Whatever you have to say, my friend,
Whether witty, or grave, or gays
COndense as much as ever you can,
And say in the readiest way:
And whether yOu write of rural affairs,
Or particular things In town,
Just take word OF friendly advice
Boil IL down.
For II you 90 spluttering over a page
When q couple of lines would do,
Your butter Is spread so much, you sees
That the bread looks plainly througbs
So when yo1 have story to tells
And would like little renoWns
To make quite s1re OF your wish. my
y friend,
~ nsn writing an article for the press,
Whether prose or verse, just try
To utter your thoughts in the feWest
words,
And let them be crisp and dry;
And when IL is finished, and you suppose
II Is done exactly brown,
J ust look 1t over ain, and then
Boil 1t down.
For editors do not like to print
An article laZlly long,
Ar d general reader does not care
For a couple OF yards or song;
So gather your wits IN the smallest space,
Ii you'd win the authors crown,
And every time you write, my friend,
Boil II down.

This IoEe 1t so fills up my heart, my dear,
Sure there's room for naught else to

That my heart is kept free from al sin,
For while thinking of you

SO 1zlT heart Is Kept free from all sin.
Then you are q talisman true, my dear,
To drive from nae evil away;
And, as charms OF the kind are usually

For you ever to be

The Fruit Grol0er's Creed for setting
out young trees.
1st. Because they cost less.
"a. The freight is light.
3D.. It is easier to prune the head.
4th. They viii outgrow larger and
older trees, which have to be cut back
when transplanted.
There is much gain in planting big
trees. Eight years ago the writer set
one, two, three and four -year-old trees
the same day, and on the same soil.
The very FIST apples. of course, came
from the foIr-year- r-old trees; but they
were few IN numbers, and to-day the
one and tWo-year old are the most
vigorous, and have borne in the ag-
gregate the most fruit. In setting a
large orchard the one and tWo-year-
old trees l verify believe are the most
profitable.
HEELING IN.
This is a favorite process with some
planters who purchase their trees in
the fall, heel them in during the win
ter, aHd in the spring are able to set
them out earlier than they could OBJ
tain the same from any nurseryman.
Hseling in is simply digging
trench, say two feet wide and one
spade deep. and long enough to hold
whatever number of trees you have.
Commence at one end of the trench,
laying your trees in slanting posi-
ton, and cover the roots we'll with
earth, pressing it firmly with your
foot. Then put in another layer, as
before, and so on till all are heeled
IN" Now, dig a trench one spade
deep all around this bed of trees,
throwing the dirt on the trees near
the ground. and over all put few
inches deep of straw for Winter pro-
tection,

Last evening after dark Mcmahon

Tha army of the Crown Prince of

captured over 10000 French prisoners.
A number of French soldiers escaped
