THE; FARM & HOUSEHOLD,
General Work for March.
Buildings may be repaired and
painted, inside and out. As soon as
settled spiing weather comes, set
fences, and repair them wherever
needed. Pick up stones loosened by
the frost; blast and haul off or bury
large ones out of the way of the
plow. Plow as soon as the ground
is dry. Sow spring grass as soon as
it is warm. Put in a crop of peas,
or peas and oats. Peas alone, in
drills, on good soil, will be off in time
to plow for wheat or turnips to follow.
But biennial weeds, docks, thistles,
etc. Grub up fence rows and corners
where shrubs and briers have got a
start.
Harrowing and rolling meadows
and winter wheat, as soon as the
frost is out, is an operation which
pays. The ordinary loDg toothed
harrow should not be ued, but a har
row for this especial purpose, with a
large number of short, fine teeth. The
roots of grains and grasses are raised
to the surface by the constant and
severe freezings of winter, and by
passing the roller over the field in
the spring, the roots are pressed into
the soil, so that they can at once take
hold and grow. It is frequently the
cise that the use of the roller in
wheat fields and meadows in the
spring will apparently double the
number of the plants.
Increase the feed and exercise of
farm horses, and groom well, to pre
pare them for hard spring work.
Keep all horses, but especially mares
with foal, sharp shod for fear of slip
ping on patches of ice. Turn unused
horses loose an hour or two daily,
one at a time, lest in play they kick
each other'. Groom oxen and cows
and feed well, to prepare the oxen
lor work. Do not task them too
heavily at first; if unused during the
winter their necks and feet will be
tender. Look to cows at calving
time, giving personal attention and
aid if required. Feed some roots
daily, both before and after calving.
Remove the calf at once if it is to be
taken away, and milk the cow dry;
otherwise let the cow lick the calf
clean, allow it to suck, and then milk
the cow dry at once. See that all
cows are milked dry, twice a day, and
it is best to milk young cows three
times a day; it increases the tenden
cy to secrete milk. Increase the
amount of meal to fattening animals,
that they may ripen up the faster as
soon as they get grass. Throw sods
every few days to the hogs and poul
try if confined. Keep sows with
young pigs warmly sheltered. Iso
late breeding sows in warm, well
etrawed pens. Feed raw potatoes
or other roots, sprinkled with a little
meal, daily, to counteract any ten
dency to constipation. Charcoal
dust promotes digestion, provide
abundant water and salt for all ani
mals, and watch the health of all, re
moving those that are anyways ailing
to comfortable but isolated quarters.
If short of fodder, make it up by
cutting and cooking what you have
with roots and grain.
Bermuda Brass.
This grass is one of most easily
grown, and furnishes the best pastu
rage for sheep or cattle. The im
pression prevails, that it will take en
tire possession of the soil, and can
not be eradicated. This is a great
mistake. The grass once planted
will extend over the entire surface in
a very short space of time, from a
few roots. The roots run down
deeply into the soil, and the grass is
not propagated from the roots, but
from the eyes of the grass, which
eyes are similar to those of cane It
sprouts from the eyes, which are
found in the stubble lying near the
surface.
When desirous of destroying the
grass, it is only necessary to graze
the land. The trampling of the ani
mals prevents the runners of extend
ing, and gradually destroys the eyes.
When about to prepare the land
for a crop, it should bo turned over
with a two horse Brinley, or some
other light plow, in the month of
August, and allowed to remain for
three days exposed to the sum, then
thoroughly harrowed with a two
horse iron tooth harrow, which thor
oughly cuts the turf. When har
rowed; it should be piled up in
the field, and hauled out, or burnt
when dry. The harrowing should be
continued till the land becomes thor
oughly pulverized. When thus pre
pared, it is in the best possible con
dition for a wheat crop.
The above plan has been thor
oughly tested by Mr. C. L. Few, of
Oconee County, one of Georgia’s
most enterprising farmers.
Things Worth Knowing.
Borax will soften the hardest wa
ter. Use a teaspoonful of the pow
dered borax to a quart of water,
to keep flowers from withering, drop
a few grains of salt in the water in
which they are kept, and they will
remain bright and fresh-looking for
some time.
A strong solution of carbolic acid
and water, poured into holes, kills
all the ants it touches, and the sur
vivors take themselves off.
To clean shells, make lye by boil
ing strong ashes, and allow it to set
tle; pour the lye over the shells, and
boil them six or seven hours,or longer
if they are large; then soak and wash
them in fresh water.
Note paper may be effectually
scented by keeping in your desk,
among the paper, a sachet of the
scent preferred—musk, violet, etc.
If the paper be not too dry, it will
readily take the scent, and retain it
a long time.
To cleanse and bleach ladies’ straw
hats, wash them in pure water,
scrubbing frhem with a brush. Then
put them in a box in which has been
set a saucer of burning sulphur.
Cover them up so that the fumes may
bleach them.
A tablespoonful of black pepper
put in the water in which gray and
buff linens are washed, will keep
thtm from spotting. It will also
generally keep the colors of black or
colored cambrics or muslins from
running, and does not harden the
water.
For chapped hands and lips, cracks
and skin diseases, use the following:
Spermaceti ten drachms, white wax
one drachm, oil of almonds two fluid
ounces; add to this four drachms of
glycerine, in which three drops oil of
roses have been mixed; stir constant
ly until cold.
