HINTS FOE THE MONTH Farm work has been delayed by bad weather, and in many localities by want of help, so that the farmer's afrairs are not as snug in general, as is desirable on the approach of win ter. Of course, the farmer's efforts towards securing his autumn harvest will be continued with vigor until the end is attained. But it is a wrong s , istem that compels the closing 'la hors of the year to be those of the harvest. We have constantly aimed to inculcate the idea :that the work ( the last autumn month should be ~feral improvement of the firm, the forwarding of that of the -•icceeiling year. Our climate fails farmer in the spring, but it fa him gloriously in the harvest lie can remedy this defect by good calculation, Look at the firmer of your neighljorhood ; ho devotes November to plowing, (1rL;:::ng, repairing, 'taking proper t;:t . his stock ; and the storms made him a bit fretfid, and the of winter that sheeted his swith snow and arrested the. the rill, found him with sheds tiles, fodder, and fuel ready to PM :.._(l and comfort all that was trust ca to his care: Tile L)ro,gressive far mer will not let the lesson go un heeded. ,Svcs--All classes of stock should be kept thriving. Often as much flesh is lost in November and De cember as can be gained thereafter, with liberal Iced, in four months. No flitting animal should stand still, and no store stock fall away ; all should be macre comfortable by shelter, and racks provided in the yards to save fodder. Horses need grooming and es. - cercise to avert ill effects of the change to idleness and the stall from hard labor and the pasture. Alight ked ofgraiu for sheep and cattle, .beginning early in the season, is cheaper than neglect in this particu lar and staing, them later, to stretch their hides and cover the angits of the frames. Plenty of water `'thould be provided, and it should be conve nient of access as possible. A dry, warm yard is always better than range in a muddy field or bare pas ture ; in the latter stock glean noth ing of value to eat, and grow restless and lose flesh by roaming. Aim' to let stock have plenty to eat and a good chance to sleep and rest. Let them enjoy the sunshine, but ward offthe piercing wind. • .31anure.—This is a very important for farmer's consideration in winter time. Many do not think ts o in the Prairie States. The time weai. when the . Mohawk Valley far -3r,-; piled thei a imauure so the spring -EI- 2 6,1s would sweep it oat of the Perhaps_they have heard how cid:l.s cleaned out the Angean Mr. But the time came when iiatin of the Mohawk needed :re. If muck, or forest leaves, are at hand, it is well to layer of either in the yards and cover-with straw. The yards. 1: swine are kept ought, like to he supplied with straw, or leaves.

ME reikl.:-n: the entire mass more valua ble !any larmers could feed and fat with profit if no gain were . mado but the manure ; but with pros cut prospects small farmers might find it otherwise profitable to put flo(!3:s of sheep, twenty-live and fifty in number, into good condition- for the butcher next March. It would be none the less profitable if grain were purchased. Vie For,;:itiop.—Have yon one mid well stocked with needful tools ? A great many pleasant and profitable winter hours may be passed in a limn workshop. The farm imp•e merits can be leisurely overhauled, repainted, painted and housed. Ma ny new ones may be built eheap,?r. thaulpurchased. And if you have plenty of good implements, in good order, your work can be done at lea expense and with greater rapidity. A farm workshop should possess fa cilities for working both wood and EMT iTuel.—Comparatively, there are now but few localities where wood is Hlcaper than coal. The existing ft)rest.s should be preserved, but intli:ll fuel may be gleaned without injury by selecting dead timber aims wo:•thiess varieties, thus giving the valuable sorts a better chance. Far mers ~ vho have wood lot.i ample enc.u2h to supply their fuel had bet ter, alter gleaning them, begin on one side, and cut clean, leaving the young growth to take. the place of the large trees. In this way a lot may be cut over once in twenty •or thirty years to advantage. It might be advisable to plant black walnut, Chesnut, locust, &c., where the ex isting timber is not so valuable, and with some care the next crop would be worth more. • • Tim - ben—Every fanner should pre serve a stock of useful kinds, store it where it will season mid keep dry. That should be part of the stock of thc workshop. = A.ccounts.—Balance your accounts this ruonth, settle your bills, take an inventory ofstock, and see to •a dol lar how profitable your year s work has been. Scan your syc4tem of far ming to introduce .improvements, and estimate how ranch you. can .af ford for improvements, and deter mine what oir s t o make. Farmer's C l labs and .Papers.—Every school dis#,rict shoUld support a Far mer's Club. We are frequently ask ed to give suitable rules and regula tions for them. We don't believe in constitutions and by-laws for Far mer's Clubs. They trammel and serve no good purpose. Go straight at your work. You want a Chair man to talk at, and restrict members to ten minutes' speech, a Secretary to take notes to be recorded for ref erence, and plenty off' earnest menz&rs. At each meeting appoint a commit tee of three to choose subjects for discussion at the next; If you incur expenses meet them by voluntary subscriptions.