From the old woods, dim and lonely
Comes a moan;
There the winds are sighing only
Summers goue!
All the brigh: and sunny hours,
And the green and leafy bowers,
With the summers latest flowers,
Are AIDED now;
And the brow
OF the waning year
Has been twined with dying leaves,
And the gathering Of the sheaves
Tel us Autumn's here.
Now the winds 60 loudly moaning,
Through the wales;
MournfuI tales
OF decays that swiftly gather,
Of the coming winrry wea ther,
OF the snow, that like feather
Soon will fall;
And the call
OF death is signing,
Over all the ripping streams;
And the Summers hng'ring CLEANS
Are sadly dying.

suhioin The following recei pit:
Take two ounces of fine white gum-arabic pow

The right time to plant ETuit T/ecS.-Which
is the brst time transplant frui' trees! THIS is
a question that is often asked. The best PRACTICAL
horlcutursrs agree that the best season for trans
planting is the fall ol the year, soon alter the
trees have shed their leayesi Tor ID autumn the
root OF the tree Is entirely dormant. and there is
no action of sap in any part Of the tree; and a
tree splanled in a dormant condition will eX-
PerIence very little if any check from It's removal.
Some time in The month of January the roots Of
trees put forth NUMEROUS little Gbr"s. which gather
nourishment for The tree, and consequently will
give ii an early start in The spring of the year
Without the nourishment afforded by these fibres,
the tree is likely 10 perish; and If it lives, It's
growth will be greatly retarded. BY all means
transplant in the Fall fruit as well as shade trees.
il you wish to ensure successful planting, and save
