French Gardening.


An American market gardener di-

plants nearly ever, variety of truck

gardener gives himself up to the culti-
walton OF special class or succession
OF fruits or vegetables. and by long
study and practice. by experimenting
with various nianures. sells and modes
of culture. arrives at perfection. He IS
also much more cconomicalof space and
more prcdigal of labor than we are. or.
in fact than We Heed he. He seldom
suffers his ground To lie faliow: crop
succeeds crop in endless rotation: the
caalihower is Sc, among the melon

asparagus are planted early potatoes.

IL until its full growth is fairly attainen.
The enormous size OF the French aspar-
agus is chiefly due 10 the manner of
planting. Instead of setting the plants
closely together, as We do. space of at
least six inches square is allowed toeach
stool" which enables it to suck large
amount of nutriment from the soil and
become strong and solid plant. Each
stool is also MANFRED repeatedly every
season. the soil being carefully scraped
away down to the roots. the compost
being placed around them and the earth
put back again. The French system of
culiivating the apple, pear and peach is
also peculiar. The trees are all grated
and dwarfed. A strong wire is stretched
along in front of each row. about three

Il single branch of each tree is trained.
and rs soon rs well started this branch
is made. by heavy pruning, the only
fruit bearing one on the tree. The con-
sequence is that the entire strength of
the tree goes to the nourishing of the
fruit upon this branch, and this fruit be-
comes large and fair in proportion. This
process, by-the-by. is borrowed from the
Chinese. The Press.

Care and Management Of Poultry.


Although great deal has been print
ed in agricultural papers in reference 10
the proper management OF poultry. and
20 many have had years OF experience
IN the rearing oil fowls, yet II Is fact
that no other stock are cared Tor so bad
ly- any one who viii visit the poultry
yards IN The country n, this time VIII DC
forced 10 admit that the fowls are nm
properly cared for, as their poil-combs'
dropping and slckly appearance plainly
Indicate. A few days since we visited
several farm yards, and in every IN
stance found but very few OF the fowls
with bright red combs and glossy
plumage, and in every instance theown-
nrs found fault because ibeirfowis were
not yielding eggs. Theta tbs, the rear
ing of poultry probably requires great
skill and much care, because without
care they are babie 20 diseases which
greatly destroy and inJure the ilock; II
u Therefore necessary TO know how To
care for fowls. We VIII not now speak
@ith reference 10 the breed. vi course.
there Is difference with regard TO the
profits To lie derived from different
breeds. hut no matter what the breed,
cars u requisite TO the best success.
And we may admit that SOM times
where there " an extensive range and
but few fowls they seem 10 do well,
almost without any, or with but little,
attention. but even when a hen runs at
large and procures her own food she
will not produce an egg OF as good quail
i;y As when fed upon good selection
OF food adapted 10 the production OF the
egg. For want Of care in feeding many
fail IN making poultry rearing success.
Feeding should be regular. and only in
such quantities as will satisfy the neces-
sites OF the animals without gorging
themselves. Feed should be given in 4
clean box, or trough, and not be
thrown down for the fowls to run over;
If should also be distributed so rs to be
obtained in equal quantities by all. The
best mode of feeding is, for morning. ia
furnish corn and oats in equal quaint
ties; at noon. give wheat shorts mixed
with sour milk. with a little ginger, and,
occasionally. some sulphur, TO maintain
the health of the fowls. This is the
summer feed. In winter the feeding
should be somewhat different. One
great necessity is pure clean water.
which should be furnished three times a
day, and in a clean carthen or iron YES

