To Make Apple Trees Hold Fruit.

The one serious objection to the russell,
says a writer in the Prairie Farmer, is
that it will not hold its fruit till it natures.
The apple, when small, takes kind Of
dry rot; the first you may notice is when
the apple is not larger than the egg of a
quail, and on closer inspection there is a
small brown spot on one side OF 1t, and
almost as soon as the brown spot appears
on the fruit it falls off and will keep fall
ing off till gathering time. While this is
the way with some, others will not bear
at all. The russell is a massive topped
tree, growing very thick, with small twigs,
and making a dense shade-tOo much for
the fruit to grow or mature, There is a
way to cultivate them, and that Is this
First prune them till they are thinly clad
with limbs, getting them as regular as
possible. The most preferable time is
March, for the sap is then rising, and it
forms a kind Of gum on the stump. There
should be care taken in pruning so as net
to split the limbs after they are pruned.
If the ground be in order dig away the
dirt from the roots of the trees and loosen
the soil well. Take one pound of rusty
nails and drive in the roots Of the trees,
and cover we'll with stable manure and
/ loose dirt; then sow some clover, for it is
/ a settled fact that clover is fertilizer,
/ Let it remain till the small grass takes it.
! One of the most convenient ways to get
rusty nails is to throw an old post into
the fire that is full Of nails, then take out
the nails when hot. Throw on some sail
| water and lay outdoors till ready for use

Potato Seed.

A farmer planted in his garden ten rows
of Irish potatoes, each row consisting OF
four hills. His object was to ascertain
the amount of planting material requisite
to reach satisfactory results. Here is the
result:
First row-One eye in each hill. Pro-
duct, forty pounds of well.develOped pota-
toes.
Second row-Two eyes in each hill. Pro-
duct, fifty pounds of tubers, rather mixed
as to size.
Third row-Three eyes in each hill. Pro-
duct, tifty-siX pounds Of mixed sizes, many
small ones.
Fourth row-Seed end of medium pOta-
to. Product, siXty-tnree pounds, very few
small tubers, mostly large.
Fifth row-Butt end of a medium pOta-
to. Product, filty-one pounds; few large
tubers, mostly small.
Sixth row-One small potato. Product,
sixty pounds, mixed as to size, many
small ones.
Product. seVenty-three mounds of tubers,
very fine and large, few small ones.
Eighth row-One large potato. Product,
one hundred and two pounds of uniformly
large size.
Professor Roberts reported to the New
York Farmers Club that he had found
that under the same conditions small pO-
tatOes for seed gave the poorest result, the
middle part of large potatoes next, the
seed end next, and the stem end the best.
A whole large potato, with single eye,
was the best possible seed. More work is
needed, bat better crops are secured by
cultivating in rows or drills rather than
in hills VdUghR'S Manual.

WORKINGMEN Us. CLEVELAND.

The workingmen of the country under
stand Grover Cleveland's feelings towards
them pretty thoroughly and are not
afraid to show their feelings of disgust
towards him as will be seen from the
following:
WASHINGTON, July 16.-A regular
meeting of the Federation of Labor
Unions was held last night. The follow
ing preamble and resolutions were adopt
ed:
WHEREAS, Stephen Grover Cleveland
is candidate for President of the United
States; and
WHEREAS, The said Stephen Grover
Cleveland has shown himself to be Bit
ter enemy of the workingmen and the
workingmen's interests, inasmuch as he
has used the power accidentally acqui,-
ed) of vetoing all the bills which the
workingmen have for years been Try :
to have enacted into laws in the State of
New York, as follows: l. A bill to
reduce the number of hours work for
street car drivers and conductors from
seventeen to twelve hours per day, vetoed
by Stephen Grover Cleveland. 2. A
bill to prohibit the employing of children
under IL years of age in any mill or
factory in the State of New York was
vetoed by Stephen Grover Cleveland. 8.
A bill to enable the wives and ,hildren
of workmen and all others to ride on the
elevated railroad for cents fare. Vetoed
by Stephen Grover Cleveland. 4. 4
bill called mechanics lien law, to pre-
vent swindlers from robhing working
men out of their hard-earned wages.
Vetoed by Stephen Grover Cleveland. 5.
A bill 10 prohibit infection and disease
from spreading throughout the ccmmu-
nifty by forbidding the manufacture of
any cigars in tenement used as an
eating, sleeping, and work-room, one
room for all purposes, sthus placing in
the mouths of al smokers of low-priced
cigars the seeds of whatever disease NAV
be prevailing in such places. Vetoed by
Steven Grover Cleveland. Therefore
be it
ResotUed, That the workingmen of the
United States haye too much at stake to
trust the power of vetoeing of such bills
as the eighth-hour law, and the bill to
prevent the importation of foreign con-
tract labor, and the bill to prohibit prison
contract labor, and the bill to forfeit all
unearned grants of land made to rail
road corporations in the hands of Stephen
Grover Cleveland.
ResotUed, That We shall aid in every
honorable way to defeat the vassal OF
corporations and the servant of capital
1sts-Stephen Grover Cleveland.

The Madison Journal, noticing the
complaint made in the new Democratic
platform, that the national treasury has
an existing surplus of over 500, 900, 900,
says:
If it is the desire of the people
that there shall never be surplus in the
national or state treasures, that condi-
tion can be secured by placing the Dem
ocratic party in power. This its former
history has made certain Some of us
remember that in Wisconsin while that
party was in control, there never was a
surplus; and tina, state certificates Of
Indebtedness we've hawked about the
streets, and holders were glad to get rs
cents on the dollar for them. Such was
the condition of affairs when the state
government was passed oyer to the Re
publicans by the strong voice of the
people. In the national government
matters were even worse. The Demo-
cratic party passed over to the Repub-
licans an unholy war that had been
brought on by its Encouragement, with
an empty treasury and a ruined credit
The bonds of the United States bearing a
high rate of interest were worth but SO
cents on the dollar, in market, apd dull
at that. The Republicans have encoun-
tered the enormous expenses of this war
they inherited from Democratic misrule,
revived the credit OF the country to the
highest standard-its 3-per cent. bonds
command premium in all markets, it's
debts are all promptly paid, and the
Democrats complain that there is in the
treasury a surplus of 800, 900, 900!
This excellent condition of affairs in
the country is made the subject of COM
plaiut in the party platform. No such
complaint will eyer be made if Demo-
Gratis should acquire power.

The Pail Mall Gazette, of London,
speaking of Mr.. Blaine, says:

But wherever he can he will GUST us
from the position we hold; wherever an
opportunity offers he will use it to the
uttermost, to replace our influence and
our trade by the influence and trade of
the United States, and he will regard it
as his chief object to promote the great
American Confederacy under the @gis
of the government at Washington. which
would tend to increase the export trade
of the United States at the expense of
Great Britain.

have no terrors for any true American.
