THE SpADING FoRK.-Wo are glad to
find that our effort to introduce this I'M
plcment as substitute in so many cases
for the clumsy spade, has been so gen
orally successful. We see them now in
general use A correspondent of the
journal of Agriculture says of it;
"I know of no tool that has been in
troduccd within few years that is so
useful as the spadiug fork. On an av-
erage, believe a man will do one-third
more work with it than with the common
spade and do it easier and better also
l speak of digging over the garden pre-
paratory to planting, or working among
currant bushes and the like; and then
for digging potatoes, I have found it one
of the best tools | have ever used 1t
may be used also in the cultivation of any
garIen crop when one has no horse, or
has not room to use him. There are al
ways little patches that must be worked
by hand, and no tool is so useful for this
purpose as the spading fork"
We have had some difficulty in getting
them good-many break off with heavy
work at the neck. There is kind found
in some of the hardware stores of Ph ila-
delphia, made by the g Williamsport Fork
Company" which are as near perfect as
ANYTHING can well be.

FEED THE FRUIT-TREEs. 1t must be
apparent to every rejecting person that
the material round about Il truit-tree,
which renders important aid in the pro-
duction of fine fruit of any kind, mus ne
cessarily be more Or less exhausted after
vine, bush, OR tree has produced abundant
crops for several successive seasons. For
example: A large pear-tree or apple-tree
will frequently yield from ten to six teen
bushels of fruit annually. Many trees
have produced more than twice these guam
titles at one crop.
After few seasons, the material that
the roots must be supplied with, in order
to develop fruit. will be more or less ex-
hausted. For this peason, fruit begiNs to
fail !; and the failure is often attributed to
an east wind, Or some mysterious atmos-
pheric influence, when, in reality, the sole
cause is starvation, arising from an I'M
poverished soil.
The remedy is to feed the roots Of all
kinds of fruit-tIees with lime, woodashes,
gypsum, chip-dirt, bones, fishes, and any
thing that will renovate an impoverished
soil 1t is evident that fruit-trees cannot
produce fine fruit out of nothing, or out of
such material as may be desirable for some
other purpose,

The farmer.
American Cows.

1t should not be inferred from tho fact
that our common or native" cows are
made up of mixture of foreign stocks,
that they are necessarily of inferior quail
ty. So far is this from being the case
that many might be selected from them
that would do credit to any highly i'm
proved breed The prevailing character
istic among them, as a whole, is tht ex-
treme want of uniformity to which allusion
has been made and this is not in form or
color merely, but in milking qualities, in
early maturity, and in fattcning tenden-
cies
There is well established principle
among the breeders of stock, that like pro-
duces like, and this is the basis of all sys-
TENS of improvement. Among the well
established races and breeds, there is little
difficulty in finding animals of remarkable
uniformity, but among a stock made up of
an infinite mixture, descended from such
widely distinct sources as we have seen,
this cannot so easily be done. Let us see
how this affects the farmers interest.
There is q native cow She came perhaps
from drove. Nobody knows where from.
But she is a remarkable mixer. She may
surpass all the cows about her and the
owner is anxious to have another Of the
same sort He raises her daughter at
great expense to the age of three or four
years, only to find her mparatively
worthless. His money has been thrown
away and he has lost good deal of time
to no purpose. That is really the weak
point of our native or common COWS
They are often of most excellent quality
as individual animals, but they do not pro-
duce their kind. Their is no certainty, and
hence we advise the use of pure breed
males which come from good milking
stock. They have the hereditary power
of transmitting their Inherent qua tiles
more strongly developed, and hence there
is more certainty in breeding from them.
A cross of our common cows with q
good Ayrshire or Jersey, or if the COW is
very large size, with the Shorthorn bull,
will, in large majority of cases, give sat.
isfactory results, and even if the calves
are to be sold to the butcher they will usu.
ally bring more to pay for the extra trou'
BILE. Lee us aim to improve our stoc H.

REMEDY FOR THE PEACH WORM.-Mr.
Isaac e. Mask, of Moorfsld, West Vir-
ginia, writes to the Country, Gentleman as
follows:
There is q, handy means for the de-
struction of this heretofore fatal enemy to,
the peach tree, which is practiced here.
which has proved certain beyond perad-
venture. 1t is simple, of;easy application
and expeditions. 1tconsists of the use of
boiling water applied to the collar of the
tree, in quantities varying according to-
the age of the tree. In small trees, say
one inch in diameter, half pint is suffi-
cient, and pint is enough for larger ones.
Remove the earth from around the tree
few inches from the body and few in
ches in depth and just pour the water boil
ing hot on the exposed roots, and 1T Will;
kill every egg as well as worm. with posi-
tive certainty. 1t has been tried here
time and again upon trees that were more
than half killed, and perfect restoration
has been the result in every case. No
danger need be apprehended from the ef-
fects on the trees Where a large number
of trees have to be operated upon. hre
should be made in the orchard for heating
the water, so that it can be applied boil,
ing hot. Considering the Importance of
this remedy to peach growers who may
not have heard of it, deem it but COM
mon justice to give it circulation through
the columns of your paper: Its certaiaty
as remedy may be implicitly relied upon

SOMETHING I'M DYING TO SAY.

There's something Pm dying TO say,
Though hardly know how to begin;
But to loose an occasion like this,
Would be foolish as well as sin;
So, now then for better or worse,
must surely proceed on my way;
But, dear me, how dreadful il is
To have something you're dying to say
You choose nice spot in the wood,
And handkerchief spread on the ground,
The fair one invite with blush,
TO partake of the seat you have found
And then if she smiling consent,
You awkwardly stand in the way,
"Cough that's as fur as you can get
In the something you're dying to say.
Or perhaps then with courage renewed,
You tremblingly sit yourself down,
She inquiringly looks in your face
You carefully look all around
And now with an effort so great,
As you think of the chance that you've got,
Say under your breath, "dearest girl,
l-I-Dont you think the weather is hot?"

1t is one of the singular condolences
connected with the dccease of Mr.. Henry
j. Raymond that he should have passed
the very last afternoon of bis life in ma
king arrangements for the reinterment Of
his son who died few months since and
still more remarkable that on the morning
of his death, he should have said to Mr..
Medil that he would prefer death by
apoplexy to any other, 1t is tradition
of the eloquent James Otis, Of Revolu-
tionary fame, that be had often expressed
desire that when his time should come
to die he might be struck by lightning;
and that one day he stood in the front
doorway of his house, with the door open,
as a small cloud passed over. One single
thunder-bolt only fell from it, and that
struck him and killed him instantly.

The change of color of the leaves in Au-
tumn from green to rcd has been attribu+
ted to the effect of acid, and it was assert
ed that the green color could be restored
by submitting the leaves to, the action Of
an alkali. This hypothesis, however, was
advanced without any basis of facts to.
support it, but the London Athen@um
now asserts that the theory has been es-
tablished by experiment. Autumn leaves
placed under an exhausted receiver with
vapor of ammonia, it is asserted, in nearly
every instance lost the red color and re-
newed their green. In some leaves such
as the sassafras, the blackberry and maple.
the change was rapid, aud could be.
watched by the eye, while Othcrs, particu-
larly certain oaks, turned gradually brown,
without showing any appearance of green.
