Cutting! Timber ix August. A cor
respondent of the Rural American says:
'If oak, hickory or chestnut be felled in
August, in the second running of tbe sap,
and barked, quite a large tree will season
perfectly, and even tbe twis will remain
aouud for years ; whereas that cut io win
ter, and remaining until the Dext full, (m
thick as your wrist,) wili be completely
atp-rotten, and will bo almost unfit for any
purpose. The body of the oak split into
iails will not last more than ttn or twelve
years. Chestnut will last longer, but do
comparison to that cut in August. Hick
ery cut iu August. is not subject to be
worm eaten, and will last a long time for
fencing. When I began farming in 1802,
it was the practice to cut timber for post
fencing iu the winter. White oak pos:a
and black oak rail, cut at that time, would
not last more than 10 or 12 years. In
1808, I began cutting fence timber in
August. Many of the oak rails cut that
year are yet sound, aa well as most of the
chestnut. If the bark id uot taken off this
month, it will of itself peel off the eecoud
or third year, and leave the tree perfectly
sound. The tops of the trees arc also
mere valuable lor fuel, than when cut iu
winter or spring. 1 advise young iarmors
to try the experiment, and if post fences
do not last twice as long, I will forfeit all
uy experience as worthless."
Go to Farming-. A good living ii
what comparatively few men succeed in
making in village or city life, and yet no
thing is more easy of accomplishment on
the farm. Resides, there is a pleasure in
cultivating and embellishing the earth,
Improving and increasing its products,
and thus adding to the aggregate of hu
man happiness. Why, then, should young
men hesitato to become farmers ? It is
both profitable and honorable. It is the
nearest approximation to independence,
that man, as a member of society, can
make. A gentleman farmer aud all
farmers are, or should be, gentlemen
belongs to an order of nobility that is not
indebted to place-holders for its installs- j
tion, and may, it he chooses, be ranked
amoug the greatest benefactors of the hu
man race. Let all idle young men go to
work on farms, and quit seeking third and
fourth rate clerkships. Iu short, go to
farming and quit begging.
Founder. I send you a reoipe for
founder, which, having used for five years,
know to be too valuable to keep from the
public. One tablespoonful of pulverized
alum thrown well back in a horse's mouth
just as soon as you find out ho is founder
ed. Keep from wator during the day.
In every case that I have tried it, it has
proved a sure cure. A friend of mine
had a young marc he thought a groat
deal of. We were out in the country and
drove pretty fast. On coming home he
told the boy to feed her a littio corn ; he
gave her a good feed of corn and after
wards some oats. In the morning she was
badly foundered. I gave her a dose of
alum as above, and no wator till night;
next day you would not have known it.
The above is worthy of a trial ; but it is
bolter not to feed or water your horse
when hot by hard driving. Rural World.
Rural Axioms. An axo costing $2,
with which a laborer may cut fifty cords
of wood a month, is a cheaper tool than an
axe costing one dollar, and with which he
can cut only forty cords.
A "cheap plough," at $5, costing in one
season S3 iu repairs, aod S3 more in lost
time to teams, men, and by retarding crops,
is a dearer plough than ouo at 10, requir
ing no repair.
A cow bought for 810, whose milk but
pays for her keeping, affords less profit
than one at $30, that gives double the
amount of milk afforded by the other.
A ten acre field, costing fifty dollars por
aere, and ditching, manuring and improv
ing fifty dollars more, so as to give double
crops, is much more valuable and profita
ble than ten acred unimproved, costing
double the money.
Tomato Vinegar. We find the fol
lowing receipt for the manufacture of To
mato Vinegar in an exchange; itis6tated
that excellent vinegar is made in this
manner :
Take one bushel of ripe tomatoes, wash
them in an open tub, and add one quart
of molasses that weighs eleven pounds to
the gallon, and thorooghly mix the whole
together, in which condition let the tub
stand several days, not neglecting to fre
quently stir the mixture in it. When a
decided vinegar odor is given'eff, the j uico
gbould be strained from the poniaoe and
put into casks and let stand until the pro
cess is completed. Vinegar thua made is
equal to the best, and to succeed in its
manufacture only requires to faithfully
follow out these directions.
The Maino I yanncr says : The bet way
to preservo haras from flies i, a coon as
they are smoked, to wrap them in twold
newspapers, first with one end and then
with another and tio the ends of the pa
lmer or papte them down. Let the string
to hang them up by came through the
paper, being very careful that the- tola
shall only be large enough to let the
tring through. No iusect can get thro'
paper. Woolens and furs cau be kept in
the same way, being careful that the egg
of the moth is not previously deposited.
A trial of a steam plow, rear San
Francisco, recently resulted very satisfac
torily, according to . a statement in the
California Farmer. It was put to work
upon a road which was as compact as long
travel could make it, and out.it up in ex
cellent style. It is equal toUho tahk of
plowing and seeding fifty acres per day iu
the most acceptable manner.
m
He who by the plow would thrive, must
either hold himself or drive.
