Remedy for the peach worm.

There is handy means for the de-
struction of this heretofore fatal enc
my to the peach tree, which is practic-
ed here-which has proved certain,
beyond peradventure. 1t is simple,
of easy application, and expeditions.
1t consists of the use of boiling tcater,
applied to the collar of the tree, in
quantities varying according to the
tree-in small trees, say one inch in
diameter, half pint is sufficient, and
a pint is sufficient for larger ones.-
Remove the earth from around the
tree a few inches in depth, and just
pour the water boiling hot on the ex-
posed roots, and it will kill every egg
as well as worm, with positive cer-
tainty. 1t has been tried here time
and again, upon trees that have been
more than half killed, and perfect
restoration has been the result in ev-
cry case.
No danger need be apprehendcd
from the effects of the hot water upon
the trees, unless a large quantity is
applied to a very small tree. When a
large number of trees have to be ope-
rated upon, fire should be made in
the orchard for heating the water, so
that it can be applied boiling hot
Considering the importance of this
remedy to peach growers who may
not have heard of it, deem it but
common justice TO give it circulation.
Its certainty as remedy may be i'm
plicitly relied upon.-Country Gent.

Pears on Thorns,

While we do not advocate the gen.
eral practice of planting pears on the
thorn, there are some varieties that
succeed SO we'll when engrafted on the
thorn, even if four, five or six feet
above the ground, that whenever we
pass mans land whereon the thorn
is growing naturally and abundantly,
we feeLlike stopping and advising him
to convert every wild thorn scrub tree
into one producing annually delicious
pears. In thrifty, strong thorn trees,
standing even as they often do in
thickets, the insertion of one, two or
three pear gratis in each tree, would,
i'll from two or four years, convert a
waste and useless shrub into aproduc-
tive pear tree.
1t is not every variety, however,
that will succeed well on the thorn,
but the following we lave tested, and
they can be relied upon as uniting and
growing well, and at the same time
producing fruit good enough for any
ihan to eat. The list embraces White
Doyenne, Doyenpe Sieul, Jalusie de
Fontenay Vendee, Kirkland. and Jo-
sephine de Malines, the latter one of
the very best of winter pears.-Jour.

SPRING TOKENS.
By ENNA ALICE BRowr.

i feel the pulse OF the beating rains
hear the sprouting of quickened grasses
A new life leaps in my languid veiLs,
And my soul. like q Sybarite. lies and drains
The VIM of each yernal wind that passes.
Last night heard, from the wooded hill.
The muffied drum of the pheasants beating;
And the tremulous wall of the whip -poor-win,
Like far-of fife note. wild and shrili.
In the van of the winters slow refreating.
Tonight saw through the balmy dark
That wrapt like mantle the dewy meadows
The gloW-worm nursing her ftful spark,
And the drifting ire-hy's jeweled bark
Strand on purple shoal of shadows.
The brimming urns of the silver showers,
By light winds shaken. run over and sprinkle
The dimpling hollows with rosy flowers,
And the dancing feet of the joyous hours
Trip to the wild brooks sylvan tinkle-
Yonder the biushing twilight breaks
From the morning trailing her dim stars after;
A faint sigh rufiies the dreaming lakes,
And the first sweet note OF the cuckoo wakes
The budding woodlands to breezy laughter

Plant Something. s

To all, we wonld say, plant some
thing, PLANT SOMETHING! What p
Anything If it be only slip of will
low, it will grow to remind you that
all can do some good if it be only
cabbage seed, it may grow to feed
hungry child or to cure a sick one
Plant something, if not in your own
garden, then in your neighbor's, only
be careful to plant no weeds nor
thorns there.
Plant something something to
watch and care for day by day, thro'
the bright array of summer mornings
in store for you. Plant a tree in which
a bird will hereafter build. and keep
watch over your garden, that the in
sects do not destroy it. while he will
warble his thanks to you as you rest
beneath the grateful shade of your
own creating.
Plant somethingi A rose bush from
which it may be you will gather flow
ers 10 cheer the sick couch or the hap
py bridal OF those near aud dear to
you. A grape vine from which lus-
cious cluster of grapes may cool your
own fevered tongue and bring you
back to health. a strawberry that
may send out its runners and give its
fruit to thousands. A flower that dali
ly growing and coming to the perfec-
ton of its beauty, may lead hundreds
to think, How wonderful are Thy
works, o Lord God Almighty. in wis
dom hast Thou made them all.
Plant something! Even potato, a
beet, or clover seed. It will bring
its reward thousand fold, and will,
as Iona as at lasts, perpetualIy remind
you that the great things of this life
are achieved by the active and faithful
performance of the little things.
Plant something! reader. If you
plant crop, you have your great
profits and great rewards; but the lit
tie fancy plant near the threshold
around the homestead. like the wild
ow's mite, may, after all, prove the
more valuable contribution to the
great garden that is now about to burst
forth and gladden. us for the coming
season. All, we would again urge to
plant something.-BucyrUs Journal.

