WORK FOR JUNE.

The hoe and the cultiyator would be
appropriate emblems of the work for the
farm this month. Vegetation now pushes
forward with rapid growth. Not only are
the staple crops taking frmer hold of the
soil, and expanding with cheering promise,
but ragweed, daisey, dock, thistles, and a
numerous horde of foul weeds also feel the
quickening sunshine, and send out their
hardy roots to rob the soil and vex the
husbandman. These are to be subdued !;
and, scarcely less important, the soil needs
frequent stirring, to keep it in right me
chanical condition. The roots of plants
require air and water. IF the surface be-
come crusted, evaporation is obstructed,
the moisture from the deeper layer of the
soil does not rise freely and the airs and
dews cannot freely enter from above.
The organic matter decomposes but slowly
under sach circumstances, the plants are
stinted for nourishment, and their growth
is checked. Hoeing by hand or horse
power, is the remedy for weeds and a
hide-bound soil. There may also yet be
vacant spots to be replanted with corn, or
to fill with other seasonable crops. He
who has n mind to work will find enough
to employ him.
