Cautions and diunjions In Garden
?
-ing l
Fhe management oi a garden (sum
marily speaking) consists in attention
and application : the first should be
of that diligent and provident kind,
as not only :o do well in the present,
but for the future; and the lattersliould
be of that diligent nature (as willing
ly) " never to defer that till to mor
row which may be done to-dav." —
Procrastination is of serious const*.
quence to gardening ; and m-gleci of
times and seasons will be fruitful of
disappointment and complaint. It will
often happen, indeed, that a gardener
cannot do what he would; but if he
(iocs not do what he can, he will be
most justly blamed and perhaps cen
sured by none tno-e than by himself.
Weeding. — Weeding in lime is a
material thing in culture, and stir-ing

Feeding Cattle.
Molasses, or treacle, lotv priced,
much diluted with water, has been

molasses may be diluted in the most
copious manner with water, as the
fattening power will still exceed ex
