A gentleman in Salem, Ohio
thinks he has discovered q method
of saving plutns from being destroy
ed by the eurculio. If so, ho has
conferred a great benefit upon the
lovers of good fruit. The Salient
Republican states that last year hc
had in market some of the finest
plums offered for sale. He pre-
served them from the sting of the
curculio BY simply burning tar
under the trees at the time the
fruit vas shaping. He continued
the process for three days, but
thinks it would have been still bet.
ter Rad he commenced a little ear.
lier and burnt q few days longer.
The process is simple one, and
cheap. Swarms of the insects
were seen leaving the trees as tho
fires were kindled. The result
was a large, healthy and luscious
crop Of piums, whilst neighboring
orchards nearly or quite failed,
! We commend TO our readers a tri-
al Of this mode. .

Immediately upon his arrival
he commenced bizness, for other

had plenty tew do.
Ho was very ekonomical in his

always kindly furnished with Il

In these trips he seldum took
his family with him, they were
either allowed to remain at hum,
or made excursions in search OF
work to other Statess under the
guidanso of experienced guides.
Once in a while the Black Man
would stray away to the cold and
bitter North, and get cruelty lost.
Iiiz guides would mourn foF
him then, and sarch for him, but
hiz family soon got rcconcilcd tew
The loss. '
Everybody sed, WHARF he lived,
that ho was the happiest critter
that had ever bin discovered yet,
with nothing tew do but work, and
a kind guide tew watch over him
awl the time, and mourn for him
when he got lost.
But tho Black man is q very
phoolish or liter.
After 200 years ov this bliss, he
grew cross tew hiz guides, aud
wouldn't follow the guides, and the
konsequentz il, that tho guides
have got mad, and L am afrade

WELL PUT,--Isaac Kinly writes
very suggestivoly for tho NORTH
leStcrn Farmer. He supposes one
to have farm of eighty acres,
worth $50 an acre. Interest on
this amount, together with thccost
of team and tools, with tho wear
and tear, would give an annual out
lay of $3.50. Now suppose he SO
cultivate his land as to get so bush
els of corn, Is of wheat, 9 of oats,
SO of potatoes, and Il tons of hay
per acre, he will have, at present
prices, total of S1,ll2, or netsum
Of s7S2 for his labor; provided ho
does his own work.
This will not leavo much for old
age or a wct day. But supposing
that we have q torty.acre farm, tho
the outlay will be but S205 year
instead of $3.50, because the amount
in the land is but $4,000 instead of
$4,000. Then suppose he so Guilt
vate and fcrtilize his forty acres as
to produce 100 bushels corn, 30 of
wheat, so Of oats. 400 of potatoes
and % tons OF hay per acre, he
will have total of So, ,235, or u
net balance of $1,000 against tho
s7S2 on the eighty acre too.much-

This gives him a handsome sur
plus income to lay by and to spend
for solid comfort.
Besides this, the small but rich

like himself, and thus, while he
trsbles his own profits, he doubles
