Calendar of Operations for January, 1860.
Farm.—This i.* the season for the thought
crop. The seed may be obtained front the
past )ear's experience of yourself and others,
and books nnd papers will furnish a still wider
choice. New thoughts are both capital and
tools. Thinking men command Let
the home department receive due attention.—
Settle outstanding accounts aud.asfar as prac
ticable, start square with the year. Improve
the farm on paper. Lay drains and build walls
with pen and ink, plant fields with pencil and
ruler. Get the whole farm and its future op- 1
erations by heart, and thus be ready for the
coming campaign. Then enlurge'good farming
into good " neighboring." Start the farmers!
club, urge forward neighborhood improvements
better roads, superior school-houses, and what
ever the public need. These labors will fill
the leisure of Winter plcasuraldy and with pro
lit. For other operations the calendar of last
month needs but few additions.
Barns and stables are, should be in part,
factories for working up Summer produce into
stock for the market aud manure for the farm.
Make the most of the raw material. Suffer
no waste. Cut coarse fodder and mix with
meal, shorts, ect. Save liquid manure by using
muck, sawdust or other absorbents.
Breeding Animals. —Keep thriving, but do
not overfeed. Good shelter is humane and
profitable.
Cattle if half starved will eat almost anything
but pay for nothing. Feed regularly, giving
roots with dry food. Give water at least three
times a day. Keep them warm, provide plenty
of beddkig. Use the card frequently. Break
steers. Handle heifers to prepare them for
milking.
Cellars.—Watch against frost. Cover ex
posed bins of roots or apples with straw. Shut
the eat in at night—rats will be frightened
awaj if not caught.
Corn. —Shell for market. First, select the
best for seed, if neglected until now. Grind
and rook that fed to swine.
Farmers' Clubs should be established in
every school district. Invite your neighbors
to join. Two heads are better than one, aud
all the heads in a neigborhood set to thinking
will bring out much of, value.
Fencing Stuff—Cut and prepare while the
weather favors. Make gates, and hole, or pin
posts under cover, stormy days.
Grain —Secur from dampness; expel rats
and mice.
Hemlock and Oak Bark—Market early pre
pared for the tannery.
Hemp and Flax—Break and prepare for
market.
Hogs—Keep them in comfortable pens.—
Supply with leaves, straw, dry muck, sawdust
etc., for bedding and manure. Clean out the
pens often. Give cooked food, and an occa
sional treat of barn sweepings,cut hay, etc ,for
a change. Turn iu the male for Spring pigs,
if not already done.
Horses.—Treat them as they deserve, with
warm, light stables, plenty ot bedding, and a
liberal allowance of grain. Give carrots fre
quently. Keep well shod and sharpened, and
blanketed when standing out. Handle aud
halter-break eolts.
Ice Houses—Build above ground conveni
ent to the dwelling, if not provided. Secure
a full supply of ice. Provide for drainage and
ventilation.
Implements—Repair broken and look for
new. Examine advertisements and catalogues
of dealers. Keep wood-work painted, and
coat iron with tallow and rosin to protect from
rust. Oil running of hcr.-e powers, fanning
mills, etc.
Luni'uer—Cut surplus forest growth for
boards, posts, ties, cabinet work, etc., if it can
rot be done in September, which is prefera
ble. Take out old trees and give the young
growth a chance.
Manure.—Make it from every source ; sta
ble, pen privy, muck-bed, and kitchen-drain.—
In each of these are the elements of grain,
grass, fat cattle and swine, full pockets, and
prosperity.
Marketing produce is conveniently done at
this season. Keep an eye on market reports.
Sell when a paying "price is offered. Rs care
ful to have a full understanding in making con
tracts, and do a cash business as far as practi
cable.
Plowing when the gronnd admits, benefits
heavy soils ? the frost will crumble them. In
sects and noxious weeds will also be destroy
ed.
Poultry will pay in marketable currency for
warm quarters, and good care. Feed with
cooked grain, potatoes, and refuse meat until
they sing. Allow free access to water. Pro
vide them with gravel, also pounded oyster
shells or lime, and ashes to wallow in.
Roads—Allow none to remain obstructed
by suow drifts. Kcepslueiee ways and bridges
in order.
Salt stock at least once a week. A little
on cat feed will give a relish, beucliting cattle
and saving fodder.
Sheep —Turn the buck with the ewes. Keep
separate from other stock,allowing warm sheds
for shelter. Give a few roots daily, and on
allowance of grain to breeding ewes.
Wood should be secured, cut, and seasoned
under shelter. Cut decaying and fallen trees.
Provide a year's supply in advance.
ORCHARD AND NURSERY. —Trees are now tak
ing their Winter rest, and need but little atten
tion except to preserve tliein from injury by
cattle browsing the tender shoots, or rubbing
and barking the trunks. In Southern lati
tudes,grounds may be prepared and trees plant
ed out. Where immediate effect is desired,
large trees may be removed in Winter by dig
ging them up with a large mass of frozen
earth attached,and resetting in holes previous
ly prepared ; but a good, perinancut growth
can not thus be secured. In a short time such
trees lose vitality. It is better to transplant
younger trees and wait a few years.
Keep all standing water from the grounds
by surface drains now, and by thorough uu
.derdraining as soon as the season will allow.
Fruning at this season is not advisable.—
The wounds are liable to crack from hard
frosts. In mild latitudes it may answer, but
late Summer is better.
Examine trunks and branches for caterpil
lar and other eggs, and clear off rough bark
nnd scale. Protect against rabbits by tying
thick tarred paper around the trunk. I leap
np a mound of snow and trample it firm about
the tree to keep off mice, especially near walls
and hedges.
Cions may be cut at any time when free
from frost, and but buried in sand in the cellar
for Spring use.
Provide a full supply of implements, stakes,
labels, tallies, etc , for another season.
I.aspberries—Examine those covered last
tnoutb, and replace the earth If washed away
