Land Mpasure. —One acre is com
prised in 208£ feet squnre; Ln.lt an
acre in 147i feet square ; fourth of an
acre in To? feat square. By observ
ing this rule, one can set off any of
these quantities of ground accurately
with but little trouble.
Feeding Poultry.— Professor Gre
gory of Aberdeen said in a letter to
a triend: “As I suppose you keep
poultry, I may tell you that it lias
been ascertained that it you mix with
their food a sufficient quantity of egg
shells or chalk, which they eat greed
ily, they will lay twice or thrice as
many eggs as before. A veil fed
fowl is disposed to lay a largo num
ber of eggs, but cannot do so with
out the material of the shells, how
over nourishing in other respects the
food may be. Indeed a fowl fed on
food and water, free from carbonate
of lime, and not finding any in the
soil, or in the shape of mortar, which
they often eat on the walls, would
lay no eggs at all, with the best will
in the world.
(Note. — Carbonate of lime is found
in the form of limestone-, marble,
marl, chalk, and in the form of white
and beautiful icicles in caves. When
these are burned they become the
common lime of commerce.)
Pasture Lands in rtfv. South.—
First drain if too wet. Give the land
a dossing of from 1 2 to 15 hundred
pounds of ground bones It is said
that in England such a dressing as
this once in seven years is sufficient
and that it makes one acre supply a
cow during a who'o summer. Our
climate being warmer, and summer
longer we. should think that a dress
ing once in five years would be bet
ter than in seven. When our far
mers turn their attention more to
raising cattle and improving their
pasture lands this mailer will be bet
ter understood
Cum: For; He avis in Houses. —It
is difficult to make a thorough cure
of this disease. It is something like
a consumption. The following is
paid to he a certain enre. There can
be no harm in trying it. “To three
Quarts of sweet milk add a tcaspoon-
Ful of eg'puric acid, and mix with
the horse's food. Give at first three
times a week, afterwards once or
twice, as there may seem occasion,
for a week longer.
AnotilEU Remedy. —One who had
experience in the treatment of dis
eases of horses says: Well cured
corn stalks, cut before frost, are the
best fodder for horses that have the
heaves. Casas, taken in time, have
been ultimately cured by constantly
feeding on them. Hay cut fine, and
wet before feeding, will great y al
leviate all symptoms of heaves; and
even in old and incurab'c cases, the
disease will be often snspended while
horses are ti ns fed.
TniNiF'.—ln seven or eight weeks
(he time will he at hand to sow tur
nip seed. Poor turnips and failures,
are generally owing to three causes,
excluding the depredations of insects.
First, bad seed ; second, insufficient
manuring; third inadequate prepara
tion of the land.
No land is better for turnips than
a lich cowpen. Put all the cattle in
it and it M ould not be amiss to pen
the sheep with them. AY hen the
ground is pretty well covered with
the excrement plow and cross plow
it. Still keep the cattle in the pen
for a few weeks longer. (This would
not be necessary if the cattle had
tread the land for a long time.) Plow 1
and cross plow a second time taking!
the cattle off. This second plowing
shou'd be done two weeks before
sowing the seed. Such laud will admit
of broad casting and rvouhl produce
more than if cultivated in drills. The
lluta Bega should bo sown in July.
It is not so liable to be destroyed by
the fly. All other kind of turnips may
be sown in August taking advantage
of a good season. If the com- penned
land cannot be bad prepare other
land using drills. Two hundred
pounds of good guano will do for an
acre m hen drilled. Let it be deposited in
drills a M'eek or ten days before the
seed arc soon. The dist;ice between
the drills should admit of plowing;
tlie crop Thin the plants early to
hbout or 5 inches apart. Well
rotted stable manatire. ground bones,
and ashes or a rich compost, art- all
gtol manure, for turnips.
The Garden.— Too many people
look mainly to their gardens for
spring and summer vegetables, over
looking the various fine articles they
can have late in the fall and during
the winter. This is owing, probably,
to ilie fact that they ' ave sweet po
tasoes, fresh cornfield peas and tur
nips, the first and last to supply them
the greater part ot the winter. They
are fine clishcs as long as they last.
I We have had on our table in Janua
ry, February, March, and a part of
April, Rnta Bega turnips that stood
in the ground all winter, and were
dug as they were wanted. But there
are other things equally as good and
some better that may be had in the
winter months. Irish potatoes p’ant
ed the last of July or early in August
make a fine article for use late in the
fall and for some weeks afterwards.
Fine varieties of winter cabbages,
sown in Slay and transplanted in
June, may be enjoyed the greater
part of the winter. Frosts only add
to their sweet and tender qualities.—•
It may be a plebeian taste but we
confess a fondness for Sonthren col
lards after the frosts have bitten
them, and, in our climate, they will
grow throughout the winter. Beets
parsnips, carrots, onions, leeks, shal
lots, and vegetable oysters may be
had from the first to the last frost. 1
Okra and tomatoes may be larg j
'y cultivated and dried so as to be
nearly if not quite as enjoyable
throughout the winter as during the
summer and fall. Our country
friends have great advantages over
the residents of (ities, for they can
have large gardens and enjoy all of
these things in great abundance.—
Many avail themselves of them, but
as we hinted above too many neglect
them and lose the de'ectab’e articles
they might have with but little
trouble. J.
The Great Farmer’s Maxims.
The suecessfu' life of Mr. Jacob
Straw, the prince of American farm
ers, is attributed to the close observ
ance of the following maxims origi
nated by himself:
Make your fences high and strong,
so I hey will keep cattle and pigs out.
