Planting frees, Etc.

IN exchange whose name We have
forgotten, verv sensibly says:
In the first place do not plant on
heavy, wet, undrained soils. IF the
planter can exercise any control over
the digging of the trees, it will pay TO
take considerable pains in digging, so as
to preserve as many Of the roots intact as
possible. Commence digging some little
distance from the tree, dig down under
the roots, swaying the tree gently, so as
to see when it is loose, and then lift it
with care, and shake the dirt from the
roots.
After the tree is dug, look over the
roots carefully, and if any large sized
ones have been bruised with the spade,
cut them off smoothly where the bark is
sound, otherwise they will rot back. In
setting, give the roots ample room, and
fill In among them with fine, rich dirt
but no crude manure. If manure is
requisite, apply IL on the surface, and
throw up a mound around the base OF
the tree, TO prevent It's swaying too much
in the wind.
After the tree in its place, cut back
the top somewhat in proportion to the
loss Of roots-if the branches are too
thick, thin out a portion of them, and
head back the remainder in such way
as TO leave a symetrical head for the tree
to begin with.
In planting canes, such as raspberries,
blaekberries, grape vines, currants, ETC.,
cut them down nearly to the surface, and
throw a forkful of coarse manure over
every plant.

the Swiss Times, had passed the latter
part Of the summer in shooting on the
estate Of one of his uncles, and had Sc

Mr.. &. went 10 see his mistress. The
keeper, warned beforehand, was on the

His wife heard him, and said to Mr.. Z. ::

FEEDING THE COW.

Slowly along the shaded lane,
Cropping the grass from side to side,
Here comes the pretty brindls COW,
Home at eventide.
She stops at the garden gate and calls
" run little boy and bring to me
Some of those apples round and ripe,
see lying nnder the tree"
Little golden head his apron fills
With theruddy apples juicy and sweet
Brindle loves to take with her long rough tongue
From his dimpled hand and eat.
Tiptoe he stands with eager face,
Holding his bullying apron tight,
As she gen tly takes the apple he gives,
He laughs with fresh delight
And now she has eaten the very last,
And 'Just one MORE" and Zone little one
more;'
Then he waits and watches her as sha walks
Through the open barn-yard door.
1t was years ago-yet often see,
When tho Summers day is nearly done,
Ny baby boy feeding the pretty COW
In the light of the setting sun.

Bradley's Patent Enamel Paint which ] pur-
chased from you, used inside and outside, both
at my dwelling and store, for two years. 1t gives

fully up to your recommendations in facility OF

TO THE PUBLIC 1t affords me much pleasure
to state that in July, 1871, Front Street Theatre
was painted inside and out with Bradley's Pat
emf Enamel paint, for which P. Knight, No.
SO West Lombard street, is agent, and to testify
to It's superiority over any and all other paints
for similar uses. In no private dwelling can
paint possibly be subjected to the very severe
test it undergoes at this establishment, where,
during our daily cleaning, soap and soda are
constantly applied to it, and yet it appears as
sound and fresh as when first put on. Of the
numerous advantages it possesses over other
paints will mention its being mixed and ready
for use in quantities to suit purchasers, its quick
ly drying properties, which saves much time in
the execution of work where paint is needed,
and its very perceptible renacity, which imparts
beauty and durability to the objects on which ii
is used. AS such I most earnestly recommend
it to the merchants and tradesman of our city
believing that it will give them greater satisfac
ton than they can possibly anticipate.

A REVOLUTION IN HOUSE PAINTING CATH
olic Mirror says: The advertisement of the New
Jersey Enamel Paint Company has been some
time in our columns, and it may seem strange
that it is only o-day call special attention to
it. Our reason for this is that we do not like
recommending thing unless we know it is good.
We are pleased to find that the agent, Mr.. G. P.
Knight, was of our way of thinking, and wished
above all that the paint should be tested so that
the editor could give his conscientious opinion
of its merits. Having had this test made in our
own household we have no hesitaucy in saying
that the Enamel Paint comes up fully to all that
is claimed for it, In the country especially, where
it is difficult to procure the necessary ingredient
for mixing paint and skillful workmen to apply
it, the Enamel Paint will prove invaluable, as it
is already prepared, and can be applied by any
one possessing ordinary judgment. For plain
work in private dwellings, churches and school
houses, it will prove very economical as we'll as
beautiful. One gallon Of this paint will cover
twenty square yards, giving two coats. Our
friends may safely give it trial without fear of
disappointment.
