crosses and the doors which were of heart oak plank planks two wo inches thick were strongly bound to together getter with irow bars in form ot of crosses strongly riveted to the door indeed everything abour about the house llad lind an air of antiquity built buill without v any parti particular order onder of it was however convenient and had the usual apartments that a are re necessary to make a farm horse useful and c commodious mm odious the old house was divided from the farm yard by a neat picket fence and in the inclosure was a grassplot grass krass plot piot with Jessa mines and Honeysuckle honeysuckles Honey noney suckles 3 carelessly trai trained ried around the doors and windows which gave pave it a rural appearance and at the same gaye pave a charming fragrant air of air alf evening and in the morning around tho the dwelling adjoining the house were ware the farm yard with its usual appendages and a fine largo large pond well stored with tench tanch eels perch and other fresh water gish fish which gave an occasional amusement in angling besides a good mesa of fish for the table was aiso also connected the orchard well stocked with a choice collection of fruit

that tha amor g those eglish eglash farm fan tanners ners era whilst the products of the die farm are looked to for supplying the financial means the garden is considered as essential to the domestic domestic comforts of the family the garden consisted of little more than half an acre and wag veas in form of an oblong square su rounded surrounded by a hawthorn live fence or as it ia is called a quickset quick set hedge which was waa kept neatly trimmed ed every year for eco economy pomy romy the hedge was planted with choice plum trees at regular distances all around which gave a good supply of plums the garden was divided in in the centre with a walk six feet wide that led from the garden gate gat at the west to the east end where was a rustic summer bonse bouse covered with honeysuckles Honey suckles jessamine and the cottage rose at this end was a walk planted on each side with small dwarf varieties of apples plums and fruit of various kinds thickly together there were also many varieties of shrubs as lilacs snowballs laurels Laurestin las fas etc planted all around this delightful retreat there was also a small plot allotted to the younger members embers in of the family for a flower parden garden family and well do I 1 remember how ow cheerfully we rambled together early in the spring in in 1 search of u wild flowers to decorate the little parterre and often at eve have the family retired to this sequestered spot and sat in silence to hear bear the warbling 11 0 of the nightingale that paid his annual visit vilt to this favorite spot to cheer us with his bis melodies this thib part was also the retreat of family visitors w who 0 while interchanging their were regaled with the delicious fruit growing in profusion around them the walk was planted on each side with choice plum trees in pairs as the green gage ther thet the orleans and other choice kinds which were ii ir tere eted with the old red rough or ironmonger Gooseberry for or preserving and gooseberry

odthe of the greatest sources ofton of comforts contorts forts to every part of the family k it is often argued as an excuse that farmers have no time to attend a garden or that it willa not pay it is quite clear that every person who begins to make a good garden mut bo be at a considerable sid erable outlay before be he can realize the benefits re resulting buiting suiting from his perseverance
