POETRY. 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 of Agricultural.
