HoRLcULTURAL DIsCoyERY.-A friend Of ours,
says the Nevada (Cal) Democrat who has devoted
much of his time for The past three years to horti
culture, has recently discovered two ete:ual meth
ods to kill the that destructive to fruit
trees in this country. The frat is to sprinkle
quantity of saIt around the tree, then pour wa
ter 50 that the sat will penetrate to the root. The
other remedy is to pour about pint of nitric acid
around the roots Of the tree E ther of these
remedies will kill the borers-a'so, kill the trees as
our friend has learned to his cst Fifty or si1ty
thrifty frui trees which he had in the early part of
the season have been sqred from the borers by the
judieiOus application of nitric acid and salt, and
are now standing monuments of the great value Of
the discovery.

Remarkably Poor Soil.

An inquisitive Yankee was standing at a
tavern door, in the lower part of Jersey
watching funeral rass by. At the head
OF II was large manure cart, moving along
very slowly, and making no offer to turn out
for the procession. The Yankee was aston
ished at this want of attention on the part
of the driver of said cart, and turning to a
Philadelphia, who was standing 10y, he re-
marked:
Il guess the folks amt very perlite about
here; tn hum, where live, they always turn
out for n funeral
"Oh, that's part of the procession" re-
marked the Philidelphan oravey.
"Du tell? You don't say so. Heow."
exclaimed the astonished Yankee.
"Why, you see, it's a very poor sandy soil
about here, and nothing comes up they plant,
unless they manure it well, so when they bury
fellow. they throw whole carload in the
grave, to make him rise at judgment day!
1t would no doubt he much better for the
future condition of many New Jerseymen
if the manure were left out.
