absence Of mind increased upon him as he
became advanced In years, and at length bis
memory failed, although his intellect, when
excited, retained much Of its vigor. He
had preached the same sermon to his congrc-

member Of his family was willing to distress
him BY informing him what he had done.

heavy heart that he had his Bible open at

room for minute; she opened the Bible at

Watering Trees in Hot Weather.

There is no practice on which we have
given repeated instruction, that is 50 little
understood as that Of watering newly set
trees and shrubs during the hot and dry wea-
ther OF summer. Many persons dash water
on the surface and never examine whether II
goes down halt an inch or an inch, while
tho roots may be six inches or a foot below,
and as little affected as horse would be by
pouring q pail Of water on his tail. 1t
would be well worthy Of the experiment for
any reader of these reuarks to give the sur
face Of hard pieco Of dry soil drcnching
with water pot, and then few hours at-
forwards dig down and examine the depth
to which the moisture has penetrated, and
compare il with an adjoining spot that has
not been watered. The result will be val.
liable lesson. Let the experiment be extend
cd. Allow one portion Of ground to become
hard crusted, and keep another loose and
mellow. Examine the moisture in soil six
inches down, during drought-the crusted
portion will be dry, the mellow part moist
and favorable for the growth OF plants.
Again. examine portion Of the soil which
has been allowed to grow with weeds and
grass. a. compared with the clear and mel
low part, and the difference will be surpris-
ing TO thoss who have not before witnessed
anything Of the kind. Grsss and other
plants pump water up from the soil and scat.
ter Il In the air in the form Of insensible
vapor through the leaves, many times faster
than II can evaporate from bare soil /; and
beneath the grass the earth will sometimes
appear as dry as ashes, while that which has
been kept pulveri.ed will DO found as moist
as wet sponge. Actual observation Of
these differences, requiring few minutes
occasional examination, will DO more con-
vincing than any amount Of reasoning. II
will show in most satisfactory manner the
importance Of keeping the coil clear and COZ
stantly pulvcrisod, both Tor retaining moist
