ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

THINNING the fruit upon dwarf trees,
is especially necessary, as they are liza
BILE to over-bear The quality of pears
and peaches especially may be greatly
Increased by this treatment.
PRUNING may yet be done, and this
season is by many regarded as the best
for cutting out large limbs, as the
wounds heal rapidly
BUDDING is usually commenced this
month, but the only safe rule is to do
the work when good, well-formed buds
NAV be had, and the bark of the stalk
will lift easy.
SLUGs which so disfgure pear and
other trees, may be destroyed by dust
ing with powdered lime.
STRAWBERRIES the plants arc
through bearing the mulch should be
removed, and the soil between the rows
stirred, and weedcd, and MANFRED; if
fine manure is not to be had, apply a
good dressing of ground bone or other
fertilizer If new beds are to be set, let
enough runners grow to furnish plants,
and remove the rest.
GRAPE NINEs-Tie up the young
growth before it becomes too long, and
gets broken by the wnd rub off all use
less shoots that start. For midew
apply sulphur with bellows made for
that purpose Hand-pick the beetles and
caterpillars which infest the vines
Make layers by burying the shoots in
the soil when they become firm and
woody, allowing the upper part to re-
main uncovered.
RAsPBERRIEs-Ass soon as through
bearing, cut out the old canes and tie
up the new growth. Three or four
new canes to plant are enough
CABBAGEs AND CAULIFLOwERS.-
Transplant for late crops this month,
using only the most vigorous plants
There are many spots around every
garden where a few cabbages can be
grown, and all such places should be
occupied If transplanting must be
done during dry weather, the roots
should be placed in thin mud for few
minutes, until they are we'll coated with
it; this requires but little time, and
often saves many plants. Hoe cstab-
lished plants as often as possible.
CARRoTs.-Thn out as soon as large
enough to handle, and keep the rows
clear of weeds until tie tops cover the
ground and prevent working. Those
whice throw up Il flower stalk should
be pulled out.
CELERY need not be planted out be-
fore the middle or end of this month,
and if the plants become well estab-
lished, then they will grow rapidly
when the weather becomes cooler
Market growers always plant on level
ground, and not in trenches, as the first
is much the easier way. The dwarf or
smaller growing kinds, are best forfam
lily use, but the larger growing sell best
in most markets.
CoRN-Sow few rows of the early
sorts this month, so as to have some
for late picking AS fast as the early
sorts are exhausted, the stalks should
be cut, and either fed to cattle fresh, or
cured for winter fodder
CUCUMBERs:-If pickles are needed,
plant now in well-manured hills feet
apart each way

the great battlefield of Waterloo, where
so many of their kith and kin had been
slaughtered had been ransacked for
the bones of their heroes, from which
to make bread and meat for their
posterity. Mr.. Sands showed that NOW
true science and practical experiments
had demonstrated that the great secret
of nature was about being fully de-
veloped, and that it was determined
almost to mathematical certainty the
exact amount of the ingredients neces-
sary to make crop within the limits of
nature in veritcaton of which he re-
ferred to the experiments and researches
of Professor Stockbridge, of the Mas
sachusetts Agricultural College; NJ.
Vile. of France, and others, which
have been published in the agricultural
reports of the day.
1t was admitted that if all the pro-
ducts of the Eeld,-grain, hay, straw
&c.,-were used on the farm, then there
would not be the same necessity for fur
nishine the phosphates and nitrogen
and other constituents of plants which
are usually shipped off for the markets
of the world A properly proportioned
mixture with the barn-yard manure of
phosphates and ammonia, in the shape
of bone dust, mineral phosphates or
superphosphates, will be found the NE
PLUS ULTRA of the farmer, the proper
tons of which can be best determined
by he nature of the plant to which it
is applied Some crops, such as tobac-
co and potatoes, requiring potash, are
largely increased by the addition of
ashes, whilst all applications of plaster
will be found of great value, especially
when mixed with manures or fertilizers
containing ammonia, to preserve them
from the loss of that ingredient in their
composition, and more especially is its
value found to be extremely profitable
when applied to clover and plants of
that class Qeguminosa)
In connection with these remarks, the
speaker alluded to the practice of some
farmers or planters who applied to their
crops commercial fertilizers and ex-
pected to realize, from the solubility Of
the same, the full benefit of the expend-
iture this is upon the same principle
which was formerly in vogue with re-
spect to the application of guano. 1t
| did pay we'll at first, -not only the cost, ,
but also a good profit, but it left the
land in depleted state, and such,
probably is the calculation of thoes who
expect to get the full returns for their
money expended with profit, calculat-
ing to use other fields of their large
estates for subsequent cropping. One
of these planters, in his maxims for
raising cotton, says that "cotton plants
commence when small to take on and
mature bolls and continue until they ex-
haust the soluble matter or reach the
full capacity of the land. Two stalks
will do that much sooner than one and
will so avoid the late drought, cater
piller, etc Cotton will grow after cot
ton a number of years in succession,
with plenty of manure" But the end
will eventually come.

