Fruir Tree Planting.

Have farmers thought the time for planting
orchards has arriyedi Have they set apart a
few more acres of ground to be planted in fruit
trees to furnish fruit for themselves and their
stocki Have they considered the fact that a
few acres in a good orchard will frequently
bring larger, returns than all the rest of the
farmi
The ground should now be got ready for plow-
ing. Let it be rolling ground, if possible, to
~ off the surplus water. The higher the ground
the better it is for fruit it is frequently saved
from destruction by Spring frosts, if on an ele-
waited piece of ground. PlOw the ground deeply
now, and about the first of November cross-plow
it. Put the land in the best possible condition
for the trees. Lay it off carefully, all the rows
will be straight, and not be an eye-sore to every
passer-by. Dig holes about four feet square by
two feet deep, and when the tree is planted, fill
in enough surface soil so the roots will stand no
deeper than when in the nursery. Select good
varieties, such as you know are adapted to your
locality, and plant the trees with care. After
planting, wrap newspaper or brown paper of
some kind around each tree to the height of a
foot and half from the ground to prevent the
rabbits from eating the bark.
Raise corn, or potatoes, or beans, or cabbage,
or tobacco, or some hoed crop, in the orchard for
the first few years, and you will soon have an
abundance of fruit, and yoI will be well paid for
all the expense and care bestowed in securing
you q good orchard.-COlmaR's RHraL

GaIher thc Seed Corn EnrIy,

Seed corn should be gathered before We have
our heavy frosts in the Fall. l have made it a
practice for several years past to go into my
corn field, just as the earliest ears are getting
ripe and husk and sort out the earliest and fair
est ears and store them in loft of my granary.
have not had any trouble in getting a good
stand of corn, and do not have TO wait until late
to plant for fear that the seed is not good. If
corn is taken off the stalk before it is thoroughly
ripened, it will probably shrivel up some; but
it will come up rank and the kernel will decay
sooner, and the birds and squirrels will prey on
it less.
Thousands of bushels of corn would be annual
ly saved in the United States, if more pains were
taken with the seed, and good stand obtained
Don't store seed corn in a bin among the grain,
or nearer than eight to ten feet above the grain
bin as grain in large quantities frequently heats
and the heat arising from grain will destroy IT'S
vitality.
Brother farmers just try gathering your seed
before frost, and you will find yourselves well
paid for time and trouble besides the satisfaction
of knowing that you have good seed. In central
Iowa, generally gather from the 9th to the 10th
of September, to avoid full-moon frost.

Garden Work for oc,ober.

The work now TO be done consists mainly in
maturing growing plants, and preparing for an
early supply in the Spring.
asparagus Beds-MOw all off, and clean the
beds of grass; fork lightly, and give a dressing
of woll-rotted stable manure, and on that SOW
salt literally.
EHdires-Tie up, or cover with flower pots, for

Celey-Earth up, and let it not suffer for wa
ter.
ShGilots, Garlic, Chires, and Horse RGdish-set
out these early in the month, and sow seeds of
rhubarb.
Small SaladiRg.-Can be sown before the 18th
of October.
Cdulifo'rer and BrOccOH-Keep the soil loose
and clean, and hill them toward the end of the
month.

the alleys between the rows or narrow beds car

detriment of the plants and be sure to set out
enough already for a full supply next Summer
of this delicious fruit.
Winter SpiRdch-We are to presume this most
palatable and wholesome vegetable has been
seeded and sufficiently grown to be thinned and
worked. The plants should stand three or four
inches apart, in rows six or eight inches apart.
The soil ought to be very rich if not, give a
heavy top-dressing of mell-rotted manure, and
when cold sets in, spread around the plants
coarse manure it will act as a protecting mulch
against the frosts of severe Winter.

That peculiar form ofcatarrhal influenza which
prevails during the summer from haying to corn
harvest is an annual affection to thousands who
do not exactly know what is the matter with
them. 1t has been supposed incurable, but Il
remedy has at last been found. Prof. Helmholtz,
of Germany, observed that the malady was in
variably characterized by the presence of very
minute infusoria, not unlike the queer little cTea-
lures that we sometimes in rainwater butts,
only very much smaller. These he found stick
ing most tenaciously in the lower cavities and
recesses of the nose, and he noticed that at low
er temperature, they were very sluggish and in
active, but woke up, as it were, when they were
warmed: 1t was found that infusoria might be
poisoned by quinine, and of this fact Helmholtz
ayailed himself The learned professor made a
very weak solution of sulphate of quinine and
lying fiat on his back with his head down, he
poured little of it into each nostril, and found
instant relief. By occasionally repeating the OPP
Grafton he completely routed the enemy, who, in
spite of all his efforts to prevent them, had for
so many years thus audaciously taken up their
summer quarters, net merely under his very nOse
but in it. BY this means he could, he found, en-
joy entire immunity.

a manner that will preserve the fresh, rosy flavor
of the new, with all its sweetness, is the follow
ing from the Duchess Farmer, which is said to
be entirely successful:
ITO three gallons of brine strong enough to
bear an egg, quarter of pound of nice white
sugar and one tablespoonful of saltpeter. Boil
the brine and when it is cold, strain carefully.
Make your butter into rolls, and wrap each sep
arately in a clean white muslin cloth, tying up
with a string. Pack large jar full weight the
butter down, and pour over the brine until all is
submerged. This will keep really good butter
perfectly sweet and fresh whole year. Be care
full to not put upon ice butter that you wish to
keep for any length of time. In summer, when
the heat will not admit of butter being made in
to rolls, pack closely in small jars, and, using the
same brine, allow ii to cover the butter to the
depth of at least four inches. This excludes the
air and answers very well, as the first method
surCcsted."

REPAIRING SHINGLE ROoFs.-A slightly decay
ed single roof may be temporarily preserved
from further decay by good coat of thick lime
wash. A second coat of still thicker lime-wash,
in which fine sand is kept stirred, will act as a
preventative, but the latter application should
be renewed every summer. Painting does not
help preserve the roof, unless done on both sides
of the shingles; if done on but one side, the mois
ture which penetrates beneath them, is kept
there, and prevented from escaping by the coat
of paint on the outside, and the shingles rot very
rapidly. Lime is good preservative for shing-
les, but crude petroleum is the best. The shin
gles first thoroughly dried, may be dipped into it,
or it may be put on after they are laid.-4meri-

keeps eggs perfectly sweet with the above treat
ment, and by special request, after writing the

equal parts, lay the meat on board and rub one
of the parts in every consecutive morning for
four mornings. On the fifth or sixth day it will
be ready to hang up. If the work is done in cold
weather, and the mixture is well rubbed in it,
will keep during the hottest weather, or until
used. We like it best without being smoked; is
nice broiled while new, or firizzled with cream;
equally so, Clipped and eaten raw"

SALT WATER FOR THE EYEs.-Many persons are
suffering pain from weakness of the eyes. This
sometimes proceeds from local Inflammation,
sometimes from other causes. Several persons
who have thus been afflicted inform us that they
have derived almost immediate, and in some cas-
es permanent relief from the application of salt
water as bath: and when the pain has been
aggravated, from a compress saturated with salt
water laid on the eyes, and renewed at frequent
intervals. Opening the eyes and submerging
them in clean salt water has been found benefi-
cial to those whose eyesight begins to fail.
