storing Away Apples.

AS this is the season for packing away
apples for winter and spring use, the man
ner that was employed in keeping apples,
that were perfectly sound year after
they were thus put away, will probably
prove interesting to our readers. The
gentleman writes:
A layer of dry saw dust was sprinkled
at the bottom of the packing box, and
then layer of apples placed in it so that
they did not touch each other. Upon
these was placed layer of saw DUST and
so on until the box was filled. The boxes,
after being packed in this way, were placed
on the wall in the cellar, up from the
ground, where the apples kept perfectly
sound, retaining their freshness and fla
vor, when brought. out and exhibited at
the fair.
From experiments made with dry sand,
packing the apples in the same way, he
finds that saw-dust is much superior to the
sand, the latter, he thinks, being too heavy
a material, and pressing the apples too
much, causing them to decay more rap
idly than with the saw-dust. The above
experiment, perhaps, may be suggestive to
those desiring to preserve apples late in
the season next year.
1t will be needless to observe, however,
that no apples will keep late, by any pro
cess of packing, that have been bruised or
injured in picking. Apples should be
handled carefully, and the less moving
about, after having been picked, the bet
ter. A large part of the fruit grown and
sold in market has been so injured by
careless gathering, pouring into barrels,
and rough handling while being driven to
market that it soon decays, under what
ever treatment it may be subjected for
the purpose Of keeping.

Never mind the gloves, and never mind the hoods
Tints and fruits of autumn, rich and sweet as ever
Let us now enjoy them, driving back the years,
Asin days Of childhood, here, within the wildwood,
Let us smile with Nature, brushing off the tearsl
See, the fruits droppng see the branches waving
HarkI the birds are singing-who can fret or sigh!
Care we not for fashion, etiquette, nor passion,
Ont here in the woodlands-only friends are nigh!
Yes, ah yes, We miss them those who went nuttins
Far back in the dstan ce-in the same old woods;
Dear and childish faces, memory clearly trace,
Climbing over hedges, wHding through the hoodsl
Let US go a-nutting-thsy are nearer to Us,

Never mind the dresses, bind not up the tire ssss,
Never mind the gloves, and never mind the hoods!
