4grintitural. FARM WORK FOR JUNE. The fine and the cultivator would be ap propriate emblenia of the work of the farm. for this month. , Vegerationliow pushes forward with rapid growth: Not only are staple crops -taking firmer hold of the soil, .and erpanding with cheering' promise, but ragweed, daisy, dock, thiSties, and a nu-' merous horde of foul weeds also feel the quickening sunshine, and send out their -hardy roots to, fob-the field and vex the husbandman; These are to be iubdiied ; and scarcely less important, the soil needs frequent stirring to keep itin right chanical condition. The roots of plants -require air and water. If the surface be comes crusted,, evaporation is obstructed, the moisture from the deeper layer of the sail does not - rise freely, and the air and dews cannot readily enter . from above.— The organic.matter decomposes tint slowly under such circumstances, the plants are stinted for nourishment, and their growth is checked. Hoeing by hand or by 'horse power,..is the remedy for weeds and for a hide-bound soil. There may also yet be vacant spots to replant with corn;, or: to fill with other seasonable crops. - He who has a mind to Work, willnow find enough to employ him. Barns and Sheds—See that they- are in order before the busy haying season comes on.. Arrange the hay-way platforms to keep the hay from the ground and allow ventilation. If hay has spoiled, remove it to the nianu . i - e . heat: Examine grain bins, wool closets, and cattle stalls, for vermin, -and-cleanse if necessary. Beans-L-Plant where corn has failed, if seed of King Philip or either early varie ty of corn cannot be obtained. ' - Boy will be ambitious to do men's work. Do not allow them to exceed their strength. Give them good tools, alloW them frequent rests, and remember "Alt work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy." Make farm, life attractive if you would have them remain in the business. . Buckwheat yields a quick return, and is an available crop for -lands too wet for Spring plowing. It may also replace corn destroyed by ,worms or other. casualties. It may .be sown-the last of this month, but the first or second. week of July is preferable in this latitude; as it then has the cooler weather of Septemher for filling. Make the_soil•fine and' Mellow, and .use half a bushel to three pecks of seed per acre. : Butter—this is one of the very best dai rying months, both tbr quantity and qual ity. The rllv growth ofgrass is plentiful and tender, and the cons' if well cared for, have.come . up to full condition. Ob serve scrupulous cleanliness in every de partment. Kelp the milk and cream at a temperature of from 65° Fahren heit. Let all butter be well worked. See that the cows are milked rapidly, and per fectly dry. Let bullett for market be put up neatly, and !plainly marked with, the owner's name. Cabbages Cultivate among the rows fivquentlythey can scarcely belmed too much. Plant out for late crops.

If this be done, leave every third'' space vacant, to give room for curing-the onions whey pulled. Corn—King Philip or other quickly maturing varieties may be planted, to re- ylare failures or otherwise.• Manuring in -the hill will give it. a rapid start.
