they cannot. But this is the opinion of
all experts who are called upon to pro-

the trip to Europe can be lessened to three

Orchard and Farming en- Same Field.

We recommend planting, rows OF
apples, pears, cherries or plums (say
ten to fifteen feet apart in rows
through ordinary corn or grain fields
in the farm, leaving wide space be-
tween the rows-say four or six rods
is enough space to permit plowing
and cultivating for crops one way
without much if any annoyance from
-she=srees, ,~aaa -saaes-eaough t. permit
the farm crops to be grown. We as
sure that this is good plan if you
can spare the land for pasturing-of
course no cattle can run in such a
field.
We shall not be surprised to see this
method of orcharding adopted when
its advantages are better known. The
tree will thrive better and bear finer
specimens when thus exposed to the
sunshine and air on ell sides, with
ample room for roots to gather nour-
ishment. All have observed that all
orchard trees standing on the outskirts
are larger and more beautiful than
those near the centre, also that fruit
trees standing alone give better results
than in crowded orchard.
By the method proposed the trees
would interfere but little with grow
ing farm crops, and they would receive
good culture in preparing for the corn
crops. No seed should be grown
nearer the trees than four feet, leav-
ing space each side the rows for cult,
vation, with one horse and cultivator
When IN bearing more space shopld
be left along the rows.-Green's Ffuii

Ensilage in England.

A fine display of ensilage formed "a
part of the recent Smithfeld, Eng,
livestock show. There were $50 en-
tries from all parts of the kingdom,
and representing ensilage from corn,
clover, various grasses, hopvines and
other substances. The specimens were
received in sample boxes two feet in
length, SO that when sawn asunder "a
clean sample of cubic foot might be
untouched, while the dual specimen
could be pulled to pieces and other
wise examined. The specimen of hop
vine ensilage is believed to be the first
of the kind ever made. The silos were
filled with rye and rye grass, with a
little clover at the top, meadow grass,
clover sweepings and hopvines. With
the exception Of the contents Of one
silo, the whole of the produce was cut
with steam chaff cutter, the hop
vines being cut two inches in length.
The ensilage turned out sweet, and on
some being given to cattle, they ate it
greedily, Notwithstanding they had
but short time before had their mid
day meal.

farmfrs' Column.
Give fools their gold Il knaves their power
Let fortunes bubbles rise and fail;
Who sows a field or trains flower,
Or plants a tree. Is more than all.
Invest on the Home Farm.

Many ruralist would greatly aug
ment his prosperity by devoting more
means to permanent and other i'm
provements upon his farm, Somebody
has said, and we think sensibly, that
one of the greatest leaks on the farm
is the practice of robbing it to get
money to put in savings bank. In
such bank of deposit four or five
per cent. interest may be secured--if
the cashier doesn't happen to be opera
ting in Wall street or speculating else
where-while the same money put
back on the farm in the way of in
proved stock, machinery, better build
ings, understanding, fences, orchards,
etc, would, after very few years, re-
turn dividends of fifty per cent. Money
in the bank don't generally show un-
til it comes up in the administrator
hands, but in good stock and we'll cul-
tivated farms will give returns speed
sly and with certainty.
There is another way in which some,
il not many, farmers ''mlss it, by in
vesting in the wrong place. For ex-
ample, many grasping and ambitious
farmer lives penuriously, depriying
his family of a decent home and
various comforts, in order to purchase
more acres. Possessed with the insane
idea that he must Gown all the land
that joins him. or as much thereof as
possible, he governs himself accord
ingly. To accomplish this selfish pur-
pose he lives in the old house long af-
ter it is unfit for occupancy, makes
slaves of himself and family and neg
lects the proper education Of his chill
dren. Were he to invest the money
thus boarded to buy more land (Which
he does not need) upon his home farm
his rural home and its occupants =
himself and family would soon be the
gamers in both prosperity and happi-
ness. By expending his hard earned
and miserlykept surplus in improving
his farm, stock, ETC, and making home
comfortable, and attractive, he would
not only be quite as. prosperous. but
enjoy life far better aud keep his chill
dren from leaving the roof tree, dis
gusted with slavish, miserly mode
of farming, to seeking other and un-
certain employment.

Useful Things to Know.

Housekeepers are very often greatly
troubled and perplexed by mildew
from damp closets and from rust. By
putting an earthen bowl or deep plate
full of quick lime into the closet, the
lime will absorb the dampness, and
also sweeten and disinfect the place.
Rats, mice and many bugs that are
apt to congregate in damp places have
a dislike to lime. AS often as the lime
becomes sIaked throw it on the COM
post heap if in the country, or into the
ash barrel if in the city.
