A channel 60 feet wide and Il feet

Lake during the fiscal year. 1t should
be widened to 100 feet to allow vessels
TO pass each other freely. Before this
can be undertaken, in order to keep the

west To do this, the west pier must be
extended lakeward to at least IA feet OF

Grapes and their Culture.

1t is surprising that so many families in
the country are willing to live year after
year without cultivating single grape
vine about their dwellings, They are COM
PEELED to purchase this delicious fruit for
the table or not taste it during the season.
There is common impression that to cul-
tivate grapes perfectly vast amount of
knowledge and taste is required. To many
the simple trimming of a vine is mys-
terry. This is an erroneous view, and ought
not to prevail. Any person of common in
telligence can learn in an hour how to trim
and nourish vines and if instruction can
not be obtained from some experienced
cultivator, there are books filled with cuts
and illustrations which make everything
plain. Three vines of as many varieties,
planted in some sunny nook, or by the side
of some building, so as to obtain shelter,
will, if properly cared for, furnish many
bushel OF delicious grapes every year. Sc
lect Concord, Ives seeding and Herbe-
mont. Make the ground mellow and rich
by the use of spade, and by employing
old manure, finely ground bones and ashes,
and set out the plants. In three years the
rich cluster will appear, and in four years
the product will be abundant. 1t is well
to have vines planted so that the waste
liquors from the dwellings be used in fer
tilization. If there is any food the vine es-
pecially loves, it is the soapy liquors which
accumulate on washing days in families
Vines drenched every week with these
liquids will flourish astonishingly, and ex-
tend themselves so as to cover large build
ings, every branch bearing fruit. We say

Herd of Camels in Nevada.

On ranch on the Carson river, eight
miles below the mouth of Sx-mile Can
yon, and about seventeen miles east of the
city, is to be seen herd Of twenty-six
camels, all but two of which were born and
raised in this State. But two of the old
herd of nine or ten brought here some
years ago are now living. 1t would seem
that the original lot fell into the hands of
Mexicans, who treated them very badly,
overlooking and abusing them. The men
who now have them are Frenchmen, who
had formerly some experience with camels
in Europe. They find no difficulty in rear
ing them, and can now show twenty-four
fine healthy animals, all of Washo growth
The camel may now be said to be thorough
ly acclimated in this State. The owners of
the herd find it no more difficult to breed
and rear them than would be experienced
with the same number of goats or donkeys
The ranch upon which they are kept is san
dy and sterile in the extreme, yet the ami
mails feast and grow fat on such prickly
shrubs and bitter weeds as no other animal
would touch. When left to themselves,
their great delight, after filling themselves
with the coarse heritage of the desert, is to
lie and roll in the hot sand. They are
used in packing salt to the mills on the
river, from the marshes lying in the deserts,
some sixty miles to the eastward. They
have animals that easily pack 100 pounds

Balky Horses,

The Society for the Prevention of Cruel
ty to animals puts forth the following
rules for the treatment of balky horses,
which will bear reproduction:
1. Pat the horse upon the neck ; examine
the harness carefully, first ON one side and
then ON the other, speaking encouragingly
while doing so; then jump into the wag-
on and give the word to go; generally he
will obey.
2. A teamster in Maine says he can start
the worst balky horse by taking him out
of the shafts and making him go around
in narrow circle till he is giddy. If the
first dance of this sort doesn't cure him the
second will.
3. To cure balky horse, simply place
your hand over the horses nose and shut
off his wind until he wants to go, and then
let him go.
4. The brain of horse seems to entertain
but one idea at time therefore contin-
ued whipping only confirms his stubborn
resolve. Ifyou can by any means give him
new subject to think of, you will general
ly have no trouble in starting him. A SIM
pie remedy is to take couple of turns OF
stout Irvine around the fore leg, just below
the knee, tight enough for the horse to feel,
and tie in bow knot. At the first check
he will generally go dancing off, and after
going short distance, you can get out and
remove the string, to prevent injury to the
tendon in your further drive.
5. Take the tail of the horse between the
hind legs, and tie it bya cord to the sad
die girth.
6. Tie string around the horses ear,
close to his head.

