Lambe -riga and the Cold.
The farmer who waite for spring to
appear before he begins his year' e work
will find himself unable to accomplish'az
much as he intended when the busy
season arrives. The first operation is
preparing the ground by plowing. Neih.
ing can be done as long as the frost keeps
the earth in a, lard condition, but an
open winter offers many favorable oppor-
tunities for plowing. Where the ground
is level; and not suleject to "washings"
from rains, the manure can be hauled
out and spread over the surface, when it
will be rendered fine by frost. When
the plow comes along and turns the
manure under it will be more complete-
ly decomposed by the time the corn is to
be planted. The early plowing also
turns up the insects, which are more
easily destroyed by cold and warm
weather than by cold only.

WHEAT IN SPRING.
Wheat is often thrown up when the
season varies, and unless the plants are
pressed back into the soil with the roller
some of the plants Indy be injured.
Wheat, however, rarelY fails if it makes
a good start in the fall, where the land
is suitable, The most important matter
is to, give it a better send-off in spring.
This is done by harrowing the field with
a smoothing harrow, which will not pull
up the plants' but loosen the surface soil.
As soon as the season opens this ahonld
be done, and an application of 50 or 100
pounds of nitrate of soda per acre given,
which will make a market difference in
the growth of the plants as soon as the
ground begins to become warm.
Manures serve -best on corn land, but
the garden should also receive * large
share. For wheat, oats and rye soluble
fertilizers are better than manure in the
spring.
LIME AND GRAS&
cue interior nay. to S. valuable tood by
giving a greater feeding value to the ra-
tion.
Sheep and cattle are not averse tee eat-
ing straw, even when well fed: It is
nothing unusual to find them at the
straw stack and taking a change of
coarse food. This fact detnonstrates
that straw may be added to tile regtuar
ration-, which will be relished by the
stock and cost less than when hay is
given alone.

TRUNKS AND VALISES,
-FtarlY in the seasoh is an excellent
time to apply lime, ad as to permit the
frequent rains to ewe' it down. No
crops respond so well, to lima as clover
and pasture grasses. The lime acts chem.
loony on the soil, thus liberating plant
food and adding warmth. Potash,nitrate
of soda and superphosphates are superior
to lime, but the low wet of the latter
should induce its use. The grass crop is
the most important one•on dairy farms,
and should be given an application of
mixed fertilizers every spring, but the
effect of the fertilizers will be more no-
ticeable if they are applied early,as'some
kinds are only slowly soluble, such as
plaster, and if the work is done before
the busy mason comes, it will be time
saved. Rye is the earlieit crop on the
farm, and thefertilizer for it can hard-
ly be applied too soon, dent much de-
pends on the label. There is oae point
in favor of lime on gram land, which
. .
is, that any expense in its use is sure to
be returned sooner or later, as it is a
necessary ingredient in the food of all
plants.

The non -setting . breeds of feeds al-
.
ways lax eggs that are white; while tne
breeds that become broody, end set, lay
dark eggs. The color of the shell does
hot indicate the quality of tne egg.
The hog receives more cold food than
any other animal. The 6100 often be-
comesfrozen in the trough. When the
hog is compelled to eatfood that is.in
half -frozen condition, or when the ice on
the trough must be broken to allow it to
drink, there will be a loss of animal
heat, and' the loss will have to be replac-
ed by more food. It 'does not pay to
warm the food within the body, of the
annual, it is cheaper to give warm food
and add to the animal's comfort and
thrift. •
Milk and eggs bring in returns daily,
and are sources of revehue at this sea-
son, when. there is -nothing else on th'e
farm to sell at an advantage.

