It prevents the plants heaving (nit by alternate freezing and thaw- ing. Strawy litter from the barnyard an- swerewell ; waste hay wilido, but there is a danger of seeding the groued with tiniothy, should it happen to have been too ripe when cut. Provide grape posts if necessary ; also stakes for raspberries atad blackberries. Haul and spread manure while the ground is frozen: there is little danger of losing its virtue if exposed in this way, provided the fields are level where it is epread. Plan for new tools needed and for trees and plants wanted. On mild dar\-s prune any grape vines that have been neglected. Fruit trees may also be looked after. Mature plans for spring work. Order trees and plants early, before the assortment is broken up. Pat- ronize fixens of established reputation. Buy direct to avoid being taken in by middle- men. While the evenings, are long, study books and papers that pertain to your call- ing. Attend Farrners' Institutes, Granges, and Horticultural meetings whenever possi- ble. Ask questions and take part in discus- sions, and come in contact with your fellow - laborers. ---Farmers' Advo mete. smeeemwolonoomilawee 1111111111111111.11 IMPORTANT NOTICES. 0 .CONTRACTOBS.—Se }bled tenders for the erection of a Brick Soh col House, on the town line between Hey and Ste phen, near T.
