 Look at your seeds both EOr the field ant tbe garden, and see that they are go"d' ' sufficient quantities. and in order. It yO wist to obtain seeds from your OeighbOrs from distance, make out a list and prOGur them the first opportunity. Have them a so arranged that you can put your mana those you want at once. Select the larges and heaviest seeds. If you have any dOuh about the vitality of your garden seeds tr. them thus: Put a small quantity in lukewarn wafer: let the water be four or five Inche deep. Some seeds. such as those of the cao haze and turnip, if good, will go to the pot tom at once. Cucumber, Lettuce, S1c' re quire few minutes. Parsnip, carrot, a"I "' Scinged seeds, require to be well "etteI Oe'ose you nut them in the carrot should Oe F"OI he'd. so as tO get off ihe hairs. I'he seeas O' beer. are in 2 shell; but if very gooo' Iney vv;Il e;nk .fter heinz in the water an hour. ln rsr.rd to some kiOds of seeds, if you have 1hoso fbat are several years old, use them, oft.r ,r;aI as above ia preference to new ones Srhe seeds ofcucumbers and melons continue good eight or ten years those of the rad dish, turnip, cabbage, &c. three Ur four years while those ofcarrOts, parsnips, SIc. seldom remain good longer than two years. The seeds of melons, squashes, pumpkins, and the like, are better when three or four years old. They produce more and earlier fruit and less vine. If you are to use last years seed of these kinds, wash them to cleanse them from mucillage, and let them be carefully and thoroughly dried.

 See that 6ean poles, and all such articles for the garden, are provided now, while you have time. While getting your wood, this can be done with very little trouble.

 Examine the tools that are to be used next season in the 6eld and in the garden. See whether you have enough, and in good order. Consider whether there are any new ones that it would be good management to intro- duce.

 Look at your .cood pile. See that it is we'll supplied, and in such a state as never to vex either yourself or your wife, at least till Jan- uary, 1887. You will have enough to do while the ground is bare without bestowiug a thought on fre-wood.

 Look at your cattle and sheep. Make friends of them. Give particular attention to your COWS and ewes. If the former are well kept. they may be milked without injury till near the time of calying. If you have any that are now giving milk for the first time,. beware of drying them off too soon. If you let them go dry three or faur months now, you must expect them to do pretty much the same in future years. Ify you haSe. not before separated your ewes from the rest ofthe flock. do 1t now. Let them have access to water as often as they wish during the day; and giVe them something to eat besides hay-po- tatoes or turnips, for instance, or a little corn, or few beans or peas. Consider the facts that have been stated, respecting the number OfIambs that may be expected from 100 ewes. Some can hardly get 30 or 40 feeble creatures, wklle others have from 80 to 100, and more, all stout and vigorous. It is owing to the treatment of the ewes and the difference, as to profit. is immense.

 Finally. if your garden and the grounds about your house. are not such as to interest and please you and all passers by, call fami- iy council, and have a debate on new arrange. ments,to be made in the spring.

 ITO mansion house or seat of human abode, there can scarcely be attached a more profitable and delightful appendage. than we'll fenced, well manured, and we'll cultya ted garden. A garden thus prepared and thus cultivated, abounding also with choice esculents for the table, together with whole some and delicious fruits, together also with Fragrant end ornamental flowers, presents one of the most striking emblems of inno. cence, purity, wisdom, and goodness that can De seen on earth. No culturist should be content, without having in his posses ession suct garden. About the house, in the hous, yard' and lanes connected with the establish ment' may be cultivated to great advantage a to the healthiness of the situation, and ,h honor of good taste, many trees of ornamen and fower'bearing shrubs, together with her and there prolific grape vine. The grap. should consist of the Isabella and other n; tfve varieties.
