atcd." lie also gives notice that all returns
for the assessment of banks, banking assocla'
Citations, companies and corporations and OF
bankers hereafter made will be required to en-
brace the entire amount of paid up capital of
the bank, corporation or company, and the
entire capital employed by any private bark
or banker in the business of banking. The
returns will also, 10 each case, state as deduc-
ton from the capital the average amount IN
vested in United States bonds. No other de-
ductlou than this will be allowed. This is
most unexpected response to the late apphca'
t;or of the banks for relief from taxation.

The american Agriculturist, in answer to a
correspondent who inquiries when to trans
plant evergrcens, says an our experience
we have not round the when so important as
the how, havlug r"mOvcd the trees IN the
fall, aud early sat- late in the spring. If one
can have his choice Of times, no doubt that
the period when the swelling of the buds
shows that vegetation Is active would be pre-
ferable, but we have succeeded with much
earlier and much later planting. The one
great and all essrnli point is to keep the
roots from beco,'ior dry. If these are diy
send the tree to Sc hrush.heap, as that will be
its ultimate deslina,ion. 1.-THE trees are to be
brought from no lreat distance, n dull day
can be waited r,r otherwise the roots must be
packed in wet - -, be pudded or some pro-
lection given Ia IA; they had better be kept
soaking wet than 20 dry at all. Some ask what
manure to use. l'robably guano would kill
them quickest, IL. fresh stable manure will
be pretty sure. = yer manure an evergreen

composed manure viii be of use The top al

Wash harness thoroughly with warm soft
water and CASTLE soap, ana brush out every
particle of dust before pattng on the oil.
This is the important point. Better not oil at
all than to apply it on dirty leather. The har-
ness should be taken apart and the pieces
washed and oiled separately. Rub on the oil
while the leather is soflened with the water.
1t can be applied at once if the leather is rub
bed with dirty cloth il should be soft, but
not too wet. After applying the OIL, hang up
20 dry for a few hours. Old harness that has
been neglected, and Is dry and hard, had bet
ter not be oiled. The evil is already done.
The fbers of the leather have lost their tcna-
city, and sottening the leather weakeus il,
Just as a wet sheet Of paper will tear more
easily than dry one. Proper oling causes
harness 10 last as long again.
