This is n question which every farmer ought to put to himself, in regard to seve ral departments of his business, in order to ascertain if he has Bit things in readi ness for winter. We do not propose to name all the things, which upon most fa ms require to be attended to before the setting in of winter, but only those which we think ate neglected far too frequently. How often, especially in new settlements are stock of all kinds left unprotected du ring the whole of winter! Nothing to be seen about a man's premises in the winter gives us a more unfavorable impression as to his character, than the sight of animals suffering from want of proper sheltering and stabling Another matter much neg lected, is the proper mire of furrows and ditches to curry off water from the low spots where water is apt to stand after fall and spring rains, killing the wheat or in juring the soil. These should be cleared out and kept clear as they are often in efficient for the wan' of a little clearing. Keeping Grapes in Winter• The following methud of keeping pap, in winter, is given by u correspondent cf the Rural New Yorlcer have packed grapes in various ways —to cotton batting, in cotton wadding, with the stems tied with twine, and with paper Letween the layers—and have ca r red at the conclusion that none of these things are necessary, unless the gropes are put into tight boxes. If so packed t , re must be some dry substance to ab b the moisture, (always passing off more until the fruit becomes perfectly u.tierwise it will mildew and rot the Glassware, Varnishes, Brushes, Instruments, Ground Spices, Whole Spices, and all other articles usually kept by Druggists, including Borax, It.digo, Glue, Shellac, Potash, &c., All orders by mail, or otherwise promptly tended to.

Curing Cornstalks. A correspondent of the 3fuine Former says, his method of saving cornstalks is to cut and lay on the hills the butt ends high est, for this reason : if it rains no water will collect inside of the barrel part of the leaf, and should it be rainy for several clays while the. stalks are green they will but little injury. He speaks from , Tienee. When he binds them, which • done the same day they are cut, ~ weather is doubtful, he hauls them oily into the barn, pit'hes them on to the hay mow, and spreads them out as he tried to :proud flax. They may lay a foot thick or more, cutting the binders as he laya them down. '1 h , -.y need no more core, and are as bright and as fresh as can be wished. Cough in Homo. We once heda horse, that had caught . a bad cold, and coughed so severely that he could he heard han mile. All sorts of remedies ware all rejected, although some might have proved useful, and the follow. ing course was pursued. The horse was in the first place very carefully and mod erately used so as to never produce perspi ration. He was carefully blanketed when the weather was cold. (it was about mid. itatumo.) or when he was in the least de•. gree heated—he was kept constantly on green and succulent food, clover, roots, &c., and was supplied with plenty of the best water, at all times. In a few weeks he was perfectly well. It is an old saying that more depends on the nurse than oe the physician, which was verified in this instance. Protecting Trees from Mice• Messrs Brit/ors—l see oy your papers 'several ways for protecting trees from the depredations of mice. We have a very simple method for keeping Mr. Mouse from our trees. Take two horse-shoe tile—place their bottoms together a round the body of the tree—fasten them with a cord, or what's much better, some small brass wire—let the lower end dip into the ground an inch or more; so that the mico will not work under them.— Your tile once purchased, which will cost some three or four cents per tree, you are prepared with a defence for life, which mice will be slow to nibble —C orrespon dent of the Country Gentleman. Farmer'sLivestments. The following sensible advice from the homestead, should be pondered by every farmer who thinks he has surplus capi- ' , No farmer can afford to invest his money off his ownland until he has spent ' all the money that can be usefully spent in improvements thereon. When there are no more demands from the wastinz manure, the useless swamp, the cold, wet !upland, the bush pasture, the dilapidated barn, the scantly furnished tool room, and the thousand other op .nings that allow profitable labor, he may begin to consider the case of shingles, tape, and other can• didates for his capital." , New Mode of Bending Wood. Messrs. E. A. & C. Kilburn, of Bur. lington, Vt.. have lately invented a meth. od of bending ship's knees, and which consists in forcing the stuff endwise into a close sided meld, having the desir.il curved form longitudinal. and having its i interval transverse section only just of the ; dimensions of the transverse section of the piece of wood is thus confined latter:y in all directions. during the bending pro cess, and is thereby prevented from break. ing, splitting, or splintering.—Scientifle. .lin,rican. .
