The Presidents Heroic Son

Gen. Grants oldest son, Fred, of the
cadets at West Point, saved the life OF
his cousin on the 18th. 1t appears that
the sons of the President and a son OF
General Dent were visiting their uncle,
DR.. Sharpe,out at Laurel, and the younger
boys were in bathing. DR.. Sharpe's son,
aged eleven years, got beyond his depth
and was drowning, when young Fred,
without undressing jumped in, grasped
the boys hair as he was going down the
third time and with some difficulty sue
ceeded in getting him out before other
assistance arrived. The lad was resusci-
tated and young Grant was the hero OF
the day at Laurel.

PRUNING ToMAToEs-The long spell
of broken weather has caused tona TO
vines to grow rapidly, but has not encour-
aged the blossoming, or setting of fruit.
A good way of producing tendency to
produce fruit is to cut off the tips-head
them down to at least one-third of their
height. The tomato requires good as
pect, as mach sun, and as little Shade as
possible. The soil should be mellow and
requires to be frequently stirred. Toma-
toes may be trained on stakes or trellises
or brushed" like peas, with very good
results. Very large plants growing in a
bad aspect may be taken up carefully,
late in the evening, and set out in good
one, large ball of soil being taken up
with the roots; water and shade should
be provided until the roots have become
established in their new position.
The branches which come directly over
the leaves should bepinched off, for these
do not produce blossoms. This will
throw the strength of the vines into the
fruit. This pruning should not take
place until after the plants have produced
blossoms enough for supplying a fair crop
of frnit. 1t is probable that on account
of the GOODNESS and backwardcss of the
season, tomatoes will want more than or.
binary care in order to produce early ma.
turity, or, in fact maturity at all. Toma.
toes may be trained against board OF
picket fences; the latter are the best, fol-
they admit more air than the former
which keeps the plants healthy and vigo.
rous. tomatoes are generally planted toe
close together, and allowed to form thick
bushy heads, which shut out the rays Of
the sun from the fruit.

A BERKsHIRE, Mass, paper relates that
at town meeting in New Marlboro, TWEEN
ty or twenty i've years ago, a man named
Gideon Garfield dropped down dead. He
had Just signed a subscription paper for
repairing the church, and turning away,
died before the ink with which he wrote
his name was dry upon the paper At
that meeting, Levi Hall, of Mill River re-
marked that when he died he wished he
might die the same way. And strangely
enough not long afterward, Mr.. Hill came
into his house one afternoon, sat down in
rocking, chair, and died almost instantly,
his wish being fulfilled to the very letter.

To MAKE CUTTINGS GRow.-I used to
have a great deal of trouble to make cur
rant and gooseberry cuttings or slips grow,
until ! tried the following plan I boil
ed some potatoes until they were nearly
done, and then stuck one on each slip and
put 1t in the ground. Every slip sprouted
and grew we'll all summer, with but one or
two exceptions. The idea of putting the
boiled potatoes to the end of the cuttings
was to furnish and keep moisture enough
for them to grow, until the roots became
large enough to gather this moisture and
substance from the soil. l never
tried it on grape cuttings, but do not see
any reason why it would not do as well
with grapes as with any thing else.
