SPRING FLOWERS AND BIRDS.
IIow sweet and pleasant is the spring,
The time of gentle showers,
Of sunshine bright and breezes Tight,
The budding time of flowers.
Then from amid the meadow gruss
The pink-fringed daisies peep,
The violets shed their sweet perfume
Around the woodland deep.
The rushes wave along the fens,
The harebells on the hills,
And in the nooks of rippling brooks
The purple daffodils.
? * i-:u
'ine IlUppy CIIHUIOU nauuvi iv..u
By lawn, by lea aifd vale,
To seek the hawthorn's earliest buds,
And pluck the primrose pale.
Oh I joyous is the May time,
The gayest month of spring,
When loud in ^gladc and greenwood shade
The happy warblers sing.
Oh, busy, are the birds,
And sweet the noise they make
Around their nests, their happy homes, i
In garden, jgrove^nd brake.
In search of food for their young brood
O'er hill and dale they soar,
And fly back swiftly to their nests
x ) ^ trith their most welcome store.
How lovely is the May time
With all its blooming flowers,
With all its sweet yoiced birds of song,
Its sunshine and its showers.
Dear children, when you wander forth
To gather posies fair;
To listen to the birds whose sons
Thrill through the sunny air.
Thank God, who made these flowers bloom,
Who made these birds to sing,
. . . That they might raise our thoughts to Ilitn
From whom all blessings spring
From the Southern Planter and Farmer.
How To Begin Improving a Farm.
The first thing to be done' is to lay it off
into small fields, suited as near as may be
. to the less or greater fertility of the soil, having
the fields as nearly square, or in other
words the fences in straight lines from one
point to another so as to give the farm a <
i.?when it can be affor
t UMiUOVUIO --
ded. I would recommend board fences as 1
most economical, first because they are sub.
stantial.and need but little attention or re- 1
- i I '
:: pair for a long time; and, second, i
because the land saved, in nty opinion, j
with proper cultivation, will more than pay
for the fence, as often as it will have to be
renewed; and thirdly, because there is no
trouble to keep them free from briars and
bushses. If however, plank fences are
- thought too expensive for the time being,
then I would, as the next best, if timber is
plenty, make the Jefferson or stake and cap
fence. This, if well made, with locust stakes
and good rails, will last a long time, and will
give but little trouble in repairing, not likel"
ly to be effected by storm. If timber is
scarce, I would advise to make the outside
, ,i<t,, fence to the foregoing ways; and for divi%.
sions use portable fences. By this method
: there only would be necessary a sufficiency
i to enclose such portions of the farm as might
? ? P<trfnKln fpriPAS
DC necessary wj uo a. ???/.? ? ,
., may be made during during the winter, in
bad weather under a shelter, by any person
who has mechanical genius in the following
manner. For the post and base have the
plank sawed two inches thick and eight or
ten inches wide; cut the base four feet long
and the post about five feet; spike the post
firmly to the base, cutting a recess into the
''' ffost to receive the Second and fourth plank,
The plank being cut the proper length, there
. should be three battens, one at each end, 1
and one in the middle nailed to the plank,
two of which should be long enough to receive
a pin out side of the post.
Much has been said and written in favor
of the five field system, and it may do very
well where the farm is uniform in quality;
but where a farm is undulating, having some
level and some rolling land upon it, in my
opinion, it is not the thing, because the level
. and most fertile portions will bear more, and
. the less fertile will bear less cultivating, and
" ebnsequently should be more or less in grass.
I therefore have not been able in my practice
to adopt this system.
, .The next thing, after the farm is properly
- 'arranged, is thorough plowing, This should
be done with not less than three good horses'
or mules, first because less power than this
will not be able to plow deep enough, nor
can it be turned as well; and second, because
? it is otherwise more economical in saving
time and labor, for three horse plows will do
as much work in a given time, as three two
..". horse plows, thus saving the labor of one
hand and doing little work.
