PRuHIYG AND TRAISIHG FRUIT TREES.
Our most successful pomologists
agree that Il standard tree, in an or
chard, should have five or six feet OF a
clean, straight stem. Straightness can
bo perfectly obtained by keeping the
Young tree tied to Il stake until it has
acquired strength and lirmness enough
to support itself in a straight position.
All shoots proceeding from the stem,
below the first tier Of branches forming
the head, should be rubbed off with the
hand while tender, as, if allowed to
grow, they retaid the development OF
the head and impair the form and habit
Of the tree. In forming the head OF n
young standard, n vigorous upright
root should be secured for Il leader,
and three or four Others OF the most
vigorous to form branches or boughs.
A ~layness of slcndernesS Of habit can
be corrected by pinching OIL the ends
Of the branches, producing a more llor-
iHontal growth. At the present time in
the growing season young trees will be
pushing vigorously, and, as II general
thing, will have made growth enough to
enable the orchardist to perceive what
form they are about to assume-whether
the young branchesare proceeding from
the rightpiace, and ntheri2htdircction
to reach the desired form. If they are not
they should be set right at once by rub
bin, off shoots that are not wanted,
pinching the top oil to retard such as
are pushing too vigorously to the doiri-
ment Of others. An equality Of growth
among the shoots intended for the main
branches, or framework Of the tree,
should be maintained and where n sur

Various methods have from time TO time
been suggested for arresting or destroy

SALT AS A FEETrLIHER Many expert
mcnts have been made to test the value
OF salt AZ n manure, and the following
IL n summary of the results
Salt should never be applied other
than in II pulverized state, and never be
employed on impcrvious, cold and
humid soils. The best manner to use
it is to combine it with other manurcs,
n dose of zoe weight to the acre being
sufficient, When to destroy insects, it
should DO applied before sunrise. In
the case of cereals, salt strengthens the
stems ana causes the ears to fill better,
and fHvors the dissolution and assimila-
ton of the phosphatos and silicates. 1t
acts vigorously on potatoes it can be
detected IN their ashes to the extent of
ont-hnlf of II per cent. Asparagus
is II veritable glutton in the presence of
salt. a dose of 300 lbs. per acre acts
without fail ON beets, iniuring its value
for sugar purposes, but enhancing it for
the feeding Of cattle. Cola has marked
n prediction for salt in asparagus, and
in Holland, where the culture of peas
IL 10 extensive, salt is something like a
necessity.

ANOTHER CLouD-BURsT.-We learn from
gentleman who came in from Fish Creek and
Spring Valley yesterday, says the Eureka Senti-
mel of Thursday, that on Tuesday evening the
section of country lying Immediately south of
the Spring Valley divide was the scene of the
most terrific cloud-burst ever known in the
Eastern Nevada. He says the great food in
Eureka few weeks ago would not begin to
compare with it, as regards the volume and
velocity of the water. Men who were living
in the lOwlands were compelled to zee to the
mountains for safety; and teams, cord-wood,
cabins and mining timbers were swept away
in great profusion. The burst occurred at
about the same time Austin was swamped. 1t
will be remembered that dense cloud swung
around to the southwark, late Tuesday even
ing. Eureka made a very narrow escape from
another terrible food in fact, the storm came
near enough to send quite rush of water
down this side of the mountain. ii as graft
flying to know that the time has about passed
for cloud busts this season. They seldom. If
ever, occur, save in the scorclnng days OF
midsummer.

YOUNG RoBBER.-On Sunday last
several robberies were committed at
Dayton and surroundings. On
Thursday, Deputy Sheriff A. NJ. Nc
Cabe repaired to Virginia, where he
found mere youth, James Taylor,
who had been arrested by Chief
tioning Mr.. McCabe was assured that
the thief had been arrested. He
confessed to knowing the where
abouts of an I.O.O.F. pin, stolen
from the Atlanta Mill. After this, a
search brought out a set of studs,
and some bullion, also supposed 10
have been taken at the same time.
He also confessed where he had sold
the revolvers taken from the Union
Hotel, having sold them to Shoene-
man & Rittar, who, the officer
assured us, denied having the revol.
vers, until the boy went with the
officers to their premises. All the
property, even to the purse in which
the jewelry was taken from the
Atlantic Mill, have been recovered,
with the exception Of the pin, which
he sold for 25 cents. Deputy Sheriff
McCabe passed through town last
evening with the prisoner in charge,
and he is now in the county Jail at
Dayton.
