PLANTING.

Plant the trees six inches deeper
than you found them in the nursery.
The advantages of this deep planting
are: it prevents the blowing about of
the tree, and it is great security
against their dying out.
Corn is the best crop to cultivate i'm
an orchard. Let the stalks stand over
winter. Reserve a strip five or six
feet wide on each side of the row of
trees, for their exclusive benefit. Cul-
tivate this strip well, but not later
than the middle of June, throwing
the earth 10 the trees. After this date
let the foxtail have fullsway. BY the
first of September the trees will have
made fair growth for the season and
the weeds and foxtail will prevent late
fall growth: will hold the SHOWS; will
make a splendid mulching. thereby
retaining the moisture of the earth
and prevent deep freezing. Throw
the earth to the trees each year you
cultivate, making dead furrow mid
way between the rows of trees, to car
ry off the surplus water of wet seasons,
covering the roots at least inches deep
er than when yOn planted, making a
permanent ridge along the rows. Thus
the trees will be well ballasted against
the winds and to some extent secure
from the excesses of drouth and cold.
How long 1t Is advisable TO cultivate
m orchard depends somewhat on the
size and thriftiness Of the trees; ordi-

The Albany On. Y.) Argns says
Masquerade parties in the First Ward of
West Troy have received death blow.
In Saturdays Argns allusion was made
to supposed peculiar fever, which had
assumed almost an epidemic form in
Port Schuyler. Now II transpires that
the disease in smallpox, which in this
instance, is supposed to have been dis
seminated at q private masquerade re-
Gently held at the residence Of family
named Stanfeld. 1t Is believed, with
good reason, that the hired costumes
used on the occasion contained the
germs of contagion. In the house Of
the Stanfield family three persons are
down with the disease, and in other
houses near by are four invalids from
the same cause. Cards OF warning
have been attached TO the door OF sew
eral houses, and the number of First
Ward victims TO the unfortunate mas
querade is placed at thirty. Numerous
persons from Troy and other places at
tended, and il Is said that several Of the
strangers are similarly afflicted. AL
though the disease first made its APP
pearance among the masqueraders
more than week ago, the West Troy
physicians either failed to discover or
neglected to make known the true state
OF affairs until Saturday. None OF the
patients have died so far, although
some Of the cases are said to be very
severe. In consequence Of the fact that
the lower part Of West Troy has al
ways heretofore enjoyed remarkable
exemption from contagious diseases,
much alarm is manifested among the
residents. Several Of the victims are
Of Roy's Wooden Mill, and
the factory is TO be temporarily shut
down as one means Of checking the
spread Of the disease. The First Ward
District School is also to be closed for
4 similar reason. The future masked
balls Of Port Schuyler will be few and
lar between.
