They will consume a considerable guam

One who knows and loves beans writes
TO the Christian Union that he made
haste to plant Limas in April, and raised
few at a cost-rcckoning labor, seed
and disappointment--of mot less than
twenty-five cents a bean" After that
he took the advice of neighbor, who
reasoned that as this plant sis a rapid
grower. it should have ordinary garden
soil not rich as il contains much nitro
gen, il should not be planted until the
earth is quite warm and dry. else the
seed will decay: that with us Central
New York; May 25th TO June 9Th, is
about the right time. When planting
the five beans in hill be careful to press
them into the soil with the down, and
then cover with sandy loan which
does not crust over when dry. Careful
" observe when the sprouting plant
tries to lift the dirt and aid il by break
ing the ground. Allow only three or
four vines to hill, and when four feet
high pinch them off and never permit
them to grow longer than that this
will cause the growth of the lateral
branches. and double the number of

we urge all who have not got raspbcr-

JUNE BUpDED PEACH TREES.

The saving of one year in the propa-
CATION of peach trees having attracted
attention Of nurserymcn, was induced
to give June budding trial. My first
experiment upon two thousand proved
disastrous. The seeds were planted ON
extra hemp ground Kentucky term
for the best of land, the stocks then av-
craging about the thickness of lead
pencil. After the buds had united well,
they were headed in the usual manner.
Visions of nice, smooth. live stock, that
would compare favorably with Eastern
trees. Aoated pleasantly through my
mind at this time. The stocks when
headed were making an exuberant
growth, and their total defcliation kill
ed the entire lot, outright.
My second experiment, last year, va
ried in detail from the first. in the man.
ner of heading. The tops instead of
being entirely removed were broken
about an inch above the bud until suffi-
cient foliage had been formed below the
fracture to Obyiate the preceding loss.
The buds broke very uniformly. and
when six inches high the tops were en-
tirely removed and as soon as deemed
prudent sprouted. The growth was
not very satisfactory, and the foliage
presented decidedly ''dyspcptic" APP.

Peach trees here, raised in the ordina-

CrRL. IN PEACH LEAVES.

A parasitic fungus often produces
curl in peach leaves. The best remedy
is to promote vigorous growth. A
judicious cutting back. with an applica-
ton Of unleached ashes around the
crown Of the root. and slaked lime about
the remainder is considered beneficial.
Potash is Of importance TO the growth
Of the tree. and assists in preventing
curl in the leaf. 4 bushel of coal ashes
piled around the tree has been known
to correct the curl and prevent the
dropping Of fruit without other remedy
The cutting back ought not to be done
after the new leaves are out. II il has
not been accomplish before the buds are
out, 10 pruning is best omitted

Crc1rxpEn PICKLES.

Picking cucumbcrs are raised in con-
adorable quantities among those farm
crs who live at distance of ten miles
or moro from large market, as they do
not require very heavy manuring, and
are light and easy to transport to mar
ket. They are generally raised as a
second crop after early peas or beans,
or are frequently planted on freshly
turned sod just after cutting the grass
for hay.
The land is prepared by good plow-
ing, narrowing and rolling, after which
the rows are marked out with the small
plow four feet apart, and the manure
placed in the hill and covered with a
hoe: the seeds are dropped by hand six
or eight in hill, covered an inch deep
with the hoe, and well patted down, as
the weather is likely to be hot and dry
at the time Of planting, and unless well
covered. the seeds will fail to germin-
ate.
The best time to put in seed is from
June 20 to July 10. The earlier planted
ones will begin to bear early in August,
the latter ones about September 1.
They are thinned to four in hill
when hoeing. Bugs do not trouble
them much when planted tina. late. and
usually one application of plaster will
suffice to keep them of.
Flat turnip seed is sometimes sown in
the pickle field about August LIST, and
raked in between the hills. After the
frost has killed the cucumber vines, the
turnips have time to make good growth
and will often give fair crop.
The variety of seed used for pickles
is known as the picking cucumber; it
resembles the cluster, is very product
i've, but does not grow large. 81. Louis

MY SISTERS SONG.


The loves our hearts were feeling
In the days that are no more,
Those loves shall still be present
When Times last conflicts DER.
The memory Of aught holy,
Acts ever like charm,
And will, in trials hour,
Our strongest foe disarm.
Our hearts have loved and lost,
But hope to find again.
Be strong, my heart, and bear thy cross
or shame, of sorrow, and Of loss.
Unfinching on LIES main.
The faiths that lived thro' trial,
Though they were part of Doubt;
Those faiths shall yet prove anchors
OF strength within, without.
The memory of aught noble,
Or what We so esteem,
l. still more than fancy,
Is still more than n dream.
Our hearts have loved and trusted,
Are loving, trusting still.
Spirit Of faith! whose mansion
Rises meath Heavens expansion,
More of thy power instill.
Our hopes, tho Oft they falter
When storm-clouds gather round.
Those hopes, D may they ever
Within our hearts be found.
Who'd not have hoped, much rather,
And disappointed been,
Than never have on hopes mountain
The land of promise seen:
Hope ON then, Heart, hope ever.
Believe and trust in God.
Dc strong in Love and bear thy cross
or shame, Of sorrow, and of loss,
Even DER life's thornicst road!
