Work for Jane.

The great work is the fight with weeds. Rake
and hoe must be kept persistently going, and the
enemy attacked even before he is in sight. Con-
tinual raking with sharp toothed rake destroys
the weeds ~ they terminate and keeps the ground
clean and mellow. If the garden or truck patch
is 80 arranged that the vegetables can be planted
in rows and tended with horse cultivator, much
labor would lie saved.
asparagus should not be cut too closely. Allow
a good growth of stalks, and when done cutting,
apply some good manure and fork it in. Beans
may still be put in. Beets-Thin and keep clean.

To Prevent Graprs Dreppi..,

A correspondent of the Country Gentleman says
that in order to prevent the dropping of of
grapes, it is only necessary to make a circular in
cision on the wood cutting away a ring of bark
about the breadth of twelfth of an inch The
wood acquires greater size abont the incision. and
the incision and the operation accelerate matu-
rity of the wood and that of the fruit likewise.
The incision should not he made too deep. nor
further than the bark, lest it spoil both wood
and fruit.
This is the old practice of grtling vines re-
vived. Ever SINCE the Agricultural Society of
France, in l745, awarded Col: Buchatt premium
for his supposed discovery of haseening the rper-
ing of grapes by girdling the vine, wiseacres
in grape culture have frequently made wonder
full discoveries in the same line. Sometimes they
are going to prevent mldew by giIdling them,
again it is to increase the size and quality, or as
noted above, prevent the falling off of the fruit.
Gir,lling branch in the summer after the fruit
is set simply prevents return of sap from the
leaves to the root, and of course causes the her
ries to enlarge or, in other Words to become drop
steal. Tie fasslity is not improved, rs has been
shown by hundreds of experiments. The branch
of course mnst be girlled below the fruit to pro-
duce the desired result.

I see. of late, much 10 being said shout the APP
pie Moth and Apple worm-their depredations;
aud the prrvsnfives. A few Obears atoms snd
experiments may not he amiss though made ont
of the usual channel Some years ago my broth
ther and myself spent s0me tine and pains in
learning the habits Of many Of the insects that
are destructive TO the farmers labor; and among
thesc were the common cut worm and the spple
worm, with this result.
The cut worm can be easily destroyed by light
say one fire to four seses; this done Tor ten days,
1t the right time, for . few ysan, would efec-
tuslly destroy them. Just At night, before the
dew gets heavy, 10 the time they fy about in

skin Of the growing apple, to deposit the egg
which will sOOn hatche and make wsRmy fruit,
rs all Western farmers know to be almost univer-
sal this year. By lighting bright fires in the
chard near the trees that first mature, the fly
will be attracted to the light and be destroyed,
and thereby save the fruit from this very des-
tructive enemy.
q plan If it succeeds, and any one can test the
thing for himself in the following manner: Take
half dozen common cut worms put them in
glass Jar half full of loose moist earth keep it So
in a suitable place where light and air album
dant cover SO as to prevent escape, feed with
plantain and lettuce, or any tender plant, every
evening, and plentifully, and then watch the
suit carefully aud the whole can be learned
in practical manner, if you do not forget to
exercise patience. The same must he done with
an apple that has worm in it, the earth in the
jar being kept warm and moist, to prevent the
apple from whitening, and placing small twig
in, for the worm to come ont upon.
When the fly or miller Of any insect is TINS
identified, it will be recognized in the field and
orchard, and its habits soon learned; that once

TEACH BIossoMs.-There is something quite
remarkable in the fact that when there has beer
such widespread destruction among the ever.
greens and other plants, there should be full bloe
SOU on the peach trees. We have peach trees
aocue u in .vaEiess localities, high and low,
which have thrown nut scarcely dozen blossoms
for dozen years past. This season, in all posi-
tions, they were full Of blossoms! How by con
Irariss things seem to wOork. In the Middle and
Southern States, we learn that there was a very
light blossom on the peach trees: in many Sec
lions none at all. While upin these "hyperborean y
regions they have been ontvieing each other in
putting on their rich and beautiful ornaments.

Seaggers.

The usnal forms of staggers which occur among
the horses in this part of the country are stomach
sfaggers and sleepy stagges; in the first case
the animal is the subject of over distension OF
the stomach, and when urged to move stagger.
like drunken man; in the latter case, the fnnc-
ton Of the stomach is paralyzet, and the animal
is somnolent and sleepy.
The usual exciting cause of sueh affections are
over feeding and want Of proper exercise. yet it
may arise from hard work when the animal is
subject to an over distended stomach
TREATMENT.-Both of the above affections nav
be treated as follows: Give the patient ounces
OF table salt, ounce of ginger, in pint of hot
water. Then dissolve pint If glauber salts in
hot water aud throw into the rectum In n
couple hours the dose may be repeated. The diet
should consist Of sloppy bran mashes, well sea-

DANGER FROM WET CLOTHEs.-Few persons
understand fully the reason why wet clothes ex-
ert such chilling influence. Il is simply this:
Water, when it evapOrates, carries off an enormous
amount of heat in what is called the latent form.
One pound of water in vapor contains as much
heat as nine or ten pounds of liquid water, and
all this heat must, Of course, be taken from the
body. Ifonr clothes are moistened with three
