The Prairie Farmer says: The impression
is common among our farmers. that late "short
ening iu'' of hedge plants tends to ripen them
mp, and 80 lessons the probability of winter
killing. A little experimenting will convince
any one that the result Of cutting back hedge
plants. or plants Of any kind, late in The season
ia to lower their vitality. and to cause them to
60 into winter with their juices in crude
state, instead of being developed into healthy,
matured cellular tissues. The cause of thiAit
is easy to understand.
When the plant is growing with all its parts
complete, the true nutritious sap has its rc,;u-
lar channels of circulation in the lactferous
tissue. In these channels nature has provided
for its perfect development and elaboration in
to woody cellular growth. When plant in its
active growth is suddenly deprived By pruning
of large part Of its leaves and elaboration
vessels, more sap is thrown up from the roots
than can be developed into health wood struc-
ture; and the result is, if the pruning is done
late in the season, there il not time for recu-
perstion b. tile perfection Of neu plan OF cir
culation and -'pening up. and in ninety nine
cases out of hundred the plan. goss into win
ter in a stunted, unripe condition.
The three-thcrncd acacis is = hardy, indigo
nous tree, and Under proper treatment: is per-
haps our best northern hedge plant. But it
will not stand summer pruning. Thousands Of
rods in northern Illinois and Iowa have been
literally winter killed urder this plan. giving
rise to nou common report that this plant is
but little harder than the Usage.
Summer cutting back of hedge plants early
in the season, not later than the Goth of June.
is not necessarily injurious. There is still,
time in the economy OF plant growth to estab
lish new system of circulation and of prepar-
alton for winter. When the pyramidal form of
hedge is desired, q severe cutting back before
sap starts in spring. and light one in June, is
all that is needed. For common field hedges
the plan Of letting the plants grow all they will
for the frs: three or four years. and then plash
ing, is without doub. the practical common
sense one. Aft.r FLASHING. an annual spring
cutting ia all that will be needed.

PosTs. Tor lrr OR Burr DowN.-The editor
of the American Agriculturist is so afraid ofbe-
ing bumbugged that be often rejects the truth.
He stated in answer to an inquiry, that posts
would last equally as well top CT but: down.
But I know this is not 30, and will prove it.
About ls years ago my brother made 100 rods
of silt fierce laid upon short posts driven Is
inches into the ground.
These posts were all from the same burr
oak tree, and sharpened without regard to top
or butt. A few years since helped him re-
move his fence, and found perhaps half Of the
posts rotted of, and what was most singular,
cap posts were often sound, heart ones rotten,
which excited our curiosity to ascertain the
cause, and VIC found the sound ones set top
down, the rotten ones butt down.
II is said that can ounce of preventive is
better than pound of cure" upon the same
principle, one fact ought to be of more value
than many theories, hence these facts are pre-
eented to the public-Prairie Farmer.

A DEFENSE OF THE CRow.-The crow in
m any parts of the world is considered ma.
rauder of the farm, and the gun is pcrseveringIy
used for his determination. The most able
writer's on ornithology, and others who have
studied bis habits, agree that instead of being
a robber and pest to tae farmer, he is one OF
the most faithful friends and beneiactors. lie

ties Of grubs, worms and noxious vermiR; be is

offensive masses Of decaying animal subs.an
cess be hunts tie grass fields, and pulls ont
and devours tee underground caterpillars, wher.
ever he perceivrs the sign of their operations
as eyinced By the xilted stalks; be destroys
mice, young rats. lizards and snakes; lastly, he
is volunteer sentinel about the farm, and
drives the hawk from its Enclosures, thus pre-.
venting greater mischief than that of which he
is himself guilty. 1t is chiefly during seed
time and harvest that the cePredations Of the
crow are committed; during the remainder of
the year We witness only his services and so
highly are those services, appreciated by those
who have written of birds, that we cannot name

STRIPED Dues.-All who raise melons, Gu
cumbers, &C., know what pest the striped
bug is. perhaps few know how easy it is to pre-.
vent its ravages.
Some six years ago commenced starting
melons, cucumbers, and squashes in small
frames with one or two lights Of glass over, so
as to secure their early growth.
My frames were not over three inches high
on the lowest side, and found that nothing
within the frames was disturbed BY these bugs,
whereas the same kind of plants grown a few
feet distant, having no frames, were entirely
destroyed.
To make a sure thing of it. l have left off
frame for a night, and in the morning the
plants would be almost devoured by the bugs,
but on driving them of, and placing the frame
again, no more bugs would be found on the
plauts.-Counfry Gentleman.

and with cordial shake OF the hand OF Judge Kelly
did something towards showing the warmth OF
their regard.
1t was evident that there a conspiracy OF some
SORT but what it was was not very clearly revealed
until
Judge Dowling arose and said-
Judge KKLLYI selected by tho attaches Of this
10 present you with token of the regard and eseem they all
entertain towards and the great respect felt by them
towards whis acting Justice In the Special Sessions
They take very great pride In doing because you arc
not In the same Official position that were last year
Any little outward show Of their regard would have looked
like seeking for avors Nov such construction can be
put upon their motives for have retired from public fe
vision. Therefore they feel that they make this present
with very good grace and that win understood be-
what really s free will Offering of those who hope
always to deserve to have the privilege of friendship
Judge Bowling then handed Judge Kelly gold
watch and chain, and said to the Judge In handing

County Court House, The room formerly occupied

with taking from him thirty-four dollars. Rowland
said he had been recently discharged from his ship
after long voyage, and he got into some OF the low
districts OF the city, where he met the defendant,
whom he had known some years ago. Gilmore
asked him to take 80 drink, and he went with him.
About five minutes after he had drank he felt him
self stupifed, and on coming to himself found that
he had been robbed Of the above amount Gilmore
was sentenced to six months imprisonment and
fine Of fifty dollars.
Judge Dowiing IN sentencing him remarked very
strongly upon the conduct OF '1andshaTks like Gil

around to clear men like the complainant out their
hard earned, honest wages
