SPARE THE WooDPEcKERs.-"As is
well known, they subsst principally upon
the larvae of the tree-beetles or borers,
which they obtain by picking holes in
the trunks and branches of the trees, and
thrusting in their long barbed tongues and
drawing the vernin from their lurking
places. Some of these woodpeckers have
at times been regarded as injurious, from
the fact that they are called, i'll some To-
calities, sap-suckers, from the mistaken
opinion that they suck the sap and eat
the soft inner bark of some of the trees"

Reasons Why the
AMERICAN WATCH
WALTHAM. MASS.

1t is made on the best principle. It's frame is
composed of SOLID PLATES. No jar can inter-
fere with the harmony of its working and no
sudden shock can damage its machinery Every
piece is made and finished by machinery Itself
famous for its novelty, as well as for its et-
fectiveness) and is therefore properly made
The watch is what all mechanism should be-
ACCURATE, SIMPLE, STRONG AND ECO
NOMlCAL. Except some high grades too cost
ly for general use, foreign watches are chiefly
made by women and boys. Such watches are
composed of several hundred pieces screwed and
riyeted together, aud require constant repairs 10
keep them in any kind of order. All persons
who have carried 'ancres," "lepines' and
english Patent Levers" are perfectly well
aware of the truth of this statement.
At the beginning of our enterprise, more than
ten years ago, it was our first object to make II
thoroughly good low-priced watch for the mil
lion, 10 take the place of these foreign impo-
stions-the refuse of foreign iactories--which
were entirely unsaleable at home and perfectly
worthless everywhere.
How well we have accomplished this may be
understood from the fact, that after so many
| years of public trial, we now make MORE THAN
HALF OF THE WATCHES SOLD IN THE
UNITED STATES and that no others have
ever given such universal satisfaction. While
this department Of our business is continued
with Increased facilities Tor perfect work. we are
at present engaged in the manufacture of watches
of the very HIGHEST GRADE KNOWN TO
CHRONOMETRY, unequalled by anything
hitherto made by ourselves, and unsurpassed by
anything made in the world. For this purpose
we have the amplest facilities. We have erect
ed an addition to our main building expressly
for this branch of our business, and have filled il
with the best workmen in our service. New
machines and appliances have been constructed,
which perform their work with consummate deli
cacy and cXactpess. The choicest and most APP
proved materials only are used, and we challenge
comparison between this grade of our work and
the finest imported chronometers. We do not
pretend to sell our watches for less money than
foreign watches, but we do assert without feal
of contradiction that for the same money our
product is incomparably superior. All our
watches of whatever grade, are fully warranted,
and this warrantee is good at all times against
us or our agents in all parts of the world.
CAUTION.-The public are cautioned to buy
only Of respectable dealers. All persons selling
counterfeits will be prosecuted.

TRAINING THE ToMATo.-It don't
pay to let the tomato vines trail on the
ground. The fruit decays, and does not
rpen. Brush, cut fine and placed under
the plants before they lop over, is clean,
cheap and excellent support. The vines
may be tied to a single stake, if pains are
taken to pinch off the side branches and
lead up central shoot. This is a French
method and is said to be successful
Trellises of various forms will suggest
themselves to every tomato grower. A
pile of stone laid around the plant would
he excellent, for it would keep the fruit
and also radiate good deal of heat to the
plant The tomato is a native of torrid
chimes and requires heat. The stone-pile
would admit of the plant taking natural
and advantageous form ofgrowth. Grass,
straw or boards will answer-at any rate
put something under the vines to preserve
the frnit. A small shrub, having many
limbs, may be stuck into the ground by
the side of plant, and it will afford a
good support.

Dairy Farm in California.

Two farmers of Vermont, some years
ago, emigrated to California, and now
own farm as below described:
They have a farm in Marin county,
California, known as the Point Reyes
Ranch, on the coast about 25 miles north
of San Francisco, of over 7l,O00 acres
of land, 10000 of which is very choice
dairy land, and being bounded on three
sides by salt water it receives the benefit
of the togs and moisture from the Pacific
ocean, which keep the feed good for dali
ry purposes full eight months in the year.
The other 3 700 acres is a wild and, in
many parts, heavily tmbered country,
but some 10000 acres of it is well adap-
ted for sheep grazing, they having herd
Of nearly 5000 running thereon at pres
ent, that thrive on the land the year round
without care, excepting herding at night.
These farmers expect, within three years,
to be milking upwards of 1000 cows
"twice a day." Mr.. Howard has been
east this summer TO visit the cheese man.
ufactories with the view of building one
on their farm. He has adopted plans for
erecting one of 1000 cows capacity, to
be in operation next spring, they being
the pioneers there in that business. But
the making of butter is the principal busi-
ness on this farm, the establishing of a
cheese dairy of 1000 cows being an ex-
pertinent, the result of which will inhu-
ence future operations in that line
With such an example before them as
butter dairy of 5000 cows, we should
suppose that the people of the young
and growing State of California would
not long import one-half the butter they
consume, as at present, but would soon
supply their own market, for Mr.. Howard
informs US that they make as good butter
there as is made in the best diaries in Cal
edonia county.

ANALYSIS OF Soils OF NO PRAcTlCAL
UTILiTY.--Most people suppose that if
the analyses of two different soils are
alike, the ground will be equally product
I've for any kind of crops. This is cor
rect in theory, but does not hold good in
practice. Judge French writes in the
Massachusetts PIoughnan ga poor soil,
chemically speaking, may give as good a
crop as rich one. Chemists usually
give their results in per centages, and call
a soil more or less fertile, as it contains
greater or less per cent. of plant food.
A heavy, rich loan, may often be render
ed more productive by the addition of an
equal bulk of pure sand, which would
reduce the mass fifty per cent. in its ap-
parent value, as chemically tested,''
