FARM CALENDAR FOR JULY, 1
FARM CALENDAR FOR JULY, 1 The fields and wood, arrayed in various tints of green, now display fewer flowers v.hile the moors and the moun- tains are beeomins? gay with the purple bloom of the heath and wild thyme, and the golden-coloured flowers of the "hin and the broom. The harebell and other dedicatelv formed flowers spangle the short herbage. In plens and wooded dells the fragrante of the wild rose and the honev sueklc perfume the air, while the pasture fields are scented with «hitc clover. In gardens the flowers arc now of brighter colours. The chief of these-the rose-is in full blrnm, The wild as wrll cultivated roses are now full of delight, The Greek poet Anaereon thus sings:- Rose, thou art the sweetest flower That ever drank the an,ber showcr; Rose, thou art the fondest child Ot dimpled Spring, the wood-nyinps wild. The feathered Songsters are seldom heard this month, the most of them being now mute. 2\one of the summer visi- tors arrive or depart in July. Towards the close of the month the swift begins to congregate, preparatory to taking flight to sunnier chrues. THE FAKM. — Hay-making and the cleaning of the root crops now demand the diligent attention of the farmer. A command of labour is important for expeditiol, and for the proper performance of the operations connected with the singling out of the p! :nts and the destruction of weeds. The success of the after crops is creatly dependent upon the manner and the period at which the plants are sing- led. IIAY-MAKING.—The mixed grasses if not already cut should be mown immediately any increase in bulk is at the expense of the quality of the hay, and of the growth of the aftermath. Ryegrass and clover mixtures should lie in the swathe until ready for being coilcd. Natural or meadow grasses should bo tedded preparatory to beins collected into windrows to be coiled. In making hay from either cultivated or natural grasses, the size of the cocks should be regulated by the dryness of the grasses, and by the b'alp of the weather. All the operations, cutting, ted- ding, coiling, and raking, should be performed when the dew is off the grass. The stubble-rakes are suitable for raking the dry t;r.iss as the swathes are lifted. The period in the coil should be regulated by the condition of the Jtrnes as- to dryness, and the size of the tramprick, °r stack into which it. is built. The value of hay is greatly depen- dent. upon the condition in which it is put together. Rain is most injurious, deteriorating the quality. Tho study should therefore be to hnve it saved without exposure to a howpr, The cutting of upland, meadows, and of grasses Oil mountain pastures should be executed towards the close of the month. When delayed until August the grasses have lost a portion of the nutriment they contain, and with the demand for labourers to secure the corn crops, it is some- times found impossible to cut and collect all the grasses suitable for making into hay for the winter keep of the stock un thc fanl. Salt may be added when the hay is put into tramp-rick or s'aok—one lb. of salt lo a cwt. of hay, or, in other terms, 20 ibs. to each ton of hay is sufficient. CUTTING can be performerl bv a mowing machine or by the scythe. Farrccrs using mowing machines this season find that the cutting is done equal, and in some cases supe- rior to that executed by scythes. When cutting is execu- ted by the acre,care is necessary that the stubble is left low and level. The usu »1 rate is from 2s (id to 3s fid per imperial aci e. SINGLING OUT OP THI; ROOT Citors. —Where the plants are not sufficiently advanced to admit of singling, tin; side of the rows may be pared by the hand-hoe. This, while tÍls:roying weeds, will, by removing the crusted surface, produce a more vigorous growth of the plants, the single horse grubber should follow the pari.ig of the sides of tlril's. By the frequent use of the grabber and hoe the growth of weeds is kept under or whony prevented the stirring of the soil is also highly favourabfe for the healthy and vigorous growth of the cultivated crops. Mangold and turnip plants can be expeditiously singled by hand. Daring dry weather the growth of Swedish turnips is retarded if plaed on their sides in the process of singling hence it is adr:sclble to thin out the plants by hand-this is even more nectssary WII.II carrot and mangold- Plants of the yellow and white ^arielies of the turnip are not injured by the earth being pailiallj removed from the roots, except during (,rt i ) ,i;til i ii I I 3 fro:)-, the i*oots ?he hoe, while very arid weather; and in singling these, the hoe. while being the most expeditious, by clearing away the weeds, is the n;o,t suitable. Rows of mangold and Swedes singled by hand should be gone over with the hand-hoe, to destroy weeds and loosen the surface soil. After