Orchard Isauageusept,


A successful Michigan orchardist gives his
method Of cultivation, in a communication to
the Pathological Society, as follows: man
age the field as though there were no trees--
plowing, cropping; seeding to grass, moving,
pasturing, &c. but do not forget my trees
nor allow them to take care of themselves.
l do not allow a living thing to grow under
them---grass, weeds or grain.
When the field is plowed, the plow is al
lowed to skim lightly over the roots, with care
not to cut many if any of them. l am also
particular to keep the trees well mulched
TlJn sUIaw Hitter, e1Uuer from tho bIrn-yard
or strawstack; the latter is preferable, as it is
not so apt TO be mixed with weed-seeds, and
not SO rich as the former. Too much manure
can be applied to fruit trees for their good;
but straw entirely clean and unbroken isl a
capital appcation-if little fine and slight
ly mixed with the droppings of stock as they
feed on it, all the better. Beneath each tree,
and as wide as the branches spread above
(wider if the trees are young) apply the clean
straw eight to twelve inches deep---one-half
or two.thirdssthis depth if the mulching is
finer and richer, as from straw-stack feeding.
In this practice, here is my theory for sue
cess in raising fruit: Plentiful mulching
serves the tree in many ways. First, it is a
fertilizer; second, it always keeps the root
bed soil mellow anG moist; third, it operates
as sponge, by catching and retaining the
water which falls oft-times in summer in
heavy dashing showers, until it gradually
sinks away beneath the tree root-bed, where
it is always much needed in the hot fruiting
season, but where it seldom gets where. turf
is allowed to form-often and nearly always
running of, and not wetting half an inch
deep during a good average shower the little
knoll on which an apple tree is too apt to
stand, SO the roots do not get taste of that
for which they are the most thirsting, and
must have to do well.
Lastly, 1 think in some way it favors the
destruction of the apple worm, which thrives
by thousands and millions in some orchards.
l have not seen a single nest or worm in my
orchard this season, nor do I remember of
seeing any last year, though l have had a
few years before, but never many. have
seen this year in a neighboring orchard ten
to thirty nests TO tree throughout the or
chard, and it looked nearly ruined. This
orchard is often cropped but never mulched
l have yearly uniformity iu bearing, and
enough in abundance to occasionally break

Elected for the Seventeenth Term.

John W. Garrett was unanimously elected
President of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road by its Board of Directors on Wednes-
day for seventeeth term. He positively
declined an increase OF his salary, and it
was fixed at the old rate of $4,000. Mr..
CARROTS management of that great road
has been an example of success, honesty
and business capacity which it would have
been well for other roads in the country to
have copied. He has steadily avoided I'M
wise ventures and speculations, and kept
the expenses of the road always within con-
troll of its earnings, so that when the crash
came the Baltimore and Ohio Road found
itself not only in possession of most valua-
bic franchises, but untrammelled by debt
that it could not control without sapping its
vitals, as so many other roads find themselves
at present circumstanced. The interest and
Improvement of Baltimore, the great city
at the roads terminus, has been steadily
advanced. and although weak politicians
have kept up constant fight against Presi-
dent CARROTS efforts to open up and in
crease the needful facilities of his road, no
charge of extortion OR injustice has ever
been sustained, that have so frequently
been made, at the instance of Jealous par
ties, against the President and corpora
ton. When great ational combination
of railroad companies was sought to be
formed that looked to giant monopoly,
powerful for evil, more than for public
good, Mr.. Garrett utterly refused to be-
come a party to the enterprise, for which
the country owe him a debt of gratitude.
The refusal of President Garrett to have
his salary increased is noble contrast to
the prevailing epidemic of the times, for
increasing the pay of officials, in about the
same ratio that the scale of ability and
honesty descends.

THE CAUSE OF EDUCATION.

The honored Board who has the educa-
ton of the rising generation in charge,
ware in session on Tuesday last, and among
their proceedings will be found resolution
censuring the "Model Teacher" Forget
full, it would seem, of the first principles of
her profession, to learn to obey superiors,
she failed to answer the summons of the
Board to appear before it as witness in
some important matter, which resulted in
this black mark This is the second reso-
luton of censure which has been passed
upon the Model, and third we understand
is ominous, resulting in nothing less than
dismissal. This vote of censure may have
been a little harsh or hasty as we have been
creditably informed that the teacher under
ban had severe attack of mental rheuma-
tism, which had it been known to the
Board, would have gone far toward extenu-
ating, or mitigating the sentence. Or the
name of her academic gr0ges may have
inspired her with a thirst to enjoy that
liberty which is SO dear to every female
heart; and tempted her to brave the dis
pleasure of that awful tribunal, which
holds the destinies in its hand, of so many
priests and priestesses who minister in the
temple of wisdom. But be this as it may
we feel like venturing a word of advice to
our Model Teacher, which is to beware of
that third resolution, and let other teachers
fight their own battles. We feel our edi-
torial ears being boxed smartly for intrud-
ing such piece of advice, but we have the
welfare of our Model Teacher SO deeply at
heart, that we cannot help such an inds-
cretion.
The Fourth "deestrict, and that far
farmed jackson SCHOOL, had another
case before the Board on Tuesday, which
provoked the use of some strong English
between the rival parties. The fair bone
Of contention, we believe, was a teacheress.
There is generally q woman in the fence at
these school rows. Nothing else is so pot
ent to set men by the ears. The Fourth is
proverbially fighting deestrict," and is
10th to give up its honored by time, election
day custom, which cings to it, despite the
softening influences of education.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1874-12-12

