Why Iris7neIa should be Democrats

Editor FrcCmaH-Tt has often been a matter
OF pretended surprise to the Radical press and
people why IrishIEcn 5 n rule enroll themselves
under the Democratic flag and spurn almost in
stinctiveiy that OF the Republican party as a
thing to be dreaded. The reason is quite ObVi-
Gus. In ireland we arc accustomed TO the most
cruel and accursed form Of government that
ever blighted nation. Thrce-fourths OF us
who leave Ireland do so in orderatO escape its
oppressive laws and to breathe to the full free
dOm'S air. When we come to settle down and
become citizens of this republic, tand as rule
we do become citiZenS,) we naturally ask which
party has done and is inclined to DO the most
for our element. We thereupou take retire.
spective view, and find that about thirty years
Known othing party, and we also find that this
same party was nothing more nor less than the
to certain extent il not fully, imbucd with
the same vindietive spirit towards race our
mated in those dark days of persecution when
churches were burned and our priests and
religeuSe maltfeated.
Let US take a casual glance at the present cor
rupt administration and what do we find? We
citizens inCarcerated i'll English dungeons for
IcOTGs spoken in this country against British mis-
government, and not word uttered ef-
fort made by Radical President, Senator or
Representative to have them released. Besides
this, we see ourselves caricaJured and Insultcd
Radical press, and we even see in some Of the
.deown east papers the old English cant of
''No Irish need apply!"
On the other hand, we find the Democratic
party, with but few notable exceptions, stand
ing by and defending against The muIig
nGnt attacks Of il corrupt and bigoted party.
1t would occupy TOO much space-lnOre per
llaps than you would care to give-to go fully
into this matter at present. Suffice it to say,
that il is not only the duty but the interest of
Irishmen to vote ali occasions the Demo-
cratic tickot. In voting for Republicans we
vote for corrupt, centralising, lrish-hating,
arlstocratlc, one-ihan- power party In voting
. the Democratic ticKet we vote for equal rights
and equal laws-for party that will see justice
done to the working mana party that viii re-
spect and acknowledge the services rendered by
our race TO this country every occasion
when liberty was in danger.
For the present then viii conclude by hoping
that the coming fall will see all arTayed under
the good Old Democratic banner, where may our
united efforts aid in giving the final death blow

Pruning.

By careful observation upon my own
former practices and that of others, l
NAfnlly satisfied that no pruning at all
were Infinitely better than the present
general practice. The practice of indis-
criminate looping off of limbs, large
and small, is the cause of disease and a
weakening of the constitution Of the
tree, which in numberless cases leads to
premature death. long since became
suspicious of the practice and abandon
ed it altogether, as found in nine cases
out of every ten, where branch of con-
siderable size had been taken of it would
leave rotten spot in the tree. In a
great many varieties of the apple tree
where any incision is made in the tree,
there is q liability to. decay and rot. The
tree may and perhaps in most cases will
heal over this, but diseased spotis left
in the tree and hence to that extent is
left in an unhealthy state. And the
more these spots are multiplied the more
is the tree weakened and diseased. And
it seems to me that healing over these
rotten spots in fruit-tree is much the
same as healing over an old sore in a
person or animal without first efectually
removing the virus.-Cor., Ger. Tele-

Rules for Milking.

An agricultural, exchange thinks that
FIVE per cent and perhaps ten, could be
added to the milk product of the cows
Of the country, if these rules were OBJ
served:
Never hurry cows in driving to and
from the pasture.
Milk nearly at equal intervals at half
past FIVE in the morning and six at night
are good hours. 7.
Be especially tender of the cow al
milking time. .
when seated, draw the milk as rapid
iyvas possible, being certain to always
getit all.
Never talk or think of anything be-
sides what you are doing when milking.
Offer some caress, and always sooth-
ing word when you approach a COW and
when you leave her.

For swine.

While all other domestic animals are
regularly supplied with salt, the hog is
generally neglected. He requires, how
ever. to be as constantly supplied as the
OK, the horse, or the sheep, and suffers
as much from privation as either of the
above named animals do. His food is
almost invariably given TO him in a fresh
unseasoned state, and to this fact we
may doubtless attribute many of the
violent and fatal diseases to which he is
subject, and which are proof against all
remedies, however promptly ano skill.

regularly seasoned. there should be a
trough or box in every sty,in which salt
may be deposited regularly for the use
of the animals. Seasoning the food OF
the hog as mentioned above, ,et it be
understood that salt only is here alluded
to, for, if any person should try season
ing with pepper, they will make a great
mistake; for as much pepper as will suf-
fee for q mans dinner will kill a hog.

The SPIRIT OF DEMOCRACY.
Training Tomato vines.

In twelve years testing and observa.
ton, have arrived at the conclusion
that the common treatment given to the
taslato issdetrinental to its growth, fla
vor, andnourishing principles,a and that
there are advantages in training up the
stalk and looping oil the superauous
branches. The three rules to follow in
the cultivation Of the tomato are:
l. Secure the seed of fruit acclimated
to the section where it is to be grown.
2. Free use of liquid manure during
the season.
3. Lopping off the superfuous bran
ches, and training the stock of the plant
over trellises. and up to the sides Of
fences and houses, to its full length and
capacity.
The tomato is too sensitive for the
planFgrown in northern latitude to
sueceed south at the first trial, or for the
seed cf the south to flourish in the north,
until it is acclimated. Acclimation is
essential before pronouncing judgment
on its merits Select the smoothest,
roundest and heaviest, adapted for table
consumption, during its natural season,
and medium size, grown and adapted
expressly for canning purposes. Secure
the plant that is adapted to your climate
and wants; keep that seed pure, and
study to acclimate it to the section and
soil, and improve its size, color, and fla
vor each year. Then you will never
leave home for good tomato.
To prepare the ground, mix with the
soil equal parts of hen, chip and sand
manure. Heap the dirt in hills not less
than two feet high; at the base and
around these hills set the strongest and
stoutest plants. Then apply soap p-suds,
aish-water, ETC., over. the hill and let it
ruu dewn;and feed the plant during the
season. Draw the earth from this hill
around the glowing plants every two
weeks, Spreading tile same about over
the roots until the elevated earth is con
sumed in feeding the wants of the vine.
1t is interesting and important to train
and cut away the surplus unbearing
limbs from the first to the last spreading
branch /, a young shoot spring from the
crotch; this infant sprig must be plucked
out on all occasions. On the side of the
main stalk the flower stem shoots ont
these bear the blossom and fruit Near
these q very heavy and large branch
grows, as large as the original stem, with
big leaves ;.thatis fruitless and burden
some. AL these should be cut off with
sharp knife. SO as to leave the main
stalk and flower stem exposed to light
and air. The blossom branch will often
double its capacity in fruit bearing The
/: surplus should be reduced so that the
remainder will come to early and per-
feet maturity The vine will commence
bearing at about twelve inches from the
ground, and under this treatment con.
tinue to bear fruit at every twelve and
fifteen inches, to the extreme end of the