singling carrots, mangolds, or Swedes, surface-manuring may he resorted to. In the growth of carrot and mangold, the expenditure in procuring manure is generally more than repaid by the increase in the weight of roots. Peruvian guano is very suitable, also phosphatic guanos treated with sulphuric acid. The manure should be applied and stirred into the soil previous to a fall of rain. The growth of the ro(,t crops, and in many instances the bnirding of the seed, Lave bren retarded by the drought. Where the spell has not brairded, it should be examined, and if the vitality is destroyed, re-sowiug should immediate- ly be proceeded viii. Pur pIc-top yellow is suibble, also green and white globe, But the season is so advanced LLttt a full crop of roots cannot now be produced upon or- dinary soils, and under ordinary conditions as to situation. In certain circumstances rape may be substi'ut'.d for tur- nip, but as a root ciop is so important for the keeping of stock during winter and spring, every means should be used to increase the amount of roots. Upon stiff retentive soils where a braird of turnips has not been secured, it may be advisable to plough the land, preparing it by a plain fallow for a cereal crop. If the drills have been formed along the line of the ridges, it is advisable to plough the land across. After two nos, furrows, the field should be ridged, and the furrows allowed to remain exposed to the action of the at- mosphere, or it may be reduced to a fine mould to induce a growth of weeds. The vegatable growth thus caused when ploughed down will act as manure to the succeeding crop. The brairding of the seeds of annual weeds will render the land less subject to their growth until the land is again seeded by the shedding of the seeds of weeds ripened among the cultivated crops. Wild mustard is a pest on most clay soils, particularly on those reclaimed from the sea. PLAIN FALLOW"; if not already formed into ridges, should be ploughed up into ridges of equal breadth. The breadth and forin of the ridge should be regulated rather by the character of the soil and the amount of rain, than by local practice. Ridges of eighteen feet in width are very common, and on the whole are found to be vpry conveni- ent for the operations of ploughing, sowing, reaping, &c. If the land is thoroughly drained the ridges should be flat if undrained it is necessary to so form the ridges that the centre or crown be elevated one or two feet above the edge of the furrow. Lime, lime-compost, or farmyard manure should be applied and turned down with a light furrow. In applying lime or lime-compost the surface should be finelv reduced, and after the application is evenly spread the grubber should be used, followed by the harrow to incorpo- rat the ltme or compost with the soil. lly this means the I action oi the manure is more immediate, and the pecuniary results more uniformly successful. DRAINING OJ'KUATIONS, where not completed on lands under a plain fallow, should be pushed. On certain soils —retentive, homogenous subsoils, drains do not act imme- diately, it is only after natural crevices are formed that the superfluous moisture finds an outlet by the drains. On lands under grass, or in a state of nature, drains can be formed during summer with considerable advantage. The carting of the materials goes forward expeditiously and the the bottoms of the drains are more cleanly cut than when operations proceed when the land is saturated with water in winter or spring. If the surface is hard, or otherwise difficult to penetrate with the spade, a plough should be used to break the surface-tlie plough forming two or more furrows in each line of drain. The forming of open drains and sheep walks is usual!y performed during summer. The plough can be used with advantage in forming surface drains. Where the farm-horses arc not otherwise required they can be employed in carting forward drain tiles for those fields under crop, so that upon the removal of the crop operations can be immediately commenced. Besides the convenience of having the draining materials brought to the farm during summer, the tiles are generally of bettter quality than those manufactured late in autumn or during winter. Not only is the clay better prepared, but the burning is generally more equal. PASTURES should now be relieved of part of the stock, to induce a more luxuriant herbage forthe autumn months. If cattle are depastured, a portion can be removed to the courts and fed upon cut grass and tares. If well advanced in condition, the allowance of cake should be regulated by the quality of the green food, and the period it is intended to keep the cattle previous to disposing of them in the fat market. If sheep stock is kept in the field a portion may be removed to a field of aftermath, if not ready for the mar- ket. If the