LIME IN PLANTING TREEs.-A large
plantation of trees has been formed within
few years in England, without the loss of
a single tree. Lime, slaked aud thorough
y mixed with earth, or loan, put of lime
to auee, with sufficient loan to fill the space
dug for the Tree, is gwen as the result Of
success. The effect of lime thus thorough
ly mixed with loan, and applied to ali the
roots Of the tree, IN every direction, is to
push forward the Tree during the precarious
stage Of its existence, during the first year
alter lransplaniing, giving the requisite sup
! ply Of readily appropriate sliment.

That TREE.-My father planted it in a
green old age. Its leaves, its shade, its fra
GRANGE, are alike enjoyed by the old, the
young, the rich, the poor; and the memory
of the goold old man, long since in his
grave, is as fresh and fragrant in the minds
OF his children and descendants as when
some of them saw him adjust the earth to
the roots of that tree, planted by his own
hands The birds sing in its branches, and
the children sport beneath its cooling and
refreshing shade Who would not plant
tree There are more ways than one to
plant trees. They may be planted at all
seasons of the year. That man who returns
good for evil, is tree which renders its
shade and its fruit even to them who cast
stones at it. Old and young, male and fe-
male, can plant trees. 'Now's the day and
now The hour" for doing il. Shade or fruit
trees, or the ever green Of affection, plant
them, nurse them, and let all enjoy the
shade, the leaves, the foliage and the fruit.

AcRIcULTURE IN IRELAND. Accounts
from Dublin, up to April 20, 1853, repre-
sent the cause of agriculture as in an unu-
sually prosperous condition. A correspon-
dent Of The ~ Y. Tribune writes from Ire
land, that while every day records the de-
parture of crowds of emigranls, every day
tells also of the occupation of the rich, but
neglected lands of Connought by farmers
from Suffolk or the Le:hlans. The i'm
provement in all parts of the country is
represented as striking and gratifying. 1t
was agreeably manifested recently at the
frs, great Munster Fan. held at Limerick
when twenty two acres were covered with
cattle of all kinds aud Of superior quality,
not at Catle Show, but at mart for the
sale of farm stock. Preparations are in
progress, on magnificent scale, for AN Ex-
hIbllon of industrial and agricultural im-
proyement. If England consults her own
interests aud the welfare of the people. she
will second the efforts Of the farmers aud
manufacturers. Every truly wise govern
ment will do so, whether state or national.
No nation can long prosper where agrlcul-
iure aud manufactures are neglected. or
those engaged IN these pursuits oppressed
and driven from the soil they I'LL or the
manufactures they operate. National and
individual prosperity, long 10 continue, must

ITEMS FOR F.RMERs.-On the 9Th Of April
po.atoe planting was going on in iceland, under
favorable circumstances as to soil and weather.
A farmer, out vest informs the public that he
raises more and better potatoes. by strewing the
seed upon grass ground, and covering them six
inches with straw, than if planted in any other
way. Two important advantages, he says, are
gained. There is no expense of blowing and
hoeing'; and in harvest, on removing the straw,
the potatoes have dug themselves. - 1t will
never answer for Vermont farmer to do things
by the halves To half till and half manure
land is to throw away time and labor and impov-
erish the soil and the owner farmer can new
er make fair profit without due proportion OF
intelligence, high cultivation and liberal out
lay. BE liberal to the earth and she will be lib
eral to you. -- An observing and intelligent
farmer in England, speaking of the different
breed of hogs, SAYS, "On the whole, there are
few better breeds than the improved Suffolk The
greater part of the pigs at Prince Albert's Farm
are of this breed" Another English writer says
this breed stands first" Another still =" the
Suffolk pigs are lhe most profitable breed in
England" 1t is very much so in this county,
The Suffolk pig is hansome, compact, short
legged, round bodied aud quiet animal Fats
easy, and makes the best of pork. They are
beginning to take the lead and the premiums in
Vermont Mr. Lowering, of Hartford, Mr. War
rem, of Mlddlesex, Mr.. Kelton, of East Montpe-
Her, and others have them, and like them better
then any other breed. - Cranberries, here
tofore raised only in Marshes are now cultivated
successfully on dry, sandy pastures, in wet mead
ows, on hillocks, and on moving land. With
proper care, they can be cultivated in any part
OF Vermont and the market supplied Mt home
instead Of depending on other states for the
cranberry trade. Who wall first try the expert
