Notes for the Season,

room has just made It's appearance.
and we ere looking anxiouslv for the
first blue bird. Before the work of
cultivation commences in earnest, much
needs to be done to get things in order.
The fence posts have become thrown
up with ;he frost, and want straighten-
ing, or tie fence will soon present a
very rnaghtly appearance. The gate
posts must be attended to, or the gates
will not shut well, and cause YOU much
annoyance in making them secure, and
after all the cattle will take advantage
of your neglect, and get into quarters
more suited to their fancy than those
you have provided for them. The old
bars that caused you so much trouble
last sumner, and which you resolved
a hundred times should be substituted
by COOL gate, must be removed at
once, or they will annoy YOU for anoth-
er season. Many rails have been blown
from the fences, and, unless they are
replaced, these low places will furnish
excellent amusement for cattle in Jump
ing, almost equal to gymnasium, and
the younger members of the herd will
be tit to graduate after one term, with
the highest honors After this, no or
dlnary fence will detain them. Some
Of the corners need blocks or stones
under, and stakes over them.
Clean up the door yards, and rake
into a pile the saw-dust, chips, &c,
that have Accumulated during the win
ter. If you had some corner in a shed
where you could place it under cover,
and get the women to throw all the
waste water from the house on it, by
the fall it will make a manure pile rich
as guano, without any outlay except a
little good sense. # the pile is not
large enough to absorb all the waste
water from the house, add load OF
peaty-muck, or any old turf In this
way a nuisance is turned into money:
for nothing looks more sloyanly than an
untidy door yard.
BY all means fence off q spot
for vegetable garden, and for
the smaller fruits, such as radishcs,
peas, beans, currants, strawberries, and
so Oh. There is 10 reason why the
