DISEASED FRUIT TREEs.-Mr Hopes, President
of the Pennsylvania Fruit Growers Association,
boldly asserts that the diseased fruit trees are in
nine cases out of ten, the results of causes which
have their origin in carelessness or ignorance
Deep planting, he says, is one great error; to
plant tree rather shallower than it formerly stood
is really the right way, whilst many plants tree as
they would post. Roots of two kinds-the
young and tender rootlets, composed entirely of
cells, the feeders of the tree, always found near
the surface getting air and moisture; and roots of
over one year old, which serve only as supporters
to the tree and as conductors of its food. Hence
the injury that ensues when the delicate rootlets
are so deeply buried in earth. Placing fresh or
green manure in contact with the young root is, he
tells us, another error. The placetO put manure is
on the surface, where the elements disintegrate,
dissolve and carry downwards Numerous forms
of fungi generated and reproduced by the ap-
plication of such manures directly to the roots,
and they Immediately attack the tree. 1t is very
well to enrich the soil at transplanting the tree,
but the manure, if it be in contact WITH or very
near the roots, should be thoroughly decomposed.

Eg~Prof. Beal, of Michigan, says; ain our
corn fields are often large numbers of slender stalks
bearing no ears or very small ones. These stalks
have tassels, and they scatter pollen and very
apt to scatter some of the ears the best stalks
ON the very ears which we shall select for seed.
The different kernels on the same ears may have
twenty or more different male parents. Now, the
ory and analogy at least tell us, if we wish to i'm
prove our corn to the greatest extent, we mustpay
some attention to the pollen used. Amueh better
way would be to plant piece of corn by itself on
good soil and test it WELL giving the stalks plenty
at ROOM Before shedding pollen, cut out entirely
or remove the tassels of all the poorest stalks In
this way we not only select from good females,
but also from those fertilized by good males"

FARMER FISH.
He Displays His Horny Hand and Dis
Cusses the Situation.

National Associated Press to the Star
New YORK, July 2.-The Herald says
Farmer Fish, Ex-Secretary of State an
nounces TO the Herald correspondent that
he has retired from politics, and produces
the evidence of biistered hands as proof that
he has taken 10 tilling The soil.
lie declares his belief that General Grant
is not a candidate for nomination for the
Presidency Having enjoyed for years and
still enjoying the EXPresideni'S confidence,
Mr.. Fish is in position to sreak with some
authority on the subject. lie pronounces
Grant the most simple, unassuming and un-
selfish man he ever met. and believes that
but for the little assaults made on him in
advance he would have declined his second
nomination.
Fish believes the agitation OF Grants can
dducy comes not from his friends but his
enemies although at the same time he does
not see any danger to the Republic in a
third term. AS to the coming Democratic
candidate, Farmer Fish thinks it may be
Thurman and will not be Tildcn, but then
Hamilton Fish is not such good authority
on Democratic pclitics as OIL President
Grant.
Fish condemns the New York Custom
house removals as impolitc unfair TO ,he
Sena e, and violation Of the spirit Of the
Tenure of Office Act. AS 10 the effect Of
the removals on the Civil Service Reform,
Fish naively expresses the wish that he
could discover any civil service reform in
Washington.

DrOWNeh in n CiSterEa,

Christina Fahner, married woman, six
ty-fve years old, who lived with her hus-
band, an organist at the Lutheran Church.
near Sedamsville, was found dead in the
cisiern on her place yesterday evening aboat
5 o'clock. The couple lived on the Lower
River Road, just below the Bassett Road.
Mrs. Fahner, during the absence of her
husband, went to the cistern to draw seme
water and, it is alleged, that becoming
dizzy she lost her balance and fell through
the opening.
Another story is circulating that 1t is q
case of suicide. This rumor is due to tie
fact that the poor woman seemed despond-
ent for some time on account of her hus-
band having loaned large sum of money
to neighbor who made an assignment.
This money was hers individually she hay
ing received it from the estate OF her GTss
husband. This statement however, is dis
puted.
The body was taken out of the cistern by
a Mr.. Simon Fehr.
The Coroner was notified and will hold
an inquest.
