apples paratively easy. BY con-
sulting the list of varieties approved by
the horticultural societies of the sew
eral western states a person may be
tolerably certain of the kinds that will
succeed best in a given locality. Gen
orally the nearest nurseryman will
have full stock of the trees that have
been tested in the immediate vicinity.
If he has, it will be the best of wis
dom TO patronize him. 1t would also
be We'll to consult him in regard to tle
location OF the orchard, the position of
the trees, the manner of setting them
out, the proper method of pruning
them, the crops to raise on the ground
between the trees while they are small,
and on all other matters pertaining to
the welfare of the young orchard
III hall the money annually spent on
fruit trees we're paid to person com
petent to look after them and to direct
their proper care and cultivation there
would be fewer disappointments IN re-
gard to the orchards and much larger
yield of fruit. Most farmers would be
gamers they employed an expert not
only to set out their trees but TO take
care of them till they had attained
size to produce crop of fruit. There
is a very great advantage in having one
person prune the trees of an orchard
from the time they are set out till they
come into bearing. A nurseryman will
be certain to have the proper tools 70
doing the work and will know how to
use them to the best advantage. If
nurseryman is employed to transplant
the trees he raises and to have the gen.
eral care of them afterward, he will
take a professional pride in the work,
and do it in the best manner possible.
He will do all the work required OF an
expert in day, once eaca year, if the
orchard is only designed to supply the
wants of family. While pruning the
trees he can give directions to the
owner about keeping them clear OF
insects and in relation to manuring,
mulching, and cultivation.
From present appearances fruit trees
may be set out very early the present
season. Many farmers may engage the
services of q nurseryman or other ex-
pert for the work OF transplanting trees
before trade fairly opens in the spring.
Those who design to set out and care
for their own trees should obtain re-
liable information on the subject of or
charding from the best sources. They
should obtain, if they can, the transac-
tons of the horticultural society of the
state where they live. They should
also procure some ofthe standard works
on Embarrassing, such as Warder's
American Pemology," Downing's
Fruit Trees of America" and ]. J.
Thomas american Fruit Culturist."
More knowledge and less trees will be
likely to produce finer orchard and
more fruit, than many trees planted and
tended as they often are.

A Mare's Nest Egg.

The British Medical Journal says: at
is well known that in America every
thing is counterfeited. The wooden
hams and nutmegs sent from the New
England States are well remembered.
Eggs are also now counterfeited, and
their manufacture is carried out on q
large scale. On one side of a large
room the reporter saw several large cop
per vessels filled with a thick, glutinous,
yellow mass, which a man was constant
ly stirring. This was the yellow of the
egg-the yolk. Ga the opposite side
were similar vessels, in which the white
was fabricated. The egg-shells were
made of white substance, resembling
plaster of Paris, by means ola blow
pipe, Just as soap bubbles are blown.
After being dried in an oven, the egg
shells were filled first with artificial al
bumen, then with some of the artificial
yolk. and, lastly, with little of the arti-
fetal albumen. The small opening at
the end of the egg was closed with white
cement, and the greatest achievement
of modern civilization-the artificial
egg-was ready. In appearance it re-
sembled natural egg, but, whether
cooked or raw, it was indigestible and
Injurious to health"

How to Have an Ape Orchard.