We once had a bit of experience
with this pest of the poultry yard,
which might be worth relating for the
benefit of whoever may be troubled
with SO malignant a disorder among
his fowls.
In consequence of our hens rcosting
close under tight floor in the unven-
tilated end of the henery, and about
four feet above their excremente, they
were compelled to inhale the eYapora-
ting ammonia and noxious gases,
which settling about their heads Eve
were then ignorant of the necessity of
ventilation and dedorization), soon
caused the worst symptoms of roup or
rattles, such as difficult breathing, in
famed throats, and the heads of some
swollen to blindness. terminating fa-
tally in most cases, within week or
ten days.
Numerous known remedies and
some unknown ones were tried with
out curative effect or staying the raw
ages of the disease in the least. Re-
fecting upon the causes, we resorted
to better ventilation, and removed
most of the roosts to an airy place in
another part of the building, with no
more favorable results. The fowls
would persist in dropping off in spite
of all we could do, and it looked as if
our fine stock of laying pullets were
bound to cheat US out of their services
entirely.
Finally, we went iE on the " kill on
cure plan, took four gone cases." as
we supposed, to experiment with, and
placing them in a tight box, treated
them, for few moments, to the dense
fumes of burning birthstone, closely
watching the effect, and as no change
for the worse could be seen, repeated
the dose twice day, till all but one
fully recovered; in the meantime fu-
migating our whole flock once day
when upon the roosts, nearly to suffo-
cation, with most gratifying results.
No more new cases appeared, and all
but one of dozen affected fowls were
cured, and the infection completely
eradicated in less than q fortnight
Since then, whenever we discover the
ominous symptoms in our flock, fu-
migation or two of birthstone suffices
as perfect antidote. With his rem
edy at hand we have no fears of the
malady, for we feel confidentit can be
smoked out every time.-W. III. T.

Shall He be /. Farmer

We say yes. He should for many
reasons. Some must be farmers and
producers. There are too many non-
producers now. Farming is a healthy
pursuit. 1t is pleasant one, with few
exceptions. Ittends to long life. He
is almost sure of living, and has a
good chance, provided he has sufficient
capital, to secure comfortable tor
tune. We believe there is no business
pays better on the amount of capital
invested. Many think that those who
are not fit for business will do for far
mers, and if they have not capital suf-
ficient to give them good start in
trade, they had better go to farming.
This is all wrong. Talent can be used
to good advantage on the farm as well
as in the counting-room capital can
also be profitably be employed there.
Let young men who. are looking
about to see what they can do for
living, remember the advantages of a
farmers life, and the uncertainties of
mercantile business-that nine-tenths
of the business men in all the large
cities, fail sometime during their bu-
siness life, and many die poor, leaving
families, possibly, to struggle on in
want. Such thing rarely happens to
q farmer, however small his means.
If one object of the young man be to
make himself useful in the communi-
ty, he will stand much better chance
of making his influence felt in rural
neighborhoed than in a crowded city,
where he might find and be obliged to
compete with those greatly his supe-
riors.
We grant that in farming there is no
chance to gain riches suddenly, and it
is well there is not; it would be far
better if there was not in any direc-
ton, for the desire to become rich at
single stroke has ruined thousands,
while sudden riches have really bene-
fitted few. Young men, ponder well
before you decide to throw away a
certainty on the farm for an uncertain
ty in trade.-Zio7a's Herald.

Breeding Poultrx.

You can breed chickens to just what
color and shape you please. From
their particular mode of reproduction,
effects in color, size and form can be
produced with great rapidity. AS an
instance, the writer had some white
Cor rather what is called white) Brah-
ma Pootras; of course they had the
yellow legs, skins and fat, of that class
of fowls. A friend wished to get q
run and a change, for prize Dorking
hen, and we took her to oblige him.
From her size she had evidently some
of the Cochin blood in her, although
strikingiy of Dorking form and with
full Dorking points. By accident,
some of her eggs, whilst she was run
ming with the Brahma Pootra cock,
were Matched, and the produce showed
thorough mixture of blood, but one
of the chickens turned exactly after
the Brahmas, with the exception of
clean white legs, all else was Brahma.
The chick was a hen, and was SO hand
some that she was kept, and put with
the true Brahma strain. Her chickens
were apparently true Brahmas, but
some had white legs. These were so
handsome that they were selected,
bred from, and finally the whole flock
was bred with true Brahmas in every
other respect but with white smooth
legs, white skin, and white fat. They
however produced the dark eggs of
the Brahma.
In three years, by selection, the en-
tire flock were bred all to one color.
and one feather Except the legs and
skin), and handsomer lot of fowls
were never seen. Their beauty of
form, and feather, seemed to intensity,
and they became breed of them
selves. They were good layers, throve
well, produced eggs at from five to six
months old, were very full of feathers,
and stood the frost well were large,
and fattened well, so that the chicks at
six months were so nearly full grown
as to lay on fat all over, and were de-
licious eating. During the last year
they were kept, fifty chickens were
produced from different hens, all so
like each other that they could not be
distinguished apart by strangers. A
change of residence to where fowls
could not be kept, broke up the strain,
but the facts proved by the experience
in raising them are invaluable.-Can-
ada Farmer.
IHE Toad is a great destroyer of
insects, and on this account has been
found very useful in gardens for ex-
terminating the striped bug, squash
bug, flea beetle, sc. It devonrs the
potato bug with great av1dity, and
suffers no Inconvenience from feeding
on this poisonous insect. The toad is
very destructive to bees, and should
be banished from the apiary. A toad
has been noticed sitting for several
hours under hive stand, waiting to
devour any bees that might happen to
fall on the ground.
