1 Simeelf must either hold or drite-' J
Wovk for ihe Month February. .
The winter, up to the close of the
first month pi the year, has been so ee
fere that no progress has been made
In any out-door work, aad when Spring
opens much ordinarily dispatched at
this season will be found pressing to
' be performed. Thorough preparation,
however, and thoughtful plans are now
in order, and m il make tne tasks to be
' done all the easier of accomplishment
rhen thoy may be npproached.
Sowino Clover Seed. il?.ry of
Our-' best farmers like, lo sow in t! U
month or in March and, if practicable, j
when snew is on tho ground, which
. melting carries the seed down and
tnl the crevices left by the frost, there
to germinate. Seed, too, sown on the
ground when it i9 frozen will become
. imbedded in the soil as it thaws, and
" aooti covered, thus giving' protection to
the young plant. If not sown early,
under the one or the other of these
conditions, it is better, to wait -until the
frost is entirely out. of , the' ground and
then sow, harrow and roll. The. har
rowing and rolling will not only cover
the seed, but also do good to U e
wheat plants ; any disturbed by the
toeth of the harrow being pressed
back into their places by the roller.
For most soils 12 pounds of seed to the
acre is sufficient, but in 4most cases a
V bushel is made to o ovfr six p'r 'eight
Acres.
OnciiARD Grass Ought-, to Di
sown arly, and when sown with clov
er a bnshel is generally csed with ten
pounds of clover seed to the acre;
Where both arc nut .on the same land
they should be sown separately to se
cure even distribution, and harrowed
and rolled. w.TJsed alone orchard grass
should be sown thick to avoid the for
. mation of tu9tocks or stools. In sucl
acaso two bushels of seed is not too
: lauch to the aero.
-: Tobacco. The season for stripping
tobacco is now fully at hand. Let the
planter embrace every opportunity for
ttriDoinr. Remember always our oft
repeated advice to be careful in assort
luff the leaves, bot'i as to- color and
length. It is folly to spoil the croi
bow that it is made, by careless haml-
ling. The bundles will do better up
on the slicks for the next month than
fo tho tullv. Tobacco beds - may now
be selected and made. Wc; repeat
what we have heretofore said ; south
rn exposures best, though northern
xposures, all other things being equal,
will be only a few days behind a steuih-
wu exposure, and have this additional
advantage that such plants stand
drought longest. Two hundred and
fty pounds of the finest gnano is not
too much for a bed of twenty yards
square.
Live Stock. From reports that we
hearfrom most localities where the
Advance will be read, it appears that
tho winter has bocn one of ; more
than usual severity. The farmer who
keeps domestic animals of any variety,
does so thinking that they will either
directly or indirectly benefit him the
botter thojeare the larger! he profit will
be iu all cases.
' Breeding ewes, as tho time ap-r
preaches that, we expect them to ;de-
clare their usual stock 'dividend," must
have great care. Novar allow them
to run in the amv enclosure - with
other stock, especially hogs or colls,
as tho former will invariably destroy
tho lambs, and.the latter, ly .running
and kicking, cause ambs to be born
premalurely or destroyed by the rough
play of the colts. It is always best to
provide a small dark stable, large
enough for one or two sheep and their
lambs. As soon a9 you find a sheep in
libor, if not too far .advanced, si e
ought to bo put iu a box or stall aloue !
jrtqucntly a uewoborn lamb will get ,
. tinder a sack, or in some out-of-th'c-
vaj corner, so that its dam cannot
look after it till much chilled' t3'be
gtyed without taking it to the fire. I!'
when found the larub seems too much
eVdled to nurse from the dam alone,
she ehonld be yently caught bV an as
sistant, and held flat on one side while
you milk a few drops of milk in its
mouth, (to he held open by inserting a
finger of the Yeft hand.) A very small
quantity will most likely hare the de
aired effect, that is to make it dcaire
- more aud try to suck dth assistance.
; Remember, always, that to follow na
ture is the best plan, if the lamb i3
able ana tue ewe wining-. "VYe have
often seen'lambs so far gone that. the v
could not move, from cold and neglect
on the mother's part by a few mo
