' Jfarm Gartmt \ r Iftittbin. I Fanner*. *n.l Asriitiltnr*! iu*a generally •i* rv|l rhyme wee a great u-sifltame to , •he memory. Thu* many of the suving* of Frank - tin'* I'iH.r Richard have beeu banded down from lu'ber m *>' P. hdJ are still hoa*ehold worJf among ua. 'l'ne following collection was male by Dr. J C. V. Smith, former!* of Boston, an! published in the New York Tribune. If hatter churned in morning air la kept in a cool place with care, The taste is nice , But that which shows the buttermilk I>ol't sell to those who dress in silk For any price. To be in debt Brings out the sweut. No half-cooked meat is fit to eat. A woman who sneezes Ought not to make cheeses. Pat her hands in a muff. Or ever tike snuff. When the wind is east and turkeys gobble, It is no time a horse to hobbie ; Bat let him range to catch the breeze— Should he be troubled with the heaves. An ox with broad horns and short glossy hair, Is good for a team, the market, or fair. One white foot is bad, and two are too many, That horse i best that does not hare any. A farmer without hogs, But an army of dogs. Will have more poppies than pork ; For the swill will be lost, To the husbandman's cist, — Dogs good for nothing to work. The slackest farmer, strange to say, 1* known for being out of hay. it does Dot pay in any way, T > milk a cow three times a day. When chickens roost above the mow, It spoils the bay for horse or cow. The wall-bred daughter for a'farmer. A prudent helpmeet and a charmer- It is Do place to set poles, . Where moles or mice have dug their holes. Cms insk* r.o food for kine to eat, But they ore good for stroking meat Pork and beans make muscles strong— Something farmers seek ; It is a dish to make lite long, When cooked but once a week. A slovenly dress, a shabby pate, The .'ences down, a broken gate, Pigs in the garden, weeds very bigh. Children unwashed—no bacon to fry— Lots o* great dogs and yawling torn cats, Windows repaired with a dozen old bats, An empty barn —not a sjiear of hay, Cows in the clover, horse run sway, Things sold by guess without being weighed, Bills coming in and taxes unpaid Ptjies a:.d tobacco—whiskey—neglect, Drag in their train, as all might expect, All sorts of trouble to fret away lite— But worst of the whole, an unhappy wife. Many estates are list in the getting. Since men have forsaken hewing aud splitting, And women their sewing and knitting. A makerel sky— The wind will be high. Then bring in the grain. Close by there is sain. A smoky rhiney uiay be uureJ, A scolding woman not endured, A fanner's wife, like cream or curd— Is to be seen but seldom beard If you would thrive. Be up by five ; For there is health And certain wealth, when at the pt >w, Or milking cow. A farmer at home should be found, And clten looking at hi* ground— inspecting fields, repairing fence For dollars come by saviog pence. Clear the soil from moles and slugs, Prune the trees—keep of the bugs, • Then fruits and meloDS, rich and fair, Will recompense for all vonr care. Rutabaga, carrots, and beets, Improve the character of meals ; They make good beef, and quicker too, Than any other feed will do. At the larmer's cost Is an early frost. Exercise reason - Harvest in season Of all the crops a farmer raises, Or capital employs, None bring such comforts and euoh praises, As a crop of girls and boys Vaatoi-s liems —A Virginia farmer says that, with sheep anil clover, be can make any land pro- j ductire, unless it has the barrenness r.f the sands of Sahara. Some farmers comuien-e business in the morning , in such a hurry that night overtakes them before they have determined what to do first. The impression, somewhat prevalent,that soft corn is better for fattening stock than the matured portion has nothing in nature to support it. Working horses wbeo in the stable, are better without a blanket than with it. Wheu driven hard j and standing out, the blanket should be used Swinging a bat or screaming at a runaway horse ; * is about as sensible as would be the application ef j burning straw t> a burning building Somebody has denominated Indian corn the great j fattn lever. It is certainly a useful product, but not quite so goo 1 for bread as wheat, to a Northern palate. It is commended by some that following corn with oats or barley, and then with wheat, is not in anv secse a rotation, as all theso belong to the same family. It is said the best strawberry plants come from the third and fourth sett of runners, and that the first sets of runners, end that the first and second sets should be cut off. M QT Whse the labors of the day are peat, let good and newspapers invite the youngsters to 1 the salting room. ' IJiijsrillaiifoits. J~JEL LACK A WESTERN R K. Winter Arrangement— IMT*B. TP.
