PHILOSOPHY OF PRUNTNG.-The reason
why many familiar fruit trees not regu.
larly pruned bear only in every other
year is, that the excessive fruit of the
bearing year draws so much of the
ascending sap permanently from the
tree to mature itself as to leave the
former without sufficient nutriment for
buds in the ensuing spring. By the
time a second summer has come around,
however, there is an excess of sap once
more, and consequently excessive
crop.

Agricultural.

The FRoST1ERsXAN' BEEF.-Perhaps
the American buffalo has no rights
which mankind is bound to respect, yet
his status and the question OF his pre-
servation are SO intimately connected
with the rights of the citizens of this
country that they become legitimate
matters of legislation. Two very proper
bills have been introduced in Congress,
one proposing restrictions upon the
killing of bison or buffalo, except for
food or the sake of the skin, and
another a tax levy of one dollar on
every hide taken from undomesticated
buffaloes within the jurisdiction of the
United States. The wanton destruction
of these animals, which has long taken
place unrestrained, is not only cruel,
but ruthless waste of what might be
one of the nations strongest resources.
So far removed are we of the East from
these scenes of cruelty and prodigahty
that we think little of it, but let our
thrifty men consider upon what their
feelings would be were persons calling
themselves sportsmen allowed to raid
upon herds of well-fattened beef cattle
whenever they took a notion, merely
for the fun of it, leaving the valuable
carcasses to rot where they fell. Yet
this is what is being done in the far
West, and every bison that is shot,
merely for the sake of seeing him die,
is as much loss as a stall-fed OK would
be If disposed of in the same way. The
buffalo constitutes the Indians beef,
available on the hoof and on the spot,
and were as much pains taken to pre-
serve and utilize as to destroy them,
we might be spared in more instances
the spectacle of an Indian agent driving
his drove of beef cattle four times
through a corral, and then charging the
Government for four times the number
of animals in it.
PRoPAGATISG FIGs.-Figs may be pro-
pagated very readily by means of layers,
or by cuttings. If you have any old
stool plants, with suckers from the
ground, make several cuts in the latter
near the base, then bank up the soil
around them, and hammer 1t firm.
Cuttings may be made, say two buds
long, square and smooth below and
close to the bottom bud, and say half
an inch above the upper one. Prepare
a shallow box of pure sand, with some
little drainage in the bottom, and insert
the cuttings in it their whole length,
merely allowing the upper bud to show
at the surface. Set the box on gentle
hot-bed, and in short time the plants
will begin to grow. Give plenty of air
and water, but do it judiciously. What
is called hardwood or outdoor cuttings
NAV be made up about six or eight
inches long, placed N the open ground,
in light, mellow soil, with the top bud
even with the surface. Mulch the soil
slightly, and water now and then. A
novice will meet with failures for q
while, but success will follow perseyer-
ance

LACE PAPER.-Lace and perforated
papers are among the prettiest materi-
ais employed in fancy stationery, SO
light and delicate, and so successful the
imitation produced. Half a century
ago the French made this pierced lace
paper chiefly for oramenting fruit packed
in cardboard boxes and later applica-
tions of the same material were used as
ornaments for lamp shades, and as
mounts for small religious pictures.
About forty years ago, NJ. Riviere, a
Swiss matchmaker, settled in London,
obtained patent for new mode of
perforating zinc and other metallic
sheets. The founder of the great firm
of De la Rue, recognizing the useful
ness OF this invention, purchased it for
application in the fancy paper and card
board trades. Perforated paper, whether
called lace paper or not, is now manu-
factured in large quantity, and in al
most infinitely varied forms, not only
by the leading firms, but by many
others. Some of the perforated cards
and cardboards are used for embroider-
ing on with silk and colored beads
some as lace bordering for note paper
some for lining and covering fancy
boxes II various kinds.

House DRAINs.-Where there is a
kitchen sink it is much better to have
the discharge fall on the surface and
there evaporate than to have an imper-
feet drain that smudges, and steams,
and freezes. 1 doubt the propriety of
underground drainage such as is usually
arranged, and if the pipes are less than
four inches in diameter they will become
coated with what looks like mucus, a
white tough, leather substance, which
gradually accumlating, will after time
stop the flow altogether. have seen a
discharge by six-inch pipe into pit
II feet deep which seemed to me to
work well, but then what effect did it
have on the well-water? We had better
be cautious. 1 think that the line of
discharge should be as short as possi-
BILE; that all deep pits are to be avoided,
and that shallow pit lined with brick
or board should be constructed, and
into it fresh earth should be added every
day or SO for deodorizer, and this will
make a valuable compost. 1 find-no
purifier equal to fresh earth, but chic
ride of lime, copperas, and such cnemi
Gals are to be used where only fluids
run. The truth is, dish-water ought
not to be poured into a sink a hog
should be kept, and it should be emp
tied into a swill barrel to which bran,
meal, or other food is added. This
whole subject requires much closer at
tention than it has yet received.
