THINGS I HAVE SEEN
I. have seen a farmer wade up to his knees
winter after winter, through manure, in going
to his stable, when for years his garden has
been unproductive for the want of au article
so much in his way in the yard.
I have seen a farmer pass fifty times by a
breech in his fence and never stop to aright
it, always putting it off till another day, un
til the greater part of his crop is destroyed.
I have seen a farmer plowing around briars
until his field was so taken with them, that
he was compelled to abandon and give it up
to the neighbors around him as a blackberry
patch in common.
I have seen a farmer put up his stock fod
der in so careless a manner that the first
wind would blow down the stacks ; in which
condition they would remain until the fodder
was so spoiled that his half-starved cattle
would refuse to eat it, and he would wonder
why his cattle were so much poorer than his
neighbors
I have seen a farmer feed his horses in a
hollow tree with both ends open, and a hole
in the middle. " Oh," says he " the pigs
will get what Pals out." Yet strange to tell,
he never could account for his horses being
always so poor. I wonder.
I have seen a farmer, (and lie a good rough
carpenter,) who had not a door to his stables;
he would stop the entrance with rails laid
crosswise, leaving a hole at the bottom to
creep in and out when feeding. The labor
lost during the year in pulling down and
puttihg up this abominable substitute appli
ed to making of doors, would have furnished
him fur a life time. He is always " wonder
ing" how some folks have time to do such
things.
I have seen a farmer who took great care
of his fodder, but in feeding it to his cattle
would let in the hogs, or not separate them
from the cattle, and before they, could masti
cate half their allowance, the remainder was
!..,
rooted about, and so filthy that they must be
more than half-starved to eat it. He, too, is
one of the "wondering" class.
I have seen a farmer who seldom went
where his boys were plowing, and when he
did, it was the same thing; fur they would
merely skim the earth, cut and cover—and
" wonder."
I have seen a farmer, after all his labor
and expense in growing, cutting, stacking,
spreading, dew-rotting, and taking up his
hemp, throw hundreds of pounds in the cor
ners of the fence, to make room for another
crop; again to be destroyed, in part like the
preceding one.
I have seen a farmer richer than his neigh
bors, and to their great detriment, lose as
much time in borrowing and returning the
various implements of husbandry, as would
pay for them in iwo years, if time so spont
had been profitably employed.— Franklin
Farmer.
SHINGLING
A correspondent asks : " What will make
shingles last longer ?"
Twenty-three yearS ago I found I had a lot
of refuse shingles on hand, both sappy and
shakey, and I laid their on the back kitchen
and woodshed.
I have just examined them, and think they
will last at least seven years longer. The
roof has not leaked, to my knowledge.
I soaked these shingles in a very thin
white wash made with brine instead of clear
water. There has been nothing done to them
since, although I have no doubt that to have
washed or served a coat of dry slaked lime or
fine salt once in two or three years on them
would have been of great advantage to
them.
As I shingle differently from almost any
one else, I will give you my method, and my
reasons for it.
However wide the shingles may be, I do
not allow the nails to be put more than two
inches apart.
Reason.—if your shingles are wet or green,
and the wide ones are nailed at the edges,the
shingles must split, or one of the nails draw
when the shingle shrinks. If the shingle is
dry it must huff or crowd the nail out when it
swells. Thus your nails aro kept in constant
motion by every shrink or swell of the shin
gle, till they are pulled out, or the shingle
split.
Ido not want the nails drove quite in, or
so as to sink the head.
Beason.—The heads of the nails hold up
the butts of the next row of shingles, and give
the air a free circulation.
I lay my shingles in white-wash. I prefer
brine for making it. I line with red chalk.
I then white-wash the last course laid, down
to the line, and after the building is shingled
I white-wash the whole of the roof.
Reason.—To make the - shingles last twice
as long as they would without the white-wash,
and I consider it much better than just
white-washing the roof after shingling.
Carpenters often object to shingling in this
way as it is rather dirty work, and declare
they know it does not do any good—that it is
just as good to white-wash after shingling,
&c.
A common practice of the above sugges
tions would probably save thousands of dol
lars, in time, lumber and nails, annually.—
