Cultivate Apple Trees.

Acorrespondentin IN Montgomery County, Pa,
informs us that he can succeed with bis orchard
in obtaining a crop as well rs any other field
product upon bis farm. He commence his or
chad by selecting his trees himself in the
nursery. as a farmer selects bis seed before SOW
ing, helps to take them up. as farmer secures
his seed hauls them home late in the after
noon or evening puts them in where they are
to be planted until next day has the ground
prepared beforehand and the holes dug re-
moves and sets the trees as he needs them in
the most careful manner, applying two buckets
Of water to each tree-one when the hole Is
half filled up, the other when entirely filled,
leaving the ground around the tree bow-like.
Stakesiirmly, mulchcs, waters occasionly, keeps
all cattle and hogs ont, and when the trees arc
a few years planted, twice year, spring and
fall, scrapes the trunk, scrubs it severely with
COW urine gathered in a tank from the stable,
using half bucket TO q tree, and gives them a
thorough examination to ferret out any worms,
etc. He says it is not nearly as much labor as
any other crop on the farm. Farmers, do you

Girls Should Learn to Keep House.

No young lady can be too well instructed in
anything that will affect the comfort of fam
ily. Whatever position in society she occu-
pies, she needs practical knowledge Of
household duties. She may be placed in such
circumstances that it will not be necessary to
perform much domestic labor but on this ac-
count she needs no less knowledge than if she
was obliged to preside personally over the
cooking stove aud pantry. Indeed, have
thought it was more difficult to direct others,
and requires more experience, than to do the
same work with our own hands.
Mothers are frequently SO nice and particu-
lar. that they do not like to give up any part
Of the care to their children This is great
mistake in their management, for they arc Of

some mothers give their daughters the care
Of housekeeping each week by turns. II
seems to me a good arrangement and a most
useful part Of their education. Domestic la
Dor is by no means incompatible with the
highest degree Of refinement and mental cul-
ture. Many Of the most elegant and accom-
plished women have known boxed well to
their household duties, and honored themselves
and their husbands by so doing.
