AGRICULTURAL HINTS.
YARDS AND GARDENS.

Plans That May BE Adopted by Country
Residents Generally.
Some of the leading points to be OBJ
served are the following: l. Make as
few foot walks and carriage ways as
may accord with proper convenience,
as keeping them in neat order will be
a source of expense. 2. Devote at
least a quarter of an acre to lawn,
and rather more as may be practicable.
This should be made smooth, so as to
be easily and cheaply cut once week
with the hand lawn-mower. 3. Let the
paths from the house to the barn and
to places about the barn be made OF
such materials as will never become
muddy. 4. Let the vegetable garden
be near the dwelling, and be so
arranged that it may be wholly Guilt
waited with a horse. 5. Keep every
thing in neat condition, and avoid all
appearance of waste, confusion, and
slipshod management; and if this care

is continuously practiced, it will be-
come a fixed habit more easily main
tanned than by allowing everything to
run to disorder.
A few examples where these rules
are variously carried out may afford
some useful suggestions to owners OF
farms in moderate circumstances who
ore about laying out their home
grounds, or who may wish to make
some improvements on those already
arranged. There are many farms placed
on one side of a public highway, with
dwellings and farm building easily ac-
cessible from it. Fig. represents such
place conveniently arranged as sug-
gested. The dwelling is about eight
rods from the public road, and is
reached by the foot-path on the left,
and by the carriageway on the right:
and to economic space, and to take adj
vantage of the farm road, curve car
rage road leaves the farm road. turns
up to the side entrance and passes on
again into this road. This arrangement
obviates the necessity of passing every
loaded team close in front of the dwell
ling. The barn and carriage-house are
easily reached by this farm road. The
position of the orchard, fruit garden
and vegetable garden requires no eX-
PLANTATION. The vegetables are planted in
rows or drills so as to be entirely Guilt

occupy the ground with annual crops.

the necessity for feeding condiments is
largely avoided.
