Mr Z Hacs Of ANnchinntnr OI;n

S~-S6 ~
Mr. F. Hess, of Washington, Ohio,
communicates the following to the Cincin-
matt Gazette:
have been trying TO farm for over for
ty years, and with some success; part of
the time in Western Pennsylvania, and
thirty-three years in Ohio. Where mOles
are troublesome in corn land, l pour hot
water mot bOiling) on seed corn; let it
stand two or three minutes, then drain it
of, and to one-half bushel seed corn put
two or three, not more, spoonfuls of tar;
mix thoroughly, then stir in dry ashes or
land plaster, as much as will adhere to it,
TO prevent sticking to the fingers when
dropping. II seed corn is treated in this
way, no moles will touch it. Also, q crow
will not pull up more than two or three
hills before he will conclude to seek a
breakfast somewhere else. l have pulled
up corn, planted in this manner, six or
eight inches high, when the roots smelled
strong of the tar. l should not wonder
if coal oil would have the same effect, as
its very disagreeable odor lasts a long
lime.
To keep rats from eating harness keep
it well creased with the following: To
three or four pounds of grease, add two
or three spoonfuls of tar; creased in this
way rats and mice will not eat them;
neither will horses chew them.
Posts for fencing should be cut in jan
uary or February, and when set should
be reversed, that is top end down, as the
pores of the wood go upward from the
heart; and, of course, when the top end
is up the water goes in, and the posts will
soon begin to rot off near the top of the
ground. have white oak posts in a
fence that have been set twenty-six years.
Thirty-two years ago, this spring, l set
gratis on some old Seeding trees. Some
of them are bearing yet. In grating old
trees set the gratis on the thriftiest limbs,
and in such way as to form well bal
anced top when grown. Cut away the
branches, so that the graft will have a
good chance. The second year remove
all the old top. Although grating an old
orchard secures fruit earlier, it is better
at the same time TO set out a young or
Chard, which will be more enduring.
To make grating wax, take equal parts
resin, tallow and beeswax, and melt to-
gether.

FARM AND GARDEN.

The Southern Farmer says if you
have any old apple, pear or cherry trees,
which formerly bore good fruit abundant
ly, but which now are barren and mere
cumberers of the ground, reflect whether
you are willing to make a little sacrifice
of labor and time to restore them to fruit
fuhess. If you are so disposed, try what
kind and generous treatment may do for
them. Perhaps they have gwen you va
rious crops of rich fruit, and you have
made no return but neglect and indiffer-
ence. Perhaps they may have been
choked with weeds and starved with bri-
ers; perhaps, like the prosecuted Israelites
of old, you require them ''to make bricks
without sGaw," or expect them TO bear
fruit while they are not fed with that
nourishment by which alone fruit can be
produced.
Go TO work, then. Dig or fork around
them Apply old manure TO the surface,
with a mixture of old lime plaster or turn
pike dust, and the sweepings of the pOul-
try house. Thin out all those small
branches which shut out the sun from the
interior of the tree; but do not cut out
any large branches. Scrape off all the
old moss and wash or paint the trunk and
large branches with strong lye or soft
soap. Remove all that crowd of suckers
which spring from the base of the stem,
and finish by good mulching of old rot
ten straw, corn-stalks, or some similar
material, and our word for it. the old tree
will repay in the next favorable season by
a return to its pristine fruitfulness.

HurIey's Popular Worm Candy.

As this is really specific for Worms, and the
best and most palaable form to give TO children, it
is not surprising that it is fast taking the place of
all other preparations for wOrms-it being per-
fectly tasteless and any child will take 1t.
hIessrs. James Ruddle & Co: Gentlemen-U
give me great pleasure t. say after using all the
other worm remedies known TO me, with but par
tial relief to my children, was advised to try DIR.
A. I. Hurley's and since using it, my children
have become quite well and healthy; the children
would eat 1t all the time, it is so pleasant if we
would LET them believe it is one of the best and
safest remedies known, and as such, recommend it
to one and all JAMES W. TRAVIS.

Say It over agaia. Hush. whisper It iowl

The echo is lingering stu in my heart,
And my eyes are heavy with tears.
Say Il over again; for it makes me dream
OF time that is passed away;
And the voices Of those loved come back,
And live in my heart to-day.
Let me hear 1t again: love that name
Il was sleeping on mem0rys shrine
TIL you eareisssy whispered, "eood-by, little

When the sound made me dream for q time.
You may say IL again, and III shut NV ewes
And wander far back in the past,
And fancy that am child once more.
And not growing old so fast.
THE ROBINS HAVE COME BACK
AGAIN.
There's cal upon the housetop, an answer from
the plain:
There's MARBLE in the sunshine, twitter in the
rain,
And through my heart, at sound of these,
There comes namelsss thrill
AZ sweet as odor to the rose
Or yerdure to the hill;
And all these joyous mornings
My heart pours forth this strain:
God bless the dear old robins,
Who have come back again"
For they bring thought of summer, of dreamy,
luscious days,
Of kngcups in the meadow, making golden haze;
longing for the clover blooms,
For roses all aglow
For fragrant blossoms, where the bees
With droning murmurs go;
dream Of all tha beauties
- OF summers golden reign,
And sing: "God keep the robins,
Who have come back again"
