TBANsrLANTNG Strawberries. A young
cultivator wishes to know the comparative adj
vantages of setting out strawberries at differ
ent times in the year. In answer The
best time is in spring, as soon rs the ground
becomes dry enough TO be friable, and the
plants are preparing to start. II the work is
well done, every plant will live Young plants
are to be chosen which rooted from runners
the previous autumn. p The next time is
just after bearing, when the plants have been
thrown into partly dormant state by the ex-
hauston of fruiting. 1t has the disadvantage
Of having no newly-rootrd runners for set
ting. This period may be extended for q
month or two, care being taken to lift plenty
of roots, to cut of the larger leaves to i'm
merse the roots in mud to settle the soil with
water and to mulch with fine manure. With
this additional care. the plants will mostly
live and make fair growth before winter.
,. The third period is early in autumn, rs
soon rs the newly rooted runners afford good
plants. But success is uncertain, As such
plants do not make much growth before win

EARLY CoRN.-A correspondent of Yick's
Magazine gives the following directions for
bringing corn to maturity early in the sea
son, adding that he picked corn last year in
side of sixty days from time of planting
LET the conditions of the soil and manure
be the best you can command and, aside
from the frequent wedding and hOeing, stir
ring the ground thoroughly, thin the stalks
to three or four-three is best if you would
have the largest ears and most of them.
Pluck out numerically every sucker and non
bearing stalk that process alone will hasten
your corn a week or ten days, as have come
TO believe from experiment l have added
this year top-dressing at the hill, when the
corn was well up-a compost of one part
plaster two parts ashes, and two parts fine
manure, which, think, has been great adj
vantage" Those who wish early corn should
not only have for seed what is called IAN
early kind, but they should obtain it from
as far North as possible. Seed corn raised in
Canada and taken South will come to perfec-
ton one, two or three weeks earlier than that
ripened on the spot. The reason is that the
seed raised in the North has adapted itself to
short season. This is true, in a measure, of
all seeds.

L1QUID GRAPHING This, if properly
made, may be readily applied to outdoor
grating, without the trouble of heating, and
it is also good application to wounds made
in pruning: Melt pound of rosin with a
pound of tallow, and when mixed, remove
from the stove and allow it to cool till a scum
begins to form. Then add a teaspoonful Of
turpentine. Replace on the stove, and add
seven ounces of mixture of two parts of al
cohol and one part of water, stirring briskly
and taking care that the alcohol does not
burn, as it will if too hot. Stir till of the
consistence of honey keep corked, and ap-
ply with a brush. If it gets too hard, re-melt
and apply few drops of turpentine, and of

WHERE TO PLANT AN APPLE-ORCHARD.- -
The best site for an apple orchard-and we
may add peach-orchard also-is undoubt-
eddy northern exposure. Experience in ev-
cry direction proves this We do not say
that apples will not do well in valleys or
southern exposures, but not uniformly so
well by any means Any one who chooses
to know, ought to be informed that uniform
ity Of temperature and retardation in bud
ding are everything in preserving the health
and promoting the productiyeness of any
fruit tree. An orchard planted, say in this
latitude on a hillside with full northern
exposure, always stands the winter and is un-
iformly productive. That with a southern ex-
posture, planted in valleys or protected by
belts, is liable to constant changes of temper
AZURE, buds early and is subject to late
frosts, which prevail only in low situations,
and to consequent destruction of the crop of
fruit 1t may be just as we'll for those who
may contemplate setting ont an orchard this
fall to bear this in mind All desire to know
the surest way to success in any crop, and
this is undoubtedly the surest way in apple
growing and in peach growing too Ger

should commence by cutting the corn at the
ground as soon as the ears begin to glaze
over, and then stocking it. prefer stocking
corn to topping, because the grain, is nearly,
il not quite, as good, and the fodder is very
much better. If it is put up early and in good
shape, 50 rs to stand up and shed the rain,
the whole fodder will be nearly as good us the
tops would be cut separately. Every one
knows that corn butts or husks as they are
usually called, when they are left exposed to
the weather until husking time, are very poor
II by stocking We can preserve them in as
good condition as the tops are when dried
and bound we are increasing the value of the
fodder very much. The husking can be done
at any time when most convenient after the
stalks are seasoned through or it may be
husked in the field and the fodder left in the
stocks until winter, if it will stand SO long
When corn is husked before the fodder is
thoroughly cured, and the stalks are stored in
the barn, they should be mixed with straw,
which viii absorb some of the moisture and
help TO prevent them from moulding. l do
not believe mouldy fodder is proper food for
stock, although some claim it is relished by
them better than bright fodder. II would be
well TO sprinkle little salt over the fodder,
also as some of us do on our green hay. 1t
checks the tendency to mould, and it will be
relshed by the stock. That the time may
soon come when Indian corn will again be a
leading crop on New England farms is the
hope of your correspondent.

AN ARTFUL YOU'VE MAN.-Three
pretty young girls walking along Rich
mond street toward the depot were
caught in sudden drenching rain, and
were unluckily provided with only one
whalebone aud silk covering for their
heads. The narrow sidewalk made it
almost impossible for the three to walk

who was addressed as ANNE received
all the drippings OF the umbrella upon
her unselfsh head.
A gentleman walking just behind
them noticed this, and tried, as unob-