If you have brush, make your lots
strong and secure and keep the hogs
from die corn.
Be sure to pet hands to bed by
seven o’clock; thoy will rise early by
force of circumstances.
Pay a band, i* he is a poor hand,
all you promise him; if he is a good
one pay him a little m >re; it will en
courage him to and * still better.
Always feed your hands as well as
you feed yourselves, for the laboring
men are the bone and sinew of the
of the land a <1 ought to be well
treated
I am satisfied that getting up ear
ly, industry and regular habits are
the best medicine prescribed for
health.
When rainy, had weather comes
so you can’t work out of doors, cut,
split and pde your wood, make your
racks, fix your fences or gate, and
patch the roof of your barn or house.
Study your own intorost closely
and do not spend your time in elect
ing governors, presidents und other
smaller officers.
A PROSPEROUS EARNER.
When you sco a barn larger than
his bouse it shows that ho will have
largo profits an 1 unit'd atfl'c ions.—
When you seo him driving Ins work
lit shows that ho will never bo diiven
from good resolutions, nnd that tie
will certainly welkins way to f res*
poii:y. When you seo in his wood
house a sufficiency for throe months
nr more, it shows that ho will bo
more than a ninety day’ wonder in
1 farming operations, and ho is not
s’eeping ip his house’ufter a diuiiken i
liolic. When his sled is housed in
summer am! his farming impliments
ccverod both winter and summer, it
plainly shows that lie will have a good
house over his head in the summer of
his early life and the winter of o’d
age. When ois cattle aro properly
shio’ded aid fed in winter, it evinces
ihat ho is acting according to Scrip
tu'e, which says ihat “a merciful
man is merciful to Ins beast." A hen
ho is seen subscribing for a paper aud
pnyirg in advance, it shows that he ;
is epeuking like a book respecting the
last improvements iu agriculture, and
that lie navor gets his walking papers
to the land of poveitv.
According to the crop report for
April made by I>r. Jaaes.CommieinD
er ot Agric-uitnin, there is an increase
in tho area planted iu corn of three
per ceut., prop tratlon of soil six per
ieut., and the stand four per cent,
better than an average. The oat crop
is put at nn avetage of ninety-seven
percent, for ihefetateat large. The
area planted in sugar cane is increas
ed nine per cent, and the stand four
]> *r cent. Ilie mca of sorghum is
deceased fifteen per cent, (,'liuias aro
reported to he growing in favor as a
rr:p fi.r loigs. The aiea of cotton
planted is >aid to uo one per cent, in
cu aas over last year. The r port is
quite comp’inr utary to the fchate.
VALUABLE KHCEIPS AND
HINTS.
For Sprains ani> Bkeisf.s. — Boil
together for half an hour, one pint ot
train oil, half a pound of stone-pitch,
half a pound ol rosin, half a pound
of beeswax, and a half a pound of
stale tallow, or in like proportion for
more or less. Skim off the scum,
and pour the liquid into cups and
when cold it will he ready lor use.
When needed it must be spread as
thick but not thicker, than blister
salve upon coarse linen cloth. Apply
it to the part sprained or bruised, and
let it remain for a day or more. It
will give almost immediate relief and
one or two plasters will be sufficient
for a perfect cure.
Hick Bread.— Boil one pound and j
a half of rice gently over a slow fire
in three quarts of water about five
hours, sliring it frequently and after
wards beating it up into a smooth
paste. Mix this while warm into
four pounds of flour, adding at the
same time the usual quan'ity of yeast.
Let i* rise near the fire, divide into
loaves and when baked it will pro
duce 28 or 30 pounds of excellent
white bread.
To Wash a White Lace Veil.—
Simmer the veil slowly for a quarter
of an hour in a strong lather of white
soap and very clear water: then take
up and squeeze it well, but do not
mbit. Wrinse in two cold waters,
with a drop or two of liquid blue in
the last, Next pass the veil through
some very clear gum Arabic water,
or some thin starch, or rice water. —
Then stretch it out even, and pin it
to dry on a linen cloth, making 11-c
edge as straight as possible, opening
out all ti e scalops, and fastening
each with pins. When dry. lay a
piece of tldu muslin smoothly over it,
and iron it on the wrong side.
Domestic Yeast. —An excellent
yeast can be made in every fami y by
the following simple process: Boil
one pound of good flour, a quarter of
a pound of brown sugar, and a little
salt in two gallons of water, for one
hour. When milk warm, bottle it
and cork close. It will be lit for use
in twenty four hours. One pint of
this yeast will make 18 pounds of
bread. It is excellent too for mak
ing cakes, &e.
Excei.lext Hair Wash. —Powder
1 ounce of borax and half an ounce
ofehamphor fine, and disolvc them
in one quart of boiling water; when
cool the solution will be ready for
use; damp the hair frequently. This
wash effectually cleanses, beautifies
and strengthens the hair, preserves
the color, and prevents early baldness.
The champhor will form into lumps
alter being dissolved, but the water
will be sufficiently impregnated.
Ginger Biscuits and Cakes.—
Work into small crumbs three ounces
of butter, two pounds of flour; add
three ounces of powdered sugar and
tw r oof ginger, in flue powder; kneed
into a stiff paste with new milk, roll
thin, cut out with a cutter; bake in
a slow oven until crisp through. Ad
ditional sugar may be used when
sweeter biscuits are desired
For good ginger cakes use butter
six ounces, sugar eight ounc
es, for each pound of flour; wet the
ngredients into a paste with eggs;
a little lemmon-grate will give an
agreeable flavor.