Drought and Praver yn 167s

William Hubbard, of Ipswich. Mass, in his History of the Indian Wars,'' printed in 1877, gives the following quaint story of a drought in Connecticut in August, 1676 The writer of the narrative was M. Fitch the minister of Norwich.
 Concerning the drought the true Mar rative of that Providence is this l.: In August last, such was the Want of Rain that the In dian Corn was not only dryed and parched up. but the Apple Trees Withered, the Fruit and Leaves fell off an in Autumn and some Trees seemed to be Dead with that Drought : the Indians came in town and did Lament their Want of Rain and that their Pawawes could get none in their Way of Worship, de- string me that would Seek to God for Rain :; I appointed 8 Fast Day for that Purpose The Day being come, it proved a clear Day without any Clouds until nigh Sun setting when we came from the Meeting and then some Clouds arose, the next Day remaining cloudy; then Uncas with many Indians came to my home. Uncas lauiented there was such want of Rain; I asked whether if God would send us rain, he would not attribute it to their Pawawes He answered, No, for they had done their Uttermost, and all in vain I replied, if you will declare it before all these Indians you shall see what God will do for us {; For although this year he hath shown his anger against the English, and not only against the Indians, yet he hath begun to save us and I have found by Experience twice in the like case, where sought him by Fasting and Prayer he hath given us Rain and never de- nied us Then Uncas made great speech to the Indians (which were many) confessing that if God should send Rain, it could not be ascribed to their Pawawing but must be acknowledged to be answer to our Prayers This day the Clouds spread more and the next Day there was such 8 Plenty of Rain that our River rose more than two Foot in Height"

trunk was found floating in West river near Evergreen cemetery by two boys yes terday. Superintendent Dorman telephoned to the police office. It was found to belong to John Quinn, now in jail How it got in the water is not known. Quinn was sent to jail as civil debtor some three months ago, charged with fraud in buying goods from the Eagle Eyelet company, of Hartford, to the amount of $25O and not paying for them George A. Tyler, Quinn's counsel, had him take the poor debtors oath and yesterday af- ternoon Justice Cooley and Commissioner Baldwin reviewed the proceedings.
 Constable Leete took to the lookup yester day afternoon from Fair Haven an unknown woman who had abused her former employ CTS, the Browns, oyster openers of Fair Ha- ven. She was crazed with something-not liquor, it was said, but medicine she had ta- ken for sickness-and couldn't tell her name
 A fight occurred in front of McGovern's block, near the corner of Wallace and Collis streeS57,, early last evening, betweep. Eiward Murphy and another man. Officer Stewart came upon the scene, and while attempting to arrest the vlolators of the law was set upon by the crowd, knocked down, kicked in the abdomen, had his lip split, his watch chain twitched off and his club taken from him. He brought in his man, however, and after obtaining permission to go home and change his shirt, returned to duty and went back to hunt up the other man and subpoena the witnesses in the case. After Officer Stewart had been home and changed his shirt he returned to his beat, and later in tho evening arre-ted Thomas Dredge, who was the man fighting with Murphy. The whole affair reflects much credit on the off cer, who, though small man, has the repu- tation of being one of the most pIucky and efficient on the force. Officers of this kind should be recognized in some manner by the commissioners

First Annual of Protective Council No. l,
 of This City-Objscts of the seclety-Ad-
 dresses and Refreshment.
 The Carpenters and Joiners' Protective Council No. 1, of this city, held their first annual last evening in Temple of Honor Hall in Insurance building. The families of many of the members were present and the occa- sion was a very enjoyable one.
 MT. F. H. Byrons one of the leading off, cers Of the association, delivered an able of the organization. He said that the society was formed for the purpose of securing unity among all men of the craft and to their fellow workmen. The purpose was to elevate the social, moral and intellectual con- dition of the journeymen carpenters and joiners of this vicinity, and to maintain their interests and regulate all matters affecting the general welfare of the craft, and aid each other in securing employment.
 "The society,"" he said, twas not a trades union,' was not organized for the purpose of encouraging or fostering strikes,' but was purely beneficial in it's character. Any jour- neyman carpenter or joiner known to be of good moral character, and recommended by ! two members as being good, practical work ! man, may be admitted to membership upor paying an initiation fee of one dollar" The | speaker continued at length in explanation oi ! the objects of the organization. Other ad
 dresses were made by members of the coun Gil, and on their conclusion all were invited te l an adjoining room where tables were spread | with refreshments consisting of ice cream ! fruits, lemonade, etc. The company was ! very respectable one, and seemed to be com ! posed of intelligent men and women.
 The present officers are: President, J. Josepl
 Smith vice president, Henry M. Parker
 secretary, H. Grarsby; treasurer, H. D \ Eranch
