NOTES AND SUGGESTIONS POE THE MONTH
June is the mouth of most rapid growth
and the Maize fields,which has looked yellow
and poor during May, under the hot suns of
this month unfold their leaves like armies
with banners, and so other crops, if they
are in open and well-worked soils, push for
ward into leaf, and blossom, and fruit. We
have work enough to finish planting,to keep
down the weeds, and to work the surface,
so that the air may always have free access
to the roots of the crops. The grass has
made a great growth in many localities dur
ing the past month, and where mowing
ground has been well prepared for irriga
tion, the second heavy crop of hay is by
this time ready for the scythe. The for
wardness of the season has enabled farm
ers to get well ahead with much of their
work, and there is less excuse than usual
for lack of thoroughness of culture. The
powerful rains which may have hindered
farm work somewhat, are very likely to be j
followed by dry weather in June, for which
deep tillage and frequently working the soil,
are the only remedies.
Barns and Sheds. —Sweep thoroughly
and put in order for hay and other crops.
Where a small quantity of hay or straw re
mains in the bottom of the mow, pitch it
up aloft, where it may be used in the for
mer part of the foddering season. Remove
manure wherever it is in contact with wood
work, and see that driving storms do not
wet the frame timbers. Clean and paint j
eaves troughs, and remove limbs of trees
within a yard of the sides or roofs of build
iogs.
Barn-yard. —Turn all water from the roofs
<>t buildings or other sources away from the j
barn-yard. If the ground be wet, make a
good under-drain entirely around, and exca
vate the middle, puddling it with clay pro
tected by cobble stones, so as to retain all \
the liquid manure.
Barley. —Send a careful man and pull all
dock, winter cress, wild mustard, etc., from
the growing grain. If land is in good heart!
where winter wheat has failed, barley may
be sowed even in June,and will yield a fair {
crop.
Beans. —Where a hill of Indian corn has \
failed, plant three hills of early beans. If'
rows be far apart, a row of beans is often ,
planted between them at the last dressing
with a horse hoe.
Beets. —Mash lumps in the soil with a
wooden mallet, a few hours after a shower
—this will be almost equal to a hoeing—
pull up all weeds near the young plants.—
Good crops may be raised even when plant
ed in June, i( the soil and cultivation be
good.
Butter,- -Give cows an abundance of
sweet grass and clean water, and access to
salt ; see that boys and dogs do not worry
them ; milk regularly with clean hands ;
keep milk in clean and sweet vessels, and
in a cool, pure apartment; churn often ;
work the butter well with anything but the
bare hands ; use only the purest and best
salt ; pack in clean jars or tubs ; keep cool,
and the butter will be equal to prime " Or
ange County."
Cahhage. —Put out the plants in good sea
son ; apply a heavy dressing of horse ma
nure, well worked into the soil ; hoe morn
ings while the dew is on, working over the
earth a few inches deep ; and we will al
most guarantee large, hard heads. Insects
may make the result doubtful.
Carrots. —Pull all weeds near the young
plants when the soil is wet. Carrots require
clean cultivation. Where the seed failed to
come up, put in turnips or onions.
Corn. —Keep cultivators and horse hoes
in operation until the corn becomes large
enough to shade the ground. Hot and dry
weather is the best time to subdue grass
and weeds.
Cattle. —See that all the cattle have ac
cess to pure water. Where they drink at
a pond, large poles or sticks of timber
should keep them from going into the wa
ter to stand, its they usually dung immedi
ately alter drinking. Do not feed too many
animals on the same ground. One good
cow, well fed, will yield more milk than
two cows on short pasture.
Calves.— Keep calves in clean and dry
yards or pens, and mow a little grass daily
for them. June is one of the best months
to commence improvements in neat cattle.
M here calves are allowed to suck, put a
little wheat flour in one end of a small
trough and salt in the other end, where
calves can reach it. They soon eat meal.
Cellars. —Clean house and barn cellars ;
wash the windows ; whitewash the walls,
and sprinkle quicklime where there is any
dampness or impurity.
Dairy. —Look out for improvements in
selecting cows for the dairy as well as mak
ing butter and cheese. Make a horse or
sheep do the churning.
Flax. —See that water does not stand at
all on any part of the field. Pull large
weeds when the plants arc small.
