JTGRINTUURAL. Winter Management of Sheep. The chief object, when wintering sheep el any kind, is to keep store animals from growing poor, and those designed for mut ton next spring, improving a little during the foddering season. It is not to be ex pected that the choicest quality of mutton will be made by the majority of those who feed sheep in winter, although it can be and often is done. 'The most profitable way to make mutton is to feed grain moderately during the winter, aud " finish up " the fat tening process by allowing the animals to graze for ten or fifteen days. Sheep of all kinds dislike wet apartments, as much as a cat dislikes a wet floor. There is nothing worse for sheep than exposure to cold, wot storms, or to the drippiugs of cold water through the leaky roofs of their sheds, or foul, wet and uncomfortable places to stand or lie down in. Sheep will endure intense cold with little inconven ience, so long as their fleeces are kept dry and they have a dry yard. When they are required to stand in the snow all day, and make it their bed at night, and be covered with a crust of snow and ice attached to their wool for several successive days—aU of which Is common with multitudes of good flocks all over the country—they can not thrive, even >vhen well fed. It will never do to keep sheep of any kind in such a manner. When a farmer has no shelters and no straw for his sheep, it will be far more eco nomical to build a skeleton frame with rails, and cover the top with a portion of their hay, and fill the sides between two courses of rails with hay and manure, thai, to allow the sheep to be exposed to dliv ing storms. Another consideration is, suitable feed ing racks. Sheep should always be fed in good racks, whether they are furnished with roots, grain unthrashed, hay or straw. They will always waste more or less feed, when fed on the ground, even when there is clean snow beneath their feet. But when the snow has disappeared, and the fodder must be scattered in the manure yard or on the ground, quite one-half of it will be soiled by their running over it, and they will endure extreme hunger before they will eat the soiled feed. An excellent farmer communicated to us the dimensions of a superior sheep rack of his own make, well adapted to straw, corn stalks, unthrashed grain, roots of any kiud, or thrashed grain. It is portable, quickly and cheaply made, and sheep cau waste no feed. We herewith give a description of it. It is what is called a box rack, two and a half feet wide, two feet nine inches high, and of indefinite length. At the corners ire pieces of scantling two inches square, to which the side boards are nailed. The bottom boards should be twelve inches wide for old sheep For lambs, ten inches wide. If the boards are rough they should l.e planed, to prevent the slivers pullieg out the wool. The top board may be five or six inches wide. Short strips of boards five or six inches wide, are then nailed across the opening from tiie top, to the bot tom board. Every sheep will occupy from ten to twelve inches space. A trough is formed of the bottom boards, so that grain, roots, or hay will lay within reach of the sheep. A loose partition made of narrow pieces of boards occupies the inside of the rack, inclining at an angle of about forty five degrees, from the bottom of one side to the top of the opposite side. The sheep thrust their heads between the outside slats, and draw the fodder down between the slats of this partition. When ranking such racks use hard wood for the corner posts, and fence nails, as fence nails are stronger. If annealed, they will not break when the racks are moved from place to place. Tla- best way to anneal cut nails is to I lit them in the lire when there is a bed of coals, and let them remain until the fire cues out. This will make them tougher than most wrought nails. If the boards lie hard wood, holes must be bored for the nails, or it will be difficult to drive them. If the corner posts be of soft wood, it will be necessary to employ longer nails for securing the side-boards to them. It is better to make them in sections, 12 to 14 feet long, so that they will not be so heavy to move. Another important tiling for sheep is wa ter. They need it just as much as neat cat tle and horses, although they will suffer far less inconvenience, when deprived of it, than horses or neat cattle. No farmer should think that his animals are well cared for when they do not have constant and convenient access to pure water. Another thing which is of great import ance, though usually neglected, is access to a tub of salt at all times. All herbi vorous animals need it more than carnivor ous, and it is better to allow them to take what their feed requires, separately, than to mingle salt with their feed. Winiering Bees. if it were not for the losses that occur in the winter season, honey bees would soon increase so rapidly, that they would die of starvation, not being able to gather food enough in the summer to last even during the fall months. How to winter bees best in a cold cli mate, is one <,f the questions that has never been decided, and probably never will he ; as different apiarians have different meth ods of wintering theui ; but a few princi ples may be laid down that all will admit t<> he correct, as follows : Ist. To keep them in art even tempera ture. cool but not cold enough to eßuse the dampness of hives to congeal to frost. 2d To keep them as quiet as possible, and if placed in a room, or winter bee house, to be in complete darkness. 3d To afford them a free ventilation of pure air under all circumstances. These rules, we contend, cannot be con troverted ; and the question is, how are the conditions to be carried out in the most successful manner ? To keep them quiet, it is necessary to keep bees either in total darkness, or approximating to darkness, with the temperature of the atmosphere so cool as not to cause them to desire to leave their hives. Darkness will not keep bees quiet, unless they are kept cool at the same time-; and bee-keepers who place their bees in dark winter bee-houses, frequently have to open the doors, and throw in snow or ice, when the weather becomes quite mild in winter, in order to lower the temperature of the air within, and calm the aroused bees. Ventilation is as essentiai to bees as pure air is to men. A dozen hives of bees placed in a close room, ten or twelve feet square, would destroy the purity of the air in a few days—so much so, that a lighted candle would go out on being placed there in, provided that no pure air can enter such room All rooms, or winter bee-houses, should therefore lie ventilated in some man ner, without admitting light. Bees that are kept all winter upon their stands, in tin- open air, require no other ventilation than what can in- afforded un der their hives. The plan some bee-keep ers have of making holes near the tops of hives, as a method of ventilation, we con sider erroneous in practice, as we have wintered bees successfully 30 years, with out any such ventilation, the hives stand ing out upon their