EXPLANATION OP THE CALENDAR PAGES.
LEFT HAND PAGE.
Column.
1 & 2 — Contain the days of the month and of the ■week.
3 & 4 — The rising and setting in mtan time of the highest point, or of
the upper limb of the Sun, corrected for refraction.
6 — Days' length in hours and minutes.
G — Eciuation of time, (or quantity by -which the sun is alow or fast
of tlie clock at noon, apparent, not mean, time at Greenwich,
or at a quarter before 8 o'clock in the morning at Halifax.)
7 — The Sun's declination for the same as the Equation, 6th col.
8 — Tlie rising or setting of the Moon — the setting being given
from the New to the Full Moon, and the rising from Full to
New Moon.
9 — The place of the Moon in the Ecliptic.
10 — The time of the Moon's southing or passing the meridian.
This column also gives the time of High Water at Parrs-
boro', Horton, Cornwallis, Windsor, Newport, Truro, &c.
The top of the columns of each month gives the Moon's phases, or
times of New and Full Moon, and of the first and last quarters, or two
quadratures with the Sun.
The Farmer's Calendar is placed at the foot of the columns of
each mouth.
RIGHT HAND PAGE. „;:i ; r

1 — Contains the days of ihe month. "'' ' '
2 — Sundays, Weather, Anniversaries, &c. ' , .
3— The time of High Water at Halifax, N. S. • ■ ' • 1 '
4— " " " Pictou.N.S., and CapeTormentine, P.E.I.
6— « " « Annapolis, N. S., St. John, N. B., and
Portland, Maine.

of that tide which immediately precedes the southing of the Moon,
These four columns are computed on the supposition that the time of
High Water on the days of New and Full Moon ( L' establissment du
port) is at Halifax, 7h. 30m. — at Annapolis, St. John, N. B., and
Portland, llh. 14m. — at Pictou and Cape Tormentine, lOh. — and St.
John's, Newfoundland, 6h. 30m.
All the calculations are made to mean solar time, which has super-
seded the qld mode of reckoning by apparent time.
The Planers. — The hour of meridian, passage, right ascension,
and declination of each of the principal planets, is given for the \st
and 15fAof each month — to which is added the mean time transit cp,
or the mean time of transit of the first point of a Arieties, being the
mean time corresponding to OA. Cm. 0«. of Sideral time on each of those
days. By the aid of this table the time of the meridian passage of any
heavenly body may be readily found. From the right ascension of the
body subtract the retardation, which is at the rate of 83s. .for each
hour, or 16s. for each minute of its R. A. ; add the remainder to the
mean time transit fp ; the sum, divide if necessary, by 24A., will be the
mean time of the meridian passage of the body in question. For any
other day than the 1st and 15th of the month, apply a correction at the
rate of 3w. 55.91s. per day, reckoned from the nearest given day, to
be added if for a n c^arlier day, subtracted if for a later day.

iMACjiNE, for a moment, what a difference it -n-ould nmke in the pleasures of the conn-
try, in tho plcftsures of every ouo who ever pioes into the country, if our lands, instead
of being marred and deformed, as is often the ease, by the hand of ignorance and iu-
differ-L-nce, were embellished by taste and art — if every fiinnhouse were itself an object
of beauty, if every cottajre pleased the eye. if the fertile and well-managed tields, the
ample barns, the tine cattle so often seen had in the home of tho farmer its ftarden and
lawn, its trees and tlowers and shrubbery, its m'atnes.s .and order, their appropriate
and becomint; crown and ornament. All this mi^jlit easily be, with scarcely an addi-
tional expense, if the desire and t.-iste were not wanting;. Flowers and a snuHith lawn
around a dwellin,!? require but little attention or money ; and as for trees, the most beau-
tiful for shade or ornament are the jzrowth of our native woods. ^Vllilst the chief olyect
of the f irmer's attention must be, and shouM be, the increa- 1; of his crops, the care of
his cattle, the adding to his yearly profits. In- still has time enon;;h, and he ous;ht to
have Boul and spirit enough, for other and higher objects, the improvement of his miud
and tho cultivation of his ta«te.

