FEBRUARY WORK AND
PLANS.
Ixtracts from the American Agriculturist.
The Iasttmonth of winter has be
gun for the Northern farmer, while
in the Southern States spring has
already opened ; whatever is to be
done in the way of preparation can
be no longer dalaped. A late be.
ginning makes a late season, and
to regain time lost now, may be
found impossible hereafter. A far.
mer who is behindhand is a prey to
accidets and misfortunes of the
season, and often finds his labor in
creased, and the results lessened
by reason (of his own carelessness.
On the other hand, the forward
man gets the benefit of every ad
vantage, and many disadvantages
of season are safely passed over,
because he is ahead of them.
HAULNG oUT MUE.--While the
ground is hard or covered wirh
snow, the manure heaps can be
hauled to the fields with the least
trouble. Those who have profited
by our hints for the past few
months, will have the manure in
good condition for hauling out now;
others will have it lying around
loose and frozen, and consequently
useless for~ some time yet.
The finest manure is made by
turning the heap over twice. To
do this, begin at each end of the
pile, and throw off the manure to a
distance of three feet, building up
the new heaps, and placing the
coarsest~ manure in the center'.
Then proceed until two heaps are
made. These will soon heat, and a
month or so afterwards the process
may be reversed and the two heaps
made into one'again.
C.aAs....--Every farmer should
raise cabbages,:both early and late.
For early kinds, the seeds should
be sown in a hot-bed this month,
unless plants started last fall have
been keep through the winter in
cold-frames. Directions for making
a hot-bed will be found under the
Notes- for Kitchen and Market
Garden. It is not awaste of ma
nure to use it for ahot-bed, asit
will be all the better for application
in the garden after it has served
this purpose
SmNGw WHm.-In many locali
ties spring wheat will succeed if it
is sown early. Open weather this
month, may permit plowing and
sowing, although the under soil is
-still frasen. A cold spell may
freeze -the .ground, or covent with
snow, but the seed issafe, the work
is done ; and one may rest con
tented, while others are grumbling.
Plowing should be done, only
when the soil will crumble loosely ;
when the plow smears the upturned
surfaee, the soil will be injured.
While earliness and forehanded
ness are commendable, one should
make haste with caution.
Loox Amun 3-A farmer should
always think in advance of his
work. The whole plan must be
laid out in the head, before the
hands are put toit. There istime
yet left for thinking over what
should be done in the next two or
three busy months.
A great need ini the South is
grass for early grazing and hay.
Some of the native grasses that
have been fought~ and struggled
with for years as weeds are now
found to be of great value. By
smoothing off a piece of grassy
land, and using some fertilizer and
encouraging the growth, a home
supply of hay may be secured. It
is often the case that a treasure may
lie neglected under our feet, and
some of the Southern grasses, long
neglected, can be turned to profita
ble use.
WHY cx NO-r WE GRow LABGER
Caors ?-There are localities where
it may pay to grow small crops
cheaply, where one may skin the
land for a few years and leave it,
just as in some places cattle are or
have been killed for their hides and
localities the future prosperity of
the farmers will depend upon the
growth of larger crops by the ex
penditure of more labor on the
land. To reach this end will be a
work of time, but it will never be
reached unless a beginning is made,
and there was never a more pro
pitious time to begin than now.
VALUES ARE ICREAsING.-Every
relic of the long continued depres
sion-the seven lean years-now
happily gone by, is passing away.
Prices are advancing, and every
purchased thing costs considerably
more than a year ago. The far
mer who values his land and stock
may justly put up the figures from
25 to 50 per cent. His income
must be made to increase in pro
portion, and this must be done to
a great extent by increasing in
every possible way the productive
value of his property.
BETrER STocK MUST BE KEPT.
The right stock too must be kept
in the right place. The choice and
management of animals require an
accurate knowledge which must
come from outside of his own farm
practice. A farmer can not test
these things for himself and run
the risk of losses that would be
ruinous to him. All this has been
done and recorded in books and
agricultural papers, together with
much other indispensable infor
mation, so that
A farmer must be a reading man ;
else he can never hope to be as suc
cessful as he should be. A dozen
volumes of the American Agricul
turist will form a nearly complete
cyclopedia of agricultural, mechan
ical, and other useful knowledge for
any one wh lives by cultivating the
soil. The work of the farm, gar
den, and household has been dis
cussed, described, and explained ini
these volumes for more than 30
years back, in a full, fresh, and in
structive manner ; with them one
can learn how to improve his own
stock or where to procure the best
animals,as well as to improve every
method of working, enabling him
to meet nearly every question and
demand that may naturally arise.
KEEPTHEGOOD:cES-As the
cows come in, the best of the heifers
may be selected for raising. There
can be no better way to improve
the stock of cows than to use a
good bull and keep the best calves,
well feeding and caring for them
zntil matured. After these be
come cows a selection can again be
made for breeding, and only the
best retained. In a few years the
value of dairy cows may be doubled
by this careful practice of selection.
GEESE AND DUCKs.-These are
profitable birds in some cases, and
may be kept where there is cheap
grazing. Half a dozen geese will
soon fill a good sized feather bed or
a pair of pillows. The white ducks
are perhaps equally useful in this
way. Both of these will now begin
to lay, but must be closely watched
and kept up at nights or they will
drop their eggs abroad. The eggs
should be gathered and kept tin a
cool; but not cold place until they
are wanted for setting.
