TAKING THE HINT.
It is truly surprising to see how slow
some farmers are to take the hint. It seems
as if the old adage held true to this day, —
" When it rains jwrridge, their dish is always
bottom ujnoards." A wide awake farmer
will try and improve every opportunity for
self-culture and improvement of his farm ;
he does not set and doze all the long win
ter evenings, not he ; you will find him
poring over works relating to the farm,and
and the discoveries made in the best ap
plication of manure, and the results, and
he arranges in his mind what kind will be
l*est adapted to his soil—phosphate of lime
or guano—and his neighbor over the way
is forever pondering over the hints thrown
out by Nature, and yet he does not take
the hint. The frost destroys about one
half of his apple blossoms, and he prognos
ticates a small crop of apples ; instead of
that, the half that remains are larger and
finer flavored than usual, and the trees, in
stead of being exhausted, are ready for an
other crop—the next year—and yet, for
ever slow to take the hint, does not profit
by this lesson of Nature, and thin out his
fruit every bearing year. But the next
bearing year you will find his orchard over
loaded with fruit of small, inferior kind,
consequently uulit for market, and yet you
will hear him boast of his line crop of large
ones last year, and the good price he ob
tained by the barrel—hints are thrown
away on him—his dish is upside down.
A farmer raises the best kind of carrots
on a spot of ground where the wash of the
barn-yard run into it after every hard show
er. Did he take the hint and apply liquid
manure ? Not he—his dish was bottom
upwards. A shrewd farmer, whose dish is
kept right side up, goes in for the modern
improvements, he subsoils his land and
raises large crops, and his farm is looked
upon as a remarkably productive one, and
for years the farmer showed the utility and
thrift of deep handling, and yet not a
neighbor took the hint and left the old style
of skimming the surface ; that progressive
farmer sold his farm at a high figure. They
all supposed it was a wonderfully produc
tive farm ; and the purchaser was one of
those old fogy men who dare not leave the
beaten trail of his father before hint, and
the sequence was the old style of surface
scratching—and considers himself a chea
ted man, from the fact that his crops are
no better than his neighbors'. He was slow
indeed to take the hint, and his dish was
wrong side up all through life, —and why ?
Because he persistently closed his eyes to
all modern improvements, and considered
all the advertised machines to save labor
as so much gas and humbug, to get mon
ey from the greenhorns, but they couldn't
come it over him—his ej-e teeth were out.
A staunch old farmer complained that his
soil was too loose and light. Ashes were
suggested as worth trying. " Well, now
you mention it, I believe it will do good.
1 bought part of my farm from a man who
was a wonderful fellow to save up ashes,
and around his cabin it lay in heaps. I re
moved the house, and to this day I notice
that when the plow runs along that spot,
the ground turns up moist and close
grained." It is wonderful he was so slow
to take the hint. Nature may throw out
hints to some farmers all the way through
life, and yet they will stubbornly refuse to
listen to his teachings, and why ? because
their great grandfather did so they must do
likewise, instead of trying experimental
farming, and striving to make the labor of j
farming as light and cheerful as possible.
They go at it wrong end foremost, and so
continue through life. How absurd the
idea of a farmer running in debt for more
land than he can cultivate to advantage,
buying unnecessary articles, and doing
without those which are of vital impor
tance. Want of economy, neglecting the
payment of small accounts, till they ac- :
cumulate in such a manner as to afford him
a run of business. Independent of his farm
ing operations, keeping unnecessary ani
inals to devour his produce. One dog, if!
fed to the full, is as expensive as a pig,
without any return profit, unless we take j
into account his very little service of fright
ening the cattle, and making five times as j
breechy as if driven out quietly,—of his:
biting your neighbors' sheep and you hav- 1
ing to pay the cost, and making ill-feelings '
between neighbors for a lifetime ; keeping -
more horses than can be used to advantage, !
indicates had economy ; horses require i
more fodder, and of better quality, than ;
any of our domestic animals, hence, if not
properly employed, they are a draw-back |
on the farm.
