NOTES AND SUGGESTIONS EOS THE MONTH.
With the advent of April, all animated
nature merges from the long reign of win
ter and commences life anew. In this lati
tude the tender grass comes springing up
everywhere ; in secluded nooks of the fields
and OD the sunny hillside flowers are open
ing their petals to catch the sunshine. The
song of the blue bird—"There'll be no more
winter"—admonishes us that it is time to
prepare for field operations, and all the
forces of the farm have already commen
ced, or are just beginning the labors of the
season.
Animals. —April is one of the most criti
cal periods of the year with our domestic
animals,especially with the females. Have
a care beforehand that none suffer from
lack of a sufficiency and variety of feed.
Let roots Jbe fed at least in small quantities
wherever * practicable. Use the card and
brush freely 011 horses and neat stock, and
see to it that the active fermentation which
the warm weather will cause in the manure
does not affect the stock unfavorably.—
Mares, cows, ewes and sows, are all liable
to slink their young at this time of the year,
unless they receive constant care, not once
a week, but several times a day. It is an
erroneous notion that the cause abortion are
very obscure. It is unnatural for animals
to bring forth prematurely, and the reason
for their doing so is often plain. Some
times it is caused by lack of sufficient
nourishment, water and feed, sometimes
by ergot, and perhaps smut, or poisonous
fungi in the hay ; sometimes by over-exer
tion, by slipping down, or by some act of
violence, such as a kick in the flank with a
big boot, a severe hooking, or worrying, or
something else. Mares and cows frequent
ly slink their young in April for want of
water and sometimes from being compelled
to drink impure water, especially that im
pregnated with manure—either upon the
surface, or from wells in the barn-yard into
which the leachings run. Feed whole grain
to po animals, except sheep having good
teeth. See that enough coarse grain is j
ground to last teams and stock uitilpas-l
ture time, so that it will not be necessary i
to go to mill when teams should be plow- j
ing. As the warm weather comes on, and
animals begin to shed their hair, they will
consume as much feed as in the winter if it
be good.
Barley. —lf the soil be in a good state,
sow as soon as the ground will do to plow, j
If possible, obtain seed free from oats,
buckwheat and spring wheat, as all such
grain is a nuisance when the barley is mal
ted. In the best regions for barley, good
farmers are so careful to keep the crop free
from oats that they will not allow unground
oats to be fed to their teams wnile they are
preparing the ground or putting in the seed. ;
Always keep the two-rowed,four-rowed, and
six-rowed barley seperated, because,during
the malting process, different kinds will not
malt in the same time. Old barley should
never be mingled with new when sold, as
the two will not malt alike, and a loss must
be sustained by the brewers to the farmer's
discredit.
Birds. —Whatever havoc birds may make
among the fruits in summer, during April
and May they live upon insects, and the j
number they destroy is immense. Happy |
is he who has his garden full of them.— i
\Y reus and bluebirds especially should be '
courted and furnished with houses of ap
propriate sizes ; for wrens, boxes 4x4 with
an inch hole for entrance two inches above
the floor ; for the bluebirds, fixfi with Ij inch
hole. Colonize the different birds in sepa-1
rate places, or the wrens are quarrelsome.
Cattle. —Cows that have not yet calved
should be allowed to stand several hours
daily in large sunny yards. If the calves
be removed from milch cows as soon as
dropped, the cow is less worried than if
they are taken away after she has become
attached to them. New milch cows ought
to have roots or some green succulent fed
at this season ; what is called "slops" sup
plies the place of more natural and better
things. This is one of the worst months
for caked bag, garget, milk fever, etc.;
watch for the first symptoms and check the
disease il possible. Beeves— Increase the
amount of meal fed to fattening bullocks. :
Do not require them to eat too much cut
straw with it. Coarse meal will digest
more readily if soaked over night. During
April, bullocks three years >ld should re
ceive from ten to fifteen pounds of fine corn
meal mingled with wet straw during the
day. Meal ted at this season of the year
will prepare them to lay on fat and flesh
when they are turned to grass. This is
equally true of fattening sheep designed
for early mutton. Working oxen. —See that
the yokes arc right and bows are not so
short as to choke them Feed working cat
tle well and handle them carefully,and they
will grow fat every day and be worth more
for beef next summer than they may be
bought for now. Oxen will endure the
heat nearly as well as horses if led as well
and not abused and worried by bad driving.