stock is ewes and lambs, the lambs should be removed to the field of aftermath, and care taken that they do not get through the fences to their (lams. SHERr STOCK now require to be watched to prevent fly- blow and broken-heads. Dipping the sheep in an arsenic bath or in tobacco-liquor bath, tends to rliminsh the liability to fly-blow, and insect attacks generally. On certaiu lands, especially in the vicinity of plantations, there is always some danger of fly-blow, particularly during warm damp showery weather. Those sheep affected with looseness, particularly when the wool is soiled, are generally the first attacked. Any sheep found separated from the rest, and those which, when raised up, run with their head down and wriggling the tail, may be looked upon as affect- ed with maggots. The sheep caught and exanined careful- ly particularly the hind quarters rub wet quick-liine, or a preparation of calomel. Some shepherds apply brown spi- rits to the parts, but this is more liable to injure the sheep than calomel or lime. BROKEN HEADS can be either protected by a canvass hood, the parts of the skin abraded being covered with pitch or a composition of tar, sulphur, and oil. A composi- tion of oil, white-lead, asafostidia, and sulphur is one of the best salves. If the heaes are much broken and the sheep lethargic they should be removed during the day from the pasture to a house, and supplied with grcen food. Leices- ter tups frequently sutfer from broken heads, losing condi- tion, and otherwise do not sh well, either when exhibi. tell at a show, or when exposed to a merchant. DAIRY STOCK,-Thc yield of milk is dependent u pon the supply of food. Feed, therefore, regularly, giving succu- lent food. If the pasture is bare, tile cows should pass part of the day in the byre, receiving cut clover, tares, and other green food rape or linseed c.ike may also be allowed at the rate of f lb. per day. This kind of food, while in- creasing the flow of milk, renders it richer in the oleagin- ous constituents. The majority of dairy farmers do not properly appreciate nke as a source of profit by the increa- sed production of butt" or cheese. During the heat of summer, certain conditions rcquiie to be studied to sc-cure superior buttrr and cheese. Besides feeding the cows regularly, they should be as little exposed to discomfort. as is possible. If taken from the fields in which the, are depastured to the brye to be milked, they should be movcd slowly J.f the distance from the field to the brye is considerable, it is advisable to milk them in the field. Supply cut clover or tires in the field. The milk should be strained through a hair sieve as soon as it is brought, into the milk-house, which house should be kept coot and airy—heat and dampness being alike avoided. In the production of butUr the churn should be kept clean and previous to the milk being placed in it it should be washed with tepid watei. Churning may be per- formed every second day-the quantity of milk and the manner in which it is kept, regulating the period cf churn- ing. After the butter is removed from the churn it should be washed with water into which salt is dissolved, but the milk should be removed rather by pressure than by washing with water. Cheese may be manufactured from the churn- ed milk, or the milk sold or given to pigs. In the manufacturing of cheese the practice followed by the successful exhibitors of cheese at the Chester Show, should be studied and imitated closely by all dairy farmers not conversant with the best English modes of manufac- turing cheese. The report containing the information tak- en from the Journal of the Society, was lately published in the columns of the A". B. Agriculturist. The whey can be used for feeding pigs.' When meal of any of the grains is added, pigs fatten rapidly upon the offal of a dauf farm. HOUSES, when not in the yoke, should be kept in the stahle during the day. Flies disturb them when in the field, by keeping them from feeding. Those not required on the farm may be kept always in the field, or in open courts. FENCES, if not freed of weeds during the two preceding months, should now be gone over—the soil at the sides of the thorns stirred with a steel fork and grape. Young thorns are liable to be injured from the common practice of digging with the spade the roots being cut, or the bark abraded. If it is desirable to switch the sides of the fence, it may be done during the month the fence for- med into the shape of a cone. Width at the bottom is ne- cessary to secure a perfect thorn fence. Open ditches, if not scoured, should now be gone over the sides of the ditch, being sloped at an angle corresponding to the depth of the ditch, the declivity, and suitable for the character of the soil. Stone dykes may still be repaired this month, the sides and cope stones pointed