The farmer who has any reason to ex
pect good luck, must take the hint and have :
a good pile of wood np to his door, surely
enough to last one year. See that the
fences are repaired, and the cattle are re-1
stricted within the limits assigned them, ;
lest they become ambitious and commence
a tillibustering expedition to acquire more
territory. To have your dish right side up, i
take the hints thrown out for you by Na
ture ; be prompt, let everything be done in
good season,keep interest money and small ,
debts paid up ; see that you have the Gen-1
exec Farmer sent to you promptly, which
will keep you posted up in all the various
improvements of the farm ; do not be i
afraid to try a new experiment which offers
to be of a labor saving nature, for at the \
present high price for farm labor, it is of!
deep importance to all farmers to study
economy. .1. L. HERSEV.
WHITE WASHING.
As some kinds of labor may be performed
at a season of the year when the weather
is not suitable for out-of-door occupation, it
may be well to look around and see what
may be necessary within doors. Among
these is the white-washiug of rooms. In
the first place, see if there are any cracks
in the plastering, or shrinking of wood
work from it. If so, mix a little calcined
plaster and quick lime together with wa
ter. a little at a time, and with an old case
knife, till up all the cracks with the paste.
Dip the brush in water and smooth down
the surface of the paste before you com
mence white-washing. If you have no cal
cined plaster at hand, put a" little plaster of
paris in a skillet, heat it over the fire so as
to make it appear like boiling, but do not j
keep it in that condition too long, and you '
will have the calcined plaster. This paste
is also excellent to fill up the cracks in
floors before painting or carpeting, as it
makes a smooth surface and helps keep out
the cold.
To PREPARE THE WHITEWASH. —SIack quick
lime in water a lew days before using it.
It will then be completely soluble, and free
from the coarse particles lhat exist when
first made. A still better article is Span
ish whiting, which may be bought at a
cheap rate. Mix a little calcined plaster,
say one-fourth as much as the whiting, and
it will look all the Utter. A little glue
will render the wash hard for walls "The
glue should be dissolved separately If
yon want to color the wash, any apothecary
or painter can tell you what, yon want \
wasU mixed with giue or calcined plaster
should be used immediately
How TO Am.r n Always have your
work finished behind yon, i. e., draw your
brush from your work, you will then leave
it smooth. Go over the second coat across
the first coat. This will take out the streaks, !
and leave it smooth when dry. A good
brush is absolutely necessary to make work
look well. Always soak the brush in mod
erately warm water before using it, and .
clean it thoroughly when your work is done.!
Avoid having your wash too thick. It is a
wash, and not a paste that you want. — i
When the water evaporates, a thin coating ;
of pure lime is left, which perfectly covers >
the old surface ; this soon absorbs carbonic
acid from the air, and remains unchanged |
till acted upon by smoke or dust.
To prepare a wash for tences and the j
outside walls of buildings, put one peck of
lime in a barrel, and pour on a little water
so as to drown the lime as it is called. Let
it swell and crack and gradually add the 1
water till it is of the right consistency,
then add four quarts of coarse salt dissolved
in water. This will render the coat hard,
and not so liable to wash off. A conven
ient way to white-wash slats for a fence
before they are nailed on, is to have a box
a little longer than the slats, fill it with the
wash, and with a pair of tongs dip them
into it. Keep the barrel covered when not
in use.
In patching a piece of plastering, al
ways cut out a square piece from the old
plaster, and sec that the mortar fills up the
■ space even with the old. We never like to
see an irregular blotch overhead, when it
! can be so easily avoided.— Maine Farmer.

ORCHARD CULTIVATION.