Grain Fields. —Keep fences in good re
pair around them, and confine turkeys and
all other fowls that persist on going on the
grass, as they will break down and destroy
more than they are worth.
(irats Seed. —fields inay bo plowed and
sowed with grass seed this month, without
any kind of grain. Still it is bettor to sow
two or three pocks of rye to the acre, to
partially shade the young grass.
llanxng.—Commence haying in good time.
W here there is much grass to cut. some of
it must bo mowed before it is really tit ;
otherwise a good proportion will become
too ripe. Grass will make the best hay if
cut when the stalks are full grown and the
heads are in full bloom. When there are
woods among the grass, cut it before their
seeds are formed. Grass is much less liable
to be injured by hot and dry weather if cut
when quite green.
Hoove. — \\ atcli all animals that food on
red clover, and prevent this dangerous dis
ease which comes from over-feeding.
Imjjlemeiiln. —During rainy and leisure
days examine mowers and reapers to see if
they are in running order. Take them
apart ; remove gum and dirt from the jour
nals and boxes ; oil alresh, and screw up
all nuts and tighten loose rivets. The effi
ciency of tools and implements depends al
most altogether on their condition.
Manure. —Prepare compost fur winter
grain and top-dressing fur grass land. Col
lect barn} ard manures into covered quar
ters, or protect as much as practicable from
alternate rain and sunshine. Barnyard ma
nure should be forked over to facilitate rot
ting ; and where it is so deep as to fire
lang, water or liquid from some part of the
yard, should be pumped upon it.
Millet. —Where the soil is moderately fer
tile, sow millet at any time previous to the
2oth of the month in our latitude. From 8
to 12 quarts per acre is sufficient unless
the seed be large. Millet grows rapidly in
mellow soil and bears drouth well
Oat*. Mow of Canada thistles, and any
other weeds that appear above the oats.
Ibis so checks their growth so that they
injure the crop but little.
Oxen. —Feed workers a few quarts of
meal every day, whether they labor or not,
as it will give them strength, make them
endure the heat better and increase their
market value more than the worth of the
meal. Never allow ill-natured drivers to
worry and beat oxen while at work. Pro
vide such teamsters with a soft leather
lash and limber stock,with which they can
not strike a hard blow.
Pastures. —Do not feed off permanent past
ures too closely in the former part of the
season, unless there is a large proportion
of Kentucky blue grass, which is better to
be kept short. If grass gets the start of
stock, and begins to head out, it will make
much better pasture to mow oft' all the
seed stems, as animals will not relish them ;
and when seed is allowed to form, a large
portion of the vital energies of the plant,
which are exhausted in producing the seed
and stems, would make excellent grass
Potatoes. —Cultivate thoroughly and hoe
well before the tops begin to fall over, and
sprinkle a handful of wood ashes around
the stems of every hill. Never allow care
less laborers to strike their hoes in the
ground near the hills, as roots that would
bear tubers, may be cut oft'. Potatoes do
not need root pruning. If weeds close to
the hills are too large to be covered with
earth, pull them.
Poultry. —To gratify the secretiveness of
hens, make nests where they cannot be seen
by other fowls, when they are laying or sit
ting. If nests be too deep, eggs will rest
on each other, which should never occur.
Peas. —Sow a part of an acre the last of
the mouth for seed. If sown soon enough
to mature before early frost, they will be
free from bugs.
Poultry. —Feed them ; let them out of the
yard before sunset daily ; supply them with
a box of sharp gravel, where there is none
in the soil. Whole grain should be soaked
at least twenty hours for them ; and if
ground, it will go much farther.
Ruta-Bagas.—- Do not fail to raise a few
square rods of them for stock next winter.
Pulverize the soil thoroughly, manure it
well, and sow the seed in drills two feet
apart, as soon as the ground is dry enough
to work after a good shower. Then a crust
of earth will not prevent them from coming
up.
Sorghum —When the plants are young
they are very tender. They need hoeing
and dressing with care. Careless men and
boys will often retard their growth by cut
ting oft' the roots, and burying the leaves.
If the ends of the leaves be covered with
earth the growth will be checked.