Always allow them at least two hours du
ring the middle of the day for rest and
chewing the cud—time for which is quite
as necessary as time to feed.
Carrots. —May be sown as early as the
ground can be put in good order. The
Long Orange is the favorite field variety,
though the White Belgian is said to be the
most productive ; and if so, it is better for
feeding, but not for market. Sow 2 pounds
of seed to the acre by hand, and 1 to 1J by
machine.
Cellars. —Do not neglect to clean them
out thoroughly, removing all decaying veg
etables, wood, etc. \\ here cabbage or p<-
tatocs have lain and decayed in part, it is
well to sprinkle dry ashes or fresh loam,
removing it after a day or two. White
wash every part, except the floor, which
may well be supplied with lie.
Draining. — Ihis is the best season to see
where draining is needed, and to appreci
ate its advantages as shown in land well
underdrained, though the maximum effect
may not be seen for a year or two. If there
is any time to spare from other and more
important work, push forward the drains.
Hound tiles with collars are the best, but
not easy to get.
lowls. Collect eggs of all kinds before
evening, lest they be injured during the
nights. 1 lace those designed for setting
in a pail of bran or oats, little end down,
to keep the yolk from the side and adher
ing to the shell. Hens and other female
birds turn over their eggs frequently, both
before and during the period of their incub
ation. Mark choice eggs with red chalk
or pencil.
Cram fields.-- As soon as the frost is out,
and the ground is settled, it is well to go
over the land and pick oil' the stones that
have been heaved up. On much land the
grain is benefited by rolling, especially
when it has been thrown out by the frost.
On other soils this is injurious. Top dres
sing of ashes, ashes and plaster, superpho
sphat, guano,amoniacal salts or similar sub
stance which can be sowed by hand,usuallv
produce good results, especially if the
grain is winter killed iu spots or does not
look thrifty. Coarse weeds may often be
pulled easily or cut up with a "spud" at
this time.
Hogs. —Secure a good stock of pigs or
shoats for manure makers. Give good care
to brood sows.
Horses. —While they are shedding their
coats the skin makes heavy demands on
the organs of nutrition ; it is peculiarly
sensitive to cold, to wet and drafts, and
horses are liable to take cold. They should,
therefore, be well fed, and groomed, and
blanketed when exposed, quite as well as
in midwinter. Be careful about letting
horses that are shod get loose in the lots
together. They are playful, and in their
play often kick one another severely. Hors
es intended for the market should never be
used before the plow nor for hard labor.—
Neither should those used for fast work on
the road, nor showy carriage horses ; it
makes them stiff and* awkward and will se
riously affect their value.
Irrigation. —Tons of good fertilizing mat
ter are carried off in small streams, which
might be conducted over our farms, espe
cially grass lands with great profit. Turn
streams of muddy water from the highway
on fields so that it will spread over a large
surface Fine earth," horse-droppings, etc ,
washed from the beaten track will increase
the quantity of grass quite as much as a
top-dressing of manure, and the water,
aside from what is suspended or dissolved
in it, is of great benefit.
Implements. —Purchase no new kinds but
those that have been well tested. Look
out for such as will require the least force
to work them. If possible, procure those
made near home, that in case of a break
down they may be repaired at the least ex
pense. If a wheel of a reaper or mower
were to break, and one were obliged to
send four or five hundred miles to the fac
tory for a new one, he would probably sus
tain •ninch loss before it could bo put in run
ning order again. Protect all tools and
implements from rain and sunshine.
Improvement. —This should be the watch
word ol farmers during the entire year.—
Improve the fertility of the soil by a better
system of management, and by making
more manure. Improve stock by disposing
of inferior animals, substituting better
ones ; and improve the man himself by
reading good agricultural papers, and in
every way gaining and communicating
useful knowledge.
Manure. —lf possible spread a good dres
sing of barn-yard manure upon corn ground
unless you have a short supply, and it is
fine enough to be applied in the hill. When
barn-yard manure is hauled to the field sev
eral weeks previous to being plowed under,
put it in close heaps to prevent ioss by
evaporation, and if possible shovel a little
soil over it. Spread no faster than it can
be plowed in. Make a compost rich in ma
nure. when fine muck can be obtained, for
manuring Indian corn in the hill. Where
dung heaps heat, devise some means for
pumping the liquid over it, which leaches
from it.
