shingIes...How 10 Lay and Nail Them.

so. II. E., of Portsmouth, N. H., says he
sends us "a chip for our basket we hope for
more from the same source. In the saving of
shingles from small bolts or round trees six or
eight inches in diameter, the shingles are Slab
ways or have piece of the heart in them, or
have more sap wood on one side than the 9TH
er. and the annual rings lap one upon the other.
If the sap side of shingle is exposed to the
weather and the heart side is placed next the
roof. it will not curl or warp up; also, if the
nails are placed in one inch each side of line
running through the centre of single, espe-
cially each side of the heart piece, if there is
one, (the usual manner is one inch from the
edge, however wide the single may be,) the
shrinkage will be from each edge towards the
centre. have seen roofs shngled with fir,
hemlock, spruce, cedar, and sapling- pine, re-
tanned in their place, and without split, and
also shingled in the old manner with the shin
giles split from shrinkage, making crack d
rectly over the joint in the lower course, and
under the joint in the next course, directly
above, causing leak. We know our plan
works well and will be useful to many.-Amer-

Hints for the Month.

September brings with it many new duties
which are peculiar to the month, and among
them is one of which we have spoken two or
three times recently in reply to questions by
correspondents-that of
LAYING Down LAND TO GRAss.-It would be
better if it were done In August, but early in
September will answer, if the season proves a
moist one. Old moving fields may be turned
over and reseeded with great advantage, es
pecially those that are remote from the build.
ings.
WINTER WHEAr.-This subject has also been
often alluded to recently. Try piece with it.
WINTER RYE.-Rather late for getting in this
crop, but better late than never.
BUDDING.-At any time before the middle of
the month this work may be done. We trust
that many of our readers have young peach
trees to bud, if nothing else.
DRAINING. Begin on the piece nearest the
buildings, that needs it, and continue as opDor-
tunity offers. There are not many items of
farm WORK that will prove more profitable.
STONE WALLs.-A little progress should be
made each year in laying up stone wallis
Where stones are abundant, they make the
cheapest Of all our fences Once well laid, on
good foundation, they will stand well for
several generations. If there are no stones on
the farm, that which was omitted in the month
of March, in regard to posts and rails, may now
be attended to.
MEADOW MucK.-There is no danger of
spending too much time in laying up a stock of
this material Our people do not yet appreciate
its Importance.
CUTTING AND CURING Corn STALKs-Much
difference Of opinion still exists as to cutting the
top stalk, or cutting up the whole plant and
stacking it. We have no doubt but more corn
is secured by the latter mode. The questions
are, is it convenient to harvest it in this way,
and is the fodder as good
FATrrNG Sw.NE.-Begin now, if you wish for
porkers that you will be proud of. They can
be fattenei cheaper gradually, than by forcing
them at a later period.

Practical Advantages ofDrilIins Wheat.

Among the advantages of drilling in winter
wheat over broadcast sowing, are the saving of
labor, the saving of seed, and securing more
abundant crops. Whether the grain is sown
broadcast, or drilled, the ground should receive
the same thorough preparation previous to dis
tributing the seed. If drilled in. one man can
complete the operation. by simply going over
the ground once. If sowed broadcast, the
ground mus. be narrowed twice after the seed
is sowed. This, in addition to the lime con-
sumed in sowing the seed by hand, will req uire
about three times longer than is necessary to
drill it in. MoreofVf, the drill, if properly
made and adjusted, will deposit every kernel at
a uniform DEP tn; whereas, the harrow covers
some of the seed too deep, some not deep
enoug h, and some not at all; and if the soil be
deep and mellow, the feet of the teams will
press considerable portion of it quite too deep.
Another advantage in drilling in the SEED is,
as soon as an acre or two is plowed the wheat
can be put in Immediately, thus finishing the
work as fast as the ground is p!owed. When
grain is sown broadcast, it is much more con-
venlent, and rather important, to have the entire
field plowed before sowing. so as to be abe to
harrow both ways. When farmer has drill,
he can pillow an acre, then harrow it, and drill in
the seed all in one day, when the soil is fres b.
which is the best condition to hasten the germi-
nation of the grain. He thus finishes his work
as he progresses, and is always ready for tenn
porary interruptions BY storms or rain, which
are oftenattended with more or less injury to
the crop, Such delays, especially with spring
grain. are often fatal to good crop.
No man can SOW wheat broadcast as evenly
as good drill will distribute it. But as a man
when sowing by hand will vary his steps, and
the force applied every cast of the seed, and
as the wind will often blow the grain from its
course, 1t becomes necessary to SOW much more
seed per acre, to secure as thick a stand of
plants, as when it is deposited with drill.