summer stands, but pro tected by stuffing hay or straw around them, so as to*keep the bees sufficiently warm, and by raising the hives about One sixteenth of an inch from their stands, suf ficient pure air is admitted to keep the bees healthy. Our hives are set upon stands near a close board fence, made a few inches high er than the tops of the hives, when resting upon stands only six inches above a plat form of boards resting upon the ground, hives have an open space between each of about six inches only, and the hay (rowen hay is best) is easily packed arouud all sides, except in front, against which we set pieces of wide boards, reaching from the ground to the tops of the hives, close to gether, and a narrow strip over the cracks, so as to darken the passages of the hives, and also as a protection to the front sides of the hives. On the tops of the hives, we also place a layer of hay, and cover all with boards, so laid as to keep the hay dry, and carry off the rains and melted snows of winter with out wetting the hives. On this system, the bees are kept suffi ciently dark, and have 110 desire to leave their hives, except in very mild, sunny weather : and when we see the bees try ing to escape from their hives, we throw down the boards set up before them, and let them come out, when there is 110 snow upon the ground, and when there is snow we bank up the hives with it in front, be fore many bees have come out, and replace the boards, which so cools the bees that they are quieted thereby. CULTIVATION OF EIOE Rice was first introduced into this coun try by Sir William Berkely, of Virginia, in 1047, who received a half bushel of the seed, from which he is said to have raised the first year sixteen bushels of excellent rice, and thus the cultivation of it was com menced and carried on. It has been raised to some extent in Virginia ever since, but the amount has been very small compared with that raised in some other Southern States,aud especially South Carolina,which has produced 75 per cent, of the rice crop of all the States. The production of the whole country in 1860 was 215,313,098 lbs. The rice from South Carolina and Georgia is the finest raised in any part of the world. At the great Industrial Exhibition at Lon don, in 1851, the rice from South Carolina, exhibited by F. J. Heriot, received a prize medal and was pronounced by the jury to be "magnificent in size,color and clearness," and the American was regarded as much the finest in quality of any on exhibition. The mode of cultivation adopted on the rice plantations where the overflowing of the land is resorted to, is as follows : The land selected is that which is above the reach of tide or salt water, aud which is not liable to the heavy freshets that flood the country on the upper part of the rivers, as the irrigation must be completely under control. The land is prepared by the erec tion of dykes and digging of ditches, and divided into as many separate fields as can be separately attended,in the various opera tions required, in a single da"y, each field capable of being shut off from all the rest. The fields are ploughed in the fall or early winter,and overflowed when the weather is warm. In March the land is drained and kept dry, and when in a proper state to work it is harrowed or hoed, and trenches for the seed are madel2 or 15 inches apart, and running at right angles with the drains or ditches. The seed is sown in the trench es in April, and covered lightly with soil, and then the water is let in upon it through the gates and suffered to stand from four to six days, until the grain begins to swell. The water is let in a second time when the blade is just above the ground, and allow ed to remain about the same length of time, when it is thoroughly drained. In about five or six weeks the first hoeing takes place, and a second about ten later, when 'the long water," as it is called, is let 011 for two weeks, deep for four days and gradualh' diminishing until it is drain ed again. When the field becomes dry it is hoed again On the appearance of a joint it has another hoeing and the "joint water" is put on, which remains until the grain is matured, a period it may be of two months. A lew dajs before cutting, the water is drawn off for the last time. The rice is cut with a sickle, and after threshing another important operation is to be gone through, the removal of the husk or shell which closely envelopes the kernel, and to which it adheres with great tenacity. This was formerly accomplished by braying it in a mortar, and the same course is now pur sued to some extent, but mills are construc ted in which it is partially ground, without destroying the kernel altogether. The whole is then run through a graduated cylindrical sieve,similar to the screens by which coal is assorted, and the hulled rice comes out in three separate parcels or grades, first the flour and fine pieces which have been abraded by milling, then the "middling," aud after that the "prime" rice, which con sists of kernels nearly or quite whole. The prime rice is subjected to still another pro cess, which is called polishing or brushing, and which is effected by running'it through a rapidly revolving wire screen, lined in part with shreds of sheepskin. This re moves the flour adhering to the surface ot the kernels, and the rice is then ready for the market.— Jour, of Com. How to make both ends Meet John Johnson says that he has noticed that those farmers who have most difficulty to make both end.-' meet, always plough most and keep most stock Now these men take the true plan to keep themselves always poor, because their stock and crops are al ways poor and bring little. It is a good profit to raise three hundred bushels of wheat from ten acres ; but when it takes thirty acres to raise that amount, it is rais ed at a loss. So it is with cattle and sheep. You will see the thinking farmer making four-year-old steers worth from S6O to SBO each, and his neighbors, at the same age, not worth over $25 or S4O. If his land is exhausted—and a great many farms are— then he should plough no more than he can thoroughly manure. Seed with clover and grass, and let it rest for even two years,and that field will not only pay well for tillage but will furnish manure(if lightly managed) to make another field of the same richness also. It is bad policy, when a field is once highly manured, to continue cropping it with grain until the manure is used up. — The latter end of that land will be worse than the first. But let that land lay in clo ver, even one year, but two is better, after it is manured, and 111011 it will stand per haps six good crops before it requires ma nuring ; if clay subsoil it certainly will. PICK OVER YOUR APPLES.- \pples should be occasionally "pickep over;" all rotten or partially decayed ones taken away ; all damp ones wiped dry, and laid again care fully into the barrel or bin. A little care at this time will often save your fruit. Look at your apples at once. Clothinoi. gO L OM ON ft SON, Have made additions to their STOCK OF WINTER CLOTHING FOR Men and Boys' wear.
