BURNING TREES n Tue FALL.

on this subject:
The question is often asked us, "Dt
you approve Of transplanting fruit tree:
in the fall?' We say positively, no. moi
In this section of the country. In the
Middle States it will do, but not in q
bleak, cold, snowless country like this.
But we do not approve Of taking up ali
kinds of deciduus trees, INTENDED fol-
Spring planting In the fall and burying
them for the winter, for various reasons.
All half hardy and even the most hearty
are more OF less I'M ured where left stand
In the nursery over winter by the
many sever changes from warm to cold
some times half frozen to death; such
trees taken from the nursery in spring.
and planted, invariably half Of them die
or become sick, while those taken in the
fall, while perfectly sound, and buried,
and planted in the spring, viii every one
grow and make good growth. We
speak from large experience, having
practiced burying trees Of many sorts for
at least twenty years, and the trial in all
cases has proved most satisfactory. 1t is
surprising to US that tree planters are
so slow in adopting this practice; that so
few obtain their trees from the nurseries
in the fall, rather than defer it until
Spring. Certainly there is more time to
make their selection and prepare the
soil for an orchard in the fall and get
the trees ready at the earliest opportu-
nifty to plant them. Do not wait for an
agent to come round, but go or sent to
nursery, get your trees, , years old is the
best age; they cost less, and you get
more roots according to their size. and
they invariably make the best formed
trees for an orchard in this climate, bring
them home, select dry place in the gar
den or the orchard plot, and for the first
the intended mound, lay down and sin
gle out the trees in this cross trench,
Gust the roots) and let the tops lay on
the solid ground then lay on thin stick
or lath, then cover this layer half under
with fine earth; press down and by so DO
ing you will have opened another cross
trench for another variety or bundle.
Lay down in the same manner, fill with
fine earth same as before, and so on I'M
til all are in, then dig a trench all around
the trees and cover so that the roots will
be under about two feet and the tops
six inches; the main point in covering is
to keep the tops from the sun. If the
covering is with clean fine earth and well
packed, so there shall be no air holes.
they are perfectly safe. Take all wee Is
and other rubbish entirely away, so there
can be no danger Of mice getting in, and
your trees will come out as sound as when
Put in. Al dcciduous trees may be
Sreated in the same manner, also grapes,
raspberries, gooseberries, currents, black
berries, &C. l. will be more than pay
the extra labor. for that is your insurance
that every plant you set is sound and
urinjured by the severe changes of
weather during the winter. This is not
my advice alone, but you have it from
every experienced nurseryman and or
chardist in the Western States.
\ correspondent of the Country Gen
ticmdn, writing from Hamilton County,
Ohio, says the system of all good hog
raisers in that region is to pasture the
hogs on clover during the summer. He
presents as the advantage of this plan,
the statement that an acre of ground in
clover, will pasture five hogs four month
and that it will take the corn from half
an acre to feed them at the same time.
The cultivation OF the corn he counts
equal to the other half acre. He claims
that hogs fed on clover are in far better
condition than if fed on corn, as they are
larger framed, healthier, and eat better;
and states that the land is enriched by
the clover pasturlng.
PRESENTATION.
The unpleasant odor prod by per-
SEPARATION is frequently the source OF veX-
alton to persons who are subject to 1T.
Nothing is simpler than to remove this
odor much more effectually than by the
application Of such costly ungent and
perfumes as are in use. 1t is only nece-
ssary to procure some Of the compound
spirits of ammonia, and put about two
tablespoonful Of it in basin Of water.
Washing the face, hands and arms with
this, it leaves the skin as clean, sweet
and fresh as one could wish. The wash
is perfectly harmless, ard very cheap.
1t is recommended on the authority Of an
experienced physician.
The Farmers Herald forcibly says ::
mixed husbandry is needful to realize
tn fuI lnpllt Of profit wIich the farm
properly managed will yield. Every
year the prizes o. farm products varies,
some will nigh, aud some will be low and
thus the farmer catches good prices for Il
part, if not ali; whereas. if he wholly IN
dependent uoon one kind of crop, he may
be wholly disappointed. \ little sold Of
everything makes muckle, and it one
thing does not pay, another will.