A Little Too RiDe.

As many of our readers are doubtless aware,
it is the custom for planters at the South to
purchase clothing for their slaves by the whole
sale; and as. of course, they have not the op
portunity to examine closely each article, they
are sometimes swindled, by few bad ones
thrown in among the good. An acquaintance
of ours tells US that on one occasion he laid in
a box of shoes, and distributed them 6mong
the negroes. A few days afterwards, "Old
Bob," favorite servant, found that the shoes
that had fallen to his lot were bursting out.
So, going to his master, he said:
"Massa, whar you buy desc shoesi"
81 bought them in New Orleans, Bob," re-
sponded our friend.
"WelI, whar de New Orleans people buy
'em7"
"They bought them from the people up
North. They bought them fiom the Yankeesr'
"Well, whar do de Yankees get emf" per-
sisted the negro.
1.-The Yankees 7-why, they pick them off of
trees, Bob
"Wwwell," responded the darkey, holding
Up his shoes, 81 reckon de Yankees didn't pick
desc pair soon enough, massa; ! reckon he wait
ed till-till-till dey was a little too ripe"

To Prevent Wood Rcttinc.

In order to prevent wooden posts and piles
from rottiDg while in the ground. the following
receipt has been sent to the Societe d. Encour-
agements, Paris. A certain paint is used which
has the hardness of stone, which resists damp
and is very cheap. 1t has been in use for the
last i've years: so parts of resin, 40 parts of
finely powdered chalk, about 300 parts of fine,
bard sand, parts Of lirseed oil, part of red
oxide of lead, and part of sulphuric acid, are
mixed together. The resin, chalk, sand, aud
linseed oil. are heated together in boiler; the
red lead and sulphuric acid are then added.
They a'e carefully mixed, and the composition
applied while hot. If it be not found sufficient
ly fluid, it may be made thinner by adding some
more linseed oil. This paint, when cold and
dry, forms varnish of the hai dness of stone.

Kansas Fruit.

That Kansas is admirably adapted to fruit
growing We consider amply demonstrated
When the Territory was organized eleven
years ago, there were in places fine orchards
growing and raised by civilized Indians. In
Missouri, adjoining Kansas, there are some OF
the finest orchards in the world. As grape
growing country this State cannot be surpassed.
Among the pioneer nursrymen and fruit growers
of this section is Mr.. W. E. Barnes, southeast
of this city. He yesterday exhibited US speci-
mems of the Bartlett pear, early Tilloton peach,
and Dracus Amber grape, which we have never
seen surpassed in the best fruit growing States
of the East. Mr.. Barnes has ten acres of
grapes, and will raise a crop this season of
about four tons. They are raised on the open
prairie. A great many vines we're planted by
him in the dry season of 1860; but scarcely any
of them died out. Mr.. Barnes has fairly de-
monstrated that among the many and excellent
advantages Of this young and growing State,
that most desirable advantage of being adapted
To fruit growing is to be added, and for this he
is deserving the thanks and encouragement and
and liberal patronage of the public.-Larrsnce

cncnmhers for Pickles.

