ANOTHER busy month for the farmer; but he who has learned to drink in the unspeakable joys which nature deals out with a lavishing hand during the month of June, is never so busy or so tired but he can occasionally stop to listen to the morning or evening concert of the happy birds, or gaze on the bright green leaves of the growing vegetation, and snuff the fragrant odors of the almost endless varieties of beautiful flowers. This is the month to look over the farm in the cool of the morning, before breakfast, to decide what work needs to be done the most; the farmer who does not do this will often neglect to do that which is most important and do that which could be delayed without injury. Do not let the bugs destroy your crops when a little work will prevent it. Watch the squash and cucumber vines, and when the striped bug appears give him a little hellebore, or, if you have it, some air-slaked lime, being careful to put some on the ground around the stalks of the plants. The large black bug should be caught under a few old shingles placed around the hills near the squash vines, and killed before they lay any eggs. The potato beetle should have a little Paris green if you would get your share of the potatoes. Fight both the worms and the weeds.

CUT your grass when it is in the right condition, and not do like some farmers, who wait until it is believed the weather is all right; for he who waits for a good hay week, as a rule has a wet time of it, while he who mows his grass when he thinks it time, without much thought about the weather, will generally secure his hay in good order.

He who 14 F 5th Sunday after Trinity. gives his whole time and atten tion to harvesting his hay gets less of it wet than he who spends half of his time looking at the clouds and predicting rain. 15 Mo.

It is easier to kill a hundred weeds when less than .foot in height; and a hundred an inch high, than five when a weeds less than an inch high will not injure the crop as much as two weeds a foot high. Keep the springs in the pastures well cleaned out, that the cattle may have good water; and as the feed gets short, see that the fences are all right. A little watchfulness in this respect often saves much trouble and unkind feelings between neighbors. 20 Sa. St. Margaret. C.
