IMMIGRATION Since ITO six millions,

who landed on our shores was "a. 40; Be-

A SMALLPOX Remedy.

A correspondent of the Stockton

| herewith append receipt which
has been used in hundreds of cases.
1t will prevent or cure the smallpox
though the pittings are filling. When
Jenner discovered the cow-pox in
England the world of science hurled
an avalanche of fame upon his head,
but when the most scientific school
of medicine in tho world-that of
Paris-published this receipt as a
panacea for smallpox, it passed I'M
heedsd. 1t is as unfailing as fate,
and cOnquers in every instance. 1t
is harmless when taken by a we'll
person. 1t will also cure scarlet fe-
yer. Here is the receipt as L have

scarlet fever; here it is as | have used
it to cure the Small-pox-when learn

Take tablespoonful every hour. Eli

there would be no need of pesthouses
If you value advice and experience

How to Make Good Bread.

Prof. Horsford recently gave a
public lecture in New York upon
1.-THE Philosophy of the Oven" in
which the whole history of bread
making was discussed. We extract
from the report Of the lecture the fol-
lowing directions for making bread:
'Select good, plump, fully ripened,
hard grained wheat. lave it freshly
ground and not too finely bolted
Prepare the yeast as follows: Boil
| thoroughly with the skins on, in one
quart of water, enough potatoes to
make quart of mashed potatoes.
Peel the boiled potatoes and mash
them to fineness; mix intimately with
them one pint Of -four, and Stir the

wound. This must be guarded
against by first cutting through the
bark below, and by having the limb
supported until the cutting is complet-
ed. 1t may be held up by means Of
pitchfork in the hands of an assistant
or in any other way that suggests it.
self. 1t is TO be borne in mind that
every wound made upon a tree, unless
1t heals over properly, sooner or later
leads to decay; hence too much care
cannot be taken to avoid accidents like
those referred to, as well as to put the
wound in such "a condition that the ex-
posed wood will remain sound until
covered by new growth of bark.
The rough surface left by the saw will
hold moisture and prepare The way
for decay, and it should be neatly
smOothed by the use OF d drawing
knife. The use of the saw is consider
ell so Objectionable in continental
Europe that ii is discarded altog ether.
The pruning there is done with
sGrpette, which is a heavy knife, much
( like a butchers cleaver; the clean sur
face lett by this in the hands Of an
expert operator needs very little trim
ming. The cutting is begun first
below the limb, and then continued
above. A chi~el, about three inches
rad, and heavy in proportion, is
also used in France, and by some
/ good operators in this country. Stout
handles OF various length are provided
for the chiscl, and by driving it up
from below with a mallet, limbs of
considerable size are easily and neatly
removed. In whatever way the limb
is taken off, the wound should be
covered, to protect the wood from the
weather. Melted grating wax is h
good application, and may be put on
with brush. In France coal tar is
used, but with this we have had no
experience. 1t is important to cut so
as to leave the smallest possible
wound. When the branch is nearly
right angles with the trunk, cut
straight across, and rs near to the
trunk as possible. If the branch is an
ascending one, making an acute angle
with the trunk, a cut close to the trunk
. would leave large, oval wound; in
this case the cut is to be little
oblique. We frequently see stubs six
inches or more in length, which never
should be the case. The wood Of these
pre- aetions after few years decays,
and the decay is communicated to the
tree. A wound properly made and
covered, heals in few years, with the
wood beneath it perfectly sound. Al
the end of the first year ring of new
wood and bark is formed. This ring
, increases, year after year, gradually
closing over the wound.-Americd1

THE Young MEN OF THE ACE
Not long since we saw a tear gather
ing in the eye Of an old man, as he
spoke of the past and present-of the
time when he burned pine knots
upon the rude home hearth, for a
light to obain scanty education, and
then compared the ten thousand
privileges which are now scattered
broad cast around every door. "Oh,"
said he, in tremulous tones, 1.-THE
young men of this day do not appre-
ciate the light of the age they live
in" The words of the old man
made us sad, while at the same time
we felt mortified that so many of our
young men fail TO improve the adj
vantages within their reach. They
are oven continually muttering about
their lot, and pushing for positions
where they can win the reward with
out the sweetening, purifying, EN-
nobling sacrifice of toll. The mist

neglect of the more honorable. intel

of our young men know anything OF
the value of the privileges around
them.

Pruning-The Why and How

So many letters have been received,
the purport Of which Is, "How shall
Z prune my trees?" that we propose to
devote a few remarks to pruning.
These queries corr s>4om those who
find tbaEnseiv es In charge of trees for
= tssrnfst time, and our remarks will be
written for such, rather than for the
experienced orchardist. Many think
that trees must have an annual prun
ing, just as in old times people used to
consider 1t necessary to have an an
nual bleeding. Scarcely any subject
connected with horticulture has been
more discussed than that of pruning,
and the novice Is bewildered when ne
reads that he must prune to make a
tree grow, and prune to check luxur-
liant growth; prune a tree if it bears
too little, aud If it bears too much
prune II. All these are correct, but
one had better not prune at all unless
he has some idea Of what he Is to do it
for 1t will be seen that we cannot
answer in general terms the question,
"H0w shall / prune my trees?" as
each case, did we know its condition,
would require different answer. For
the present we will, confne our re-
marks to the most frequently occur
ring cases, in which old trees have
become crowded with limbs through
neglect. Here the most careless OBJ
server must see that light and air must
be let into the head, and that crowded
and crossed branches must be removed.
This never need have occurred had the
tree been properly treated when young
but II Is now In this condition. and the
only helps surgery. Pruning is not
only needed, but judicious pruning
the tree must he studied, to see what
the effect will be of removing certain
limbs. The head must not merely be
made more open, but the tree at the
same time left shapely and well,bal
anced. Again, trees, where there il
much passing near them, often need To
have their lower limbs removed
" This is especially the case with shade
trees; and 1t may be remarked that
all our deciduous trees are pruned in
1i the same way, and mainly for the
same reasons, rs those of the orchard.
The removal of certain limbs having
been decided en-, the next thing is tC