Weeds. —Wage an unceasing warfare
against weeds and bushes this month. Mow
them close to the ground ; cut them with
hoes, and pull them. It injures Canada
thistles, ox-eye daisies,and other perennials
materially to cut them close to the ground
just before they blossom. We tell work
men in our employ that a sharp, steel hoe
is poisonous to weeds, when it cuts them
oft' below the surface of the ground.
Wagons. —Keep them well protected from
rains and sunshine, as the continued influ
eice of these injures vehicles more than
the ordinary use. Rain will hurt them but
little if they are kept in the shade. A lib
eral coat of linseed oil on the wheels will
often save dollars for resetting the tire.
Wool. —Keep the fioor cleau while shear
ing ; tie it tip neatly ; arrange the fleeces
to show advantageously ; and, keep it in a
clean apartment where mice or rats will not
carry chaff and straw among it.
Roofs. —Examine roofs of out-buildings
when it rains. Leaky places will usually
be found where a shingle has been split di
rectly over a joint of the next course below.
In such a case another shingle may be driv
en beneath the split one.
Rye. —Spring rye, two bushels per acre,
may be sowed during this month, to be cut
for horse-feed before early frosts.
Rotation of Crops. —Raise crops that are
best adapted to the soil, rather than at
tempt to adapt the soil to the crops. Every
farmer should adopt some kind of a rota
tion, if he has not already done so, as this
is one of the fundamental principles of sci
entific agriculture.
Sheep. —Let sheep have access to salt in
a water-tight tub, or trough. When salted
only occasionally, they consume too much
for their health. Protect from cold storms
for some weeks after shearing. Apply a
little pine tar to their noses to repel the fly.
Separate bucks from ewes, or fetter their
forelegs, about five or six inches apart,
that they may be impotent to harm. Des
[ ignate the age and character of each sheep
by significant marks on the rumps or
shoulders. A figure (1, 2or 3, etc.) on the
shoulder may signify a ewe and her age,
and one on the rump, a wether and its age.
Swine. — Pigs designed for pork next fall
should be separated from the sows as soon
as they will eat readily. Keep them in
moderately close quarters ; as, when run
ning about in large enclosures, they will
expend a great deal of material, without
adding proportionately to their growth.
There is nothing better than milk, oat and
barley meal and wheat flour unbolted, to
make pigs grow. It is sometimes more
economical to feed wheat flour than oat
meal to pigs. Where pigs are chiefly val
uable as manure makers, see that they have
enough muck, sods, weeds, etc., to work
over.
Work. —Keep in advance rather than be
hind your work. Perform every operation
in good time and in a thorough manner.
Wood.— Split and pile whatever firewood
is exposed to the weather, so that it may
dry out before it becomes watei -soaked.
If 'heat.— Cut off all heads of rye, cockle,
chess, and pull gromwell (incorrectly call
ed pigeon-weed), from the growing crop.
THINNING CORN IN THE HILLS.
Thinning should always be done as soon
as practicable after the corn has come up.
This is usually done at the first hoeing, but
should be delayed till danger from the grub,
or cut-worm, is over. Unless careful labor
ers are employed, many hills will be neg
lected. Superfluous stalks may be remov
ed at any convenient time, even in lowry
weather,when the soil is to wet to be work
ed with cultivators or hoes. The best man
ner of doing this is to cut them oil' close to
the ground, with a sharp knife, and drop
them near the standing cym. The stalks
should be removed from the middle of the
hill, that the remaining plants may stand
as far from each other as possible ; the
farther they stand apart the larger the ears
will grow. When the stalks are pulled up,
they will often loosen and break the roots
of those that are loft, but, if cut ofl" as di
rected, the roots soon die. If care be not
exercised in dropping only a proper num
ber qt kernels in a bill, much labor will be
required to thin out a large field. Still it
is better to do so than to allow five or six
stalks to grow where there should be only
three, or at most four. There will be more
and better grain on four stalks than a larger
number.
Ex-1 ostmaster General Reagan is a
heavy, stout, and somewhat lethargic man
but, in conversation, shows a great deal of
ability. He desired particularly to know
what policy would be instituted in the way
of reconstruction, believing that a humane
one would bo the easiest in order to con
ciliate and hold the South."
The best dowry to advance the marriage
of a younge lady is to have in her counte
nance mildness, in her speech wisdom and
in her behavior modesty.
