FALL PLOUGHING.

There are several things to be gained
by ploughing in the fall. The first is
getting the work done when there is
plenty of time to do it in, and by so
doing much abridge the labor of another
spring when time is of the greatest con-
sequence and few days may make
much difference in the sowing OF plant
ing for crop; secondly. as most farm
ers now draw as much as possible of
their manures in winter, or when there
is snow on the ground, upon the fields
where wanted, it is much better to have
the ground ploughed previously, as by
so doing considerable inconvenience will
be avoided. Some land is particularly
benefited by ploughing in the fall, for
instance, such as is of clayey texture,
the storms and frosts of winter helping
to disintegrate and make finer and mel
lower By ploughing late also, just
before the ground freezes. it may assist
III the destruction of insects. The pres
ent autumn has been so dry as in a
great measure to prevent ploughing, or
to render the work harder to be per-
formed. Every farmer should know
how to plough, himself and his sons
should be taught this most important
work, that they may know how to do il
themselves or to exercise a proper over.
sight when done by others. There i.
no work We like to see better done thar
ploughing' A field with straight, ever
burrows, well turned and free from
Irregularities, is pleasant to behold anc
a credit to the owner. But in order t.
do this work right on very many farms
much previous labor has to be expended
to remove the stones which are an OBJ
struction to good plOughing. AS far al
possible this should be done. as 1t is ;
permanent improvement of itself, will
save much time in ploughing and cult

NOTES FOR THE SEASON.

Apples are cheap and sweet ones are
delicious If picked. Ny rule for sweet
pickles is: Nine pounds of fruit, three
pounds of sugar, one pint of best cider
vinegar and one ounce each of cloves
and cinnamon. For crab apples and
pears it is necessary to add rather more
to this amount of fruit, in order to make
them sufficiently juicy. To pickle
peaches l place them in pan and pour
over them the sugar and vinegar boiling
hot; this shrinks the fruit and draws
out the juices. After turning off and
heating three times it will cover the
peaches; they are then taken out few
at time and cooked over the fire, great
care being exercised that the skin re-
mains unbroken. For nearly all sweet
pickles l sew the spices in thin muslin
sack and boil this with the fruit. Thus
treated the flavor permcates the entire
mass. In picking sweet apples few
sliced lemons should be added.
Citron and watermelon rind make
excellent preserves. This is good
rule: Cut in pieces an inch square, boil
in water until readily pierced with a
fibre of broom corn then drain off the
water. To each five pounds of citron
add five pounds of sugar, one pound of
raisins, and sliced lemon, half an ounce
of whole cloves, one ounce of stick Gin
namon. Dissolve the sugar in little
water and when hot add the fruit and
simmer slowly two hours. For tomato
preserve the yellow plum tomatoes are
the best !; stew them with three-fourths
their weight in sugar and few sliced
lemons.
Ripe tomato pickle is made by stick
ing a few cloves in the fruit and GOV
ering with vinegar; it will keep end
lessly. will give my rule for greer
tomato pickle: Scald the fruit In no
water until easily pierced with fork
slice half an inch thick and lay in jar
sprinkle over this layer of brown suga
half an inch thick and little grount
cinnamon and cloves. Repeat this pro
cess until the jar is full and cover witt
vinegar. Also for tomato catsup: Wash
boil and strain, and to each quart 0
pulp add one tablespoonful each of blacl
pepper, cinnamon and mustard, half
teaspoon each of cayenne pepper an
salt and half nutmeg. Boil two hour
, and to each quart add one pint of eide
