Scraping and Washing Trees.

The Massachusetts Society has published
IA report made to it by committee appdD'
ted TO inquire into "the uses and abuses oi
the practice Of scraping and washing trees"
The conclusions arrived at are so diametri-
ca'ly opposed to the prevalent opinion and
practice, and seem at the same time so well
supported by arguments, that we need no
ap0logy for publishing the resolutions in
which those conclusions are contained. tho
we do not endorse every thing contained in
the report. The resolutions are as follows:
"Elat whereas it is common custom to
| scrape off the outside bark of fruit and ons-
mental trees, and wash and plaster them
with lime and other preparations, in the
hope Of beneftting the trees by the destruc-
ton of parasites and insects injurious to
vegetation, and improving their general APP
pearance, the Mass achusetts Horticultural
! Society hereby resolve, for reasons which
have been stated, that we consider this prac-
tice of no benefit to the trea, from its abil.
ity to effect the majority Of the insects really
injurious; and unnecessary in the cases of
lichens and MOSES, they being not the cause
but the consequence of diseases and decay,
and positive violation Of the laws Of veg
etable physiology, and consequently an in
jury TO all trees, (but to ornamental ones in
particular, to an incalulable amount.
Cd. That lichens and MOSES, in healthy
state of the tree, are, so far as can be ascer-
tanned, no injury to the bark, but from their
varied colors from one Of its chief ornaments
Any operations for their removal are to be
scrupulously avoided and reprehended.
4d. That is, strict inquiry has shown that
bark lice, woolly aphis, aud some borers do
lay their eggs and hatch their young upon
the bark of apples, pears, peaches and ma,
Piles near the ground, and in the forks OF die
branches, gentle rubbing, with some plia-
BILE but stiff wire or other brush on the parts
affected, to be followed hy washing with
weak, soft or whale oil soap suds, is desira-
BILE, and will be OF benefit when careful
examination shall have shown that the eggs
are deposited upon any tree in question, bu!
that this process is unnecessary and unecon-
omical when the presence of the enemy has
not been most clearly prov >ed"
The other resolutions are 10 the same
feet, one Of them being directed against all
alkaline preparations plastered on to trees,
These conclusions are endorsed by George
B. Emerson, the learned author of "The
Trees of Massachusetts," and by Mr.. Tuck
erman, who has made the subject Of llchens
his particlar study. T9iey are moreover
supported bv many arguments drawn from
pracUice, experiment, theory aud analogy,
but we have not space to enter upon these.

How to Keep Gathered Fruit and
A7 Z overs ALWAYS Fresh,

AtrIehd has just informed us that fruit
and flowers may be preserved from decay
and fading. by immcrsing them in selutioa
OF gum arabic in water two or three times,
waiting a sufficient time between each i'm
mersion TO allow to dry. This process Gov
els the surface Of the fruit with a thin coat
ing of the gam, which is entirely imprevi-
GUS TO the air, and thus prevents the decay
of the fruit, or the withering Of the hower.-
Our friend has roses thus preserved which
have all the beauty of the freshly phlcked
ones, though they have been separated from
the parent stem since June list. To insure
success iR experiments ofthis kind, it should
be borne In mind that the Whole surface
must be completely covered; for ii the air
only gains an entrance at pin-hole, the la
Dor viii be lost. In preserving specimens
of fruit, particular care should be taken to
cover the STEM end and all, with the gum.
A good way is to wind thread of silk A.
boat the stem, and then sink il slowly in the
solution, which should no. be so strong as
to leave a particle of the gum undissolved.
The gum is so perfectly transparent, that
you can with difficulty detect its presence,
except by the touch. Here we have anotlr
er simple method of fixing the feeting beau.

The Power Of Habit.

, John B. CROUCH. in a lecture delivered
at Exeter Hall, London, thus illustrates the
power of habit. The report is from Lon,

Iremember riding from Buffalo to the
Niagara Falls, and said to gentleman,
g"What river is that, sir?' s''0 .' a'
"That," he said, sis NiagarS fiver."
? "Wel, It'll beautiful stream" said i
,''bright and fair and CLASSY; how far off are
the rapids?" '" 1911. 'a''-"t D
"Only mile OF two," was the reply. .
Is it possible that only mile from us
we shall find the water in the turbulence
which it must show when near the Fall?'
"You, will find it so, sir" and so
found it; and the first sight of Niagara
shall never forget. Now, launch your bark
on that Niagara river; it is bright
smooth, beautiful and CLASSY. There is
a rapple at the bow; the silver wake you
leave behind adds to your enjoyment
Down the stream you glide, oars, sails and
helm in proper trim, and YOU set out OF
your pleasures excursion. Suddenly some
one cries out from the bank, g oung ineh

Machinery in Farming

4 It is not enough that farmers avail Them
selves of all the advantages which chemis-
try affords in its application to their art,
is not enough that they learn how to save
as much as possible Of the manurss made
on their premises, and the best methods a
applying these and also purchased specific
manures; it is not enough that they know at
what seasons and to what depths their soils
should be cultivated. They must perform
as many of the operations OF farming by
machinery as machinery can be made to
perform to advantage.
There is no other way in WHICH agricui-
ture can keep pace in responsibility, pleas
ure and profit with other arts. Without
this expedlent it will be outstripped by thea
and sink steadily in comparative rank, BY

The Know-Nothing Party. !.

The Lancaster Intelligenoer concludes pn

all new one idea parties, 20 finally affiliate
with and be swallowed up by the Wing or
gRnization. with the following remarks:
Sand such has been, and ever will be,
the fate ofall new parties, brought into ex-
istence by the means, for the pretended OBJ
ject Of redressing some alleged private or
local wrong, the character of which is gen.
orally indicated by thename they adopt
They are sll recruited by sergeets commits
stoned by the Wing party, and used for
the benefit OF that party, as mere FACTIONS;
and when thrown aside by their betrayers,
find themselves lost to the confidence Of the
Democracy, forwhose destruction they were
employed. 4 .bsui alf lu cJHH2Ci sdi e1is

mind by the people, especially by the young
men just launching into political life, whose

plished recruiting and drill sergeants of the

"The young men Of the Democratic party,
however for whom the snare was prin-
cipal spread, will not be caught in it,
Some Of them may venture to the door of
the curiosity shop and take look at
the Interior, but they are too wise to east
a blight u7on their political character, which
will attach through life, by crossing the
threshold and; becoming an occupant. The
old men OF the Democratic party--those who
have stood firm and inAexble in adherence
