HINTS OF THE SEASON.
I. Cut corn and such other crops as
were, sown-for soiling cattle. Feed beet
and turnip tops, cabbage leaves, &c, es
pecially to milch cows. Give an abund
ance of green feed to fattening stock;
now is tne time to lay on flesh, not a
couple of months. " It is easier to gain
three pounds m weight now, than one in
December.
II. Select corn for seed, choosios
the earliest, most prolific, and such as
ives promise of superiority. Good se
lected seed will produce better crops
than that which is taken at random.
Cut and shock Corn when ripe, or imme
diately after the first frost. Leaving it
in the wind until battered and bleached
by the wind and rain, makes the fodder
worthless and the grain inferior.
III. Attend to draining all wet or
tenacious soils. s If there is cold or stag
nant water in the subsoil, any expecta
tion of good crops will be disappointed.
It is. better policy to borrow money with
which to pay for draining, (and we hate
borrowing,) than "to leave the land un-
drained; it pays better. Many kinds of
sou that are worthless in a state of na
ture, become the most valuable after be-
g drained. "Tile can now be had in
nearly every town, and makes , the best
and most durable of all drains.
IV. Keep your fences in good order.
At no other time in the year are stock
more apt to be breachy, especially such
as are allowed to run in the road to pick
up a precarious living by stealing food,
or appropriating the pickings. Uneeow
in the road compels every farmer in the
vicinity to keep his fences up, and gates
shut. This expense exceeds by many
times the price of the cow in a single
V. Commence to fatten hogs early,
supplying them with plenty of such bed-,
ding as will make good manure when
mixed with their droppings. Hogs fat
tened now bring more in market than
those thatcome later, and fatten at a much
less 08fc,,v'-.-..--w.-. -...-.
YI. Make all the manure you can.
Cart much for this purpose, and place
it where the urine and droppings of
stock can mint with; it in winter. 1 "-Weeds
that have not": ripened their seeds, will
aiso increase tne pne. 11, nowever, tne
seed are ripe, it is better to -burn them,
for the eed will not be destroyed, but
eprout next season, so that while ma
nuring the soil, you will also seed it with
weeds, and there are always more than
enough of these. Ohw Farmer.
The Father of Rl-r era. -
A writer, referring to the vastness of
the Mississippi, says:
"It extends 2,100 miles from the fro
zen regions of the North to the sunny
South, and with the Missouri river, is
4,500 miles in length. It would reach
from New York .across the, Atlantio
ocean, or from Fiance to Turkey and
the Caspian sea. Its average depth is
fifteen feet and its width half a mile.
The floods are more than a month trav
eling from its source to its delta. The
trappers can - exchange the furs of. ani
mals caught by them on the. Upper Mis
sissippi for the tropical fruit gathered
on the banks below. The total value of
steamers afloat on the river and its trib-
utaries is more than $60,000,000, num
beringlOO boats, with more than twice
the steamboat tonnage of England. It
drains an area -of 1,200,000 square miles,
and washes the shores of twelve power
ful States. . . In one single reservoir at
Lake Pepin, between Wisconsin and
Minnesota, 2,500 miles from the sea, the
navietf of the world hiight safely ride at
anchor."
Setting Fence Post..
A writer in the Ohio
that he"can set 'posts
Cultivator says
better and far
more rapidly by driving with a maul or
iron sledge, when the ground is just
free from frost, and still wet and soft,
than by digging holes. His posts are
sawed seven feet long, and four by five
inches ui size, and then carefully and
regularly sharpened, so as to put the
"top end down." The posts ' are held
steady or turned, when necessary, by
using a long-handled iron wrench, and
made just large enough to slip over the
top of the post.fOn loamy . or clayey
land, tree trom large stone, posts can be
driven with great expedition, and. will
stand firmly, the eaith around them
being well packed by the crowding of
tne post. -
Mill
Corn FodderCut it Now.'
Now is the time to cut up corn fod
der, If. cut before the ear or grain
forms, cattle will eat the stock entire,
buts and all; but if left until the grain
or ear is tormed, the cattle will eat very
little if any : below the ear.. Again, if
corn todder is now cut, the heat 01 the
sun for the coming two weeks will dry
it, so that it can be stacked away with
out risk of heating.
Use a cradle, in cutting; if a common
grain cradlej make a new head piece and
spread the fingers, so that they will
carry the corn without clogging. There
is a regular corn cradle made, and we
presume tor 6ale by all agricultural im
plement dealers, and if any one has ten
or more acres of fodder itwill pay well
to purchase one.

. Few persons f says the WirZd) imag
ine the extent of the trade in crinoline
wire. - For about three years past the
consumption of wire by the crinoline
workers in this country has been not far
trom one hundred tuns per week. The
wire is of steel, and the price has ranged
from, fifteen to thirty, cents per "pound.
At the average T-twenty-two cents the
yearly consumption amounts to $2,464,

my doubts it has bad the desired effect. :

have used your Restorative, and And it all it is rec
ommended to be. I have tried it for Tetter and find

No one can doubt their superiority after one single
