UNPRoDUcTIvE FRUIT TREEs.-Some-
times fruit trees are unproductive from
other causes than poverty of soil, or neg
lect of the orchardist. They often grow
too luxuriantly to bear well. In this case
root pruning is very effectual, and is per-
formed by digging circle round the tree
A fifteen year old tree, for instance, may
be encircled at five feet from the trunk
No rules can be laid down for this !; Judge
ment must be exercised. If cut too close
the tree may be stunted for years, and il
too far it will not be effective. The aim
should be to reduce the root one third

The Senate of the United States, in its

of but fifty members. Ofthese, New Eng
land has twelve, or about one-quarter of
the whole number. The population of the

whom 100000 live in New England
With one tenth of the population, the Re-
publican policy gives the Yankee States

New England is so potent in directing tie

sheet out of the window, which was quite
a distance from the ground, and the beau
would seize he'd of the sheet,
and with the assistance of his dy-love,
who tugged Justify at the sheet above,
would thus gain entrance.
But it so happened that one evening
the girls hung the sheet rather early; fr
the old gentleman, by some ill-wind, was
blown around the corner, and spying the
sheet, could not conjecture the meaning
of its being there. He took hold and
endeavored to pull it down. The girls,
supposing it to be one of the beaux, began
to hoist, and did not discover their mistake
until the head of the old man was .level
with the window-sill, when one of them