The column of the moon's southing gives the time of high water at
Parrsboro', Cornwallis^ Horton^Hautsport, Winsor, Newport, Trtiro, &c.
Good nuinagement and pystt-m are eqnsvlly necessary to success in fi»rmin-g. If
farmers intend to "make money," they must keep up with the times, study their
business, and adopt new implements and l.-^>.t><>r-8avini^ machines. Old sayings, old
maxims, and old tools are poor capital, aivl double th.3 money wouM be made if greater
liberality was used in manaj^emeut. Wo try to live by starvintr our laisiness, and in
turn irct starved by it — a result which no reasonable man ean find fault with. It ia
an old saying that '• INIore corn (i'rows u.'i crotiked rows than on straight " — and why ?
Because every liody plants crooked rows. Now, still nioro would grow im straight
om>s if every Ijody laiil tliem strnipht. 5*0, likewise, every larnier who ploughs
Btraiglit furrotVH raises tho litrgest crops. " Why so ? " a«ks the reailer. Because the
man wlio ^(Av,^• pniti-K to ii'o tfiingf: will is nlw.iy^ most suicessful. Whoever will tarn
over straiirht and eren furrows will lio oUior thhigrt equally well; there is no slip-
shod ikriniiig about him — no broken fences, no giant weeds, no ricitety tiwls, but all
i.s neat aud tlourisliing. Show me the style in which a man plouj^hs his fields, and I
will tell you whether he is u good or bad liirmer.

should bo the moat desirable and inviting place. An air of neatness and eleganco
should be given to the school house, and in point of finish and furniture it should be
equal to the l>est room of a private residence. Children would resp(!Ct such a bitild-

which would save many a bitter les6(jn of murtiflcation.

The column of the moon's southing gives the time of high water at
Parrsboro' , Cornwallia, Horton, Hautsport, Windsor, Newport, Truro, &c.
The commoii vice of jumping and throwing fences is tattqht to cattlo, with scarcely
an exception, by their owners and cari!-takors. Fences liulf down soon fall by the
rubbing of cattle, and teuch the tirst lesson, especially if cattle have any shrewdness
in observing cause and effect ; very fine feed just over a pour fence is the next les-
son ; letting down bars and rail fences to the halves from laziness, so that the animal
has to take a leap, is tlie third lesson — and this last is often first, second, and third,
with sheep — until they will scale any thing. The.'^o three lessons are usually quite
enough ; but a fourth is often added, namely, i)la :ing one additional rail on the fence
eich successive day, as they become more skilful, for the ostensible object of keeping
the jumper within bounds, but roally operating as a most ingeninus contiivance to teach
the art of vaulling. Let the wood lie cut iu [iroper sea.sini — have ncirie rotting about
tlie premises. It should be put undercnver in a wondlion-^e ; this is good economy. It
should also be neatly piled, not tumbled and pitched in helter-skelter, and cross-
wise, like a brush heap. The more e.vact you are in this, the more the house will hold.

^^ Tho column of the moon'H soutliing eivcs the time of high water at
Parrsboro', Cornwallis, Horton, Haiitsport, Windsor, Novport, Truro, &c.
A WRITER, in spcnking of tho practice which prevails In some families of keeping a
portion of tho dwelling almost wholly closed, says, Let the front part of that house he
thrown open, and the most convenient, agree.ilile, and pleasant room in it be selected
as tho famili/ room — let its doors be over open ; and when the work of the kitchen. is
com))leted, let mother and daughters be found there with their appropriate work. Let
it be the room where the family altar is erected, on which the father offers the morn-
ing and evening sacrilico. Let it be consecrated to neatness, au<l purity, and truth.
Let no hat ever be seen in that room on the head of its owner ; let no coatless individ-
ual be permitted to enter it. If the coat father wears by day is tcx) heavy for tho
evening, calicoi^s and cotton wadding are cheap. A few shillings placed in his dangh-
ter's hand insures him the most comfortable wrapper ; and if his boots are hard, and
the nails cut mother's carpet, a bushel of wheat ouce i/x three years will keep him in
slippers ot'tho easiest kind.