ceeding this there is a reference to the
White Leagues and bands of masked and
armed men with their military drills and
menacing demonstrations and outrages,
which spread terror among those of the
opposite political party, and intmidate the
colored voters. Further on in the message
it is intimatcd that the reports of these
ontrages may have been understated by
one side, and may be overstated or exager-
ated by the other, and that it may be worth
while for Congress to inquire and ascertain
by means of a committee "whether the
alleged wrongs to colored citizens for polit-
cal purposes are real, or the reports thereof
of manufactured for the OCCASION The
President closes this part of his message
with the following just and truthful re-
mark:
Many good citizen votes the opposite
not because he agrees with the great princ-
pies of State which separate parties, but
because generally he is opposed to negro
rule. This is a most delusve cry. Treat
the negro as citizen and voter, as he is
and must remain, and soon parties will be
divided, not on the color line, but on princi-
pie. Then we shall have no complaint of
secIional interference.

ANNUAL BILLS,

We will, in a few days, be sending out
our annual bills, and earnestly request inn
mediate attention to them by the receivers.
Those who may not be ready on the receipt
of them to remit the amount, will confer a
favor by addressing us note stating the
shortest time which must elapse before they
are prepared to honor the same. But an
immediate reply, enclosing the amount,
will, in all cases, be the most acceptable
return. The bills are generally small, and
the instances will be dinghy rare that
the parties will not be able to meet them if
they desire to do so earnestly.

SELECTION OF SITE FOR THE HOUSE
OF CoRRECTIoN.-The Governor, Board of
Public Works and the Attorney General,
have selected a property of SO acres, at
$l3S. G6 per acre, on the Washington Branch
of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad in Anne
Arundel county, sixteen miles from Balti-
more. The railroad company have agreed
to run switch into the heart of the build
ing where all stores can be unloaded, saw
ing carting and second handling, and the
fare and freight has been put 90 per cent
below the lowest rates. Several other
advantages are gained by the selection of
this site, which will save considerable
sum annually in expenses incident to such
establishments. Governor Groome could
not prevail on the committee to visit Cecil,
as they had determined from the outset to
locate the building near Baltimore City.

TROUBLE IN THE RING,

That carniverous animal the Elkton Ring,
having picked pretty much all the meat off
the carcass of poor Cecil county, bids fair to
have regular wolf low over the bare bones
Having had unrestrained freedom to par
take of the fat and choice pieces, through
series of years, the Ring, like Jeshurum
waxed fat and kicked, so that no Board of
County Commissioners dared to stand be-
fore it. And it came to pass that the pres
ent Board came from remote parts, and were
frugal men, and not acquainted with the
Ring and the luxuries of the chief city of
the county, and they sought to restrain the
Ring from greedily devouring the substance
of the people; SO they cut down their &C
counts and pared off the excrescences from
their fee bills, and brought the Ring down
to "short commons" and sought, by all
means, to institute the practice of economy
in the expo nditure of the peoples money;
and they rapidly grew into dsfavor with
the Ring, and the Ring did blaspheme and
use profane language, and declared that
these guardians of the peoples treasure
had been fed on asses milk.
And it came to pass on the fourth day of
the week, he, who is President of the Board
of Commissioners, and surnamed Doctor,
was accused of pronouncing some of the
accounts Irregular" to which charge he
plead guilty without exceptions, and was
smote on the cheek by the offended party
with a stave; when he, who is called Presi-
dent of the Board and surnamed Doctor,
girded up his loins and strove against the
enemy. And when the battle waxed hot
and the enemy was unable to withstand
the onslaught, one gentle appeared, who
dealeth in gold from Opher, and precious
stones from the isles of the sea, and trink-
cts and rubies brought by merchants from
the far countries of the East, and poured
oil on the troubled waters and stiled them,
and peace was restored.
But there is cry of peace when there is
no peace, for if the Rings sustenance is cut
off by these men who were nourished on
asses milk, it must surely die; for the pangs
of hunger have made it desperate, and a
writ of oman dam " has been sued out
and sent for the men who would worse than
damn the Ring, even starve it, to appear
before Caesar and show cause why they
seek thus to despoil the Ring of its accus-
toned sustenance, that it may be griped by
famine, SO the peoples taxes may be re-
duced; and when Cesar has heard the COM
plant of the Ring and adjudged the case,
we will send out herald through all the
CirSar
