Packing APPLES in Leaves.

A few years ago Mr. j. W. Boynton, of.
East Hartford, while gathering up the leaves
under an apple tree. in the spring, observed
beneath them few fresh, unfrozen apples
It suggested at once that dry leaves would
answer well as packing material for fruit and
the next fall and every season since he has
used them for this purpose. We saw few
days ago some specimens thus preserved,
seemingly as fresh and as piquant in flavor as
when first gathered; yet he assured us they
were v-li.ties that would have decayed mont's
ago if unprotected. His plan is to pick the
apples carefully at the proper time, but not
TO pack them until the forest leaves are per-
fectly dry and the weather quite cool Then
the apples and leaves are packed in alternate
layers, and the last layer crowded IN as loose
as possible by placing any convenient weight
or the cover of the barrel. The leaves are
of such elasticity that the whole may be CON-
pressed so tightly as to prevent all shucking
&C., and yet not bruise the apples in the
slightest degree. In this latitude Mr.. Boyn.
ton has never found it necessary to keep these
barrels of fruit in any place warmer than an
open shed. 1t would be advisable, of course
everywhere to keep them in as cool place a:
possible. In the spring they are to be reno
we'd to cool, airy cellar, or to an apartment
especially for fruit, in connection with the ice

Broken Wind or Heaves.

''Heaves," the common name for broken
wind in the horse, is susceptible OF great al
deviation by the attention to the character and
quantity of food to be eaten by the animal. as
every one knows If horse suffering from
this disease is allowed TO distend his stomach
at his pleasure, with dry food entirely. and
then to drink cold water al Hbituna, he is
nearly worthless. But if his food be moist
ened, and he be allowed to drink moderate
quantity only at time, the disease is much
less troublesome.
A still farther alleyiation of the ''heaves''
may be obtained from the use of raw, fat,
salt pork, from time to time. do not say
that heaves can be cured By the use of salt
pork, but aLeUiated still more than by feed
ing wet food without the pork.
Commerce with piece of pork, say a GU
bic inch, chopped very fine and mixed with
the wetted grain or cut feed, twice day fol
two CT three days. Then from day to day
increase the quantity and cut less fine, unit
there is given with each feed, such slice a:
usually by farmers wife is cut for frying
nearly as large as your hand. cut into ffteel
or twenty pieces. Continue this for two
weeks, and the horse is capable of any or
dinary work without distress, and withou
showing the heaves. l have experience ant
observation for the past ten years as proof

sailling Corn, Potatoes and Cotton.
Until within few years Farmers of the
North have billed their corn and potatoes,
and believed i. necessary; more recently they
have found that roots may be induced from
thu eperdiiaus Of the corn stalk an1 the earth
billed about it, but that this earth aud the
roots il contains, cannot contribute in sustain
ing the corn stalk, while it merely deducts
from the growth of the top-root and other
deep permeating roots which can do best SER
vice to the sub-soil in the bringing OF organ
ic matter to give strength and health TO the
plant. That with fat cultivation eorn-stalks
will stand higher gales than wher billed up.
With the potatoe different rationale but tend
ing to the same result, has proved true
The original TUDOR throws up stems, and IL
stead of the potatoe being tuborous rooted
plant, Gas most of our books in error call it,
1t is tuberous stem plant, for no potatoe
ever grew upon stem; aDd therefore the Or
ieinal seed, when it furnishes the first set OF
tubers, does all that nature intended Ii we
earth up the stem, we cause new exorfic
these take part of the pabulum, namely, the
starch contained in the original TUDOR, all o
which should be given to the forming of The
first tubers. For this reason, We find pota
toes when hiiled giving unripe results in par
and potatoes of all sizes; whereas when cult
yated fatty so as to form no new tubers, tn
crop is alike or nearly SO in size. all those OF
iginally set perfect, and both in pounds an
measure, the crop is greater and less liable
disease Now all the truths that are to
found in this practice in the growing of COZ
is applicable in degree, as we apprehend.
the growth of cotton We can see no reasc
why cotton should be grown on raised bed
unless it is to furnish larger amount of su
face for the suns influence And If this
the true rationale, we should recommel
such treatment of the soil as would chan
the color, rather than the adoption of the
raised beds

IF were asked to account for my horses
legs and feet being III better order than those

they move; second, that they all live in boxes
instead of stalls. and can move whenever thew