Sheep should not generally he sheared before June. After haring been 'sheared,
thoy should bo protected by shade from the hot sun. and if the weather turns cold,
or a storm arises, they should be allowed the shelter of sheds. Throe or four days
after the sheep arc sheared, tho ticJ.s, if there are any, will all go on to tho
lambs. Immerse the lamb.s in a weak <lfCiiction of toliacco, and you will|thus got :id
of them. Take care to wet the skin fairly, but do not keep tho lamb too !on;4 in the
liquid, and take care that it does not ,r;et into liis ears, eyes, or mouth. R9 it will make
hiin sick. Ticks occasion the .sheep much trouble — to relievo themselves from the in-
tolerable itching which the ticks create, the sheep bite and .scratch themselves with
their teeth, by which much wool U pulled out and wa.sted. and the sheep, besides,
lose flesh rapidly. Ths mode here mentioned i.s the readiest one of e.xtirpating them.
It is Bomethues an ohjei;t to fatten Hh>ep rapidly in summer, and also to fatten off
old sheep which cannot be readily fattened on pa-iture alone. In eiiher case, grod
pasture and the feeding of a moderate ijuantitv of uraln d'lily vvlll generally effect it
odvantagcouslv. One bushel of grain fed to sheep iu sui imer will make as much fat
as three or four fed iu winter.

The column of the moon's southing gives the time of high water at
Parrsboro', Cornwallis, Horton, Hantsport, Windsor, Newport, Truro, &c.
The true test of ability in farming, all tlio world over, is tlie greatest amount of
success in the mnnagenient of those two practical antipodes, coxt and result. A niau
who may raise enormous crops at a cost of ten tim.'s all that the.so crops will repay —
or who may compel liis farm lalwrers, however industrious and efficient they may be,
to work without tools, or at best, to lioe his corn with a garden trowel, or to water
his cattle in an egg shell — would bo set down as decidedly n bad manager. On the
contrary, the farmer who applies his means in the best possible manner to obtain tho
greatest amount of results, whether by enriching his land ultimately, or increasing
its immediate products — who turns all the currents of wastes into profitable channels
— sliows that tho touch of his hand is that of a ma-ster, and that he pos.«esseH tho triw
philosopher's stone, whic h turns all his applied energies into gold. There are other
very iiniiortaut requisites iu frood farniiu;?. but they are all accomplished with an in-
crease of expeniliture and labor. Manuring is a most powerful means for improve-
n»eut. Under draining has wrought wonderful results, but the cost is always a large
item ; and the same may be said of duvp 4)loughiug and subsoiling.

There should be in every town, villKKC, or district, ti '* Farmers' Club," not consist-
ing merely of a few of tho moro woiilthy, but of the entire body of farmers. This
club should o^/n a lil)rary of agricultiiri'. consi8tln(? not only of the more popular
class of a{!;rieulturiU publioations, but also of all the En;;lish and American .standard
works on this .suWect. In this way a va,st amount of instruction and informatiuu
might be derived, md the expense, wlum divided amonjx a largo number, would not
be very considerable. This club should hold Iroijuent meetings, in which discussions
on various topics, the communication of individual experience and the results of pri-
vate reading, should form the distinctive feature. In other occupations men club
together to maintain the position of their craft ; they call for tlie jirolection of their
interests, and they tind n;eans to secure their ends. And wlion ovv farmers come to
feel the truth of the remark which i>oliticians love to weave into their honeyed speech-
es, that the '' bone and sinew" of the province lies in them, they will then go man-
fully to the Legislative Asseml)ly for the riglits wliich have too long been intrusted
to those who neither sow nor reap, nor gatlier into barns, but eat the fruits of others'
labors.

^.^ The column of the moon's southing gives the time of hi^ water at
Parrsboro', flornwallis, Horton, Hantsport, Windsor, Newport, Truro, &c.
The farmer now realizes the reward of his toil, labor, and attention. He is ready
to burat into song.s of gratitude to Uim '' who causes bread to spring out of the earth,
and who loads all with blessings." Is it not labor that makes a man happy? 'Would
not the soul, for want of exertion, become enfeebled and enervated? Society would,
indeed, be in a wretched state. Then move on, and crowd your garners with the
golden ears ; till your cellars and bins to tho brim ; gather in the fruits of your gar-
duns and your orchards; let nothing be wasted or lost. Leave not your tools in tho
field, as the manner of some is, who do business without system or order. Your good
wife is, no doubt, engaged in doors, iind understands her business — industrious,
care-taking, active and obliging. There is nothing better for a fai-mer than a good
wife. Much of the success, prosperity, and comfort of every farmer depends upon the
managemout of his in-door concprns by his wife. If we look around us, we shall soo
that wherever there is a wife of the right s^amp, if thi husband possesses ordinary
ability and industry, they will be prosi)erous.

