Prepare for Spring.

at this, the winter season of the year,
much can be done toward helping on
the labor that will food the farmer and
gardener in the spring. Many pleasant
days will shine out through the face of
old winter, and during such times fences
can be repaired, buildings altered and
fixed up; the manure and compost heap
added to; trees, vines and plants trim
med, mulched and cleaned out gener.
ally; stakes for vines and raspberries
got out and hauled and painted and put
under shelter. In fact, the farmer and
gardener need hardly be idle single
day; and the long nights are sufficient
for reading and recreation. Every far.
ner and gardener should have work
shop with stove in it, and loft over
head, where he can put timber To sea-
son, which is suitable 10 make swivil
and double trees, hoe, rake, spade and
fork handles, ETC., etc. He should have a
tool-chest with the ordinary tools for
such work, such az drawing knife, hate.
het, chisels, augers, brace and bits,
saws, mallet, etc, and have supply Of
bolts and taps, nails and other things
which may be needed from time TO time
on a farm. Such workshop would af-
ford n comfortable and inviting retreat
for the farmer and gardener and their
boys; and no matter how cold or wet,
no matter how Gercely the storm RACES
without, all would be snug and safe, and
much could be done toward helping on
the press Of work when active opera
tons come on in the busy days OF spring.
Besides this, it would afford pleasant

The Gust m INDUCED in by many farm
crs and their sons of visiting the mills,

season, and spending many valuable
hours, both day and night, is, to say the

maxim which cannot be too often urged
upon all Let it become dearer to every

than any other place on earth. In adj

be by themselves; provide good books
and papers, such as the Country Gentle

works on farming and stock, poultry,
sheep, hogs, horses, cattle, etc, and some
good paper on the stirring events of the

The superior organization and great extent OF the

making originating in this country In Europe, only
those finally adopted which testing by the
most sklful artisans in our works, and long use on
the part of the public demonstrated to be essential to

Among the many improvements We would porticu-
larize:

breakage of man-springs, is original with the Amer-