with lime mortar. FIGS should be supplied with clover, tares, and other suc- culent food. A more nutritious diet requires to be given to sows in milk. Young pigs receiving whey and milk may have a little meal added to the watery diet. Those pigs de- pastured should have access to a covered shed; their Etin, if inflamed by the sun, should be rubbed with oil. This while allaying the inflammation, will act in part as a pro- tection against the sun's rays. POULTRY should receive milk or curd, the young chicks curd broken up with meal into a paste. If the poultry have access to green fields, :i supply of green vegetables is not so ,u?tab l es is not so necessary; but if confined, cabbages, lettuces, nettles, &c., cut small, should be mixed with other food. Protect tur- II key poults from damp, particularly from heavy falls of rain. To keep poultry free from insects they should have to sand in a heap to clean their plumge by a sand bath. Lime rubbish or chalk should also be accessible to them, lime necessary to ecure their general health, particularly when producing eggs. ODDS AND ExDt.—A? the labour incident to the HARVESTING of the crops commences in August, it is advisable to have all ordinary operations completed; so that no interruptions occur during the period of securing the crop. Implements of all kinds should be looked over, and any repairs necessa- ry executed the stackyard, steading, and roads, cleared of 1 "ose straw or earth the grain in sack should be thra«hed out, the grain being disposed of in the market or put into granary. Wheat on the straw intended for seed should remain on the straw until September. If the roofs of the steading are not already repaired, they should now be gone over. The insido walls of all houses can be whitewashed with lime-water. The manure ill the courts may bs carted to the field to which it is to be applied. If not ap- plied until the removal of the crop the heap should be covered with losse earth or lime compost. This pio- Wtiou will check fermentation and decay. Farm roads should be put into repair previous to the carting of the crop to the staekyatd the weeds growing at the sides of the road cut with a scythe or hook. The personal superinten- dence of the farmer noc being so necessary as during some other months, those disposed to see the fanning of other districts should embrace the opportunity this month.

A correspondent of the (Hardeners' Chronicle, wiiting from Cheshire, suggests the propriety of including manure and seed adulteration in Mr. Scholefield' bill about to be brought into Parliament for the punishment of food adulterations. The former are almost as mischievous as the latter. Daring a severe thunderstorm at Aberdeen, on Sunday morning, a blacksmith, while passing akmg the road at Nigg, in the vicinity of the city, on his way to the doctor with an inj ured hand, was struck by the ligiitiiingand killed on the spot. One of the Deeside postmen is also reported to be killed. FRENCH PROTESTANT CHAPLAINS AT THE SEAT Or WA[t. -The Lte?z, a Protestant journal in France, states that Messrs. Lequeaux, Sakler, Muntz, Schwalb, and Orth, ministers of the Reformed Church, have been appointed by the Minister of War, chaplains in the army of Italy. M. Jullien, of orchestral notoriety, is in trouble at Paris, Arrested for non-payment of a bill, he sought to placc himself under the protection of the French bankruptcy laws, and get a discharge from prison. The Tribunal of Commerce, however, have decided that as a naturalised Englishman he cannot be allowed the benefit of the Act" in France. The glcat musical entrepeneur tbcreCore re- mains in prison. Mr. Patterson, a legal practioner, has disappeared from Witham, in Essex, where he resided, leaving a heavy account with his creditors. Many, says the Essex Herald, who from his reputed weaith and general character placed implicit confidence in him, are likely to be severe sufferers- The liabilities are stated at between E.50,000 and £ 60,000, about one-half of which are secured. Several cases have been mentioned of persons who had deposited all their money in his hands at interest. The sheriff is in posses- sion, and the property is advertised for sale. TILE ATTFNirT To BiiIBL -MR. GILIIIN.-Some par- ticulars have transpired as to the attempt to bribe Mr. Gilpin, and singularly enough it appears that the author of the mischief is of the softer sex. The lady in question it; not an acquaitance of the honourable member fur North- ampton, and she represented herself to him, in writing, as authorised to offer him the choice of some position of emolument under the Tory Government, if he could bring himself to render a constant instead of an independent support.