In many places there are grounds
which cannot we'll be ploughed, that,af-
ford tolerable pasturage, if not too much
occupied by bushes. The shrubs which
ere inclined to grow in these situations,
are alders, briers Of several kinds, whor-
tleberry bushes, SC. Where these are
permitted to grow, they prevent the
growth OF grass to great extent, and
make that (which does grow sour and
worthless.
The mode usually adopted for killing
bushes in such circumstances is to NOW
them. The efficiency of this has been
found to depend much on the time of the
year in which the work is done. Cutting
in winter seems to have little effect to-
wards destroying them; they start with
the return Of spring and grow rapidly.
The effect is nearly the same if they
are cut while the foliage is devel oping.
All trees and shrubs make their annual
growth in few weeks from the time of
putting cut leaves. During the remain
der of the season the wood hardens, and
the buds for next seasons foliage are
set. The juncture when the leaves
have attained their full size and the
growth of them is checked, is sometimes
called the "turn of the sap" The vi
tality of many plants is greatly impair

period-the last of August is more IA

II has been for long time the popu-
lar belief that some shrubs, if cut in
the old of the moon in August, when the
sign was in the heart, would "bleed TO
death" Whether the moon or the sign
have anything to do with the matter or
net, we believe the fact has been pro-
ven that the effect of cutting many
shrubs the last of August, is more de-
structlve to them than if the work is
done at any other time.

SnlaEl Farms


Many of our farmers are so situated
that they are unable to hire much labor,
apply much manure, or expend much
capital on their land. They see thsir
neighbors putting in large number of
acres, and they do the same. They run
over the land. They half work it,
They get small crops, the produce of
which is almost eaten up by the expense;
and instead of growing richer, Trey Ell
Their remain, year after year, as they are,
or become poorer. VIII such listen to a
brother farmer, who has been led to
work his own way, and gain experience
for himself? Your object is to make a
good living off your farm. You ought to
receive,
|. A good days wages for fair days
work, and little over for your manage
ment, all the year round.
Ii. Ten per cent. interest On what
your farm has cost you and also on your
stock and inn Elements for you could get
this for your money if it is loaned out f:
III. You should have ten per cent.
more for wear and tear, to cover chance
of loss, and death Of stock, besides keep
ing up your fences and buildings.
~. You should have your living, i. e..
your eating, lodging, and washing.
V. You should have profit besides
these, or something remaining when all
these expenses are paid. We suppose
that you hire no labor, or otherwise the
wages of your hired man must be paid
also. Unless you get all this, farming
is not as good business 10 you as it
ought to be. You will say that you have
never got anything like it. Then it is
full time that you stop, and think awhile.
Your present mode of farming is not lu-
crativs. "Ls it the right mode p These
are the questions which you should plain
ly ask yourself. We think there is a
better plan. A farmer is manufactu-
rer of grain and meat. The sell is the
mill. The team is the motive power
Do you give the mill ard team more to
do than they can accomplish properly !?
On an average it costs ten dollars an "a
ere to cultivate our usual crops-fron
ploughing to selling, including interest
SiA A"iiA CIV. Az hiat J ihotdhCCS hliSW,
the whole produce is scarcely worth ten
dollars an acre (; sometimes it is worth
less, and then there is dead loss
Now, if by adding two dollars an acre to
the expense, you can add ten dollars to
the produce, would you not be eight dol
lars an acre better off? Here is the ve-
ry thing: Cultivate less Lana and cul-
tsUate that little thoroughly and you will
find yourself growing rich. Which is
best, to cultivate 25 acres at $12 an a.
ere, costing $500, and get $500 worth
of produce ; or TO cultivate so acres at
$40 an acre, costing $500, and get $500
worth Of produce ? We are not exagge-
rating the matter. Many and many
farmer in Michigan is doing the latter !;
aud all he gets is his wages as hired
man for working his own land; for of
course his labor is part of the cost of
$40 an acre and he runs yearly risk
Of losing all, or part Of this. We repeat,
CULTIVATE LESS LAND, cuLTIvATE BET
TER, and you will be richer.
