SLOW-FRUITING TREES.

1t is a common beliefthat dwarf pear trees
come into bearing earlier than the standard.
With us this has not been the case. Our
standards are equally as early. We have
several varieties of standard that commenced
bearing the second year and have borne ever
since. We have dwarfs planted from four to
fourteen years that have never borne single
specimen. We have other dwarfs that irui-
ted the second year and then stopped. We
have the standard Buerre d Aujou planted in
1858 and now for the FIRST time show few
specimens.
We have been often asked oflate if we were
not tired of dwarfs and had changed cur epin-
ion about them, and our answer has uniformly
been in The negative. We think as highly of
them now as we ever did, but we should not
plant them promiscuousy. We would not
select many varieties, as some never bear at
all, and others give but poor satisfaction.
The list published periodically in the Ger
mantogH Telegraph is selected from an expe
rience Of twenty. five years, and can scarcely
be improved on. We shall continue to cult
vate dwarfs along borders and little spare
spots where a standard would be too large,
and give them the same care that we would a
crop OF cabbages; but we shall set out only
such varieties as have proved to be long lived
and productive. Germantown Telegraph.

GRAPE,RAISING.

People who have large gardens where they
raise good deal of everything, have their
work done in the best manner, and the con
sequence is that crops are almost always GER
tain and abundant. From the amount of la
Dor bestowed upon these gardens and the
bioh state of cultivation in which they are
kent. failure is next to impossible. This is
as much the case with the grape crop es any
other. When vines for planting are careful.
" selected, planted rightly in ground express
" provided, and cut back for the first two
years, nicely trellised, and then pruned on
the renewal system, a good crop will be gath
cred unless the various enemies ofthe grape,
as is the case now and then, get ahead of all
precautions in the way Of prevention and
measures to destroy them should they aP.
pear.
But where there are only small gardens or
yards, and when the production of fruit is not
particularly attended to, and the grapevine
left to run at random OF improperly pruned,
good crop is scarcely ever obtained. For a
vine allowed to GO at large over tree will
yield for year or two plenty Of grapes, but
after that they become smaller in size, dimin-
ished in quality, and grow higher and higher
I'D the tree until they are worthless. 1t there
fore behooYes every one who plants grape
vine to give it the necessary attention and
thus insure a crop Of good fruit, barring un-
favorable seasons and manageable enemies.

CLEANSE YOUR PREMISES.

The warm weather is here, aud It behooves
every citizen to cleanse his premises of all Of
fensive matter in order that they may become
pure and healthy. There is no doubt at all
that great deal Of the sickness visiting fam
lies proceeds from filthy cellars: yards, out
houses, styes, &c. These things are neglect
ed by many as are other duties from pure
thoughtlessness, while others never dream of
paying any attention to them. There are
several remedies for this most unhealthy
condition Of things that can be easily applied.
The frst is to put one pint of the Hqnor Of
chloride of zinc in one bucketfuH of water,
add one pound of chloride Of lime, another
buckettul Of water, and sprinkle over de-
eayed vegetable matter For this purpose
nothing surpasses it; indeed II is perfect
deodorizer.- THE seconds totake four pounds
of sulphate of iron or copperas and dissolve
1t in bucEettull Of water. This will in most
cases prove a sure remedy in destroying all
offensive odors.-The third is to take simple
chloride of iron and sprinkle in damp cellers,
neaps offilth, dirty yards, &c. &c.
- ne labor Of cleansing ones premises by
e''neF one Of these remedies is trihiug, and
.ne expense is not worth mentioning Iii we're
ten umes greater, both the labor and expense
sn9ulu a pc willingly incurred. - Germantown

oII,l,lIp pRINING OR PTNCHTNG.


There is no one point in horticulture about
,vb;cb there has been more discussion than
,bo, of simmer pruning, and those who ad,
xocate. snd those who condemn it, stand in
abont the same relation as they did years ago
each the more confirmed in his own opiu-
ION. We consider it useful or injurious, ae-
cordine to the manner in which it Is done,
and the subjects upon which 1t is practleed.
To allow a tree to make vigorous shoots and
then cut them away in summer, or to pinch
the voune shoots without any thought OF the
effect. so long as something is pinehedi VIII
like ali other hap hazard work, be likely to
resul, in serious injury. Summer pruning IS
done. IN the first place, to regulate the form
Of the tree. Dwarf trees, especially, may be
so managed by rubbing out few needless
shoots here, and stopping the growth OF
another there, that there need seldom be any
pruning done. Nip out the growing
Doint with the thumb and finger and the
branch will cease to elongate; but after while
the buds upon the shoot viii push, and when
these have made few leaves. they must be
ripcbed in the same manner. The growth
from buds and gratis is often very vigorous;
that from buds often runs up as long, sue
culent wand, hardly strong enough to support
itself and with but little disposition to form
side shoots. By rinching at a proper height,
the buds along the sides will start, and with
aIale attention a low-headed, shapely tree
many be had. that win not need to be cut to
pieces in order to bring it into proper form
when PLANTED. Another use Of pinching is to
throw the tree into bearing. 1t Is now a we'll
received opinion that whatever threatens the
life of a. tree tends to induce truiting; hence
we hear of trees being made to bear by
hacking them with an axe, By root pruning
etc When the development usually sets
about making fruit buds, instead OF leaf buds
Pinching dwarf pear trees, the shoot from
the bud at the end of branch is allowed to
grow. and those starting along the sides of
the branch are pinched back to three leaves.
If shoots start from those that have been
pinched, nip them back to two leaves. The
leading shoot is shortened as many be desir'
ed. after growth is over. The formation of
fruit buds upon dwarf pears and apples is
fastened by pinohing.-From the american