Improving Seed Wheat.

A writer in the Rural NeW Yorker, who
has been remarkably successful i'll the cul-
tivation of wheat as farm crop, says:
1t has been my practice for the last eigh-
teen years to run my wheat for seed over a
very coarse seed screen, so as to SOW none
but the very largest kernels. By so doing
have improved my wheat so that have
sold nearly all my wheat at home for seed.
But in 1871 hit upon new plan. l had
piece of Treadwell wheat that was injur-
cd by insects in the previous fall and kill
cd 10y freezing in the winter, so that there
were spots not worth cutting. After har-
vest observed a few scattered heads OF
unusual size. 1t occurred to me that there
was wheat that lad wiIhstood the ravages
of the insects and the rigor of the winter.
gathered enough to sow ore rod square,
from which realized twenty pounds of
wheat, of unusually large, even berry,
which was at the ratio of over fifty bushels
per acre last harvest had twenty bushels
which weighed sixty-six pounds per bush
ell. 1t is my opinion that we realize the
best crops from the best and most perfect
seed in the vegetable as well rs the animal
kingdom.

LESSON OF GRATITUDE.-A gentleman
was once making inquiries in Russia about
the method of catching bears in that coun-
try. He was told that, to entrap them, a
pit was dug several feet deep, and after
covering it over with turf, leaves, etc, some
food was placed on the top. The bear, if
temped by the bait, easily fell into the
snare "But," he added, "if four or five
happen to get in together, they all get out
again." Show is that ?" asked the gentle
man. "They form sort of ladder by step
ping on each others shoulders, and thus
make their escape" "But how does the
bottom one get out ?"
"Ah these bears, though not possessing
mind and soul such as God has given us,
yet can feel gratitude; and they won't for
get the one who has been the chief means
of procuring their liberty. scampering
Oft, they fetch the branch of tree, which
they let down to their poor brother, en-
abling him speedily to join them in the
freedom in which they rejoice" Sensible
bears, we should say, are great deal bet
ter than some people that we hear about,
who never help themselves.

Several years ago, writes correspon-
dent, gentleman owned farm in Ulster
county. He had upon it several peach
trees, which bore small quantity ofpeach-
es, altogether enough for his family's use.
This gentleman one day sold his farm. His
wife was much displeased about it, and
said the new corners should not have any
benefit from the peach trees. Accordingly,
she heated large kettle of water until it
boiled, and turned it upon the roots of q
peach tree, and so continued to do until she
had been to each tree. "There," said she,
"I've killed them ALL" (This was an igno-
rant, revengeful old lady let us hope no
such ones exist at the present day. Mark
the result. The following Summer the new
corners had an abundance oflarge, smooth,
luscious peaches, such as the trees had
never borne before. This teaches us a les
son, and think it is this: The hot water
killed insects about the roots of the trees,
and made them more healthy, and the fruit
also at the same time. The water was so
cooled before it reached the roots of the
trees it did not hurt them.

"A shrewd old gentleman once said to

MULCm1NG.--The Germantown Telegraph
thus discourses on mulching Trees trans
planted in the spring should be mulched as
soon as the ground becomes dry. For this
purpose grass is as good as anything. Don't
put around the tree too much Mt a time,
and repeat the mulch when it gets dry and
thin. Remove it two or three times during
the summer, and stir up the ground well,
then replace. 1t will save many tree, if
the season should be hot and dry. straw
berry, raspberry and blackberry should al
so be well mulched. Any quantity of dry
stuff about place, especially leaves, scrap
ings, &C., or short grass cut from the lawn,
will do. An application of the contents of
hot-bed is very beneficial.
