, now is the time to make it, by apply
ing well seasoned manure and plenty of labor
with the spade.—Veto York Observer.
To DESTROY THE STRAWBERRY GREB.—A
writer in the Circular says.—"On grounda
that are infested by this insect, and perhaps
by others, make numerous piles of dry brush,
and other material, anil then watching the
season when the beetles begin to rise, and, in
the early part of the evening, fire several of
the brush-heaps, and the beetle and all other
insects that chance to be on the wing, being
dazzled and bewildered by the light, fly into
the fire and are consumed. The next even
ing. fire other heaps, and so on. The top of
a small tree should be stuck in the ground in
the middle of the pile, against the branches
ol which the beetles will strike and fall di
rectly into the Gre. If farmers and cultiva
tors could be persuaded to practice soiue such
course annually, it would be found to be very
effectual in diminishing the numbers of these
depredating insects, and largely increasing
all kind of crops.— The Gardener's Monthly.
