Roof PRUNING.-The "practicap part of
the operation is very simple. A circular
trench is opened to expose the roots and
they are then severed by means of a very sharp
spade. The point where there is the most
difficulty is to Judge how much to prune.
The object is to check the growth of the tree
and induce it to form fruit and while remov-
ing too large n share of the roots will cut off
too great supply of nourishment, the remov-
al of too little will defeat the object sought.
For young trees, Rivers advises that the trench
should be foot from the tree for every inch
of the diameter of the trunk. Thus tree 3
inches through would have the trench feet
from the tree on all sides, making circle 6
feet in diameter, of which the tree is the cen.
ter. All the roots outside of this circle are
to be cut off. But no fixed rule can be appli.
cable to trees in all conditions and much
must depend on the judgment Of the opera.
tor. The work may lie done in autumn or in
early spring.

damage the prospects, OF the bill? Or
was 1t instinctively felt that the
odious ranking privilege was best
buried in silence?
Or was it felt that debate might
lead tV change and compromise:

tions been introduced into n bill that

privilege; 20 far Ms we can learn they
are not greatly pleased vt the popular
petitions for the abolition of that

thing, they OverdO. Pressed by the
Postmaster General and the people
to deny themselves the privilege Of
ranking tons Of Pub. Doc.," old
boots, dirty linen, etc., ETC., etc.. they
abolish with the greatest haste all
ranking privileges. IS
This is not just what the POstmas-
ter General or the people have re-
quested. Quite questionable Is the
prOpriety of denying to the local pa
per, hard pressed by the competition
OF our CITY Journals, all the little
boon of free circulation in the county

evils arise from continuing to accord
to postmasters the guarded privilege
/, Of sending free letters on official
