TINE TO TRIM FRUIT TREES. As
a rule, it is better to trim after
growth stops in autumn. Especially
is this the case when it is desired to
increase the vigor and growth of the
trees. Taking off part of the limbs
gives the roots the advsntage-more
roots and less top-and in the spring
vigorous growth of top ensues. If
the tree is already vigorous and
needs checking to develop fruitful
ness. then summer pruning is better.
The tree being in full growth is
checked by taking away part Of
its working organs (the leaves) aud
the sap is turned to the fruit buds.
The same thing may be accomplish
ed by digging trench all around
the tree, cutting off its roots and
then filling it up again. The dis
lance of the trench from the tree va
ries with its size-from thee 10 six
feet the smaller the tree the nearer
the trench. 1t is we'll to watch
trees in summer and rob off super

A WASH FOR FRUIT TREES For
the past twenty years have used a
mixture of lime and sulphur as a
wash for the prevention and destruc~
ton of fungoid growth on all kinds
of fruit trees, and with decidedly
beneficial effects. 1t is now we'll as
certained that many of the diseases
both vegetables and animals are due
to fungoid growths, and sulphur is
the best known and one of the most
potent antidotes for the mycelium
and spores of microscopical fungi,
and the most practical mode of using
it is as an Ingredient in the ordinary
lime wash, applied to fences and ex-
ternal rough woodwork. As sani>
tary auxiliary in cities, its employ

diseases becomes known. If every
fence, tree>box, out building or
rough wooden structure in this city
could at once receive a coating of,
this wash it would greatly check the
spread of malsrial disorders. 1t is
not costly, and the sulphur impsrts
additional adhesive qualities to the
mixture.
The wash is prepared by placing
half bushel of fresh burned lime

THE counsel for condemned mur.
derer in New York appealed his case
on the ground that his client was the
victim Of an appetite for drink, which
amounted TO a disease that destroyed
his will-power and rendered him le.
gally irresponsible. A new trial was
asked because the Court below had re.
fused to charge the jury that the &C.
cused was not responsible if the crime
had been committed when he was Ia
boring under such disease. The Court
of Appeals very sensibly declined to
recognize drunkenness as an excuse
for crime, holding that not even fren.
zy or mental alienation caused by
drink can exempt person accused Of
murder from criminal responsibility.
If a man voluntarily gets drunk and
commits a crime while in that condi.
ton he must answer for the conse.
luences Of his acts. OF course to
rule otherwise would be a parody on
the administration Of justice and
would amount to nothing more than
license for murder to that class who
are physically unable to do such an
act unless their courage is screwed up
10 the sticking point with whisky. In.
'tead of drunkenness being an excuse
lor crime, we would be glad to see it
made the reason for the greater pun
shment Of those who commit crime
while ia that condition.

THE Louisville Commercial is in
formed that while we are no especial
advocate of the Common Schools as
managed in Kentucky and several other
States, we have for years advocated
repeal Of the law discriminating be-
tween whites and blacks in a division
of the fund. The point that we tried
to make in our last issue was that it
was exceedingly unfortunate for the
colored people that in the face of an
effort to right matters, they should
under the leadership Of parcel Of de-
signing scsmps, meet and adopt reso-
lutions so harsh as TO drive from their
support those who would otherwise
have stood by them. Not content
with resolving to refuse to pay a tax
that had already been repealed, they
in effect demand that we shall have
mixed schools, by "denouncing as
cowardly, anti.American and infa-
nous, the clause of the proposed
law" providing that the white and
colored schools shall be maintained
separately. The idea Of having his
children educated along side negro
is most repulsive to the average Ken
tuckian, who will think if one demand
is granted the colored people, the 9th
er will in time be given them. They
had rather, and so had we, see the
entire system abolished than that
mixed schools should ever be main
tained in this State. We are for CIV
ing the negro every right to which he
is entitled by law and shall vote to
aid him in that end, but when he de-
mands social equality, we draw the
line. An equal division Of the school
fund, they ought to have, and hey
shall have, if we are to decide the
matter, but the day will not come in
this generation when white and color
ed children shall sit side by side in
school Does our esteemed
contemporary advocate mixed schoolsS

wisely in demanding it2