The cultivation of orchards is one of
those mooted questions which for a long
period h;ts disturbed the horticultural com
munity, and yet there would appear to be
: but one rational side to the question ; and
that is all orchards should be tilled. It is
! simply nonsense to expect that a tree will
1 produce and mature large quantities of
i fruit, for any considerable period, without
i manuring of some kind to replace the ele
; incuts which the fruit carries away. While
the cultivation of an orchard may not prove
remunerative, so far as the crop itsell is
concerned, it undoubtedly, if judiciously
! managed, improves the condition of the
trees, and consequently the quality of the
; fruit. We have known orchards bear fruit
J well, which for many years were permitted
to lie in grass, but eventually they gave
j out. and ceased to be productive. On the
I other hand, wc have known orchards which
! for thirty years have been cultivated as
| regularly as other portions of the farm,
| and the results have been the continued
health of the trees, and unless destroyed
: by frosts, a regular average annual yield.
| The stirring of the'soil appeared to impart
: new energy to the trees. They not only
' presented a healthy and vigorously appear
ance, but yielded handsome returns yearly.
The crops, it is true, may not have been
1 as luxuriant as on those parts of the farm
not so much shaded, but every bushel of
oats, corn, potatoes or turnips might prop
erly be set down as so much clear gain. It
is well to remember that deep plowing in
an orchard is not advisable. A good evi
dence of the value of cultivation is shown
by the fact, that when trees run to wood,
and yield little or no fruit, the luxuriant
; growth oithe wood can be readily checked,
and fruitfulness promoted, by putting the
orchard in grass for a couple of years. If,
at the end of that period, shallow plowing
is resorted to, the beneficial effects will
be apparent to the most casual observer.
—Cidturist.
BURN UP THE RUBBISH.
Fire is a great purifier. It is astonishing
what a change for the better can be made
in the garden and around the house By
I raking up and burning the rubbish. If any
of it is valuable for manure, let it be
wheeled to the compost heap, and then set
fire to the remainder. Go where we may,
rubbish of all kinds meets the eye. In the
! country, branches of trees are thrown into
the fence corners and there allowed to lie
and rot. Chips, old rails, stumps of trees
and decayed wood, in a variety of forms,are
found on almost every farm. They are un
sightly objects, but this is by no means
I their worst feature. They are the prolific
| source of fungus in all its multifarious
forms. And fungus is becoming the great
j est pest in American horticulture. The
; cracking of the pear, rotting of the grape,
and specks 011 apples, are all caused by
I fungus, while rust and mildew are only
| different names for different forms of fungus
i growth.
In the garden and orchard, everything
that will not rot and make manure in less
than a year should be at once gathered up
and burnt. The importance of doing this
I promptly is not generally understood. If
the branches of trees, potato tops, and
! woody matter of all kinds could be charred,
instead of bu nt, it would make excellent
manure. And in many instances this can
be done without much trouble. Old sods
from waste places in the garden can be ob
; tained to cover the heap, and they will
j themselves be converted into most useful
t fertilizer. Vegetables of all kinds delight
in such a manure. It is free from weeds,
acts quickly, and makes the soil light, warm
; and porous. A gardener who once uses
them will never again, if possible, be witb
i out a supply.
A Schoolmaster tells the following good
; one : I was teaching in a quiet country vil
lage. The second morning of my session I
I found leisure to note my surroundings,and
arnoug the scanty furniture 1 espied a three
legged stool. "Is that the dunce block ?"
1 asked a little girl of five. The dark eyes
sparkled, the curls nodded assent, and the
lips rippled out, " I guess so, the teacher
always sits on that." The stool was unoc
| cupied that term.
" MY son," said a fond parent to his ofl
spiiug, after having surveyed the wonders
of the London Crystal Palace. "My son,
if you can tell me which of all these works
of men pleased you the most, I will give
you half a crown." " The veal and ham
pies," responded young hopeful, " give me
the money."
MEN, in respect to ceremonies, modes
and laws, like a flock of sheep, will, in a
body, if the bell-wether can only be got to
leap over a pole, continue to leap carefully
over the same place when the pole has been
taken away
THE Kmperor of China, instead of pay
ing the doctor as we do when we are un
well, the instant lie is taken ill stops the
pay of his physicians, and does not renew
it until he is quite well again
~
A MAX on being told that a certain kind
of stove would save half the coal, said "I'll
take two of them and save it all."
The East Indies boast of a nutmeg
weighing four ounces, and not satisfied is
now asking for "a grater."
