Calendar of Operations for Jane, 1861
Farm.—There is scarcely a more important
agricultural mouth in the whole year, than
It terminates the period in which most seeds
can be sown, and introduces the indispensable
work of cultivation. Many early sown or plant- j
ed crops that have failed, may yet be replac
ed ; if the whole available area be not already
j occupied with growing crops, now is the time
' to put in quick growing com, teaus, or other
staples, 'ioc early plautcd corn, potatoes,and
roofs of all kinds,should receive immediate and
careful attention, to free them from weeds,
loosen the soil, top-dress with guano, ashes, or
plaster, and thus seenre their rapid growth.—
\ igorous growth in tlio earlier stages of a
plant, is most likely to be followed by gener
ous fruiting.
Cultivation of the soil may appear tamo and
ncinterestlng work in these exciting times,and
the temptation will be great to leave peaceful
fields for the field of conflict, but remember
that feeding the country is as necessary, as
fighting her battles, and that full garrisons,
cop only be maintained by full garuers.
Barly will usually yield a fair crop, if sown
at this season, although earlier sowing is pre
ferable It scccieds best on a gravelly soil,and
may well occupy ground devoted to hoed crops
last year. Sow two and a half to three bush- '
els per acre, and harrow in thoroughly.
Barns and Sheds will soon be needed to re- i
ceivo the first fruits of the mowing grounds.— :
Put platforms, bay-ways, etc., in order; clean ;
out all rubbish, and repair floors and entranced
ways, if needed. Examine grain bins, wool :
closets, and cattle stalls, and extermiuute any
vermin.
Beans—Plant, where corn has failed,if seed
of King Philip, or other early variety, can not
bo had. They may also be put in on soil too
light for corn. They do not requiro heavy
manuring; too strong soil gives great growth j
of vine, without a corresponding yield. If the
war continues long, beans will be in great de
mand; they furnish much nutriment in a small j
Space. Plant them nbuudantly.
Beets—Mangel Wurzel and Sugar varieties,
EOWU will have plenty of time to mature for
winter feeding. A great saving of grain and
hay will be effected, by having a good supply
of these and other roots, to feed out in Wiuttr
and Spring.
Butter, if properly made during this month, ;
may be laid down and kept throughout the !
6rason, or until the best prices can be had
CJeanliners and thorough working are the two
essentia! points to be observed. Keep the milk
room cool, and free from dust, insects, und of
fensive smells. Churning the miik with the
cream, after the latter Las raisen, saves the
work of skimmiog, and some claim that more
butter fs obtained in tbismanner. Experiment
to learn if this be true; nolo also tlie quality
of the butter. In sending butter to market,
be careful to have the cask or pail look neat
and inviting, and plainly marked. New tubs
should be well scalded with butternaiik before
packing, to remove the taste of the wood.
Cabbages—Plant oat for late crops. Hoe i
nnd cultivate between the rows of those pre- j
vionsly set, at least once a week—the oftcner
•the better. Set plants between the rows cf
early potatoes, which are to be dug, the first
of July. Examine cfl?u to destroy cut worms
and other insects.
Carrels—ln favorabla seasons largo crops
have been obtained, when sown the first week
in Juue. Keep the rows well hoed, and thin
to six inches apart. They may be chilled in ;
between rows of ODIOUS after the second or
third hoeing of the latter. If thia be don?,,
leave every third space vacant, to give rooai
lor curing the onions when pulled.
Cheese—Study to improve the quality,rath
er than to increase the quantity produced.—
" V> h;te-oak," cheeses are always a drug in j
market, while those of first class are always iu !
demand at good prices.
Cattle—Young cattle, especially calves of'
the present season, need attention to keep
them growing. Allow them the best pasture. |
Grain Fields will whiten to the harvest in ;
Southern localities. Wheat or rye should Le
cut, as soon es the berry is advanced enough j
to bear moderate pressure of the thnm'o mil,
without breaking, or just after it leaves the
" milk " stage. Examine the fields for the
earliest and best portions, to be left to ripen ;
fully for seed.
Haying will begin, in the earlier sections. —
Cut grass or clover for hay, just as the bloom
is passing away, and iho seed commences to
form. If heft later, ranch of liieiiourishing part
of the stalk is hardened into, woody fiber.—
Provide a supply of hay caps, t* be used this
season. They wiP enable you to cure much
of the hay in the cock, which will give a bet
ter quality of fo'id:r. A mowing machine and
ahcrse pitchfork wiii pay on all |farms, where
thcr is much meadow.
Manure—Turn every scurca to account, as
recommended iu previous numbers. Throw
weeds from the garden, etc., into the pig *tye,
and supply the swine with plenty of materia!,
to woik over at their leisure.
Peas—Sow or plant, if there be vacant
ground. They make excellent'food for swine,
when fed green with the straw, or ripened and
ground with oats, or when fed alone, cooked
or soaked. Hogs will grow and partly fatten
well on pea-. The last few weeks'feeding should
be on corn, to harden the pork.
Potatoes—Keep well hoed until blossoming.