The essential to success, first in order
and first in i'm portance, is reliable infor-
nation on the subject. Ignorance in
relation to the varieties of trees suited
to the locality of he prospective
orchard and in regard to the proper
way of cultivating them is the leading
cause of failure in orchsrding. Persons
who move from the eastern and south
ern states and from foreign countries to
the west will find that their previous
knowledge in regard to the varieties of
trees to plant will be of little value to
them. In truth, it will be quite likely
to lead them to set out trees which will
never attain sufficient size to produce a
crop or which will not mature their
fruit. No tree is so dependent on pecu-
liarities of the soil and nate rs the
apple tree.
The first settlers Of cry portion OF
the western states G. lenced orchards
by setting out trees varieties they
had been accustomt aise in their
old homes. With rare exceptions
they were unsu> ii IN their a.
tempts. In many Cases the trees died
shortly after they were planted. Even
varieties that were the most hardy IN
the Atlantic states proved tender here.
The few trees that lived were generally
unproductiye.
The present success OF apple-raising
in the west is almost entirely due TO
the experiments and investigations Of
the men wfo planted the first orchards.
They labored not only for their own
good, but for the good OF posterity.
They asoertained at the expenditure Of
much time and money what kind Of
trees were hardy in this climate and
what varieties were productive when
they had attained the size for bearing.
The present generation owe a debt Of
gratitude to the pioneer horticultural
lists who rendered the production Of

A DINNER AND A KISS.

81 have brought your dinner, father =
The blacksmith's daughter said.
As she took from her arms kettle
And lifted its shining lid.
t1here's not any pie or pudding,
So will give Won this"
And upon his toll worn forehead
she left a childish Kiss.
The blacksmith tore OF his apron
and dined IN happy mood,
Wondering much at the SAVIOR
Hid in his humble food:
While all about him were visions
Full OF prophetic bliss:
but he never thought OF the magic
In his little daughters Eiss.
While she with her kettle swinging,
Merrily trudced away.
Stopping at sight OF squirrel,
Catching some wild birds lay.
And thought how many a shsdOw
OF life and fate we should miss,
II always our frugal dinners
Were seasoned with kiss.

The Sleeping Car.


The negotiations that have been going
on between the Pullman and Wagner
people were not for the purpose of con-
solidating the lines, but, it is stated, fol
the purpose of establishing a syndicate
(which now seems to be the fashlon)
which should take charge of the various
sleeping car companies in the country.
Such an arrangement was to enable all
the lines to adopt the Pullman system
without making a consolidation neces-
sary. Mr.. Vanderbilt, who is the real
owner of the Wagner line, was strong
ly opposed, it is claimed, to the consoli
dation scheme, because, in such event,
he would have to content himself with
eight per cent. interest, which the Pull
man company Is paying, while he has
managed to squeeze out of his line
about forty per cent. interest by dis
carding all of the improveme nts and
comforts which have made the Pullman
cars so popular. The above scheme has
been under consideration in New York
during the past week, and the meetings
between the Pullman and Vanderbilt
people gave rise to the rumors that
consolidation was about to take place,
which caused the rise in Pullman
stocks. A gentleman who took part in
these negotiations, and who returned
from New York day or two ago, states
that the negotiations thus far have been
devoid of results, owing to the I'M
reasonable demands of Vanderbilt. 1t
seemed to be tie desire of Vanderbilt
to push Mr.. Pullman in the back
ground, and get other parties to the
front. OF course Mr.. Pullman would
not consent to this. and broke up the
negotiations until Mr.. Vanderbilt should
become more reasonable.

and although his features are small he

sent him as resting his head against his
hand in the Washington Irving style.
Spencer is said to have had much to dc

The Richest Silver Mine in the Werld.

The remarkable output of the Robert
E. Lee mine, on Fryer Hill-one day
last week amounting to $118. $50 as the
result of the labor of forty men for sew
enteen hours,-was so far beyond the
experience of even our greatest mines,
that it has attracted universal attention
and been telegraphed all over the land.
This is said to be the largest amount OF
silver ever raised IN one day by any
mine in the world. We are accustomed
to hear in this camp Of productions
from some of our chief mines averag-
ing from $4,000 to $15 900 per day; but
such product as this from a compare
lively new and partially developed mine,
for one days work, was undreamed OF,
and could only be possible with marvel
ously rich ore. The wonder is greater
when it is known that it was all holsted
from two shafts, and with facilities, both
under and above ground, far inferior to
those possessed by many of the mines
of this district.
