Az the second meeting OF
the aAmerican Association for
the cure OF Inebriales," recent
ly held in New York, DR.. Jo-
seph Parish delivered an essay
1.-The result of his long expert
ence in the care of inebriates.
lie divides the latter into three
classes; the first, confirmed in
ebriates, or professional de-
baaehes, whose purposes in
life seem to be limited to the
gratifcatlo n OF appetites or
passions; the second is the
emotional class, who are de-
scribed as persons "withOut de-
cided intention to do wrong,
and without any abiding pur-
pose to do right, and who are
the victims OF their own moral
weakness, or Of the cupidity or
Iecklessness of others;" and
the third are accidental iuebri-
ates-"men OF good principles
and character, vi ho know and
acknowledge their infruity |
and endeavor to overcome il
Students, authors, salesme
and overworked business men
furnish a considerable percent
age of this class" The MAORI
~ of the first class, according
to Dr.; Parish, are incurable,
and he recommends that such
persons be detained in special
hospitals. OF this class DR.. Z.
has had eighty-four under his
care, twenty-four of whom i'm ,
proved so as to be capable of
partially attending to business;
seven were radically cured,
and two became insane. OF
the second class, the doctor has
had Seventy-two patients, OF
whom forty-two were SO i'm
proved as to attend most Of
their time TO their affairs, and
twenty-one were cured of their
infrmity. lie has had in
charge, of the third class, six l
ty-slx persons, forty-seven of 6
whom were entirely cured, and I
sixteen of whom are nearly so. i

How Nature Prunes Trees.

We NAV take q lesson from the man.
ner in which nature does her pruning.
Take a young tree, pine for instance,
which has number of small laterals.
As. the tree, grows upward, and the
trunk cnlarges, the sap has tendency
to pass on to the upper portion. These
laterals begin to lose their vitality and
at length die out and fall to the ground.
In the old tree there is not even trace
left Of the primary branches. Very
different is the effect when by artificial
means a vigorous, healthy limb is
Topped off. The equilibrium between
root and branches is suddenly destroy
ed, and the tree receives q shock to its
system which impairs its vitality to
sonic extent. But i'm all our cultiva-
ton Of trees and plants, whether for
ornament or fruit, We find it better to
sacrifice somewhat the health Of the
plant for some other advantage to be
gained. We prune our fruit trees and
grapevines to keep them within bounds
and give them shape better to resist
the effects of sun and winds, and also
by reducing the amount of woody
growth to obtain better fruit. The
chief end of cultivation is the fruit of
the tree, not its longevity. If the tree
cannot furnish the fruit, it would not
be worth the cultivation at all. The
true end of pruning, therefore, is to do
just so much of it. and no more, as
will give the best results of fruiting
with the least injury 70, the plant.
This must be ascertained by practical
observation and experience.

Multuln in Parvo.

The following eleven paragraphs
from an old horticultural publication
are worthy Of place among the most
valued rules that should govern q well
regulated home =
1. When fruit trees occupy ground
nothing else should-except very short
grass.
2. Fruitfulness and growth Of the
tree cannot be expected the same year.
3. There is no plum that the curculio
will not take, though any kind may
sometimes escape for one year in one
place.
4. Pear blight still puzzles the great
est men. The best remedy known is
to plant two for every one that dies.
S. If you don't know how to prune,
don't hire man from the other side of
the sea, who knows less than you do.
6. Don't cut off big lower limb un-
less you are a renter and don't care
what becomes Of it when your time is
out.
z. A tree with the limbs coming out
near the ground is worth two trees
trimmed up five feet, and so on until
they are not worth anything.
8. Trim down, not up.
.. Shorten in. not lengthen up.
10. If you had your arm cut off, you
would feel it at your heart-a tree will
NOT feel, but rot at the heart.
ii. When anybody tells you of a
gardener that understands all about
horticulture and agriculture, and that
can be hired, don't believe word Of
it, for there are no such to be hired.
Such man can make more than you
can afford to give him, and if he has
sense enough to understand the bust
ness, he will also have enough to know
this

Let me urge upon my brother farm
ers to put in a patch of sunflowers.
The yield is about equal to corn, and
they require about the same attention,
as food for poultry and hogs far ex-
ceeding corn. A little occasionally
mixed with horse feed gives fine coat.

prairie, will be pleased to see goOdly

soon as the frost is out Of the ground
and when it comes times to plant the

Removing Buds Of Grape Vines.

