AGRICULTURAL.
Orchard Management.

In three years, says writer, I i'm
proved the production of my fruit trees
from fifteen to two hundred bushels, by
treating them in the following manner
I first reduced the top one fourth, then
in the fall I ploughed the soil as we'll as
I could, it being quite rocky, and turned
a short furrow toward the tree. As
worked from them 1 let the plough fall
a little lower, and when between the
trees 1 allowed the plough to run deep,
SO that the water would settle away from
them in the spring hauled fair
quantity Of coarse manure, pulverized it
we'll and marked out the hills, measur-
ing each hill. I planted corn, beans and
pumpkins. The following spring
repeated the same form of cultivation,
and harvested the second crop of corn,
beans and pumpkins, which paid me to
satisfaction. My trees began to grow
very fast, and that fall I harvested
seventy bushels of very good apples.
The following spring MANFRED for the
third time, planted it to potatoes, which
grew very large, but rotted very badly.
I made up the loss, however, by harvest
ing 200 bushels of large and natural
fruit. I changed the production of a
yellow bellflower tree from three.fourths
of bushel to seven bushels, and sold
them for $1.25 per barrel, which think
very good return for my labor. From
my experience I am of the opinion that
most trees have too much top for the
amount of roots and deficiency of
nourishment for producing developed
fruit. I like fall or winter pruning.
Always cover the cut with grating wax
or thick paint. After removing the
limbs by thinning out the centre of the
tree it has tendency to make it grow
broad. Too many varieties are bad, and
hardy stock is all that is needed.

Whe at.GrOwing MaxIms,

The success of the crop of wheat just
harvested will doubtless inspirit oui
farmers the coming fall to put in large
crop this fall. Notwithstanding the
good yield this year, we have good rea-
son to anticipate that the price will be
kept up and be remunerative, because
the old stock left over from the proceeds
ing year-both of wheat and corn-has
been pretty we'll exhausted, and the
expectation of heavy shipments this fall
is evidenced from the fact Shat contracts
on very large scale are being made in
anticipation thereof. 1t is always in
order to be in time for any work that
we may have to perform, therefore we
annex the following items which some.
body has been at the trouble of con.
densing, exhibiting great deal of in.
formation about wheat-growing, as fol.
lows, into very small compass
1. The best soil for wheat is rich clay
loan.
2. Wheat likes good. deep bed.
3. Glover turned under makes Just
such bed.
4. The best seed is oily, heavy, plump
and clean.
5. About two inches is the best depth
for sowing the seed.
6. The drill puts in the seed better
and cheaper than broadcasting.
7. From the middle of September to
the last of October is the best time for
sowing.
s. Drilled, one bushel of seed per
acre; if sown broadcast, two bushels per
acre.
9. One heavy rolling after sowing
does much good.
10. For -four, cut when the grain be-
gins to harden; for seed, not until it
has hardened.

Arsenic.

"Yes," said our friend, the druggist,
~ am often called upon for arsenic to
improve the complexion. OF course I
refused to supply it unless they have a
prescription. 1t is possible, but not
probable, that physician would give
arsenic to woman who wished for it,
as something with which to heighten
her charms at the expense of her health
No respectable practitioner would do it.
There are any number of old women
and quacks ready to attend to that
sort OF thing, and the number of those
who use arsenic in this way is consider
able, have prescribed sulphur in
such cases half dozen times, but never
afterward heard of my fair patients.
Stop! One of them did return. Sine
said that my medicine was not strong
enough. Arsenic was good she had
been told, and she not only asked mt
for it, but was indignant when 1 de
clined to write prescription. The
reason for not giving arsenic in sucf
cases should be obvious enough. The
patient always adopts the principle O.

Learning Farming,

1t is generally understood that to be
mechanic man must serve an ap-
premiership at the trade. The mechan-
ical principles, as we'll as the applica-
ton of them, must be learned. If mer-
camille pursuits are to be engaged in, a
course Of education in q commercial and
business college is essential; and then
the practical details OF the business
must be learned under the eye of one
experienced in the business. No man
expects to enter on successful career
in any of these without years of study
and preparation. And no one would
think of employing any one profession
ally who had not qualified himself for
his calling by this course of thorough
preparation. This being the case in
regard to the other callings in life, it
would seem but reasonable that the
farmer, who for the highest success in
his vocation requires a more general
and varied knowledge than is necessary
for any other business, should seek fol
that previous training which alone Car
qualify him for such success. But such
is not usually the case. 1t seems to be
the prevailing opinion among men-and
especially among farmers-that any
body can farm, whether he has had any
previous knowledge of the business o.
preparation for it, or not. There is
happily, change in the public mind
on this subject; and the time is doubles.
near when a man will no more think of en-
gaging in agricultural pursuits without
an agricultural education than he would
now engage in professional life without
a suitable education. The young mar
who intends to engage in farming should
serve thorough apprenticeship under
the eye Of first class practical farmer.

Trust a Boy.

Somewhat more than fifty years ago,
I was appointed midshipman in the
navy and sent to New York. I was only
fourteen years old, and being of deli
cate make and small stature, did not
look more than eleven. My previous
life had been spent in the country, and
1 knew nothing of city ways or business
proceedings. Payday was the thirtieth
of the month, but I wanted some money
on the twentieth, and passing through
Wall street went into brokers' Office
and said,-
"You lend money here, do you not ?'
"Yes."

cal manner with which the broker look

replying
"You shall have it, anG won't charge

He gave me the money and signed
areceipt, and, I need not add, the twenty
dollars were promptly returned at the
expiration of ten days. am sorry tina;
1 have forgotten the name of the broker
I mentioned the incident many years
afterward to gentleman who said il
was the most extraordinary story he had
ever heard of Wall street broker, of all
men.
The other case happended in Wash

standing in the porch of Williard's
Hotel, when little boy with bright,
honest face said to me,-
"Please, sir, lend me twenty five cents
to set up in business? I want to buy
some newspapers to SELL"
replied
"My boy, I haven't got twenty five
cents, but here are fifty cents, and
when you want to return it you will find
me at this hotel"
"Thaak you," said the little lad. ~
will bring it back"
I never expected to see him or the
money again, and considered it dona-
ton; but in the evening as was walk
ing up and down in the entrance hall
smoking, my coat was pulled by little
newsboy, and turned and beheld the
youngster who had applied for loan in
the morning, with the same bright face
that attracted me then.
"Well, my man, what ia it?" I said,
as though I didn't know him.
