Winter Dairying.
Country Gentleman.

The better class of livers in the
United States are beginning to demand
good fresh butter instead OF the salt
ed article which has hither two been
eaten through the winter months.
In consequence, those farmers who
try to please the palate by producing
a sweet, nutty-tasting commodity,
will reap their reward by receiving
o remunerating price. Setting aside
fancy prices it is certain that a good
fair rate will always be paid for butter
which can be demanded upon to come
hand weekly in uniform quality. The
best buttermaker in the United States
fails unless the COWS are fed properly,
therefore there must be right sort of
food. The hay should be made from
grass cut when in blossom, and this
alone wi i do, but some corn meal and
wheat bran will increase the cream
and add to the rich flavor of the but
ter, Also the use of carrots will
cause q greater flow of milk and there
will be then the peculiarly fresh
taste:.which characterizes butter when
COWS are in good pasture in June.
Of course, comfortable stabling,
cleanliness and exercise in sheltered
yard will be requisite for full success.
The COWS should have their calves in
September Or there abouts, and the
heifer calves from all good mixers
should be raised, which can be donf
on the SKINNED milk.
In the autumn there is no forage Oh
food Of any kind better for milcI
COWS as a help to failing pasture
than pumpkins. [ have used then
freely for years with the best results
and find the fear of the seeds al
nonsense. At the present time
have fine lot growing among The
corn and about three acres planted
near the barn, which together will b.
sufficient to last till Christmas, if
can secure q portion of them from
frost. After the pumpkins are gone
carrots are better than any othe1
VI jety of roots, and if fed till grass
comes again there need be no loss O
quality in the butter, The quaint,
Of the milk will be equal to the bes
grass season, and will depend upol
the COWS. Any man having common
sense, and managing properly, cal
obtain s-double the average given b.
COWS of the kind usually me
with, if he will buy good ones an'
and breed from none but deep milk
ers, and from bulls which are from
deep milking strain.

Rainy Days.

The jokes that have been cracked
at the farmer s expense on the en-
ployment of worlmen on rainy days,
says the Golden Rule, are not so very
stale, and are only Objectionable on
the ground that it is mean to joke on
facts The wish of the old lady,
that it might rain nights and Sundays,
so that the hired men could rest, was
q merciful desire. We remember in
our farm days of working for a man
who, if going away for few days,
left orders with the foreman that if
it rained too hard to work in the field
to set the boys cutting bushes. We
have seldom known q farmer who
hired men by the month that did not
have some filthy barn cellar to clean
out, Or tough, knotty wood to be bro
ken to pieces, against rainy day. Now
in nothing does the farmer make a
more losing mistake than in this way
of treating hired men on rainy days.
There are certain chores that are nee
essarilyss delayed for such an occasion,
such as getting the scafolding ready
for the hay, repairing the farm tools
in the workshop-every farmer ought
to have q workshop-setting out
plants, etc. But these may be so
divided as to be only the chores of a
rainy day, for the tired men should
have the larger part of the day to
rest. It will pay in q seasons work
as they will work with a will when
things drive; they viii be better ma
tured, and have respect for the man
who thus treats them, which is no lit
tie thing.
Thon there are what are termed
dull days, when the farmer does not
want to cut grass or hoe, and on sucl
days, there is enough for the hired
men to do, and they should be put,
to work. At this time of the year
one of the most important works for
a dull day is hauling muck into the
barnyard. On almost every farm
may be founda muck bed, but it is of
ten unknown to the farmer. He should
find it out and draw upon it lavishly
as cloudy-day work when oxen anc
men can work easily. Hauling mucl
into the yard for a day, now ant
then, is worth more than the bes
days haying.
Break up the knotty wood in tn
early spring, clear out the baro celia
on clear, cool day; but on rain.
days remember that hired men ar
human.

An Agricultural Creed.

According to the Canada Farmer,
the agriculturists of Canada met in
convention not long ago, and adopted
for themselves the following creed
We believe in small farms and
thorough cultivation; we believe that
the soil lives to eat, as well as the
owner, and ought therefore, to be
we'll MANFRED we believe in going to
the bottom of things, and, therefore,
deep blowing, and enough of it, all
the better if it be sub-soil pillow ;
we believe in large crops which leave
the land better than they found it,
making both the farm and the farmer
rich at once; we believe every farm
should own good farmer; we be-
lieve that the fertilizer of any soil is
a spirit of industry, enterprise and
Intelligence; without these, lime,
gypsum and guano would be OF little
use; we believe in good fences. good
farm-housea, good orchards and good
children enough to gather the fruit
we believe in a clean kitchen, neat
Wiie IN it, clear cupboard, G clear
DAIRY and q clean conscience; we be.
heVe that to ask a mans advice is
not STOPPING but of much benefit We
believe that to keep place for every
thing, and everything in its place
saves many a step, aud is pretty sur,
to lead to good tools and to keeping
them in order; we believe that kind
ness to stock, like good shelter, i
saving of fodder; we believe that i
is good thing to keep an eye on ez
periments, and note all, good an
Dad; we believe that it is good rul
to sell grain when it is ready; we be
lieve in producing the best butter an
cheese, and marketing it when it
ready"

The Industrious Bee.

There are 100000 beehives in the
United States. Every hive yields,
on an average little over twenty-five
pounds of honey, and is sold at
twenty five cents pound. So that af-
ter paying for their own board, our
bees present us with arevenue of ST,
100000. To reckon another way, they
made clear gift of one pound OF
pure honey to every man, woman
and child in the vast domain of the
United States. In 1860, ever a.
333, 342 pounds of wax was made and
given to us by these Industrious
workers. An agricultural exchange
says the keeping of bees is one of the
most profitable investments that
people can make the sales of surplus
honey average from fifty to 200 pei
cent. of the capital invested.
