It is sometimes as much as 15 mantes before or after 12, when its shadow strikes the noon mark on the sun-dial Thus on January 25, when the Sun is on the noon mark, the watch must be set 12 min. 44 seconds past 12, which will be the true time. The practice of setting time-pieces by the rising or setting of the Sun or Moon is not strictly correct, as the uneveness of the earth's sur "^fice and intervening objects, such as hills and forests, near the points of rising of the Sun and Moon, also the refraction of the Sun's rays occasion a deviation in every place from the time expressed in the Almanack, which time is adapted to a smooth level horizon. The only means of keeping correct time is by the use of a meridian line or Bun-dial. V ft i ■ >- I ^ V I'f ' >► r ^ 1862.] ALMANACK. EXPLANATION OP THE CALENDAR PAOI*.

Ei|ua- tion of time is the difference between mean and apparent time; and there are only four periods of the year when this difference is nothing; namely, about April 16, Jane 15,.

Thb keeping ofroads in good repairmay be generallj conceded as an ob- Jeetofmaeh importance, so \o>ag as men merely talk about the matter ; but it leems to be otherwise when thoy are called upon to whrkt if the reluctance, indUTerenoe, sbirkine, and dislike to tbnt duty upon the publfo highways, may be taken as indfcsftions ofjtlie real state of sentiment existing on the Boluect. The indifference whi^h many display In regard to keeping roads in good repair, and their unwillingness to do their proportion of work upon the public highways, have often be«n matters of snrpriHc. For months we have sera farmers plunging through rough, nieking and muddy places, with in- Jury to carta and teams, when a very little work would have removed the wlMledifilonlty and the cause of it— but then others would liave been bene- fitted by their work as well as themselves ; and therefore, though right in sight of their own windows, and though passing it frcQu^itly, the ugly ob- stittotlon stands unrepaired for months, just because aume otliers would' have received a UW/e benefit^ even though they would have secured to themselves many time* more. This is truly au astonishing exhibition of selfishness and perrerted and^epraved human nature. . . 4 r •> >-- , Mi*!

KVERY farmer has now decided on which field to sow this o» tliat particu- lar crop. He now onlr nwaits fine weather and a dry soil to commence oper- ations. In the mean time there is worlc enough to do. Ploughs, harrows, rollers, carts, harness, &c.. should be examhivd, and if repairs are need- ed, they should be made before the busy season commences. Seed wheat, potatoes, oats, timothy, clover, peas, &c., should now be procured. Thesnortnessofonr sowing season malces it pre-eminentlv desirable that the farmer, above all others, should take time by tiic forcloclc. Too many neg^lect all preparation for their spring woric, and when the fine weather oomes, having everything to do in a lew wcelcs, they are in too great a huhry to do anything well. They must flop over a furrow 16 inches wide, ■oratoh it a little with a liarrow, sow the seed, and trust to " good luck" and a virgin soil for a harvest. #' in t t t VSf r r "f 8 8 n anc ; '■ * ■MM* MWiihiCU Spring.] APRIL 30 days. 13 Ephemeris of the principal Planets.

That onions arc a healthy, palatable food, when properly cooked, there can be no doubt, and yet how few farmer* raise 20 bushels a year? How seldom are they seen on a farmer's table ? — twice the amount of nutriment can be raised, in this climate, from an acre of onions as from an acre of potatoes. Onions are better adapted to our dry, hot summers, than turnips, potatoes, Ac, and it is surprising' tuey receive so little attention. But it may be said tliey require much more labour in preparing^ the e^round, sowing and weedine. It is true they require a little more labour, but if the ground is thoroughly prepared, and manure fi-ec from seeds is used, and the onions are sown in rows 15 inches apart, and the hoe is run through them as soon -as the plant can be distinguislied from the weeds, the trouble and expense attending the crop need be but little more than that of any other hoed crop. \ / 1-i L \^ ^.^ Spring.'

I Particular attention should be paid to the milking of cows. Children { should never be trusted with this business, and there are many grown peopl* | who never milk well, though they have been brought up to the ousincss. If you would obtain all the milk from the cow, you must treat her with the ut- | most gentleness ; she must not staind trembling uudfr your blows or threats. I After the bag has been brushed, and the ends of tlie teats been moistened, the I milk must be drawn speedily, or you will not get the whole. You must not ! sit and talk — you must not delay one momeut, if you would have all the i milk she is ready to give. A careful and expeditious milker will obtain more i milk from a cow, especially if it be the person who has been in the habit of I milking her, than a slow careless milker. If farmers would consider the much greater quantity of milk a cow will yield in a season that is in good condition in the Spring, than one that has " been on the lift," we are couli- dent there would not be so many skeleton cows on oiir farms as there now ai«. ! li E.

Horses that are kept up, or in the stable, all the year through, and espe- cially when tpey have no change or variety of food, but only nay and oats everlastingly, are very apt to get indigestion, or derangement of the stomach or bowels, in the form of want of appetite. feTerishncss, quick breatliing, colic, gnawings of old wood, &c. Wlien a horse kept in the stable all the time falls oif m flesh, or in appetite, or has any of the above symptoms, the most natural and simple mode of management is to change his food, as by giving him roots, or corn stalks, or green fodder, or turning him tiirough the day to grass. When the bad symptoms do .not yield to the employment of some such change of diet, perhaps the next best thing to do, would be to make use of the following powders, which have been prescribed by Dr. Dadd for a case of this kind : — Powdered gentian 1 oz., do. ginger J oz., do. charcoal 1 07.., mix tlioroughly and divide into 8 equal parts.

I Autumn Transi*l ANTING.— Apple trees are very hardy, and generally Bucceed best if set out in Autumn, as the soil becomes well settled about them, and they have nothing: to do early in the Spring but to commence grow- ing. In this way they gut au earlier start. If the routs of a Fall transplanted apple tree are examined in Spring about the usual time for digging trees, u new set of rootlets will be found pushing out from the old ones, at least a week or two in advance of any that may be emitted by Spring set trees. If, however, they are dug in the fall and well laid in, the same rootlets will bo formed early in spriu<>:, and Kuch trees, if set out carefully so as not to injure these, will possess a decided advantage over such as are dug in spring. Cher- ry and pear trees are nearly as hn.-dy as theapple, andmay ueadvantageuusly removed in autumn, if the precautions pointed out are observed. It is abso- lutely necessary in all cases, and with all sorts of trees, to secure them from being blown about by the wind. / [1 802. orizon. lorizon . ^ 10 14 ^ 11 r 11 46 r M. 32 r 1 19 8 2 7 8 2 56 n 8 45 n 4 34 n 5 22 ss 6 9 gto 6 66 ^. 7 41 ^ 8 27 9 14 ■^ 10 2 »z 10 58 :&: J' 11 48 d2.

There is no-^great amount of labor to be douo out of doors rluriug' this month. The most important labor of the farmer now, is tlie care of his domestic animals, to see tlicy be well slioltorod from cold and wet, and properly fed and watered. Tlio year's i)rofit or loss depends g^reatly upon the manner in which he winter's his stock. The milk of the* ensuing season, the wool, and tlie ability for labor, all depend in a great measure upon the care the farmer gives his cattle, sheep and horses, during the winter, Kogu- lar hours for attonding to all matters, is important, but ni no department of the farmer's business is it more important tlian in milking cows, foddering or feeding, watering or carding stock. Cattle should Ije fed often, and but little at a tlm«, — say three or four times in the twenty-four hoin-s, will keep cattle in better condition and at less expense than to feed but twice a day, being careful never to give tliem so much at a time that tliey will leave their feed uefore it is all consumed.