quantity of all thane commodities being
84,2/4,731 pounds. The quantity of spirit
entered for consumption lest year was
2,731,896 proof gallons, or an inoreaee ne
180,000 gallons hi the year. The quantity
held in Stock on Any 1st, 1893, was the
largest by nearly hen a Million gallons ,that
has been held by Canadian distilloo,
amounting to 13,502,814 gallons, as agaiesi,
an average during the preceding four years
of 11,57006 gallons. It is interestiug
to note the gradual development of
the foreign demand for Canadian die -
allay products. The quantity exported
in 1889 wits 8 731 gallons ,• in 1891,
20,497 ; iu 1893, 51,239 gallons,
This increare is belieeed to be largely due
to the fact that the Government guarantee
of age—the regulations requiring that the
liquor must remaiu itt bond for two years be-
fore being sold for consumption—is becom-
ing known and appreciated abroad, the en-
forced maturing improving ilits quality. Mr.
Miall, the commissioner, believes that Can -
median whiskies will soon constitute an ap-
preciable proportien of the exports of man-
afecitured goods.
nThe total quantity of malt taken for non -
gumption last year was 50,082,751 pounds,
' being about two millions and a Waif leas
than the average of the peep five years. The
quantity manufactured shows a similar fall-
ing off. Of tobacco 10,596,633 pounds were
manufactured, the average for the previous
four years being 9,785,151 pounds. There
was a greater ,consumption of tobacco hilt
year by 300,000 pounds than in any of the
previous four pearl,. There were manufac-
tured during the year 114,340,490 cigars,
an increase of 14,000,000 over the average.
The new way 40 grovr onions is to sow
the seed in hot beds about six or9eight
weeks before they are to be transplanted.
As onions are the earliest of crops to go

section onions are grown from sets, and
the gets are produced from seed the
previous year. By a new method the

bed within n few weeks, instead of

but not so with the dams, which may

On very few farms, even where fruit
is made one of the leading nroducts of
the soil, are -suitable accommodations
provided for the convenient and most
ecouemical handling and storing of fruit.
A bending entirely devoted to grain is a
very common sight, and this, too, where
grain is not made the most important
.crop upon the farm. There would ap-
pear to be no reasoa why fruit should
not have a place provieted for its accom-
modation as well as grain, especially as
fruit requires more exact conditions as
to temperature, and mpisture. A house
cellar where apples, pears and other
limit are usually stored is, in the
majority of cases, entirely unsuited
for such a purpese since the
same place is used for the string of
potatoes, roots and various other pro-
ducts of the soil, and is often, morepver,

While there is not much to be done to the
bees in January, what little there is is im-
portant. Theo in proper winter repositories
properly fixed require but very little atten-
tion, while these net so conditioned might
require a, geed deal sr lose would result. In
the former case the entrances should be ex-
amined, and the dead obstruotiag it re-
moved to give a free exitand ample ventila-
tion. Then, if the floor of the repository
Is strewed with dead bees, as it always will
be more or less, those should be removed
before they become a nuisance. The floor
should be covered literally with dry saw-
dust, and fresh lime placed around kers and
there. Bees wintered outside should be
looked after new and then eepecially after
heavy snow stermnte see that the entrances
are kept clear. It sometimes happens
that during a cold veil the entrances
will become completely filled with ice from
within—the heat of the bees melting the
frost which oollects on the inside of the
hive, when it rune down and out, seedils
frozen in the entrance. This must ba at-
tended to. Many farmers still nee the
"old box hive" for their bees. These if
'
being wintered in the cellar, where the tinn-
perature ranges from 40 to 50 degrees Fehr.,
would be an the batter inverted—that is,
tamed "upside down" and "down side
up." Don't be frightened. It will not
hurt them to "stand on their heads." I re-
member that about forty, years ago, when
my father kept some fifty or minty colonies
in the "old box hive," he used to winter
them in a little house built for the purpose,
filled in with sawdust four to mix inches
thick all eound, still standing on the old
homestead where I live and he used to
stend the* all " tilieir heads," as the
neighbors used to say. They wintered very
well, and his lessee were comparatively
small. The fernier bee -keeper with s few
colonies in box hives need not, therefore,
fear to turn hie hives bottom up when in the
cellar, as they will be much more likely to
come through all right that way than the
other way. They should, however, be
placed well up from the cellar 'floor—the
nearer the ceiling the better. If turned up
put a thielinas or two of woolen cloth or
cotton and wool quilt over the open top.

At this season of the year there is
much lost time. It will pay to give the
matter of feeding more attention. 0 Cut-
ting the fciod is regarded as an expense
of tabor by some, but there is always a
gain in weight of the animals when the
feod is prepared.
Sugar beets will benoundexcellent for
cows at this season. Whether beets are
grown for sugar or for feeding they will
prove valuable in winter. The labor of
growing beets has been greatly lessened
(luring recent years, the planting of the
seed, covering and marking of the rows
now being done by seed drills.' With
the appliances in use a field of beets can
be grown at easily as a small patch by