ScA.LoPED OYSERs.-Orush and
roll several handfuls of Boston or
other nice crackers ; put a layer in
the bottom of a buttered pudding
dish ; wet this with a mixture of
the oyster liquor and;milk, slightly
warmed ; next put a layer of oys
ters ; sprmnkle with salt and pepper
and put bits of butter upon them ;
then another layer of moistened
crumbs, and repeat until the dish
is full; let the top layer be of
crumbs thicker -than the rest, and
beat an egg into a little milk and
pour over them ; put bits of butter
ticklv over it and bake half an
CURE FoE A SEL~E-SUcKING Cow.-A
subscriber sends a method of pre
venting a cow from sucking her
self ; this is simply to fasten to the
horns a long, sharp-pointed stick
by means of strong pieces of twine.
The pointed stick should extend
about a foot outside of the horns.
This simple contrivance prevents
the cow from reaching the teat
when disposed to suck herself. The
stick should be removed as scon as it
is evident that the cow has lost the
inclination to suck herself which
will be"after a short time.
THE TURNIP !-3 A 'GREAsER.'-In
baking buckwheat and other griddle
cakes, a piece of fat meat as a
'greaser' is by many thought to be
indispensable. Those who are of
this opinion will, on trial, soon
learn that a turnip diviJed in two
anwer the same or a better pur-i

Ayer's Ague Cure,
- ~
For Fever and Ague, Intermttent
ever, Chill Fever, Remittent Fever,
Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever,
&c., and indeed all the affections which
arise from malarious, marsh, or mias
natic poisons.
This is a componnd remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients, which
rarely fails to cure the severest cases of Chills
nd Fever and the concomitant disorders. Such
a remedy the necessities of the people in malari
>s districts demand. Its great superiority over
ny other medicine yet discovered for the cure
of Intermittents is, that it contains no quinine or
mineral, and those who take it are free from
danger of quinism or any injurious effects, and
ar as healthy after using it as before. It haa
been extensively employed during the last thirty
years in the treatment of these distressing dis
orders, and so unvarying has been its success
that It has gained the reputation of being infalli
ble. It can, be safely recommended as a sure
remedy and specific for the Fever and Ague of
the West, and the Chills and Fever of the
South, which, once broken up by it, do not
return until the disease is again contracted.
The great variety of disorders which arise
from the irritation of this poison, such as 1'Neu
ralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, 11eadache,
Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Ca
tarrh, Asthma, Palpitation, Splenie
affection - Hysteries, Pain in the Bow-.
ms, Colic, Paralysis, and derangement of
the Stomach, all of which become intermittent
r periodical, have no speedlier remedy than
ER'S AGUE CCRE, which cures themi all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. As
a preventive, it is of immense service in those
omunities where Fever and Ague prevails,
as it stays the development of the disease if taken
mn the first approach of the premonitory symp
toms. Travellers and tempuorary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
wll ever suffer if they avail themselves of thec
rotection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from
torpidity, it is an excellent remedy ; it stimulamtes
this organ into healthy activity, and p)roduces
any remarkable cures where other medicines

.-t; believes that the only gui h of policy
si 1111 1). common se"nse. inilpirel by gen
uiin" Arerican principl(s and backet by
hnuiety of purpose. For this reason it ia.
and will continue to be. ahsolutely indte
pendent of party, class, clique;, organ ization,
or interest. It is for all, but of none. It will
continue to praise whai is good and repro
bate what is evil, taking care that its lan
guage is to the point and plain, beyond the
possibility of being misunderstood. It is
uninfltenced by motives that do not ap
pear on the surface; it has no opinions to
sell. save those which may be had by any
purchaser with two cents. It hates in
justice and rascality even nore than it hates
untecessary words. It abhors frauds. pities
fools, and deplores .hineomlpoops of every
species. It will continue throughout the
year 16L to chastise the first class, instruct
the second, and discountenance the third.
All honest nen, with honest convictions,
whether sound or mistaken, are its friends.
And THE SUN makes no bones of telling the
truth to its friends and about its friends
whenever occasion arises for plain speak
ing.
These are the principles upon which THE
SUN will be conducted during the year to
come.
The year 1850 will be one in which no pa
triotic American can afford to close his eyes
to public affairs. It is impossible to exag
gerate the importance of the political events
which it has in store, or the necessity of re
solute vigilance wi the part of every citizen
who desires to preserve the Government
that the founders gave us. The debates and
acts of Congress, the utterances of the press,
the exciting contests of the Republican and
Democratic parties now nearly equal in
strength throughout the country. the vary
ing drift of public sentiment, will all bear
directly and effectively upon the twenty
fourth Presidential election, to be held in
November. Four years ago next November
the will of the nation, as expressed at the
polls, was thwarted by an abominable con
spiracy, the promoters and beneficiaries of
which still hold the cilices they stole. Will
the crime of 1876 be repeated in 1880 ? The
past decade of years opened with a corrupt,
extravagent, and insolent Administration
intrenched at Washington. THE SUN did
something toward dislodging the gang and
breaking its power. The same awen are now
intriguing to restore their leader and them
selve. to places from which they were driv
en by the indignation of the people. Will
they succed? The coming year will bring
the answers to these momentous. THE SUN
will be on hand to chronicle the facts as
they are developed, and to exhibit them
clearly and fearlessly in their relations to
expediiency and right.
Thus, with a habit of philosophical good
humor inlooking at the minor affairs of
life, and in great things a steadfast purpose
to maintain the rights of the people and
the principles of the Constitution against all
aggressors. THE SUN is prepared to write a
truthful. instructive, and at the same time
entertaining history of 1880.
