farmer's Department
Work fcr June.
FARM.—Juno is emphatically a growing
month, both for vegetables ami weeds Flows,
culti*. ators, horse ami hand hoes will be called
into requisition now, to keen down weeds and
loosen the soil about growing plants. Some
late crops are jet to be put and in. failures i i
the cornfields need replanting. No spot on
the farm should lie waste. Plant or sow such
spots with some soiling crop, put in buckwheat
or turnips, anything rather than leave them
idle to grow pestiferous weeds. We do not
believe in the idea that soils need rest A
good routing of manure, deep plotting, unciclean
tillage are the best " rests" that exhausted
lands can have.
Towards the latter part of the month the
ringing of the scythe and the clatter of the
mowing machine will be heard in the meadows
and hay making w ill be the order of the day.
Barley may still be sown, if omitted till now.
Beans—Plant, any not already in, amoug
torn or by themselves.
Bees send out most of their sw arms it; June.
Watch them'closelv and have hives in readiness
to place over them as soon as they set'le in
clusters.
Beets—Sow Sugar and Mangel wurfzel, for
stock, unless all were put in last montlr.
Buckwheat—Sow, late, or even first of July,
that it may till its kernels in the cool weather
of Autura.
Cabbages—Plow and hoe early ones, Plant
among early potatoes and elsewhere for lute
use. Use tobacco dust, lime and ashes sprinkled
over the plants to keep away insects.
Carrots—Hoc and thin early. Much after
labor may be saved and a better crop secured
by taking the carrot turnip, and beet, patch in
hand before weeds get a start. Thill out
liberally. Four to six inches apart in the row
is near enough for carrots.
Corn—Replant, where inects, crow s or black
birds have taken the seed. General planting
may also be done now. Very good corn was
raised last year from grounds planted as late
as the 10th of June. Put in a good supply
for Summer feeding of cattle. Plant at inter
vails of two weeks. Flow and hoe former plan
tings.
Fences—Do not tempt caltlo with poor
ones.
Grain Fields—Select a seed path ar.d go
over it, removing cockle and other foul stuff.
Grass —Some fields will need cutting, accor
ding to latitude. Begin early, especially if
the weather is fine and you have no mowing
machine. Have a quantity of hay caps iu
readiness for wet weather, and all of your tools
and wagons or earls iu order.
Hoes should bo kept bright by constant use
during most of this month. Get the most
improved horse hoc and make hordes do the
work of many men. Push the hoeing, and
weeding so as to be in readiness for hay and
grain, now rapidly coming forward.
Manures—Dig cut a portion of the muck
swamp before haying, and have it dry for Fall
use. Mix lime or ashes with the muck if eon
venient. Keep cattle yards covered with
muek or loam and scrape lip the f:e-!i drop
pings each morning aud mix with compost
materials under cover.
Onions—lloe, weed, and thin early before
the weeds get a s f art. Much after labor will
thus bo saved.
Peas—Sow late civ; s, previously scalding to
destroy bugs unless they have left the seed.
Potatoes—Keep free from weeds but do
not use the plow among them after they com
mence blooming.
Poultry require little attention if running at
large, save feeding a little grain and collecting
egg. Where it is necessary to confine them
in buildings or yards it is always well to let
them out for a short time about sundown
Keep roots dusted with plast, r, charcoal or
muck, scraping up and barreling the contents
frequently for guano.
Pumpkins may yet be planted, either among
corn aud potatoes or by themselves. Wc have
raised splendid crops by sta king the seeds
with the thumb and linger, over the corn field
after a second hoeing even.
Sheep were probably washed and pcrhap,
sheared last month. If not wash, aud shear
in about ten days afterward.
Sorghum—Drill in a quantity, for soiling
purposes.
Stock of all Kinds—Seek to improve by
aaving the best calves, lambs, pigs, Ac. Why
not keep and raise cows that will give 24
quarts of milk per day and coniand $75 to SBO
or even SIOO, any day rather tlmn be at the
name cost of keeping those which give S to I*2
or 15 quarts of inferior milk per day, and
which will scarcely bring SSO in market.
Swine —Where there is an orchard or small
pasture accessible, hogs may properly have
the range of it, but by all means keep them
from the highways and dooryards. If shut
up. give them weeds, turf, and other green
stuff daily, keeping their pens and yards well
supplied with manure ausorbeiits.
Tools for hay and grain enttiic/, should ail
be procured and put in working order. N\ itli
a large quantity of hay and grain to cut, a
mowing machine will doubtless pay, besides,
securing it in better order.
Weeds —Keep them down while small if
you would save heavy labor afterwards, and
secure good crops.
ORCHARD ANP N I'RSI'RV. —If properly cared
for lust month,the orchard needs little attention
now, other than destroying insects, pinching
in, and Summer pruning. Weeds aud grass
should also be kept from growing about the
trunks, and fruit thinned out where it lias set
100 thickly.
Hoeing will be the chief business in the
nursery, assisted by the plow or cultiva
tor.
Budding may be performed in me eases of
early growth, particularly on plumq pears, uid
ro-es.
Budded Trees—Remove suckers, and tie
up buds inserted last year. Where buds have
become well established, and the new shoot is
growing in an upright position, old stocks may
be rounded.
Caterpillars—Destroy, any .suffered to live
till now.
fivergreens may =till be tran.-plauted with
cure, watering and mulching.
Grafts—Examine and loosen nay bandage*
ca'tin into newly grafted trees Replace
cement or grafting wax where it has pt-aled off.
Rub off suckers.
itivofs —Wage iriccs-n't war upon the
i" -vet tribe, no* that the gun of the * part sen n
f as destroyed or driven away \ our most efficient
#•"•1 *in the business, Gie small birds. Catcr
