Johnson, E. Montholy gomery, sec'y. From the American Agriculturist, February--Hints Abont Work. In modern farming there can not. be fuir profit upon the capital invested, 1111 less there in skillful management, and such a forecast of business as will make it necessary.
to pursue 2 certain steady course of cropping. This comes from the nocessitle: of the case. Corn and grass, wheat, burley, route or oats, follow each other on a well ordered farm, or all is disorder and confusion. But, unfortunately, all farms are not well there is a pressing need which actually prevents order on some farms, just a8 poverty forces makeshifts in some households. Something like this obliges the planter to grow cotton year after year, when he knows he is losing money by it.
ITe loses les by making a crop than by Jetting his fields go untilled, and he plants again, hoping against hope for a change in the market, which will bring Him profit. But this method can not last always. Like growing wheat every year alter year, in California, it must stop vote day, just as the continuous growing of wheat in the Genessee valley came to an end. What is to be done? It is diflicult to answer. If there were such a thorough organization among farmers, as there is of coal miners or cotton spinners, partienlar products might be reduced in quantity, to relieve the overstocked markets, which now can take neither our cotton nor our wheat at paying prices.
A farmer can not, like a factory or a coal wire, run on "short time," but he can do what amounts to the same thing, he can on short acres; he can plant and sow lea, by spending and producing less, gels as much money for leas produce. lie will thus gain at one end what he could not reach at the other. That some such arrangement or combination is needed, the present condition of the two greatest markets in the world, those of cotton and wheat, show most conclusively. 'The prospects for the wheat crop are very donbund at the present time. The Jatual advices 1 from England report 30 per cent.
less wheat in the market than last year. with only 44 per cout. increase in price, and rates are still on the decline. If it were not that a large portion of our wheat has been held baek, prices would have been much lower. What shall the grower of spring wheat do in this care? The Minnesota, lowa, or Nebraska farmer must grow spring wheat or stop business, in the market for barley, oats and corn is us easily overstocked as that for wheat.
This is the misfortune of his position as a purvegor to a foreign nation, which may not want his goods, and as a farmer in state where almost every other man is a farmer, and where there are few or no manufacturing towns, in which he can find 2 home market. To remedy this, time, and the growth of other industries are needed. We Cith see no other help for it. Where corn can be grown readily and turned into pork for exportation, the experience of the past two years has been in favor of this crop. There is enough of out door work to keep farmers busy everywhere.
Gathering materials for manure, making composts of coarse materials, with cotton seed and superphosphates for corn and cottom top dressing grass fields and for encouraaging the growth of native pastures, plowing, fencing, and cleaning out water will employ southern farmers. At the north there is firewood to cut and haul, rails to split, fence posts to hew and bore, ice to cat and put away, the smoke houze to look to, manure to turn over and many other things to be done, that will make a quiet evening's rest over an instructive book or paper, very acceptable. Every Sarin has its special needs that require providing for, and when the February snowa and sleets make out door work impossible, but few hours need be wasted in doo1s. There is as much need to keep roads in good repair during the snowy season, as in summer. Bare spots that are swept by the wind, should be packed over when the sun is warm and the snow Jt may then be beaten down 80 that will not drift away.
"Cradle holes," the "thank'ee marms" of New England, may be repaired by laying brush across the hollow, and covering it with snow, which should be well trampled down. Where the roads are mnddy, the best way is to temporarily repair them by filling the holes with brush, or by laying brush across the soft spota. It is useless to repair roads with earth or stone while they, are wet. Osca should be well fed and well carden every day, to bring them into good condition for spring work. A weak ammal will soon give out under the first hot Fans of apring.
Work the bulls. A bull may be made to at least carn his feed. He will be more tractable and more trustworthy for it. Several plans for working bulls have been given from time to time, A ball had better do much of the hauling and odd jobs of the farm, than to be tied up to fret and become savage. In-coming cows should be treated with great care.
The dry feed will have rendered then very liable to inflammatory disease. Garget, milk fever, abortion, and such troubles, affect well fed cows more than others. The blood needs cooling by laxative tood. One quart ot oil cake meal, mixed with bran scalded, and given as a drink once day, will be No corn should be given for several weeks before calving. Bran or middlings will he more cooling and healthful, but af good hay is given, very little grain of any kind will be needed.
Caution now will prevent trouble hereafter. When the calf is expected, the cow should be turned into a loose stall, or into a quiet stable alone. If cuts are found upon sharp shod hor- see, about the feet or pasterna, wash the! wounds with warm soap and water, and then apply a pinch of salt, or a little compound tincture of benzoin, which will chose them to heal rapidly. Neglect this precaution may cause 14 01 some other tronble, which wilt laeak out by and by when the horse. in needed spring work.
Sharp shod horses should not be permitterl to play together the rard, or with other animals. A kick from playful horse may cause serious damage. Colte and yearlings should be tiedin their stalls and taught proper discipline. They should be handled gently, and well and regularly fed. Give young stock of all kinds the best of food.
