farm (Sartmi &|utrhrit, GATHERINGS. Cows should always be milked regularly and clean. Strawberry beds should now receive atten tion ; he cleaned oi all weeds and thinned cut. Keep a good lookout among the bee-hives, and be sore that there is hooey enough stor ed for winter feed. As they ripen, save seed of all choice kinds of vegetables, being careful to select from the earliest and best kinds for the purpose. Monthly roses now begin" to show their beauty ; aud, if in a good soil and location, they will not fail to afford flowers until froat comes. In order to have the largest and best speci mens of all kinds of fruit, it is necessary to thin it out, toaome extent, where the crop is ample. The smallest aud poorest fruits should be removed. Surfrce tillage alone will not produce the best results in growth, especially in a dry season j and, whether pamp or dry, that im plement which will best pulverize ibe soil is what the farmer and gaidner most need. The farmers of Long I-land are suffering this season from the potato rot. The Esses from disease last year are renewed this sea son cn a much larger scale. In some places fields embracing many acres are wholly blast ed. The Mercer variety appears to be the most affected. Jellies are aiways acceptable, and a great ornament to the table. Quinces, crab apples and Fall pippins, make the very best. Cur* rant jelly should be made when the fruit Jirst ripens. After straining the juice, boil gently half an hour before adding the sugar, after which it needs little mo r e. Cool a small quantity tn a dish before taking up, to 6e if it thickens. To grow the walnut, gather the nuts in the Fall, soon after they drop. Dig off three or four inches of earth on well drained ground, spread the nuts one or two tnches deep in the bed thus prepared and cover over with two or three inches of earth, sawdust, or anything that w 11 preserve the natural tnois ture. Plant two or three inches deep, as soon as the ground is in good order, in spring where tho trees are to stand permanently, as they do no bear tiansplauting, like most trees. The benefit derived fiom frequent stirring ofjihe surface soil in dry weather, especially if it be of a compact. Da' ure, is derived from the admission of air containing moisture.— Many cultivator think that all that is requir of them is to keep the weeds from growing among their plants, and they never stir the •oil except for this purpose ; but our best cul tivators have learned that frequent mowing of the soil is very beneficial to ail crops es pecialiy in time of drouth. This is the time when weeds ripen, if left to themselves. A day's work now, if prn perly directed, may save a week's work next season. Clear out the weeds from the corn and potato fields, therefore, cost what it wiil, and it will save expense in the end ; of all slovenly practices, by far too common among us, that of letting the weeds overtop the po tatoes and ripen, and shed their seeds on the land, is the worst. You may mark the good and the bad farmer by it as certainly as in any other way. After hay : ng cmes a period of comparative leisure on most farms. There is a time for a little draining, ditching, cutting bushes and other s'milar improvements. Many swamp or wet meadow may now be taken in hand and brought into cultivation, and a lot of ma terial for the compost heap, or cow-yard, thrown out, and le put in the way of pre paration fr use. X i thrifty fiirn tr will fail to provide the proper material for adding to the fertility of his land. If muck is perfectly d.ted, it will nold about nioeteuths of its own wei ht in liquid manure. The most important work for August is the preparation of the gi< unci for fall seeding.— Summer fallows are to be worked, and stub ble grounds plowed ; the latter should be turned over as soon as possible after being cleared of grain. Time is wanted for weeds to start before the final working preceding the sowing, and it is bct'ei to let the soil re ceive the good effects of the air, sun and rain, and become light and pulvt nzed before the seed is deposited in it. At lea-t the stubble should be well harrowed or gang plowed early to start the weeds. It has been frequently asserted that proper ly undcrdratned sub*>>iled lands never suffer from drouth. Who cannot name many fann ers lose their crops from drouth,at least once in ten years, and still have never experiment ed to know whether they can uuderdrain and subsoil their land, for one tenth the value of their crops, or whether such subsoilicg and underdratning will save them from drouth en tirely ? And those who doubt this fact,should they not make the experiment, or v'sit the farms of these whj have, to know of its truth ! It is thought, by the most of farmers, that the only way to have a good meadow is to plow up, and seed down every three or four years , but this is a mistaken idea, as mead-, ows, if the soil is not of a very light loam, will improve by age for a number of years, if treated in a proper manner—which is to pas ture as littles* possible, top-dress with plas ter at the rate of 20(1 pounds to the acte once in two years ; use barnyard manure as a top dressing, at the rate of fifteeu loads to the acre, which should be applied in the month of October. A meadow that has been trea • rd in this manner, has been mowed six sea sons, and has a belter sward on, and a better prospect for a good crop tbis year than it has bad for any time since it was seeded ; and bad a better crop ot hay on it l*st season than for several years previoue, fflistfUantous.