Srcii preparations for winter as have not already been made sliould bo attended to
without deiii}-. Doine.stic animals should he provided withcomluitablu sliel er. This
is a duty enl'orced by the obliiratioua of huniauity. as well as a matter of policy iii a
pecuniary view. Animals should bo kept dry in winter. Farmers that have not al-
ready suitable buildings for their stock may readily make those which will serve for
a while. Sheds for sheep may be made of boards, rails, or pole.<<. If the latter are used,
they may be thatched with straw; they will afford good protectiou. Sleds should bo
got ready for use at a minute's warninfc, for none can tell how soon the snow may
come, and the first that falls of sufficient depth should lie improved. Imidements
not ill use sliould be houscMl. Slock should not be pinched the fore part of the winter
— it had better bo done the latter part of winter, as tliey will then have to he kept
poor a less time. But with the t;eneral abuudanco of forage the last season, there
will, with prop^jr economy, be no necessity of any stock suil'cring for food.

OriXlONS OF THE PRESS.
AVc notice with much pleasure the appoarnncc of a second Erllfion of
BF:.r,cni:u's Map or Nov.v-8cotia. 'I his Map, ori,i,'inany compiled in
bSIii from actual surveys, by AVilhiim McKfiy, lias now been revised, and
corrections down to tlic ])rcscnt, year liavo l)i'cn cnrctuUy introdmi-d.
We observe that the piojectcd lines of Railway arc raarkc d nut, and the
routes and stations of the 'J'clcL-raph line nre also indifated. A late
Edition of a correct Map is one of the most ucsiraldc possessions. Wo
bespeak, th( refore, a speedy and extensive sale for 13clchcr's Map of
Xova-L^cotia. — Provincial H 'ci^hytii.
Bklchku's Map or Xova-Scotia. — Good Office-Maps of our own
Proviace have, for sonic years past, been in preat demand ; but we have
not this want to complain of any longer, now that a second Edition of
Belcher's excidlent Map is in the market. This is a great improvement
upon the old one. iM'rors which must have bL-rn ail but unavoidable at
the time the Map of 1834 was published, and which liecame niore apparent
as the interior of the country came to be better known, have in tliis Map
been, for the mnst part, carefully correitod. Not '.he least valuable of
tdc many additions made, is the liyinp; down of the several lines of
Railway lately surveyed, and the eouiscs of the Telegraph lines and tlic
niarkiii"ir '•■t of localities where the Telep.raph offices are situated. The
corrccticons and improvements reflect much credit upon the draughts-
man, and must have cost him no small amount of labour. Tlie execu-
tion of the work is, in the highest dciji-ee, admirable. — .kadian Recorder,
Bhlcueu's Mai" op Nov.\-Sco";i.\ — A second edition of whii h has
just been published, is a work that should be in every house in the
Province. Besides beiiir; correct, it is on a much larrjcer scale than any
other Map of the same kind, being ■') leet 2 inches l.>y '2 feet ; and as set
forth in the advertisement which r.[)pcars in anoiher column, it has been
revised and corrected, and tlie ncv,- Counties and rownships. formed since
its first publication, accurately laid down, together with the proposed
Railwavs through the I'rovince, and the routes and stations of the I'ele-
graph fine. — British Colonist.

corner beyond which lies the fair way of Provincial prosperity, such a
referrnce as the one before us is invaluable. In addition to the bounda-
ries, Src, of the several Counties of Nova-Scotia proper, and the routes
of the Railway already projected, it includes the Inland of Ca])e Breton
and the proposed improvements in that interesting locality, all of which
have been compiled from the most careful surveys and the latest ar-
rangements No person interested in the country who can atf,)rd the
cost, should be without a copy, William McKay, of this City, is the
