ALGRICELTUr. FACTS FOR FARMERS There are some things that farmers should know, which. it practiced upon, will result ill good, oiz : They should know that it is an error to plant trees from a State limiter south than their own.—ln a cold season only the seeds from a colder climate will ripen well. Often* breaking up a surface keeps a soil in heath; for when it lies in a hard bound state, enriching showers run off, and the salnbrious sir cannot enter. \Vends exhaust lII,‘ strength of the grobnd, and, if Putit red to grow, may be called girden sins. The hand and the hoe are the instru ments fur eradicating weeds ; yet if there it, room between the rows for the spade, it ie well to Luc it Never keep your cattle short--if you starve them they will in turn start you. It - *•ilt not do to hoe a great field for a little crop, or to mow twenty acres for five triads of hay. Enrich the-land and it will pay you for it. Butter farm thirty acres well than fifty acres poorly. ' ' In dry pasture dig water on the brow of L' hill ; springs are more frequently near the surface on a height than in a vale. Rain is cash to a farmer, provided he has land in order to drink up its riches. The foot of the owner -is good ; manure for lank . . Out bushes:. that.you wisli_to destroy. in the gummier, and with i sharp intrument —they will bleed freely anti die. Never plowin' bad weather, or when the ground is very wet, because tt makes the surface rough. Accounts should be kept, detailing the expenees and products of each field. When an implement is no longer want ed fur the season, lay it carefully aside, hut first let it be welt cleaned, and a coat of paint would not hurt it. Obtain good seed, prepare your ground well, sow early, and pay no attention to the Cultivate your own heart aright; re member that whatsoever a man soweth, that shall lie reap. Do not begin farming by building an extensive house, nor a capacious barn, till you have something to store in it. Avoid a low and damp sight for a dwel ling. Build sufficiently distant from your barn and stock yard to avoid accidents by fire. Keep notes of all remarkable events that may occur on your farm. Recording even your errors will be a benefit. Good remits make good neighbors—as do.sholtkeyjcm! .. 94p4p long friends,., Experiments are highly commendible, but do not become an habitual experi menter. The depredations of birds are fully com pensated by the services they render in preying upon destructive insects. Sheep put into fresh stables are apt to be killed by eating too much grain. A. hare pasture neither enriches the soil, fattens the animals, nor increases the wealth of the owner. One animal well fed is of more value than two poorly kept. The better animals can be fed, and the more comfortable they can be kept, the more profitable they are. SOW clover deep—it secures it against drought. Ground once well plowed is better than thrice hutxly Bountiful crops are more profitable than poor ones. Make the soil rich, pulverize it well. and keep it clean, and it generally will be productive. Weeds that grow unmolested around the fences, stumps, 'and stones, scatter their seeds over the farm, and are very likely to grow. Cows well fed in winter. give an increa sed quantity of mills, in summer. An cm that is in good condition in the spring„ will ill perform more labor, and stand the heat of suiumer much better than one that is poor. When you see the fence down, put it up—if it.rernains unit to-morrow the cat tle may get over it. What ought to be done to-day, do it, for to•merrow it may rain. A strong horbe will work all day with out food, but keep bins at it,. and he will nut last long. A iich soil will produce good crops with out manure, but continue to take off with, out putting any thing on, and you will won Gad empty barns and poor kitchens. Finally : It is an errorlot to have a perfect system or order of managing a farrn. FOOD FOR MILCH COWS Ate large milk establishment, near New castle; England, the cows are fed in the following manner : 19 pounds of clover hay--out or chapped-178 lbs. brewer's grains. 12 lbs. ground flaxseed, 2 lbs. salt. sire mixed together, and equally divided as the daily food for twelve cows. The hay, after being cut, is put in the mash tub and scalded with boiling wa ter. The other articles are then mixed with it. It is *wed that a gnod cow, thus led, will yield an average of fourteen quarts of milk per daY; for eight months in suc cession.
