S?? Farmers are preparing to "lay by" their cotton Crops. Please "lay by" $2.00 for subscription to- you know what! Thoughts for the Month. As the planter approaches the end of his crop-making operations, be sometimes permits himself to become a little remiss in his exertion or in his vigilance, and the "laying by" is less carefully done than the previous cultivation. This is a great error. The last working, (though it may be light, if the previous ones have been thorough) should befLone with extra | care, so that the field may be left clean and in f?ll possession of the crop and noth ing else. Corn must be kept clean till the blades meet across the rows, then laid by, sowing peas broad-cast at the last working. These will shade the ground and furnish a good crop ef peas, or of I pea vine hay, or an excellent green ma- [ nure to turn under. It is not well to stop the ploughs and hoes in the cotton too soon, but when you find that the sweep will not much longer be able to pass without breaking the branches " lav by" with a careful working. Then, and not till then, consider your duty in the j way of cultivation dene. You want hay, but the cotton field is not a good place ty roake it. One crop at a time is tho rule and cotton, unlike corn, requires the whole season. ?As partial exceptions to the rule of J one crop at a time, we advise peas with corn, and in some cases the small grains with cotton, as they make most of their growth alter the original crop has ceased to require the soil. Oats may be sown at the last working of the cotton, no ex tra labor being required, except the broad casting of the seed between the rows, in advance of the ploughs ; but oats sown so early in the season require to be fed off before the final picking of the cotton, to prevent them from prematurely throw- J ingup tho seed stem. Sheep do this work, with great benefit to themselvs and with no damage to the cotton, provided df course, that they are turned out as soon as the oats arc- well cropped- Wheat* sown later, requires to be covered with the plough or cultivator. During the winter the cotton stalks must be broken down, when tho grain will have full pos session of the field, This plan has been found to work well, when the land has been in good condition and is worthy of a more extensive trial, where labor and mule-power are scarce; but it does not 'l permit that thorough preparation of the land necessary to the best result in small grain culture. ?Those who are not yet prepared to abandon fodder pulling should endeavor to so time the operation as to give the Best results attainable?that is, get a good article of fodder, with the least possible injury to the grain. If you pull too ear ly the corn will suffer badly ; while if you wait too long, the blade will bo of little value. The grains should have be gun to harden, to say the least, before a blade m removed. The time booming when wn'shall wonder that ? ft?y))6dyt ever committed the absurd folly-of pal ling fodder, , . ?8 weet potato draw*/ and* cuttings vines may still be put out in this latitude trot do" ?tot delay this work, as it will soon be too late for a crop. In working the sweet potato' crop, avoid covering the vhxes; many, we are aware, take ? pains to cover the vines, thinking it' increases' the crop, but there can be no greater mistake. Prevent them from taking root between the rows by lifting the vines now and then, especially after heavy rains.; or, better still, if practicable, znnlch the ground heavily, between the rows .and thus prevent the vinos from taking root Hay is a most important and .too much neglected crop. Make all you * can, and prepare to make more next year, by get ting some suitable land into grass. Cow peas may be sown broadcast, as a separ ate crop, for hay. From a bushel to a bushel and a half per acre will be a suffi cient seeding. ?-?Turnips should be. largely planted. Prepare the land thoroughly and manure' heavily, and you nuQr make, your first sowing about the last of this month; and if it fail, you can try again in ten days, and so on, till a stand is obtained; but August and September are generally bet ter months for sowing the main crop. HOUSEHOLD EOONODIY. how to keep . out ?at8 and mice. This is my plan for keeping them out of | barrels of sugar, flour, meal, lard; &c. After the barrel as unheaded, take off tue top hoop and put on an iron hoop, let ting it fit tolerably tight, and let it pro* ject a quarter or a half an inch above the top of the barrel, and then have a lid fitted on quite level and let it project over the side of the barrel about two inches, and I assure you that no mouse can get in by cutting his way, as is their custom, for the iron hoop prevents them subscriber. Sweet Pickled Cucumbers.?Pare one peck of ripe* cucumbers, quarter them lengthwise and nimmer them in slightly salted water until you can stick a straw through them easily. Then take the fruit out of the water and put in jars. Have ready a syrup made of a . pint and a half of good vinegar, four and a half pounds rf sugar, rnd spices to ] taste, and pour it hot over the cuuumbcrs, cover up and and set away in a pool -place. In a cou ple oj bays poor off the syrup, heat up again and pour hot over the fruit as before. Be care ful not to have too much salt in the tint process. The rule is, a ponnd and a half of sugar to ev ery half pint of vinegar for the syrup.. Souppebmono Wine.-A correspondent of the ] Mobile Register furnishes the following sim ple recipe: Gather the grapes when fully ripe and crush them in a tub or trough with a com mon maul, after which press the juice out as close as possible?i. e., as long as it will run; put two pounds of the best white sugar to each gallon of juice ; fill a cask brimming full and leave the bung open. When fermentation cea ses, stop bung in barrel tight; it will take about twenty days to ferment. Bore a spigot hole in barrel with gimlet, and pat spigot in it, and try it frequently, by taking spigot out to see if fermentation is entirely over.
