A Fine Reef Stew.

A very economical, most savory and delicious
dish, can be made with two or three pounds oil
chuck steak, "a cheap part Of beef,) which inf
nitely surpssses the tastclcss, insipid common
eating house stuff called 'beef Ia mode"
Cut the steak into peices of about two inches
square; put them into saucee pan with large
breakfast cupful of cold water; season with
black pepper and salt; put on the fire; as soon
as 1t boils up; stand it on the hob to
simmer for two hours and half until perfectly
tender. While simmering, tie up with bit Of
white thread or cotton, bunch of pennyworth
Of sweet herbs, composed of knetted narjoram,
winter savory, and . little thyme, and take it
out just before dish is served. OF course the
stew must occasionally be shaken, as all others
are; the fat must not be skinned of; the more
fat there is the better Is the stew. The dish
10 of Italian origin, and in that country is eaten
with plain maccaroni, Parmesan cheese. or with
a salad and either. at 10 q dainty dish to set

In neighboring town dwelt pious old lady
who was often heard to say that she was no,
afraid Of anything as long as she had the assn
rance that the Lord was On hor side. A yeuna
man, wishing to test her faith. dressed himself
as he supposed, in imitation of Old Nick, fol-
the purpose of meeting her on a bridge, in a
lonely place. on her return home from prayer
meeting. Accordingly. he posted himself and
waited patiently for the old lady's return, ex-
posed to storm and darkness. Presently, be
heard her well known footsteps approaching.
until she got nearly opposite, when, making a
slight noise, he attracted her attention. She
suddenly stopped, and surveyed him from head

How to Frighten a Dog,

1t is said that the fercest mastiff is terrified
at the appearance of q naked man, and bur.
glars have often made use Of this article to avoid
detection by the vigilant watchdog. A writer
in the last number of the N. E. Magazine says
that once when about to battle in pond, his
faithful and affectionate dog whined piteously
when he had stripped to the shirt. But when
he had DOTTED that, the poor brute uttered one
long howl and scampered like March hare over
the hill. He had no conception of man in the ab-
ssract. His conception of such an animal was
made up Of coat and pantaloons!

DO Promofe Fertility in Fruit Trecs.

TO Promote Fertility in Fruit Trees.
Every orcHardist must have observed that
some fruit trees of superior quality, and of luxu
RANT growth, are yet slow in coming into L>ar-
ing state, and are afterwards Inconsistent. This
is the case especially with the pear tree. Let
US note down some of the methods proposed for
remedying this evil: 80 &
An abundant and rapid flow Of sap tends to
the growth of new wood and leaves, rather than
to the formation of fruitbuds. Whatever checks
this flow will excite the production of flower
buds. For example, select vigorous evergreen
which has thus far shown no cones, and trans
plant It, and next year it will be covered With
seed vessels. So it is often with fruit trees.
The check thereby given to the growth Of roots
and branches, causes the organizable sap to ac-
cumulate in the branches, and directs il to the
formation of fruit. Hence it is that formal root
pruning 10 sometimes practiced. As this pro-
cess is pescribed in nearly all fruit ANNALS, We
will only remind the reader that it should be
practieed only in the fall or winter. Mr.. Rivers,
ofEngland, as nearly everybody knows, no soon
CT catches any of his dwarf pears mapping. than
he lifts them from the ground, and sets them
back again. Fruit bearing is sure to follow
Ringing the branches is another method
This consists in taking out a circular section of
bark, about an inch wide, on several branches
ofthe tree. The effect of this is to prevent the
return Of elaborated sap from the tops Of the
branches 10 the limbs and roots below, and al
most always produces the formation of fruit buds
This practice is not to be generally commended;
il robs the lower portions of the tree of the prop,
ar food. and renders the girdlsd branches use
less afterwards.
Bending the branches downward is another
and better method. This impedes both the as
cent and descent Of sap and causes its accumu-
laton all along the branches, in the form of fruit
buds. Who has not observed that crooked ap-
pie tree often bears better than straight one;
and one with fat spreading head, better than
aprysmidal one? Hence We see the wisdom of
practice common among nurserymen, of reno.
wing the central branches Of young apple trees
The bending down of the branches should be
done in June or July, while the shoots are most
inaexible.
Trimming the branches to the wall or trellis is
another method. The slight compression of
the ligssures, and the bending of the branches,
causes check in the flow of sap, and 20 indu-

Watermelon Syrup.

A correspondent of an Exchange" who was
engaged last season in raising watermelons and
making them into syrup, thinks the watermelon
will not make sugar in consequence Of the wa1y
properties Of the syrup when boiled to that con-
sstency, but the syrup has no equivalent for pre-
serving all kinds of fruits with which the coun-
try abounds. 1t is also excellent for table use.
The process is very simple. The juice is ex.
pressed BY hand, putting the core of the melon
in sack; then boil to a proper consistency in
copper kettle. From experiments be thinks
we cannot get better return for our ground
than by this process. He made from one acre
Of ground last season eighteen barrels of syrup
and sold It at eighty cents per gallon, making
$446 for his labor. 1t is worth thinking about.
