PORCASTINO THE WEATHER. -" Men haTe, from a very early ^riod, studied the weather, on account of its great influence on their pursuits, in order if posaibie to predict its uLture, &nd prevent those losses to the Farmer and the Sailor which result from violeut > storms. The earlier students based their predictions on the phases of the moon, but an exananation of the Greenwich observations for more than half a century has shown that this theory is entirely unfounded. Weather prophets like Moore, Zadkiel and Vennor claim in their Almanacs to he able to forcast the weather day b^ da3 for a whole year ; but meteorological gcieuoe in the British Isleq, and the Signal Service of the United States, with the Weather Burea'i of the Dominion, does not claim to forecast, with any certainty, the weather lor more than three or four days at the aiost. If an observer could obtain, at regular and repeated interrals, readinsfs of the Barometer at stations distributed over a lan^e area, he would be enabled to tra^e the march of the storm, for it has been found that the wind always blows towards the place of the lowest barometer reading : tind so^ by means of the telegraph, he may warn those places the storm is approaching. Still, mistakes are often made, and the forecasts are not alwayn infalliabie, so that much remains to be done beforen>..*'.eorology can be ranked among the exact sciences, . .' In this Almanac all the times except for Moon's Southing are Mean Time at Halifax, t. e.. Civil Time. The Moon's Southing is given for ' Astronomical Time at Halifax. Standard Time is 15 minntes earlier than Halifax Vean liaie, and the llailwuj Time one lioiir later tlian Halifax Standard Time. OR ► QD r< o on H n B IbQJSi^ D&Y dOOBS, ST. JOHN, K. B.

Such exceptional crops are bush-beans, pole-beans, corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash ; it is only in warm sandy soils that such things can be safely put out before the end of the month. Turnips also should not be sown in May. One of the principal market- able crops in Nova Scotia is the potato. It has been found advantageous of late years to plant as early as possible ; as soon, therefore, as the ground is in fit con- dition,coniniit the potato to it ; see however, that the eyes of the seed have started into growth, otherwise it will be apt to rot in the cold seed bed. In light land the manure (old and well rotted) may be ploughed in before planting. In heavy soils, put the manure in the drills, so that the warmth of tne air may counter- act the deadening effect of the cold wet clods.

Jroteot our crops, if we would gather in a profitable harvest. Last year (18^7) une frosts made havoc in the potato fields and bean patches, especially on the night of 14th-15th June. It is easy to protect early orops by throwing some spruce or other brush over them on cold nights, or burning brush to windward »r, as to cover the field with a cloud of smoke. The Coloraidc bug is not likely to appear as early as June ; it it should, be very careful to pick off by hand, ur dust with Paris green before the dew has gone off the r'nes. As soon as the currant and gooseberry bushes have pushed out their . st leaves and early blossoms, it will be found advantageous to give them u wprinkling of whik hellebore powder in the early morning before the dew is off. Tnis will destroy the first crop of currnnt worms, and thus preserve the bushes and the fruit crop for the season. Summer bedding plants are set out in the flower garden as early this M. ft.

These results have been caused by the style of packing ; the Njw York barrel contains about 2J bushels, has flai hoops, whilst the others hold fully three bushels and have rount' hoops. Baldwins in the former sell in London at 188. per barrel, whilst in the latter they bring only 15b., 17 p. c. less, whilst the difiFerence in quantity is only 8^ p. c. A large portion of the receipts last season were ' stuffed," the middle of the barrel containing inferior fruit." The advice J ' M SiC BROWN & CO , Halifax, K.

Without it, a farm cannot be worked to advantage. Aftor ploughing, do not forget to go carefully over the water furrows to make way for tho exit of the rain and molting snows that are sure to flootl your fields before seed time. A well ploughed, well drained, field may be sown in spring as soon as tho frost is gone, whilst one tliat is irregularly ploughed, or hui no water furrows, may long remain a puddle, defying every attempt to improve its condition. Tho best part of what is too often left to be " Spring work," can be done in the month of November. All land intended for the spring sowing ol oats, peas and horse beans, should be effectively worked this mouth. Dbcbmbkr.— There are now nearly a hundred Agricultural Societies in this M. S.

This Coal is mined by the General Mining Association, Limited, of London, 0. B , at North Sydney, Cape Breton. To prevent other Goals trading npon the reputation of "Sydney," the name " JSYDNEx GOAL" was some years ago registered as a trade mark. The public are cautioned that any Goal advertised with the word '' Sydney," along with another word referring to Mine is not "Sydney Goal," ! and has no connection whatever with it. " SYDNEY " , and '• VIOTOKI/l " Goals are the only Goals mined on I Sydney Harbor. " ISYDN EY OOA.L " has long stood alone in its repu- tation for HOUSE USE. It is also an excellent STEAM I GOAL.