Meadows. —Keep all kinds of animals off
meadows in the Spring if you would have
a good crop of hay. Better pay double
price for hay than to allow animals to graze
on meadows. M tke a light, long-handled
mallet, and knock to pieces all the drop
pings of animals on meadows and pastures
Pick up small stones in heaps, arid haul ofl'
as soon as the soil will bear up a team. If
ashes, leached or unleached, gypsum or
lime, or ground bone is to be sowed,the soon
er it is done the better
Oats. —Sow as early as practicable.—
Drill iu both ways using half the desired
quantity each time. Sow not less thart
three bushels per acre, with all the light
kernels and foul seeds removed.
Pastures. —Never allow animals to graze
on newly-seeded pastures before the grass
has a good start. The feet of heavy ani
mals destroy much grass. At first let cat
tle graze about two hours, then yard them.
On new land where the blue grass starts
soon, feed it off early in the spring, and
keep it short ; few animals like it after
seed-stalks appear.
Blowing —Never plow heavy soils when
wet, because as soon as the surplus water
has settled away they will be as compact
as before. Plow dry portions of a field
first, and aim to plow heavy soils when
they are just moist enough to pulverize well.
Never plow with a dull share or point ; and
grind every part of the plow until the
earth will slip off readily. Ifearth adheres,
a plow runs harder, holds ha.der, and does
its work imperfectly.
Potatoes. —ll it lias not been done already,
select the best for seed. As the largest
eyes are best for seed, save the seed ends
of those that are used for cooking, and
start them in small flower pots, or oyster
kegs, placed on the shelf in the kitchen.
They cat. he turned out of the pots and
transplanted in drills as soon as danger
from frost is passed. Better pay double
price for ripe seed of fair size selected when
dug, than to plant potatoes that have not
been raised and assorted with care.
Rye. —Sow spring rye as soon as the soil
has settled and is dry enough to plow. The
straw will be needed next fall for binding
corn stalks, and it is considered better than
other straw to cut lor horses. The grain
makes the best kind of meal for teams.—
Seed can be obtained in most seed stores.
Boots. —Every farmer ought to raise
roots enough to feed his horses and neat
j stock, including calves, from a peck to half
a bushel a day, on an average, and have
| enough fir his sheep besides. Calculate to
! get, with good cultivation, 800 to 1,000
j bushels to the acre. Begin in April topre
! pare the soil, manuring well, plowing deep
: iy. Harrow thoroughly. Sow parsnips
! and carrots iu April and mangels in May,
rutabagas in June and .sweet turnips in
June or July. Select a few of the best
beets, turnips, carrots and parsnips before
they are fed out, and transplant them for
raising seed. It is quite as important to
raise and select seed for roots with care as
it is for a crop of cereal grain.
Sheep. —Keep their yard dry and well
littered, and protect them front cold and
wet storms. Sheep dislike wet yards and
leaky roofs as much as a cat hates a wet
floor. Give them a few hemlock or pine
boughs to browse at least twice a week,
even when they receive a daily allowance
ot roots. Keep a watchful eye on earlv
lambs. When chilled, warm them tho
roughly by the fire. When they cannot
stand, put them into a tub of tepid water
and rub them with a soft cloth til' they
revive, then rub dry and feed with warm
sweet milk, and put the dam in a comforta
ble place. It is an erroneous notion that
chilled lambs must not be near the lire.
Sunshine.- -Every animal should have the
benefit of the sunshine as well as light.
Such as have been kept in close quarters
all winter should be allowed to go out and
bask in the sunshine every day. Sunshine
in the spring is a great luxury for all kinds
of animals, and promotes health and thrift.
Wheat. —The varieties of spring wheat
that appear to take the lead at present are
the Scotch Fife, Golden Drop the Canada
i Club and the China Tea. In different local*
; ities one kind appears succeed better than
another. When none of these kinds can be
| obtained in the country, get them of deal
i ers in seed in the large cities. Prepare
the seed and drill in, or sow in good season.
It sowed early, unless the land is very wet,
the young plants will root deeper, tiller
more, and the yield of grain will be larger.
