An unfortunate accident occurred on We'd
nesday last on the farm Of J. d. McCully
in Hutchinson county. A new threshing
machine belonging to Wellington Grant and
Christ Shouts had began its first job Of
thrashing, intending to thrash the whole
crop on the farm. Alter running through
some thirty bushels Of wheat it took fire
from friction and before the fire could be
quenched the machine and four stacks Of
wheat were burned. This is quite . loss to
both parties. The cause of the fire 10 attribu-
ted to bad oils used in greaaing the journals
The grain in the valley is all securely
stacked. Some have threaded their whole
crop out Of the field, supplying the neigh.
bors with that needed and scarce article, -four
The farmer feels good, after such q fine har.
vest and bountifal crop.
Mr.. Hersh, . Russian German, last white,
purchased 100 acres, With a good house AMI

threaded his crop. amounting to 1854 bushel
Of wheat, 400 bushels Of oats, $50 bushels o
barley, and has 10 acres Of fine corn which
will yield 400 bushels. The one crop pay
for his farm and leaves a small balance Of

FARM AND FIRESIDE.
Hints on Pruning.


A correspondent of the American
Farmers club writing on the pruning
and training of fruit trees offered the
following suggestions; Apple trees in
gardens and orchards that are allie wed
to grow freely and naturally, require to
have only their heads thinned out, and
especially in the center, so that light and
air may be freely admitted to every part.
Young trees should be closely looked
after for few years after planting, so
that by the judicious removal of i'll
placed shoots or branches and the short
ening of others, the tree may be encour-
aged to assume a neat style of growth.
Standard and pyramidal pear trees should
be treated in the same way as apple
trees, a good thinning rather than hard
pruning being quite as desirable in their
case as with apples. Horizontally
trained trees against walls require, how
ever, to be treated somewhat differently,
if only for appearance sake. The flowers
are borne on spurs, consequently these
only should be left untouched; and the
shoots made last season should be pruned
close in, say to within an inch or so to
:heir base. The production of fruit
bearing spurs, rather than unfruitful
shoots, on the main branches, should be
the object aimed at in pruning, and 1T
should be borne in mind that hard or
close pruning is not favorable to this
process; consequently be sparing with
| the knife in the case of the horizontal
leaders, which may be nailed in their
entire length if well ripened. Standard
plum trees also require to be well thinned
out if good crops of fine fruit are de-
sired. Plum trees on walls, which are
generally trained in fan shape, must be
treated pretty much the same as pear
| trees. In this case, also, the flowers are
borne on spurs, so that the breast wood
| and such growths as are not required for
mailing in should be cut close back. The
leaders may be nailed in their entire
length in this case also, if well ripened /;
If not, cut back to the well seasoned
wood. Be careful in strong growths not
TO cut back more than is absolutely
necessary. Hand pruning in such cases
means more vigorous growth still in the
coming season. Prune weak shoots close
to encourage vigOr, and cut the strong
ones as little as possible to repress it, and
you will soon get well balanced tree.
The flowers of the peach and nectarine
are borne on the shoots developed the
previous year, hence the system of prun-
| ing to be followed in their case Is totally
| different from those before mentioned.
The shoots which bore flowers and fruits
last season must be cut out as far as
possible and the young growths made at
| the same time encouraged; and If trained
against walls as is advisable with at least
| the nectarines) nailed To their places
straight and neatly, at from two to three
| inches apart.

Curing POrH.

Curing pork so that it will always be
sweet is not difficult matter, provided
the necessary requisites are furnished
pork from young pigs from six 20 ten
months old and plenty of good salt. A
writer in the Country Gentleman says:
Cut the pork up into suitably sized
pieces, after it has lost all the animal
heat, but is should never have been al
lowed to freeze. Pack closely in clean,
hight cask, in alternate layers of pork
and salt, using from half a bushel to a
whole bushel to each barrel 1.-TWO hun
bred pounds) A portion of the salt
must be- preserved for the brine, which
must be boiled and skinned and sat-
urated with salt. When cold pour over
the pork, taking care to provide sufficient
brine to cover the meat at least two
inches. Lay heavy fiat stone on the
pork, to keep it from floating, and the
pork will keep sweet as long rs it is
covered with brine. Ordinary fine
Onondaga salt is Just as good as the
coarse salt, if the same weight is used.
The barrel should always have undis-
solved salt in the brine. For bacon.
hams and shoulders, use eight pounds of
salt, one quart of molasses Cor its equi-
VALENTINE and one-half pounds of
sugar), two ounces of saltpetTe, one
ounce of saleratus, and two ounces of
cayenne pepper to each one hundred
pounds of meat, trimmed Pack as
closely as possible in a cask; using a lit
tie of the salt between the pieces. Boil
and skim the ingredients, and when cold
pour over the meat, adding water suf-
ficient TO cover entirely. In six weeks
the meat can be taken out, rinsed and
hung up to be smoked. Some like a few
cloves and black pepper added to the
pickle. If dry pickle" is preferred,
rub the hams once daily with the above
mixture, in a tub, until the pickle has
all been rubbed into the meat. Hams
prepared in this way never need 9. fresh
ening" before cooking and will keep in
definitely, if secured from flies"
