For those of you who care, you might see that I reformatted the whole
walkthrough, and made it a bit better.
Ok. Graphics get 7/10. They are nice Graphics, but not the best. Sound gets
a 4/10. It is pretty repetative. But Gameplay gets a 10/10. It is a nice
storyline. Overall, the game gets a 7/10.
This Faq can be seen posted on Gamefaqs.com and Gamewinners.com,
supercheats.com
Other Guides I am working on include: Rayman DS.
And though Mario Kart DS is not released, I am working on the outline for it,
so expect to see the release on November 7th. 
P.S. To those who are curious, I am NOT a theif. I didn't pirate the game,I am
just doing the outline to fill it later.

History

V1.0 (6/15/05)
Got all the sections in. Just need to complete them a bit more.

V2.0    7:40 PM    7/24/2005
Added Glitches, Recipe, and Book list section. Sorry about the late release.
Also just got my e-mail up.

V3.0    12:03 PM 7/26/2005
Reformatted the walkthrough, due to the fact that Gamefaqs called it
'Oversaturated'. So I took out the Glitches and Book list section, and toned
down the details a little bit, changed the way of searching, and a little bit
of the order of the guide. I also did a little bit more ASCII art.

HMFOMTMO - Starter/Year 1

Spring of year 1 is more week/dayly. But the rest is Monthly.

Spring:

Day 2
Pick weeds and ship them. They are located at the waterfall, lake, Gotz's
house, and the beach. Talk to May and Barley sometime for a horse. Use your axe
at bedtime until you turn blue while cutting logs in the field. Save and go to
bed. P.S. Always pay attention to your animals by pressing A near them and
brush them when possible.

Day 3
Same as day 2. By three cucomber bags and plant them. Water them and go to bed.
You need to till the ground in order for the seeds to sprout. Go use your axe
until you turn blue, and go to bed. Do this with your axe every night.

Day 4 - 17
Same as day two. Water your seeds and harvest as needed. On the 7th and 14th,
buy the clock and shelf off of the t.v. You need to watch it on the left
channel, then buy it from the phone at Dougs inn. Dig some silver ore out of
spring mine, and upgrade your axe on the 15th. Hold B to charge your axe when
it is upgraded. And don't forget to buy a basket sometime. And buy a brush for
your horse. Also, cut the stumps with your axe everyday.

Day 18
Water and go to town square. Bring your basket. Bet on the horse with the
lowest number in that round to win. But only if the lowest is four and higher.
Then, fill your basket with broaches, and ship them when you come back.

Day 19 - 21
Pick the weeds, and buy a medium rucksack sometime. Don't forget to buy the
stuff off of the shopping network. Just remember to buy the stuff off of the
shopping network every saturday. I won't remind you anymore.

Day 22
Pick the weeds and go to the Cooking fest. It's ok if you are late, you can't
enter it anyways.

Day 23 - 30
On day 23, get your house upgraded. Pick the weeds. The shopping channel should
have the fridge now.

Summer:

Day 1
Pick weeds and berries. Go to beach day, take care of your animals, and go
to bed.

Day 2 - 30
On day two, start dating the girl you like. Buy 3 bags of pineapple seeds.
Water them, take care of your animals. You should make 36000 Gold this month.
Buy the stuff off of the shopping network, go to festivals, start giving the
sprites flour. You need them to get through the fall.

Fall:

Day 1 - 30

Buy the stuff on the shopping network. Buy the sweet potatoes. Plant 8 crops.
Get the sprites to help you. Get 5 sprites watering and two sprites harvesting.
plant the yard like this. It is shown for eight plots.

# = Seeds

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^########################^^^
^^^########################^^^
^^^########################^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
On the 18th, do the horse fest, the same as last time. On the 16th, buy a cow
and milker. Brush the cow, milk the cow, and talk to the cow every day. And buy
120 bales of feed, as well as a chicken with 200 bushels of feed for the
chicken. You can stop picking weeds by mid fall. Don't forget to see the heart
events for your girl. And upgrade your house again by mid fall.

Winter:

Day 1 - 30
Take care of your animals. Hatch baby chicks, feed everyday. Baby chicks don't
need to be fed. By the end of the month, you should be ready to be married.
You will be married a week after you propose. If you choose a nickname after
you get married, she will call you that for the rest of your life. Also, hire
a sprite for the day you get married.
###############################################################################
HMFOMTMI - Intermediate/Year 2

Year 2
Spring:

1 - 30
Dig to level 9 in the Spring mine to get mystrile ore, and upgrade your
watering can. Plant cucombers, get the sprites to work for you as last time.
plant in a 6x3 pattern of single squares, for as many bags as you wish to buy.
Go to the horse fest and make the Gold again. Buy some miracle potion for your
cow, and get some baby cows that way. Chop wood everyday. Upgrade your farm
places as needed. Just chop wood every day, until all the farm places are
upgraded, and you have 999 peices of wood. Sometime in late spring, your wife
will find out she is pregnant.

Summer:

1 - 30
Plant the Pineapples in the empty cucomber spots, and dig a 9x18 single plot
of grass for your cows. When it is full grown, your cows can graze on it.
Go to the festivals, keep your wife happy, and thats basically it.

Fall:

1 - 30
Do the sweet potatoe planting, and try to start for 16 cows and 8 chickens.
Start trying to get all your tools at mystrile qaulity.

Winter:

1 - 30
All mystrile tools at max, buy 8 bodigizers, and take just your hammer and hoe
to the winter mine. Dig down to level 29, 39, 49, 59, 69, and 79. Find the
cursed tools on those levels. Don't hold them though. They will not let you let
go of them. Go down by Saving, then digging around, find it, relaod and it will
be there exactly again. Do this to maximize efficiency. Have Carter bless the
Hoe, Fishing Rod, and Watering Can 11 time each, and use the hammer, sickle,
and axe 255 times each at the year end festival. They will all be blessed.
###############################################################################
HMFOMTMA - Advanced/Year 3

Year 3
Spring:

1 - 30
Plant your whole field with grass, then immediatly the next day, cut out a
6x9 pattern all through it. This will cause weeds not to grow at all. Then
plant the cucombers, and help your sprites to water them with your blessed
tools. After they become skilled enough, they wont need your help.
Sometime this month, you will need to take your kid to the doctor. Say 'Yes'
and your wife will be happy. Don't forget the horse fest.

Summer:

1 - 30
Plant Pineapple seeds, get the sprites to work for you. Go to the Fests. and do
your normal farm work.

Fall:

1 - 30
Do the sweet potatoe thing. Go to the horse races. Buy three adamanite ore's,
fill the basket with broaches. Then buy 5 of what your wife likes, and bring
them home to put on your shelf. Then make Makers out of the Adamanite ore's.
They over double the profits of milk and eggs. Just throw what you want in
there, and it will become it.

Winter:

1 - 30
Take care of your animals. I recommend having the sprites do your animals
everyday, and you dig down to level 30 and get 3 pink diamonds everyday. Then,
when you ship them at the end of the month, you will get 1.2 million gold.
###############################################################################
HMFOMTCO - Continuing/ Year 4 - 60

Ok. This is a yearly Schedual.

Year 4 - 10
Spring - Winter

Do everything you did last year, just plant cabbage instead of cucombers. They
are not a renewable crop, so you have to plant them again after harvest, but
they sell for 250 gold each.

Year 11 - 60
Do everything as the last 6 years, just this time, plant your whole field with
crops, no spaces, no grass.
