Trimming Orchards.


All along from now Auntil the sap
begins to- f1ow freely, farmers viii
find days of leisure, when the wealth
er is not too severe for outdoor labor,
that they can use to advantage in
trimming their orchards. This is a
kind of labor that it is very unsafe to
delegate to ignorant, careless hands.
1t is also kind of labor that should
never be done in a hurry. We never
like to cut living branch from tree
without due elaboration. We want
to see some good and sufficient
reason for removing limb before
applying the pruning knife.
In the first place we remove with
out much hesitation, those sap-sprouts
of one years growth, that generally
fill, pretty thickly, the main
ranches, and if allowed to grow
would soon make the top of the tree
an almost impenetrabIe thicket. Ex-
-ception when a sprout is grow
ing in direction to fill vacant
space, where limb is needed to give
a symmetry to the head. Exception
2:-When sprout can be used ad-
vantageously to take the place of a
defective limb, which ought to be re-
moved
2. We never remove a large limb
when the same can be reached as
we well By removing several smaller
ones. 1t is severe tax on the vitali-
ty of fruit tree to cut off a large
limb. 1t often results in the gradual
decay of the tree. We have fire.
quently traced a strip of dead wood
from a large pruned limb down to
the ground.
No implement is equal to fine
toothed, stiff back saw for cutting off
large limbs, and then great care
should be exercised to prevent the
stump splitting down under side, be-
fore it is cut through, thus infiicting
a bad-sometimes fatal wound. To
avoid such mishap, we usually saw
up from the underside about one
fourth the diameter of the limb, and
then saw it off from above. The saw
should be sharp, that the end of the
stump may be left smooth. For. re-
moving sprouts and small branches,
strong pruning knife, sharp, light
hatchet, or the best pruning shears
are coyenient- q ~ 3 49, -
We seldom see an orchard in which
the trees have open heads. Branches
are every year enlarging and extend
ing, thus thickening up the heads.
These small laterals should be
thinned out, annually, until the head
appears open enough to freely admit
the sunlight. All of the operations
require time-time to study the tree,
and perform all the incisions in a
wOrkmanlike manner. Therefore do
not wait until the multifarous labors
of spring press upon you, but work
at trimming your orchards whenever
the weather will permit.-Rural

EVERLASTING FENCE PoSTs.-"I
discovered many years ago that wood
could be made TO last longer than iron
in the ground, but thought the pro-
cess so simple and inexpensive that it
was not worth while making any stir
about it. l would as soon have pop
lar, or Eastwood or quaking ash as
any other kinds of timber for fence
posts. l have taken out Eastwood
posts after having been set seven
years, that were as sound when taken
up as when first put in the ground.
Time and weather seemed to have
no effect on them. The posts can be
prepared for less than two cents
apiece.
For the benefit of others, I will
give the recipe: Take boiled linseed
oil and stir it in pulverized charcoal
to the consistency of paint. Put a
coat of this ever the timber, and
there is not a man that will live to
see it rotten. Cor. Western Rural.

How to Feed Horses.
The following concise suggestions

The following concise suggestions
with regard to the food of horses are
from 1.-THE London Horse Book :"
All horses must not be fed in the
same proportions, without regard to
| their ages, their constitutions and
work the improperly of such a
/ practice is self evident.
Never use bad hay on account of
its cheapness, because there is no
proper nourishment in it.
Damaged corn is exceedingly iniu-
riOus, because it brings on infiama-
ton of the bowels, and skin diseases.
Chaff is better for old horses than
hay, because they can chew and di-
| gest it better.
Mix chaff with corn or beans, and
do not give the latter alone, because
| it makes the horse chew his food
more and digest it better.
Hay or grass alone will not sup
port horse under hard work, because
there is not sufficient nutritive body
in either.
When a horse is worked hard its
food should be chiefly Oats-if not
hOIhGu IluIu It's IOOu SuOulu OC CIllellN
hay-because oats supply more nour-
ishment and fiesh-making material
than any other kind of food ; hay
not so much.
For saddle or coach horses, half q
peck of sound oats and eighteen
pounds of good hay are sufficient
If the hay is not good, add a quarter
OF a peck more oats. A horse which
works harder may have rather more
of each; one that works little should
have less.
Rack feeding is wasteful. The bet
ter plan is to iced with chopped hay
from a manger, because the food is
not then thrown about, and is more
easily chewed and digested.
Sprinkle the hay with water that
has salt dissolved in it, because it is
pleasing to the taste, and more easily
digested. A teaspoonful of salt in a
bucket of water is sufficient.
Oats should be bruised for an old
horse, but not for a young one, be-
cause the former, through age and
defective teeth, cannot chew them
properly. The young horse can do
SO, and they are thus properly mixed
with saliva, and turned into whole
