Some Hiats OH Pruning Trees.

A great deal has been said In the
papers about the best time for pruning
trees, and we are prepared to concede
that the summer months are the best,
that the wounds will then heal over
the quickest, and that the least injury
is then done to the tree If the tree
raiser will make experiment., as all
ought to do. he will find in which
months WOUNDS are healed over quick
est. There is great deal of trnth in
the rule, however, to prune in winter
for wood growth, and In summer for
fruit but the wounds in winter do
not heal over SO quickly, aud water
shoots are very apt to be thrown ont
when amputation has ta ken place. The
true theory Of all pruning, however, is
to so guide the growth Of limbs as to
have no severe pruning at any time.
Start the head of the tree right, in its
infancy, and if any branches are going
astray cut them off with your pocket
knife at any time. No larger pruning
instrument should go into an orchard
at any time than pruning knife, and
no larger one is needed if used at the
proper time The effect of pruning is
to regulate the growth Of the tree, and
throw the sap into the proper chan-
ncls, to form a well-balanced head with
all parts open to the sun, SO that the
fruit may have size and color Many
go into their orchards aud saw of large
| limbs, cutting off more brush than they
! leave on the tree, mangling and butch
ering it horribly. There are laws iol
preventing cruelty to animals, and
there should alss be the same for
preventing cruelty to trees. The laws
of vegetable physiology should be as
we'll understood by him who endeavors
to regulate and promote the growth aud
fruitfulness of trees, as the laws OF ami
NAL physiology should be understood
by him whose profession it is to regu-
late and bring to normal condition
the animal system when out Of order
Orchards should be visited often at this
season of the year, with pruning knife
in hand, aud kind attention given t.
| every tree Trees should be considered
| adopted children, and their every want
attended to. They should have q good
| rich sell, which should be we'll worked
that thrifty growth may be made

The great rivers of America are wonderful.

Ohio, James, Tennessee, Roanoke, Mobile. Ala.

others, during the warm seasons, are partieu-

Trust wh Il Time has Sanctioned.

The maxim that the voice of the people is
the voice Of the divinity. may in some cares
bc open to doubt. but the testimony of honest
and enlig ghtenel witnesses extending through
a series of years, aud all to the same puIport
is worthy Of credonce, admits of no question.
Upon such testimony the reputation Of Ifostet-
ter's Stomach Bitters as an antidote and cure
Tor many ailments is based. During the 90
years that il has been before the world innu-
merable preparations intended to compete with
it, have gone up like rockets. come down the
extin guished sticks Meanwhile the progress
of that Incompatible tonic has been swift and
steady-always upward aud onward like the
eagles fight. It's introduction produced rev {.
olution in theraputics. and it proved to he one
backwards. To-day Hostetters Bttcrs is one
the most popular remedies in chrstendom, and
commands larger sale than any other med
ical preparation, domestic or imported, on this
side ofthe Atlantic. As cure for dyspepsia, bill
ious disorders, nervous affections, general de-
bility, and as preventive of epidemic fevcrs,
it takes precedence of every other remedy. This
fact should teach the ambitious country deal
ers who endeavor to foist their local abortions
on tho public in its stead how futile their small
attempts to cajee the community must neees-
sarily be. When the game fish have failed
there is no chance for the suckers.

4 locomotive. running as an extra
on the Hudson River Railroad, arrived
at New Hamburg from Poughkcepse
on Saturday, being stopped there by II
telegram from that city in consequence
Of singular, and what might have
been a tragic incident Before the
locomotive left Poughkeepsie, four
little boys who were playing about the
depot, supposing it was switch en-
CINE, and only going a little way down
the track, climbed stealthily upon the
wooden guard just above the bumper
on the rear of the tender. The guard
is only six inches wide Three of the
boys sat down upon the guard, with
their legs hanging over, aud the fourth
got astrlde Of the iron link which pro-
trudes from the bumper. They could
not be seen by the men upon the on
CINE, which moved oft, and continued
increasing its speed, until it was going
at the rate Of forty miles an hour, as
was ordered. The boys were in ter
ribIe situation They dared not climb
to the top of the tender for fear Of
losing their. balance, and their cries
were drowned by the noise Of the en-
CINE. Over bridges and along the
edge of precipices they were whirledr
the tender surging to and fro, the dust
filing their eyes and noses, aud almost
choking them to death, and entirely
obscuring them from the view of the
fagmcn and trackmcn who were passed.
The locomotive was signaIcd at New
Hamburg, M James Signor having
seen the boys on the rear Of the loco
motive when it left Poughkcepsie. The
poor little fellows presented sorry
sight, as they were covered with dust
from head to foot The boy who was
astride of the link was unable to walk
when taken off, his legs being awfully
chafed by the motion of the engine.
The hands of the other boys were blis-
tered terribly, and the blood oozed out
from under their finger nails, so tightly
had they grasped the woodwork of the
tender. They were nearly exhausted,
and could have maintained their posi-
tion but little longer, when they would
have probably been instantly killed by
the fall. They were taken back to
Poughkeepsie, where the incident had
become noised about, and large crowd
of people was in waiting at the depot to
see them when the train they were on
arrived -Netionai Car Builder.
