Agricultural Notes for May- To the farmer and gardener, the month of May, in our latitude, is the busiest season of the entire year.— Domestic animals of all kinds —from tin- l.irood of chickens to carriage hor ses — require the personal attention of the vigilant husbandman. During the latter part of this month, animals in some of the grazing districts, will be turned from dry feed to grass.— With all such stock, this is a critical period ; a id much care should be ex ercised to feed every one with a boun tiful supply of dry feed, be ore it is allowed to eat grass. When milch cows are about to be turned to grass, each one should receive a liberal feed ing of meal and cut fodder. Other wise, grass will operate as a purga tive, to the injury of the animal. Many cows will come in this month. If they have, heretofore, been troub led with the garget, or inflamed ud der, better keep them on hay, for the most of the time, until their calves are a week or more old, before they are .-.flowed to graze. A preventive of the garget, is far superior to any remedy, alter the disease has once appeared. Milch cows require a great deal of care at this period of the year,lest they fall a prey to some ot the numerous diseases incident to new milch cows. Selecting heifer calves for cows should not be neglected. In many parts of the country, where most of the calves are knocked in the head, before they are one day old,"there are a great many inferior milkers ; and so long as the injudicious practice of killing all the calves is continued,far mers must milk miserable cows. The true way to secure a prime cow is, to select the call" with reference to the milking qualities of the future cow. Brood mares that will foal this month, or the next, may perform a j vast amount of labor, if they be trea-1 ted with care and fed well. Such an-! itnalß should never be tied in a stall during the day, nor at night. A large 1 box-stall should be provided,in which a mare can turn around with freedom. ; If a mare with foal be thin in flesh, let her feed consist of equal parts of wheat flour unbolted and oat or Indian corn meal. Some farmers feed rye | flour chiefly to their horses, which I makes excellent feed. But, in some ! instances, there is a large quantity of ergot—or smut—among the grain, 1 which will often cause a mare to slink, 1 when she is confined to such feed, for i a few days. In localities where the soil consists of muck, or fine alluvial deposit, free from gravel, a few bushels of fine gravel should be hauled expressly for domestic fowls, as small gravel stones are eminently essential to the thrift of gallinaceous fowls, turkeys, geese and ducks. Young chickens and young turkeys frequently droop and die, simply because they have no gravel stones for macerating their food. Gravel stones in a fowl's giz zard subserve the purpose of teeth.— When they have access to gravel, j they swallow more or less, many' times a day. Were gravel not essen tial to perfect digestion, fowls would not swallow it. Thousands of domes tic fowls appear to be ill ; and their owners do not understand that they need gravel. During this month, preparations should be made for a crop of turnips and carrots. If barn yard manure is scarce, procure a barrel or two of the raw hone superphosphate. Turnips and carrots require a ricli soil. It is folly to attempt to grow a crop of roots of any kind, even on mellow ground, if the soil has not been made rich by some kind of fertilizing mate rial. A few hundred pounds of raw bone superphosphate, properly ap plied,will produce a bountiful crop of roots. In those sections of country where the soil is of a heavy calcare ous character, half an acre or more of mellow ground may be selected, in almost every field, where Indian corn is to he planted, which may be appro priated to the production of roots for feeding horses and milch cows next winter. Every farmer should raise at least fourth of an acre of sorghum.— Stake off a plot in the corn ground,for tliis crop : and about the first of Juue, pulverize the surface of the ground with a horse hoe, or cultivator, for the purpose of exterminating all the noxious weeds. Then put in the seed. The young plants will then get the st irt of weeds ; and but little labor will be required to hoe the growing plants. But if the seed be planted too early, it will be a long time coming up ; the young and tender plants will grow exceedingly slow ; and so much manual labor will be required to dress out the rows, that farmers fre quently resolve never agaiu to at tempt to grow sorghum. These same suggestions touching the preparation ol the soil are equally applicable to raising turnips. It the ground be managed as herein directed, unless the land is unusually foul,a crop may be raised with about the same amount of manual labor that is required for Indian corn. Examine the bodies of apple trees and peach trees, near the surface of the ground, for borers, us they will commence working as soon as the weather is warm and dry. The pres ence of borers in any tree may readily be determined by the fine bits of wood, like sawdust,which they expel from the orifices where they may be found. They must be cut out with a knife, or a small gouge, and the wounds smeared with grafting wax, or they will soon destroy the tree. \ oung trees, vines and shrubs may be transplanted, the former part of the present mouth, if the leaves are not developed. When trees and vines are lemoved.the roots should be well protected, as a few hours exposure will destroy the vitality of every root. Thousands of trees and vines are tran sported in wagons, on the cars and ou boats, with the roots exposed to sunshine ami the drying wind ; and all the little fibres are thus rendered life'ess in a.few hours. The conse quence is, it is difficult to make such trees live ; and if they do survive the summer, the branches will not grow one inch. Wage a war of uttc-r extermination against the tent caterpillars on fruit trees. A few hours labor will save a crop of fruit. NEW Jersey is now the paradise of schoolboys, the act of the Legislature, pro hibiting teachers from administering the birch and the cane for juvenile offences, having taken effect.
