Evening Wildlife
This will only happen at night when your cattle and chickens are outside. At night, sometimes wild dogs will come and try to scare off your cattle and/or chickens. The only way to save your cattle is to have a wooden or stone fence protecting them, with plenty of grass in it to keep them safe. There are three ways to tell if there is a wild dog on your farm:
1. You hear very loud barking.
2. You see it on your farm map.
3. You see it running past you.
There are three ways to make a wild dog go away:
1. Have your dog chase it away. Your dog has to be outside on your farm to chase the wild dog away. Your dog does this on his own.
2. If you want to be violent, hack away at it with your hammer, axe, scythe, or hoe.
3. Put your dog inside and wait for it to leave. Don't worry, it can't get to your animals if they are all inside the fence.

More Money
To get more money in Harvest Moon: Friends of Mineral Town, buy a basket from the store for 5,000gp. When you have the basket, go to the hot spring mine and mine the minerals and put them in your basket to be shipped. Keep doing this until you have all the money you need. This also works for the winter mine, but you'll usually get more money per trip.

Girls
As life continues, yu might get lonely and are looking for a mate. The girls in this game are perfect for you. There are in total four eligible bacheloretts.
Ann>> works at Doug's in. You can find Ann here almost all the time. Sh is either on the first floor or in one of the rooms upstairs. Her dad, Doug owns the inn. Ann likes chocolate, flowers, your dog, homemade meals, anything homemade. DO NOT.....give any piece of jewelry if you are not at least a yellow heart with her. I gave her a necklace when she had a grey heart and she hasn't spoken to me since.
Karen>> works, and apparently lives, at the super market. I haven't really seen her around anywhere else but here. Ann doesn't like chocolates. She's into nature, so get her anything from your farm or something you find in the woods. If you want to marry Karen, make sure to go after her right away. Won, the merchant also has his eyes on her so you have to act quick before he gets her.
Popuri>>lives at the chicken farm. She is very nice to new comers. This is really the only place you'll ever see her, so if she isn't here try another time. She will accept almost anything except things from the woods. She is really into wool, milk, eggs, mayo, yarn, and cheese. so basically any product coming from your livestock. Again, someone else is after this girl. Kai, the little pirate look alike guy at the beach house wants to marry popuri, so act fast.
Mary>> is the towns librarian, so its a no brainer that she is either in the libray at the north west end on town, or in her house right next door. Mary is kind of a mystery to me and I don't know much about her. I think she likes bugs and animals though. Saibar's randson, the one with the hat who was Ann's bro. in the N64 version, has his eye set on her after she helped him take care of an injury he suffered in the workshop. Act quick before she is taken.
All the girls like gifts. But for a gift actually take effect, it has to be wrapped in gift paer. This can be bought at the market. Cost=100, very cheap and worth it. To get a girl to marry you, she must have a bright red heart for you. You must then look for the blue feather which is either at the black smith,or with Won at Zack's house on the beach. Certain girls you marry give you an advantage. For example,,,
Ann>>discount at Doug's inn on food
Karen>>none that i know
Poopuri>>helps you fedd and take care of livestock and her mom charges less for animal medicine.
Mary>>none that i know

ONLY TRY TO GET THESE IF YOU ARE FILTHY RICH!!! Each is 50.000.
BEWARE HOWEVER>>>>
Won coms to your house once a month to sell you some AMAZING apples with really weird names that stand for weirder phrases that don't make sense. DO NOT BUY... they are just regular apples.

Things to Do During Winter
The winter month does not allow you to grow any crops. However, your pursue for $$$ does not have to come to a halt. You can still get money from your livestock. As far as I know, cows and sheep cannot be let outside to graze. However, chickens can be left outside to get food, as long as there is no storm, or snowing. If it is they must be inside and fed chicken feed. The honey thing still produces honey. The lake mine, the one in the middle of the lake that was unreachable because of, um, lets see, THE LAKE!!!, can now be reached because the lake has frozen over. In this mine, there are a bunch of new ores that can be mined and serve the sole purpose of being sold. And usually for $100+. Fishing can also bring you great profits. For better results, get your fishing rod upgraded so that you can catch bigger fish. You can do this at the beach, the spring, or other little brooks and streams around the farm.