—Rural New Yorker. Air Frank 3. Clarke, of Butte Co., instittted a course of experiments to guide him in managing his (hill. He is, we think, an accurate observ er, and his results, which he ' sends us, tally very well with the views of those who have given the subject the most study. They are as follows 1. The quality of the milk differs almost, if not quite, as mild: as. the quantity given by the different cows 2. In buying get a sample of the cow's Milk, if possible. . 3. A cow gives richer milk when fat than When poor. • 4. A cow gives pobrer milk with the first calf than afterwards, other conditions being equal. • 5. The older'a cow is, the richer her milk until her constitution begins to fail. G. The longer the period which has elapsed. since calving, the richer the milk, • • 7. The richness of the milk Varies with quality of the feed. 8. The richness of eream varies— that is that from the richest milk making the most butter.. 9. A cow should be in first-rate condition when she calves ; all the fat goes into the pail. 10. The strippings or last milk is five to nine times richer than the first drawn. 11. A cow must be in goodhealth to give rich wholesome milk. 12. Milk should be skimed when •i 8 hours old and sweet. VARIETY OF FOOD FOR ANI TEALS. Many suppose that this means to make a complete change every little tr hale, but according to my experi ence such changes are altogether wrong in the sudden way some make them. Variety, according to my idea, is sufficient and best to be giv en with regularity and daity with cows and sheep ; during feeding Sea sons, and when it is necessary and advisable to give a fresh kind of food, it is well to do it gradUally. For instance, when a cow goes to grass, put them out at first when the dew has evaporated and get them in early. in the evening and feed at night, for the first week, keeping them in the former quarters, and by the same rule accustom them by de grees to a dry diet for winter ; but in the United States, as the hay gen t•rally consists of one or two coarse grtisses, it is requisite to give bran or feed of some kind to keep the an imals in tiptop condition, whereas hay made from the natural grasses, where the varieties almost exceed belief, will make beef . without any auxilary whatever. ly far months, is all the variety many of the latest beasts have had. When a few good swedes are added, - the, variety is great ; but to give oileake for a week, and tnen for a change give none, wonld be very great folly in the fatting of any animal. When cattle are fed with any degree -of judgment, and variety of the kind here alluded to is contrived, there will be no sickness, no unthriftiness, and perhaps no abortions among fe males unless they eat hay made from grass when the seed sheds, in which ease ergot and the seeds of many weeds which have time to mature may cause mischief of this kind. "Variety is charming," but sudden ellange is only a little better than no ehange at all,—unless the changes are all for the better, in which state of thiw change away. R. R. M A . TURING PLANTS IN WIN TER. C. A. Sweet informs us that two yo:trs ago he had in the fall some cal)bages which failed mature, when it occurred to him that . they might be made to grow during the winter with very little trouble. Acting on this conviction be dug a trench in the garden, and set the immature plants in it a couple of inches deep er i hall they grew before. On each side of the row a board was placed edge, and on top of these two other boards, coming together at the top and forming a roof. These are fastened in position. leaving the plants ample room to expand. The ends of the cabbage rows should be closed with the exception of small vent holes for the circulation of air Over this board cover, place about one foot of earth, and leave the cab bages to expand at will. In the sprinL , they will come out crisp and matured, furnishing a desirable when for the table at a season when most things of a vegetable nature have become stale and and insipid. I'. T. Barnum has on his farm in Bridgep't Conn ; some Holland cattle that are jet black, except a white stripe like a blanker around their middles. They are excellent milk , ers. I= MILK EXPERIMENTS. 113=1 Hay, meitand oilcake, given dai I=l THE NATIONAL, BELLEFONTE,PA., FRIDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 18, 1868. MILK FEVER IN COWS. This disorder, which it is • feared is on the increase .in our dairies is ascribed to various causes. It is sometimes produced by exteltal in jury. It is often ascribed to colds contracted by exposure to the chan ges and storms of our climate. While others believe like the gout in the human foot, milk fever in cows often results from high feed ing, and from the preternatural de velopments of the lacteal organs pro duced by such high feeding, and by a long course of breeding,.for the es pecial purpose of securing a race of deep milkers. Whenever a cow comes home affected by the garget . put her in the cow house where she has a dry warm bed, feed her on dry hay and 'allow her to go to pasture but a short time the next .day—in one word treat her as a patient should be treated with cold and in flamation. Frequent milking, with patient and gentle rubbing and kneading of the bag, and Washing with warm water ; or spirits and water ; or champhor and vinegar ; or soft soap diluted in water; . or lime water about as thick as white wash, mixed with an equal quantity of flax seed oil, well beaten together with a knife, as an ointment ; or rum and water ; or bitter .sweet oint ment, or any other similar applica tion that requires or encourages much rubbing and Working the bag.