Thorough plowing is indcspensible to the
improvement of the land, as well as for the
producing of the present crop. By deep
plowing the soil is deepened, less liable to
wash away, to suffer from drought or excessive
wet, as the water will quickly soak away
from the root of the plant and yet be retained
in the ground to be supplied when needin
o annrnodinrr drniifrVif ft. is Tirrf. nnlv
? ?~?p ?"~o? J
necessary to plow deep and thorough, but
the ground should be thoroughly pulverized
before the seed is deposited; so that the root
of the plant in search of nourishment may
have opportunity to draw a little from every
particle with which it conies in contact,
which it cannot do, if the land is hard and
cloddy. * To accomplish this, replowing, thorough
harrowing, and rolling is of the greatest
advantage. This is the method I adopted
in the commencement of my farming, operations,
and is to some extent the secret of
my success. When I commenced farming,
my first object was to improve my farm, and
the accumulation of property was entirely
a secondary consideration, altogether subordinate
to the first; and after realizing the
happy result of my theory, and recommending
it to others, was frequently met with the
reply, "I am not able to improve," Upon,
which I responded, nor unless you do improve
will you ever be better able. When I
commenced business I invested all my stock
in trade in my farm, and was then pretty
largely in debt, and it was said by some of 1
my acquaintance that I had bought the old
Stoncr farm and gone there to starve, but I
procured good farming implements, took
hold of the plow with my own hands, having 1
none other but a little hired help. I went
doM-n and brought up fresh earth that had
never been to the surface and the result was ]
that I succeeded at once in making bountiful
crops, which remunerated me for all my
labor and secured me a handsome profit, and
afforded me besides the pleasure of having
everything to look flourishing around me,
as remarked to mo a short time ago, by an
enterprising young man, "It docs a man good
to look at your farm." Feeling, therefore, a
deep concern for t^e interest of Virginia, the '
land of my birth, and the mother of States,
I would recommend the adoption of this
policy, with such improvement as may be
suggested by other practical and successful
farmers, and in our next we will speak of
manuring, fertilizing, &c. M.
Be Careful of the Teams.
The farmer who does not know that there
is danger of injuring his team (whether it
be of horses or oxen) by overwork the first x
warm days of spring, must have had very
small experience, or had been a poor observer
The wrirmer davs of earlv Spring pro
" ' * "v " ? ? - y A %./ *
duce a relaxing effect upon the muscles of | (
man and beast. There seems to be a letting '
down of the whole system. Men who have l
labored every day during the winter notice '
upon themselves, aud complain of a lassitude 1
that unfits them for Bevere toil. The same
would be true of cattle and horses if they
could speak. ]
But it is often the case that the farmer's <
team stands idle most of the time for several 11
weeks in the latter part of the winter, and
becomes, in a degree, weak for want of exercise.
If a team thus treated is put to plow- <
ing when the first warm weather comes, there
is great danger that it will be so overcome l
by heat and fatigue as to be permanently in- j
jured. We remember seeing oxen nearly <
ruined in this way. Only the most careful ]
drivers should have charge of the team when
it is first put to the spring's work in the field; ,
and full work should not be expected for the
first fed days. The capacity of a team for
labor on the farm during cropping season 1
depends very much on the treatment it re- (
ceives during the first week. r I
Another thing, horses and oxen at work (
need water often. The plowman carries his i
jug of water, or leaves his team to rest while J
he goes to the house for a drink. But the (
team works harder than the driver, and pro- ]
bably needs drink as often, yet many teams
are taken out early to the prairie field, where
there is no water, except in the driver's jug,
and worked five or six hours before they can
get a drop. Is it any wonder that they are
injured by drinking too much when they
are led to the spring at noon ?
Now, as an act of kindness to the horses i
and oxen that serve man so faithfully, and 1
as a matter of economy, we recommend that
in all cases where the water is not in or near
the field in which the team is at work, a tnb (
or barrel be furnished and filled with water ]
as regularly as the plowman's jug. This, 1
with a bucket, may easily be set in the wagon
and takeu to the field ; and the team should
be permitted to drink at least once every
half day, and oltener if the weather is warm.
If every one would adopt this plan, we should
hear no more of "water founder j" the teams
would be more vigorous and hardy, and perform
more labor for their owners.?Juurual
