Candy-EatiDg.

.'Shall let my children eat candy p
is question over which parents are some
times puzzled This is not surprising, for
doctors and doctors books to differ upon
the question Some teach that candy is
au evil to be avoided others, who like 1t
themselves, say that white candies are at
least harmless, and may be eaten at dis
cretou Neither side is quite right. -
The chief injury that candles do, Is that
of spelling the appetite for other food
When honestly made, colored candy is
quite harmless in itself Thus the red
candies are colored with beet juice. But
it is safer on the whole to stick to the
white candies, hich are made of starch
and sugar favored, The love OF sugar Is
Il natural and healthy appetite, especially
in children, who need more saccharine
matter than grown persons. Yet they
should not be allowed to eat sugar to the
exclusion of heartier food. BY devour
ing candy in large quantities between
meals they spoil their appetite, and often
injure their digestion. This is the only
serious objection to candy eating A good
rule in the matter is to prevent the child
from eating candy so near meal times as
II make him leave full plate of break
fast or dinner But after meal he can
eat as much as he chooses without pre-
occupying his appetite for the next
Good candy, eaten at the ri ght time, is
an excellent food.-Uearth and II ne.

piled to it coating of whiting mixed
with glue, and passed over hot cylenders
to give it the requisite polish then it is
covered with linen cloth, or in some
eises has the fac sinaile Of cloth engraved

the paper is divided into sheets or rolls

AGRICULT T U 3 a L.
Keep a Few Sheep.

\ correspondent of the Country Gen.
tleman pithily says
Some way or other agriculture seems
incomplete without flock of sheep
They are essential to the thick set long
evity of the old grass land, and all the
world over and in olden times they were
esteemed as most important, and IN the
most improved agricultural country, VIZ
England, they are cherished by every far
mer, from the highest to the lowest The
wool is one Of the incomes which can not
be dispensed with, and the fiocks are so
managed that the tegs cut heavier and
more valuable feeces than older sheep
in fact, teg heeces in England not only
weigh thirty per cent. heavier than those
OF the ewes, but make ten or more per
cent higher prices. Ifany tenant farmer
in the regular agricultural districts Of
England farmed without sheep, he would
soon lose his crops, and nobody would
rent to man who did not practice sheep
husbandry.

How Appie Trees Grow.

II wc make q deep hole with crow

with sand and mellow soil and plant ap
pie seed in autumn near the suface of the
ground where the hole was made the
next spriHg the seeds will throw out
root directly downward, until the end
reaches the strata Of perpetual moisture
tare, provided the earth is not so firm that
root cannot extend further; and stem
Will commence pushing upward, at the
same time bearing the apple seeds on the
end, to the surface, where the kernel vii
separate into equal parts forming the seed
leaf OF the young tree. Meanwhile, the
tap root continues to obtain more firm
hold Of the soil which fortifes the tree
against injury incident to dry weather.
La a c0ngenial soil, resting on porus
subsoil, tap root Of a tree of most any
kind, will extend farther, by actual meas
urement, into the earth, when the tree i,
three or four years old, then the top has
grown upward d-But, when the trees
have been produced from pieces of roots
planted Ia nursery rows, they rarely send
down tap roots Consequently such trees
can be taken mp and transplanted for more
advautageously that if the tap root was
severed and left in the ground. So long
as vegetation does not suffer from pro
tracted drouths it will mako no difference
whether the tree has top-root or not
But when the roots rear the surface can
not imbibe one drop of moisture out OF
the dry soil, if there be no tap root TO
bring up moisture to the leaves, the fruit
must fail, and the tree will receive such
INJURY that the half formed buds can not
yield lruit the season. Every tree ought
TO sPriag IRON the seed where the tree is
to grow. If hole few feet deep. and
hlled with sods or mellow, soil, and an D..
pie seed or pear seed, chestnut or hick
cry nut, were planted in autumn. and the
SOIL kept clean, or were mulched during
the summer, when the land is poor. a tree
would push upward over twenty feet in
one decade of years and if the ground
were rich it would grow thirty feet in the
same period.
