IMPROVE THE HOMESTEAD.

The first thing should press on the farm
ers, in the way of improvements, would be
what we might call roadside improvement
Keep the cattle off the highways, keep the
weeds cut close, and lines of shade trees on
each side-this, with neat fences, will be an
evidence Of civilization to begin with. Then
would eDioin the removal from the roadside
near the dwelling, of all dilapidated and bro
ken implem1nts, which are so apt, somehow
or other, to accumulate.
The barn and other out-buildings are very
frequently located more on the principle OF
convenience than good taste, but we must
take these things as they are, and improve
them with paint or wash of some sort, and a
good thick belt Of rapid growing trees around
them, both for shelter and shade, and to
partly conceal their unsightly appearance.
Then, as for the door yard, l would dig up
root out all the old neglected plum, peach
cherry and ounce trees, that seem to have
sprung up by chance in the fence corners
All the finer fruits, 1 would form into nice
fruit garden of half an acre to two acres, al
might be necessary, There | would have q
complete collection of pears, cherries, apri
cots, plums, ounces, all the small fruits sys
tematically planted and carefully cultivated
This garden might be made one of the mos
interesting portions of the premises, to say
nothing Of the abundant supply of fine frui
and vegetables it would yield. Here tht
family could acquire taste for gardening, a'
well as learn to practice it.
Then the ground about the house l would
convert into a smooth lawn, which must bt
kept cut close all summer. This lawn mus
be suitably embellished with deciduous anC
evergreen trees, Towering shrubs, roses, &c
This is the way preach to the farmers when
| visit them, but only once in a great while
with any effect. 1t is shame for our we'll
to-do farmers that they are so behind in thiI
matter. 1t makes farm life so dull and drea
ry pursuit, that l am not surprised to see
all the brighter boys run away from 1t, and
our rural population, growing less and les:
every year. Then think how much these i'm.
Of the farms. A nice house, some good fen
ces, an orchard, increase the value of 6
farm from $50 to S25 per acre, other things
being equal, but carry out such suggestions as
have made and what do you suppose il
would add to the value of farm? Almost
double i'll This argument has some weight
it touches the pocket, but the moral effect Of
such improvements would be absolutely in
calculable.-P. Barry.

CELERY.

The plan followed by the Jersey market
gardeners for growing celery, possesses many
advantages over the customary method of
setting the plants in deep trenches, es,-involv-
ing much labor for digging the trenches and
subsequent earthiug up.
The dwarf varieties are most profitable,
and for winter use should be transplanted
from the middle of July to the middle of Au-
gust, as nothing is gained by attempting to
grow it in the hot days of early summer
We mayuse the ground from which aspiring
crop of beets, onions or peas has been remov-
ed, and if the ground has been well manured
for these crops. the Celery win need no addi'
tional application Of fertilizing matter. Lines
are struck out on the level surface three feet
apart, and the plants set six inches apart in
the ows,-pressing the soil firmly about the
roots to exclude the air until new rootlets are
formed AS soon as the plants are fairly
started, say about the middle Of August, the
earth is drawn closely about them with the
hoe, and then pressed closely around each
plant with the hands,-frm enough to keep
the leaves in an upright position and prevent
them from spreading, This is termed chan
ding" The banking process is then finish
ed with the spade, the soil from be-
tween the rows and banking it up clear to the
top on each side of the row of the Celery.
we wish the Celery entirely for winter
use, no thanking up with the spade is need
ed, and nothing beyond the handling, y
which in this case should not be done before
the middle of September, or just long enough
before the Celery is dug up to keep it in an
upright position.
Celery will stand all the frost we have in
this climate up to about the middle of Novem-
Der. The crop should be dug from the first
to the middle of November. Select the dry
est ground. Dig a trench as narrow as pos
sible, no or II inches,) and in depth just the
height of the Celery. The Celery is put in
as nearly perpendicular as possible, and so as
to FIJI it up entirely,-its green tops being on
a level with the top of the ground. No earth
is put to the roots other than what may ad-
here to the plants in taking them up. There
is always moisture enough at the bottom of
the trench, at the cool season, to keep the
plant from whiting.
Cover gradually with some light manure
of straw and leaves, increasing gradually un-
til about the last of December, when it will
require at least foot of covering of some
lght. dry material.
The reason that it cannot bear the full Gov
ering at first is that the heat generated from
the closely packed Celery could not pass of,
and decay to some extent takes place.-A 5.

WASH FOR TREEs.-It is probably little
late to wash trees with view to the destruc-
ton of insects, yet it is never too late to do
good, and washing the trunks of trees with a
proper mixture viii not only kill insects but
it viii add greatly to the health of the tree.
For wash We have already recommended
whale oil soap, which we have found to be an
excellent application, seeming to combine all
the ingredients distasteful to insect life. Re
Gently petroleum and common soft soap, in
the proportion of a pint of the former to a
allon and half of the latter, is considerably
used. We have no doubt this will answer,
and it is in some respects similar to the 9th
er. We also see recommended the old appli-
cation made Of sulphur, tobacco and lime,
mixed with water, but we like the others
better. a scraping and scrubbing of the
trunks OF trees, say twice year, will exer.
else wonderful influence upon the health
and productiveness of the trees Germon.
