nuniiS FOB FARMERS. J. The farmer ought to rise early, to see that others do so, and that both his exam ple be follwed, and his orders obeyed. 2 The whole farm should be regularly inspected, and not only every field exam ined, but every beast seen at least once a ln a considerable farm, itisof the ut most consequences tohave hands specially appropriated for each of the most impor tant department of labor, for there is often a great loss of time, where persons are frequently changing their employments; and the work is not executed so well. 4 Every means should be thought of to diminish labor, or to increase its power. For instance, by proper arrangement five horses may do as much labor as six per form, according to the usual mode of em ploying them. 5. A farmer ought never to engage in a work, whether of ordinary practice, or in tended improvemont,exceptafter the most careful inquiries; but when begun, he ought to proceed in it with much atten tion and perseverance, until he has given it a fair trial. G. It is a main object in management, not to attempt too much, and never to be gin a work, without a probability of being able to finish it in due season. 7. Every farmer should have a book for inserting all those useful hints, which are. so frequently occurring in con versatlon.in books, in papers, and gathered in the course of his reading, or in a practical management of his farm. — Sinclair. Butter Making in Winter. —Some families are quite successful in making butter in the winter season. Mr. Scott, of Vermont, believes that it may be made about as profitable when the cows are feu with tiio right kind of hay as when they nut in pasture. But there arc so many who think differently, who “ don’t have no luck in winter,” that milk enough to make many tons of butter is wasted every winter. A correspondent of the Mural Amu'icin, whose wife has made butter evevv winter for ten yeftrs, and who has himself done all the clfurnirig in a com mon dash churn, seldom occupying more than ton or fifteen minutes in the opera tion, condenses the secret of his success, so far as the management of the milk and cream is concerned,' into the following pithy sentences: Cows should be kept warm and clean, and in addition to plenty of sweet, early cut hay, milch cows should be treated with warm slops and bran mashes, varied by roots and meal. They should have plenty of pure air aud exercise, and be sailed regularly once a week. Timetables and cows must bo well cleaned before milk ing, and the treatmeutof the cows be ruled by patience and gentleness. The milk, whenatrained, should be brought to ascal(l - heat and set in a warm place, where it will not freeze. The cream should he taken off before the milk thickens, and be kept in as cool a place as it can be without freezing. Cream managed in this way will he very thick, and when put in the churn needs diluting, which should be done by adding warm milk till, when well mixed, the temperature of the cream is such that a drop applied to the forehead will feel neither cold nor warm. Frost—Take Came of Youk House Plants. —” The hoary monarch will vis it us before long and ids rigorous breath will prove destructive of delicate plants and -unsheltered gardens. Those who take pride in choice flowers should see that they are not exposed on any >clear, cold night. The best way is to transplant into pots which are to be preserved through the winter. Geraniums should beatonce taken up aud after they are well rooted in pots, which process will goon better with, the plants exposed to tho light and air, they can be removed to a warm celler for the winter. Here with very little atten tion, they will keep nicely until spring. Fusions, the most beautiful house plants we have, can be made to blossom all win ter by keeping them in a very even, warm temperature and giving them suf ficient light.” Lathering Fruit.— Fruit trees very often sustain great injury from being roughly shaken by those engaged ingath ering the fruit. Apples and pears ripe enough to be gathered require to have the trees shaken considerably before they will fall off, and in doing this much un ripe fruit will also fall, and the limbs and twigs are often injured by the process.— On low trees, dwarf pears, &0., the fruit can be picked very easily, and the follow ing is a good test of the ripeness of pears, apples, &0., that are picked for eating.— Take hold of the fruit, and instead of pul ling it down, lift up gently on the same, and if sufficiently ripe to be eaten it will immediately yield from, the tree—if it does not come off it should not be picked or eaten. —Rural New Yorker. Cei.erv. —This is best preserved out of doors in trenches a foot wide, and ns deep as the plants are tall. The celery is pack ed closely in the trench in an upright po sition, and as cold weather comes on, the tops are to be gradually covered with straw, leaves or other protection, adding to Ihe covering as the weather becomes colder, until it amounts to about a foot in thickness. To be more readily accessi ble. a portion may be put in a box in the 'Cellar, and packed in moist sand to keep from wilting. This will not do if the cel b.i be warm. 116?” Frost, even if very slight, injures squashes and pumpkins. Carrots are damaged seriously by a frost that freezes the ground. Beets and rutabagas will bear but little more, losing especially in sweetness. Cabbages, celery and turnips may be exposed when water will freeze one eighth of an inch thick, and not to be injured unless they are thawed out rapidly by the warm sun. If®” - Fall plowing should not be neg lected from pressure of other work, but hire an extra hand or two and keep all the teams going. This year’s corn ground intended for barley and oats next spring, should be plowed as early as possible. — The stocks of corn should be set m straight rows, as far apart as possible, and the ground plowed between them, flushing after corn is husked, and stocks removed. Is the currant a berry? asks “an unconvinced inquirer.” Yes, and so is the gooseberry, whortleberry, grape, cran berry, tomato, egg fruit, etc,, and so are not the raspberry, blackberry, strawber ry, mulberry. A berry isany fleshy fruit resulting from the ripening of a single pistil. The raspberry, etc., are collections of fruit from numerous and distinct pis tils. Oranges andlemonsareberrieswith very thick rinds. —American Agricultur al. XiST" Corn should be husked as soon as cured, and not left in the shock, subject to the attacks of vermin and birds, and to damage by rain, causing mildew. Corn houses should be of open slats and rat proof. Before corn is put in bins, soft ears should be thoroughly sorted out, and all not sound should be,cured by spread ing thinly on the floor of a hot dry loft. Cows ought to be yarded at night at all seasons, but at no time is it more impor tant than now. The nights are long, the cows need some extra feed, which is best given in racks or in the troughs, or in tin proper stalls, and the vendure they crop consists largely of old leaves which are lull of inorganic or ash constituents, hence their dung is of more value than usual Keep up the flow of milk by feed ing pumpkins (without the seeds), roots, soft corn, etc. 3®rg (©oofcs. c.