The trade in cucumber pickles has largely
increased within the last four years, and is now
branch of business of considerable impor-
lance The demand having been created, it
becomes the business of the gardener and the
farmer to supply it,; aud if cucumber growing
be rightly managed, it becomes a source Of
considerable revenue to those Who embark in
it extensively, and it may be made one of the
incidental items that aggregate to quite large
sum with the generality of small farmers, for
il is no difficult matter to put up few barrels
of pickles, for mar get, from small garden
patch Of cucumbers. ~
As many will doubtless do this, the present
season, we wish to impress upon them the i'm
portance of picking their cucumbers when
quite small, for upon this will almost entirely
depend the receipt of q satisfactory price for
them in market Large pickles will not sell.
We were told by pickle dealer, few days
since, that he knew of lot of three or four
hundred barrels in this city that be could buy
for the freight charges, but that he could not
afford to give even that, for, on account OF ex-
IRENE size, he could not dispose Of them. For
the reason that people in the country have been
in the habit of picking their cucumbers when
so large, dealers in town can hardly be induced
to look at them when sent in to the commission
-men. Hence the latter are obliged to dispose
of them "for song" and the grower cannot
tell why. when pickles are quoted SO high, he
can obtain no more for his crop. The reason
is simply that stated above. The pickles are
too large. To be saleabe, the cucumber should
seldom exceed four inches in length-three
inches is still better, and Something depending
on the Variety from that down to two inches is
still preferable. These smaller ones being fit
ted for putting up in glass, bring the best
prices
1t may at first seem to the inexperienced
that by picking when so small the crop will be
greatly reduced, but il is not so, for the vines
will produce vastly larger number of small
than of large cucumbers. There is extra work
in picking, but this is much more than balanced
by the difference in price. Put them up in good
condition, and there is always market for
them at paying rates.-Prairie Farmer.

Sow Rye.

We are careIess-we do not like to take the
trouble always of doing even good thing
We think we viii do it, and We calcull tie on It,
But the time comes-and pas=es-and q good
has slipped from our hands. The regular work
of the farm is not SO apt TO be neglected-only
the outside or accidental
We have said this much on the subject that
is too much neglected by our farmers, namely
the sowing of rye for pasture and turning down
in the spring. This is an advantage the farmer
has which is of great Importance. Our stock
needs care. Does it not need it more in winter
than in SUMMER What then so fine as green
field, reserved especially for its use-sweet,
fresh, succulent pasture Rye, the hardy, the
thrifty, will do it. Sow on almost any SOIL but
best on a deep, rich, the coating of the grain
keeping it warm, and the depth of fertility aid
ing the warmth. Rye is coarse, thrifty grower
just the thing for the cold rough winte.; and
il will stand the seVerest Of weather Always
green. ALWAYS fresh! How fine it does look
when the early snow leaves it, thawed by the
sun or the South winds Then it has an eve
as fresh 40 the summer grain when a shower
radiates the earth. This is enticing to the
stock. How their eyes brighten, what pleasure!
what benefit for there is always something to
be considered in this pleasure, this enjoyment Of

Then, this turf, this felt, as We may call it,

frost, but it holds the soil, so that it cannot
wash, cannot be carried away. which is SO apt
to be the case if exposed. The truth is, we
should let no ground be bare durir the winter
1t is sure TO receive hurt If we do. Grass is a
protection, so is wheat. But all hoed crops on
billy land should have coat of rye if nothing
else. After potatoes, it can be sown in good
time. On corn ground SOW between the rows
and run the cultivator through. This should be
done when the corn begins TO be glazed, or " itt
the last working of the soil.
We thus secure pasture for our stock; we save
the land from washing, and, most of all (if tina
is possible), we have means, most ready and
agreeable, OF manuring the land. We neet
but turn under this grass crop, with all it,

1t is recommended for it, extreme simplicity
OF construction, groat strength, and conse-
quent durability and cheapness of repair
There is no stuffng box-the pressure being
held by cup packing, like that upon the
working piston, working in cylinder, fitted
for the purpose within the upper air chamber
which we think great improvements, as stuffng
is so liable to be deranged, and leak under
strong pressure, to say nothing of the loss bv
friction incident thereto. 1t has also two air
chambers: thus the action Of the valve is
cushioned upon both sides by air-prs venting
water-hammer and vacuum thump. Fhe valves
are very accessible, and simply and cheaply
repaired. They work much easier than any
pump We have ever seen; the inch cylinder
being worked by children in wells 100 feet
deep. and as they are extremely cheap as well
as simple and strong, we freely recommend
them.
