Salt for Trees.

Is salt beneficial for trees a? Answer
The following is what experienced cult
vators said at the Fruit Growers Society,
in Western New York recently; Geo.
Ellwanger said he had appliedsalt to pear
and plum trees and found it produced a
wonderful effect would use as much as a
peck for large tree, as large as q
large apple tree uses it in February
puts enough on to make white. Charles
Downing thought salt good for all vege.
tation, but it would do no good to kill in
sects. ..W. P. Townsend had used salt
for niauy years, with the best result, fol-
ounce trees. Dr. Sylvester said there
was limit to the use of salt it must not
be used in excessive quantities.

Harvest Festival Ode.
BY J. G.. WHITTIER.

This day, two hundred years ago,
The wild grape by the rivers side,
And tasteless grouud-nuts trailing low,
The table Of the woods supplied.
unknown the apples red and gold,
The blushing tint Of peach ana pear
The mirror Of the powow lol6
No tale of orchards ripe and rare.
Wild as the fruits he scor7ed to TIL,
These wales the idle indian trod
Nor knew the glad, creative skill,
The joy of him who tolls with God.
o, Painter of the fruits and flowers
We thank Thee for thy wise design
Whereby these human hands Of ours
In Natures Garden work with Thine.
And thanks, that from our daily need
The joy OF simple faith is born;
That he who smites the Summer weed,
May trust Thee for the Autumn corn.
Give fools their gold and knavcs their power
Let fortunes bubbles rise and fall;
Who sows a field, or trains a flower,
Or plants tree, is more than all.
For he who blesses most is Llest
And God and man shall own his worth
Who tolls to leave at his bcquest
An added beauty to the earth.
And, soon or late, TO all that sow
The time of harvest shall be given;
The flower shal! bloom the fruit shall grow
Ii not on earth, at last in heaven.

From the American Agricultur
Hints on Cooking.

Potato Custard.-1 pint mashed pota-
toes, 2 cups sugar, l Of butter or lard, /
eggs, nutmeg, thin it with milk and bake.
Crumpets-l quart bread dough, 5
eggs, milk enough to make a batter; let
it rise bake it in cakes on griddle.
Opening Cemented Fruit Bottles
Place the inverted bottles on heated
stove until tbs cement in the patty pans is
melted, lift the bottles from the pans, turn
them right side up, and the softened cork
can be easily removed with cork screw,
or even a stout fork.
Cleaning Pigs Feet-Put the feet in
cold water to soak over night. With a
moderately sharp knife scrape all parts
thoroughly until the skin is clean and
white. Hold the lower ends in hot water
for a minute or two, to part the dew-claws
and hoofs which can then be twisted off
with the hand. SINCE in clear fame

Apple Butter.-Boil new cider down
one half. Pare, cut and core equal guam
titles ofsweet and sour apples. Put the
sweet apples in large kettle to soften
little first as they are hardest. Add
enough boiled cider to cook it. After
boiling half an hour, stirring often put in
the sour apples and molasses enough to
sweeten moderately. Boil until tender,
stirring to prevent burning. Pack in FIR

molasses is not needed, we think, while it
would injure the favor for many people.

famous regions, they are inso4uable, BE-

too, they can be brought INTO very
srseeable gait. A foreign writer sayss
ain Bagdad, most of the learned and
holy professions prefer the ass, as do al!
the ladies. They are of pyasiCe1 bIa1
and often bring fifty pod Sing,

white; they are magniicently caparisoaea
and have their nestrils slit, which Tia

wind is long enough when they bray =
The bray is not much admired, generally
bat she author Of scar6e traets on the
nobleness of the ass, 1895, after giving

claring that the continually braytn1 OF
FIVE or six asses forms a melodious kind

But whether these alleged vices are not

perhaps an open question. Mules are
seldom known to die, or to become old ;