-Liverpool Mercury. It is now no secret that the selection af Lord Campbell I for the Great Seal was make in compliance-with Sir Richard Bethell's own desire-if not at his suggestion- ¡ Lord John's objections to Sir Richard's elevation to the woolsack being insurmountable-or, as it was more plea- santly put to Sir Richard, his presence in the House of Commons being indispensable, it became necessary, to find another Lord Chancellor Sir Richard absolutely refused to waive his irresistible claims to the office in favour of a contemporary—whether Sir W.P. Wood, Sir John Rotnilly, or Sir A. Cockburn. Standing and personal claims could not be pleaded against a lawer of Lord Campbell's age and position. I believe that this is the true explanation of an appointment which has so startled the public and the profession. -Loit(loit Correspondent (l tlte Manchester Guardian. COMMITTAL Of A SURGEON FOR MURDER.—A most tragical occurrence took place a few days ago at Fal- mouth. It appears from evidence given at an inquest held on Friday, before Mr. E. Carlyon, deputy-coroner, that on the preceding evening Mr. Stephen Bell, a surgeon, who has recently been in practice at Westou- super-Mare, but who is a native of Falmouth, called at the house of his mother, an invalid lady residing in the latter town, and demanded money from his two sisters. The mother had been in the habit of making him an allowance, which had been discontinued for some time, The sisters refused to give their brother any money, whereupon he became very violent, and they sent for Captain Caddy, a friend of the family, who remonstrated with Mr. Bell, but he still continued violent, and took from the wall a spear, which was placed there as an orna- ment, with which he stabbed the captain in the thigh. The wound was deep, and blood flowed profusely from it, Mr. Bulimore, a surgeon, was speedily on the spot, and rendered all the assistance in his power, but Mr. Caddy died a short time afterwards. When Mr. Bell was apprehended, he said—"I'm a gone man; 1 don't deny that I did it." He also said-CI After Captain Caddy threatened to call for the police to turn me out, I took hold of the lance, and Captain Caddy sprang upon we, and it must have occurred in this way," or words to that effect. The deceased, who was 72 years of age, was for many years in command of the Swiftsure packet. Mr. Bell is 50 years of age. The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against the latter, and he was fully com- mitted to take his trial at the ensuing assizes. NEW SAFETY-LAMP FOR ,NIINFRS.Ilr, S. S. Keniick (formerly a coal proprietor in Flintshire, but now of St. Helier's, Jersey), has exhibited, at the Royal Institution, his newly-invented safety-lamp for miners in action, his object being to provide for them more light than they ob- tain from the lamps now in use, with greater security from danger. To increase the brilliancy of the light, air is admitted into the oil pan at the top through two short thin I tubes, about I-16th of an inch in diameter; and greater security is obtained by various internal arrangements, which prevent the flame from ascending when brought into combustible air, and by giving it greater external strength- Mr. Kenrick states that no external agitation of the air ootiide the lamp can affect the flame. He is very sanguine with respect to the success of his lamp, which he says can be manufactured cheaply in large numbers. He considers, also, that oil will be found much more economical than candies, now so much used, and so exceedingly dangerous. THE NEW MINISTRY AND ECCLESI-STICAL ApPOINT. MENTS.—Connected with the Oxford contest, we cannot but notice a false rumour which has been put in circulation with the view of damaging the new Government. It has been said at Oxford that terms have been made with Lord Palmerston adverse to the Evangelical Clergy, and that. he is to be fettered in his distribution of Church patronage by his dangerous allies. We have excellent authority for staling that there is not a word of truth in the statement from first to last. It is simply intended to create a preju- dice. We look with some apprehension on Mr. Sidney Herbert, at the War Office, so far as concerns the Army Chaplains, and we hope that Dr. Manning will not so fre- quently be found, as he was during the Crimean war, en- cumbering him with help. We look also with anxiety to the distribution of the Colonial patronage by the Duke of Newcastle, although not forgetting that he sent Bishop Barker to Sydney, and never appointed a nominee of his own, if objected to by the Archbishop of Canterbury, But so far as concerns Mr. Gladstone, we rejoice to know that at the Treasury he has no scope for developing his Church ;-r;ncip!? in 'hfir resuha." whilst in regard to ?eh'g"_ principles in their results, whilst in regard to those u^her ?'pointmentsvhich belong to the Premier, hIS intiuence on Ecclesiastical matters will be altogether power e^ Record,
