Plant an Apple Orchard.

The old ones are fasA dying out all
through the older States. They were
planted hundred years ago, or more,
have done good service, and ought to
have their day. When apples are So
a barrel and upward, there is not an
adequate supply in the country. They
can be grown at dollar barrel, with
profit. The apple crop in a single
small county in this 0ate, was worth
half million of dollars last year.
Other counties, in the older parts of the
Eastern States, Were under the neces-
sity of paying out hundred thousand
dollars for this fruit, because they had
not the article at home. Peaches and
plums we may be able to get along
without, but apples we must have-for
sauce. for pies, for the dessert, and for
the dinner basket of little boys and
girls who cannot come home from
school to dine. We say then to every
farmer, plant an orchard Of at least a
hundred trees. The trees are ali ready
for you in the nursery, well grown, and
grated, two and three years from the
bud. Get thrifty trees, of varieties
that You know will flourish IN your To-
cality, and in four years you will he
eating fruit from them. Do not fail to
plant an orchard this very MONTH

A WORD ABOUT GARDENING.-NC
one can be truly said to live who ha,
not a garden. None but those who
have enjoyed it can appreciate the sat
isfaction-the luxury-of sitting dowr
to table spread with the feuits of ones
planting and culture. A bunch of rad
ishes, or few heads. of lettuce, taken
from the garden Oh asummer's mornin Q
for breakfast, or mess of green peas
or sweet corn, is quite different affair
from that brought from market in dy
ing condition. How many in the small
Ter cities and villages Of our country,
possessing every facility for good
garden, either through Incidence or ig-
norance are deprived of this source of
comfort! And how many farmers,
with most of the Injuries of life, are
content to plod on in the even tenor of
their way, never raising their taste
above the "pork and beans" of their
fathers.

We noticed recently a poor orchard,
enc Of the consequences OF Imperfect
shortening in pruning. A few OF inc
Baytlsus were loaded with fruit ana
the branches were bent to the ground.
The wood was quite too slender to hold
up the fruit. We could see that some
Of the annual growths had been left
ewe feet or more in length, and no pains
had been taken to bring the limbs down
to an obtuse angle to the trunk OF
the tree. Had only a foot of the wood
been left nj each annual pruning, in the
early stages of growth, the limbs would
have been sufficiently large and strong
to hold the present burden of fruit.
Fruit growers, especially the Inexperi-
enced, are SO much IN hurry 10 get
large quantities of iruii, that they spard
too much wood npon the young trees.
When bearing begins, too much fruit
is left upon the limbs, and they become
permanently dropping. This superin-
dnces excessive iruitfulncss and pre-
mature decay.
The first eight years of the lite of a
fruit tree are the most important, AMI
require judicious management. If a
good compact head is formed in this pc
Rod, it will need comparatively pru-
ming after that. The wood is of the
first consequence in these years, and
the fruit should be steadily sacrificed
for the future good of the tree. Apply
the knile above, and the compost below,
and keep the head as much in pyra-
midal shape as possible. In due time
you will have abundant fruit, and the
limbs stout enough to hold it.
