Farm Work for january.

Farm work for this month will not be un-
like that of most of the winter season There
Is fuel to cut and haul from the woods and
the sooner it is gathered, split and piled IN
der cover the better it will burn when want
ed. Pick up the dead stuff lying about the
farm and in the woods. 1t will make good
fire wood if put under cover, and will save
the better for market or for timber. A crook
ed stick makes just as straight ashes as any.
Don't neglect the cattle these cold days. If
there is board loose on the stable, or the
cracks are wide, drive a nail or put on bat
ten to keep out the cold and snow. Farming
cdHTsot pay when all the heart from the fuel
is required in keeping the animal from freez-
ing. Pine boards are cheaper than English
hay to keep out the cold. Warm the swill
for the pigs so they can eat it before it freez-
es. Hogs need TO be kept warm, clean and
dry Just as much as other animals. They can
never thrive when compelled to eat frozen
swill and lie in snow banks or cold mud
Harness the horses at least two or three
times every week. A little exercise will do
them as much good as it will YOU. Many
horses are spoiled on farms by standing in
the stable all winter idle. If they get little
antic in the winter, take them out for a drive
to that friend you have talked so long of Wis
iting Now is just the time to look over the
farming tools and get those repaired that
need it. Some farmers think the winter is
good time for repairing buildings and for
building anew. There is more leisure now,
and carpenters are less in demand. 1t is GER
tainly good time to paint buildings during
the mild days of winter There are no flies
now to trouble, and the paint will harden
well and last longer than if spread during the
hottest weather of summer. The enterpris-
ing and industrious farmer will find enough
to do even in winter to keep from rusting.

PARLoR CULTUBE OF IvY.-In a late num-
Der of the Garden, Mr. j. McNab, Of the
Royal Botanic Gardens Edinburgh, gives
the following directions for the vase culture
of ivy in moss and water for drawing-room
purposes:
The ivy should be grown in long Opaque
glass jars and vases. and it is essential that
such vessels should be wide at the top so
that the plants, after being properly rooted,
can be taken out, and the jars cleansed when
necessary. In the selection Of ivy for vase
culture, long pieces with small leaves are to
be recommended those taken from the 81 ms
of the trees where the points are inclined TO
be pendent, will be found to answer best.
such ivy having generally stout stalks covered
with Wril roots Each vase. according to
its size, should contain three. four or five
pieces, each piece being rolled up separately
in a small portion Of hypnum or sphagnum
moss, the latter being preferable.
after this, tie all the pieces loosely to-
gethtr in a clump to suit the width Of the
vase. and place them in it so that the ball Of
moss does not reach within five or six inches
OF the bottom. 1t will be necessary to keep
the water in the vase about half way up the
moss till the cuttings are properly rooted.
From the moss the roots will extend into the
water below. ard it will be found that these
roots produced in the moss and water will he
quite sufficient TO nourish the plants. Cut
ting plants whose roots have been produced
IN soil. if lifted and placed in vases will ulti-
mately do well. but the probability is that
the roots will die and the plants for a time
sicken until new fbres are formed capable Of
enduring moss and water culture. After the
ivy is properly rooted the glass jars may be
kept full of water, and sprigs of flowers may
also be inserted in them. The water and
flowers may be changed when necessary, and
even the ivy, whose roots ought now TO be
solid mass, may also be taken and replaced at
pleasure, without injury"

PRUNING FOEEsr TGRRs.-A. J. Burrowes,
in journal of Forestry, says that pruning
though it may lessen the actual produce of
wood, increases the more valuable dimen-
sions of timber, by directing the energies of
the roots. etc., to its formation. 2. 1t en-
ables us to produce the largest crop of tim
Der upon the smallest area. 3. 1t lessons
the effects of shade, both upon the under
wood and upon other crops. 1. BY admit
ting freer and better circulation of air
among the boles it checks the growth of
MOSES and lichens. .. 1t gives greater
lengths to the trunks and produces timber
of better quality and of a cleaner grain
6. The iudicieus pruning of side branches
prevents stag headedness, with its attendant
evil of decay extending down the trunk T.
Pruning prevents accidents from the brows-
ing of cattle, from winds~and falls OF snow
as well as from excessive weight Of foliage
s. The foreshortening of the lower branches
directs more sap TO the head thereby main
tanning the vigor of the tree. O. II permits
the growth of underwood close up TO the
boles. 10. By timely pruning an equal
quantity of good timber can be grown in
about two-thirds the usual time. IL. A time
ly tightening of the head, or such pruning
as will enable it TO maintain its equilibrium,
prevents shakes. 10. Upon coniferous trees
the pruning back of dead and dying side
branches gives soundness and freedom from
all knots to all succeeding annual growths of
the wood. 10. The close and continuous
pruning of elms imparts TO the timber that
guarded character which, by preventing split
ting, makes it so valuable for the nRves of
wheels and other purposes. 10. careful
thinning or pruning Of underwood stools in
creases the general weight as well as the val
ne Of their produce.

The humidity or dryness Of the atmos.
phore has much influence on the keeping OF
meat Jcrked beef is prepared by cutting the
meat into thin strips, and drying in the Dir.
In some climates it is a success.
In our attempts to keep meats fresh, we
should avail ourselves Of all favorable condi-
tious to secure our object and avoid those
that are unfavorable We have spoken before
Of scalding the surface Of raw meat to help
its keeping. Thorough scalding, clear
through will give a new lease Of life to meat
that has been cooked. This may be repeated
If it is desirable to keep it a long time, but
you cannot thus well reach the centre Of a
large joint You must cut it up, and this
must be done before any faint appears. In
extreme cases, where meat has begun to faint,
it may be restored by boiling with pieces Of
fresh burned charcoal tied up in a bag; but
it is better to avoid this necessity.
sAUsAGEs.
Sausages should be made of due proper
tons of the firm parts of the fat pork and Of
the lean that is free from tendons, and
stringy, skinny, bloody portions Good meat
alone is used in Burnett's celebrated sausages
and in the best households what may be the
constituents Of the commercial article we can
not tell. Here we may truly say, IF ignor-
ance Is bliss, tbs FOLLY TO be wise Sausage
meat, after il is chopped fine, should be sea
soned with salt, half an ounce to the pound
of meat and black pepper to the taste Some
add sage or summer-savory, but these season
ings render them more difficult Of digestion.
We have tried preserving the sausage meat in
skins, in cloth bags about four inches in di-
ameter, also packed in common tin pans and
covered with melted lard. The meat is cut
in slices for cooking. We give the preference
to the last method Sausage packed in skins
may be bept long time by partial cooking
and packing in melted lard Indeed, ham is
sometimes sliced, partly cooked and kept in
lard
Canned meat, fish etc. are thoroughly
cooked in tin cans and sealed up while hot
The contents Of the cans contract on cooling
and the settling in of the ends indicates that
the work is perfect the cans are air-ught and
the preservation in this shape proves that 10
decomposition has taken place.