A graphist of extensive experience
writes: l would mention fact which
has come within my observation and
experience, which, If true, is Of some
importance. 1t is this: That the third
fruit-bud from the base of the last
years cane throws out larger and bet
ter developed punches of grapes than
either the first or second. The grapes
from these buds seem also better IA
vored, and generally superior to those
on the first and second. In accordance
with this hint. we have adopted the
plan of cutting the cane at such length
as to leave the third bud generally, and
sometimes the fourth, when a strong
one, and then rubbing off the first and
second buds, and leaving the third and
fourth for fruit. The number of fruit
buds left on the vine must depend on
the age and strength Of the vine. If
the vines are strong and vigorous at
three years, from two to three punches
Ofgrspes may be allowed to mature ON
each without injury.

News from Mexico is not at all re-
assuring to those who wish well tn
that distracted Republic. The revo-
lution is fast spreading, and the peo-
pie are paralyzed. President Juarez,
III Il speech to Congress, correctly
states the case when lie says that the
country is consuming itself in fruit
less struggle of military against legal
power. The fact is, there are too
many military chieftains in Mexico,
and the natural business of these idle
men-who are just above the level of
bandits-is to plot eonspiracies and
lead revolutions. The tone of the
Presidents speech is less confident
than we might have expected from
him under circumstances not specially
perilOus.

EXCITING SCENEs.-St. Stephens
(Roman Catholic) church In New
York, which is so famous for its superb
music, was the scene of a disagreeahle
disturbance on Sunday last. just as
the congregation were engaged in the
most solemn portion of the mass, an
unearthly yell was heard, and the
congregation turning round saw a
man, respectfully dressed, writhing i'll
apparent agony in the central aisle.
He was bowling maniac. From his
lips came the most dreadful cries and
,oaths. He danced and swung his arms
around his head and tore his hair.
The services were of course suspended,
and the man was forced from the
church. He was sent to the hospital
as lunatic.
A still more serious disturbance took
place at the Roman Catholic church.
rear the corner of Thompson and Canal
streets, on Christmas morning. Just
as the priest was about pronouncing
the benedietion a drunken maniac
named Ellis staggered up the aisle.
and in a loud and abusive way de-
nounced the priest and congregation.
and when ordered out by the sexton
dared any one to try and put him out.
In an instant twenty men sprang from
their seats and made for Eliis. Con-
fusion and CONSERVATION Eeigned,
Some of the women screamed, while
Others tainted. Ellis backed I'D
against a pew, and drawing a knife
dared them to come on. A man
named Knapp then advanced upon
Ellis, and he plunged his knife into

NEWSPAPER LAws.-The following
synopsis of the newspaper laws, will
be found interesting by those who re-
eeive papers by mail:
/. A Postmaster is required to give
notice by letter (returning II paper
does not answer the law when sub
scriber does not take his paper out OF
the Office, and state the reasons for It's
not being taken; and a neglect to do
so makes the Postmaster responsible
to the publishers for the payment,
2. Any person who takes a paper
from the Post-office, whether directed
to his name or another, or whether he
has subscribed or not, is responsible
for the pay.
3. If person orders his paper dis
continued, he must pay all arrearages
or the publisher may continue to send
it until the payment is made.
4. If the subscriber orders his paper
to be stopped at certain time, and
the publisher continues to send it, the
subscriber is bound to pay for it if he
takes it from the post-otfice. The law
proceeds upon the ground that man
must pay for what he uses.
5. The courts have decided that re-
fusing to take newspapers and periodi-
Gals from the postoffice, or removing
and leaving them uncalled for, is
prima facie evidence of Intentional
fraud.
