PLANT TREES.


The following eloquent extract from
report on orchard culture by a committee
of the Oneida county IN. Y Agricul'
tural Society, should be read by ALL
The remarks ore as true of every tow
in the country as of Oneida county, New
York.
" 1t is to be wondered over, that the
land owners of Oneida are not more zeal
Gus in planting orchards. Nature has
given them a soil and a climate most pre-
pilious for the raising of superior apples
ample inducements are held out in tho
direction of profit, of pleasantness. and Of
sentiment ; vet many are still slow TO
enter into the full possession of their Pc
culiar advantages as owners of Oneida
soil. Who plants an apple tree in the
sol of Oneila, makes a permanent in-
vestment, that they may be expected 10
increase from year 10 year, until lis orlgl-
nal value is hundred fold. Who plants
an apple tree makes a prudent provision
against LIES rainy days, against loss of
health, misfortune in business, old age
Who plants a Tree, extracts something of
bitterness from the original curse. 1t
was a part of Adams punishment TO be
expelled from the socisty of cultivated
trees 10 surround ones self with them,
is 10 take some steps towards regaining
the Paradise that was lost 10 man by his
first transgression. The planted fruit
tree will be a faithful minister TO its own
er's prof., improvement, health and hap
piness. 1t will stand sentinel over his
dwelling through winters of adversely,
when summer friends have fed. While
its master is sleeping, the Tree is growing.
While he is travelling the tree will stay
at home and keep On growing. 1t will be
industrious for him through all seasons,
converting air, earth, and water into
shadow for his footsteps, perfume for his
parlor, food for his table, fuel for his
hearth, timber for his use. 1t will serve
him contentedly through life, and minis

A tree has moral and social uses. 1t is

The poet Virgil discovers a close relation
between generous character and generous

TRUE.-PeOple who suppose that a
good prayer is preferred TO a good act,
imagine that God has more hearing than

that they reasoned from false premises.

THE WYANDOT PROLIFIC CORN.


Several interesting experiments have
been made during this season, in several
places, with the rem rkably prolific va
riety of maize obtained from the Wyan-
dot Indians. The Alton Weekly Courier,
an Illinois paper, speaks Of a hill of Wy
andoi corn, raised from one kernel, by
Mr.. John Cooper, of Upper Alton, con-
sisiing of fourteen stalks, Ten feet high,
on which were nineteen ears of four hun.
dred and fifty grains TO the ear, on an
average, making eight thousand and fifty
grains as The product of a single kernel.
The same paper speaks of a specimen of
the same variety, exhibited at the Greene
County Fair, by JudgeW oodson, in which
eight tall, healthy stalks were produced
from a single kernel, with two ears TO
each stalk, and a total of eight thousand
nine hundred and sixty grains. A SUBJ
sequent number of the same journal mem
tions samples of the Wyandot corn raised
by Mr.. ]. R. Thomas, of Morgan county.
They were ~Plucked from a field which
produces at the rate of one hundred and
fifty bushels to the acre. The yield, it is
said, is sometimes even greater. Five or
six stalks are produced from a single ker
mel, shooting forth between twenty and
thirty good-sized ears, and only a single
kernel being necessary to a hill, one ear
is sufficient for half an acre, planted four
feet apart. The grains are remarkably
smooth and white, and we learn hat the
-four from them can be readily boiled Ike
that from wheat.
