PoToMAC FRUIT GROWER ASSOCIATION
The monthly meeting Of the Potomac Fruit
Growers Association was held i'll Washington
yesterday, Chalkley Glllngham in the chair
aud F. H. Fusom secretary.
In response to an inquiry from Hollywood,
Va, MIR. Saul stated that it would pay to graft
choke pear trees with other varieties provided
the trees we're young and vigorous, otherwise
not.
After discussion by Mcs$rS. J. II. Gray,
John Sau, ). +. Chamberlain and ). h. King
aud others with reference to the site tul or
chards, it WAS recommended to dig hole three
feet in diameter and sixteen inches deep, al
ways choosing the northern slope SO that the
temperature would be more equal in wiuter,
and so that the trunks OF the trees would be
sheltered f:om the direct rays Of winter sun
in the morning which in itself effects vary
lng Temperatures; never mix manure about the
roots, nor use the puddle but always keep
the roots damp from the time they come out
Of the ground until they are put in again.
Plant whenever the soil is in good condition
and in thorough cultivation. The land should
be ploughed with good team. and then sub
soiied, and, ifpossbIe, cultivated year or two
before the orchard is set. \ good plan is to
drive stake by the stump Of the tee, which
answers the purpose OF Il tap rnoi.
Ii was also given as an auuti"ual reason LOT
subSoillng, that it prevents washing. as the
water is rapidly taken up aud distributed and
further. that in the amount Of lain falling dur
ing one year, there is an equivalent to three
hundred pounds Of Peruvian guano, which, Of
course, goes into the soil, where provision is
made for its reception by cuitivating deep
Mr. King demonstrated that while the wasp,
hornet &c, destroyed fruit having jaws, and
being able to bite through the woody sub stan-
ces, the honey bee could only extract honey
from the bruises made and its legitimate way
as given to it in flowers, and was in reality
friend and assistant to the hortculturist.

Special NOTICES.

@-PERIODIC DISORDERS.-Ihe parox-
ysnal maladies, which are characterized by
heat and cold, prevail extensively at this season
and it is curious fact that in many parts OF the
country where they are prevalent, other diseases;
that bear no general resemblance to fever and
ague, or relnittent fever, assume periodic type
Thus, in many sections infested with chills and
fever, rheumatism, neuralgia, hySterla dlar-
rhGa, &C., sometime become intermittent
thereby indicating that they have been ensend-
cred by the same poisonous exhulations which
produce the first named disease.
In all these mashed cases Of ague-for such
they areas well as in the regular interuttents
the most safe and reliable remedy that can be
administered is Hostetters Stomach Bittcrs.--
Neither quinne nor arsenic are needed. Both
are in the highest degree dangerous, and are
sure to leave Sad traces of their poisonous action
in the system, whether they arrest the parox,
ysms or not In many instances all the so-ealed
specifics of the regular materlu medlca utterly
fail to 'break up' intermittent and remittent
disorders. But he great vegetable Tome never
falls. The spusm OF the minute blood-vessels
which causes the chill, is the result Of nervous
weakness, produced by the facilitating opera
ton OF unwhoesome atmosphere, and the
tone and vigor given to the nervous system by
the Btters enable it to throw of the disease
The wiser policy however, is to anticipate at
tacks OF this nature, by arousing ali the latent
energies OF the body ut the commencement OF
the moist and chilly season, with this lnc"mpar-
able antdoe By pursuing this course inter
inittents, reInitentS, rheumatism, colic bilious
ness, dyspepsia and pulmonary affections may
always be evcntcd. ul 4-vulw
