lie Kiiro to liriii; your stock wiiliin the
limits of your fodder. Do net commence

Hi'iiKiin to help you lliloii'.'h. To m oid
this, you limy do mime of tho follow in-r
things: 1. Si-ll or kill till you art sure
that your supply of food is sullit-iciit for
your stock. 2. ruy ,rr;iiu or hiiy, to meet
tho demand. :. )riu your .stork to (lis
tricts where fooil in plenty. The last
cour.-e is tho host, where your Mock is
strong and you do not have to drive too
far, if you can irel the animal Kept by a
fuithful man.
A Amiti Amu r Schools. H.nu a
good school at home thnt is in yotir own
neighborhood, for four or five months
this winter. In Northern Ohio, wo suit
pest that it woiilj he Ix-lter, if you can, 'to
have your winter bchdols continue till
ahout the first of April. Our reason for
this is, that spriti"; work does not fairly
hegin till after that time, and November
is a belief mouth for out-of-door work
than March. For n five months' school
from the middle of November to the mid
dle of April, is as good a time as any in
the year.

Shall the coiin'mr of Innjr evenings be
made to tell on the interests of farming in
your neighborhood ? Are you going to
get up a Farmers' Club, to' discuss "'the
ipiestions pertaining to your business ?
Will you lay in company with your neigh
Urf, some fifteen or twenty dollars" in
books and pamphlets of the best kinds,
that will furnish all the young people with
needed information? We think wit hear
you saying " Yes, all these matters aie
under way, and we w ill report progress."
Agricultural Machines and their
.Mniiiifai'tiu-c.
Within the past few years the manu
facture of agricultural machines has be
come quite a business in the West, and
as the demand is always increasing for
articles of this kind, we may expect that
manufactories will increase in the simo
ratio. We often hear our farmers, who
use these implements complain that many
of them ure very poorly made. That they
look very well at first, but in a short time
give out, become deranged, or break down,
with even a common amount of use. Tho
manufacturers of course get all the blame,
and there i no doubt that n jretly good
share of it Monirs to ;it leiist .-iVnt .-.e
them. Yet the fanner is uU in error to j
n considerable extent, as it is the practice I
to purchase the cheapest articles of the I
fl.kairA.t ..... ...!.K 1.-..I . I
.......... i,,, una ,-ry lime regam as
to who is the maker. Now this is wrong.
It is necessary that u higher price be de
manded mid paid for a well linished ma
chine than for one put together in a rude
mnvorkroarilike manner, whose only claim
to notice consists in the paint and varnish
with which it is covered. Th.'re is also
a great dilieieu.e in the i;mlity of the
material of which such implements are
made. Where wrought iron is us. d, there
is to the nmnufacturor a tyreat difference
in the cost of the severul kinds ; " com
mon," much of which w ill I reak with a
very slight ttrain, costs a gcd deal less
than "cable," and still less than ' char
coal." The last mentioned mialin- l
the strongest of all. And in cast iron
there is also a great contrast. Scrup osts I
but little, atid
but the castings produced from burnt stove
ptates and such like scraps have got pre
cious little tenacity, and along with their
hardness they are almost as brittle a,
crockery ; while " hanging rock," Scotch
pijj, and even the common qualities of
American pig, cost a great deal more.
Fart of the latter is of course used, but
too often in less proportion than should be.
Hut could a higher price be obtained by
the manufacturer lie would put in iH-t'.er
material, because ho could ail'urd it.

This i if course cannot be had. Some
oihi-r person must therefore do thi put

heavy item of expense, and ought to be if

cf .such article should bear in mind, that
the less complex a machine is, the more
valuable it is, all oilier things being equal.
We may return to this subject at some

that these few hints will produce a good

miiiMiit. This is a fact whiih the best botanists
describe as a fixed one. Take a plant
which has produced n " sport" or monstrous
deviation from its normal form, l'ropa
gati'froin the stem on which the "sport"'
grew, and the scion will produce the same.
In this way some new varieties of flowers
are added to the supply wo already have.
.More w ill be added hereafter in the same
way.
In ms. Strawberries may yet be
planted on favorable soil. IJa-pl errry
plantations may be made this month. Dig
all potatoes and fall root crops and have
them .stowed where they will be warm
enough, but not so as to'sweat. Horse
radish may be taken up and replanted.
The larger roots may be laid aside for
use. They may be kept as your ether
roots are. Now is the time for planting
deciduous trees. While the dry weather
lasts, tins may lie done. J.vergreens
should be left till spring.
I!l r.KiiiM; Theis to make them bear,
consists in cutting the bark up and down
the tree, from the limbs to the ground,
about the lin-t of May. The bark should
le cut entirely through, lint the wood
should not be ie;ietraied with the knife.
The advantages claimed for this operation
ure these: 1st. It promotes rapid growth.
'Jnd. It brings trees into bearing sooner.
ld. It niils tho.-.e trees whose outside bark
is hard and unyielding. Stone-f;ui;ed
trees are not injured, it is said, l y this
operation.