Job, the honest, upright and .pa= tient, was a farmer, and • his endu rancepassed into a proverb. • Socrates was a farmer, and : yet wedded to his calling the glory o his immortal philosophy. • divides .with Dike was a farmer, and divides .with Prometheus the honor of sub jecting the ox for the use of man. Modern science is literally making "the desert to blossom as the rose" in.the great desert . of Sahara. In 1360 five artesian: wells had been opened, around which vegitation thrives luxuriantly; 30,000' palm trees, and 1,000 fruit trees were planted, and. two thriving villages established. At the depth of a little over five hundred, feet, an under ground river or lake was struck, and live fish have been thrown up, show ing that there is a large body of water underneath. :=::: THE ISLAND GRAPE Cuors.—A communication in a late number of the Sandusty Register states that the grape crop on Kelly's Island is much short of what was expected during the growing season. Some of the vineyards will barely pay the expense of picking, leaving no re- . numeration for the land and cost of cultivation. The killing frost of the rith of October is mainly chargea ble with the diminished yield. Expeiient recently made at Che atm, Ill„ in drying corn by hot air and thereby getting it to an early market and obtaining the first pri ces of the season are repaid by a per fect success. Two dry-houses are already in operation and another will be added. I= In Canada most of their pork is fatted on peas, six bushels of peas, and more can be grown from an acre than of corn. A farmer int Polk township, deter. son county, lowa, reported as having a Durham calf five months old which weighs 400 rounds. Beeves .of the best quality,. it is said,"can.be had in Texas for fifty cents a head." • onstiteentr's Ptgartment. LEMONS Fon F.EvEu.—Says that walking cyclopmdia of health. Dr. Ball:—"When persons are feverish and thirsty beyond what is natural, incited in some cases by a metalic taste in the mouth, especially after drinking water, or by a whitish ap pearance of the greater part of the surface of the tongue, one of the best "cooler," internal or external, is to take a lemon, cut off the top, sbrinkle over it some loaf sugar, working it downward into the lemon, and then suck it slowly, squeezing the lemon and adding more sugar as the acidity increases from being brought up from a lower point. Invalids with . feverishness may take two or three lemons a day in this manner with the most marked by a sense of coolness, comfort and invigoration. A lemon or two thus takeh at'tea time,' as an entire sub stitute for the ordinary 'supper' of summer, would give many a man a comfortable night's sleep and an awaking of rest and invigoration, with an appetite for breakfast to which they are strangers who will have their cup of tea for supper, or "relish," and c-cake," and berries, or wadies and cream. BARED NAM—Most persons boil ham. It is much better baked, if baked right. Soak it for an hour in clean water, and wipe it dry ; spread it all over with thin batter, and then put it into a deep dish with sticks under it, to keep it out of the gravy. When it is fully done take off•the skin and batter upon the flesh sides and set it away to cool. To KEEP WORMS FROM DRUID FRurr.—Put the fruit in common muslin bags, with a little sassafras back scattered through, a handful of bark to a bushel of fruit, and no worms will trouble it.