Hill them only moderately. Try top-dressing
with ashes, to drive away insects, and to pre
vent rotting.
Poultry—Accustom them to lav in their ap
propriate places, by confining them in the
poultry yard until afternoon. Allow none to
set after tue middle of this month. Give plenty
of food, particularly to the growing broods, to
lit them for an early market. Keep their npart
raents clean, aud use the droppings, mixed with
plaster, ia the garden. They are also an ex
cellent addition to liquid manure.
Sorghum—Drill cr sow broadcast for cut
ting and feeding green, or to be cured for win
ter fodder. Cultivate that already planted,the
same as com.
Swine—Keep them growing with wash from
the dairy, mixed with ground feed. Allow
them the range of the orchard, to destroy
grubs and worms in unsound fruit. Suffer none
•to run ia the highway, A good clover pasture
will afford them excellent feed. They should be
supplied with pure water.
lanners Bark—Peel from hemlock and onk,
as soon as it will ron freely, and pile it so as
to protect from rain.
Tools, particularly for haying arid harvest
ing, should all be in readiness before the season
of use.
Weeds grow rapidly, if left during this'
month. Keep the cultivator ajd horse And
hand h'oes buy— citau tillage pays best
ittfactllmteotts.

" To be. or not to lie— hat is the question !
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to sutler
The siings and arrows of outrageous opposition,
Or by taking up arms against a sea ot printing ink,
• And opposing, end them."
rpiiil proprietor of the Argus takes o'casion in adver
| JL tising his Bindery to indulge in an uncalled for fling
i about a " sort of a concern," which is hoping " to delude
the public." As I have opened a Bindery on my own ac
j count, the inference is that if the public bring their
i binding to me, they are in no danger of being defrauded.
For two years I have worked for Mr. PARSONS, and he
i has taken great pains t > satisfy the public I was the " best
Binder in America," as the columns of the Argu* wil
j testify. Has he been all that time " deluding the pub
! lie?" If 1 have been engaged in a fraud, he lias been tli
> principal. But I refer to my work during that time a
1 evidence that there lias been no fraud practivi <l.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
A COMPOUND BEMEDY, designed to be tbe rao6tef
(ectnal Alltmnre that can be made. It is a con
ci ntrated extract of Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with
other mi Iml ames nt still ((renter alterative power a* to
afford an effective antidote lor the discuses harsapanlla is
reputed to cure. It is believed that such a remedy is
wanted by thus? who suffer from Strumous complaints,
and that oue which will accomplish their cure most prove
of immense service to this laiac class of our afflicted lel
low-cifizens. How completely this compound w ill do it
has been pro Ten by experiment on many of the worst
cases to be loond ot the following complaints :
SCROFULA ANO SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS, ERUPTIONS
AMI Kki PTIVK DISEASES, ULCKKS, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES,
TUMORS, SALT RHEUM. SCALD HEAD, SYPHILIS AKD SV
PHILITIC AFFECTIONS. MERCURIAL DISEASE. DROPSY.NEU
RALGIA OK TIC DOULOUREUX, DKBIEITY, DYSPEPSIA ani>
INDIGESTION. ERYSIPELAS, RO.-k OR ST. ANTHONY'S Fire,
and indeed the whole class ot complaints arising from
IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD.
This compound will be found a great promoter of
health, when taken In the spring, to expel the fool hu
mors wuich tester in the blood at that season of the rear.
By the timely expulsion of there many rankling disor
ders are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can. by tbe aid
of this remedy, spare themselves from the endurance ot
eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system
will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not assisted to
do this through the natural channels of the body by an
alterative medicine. Cleanse out Ibe vitiated blood
whenever you tind its impurities bursting through the
skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when Jon
find it is obstructed arid sluggish in the reins ; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your tcelings will tell you when.
Even where no particular disorder is felt people enjoy
belter health, and live longer, for cleansing toe blood.
Keep the tilood healthy, and all is well; hot with this
pabulum of life disordered, there can he no lasting health.
Sooner or later something must go wrong, and tbe greu
machinery of life is disordered or overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, tbe reputation of
accomplishing these ends. Rut the world has been egre
piously deceived by preparations of it, partly because
the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for
it. hut more because many preparations, pretending to
lie concentrated extracts of it, contain hut little ot tlie
virtue of Sarsaparilla. or anything else.
During late years the public have been misled by large
r bottles, pretending to give a quart nt Extract of Sarsa
parilla lor one uollar. Most of these have been frauds
upon the sick. for they not only contain little, if any
Sarsaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever.
Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has lollowed
the use of the various extracts of Sarsaparilla wbieli
liooil the market, until the name itself is justly de
! spiscd, and has become synonymous with imposition and
' cheat. Slid we call this compoun 1 Ssrsaparilla. and in
. tend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name
from the load of obloquy whidh rests nuou it. And we
think we have ground for believing it lias virtues which
are irresistible by tbe ordinary run of the diseases it is
intended to cure. In order to secure their complete
, eradication Irom the system, the remedy should lie judi
• ! ciously* taken according to directions on the bottle.
