Trimming Apple Trees.

Experience is the mother of wisdom.
There are different opinions among
farmers about the proper time for trim
ming apple trees. The main object
ought to be to trim in that season of the
year when the wound will entirely heal
over, IL the tree is ruined, sooner or
later. If that object is not accom-
plished the water enters and q hole is
rotted. into the trunk; it becomes hollow
and is destroyed.
Some trim in early spring; the sap
forces itself out of the wound in album
dance, runs down on body or larger
limbs; the bark turns back and often
dies, and the trees are permanently in
jured. Another follows the opposite
extreme and prunes in August, or even
in early winter, when the SAP has
turned into the wood; the wound does
not turn black, rs in the other case, but
heals slowly, if at all, and tree with
holes in it is a final result. If the bark is
entirely peeled off the tree from the
roots to the limbs, in the longest days
of midsummer, which are somewhere
from the 10Th to the Goth of June, a new
bark is formed and the tree is not in
jured, and an old tree is said to be bene-
fitted by the operation. If apple trees
are pruned at this time, if any bark is
accidentally taken off where the limb
has been removed, it villa entirely heal
over if the limb removed is not too
large and the growth is sufficient for
that purpose. The SAP of the tree is
not too thin to run out and blacken the
tree, as in early spring, nor too thick
and already formed into the wood, and
the wound comparatively dry; both
wood and bark as in later pruning are
not stopped in farther growth over the
wound. Many farmers, as a general
thing, prune an orchard without discre-
ton, saving off too large limbs, that
can never heal over, oftentimes cutting
them off some inches from the trunk Of
the tree or the larger limbs from which
they are removed; the stub of the limb
will die to the body and the further de-
cay Of the tree is sure.
In pruning off too much the natural
equilibrium between the roots and the
top is destroyed and the body of the
tree will come out in suckers or
sprouts. Such ignorant farmers had
better cut their trees down and
trim them afterward, which is
easier done, and with more profit to
themselves, as the ground could be en-
ployed for some better purpose. If a
limb is dead there is no option; it must
be cut off close to the tree; the only liv-
ing limbs that should be cut off are the
small ones that will heal over, coming
from the larger branches in the inside
of the top (and those that cross and gall
each other), thereby letting in more
sun to the apples to, give them a better
color and give the picker a better
chance in the tree. Everything beyond
this is superfluous, and pruning had
better be dispensed with altogether.
Many fine orchards receive their death
warrants from such>ill pruning every
year.-N. II. Patriot.

temporary nature, and I had given up all ola
cure until my husband was advised to use Hunts Rem
cdy by o friend that had used 1t and been cured of .
severe case of dropsy and kidney trouble. Iprocured
q bottle, and had not used one-half ofthe bottle before
l began to be better. no pain in the back. and the
swelling of my limbs commenced to 60 down. and my
appetite was much better. for I had become so bad
that all l ate distressed me very much. 1t was really
dyspepsia, combined with the other troubles, and I
have used four bottles, and am able to do my work and

Muttcrings in India.

The Marquis of Ripon, Governor~Gen-
eral of India, has effected a change in
the judiciary Of that vast dependency of
the British crown which is exciting in
tense interest among the natives, as
well as their foreign rulers. Hereto
fore, all the judges and the law courts
in Hindostan have been controlled ex-
,clusively by Englishmen. Some natives
We're appointed to subordinate positions,
and had Jurisdiction in the inferior
courts, but practically the law and its
administration was in the hands of she
foreigner. 1t is not unlikely that these
English Judges and officers OF courts
were, on the whole, well-meaning men,
but it was a cruel humiliation to the
educated and ambitious natives to be
under, as it were, the ban of the law,
and forbidden to take part in the nd
ministration Of justice. That they were
fit is proven by the fact that in all the
courts for years, the Baboos, or head
clerks, had been conducting the real
business of the ~Cutcherries." The
English magistrate might be sitting at
the desk, but it was the native Baboo
who really, inspired the decisions. In
the inferior courts of native jurisdiction,
the Hindoo Judges had achieved a high
reputation. Lord Ripon, seeing the
efficiency of the natives, has brought in
a new Judicature act permitting natives
to become Judges, and providing that
Englishmen as we'll as other foreigners
should be tried before them. 1t is this
last feature which has excited so much
commotion amongst the English officers
and civilian natives. In the eyes of the
Englishman the native is his slave, his
cook, his groom, who has no rights he
is bound to respect or feelings he ought
to consult. As he drives his horses
down the street he scatters the natives
before him, as in France before the
Revolution the carriages scattered the
peasants. If q native of rank and po-
sition travels in a tirst-class carriage he
is liable to be turned out by the guard,
and relegatcd to the third-class carriage,
where his countrymen are penned up
like cattle. 1t is an outrage to the dis
sipated young officer when the posi-
bility is presented to him that when he
is drunk and d%isorderly he may be pun
ished by a "nigger'' Judge. Small as
this matter may seem to an American
reader, it is far more important than the
sreased'cartridges which is said to have
caused the East Indian Revolt in 1867.
After one hundred and fifty years of
possession the Englishmen OF to-day are
but a mere handful compared with the
myriads of natives, and this century
may not end without seeing British
domination overthrown in all the vast
regions south of the MANIFESTATIONS
orest's Monthly.
