Hints for the Month.

The winter generally affords some leisure
1 to the farmer The help Of the pact season
1 has been paid of and he is left alone with his
/ family.
The farmer can now take bis ease and en-
| Joy himself. There is short respite from
toll and from care. Such was once the
I pTeve lent notion but things are somewhat
changed in later times.
/ This is the month in which the farmer
must prepare for sugar-msking. Everything
should be put in readiness. Wood should
\ be cut and hauled. The tuts, pals, and
/ boiling pans, should be thoroughly inspected
and put in order, not left 10 the last mo-
ment.
| Now also is the time to remove the rough
bark from fruit trees Don't be afraid CT
| getting down too near the wood, but scrape
deep down near to the inner bark, and thus
destroy those places which afford such ac-
ceptable resorts for insects. This done, wash
the body Of the tree and the larger limbs
with strong sOt-soap suds. Do this when
the weather is moderately warm and the
frost is out Of the tree.
Cut scions for grating, and put them away
afer sorting. reserve none but the best.
W i'll you need any rails for repairing your
old fences next spring? Prepare them now
and draw them whilst you have plenty Of
time, and your teams need exercise.
When the weather is wet and dIsagreeable,
look over your farming implements and put
them in thorough condition for the year s
campaign. Cleanse and oil your harness,
/ ion't fail to have the collars fit every part OF
the shoulders where the draft must come.
Prepare for early hot beds if you have oc-
casiOn for anything of the sort, and if you
have never had one, have one next spring
next month earl y.
Think over your experience In seasons past
and endeavor to recall reasons for failures in
any given direction. Book agriculture is
\ good for nothing, unless accompanied with
/ experience. Try no doubtful experiments.
Leave operations Of that nature for thO-e
having more money than brains

| the year round. if you will, but don t expect
to grow cabbages upon pear trees, nor tur-
nips upon currant bushes.
! Lay out some drains for next season, and
then dig them, if your soil demands thorough
drainage. Don't neglect this. The fbres of
70 cts will not readily penetrate lump Of
/ hard clay, nor is there much within a dis
turbed lump that it can readily assimiate.

you would get returns therefrom. AS well

drawback to going largely into the pear cul'
ture. is the difficulty of keeping them, e.
pecially the late fall and winter varieties, GO
as to avoid the loss of large percentage
We have no faith whatever that the pear
can ever take the place of the apple on the
farm, as a remunerative crop. We have
known farmers to start pear orchards, ou'
fr0m one cause or another they all die out,
and to-day we know not where to IND one on
anv farm within our knowledge.
The peach is less certain TO give regular
and remunerative crops than the pear even
IL holds a very precarious existence IN Ne"
England the time was, and that within our
recollection, when there were thrifty and
productive peach trees on almost all our
farms, as well as in our gardens. But those
days are over. They may come round again,
but none can say when. The plum, too, has
yielded itself martyr to the curcullo and
the black wart, and the cherry shows strong
symptoms Of going the same way. Now
what is to be done by our farmers IN this
state of things? Abandon all hope and all
efforts as to the fruit cultivation? No, by
no means, but rather strengthen the things
that remain strengthen the apple orchsrds
and their productive powers. To these let
them apply all the resources of skill and
good culture, ard make them-as by the
help of good Providence they surely will

which grows on poor soil has not the pow e.
Of storing up latent heat, as II has nothing

plant in very wet ground is incapable OF

marking Of thermometer would indicate
exactly the degree of cold a plant would
stand. 1t was so with animals. But We
DOW know that we often suffer more from
heat when the thermometer Is at IS degrees
than when at 95 degrees, and some will suffer
more 1t one temperature than others will
This is owing to the varying nature of other
elements as well as mere heat, and the vary

WORDS ABOUT CAITLE.-The temperature
of the buildings in which cattle are kept is a
matter of very considerable Importance, and
one to which the ate ntiOn il deserves has
not been generally gwen. 1t seems rather
late in the day to FAY this, after so much has
been written in the pages Of agricultural
journals, and discussed at the meetings OF
farmers clubs, on the SUBJECT of the chem
stry of cattle feeding. Yet it is true, never
theless, that, despite all this, COM aratively
lit le evidence is seen as TO the effect it has
bad in the practice of farmers else, how
comes it that year after year passes over our
heads-the cold of winter comes and goes
agsin-and yet the" old ways are walked
Cattle are subjected TO conditions of atmOs-
pheric inhuenc, which are as costly in their
effects upon the animals as they are indIs-
putably cruel and the lessons of experience
IN the presence OF sickly animals, and of food
consumed for which there has been no ade-
quaie return, are of little weight appar-
emily as those OF theory and sciefce.
Let it be undt rstoUd that the food Of all
animals is made up Of various constituents,
each Of which, or each group of which, per-
forms special functions, one group going to
the maintenance Ct the animal tissues, an
other group going to that Of the animal heat !;
and it will be, or should be, at once observed
that if you subject the animals to conditions
in which certain degree of the temperature
Of their bodies Is withdrawn, you do one OF
two thiDgs-you either must increase the
supply OF food to make up for the heat lost,
or you allow the temperature Of the body to
be reduced and when that ia the case, the
condition Of the animal is no longer that
which 1t ought TO be. We need not 90 10
modern science to tell us this those who
think 20 highly of the wisdom Of our anees-
tors will ind that wisdom embodied in an

a Doc Sr0RY.-A friend Of ours, who
resides IN Boston, some months since
owned nice dog which he valued for his
intelligence and general good behavior.
The dog, however, had q habit of getting
upon the bed, or sofa, or any other clean,
soft place which he could find, without
asking permission. or even stopping to
wipe his feet The dirtier be was. the
more he seemed to enjoy nap on a white
bed-spread. As our friend did not fancy
this sort of thing he dispos ed of the dog TO
a gentleman residing in Peabody, who set
him to watch his stable and orchard
One day the dog found a man abstracting
fruits from the gard en-, whereupon he
seized him by the hand and led him 10 the
gate where he dismissed him with a warn
ing growl With all his good qualities
the dog still retained his old habit of re-
to sleep IN, and he seemed TO take pleas
ure in rolling in mud-puddle and after
ward wiping his soiled coat on the parlor
carpet THIS a. last became uneadurable,
ana the gentleman, 10 get rid of the dog,
gave him TO one of his workmen. who re-
sided few miles from Peabody,on the line
the railroad. The animal soon became
attached TO his new master, and would
follow him from his house TO the factory
in which he was employed, being allowed
to stow himself under a car seat, where
be would lie very quietly. One day the
man eft his work earlier than usual, and
went without his canine friend. At the
usual hour, the dog missing his master,
repaired to the station and entered car
as he had been in the habit doing See
ing that he was alone, the conductor
caused the dog to be put of the train,
which was then started. The dog, ap-
parently COMPOUNDED by this unusual treat
ment, hesitated for moment, and then
bounded away after the train, which be
soon overlook, and leaping upon the plat
form Of the rear car, laid himself down
with a satisfied air, and this time was al
lowed to remain. Our friend vouches for
the truth Of this story. which we think
worth printing. If any one can tell a
better, We will print that also.-Ls7au