Among the great
discoveries of modern
science, few are Of
more real value to
mankind than this eff.
fectual remedy for all
diseases of the Throat
and Lungs. A vast
trial Of its virtues,
throughout this and
other countries, has
shown that it does
surely and cflectually
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1875-07-10

control them. The testimony of our best citi-
zens of all classes, establishes the fact. that
CHERRY PICTORIAL will and does relieve and
cure the affecting disorders Of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections Of the Pulmonary Organs
yield to its power; and cases of Consump-
ton, cured by this preparation, are public
ly known, SO remarkable as hardly to be be-
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute
As n remedy it Is adequate, on which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, 1t saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. 1t challenges trial, and con-
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as protection against the early
and unperccved attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are easily met at first, but which become
incurable and too often fatal, If neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. As safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest of Childhood, CHERRY PICTORIAL
is invaluable; for, by its timely use, multi
titudcs are rescued from premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
1t acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain
full Bronchitis, when they know how easily
they can be cured.
Originally the product OF long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toll
Is spared IN making every DOUG IN inc utmost
possible perfection. 1t may be confidently re-
lied upon possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures as
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.

THE PATRONS OF HUsBANDRY.

OF the rise and wonderful progress
of the Grangers few people have cor
rect idea. Grand lecturer Thompson
in brief speech at an entertainmenL
in New York, Tuesday evening, 9th
inst, said: american farmers, until
recently, have ignored the principle
that is moving the world-the princi-
pie of association. Their individuaI-
ization was the cause of their subjec
ton to almost every other interest
Six years ago no manufacturers dealt
with us directly; no elevators or ware
houses were owned by US, an no bands
or insurance companies were controll-
ed by us. Now, in one State alone,
there are thirty-fve insurance COM
panies; and more than half the eleva-
tors in Iowa and Wisconsin are under
our control. Furthermore, we have
agents in every section of the country
to whom We ship our products, from
whom we receive prices forty to fifty
per cent. higher than those we used to
get from local buyers. In consequence
of the fairness of our treatment by
these agents, who are bound by the
ties of brotherhood and heavy money
bonds, the Patrons of Husbandry
saved s5,0O0,0O0 in 1878, and $12,-
10000 in 1874 and according to pres.
ent indications, will save at least $780,
100000 in 1875. Six years ago there
were ten Oranges the next year there
were thirty-eight; the next, thirty
nine; the next, 10000; the next, 90
900. Now there are fifteen Oranges
joining our ranks daily, and we num-
her 100000. Our experience is
pointed proof that women are worthy
members of every union. We have
400, 900 of them among us, and we
ought 10 be qualified to give an opin-
ion of this kind"

This vast cemetery is the oldest and
largest in the world, extending from
the pyramids of Ghizeh on the north,
to those of Dashur on the routh, dis
tance of perhaps twenty miles, and is
estimated to contain at least 25,000,-
600 human bodies, besides innumera-
BILE Jbises, and embalmed animals. In
strolling through this metropolis of the
dead, one is shocked at the number of
skulls and other human remains that
lie bleaching the sun; often the head
or feet OF mummy protruding from
the sand, and the desert around strewn
with arms and legs, hands and feet,
sometimes whole bodies, still wrapped
in their winding sheets, calling up
vividly in the mind Ezekial's vision of
dry bones, for "Lo, they were very
many and very dry" and continually
prompting the inquiry, Can these
bones live?" and the answer, 20 Lorf
God, thou knowest"
We entered several pits that appear
cd to be the burial place for the lower
classes, and found long galleries cut in
the limestone rock that underles the
desert, filled with mummies, piled one
one upon another. six and eight courses
deep, all carefully embalmed, and
looking as if laid but yesterday in
their quiet tombs, and yet these count
less thousands we're the men and wo-
men who lived in the days of Abra-
ham, and Joseph, and Moses
We spent hours in going from pit to
pit, wandering through the courts of
death, between walls of human num-
mics, some beautifully encased, with
their arms folded across their breasts,
holding some little charm or idol in
their embrace, just as they were laid
to rest three or four thousand years
ago. And what is most revolving, the
natives are using these mummies for
fuel, and fertalizng their fields with
the dust and ashes of their ancestors
For scientific and chronological pur-
poses, we examined many of these re-
mains, and to our surprise found them
mostly young persons, their heads
thickly coated with straight black
hair, all their teeth sound, their bodies
we'll proportioned, and of full habit,
as if they had died suddenly. They
also appeared to have been embalmed
hastily-simply wrapped in swathing
bands and dipped in common pitch or
bitumen.
AS it was here, or near this, that
Moses wrought his miracles before
Pharaoh, and as this was the Necropo-
lis for all Egygt, may not these be the
victims of divine wrath, that perished
on that eventful night, when the de-
stroying angel swept through the land,
cutting off "the first born" in every
Egyptian householdH
In the center of this Metropolis are
the pyramids of Sahara, the royal
tombs of the Mempbite kings, bald
with age and looking as old as the
sand hills among which they stand.
There are eleven in the group, the
largest of which is curiously built in
stages or terraces, diminishing as they
90 up, and is claimed to be the most
ancient monument in the world

Virginia paper:


We copy this slight "hint" from a
Virginia paper:
GAS the report that we are very
wealthy has gone abroad among our
subscribers, and has made them awful
slow about paying up, thinking doubt.
less we don't want the money, we hast
en- to say that the report of our wealth
is false in every particular. If ocean
steamers were selling at cent doz-
en-, we couldn't make the first payment
on a canoe. The lightning of poverty
has struck us square, and had it not
been for an armful of hay our devil
managed to steal from a blind mule,
our large and interesting family would
be without a mouthful to eat at this
moment. Is not this a sad picture,
and you delinquent subscribers look
upon it without feeling the greenbacks
rustic with indignation in your pocket
books? We do not like to dun you,
but we must if you fail to take the
hint"
