Care ofYoun.g Fruit Trees.

Young fruit trees for the first two or
three years after transplanting, should,
before hard winter sets in, be protected
against any undue quantity of water,
especially in low situations. This can
be done best by making small hillock
of dirt around the stems, sufficient to
throw off the water and not let it settle
about the roots. We have known
young trees to be killed by constant
immersion in water through most of
the winter, and have frequently known
them to be stunted, from which many
of them never recovered. On the
other hand, in summer these trees
should have the soil slightly bowled
out around them, In order that they
may have a more abundant supply OF
water than they would otherwise OBJ
tain. If we expect to be successful in
fruit raising we must adopt all the
means attainable to insure it, Ger

Stick to the Broomstick.

Did you ever see a woman throw a
stone at hen? 1t is one of the most
ludierous scenes in everyday life. We
recently observed the process-indeed,
we paid more attention than the hen
did, for she did not mind it all, but
laid an egg the next. day as if nothing
had happened. In fact, this hen will
now know for the first time that she
served in the capacity of a target. The
predatory fowl had invaded the pre-
cincts of the fower-bed, and was indus
triously pecking and scratching, bliss
fully unconscious of impending danger.
The lady now appears upon the scene
with a broom. This she drops and
picks up rocky fragment of the Silu-
rian age, and then makes her first mis-
take-they all do it-of seizing the
projectile with the wrong hand. Then,
with malice and forethought, she
makes the further blunder of swinging
her arms perpendicularly instead OF
Observation-Disclosures the stone flies
into the air, describing an irregular ell
liptieal curve, and strikes the surface
of the earth as far from the hen as the
thrower stood at the time, in course
due west from the same. At the sec
ond attempt the ssone narrowly missed
the head of the thrower herself, who,
seeing any further attempt of the kind
would be suicidal, did what she might
have done at first, started after the hen
with an old and familiar weapon. The
moral of which is: "Stick to the
broomstick. .p-[ ProU. Herald.

Farmes.s BOYS.

An intelligent and thrifty farmer
tells in a few words how he had kept
his boys at home and made farm life
not only endurable but attractive to the
youngsters. The lesson is well worth
needing. He says: "But for the CO.
operation of my boys 1 should have
failed. The eldest is nearly twenty
one, and other boys in the neighbor-
hood, younger, have left their parents
mine have stuck TO me when most
needed their services. 1 attribute this
result to the fact that 1 have tried to
make home pleasant for them. I have
furnished them with attractive and
useful reading; and when night comes,
and the days work is ended, instead
fof running with other boys to the rail-
road station and adjoining towns, they
gather around the great lam s.and be-
come interested in their books and
papers," 9s5

The Fan Wheat Crop.

Considerable anxiety exists regard
ing the wheat product over large ex-
tent of country. Whoever has read
our record of the season" department
must have been struck with the great
number of unfavorable reports, not on
ly from many counties in this State
but from nearly all of the States of the
Northwest. In some localities a good
field of wheat is hardly to be found, in
others only the drilled fields give
promise of a fair crop, while in a few
the whole breadth is favorably report
ed. 1t is not unfrequently the case, we
are aware, that a crop turns out much
better than the people expected, but we
think we are safe in saying, from all
reports we get, that there will be a
great falling off in the fall wheat crop
of the Northwest, and even as far south
as Missouri. Our latest foreign advices
are to the effect that, Russia excepted,
the old stock of wheat is pretty well
exhausted, while the season for spring
grains abroad is unfavorable, though
hardly as late as with us. From Cali
fornia, however, comes more favorable
news. A greater breadth was sown
than ever before, while its appearance
is excellent. 1t is estimated that the
increase of the quantity for export will
be from six to ten millions of bushels.
If this proves to be the cese it will
largely make up for the deficiency else
where. Nevertheless we look for a
firm wheat market throughout the
year and until the harvest of 1873 at
least, unless this country should be SC
unfortunate as to become involved in a
war with Great Britain, an event, how.
ever, that seems most improbable at
the present time.-PrairieF Farmer.

The New York correspondent of the
Rochester Democrat says:

The New York correspondent of the
Rochester Democrat says:
Considering him as man of family
and also of wealth, Mr.. Greeley's life
has in no small degree been homeless.
When he lived at Turtle Bay (Fortieth
street, he was three miles from his place
of business, without the present facili-
ties for travel. That was 20 years ago,
when he was 1.-THE and active, and he
did contrive to spend part of the time
with his family; but life at Chappaqua
is a very different affair. The family
are grown up, and none of them care
to be buried in such a dull spot, and
Mr.. Greeley has little time to throw
away on country life. Chappaqua is an
Insignificant village, and Greeley's
farm would be equally insignificant
were it not for his name. 1t may be
considered an illustration of farming
out of pocket in a very successful man
ner, for Greeley has spent thousands of
dollars here, with little return, either
present or prospective. The place is in
the hands of suitable werkmen, and
Mr.. Greeley occasionally passes Sab
bath there. There is, however, little to
interest him, and having looked around
and couver5ed with his tenants, he pays
the bills and comes back to the city,"

The past is gone, and no eloquenee
can recall 1.-THE future is not come
and no assurance can guarantee it.
Those letters only are good, which
contain only the natural effusions of
the heart, expressed in unaffected IAN

praise of any human effort gets up a
liar. Perfection is God 8 alone.