When rough, shreddy wool appears sheep fleeces, or the wool drops off in locks, the sheep are not healthy, or the food has been too dry and heating. Stop the corn meal, and give some linseed oilcake meal; a few potatoes will be useful if roots are not to be had. Give salt irequently and freely. Keep purring- ewes by themselves, and give scalded bran or oatmeal daily. Sugar beets, or potatues, sliced and sprinkled with a quart of middlings or bran, for each ewe, will produce abundant and rich milk.
Keep lambs where they will have plenty of sunshine. Pick off' ticks by hand; this may be done very rapidly by using a pair of small, sharp pointed scissors; part the wool, aad when a tick is found clip it in two. Sows may now be turned to the boar for pigs in June. Sows expected to pig soon should have warin pens, with cut straw or chaff' for bedding. Rails fixed around the bottom of the pen, six inches above the floor, and the same from the wall, will pretect the young pigs from being crushed.
In the south pigs need no more shelter than a rough roof in a wood lot. There is no better place for pigs than a small piece of woods well fenced, where they may run and make their own beds of leaves or earth. Straw beds, and especially, a bed of manure, will cause irritation of the skin, if not skin diseases, and encourage parasites. The small things which need attention now, become numerous and pressing. The first thing that should he done, it has not already been done, is to procure an account-book, and begin to keep accounts with the crops and stock.
Another very important thing is to renew the subscription to the paper, whether it be the American Agriculturist or any other. The small amount of money required for this can not be so well laid out in any other manner. The wagons and carts need repairing and painting; the plows to be overhauled; harrow teeth pointed seed to be selected and procured; harness to be repaired and cleaned; the threshing machine and horse power to be cleaned and oiled, and many other small but really important matters, will now need attention. These should be looked for with a sharp eye, "and when found, make it note of," or let them be attended to al once. WORK IN HORTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT.
Advantage must be taken of all mild winter days to forward the spring work as rapidly as possible. There are always some little jobs which, unless done now, will be left undone in the hurry ot spring work. Have everything around the house and out buildings kept in a neat and orderly manner, and all rubbish removed whenever the ground is clear of snow. Provide absorbents for the manure from the stables and hennery, and see that the manure is kept both from overheating and from freezing. ORCHARD AND NURSERY.
The full notes given under this head last month will be in season now. During the mild days of the present month, the canker worms may make their appearance. The females cannot fly, but must crawl up the trunks. Their ascent is best preyented by the use of strips of paper conted with tar or printers' ink, and placed around the trunks; the tar or ink must be removed whenever it becomes dry, or the dead insects bridge it over. Tent caterpillars' eggs may be deposited in little rings near the ends of the twigs and are readily scen.
A few hours or days even, spent in gathering and burning these eggs now, will save a great deal of labor in killing the caterpillars after they are hatched. In planting new orchards for profit, select such varieties as are in demand, or if for family use, such as will give a good succession from early summer to late winter. Order trees for spring planting at once. If trees arrive in a frozen condition, put them in a cool place until thawed. Cut scions at any time in mild weather, label and bury in sawdust, sand or in the earth.
FRUIT GARDEN. Make use of mild days for pruning grape vines which were left during the hurry of tail work, and apply ashes or ground bones between the rows. Save the wood for cuttings. The present month is a good time to prune such trees as need it, as the shave and general direction of the branches is readily seen, now that the leaves are off. Where the branches touch, and the bark is injured by rubbing, one of the branches should be cut out, or the two may be spread apart and tied so they will not interfere.
Have ready all articles needed for grafting in the spring. Strips of calico or muslin loosely rolled upon a stick and dipped in melted grafting wax are the mort convenient forms in which to use the wax. Prune currants and gooseberries any time before the leaves swell. KITCHEN GARDEN. Ent little can be done out of doors in the northern states at this season; see that everything is put in readiness for immediate use when wanted.
All seeds which have to be bought should be ordered now. Those saved on the place should be sifted or otherwise cleaned. Ail old and doubtful seeds, especially those of parsnip, carrot, onion, and such as cannot be relied upon after the first year, should be burned. Have every parcel labelled. Novelties are offered every year; these generally come with the claims of the Enropean dealers that they are superior to the old stand sorts, but 9 out of 10 of them are seldom heard of after the first season.
The time to start hot beds will depend upon the locality. Next month will be early enough north of Virginia. Six weeks before it will be safe. to set out the plants, is the proper time. Store the horse manure where it will not get- too wet, and turn occasionally.
Remove celd frame sashes entirely on mild days, and on cool days raise them at the back. Keep the plants in them as dormant as possible. The past two months were very bad for preserving vegetables, as the weather was so warm that eyen with the doors and windows open, it has been scarcely possible to keep them from growing. When the doors are open, see that the roots are well covered to keep them from drying Chicago Advertisem*nts. T.
