CULTIVATION OF ApPLEs.-The following
valuable suggestions are from an essay by
Prof Real, Of the Michigan Agricultural
College,:
"The young tree must be treated very much
as you would treat hill of corn. Hoed
crops will answer in young orchard. Sowed
crops will do much harm to young trees. 1t
is a good plan to keep growing trees mulched.
1t prevents the rapid evaporation of moisture
from the soil, keeps the surface mellow, pre-
vents the soil from freezing and thawing in
winter, and becoming overheated in summer,
Whether to cultivate or not can be told by
the looks of the trees. If the color of the
leaves is good and the growth all right, and
the trees bear we'll of very fine fruit, they are
doing we'll enough, even ip the grass. TO
Judge of the condition of an apple free is
much like Judging the condition of sheep in
a pasture"

USE PLENTY OF PA1Nr.-The farmer who
keeps his house, barn, and other out-houses ;
his house.yard fences, his wagons; the wood
work and unused iron. work of his machines
and implements constantly covered with a
coating of good paint, saves a great deal OF
money in the long run: If fact, we know of
no small expenditure that pays as we'll. The
work Of painting these things need no very
skillful hand. Fancy colors Qp mowers and
reapers, plow beams. harrows, eultiyatorS, etc.,
are of no account. Good, durable paints,
ready mixed, can now be bought at reasopa-
BILE prices, and of any color, all over the
country. But any farmer can mix his own
paint if he desires. Ground paint, paint
brushes, oil, and little turpentine as drier,
compose the whole outfit. Oil and lamp;
black make black paint. A simple red
paint is made of red lead and oil.

WATER FOR STRAWBERRIES.

w. H. Earle, in an article on strawberries,
in the Transactions of the Worcester Horti-
cultural Society, quotes the remarks of Pres
ident Wilder on this subject. When asked
how he succeeded in growing such beautiful
strawberries, he replied: "Three things are
necessary. First, you should give them plen
ty of mater. But this will not answer unless
you observe the second requisite, viz, give
the plants little more Water." We have
seen strawberries doubled in size in forty
eight hours, under the drip of a water.cart ;
and if any our readers would like to see for
themselves what water will do, especially if
it should be during dry time, let them place
a barrel filled with water near a line OF
strawberry plants, and make small hole
near the bottom and plug it up so that the
water will scarcely come out in a stream, but
in rapid drops on few plants This can be
done in few minutes, and it will show
striking results. A small trough will carry
the water several feet, or where you want to
apply it.
1t is well known that the strawberry
thrives most in a wet season, but though the
fruit is larger, it is not of 80 good a flavor.
The climate Of England seems to be well
adapted to its cultivation, Our climate is
rather too hot and dry to obtain the best re-
suits as to size and productiveness. An En-.
glishman, noted for his fine berries, was asked
what fertilizers he used and replied, "The
pump HANDLE" or in other words, plenty of
water. We we'll remember that our friend
Hovey, of Cambridge, used to have pipe
brought from the street water-pipe into the
strawberry patch, and let the water run until
the ground was thoroughly soaked. This
was done about the time the fruit was begin
ming to ripen. We know the results were
good, for be produced very large and fine
berries. .E:
When one can run water between the beds
in any way, or sprinkle with water, it will
prove a good plan -COngregationaIist
