Hardy Fruit-Trees.

The following Report from the cold
North" taken from the Canadian
HOrticulturist, gives report in regard
to the iron-clad, or supposed iron-clad
apples, which we think will be found
substantially correct by other expert
mentors in pomology:
Another year having completed its
course, l herewith hand in my report
of last winters inroads on my already
too limited list of "hardy fruit-trees."
The past season was quite as severe as
any we are likely to have, and proved
to be a real test-winter for our locality.
Notwithstanding the intensity of the
cold, the mercury freezing in the bulb
of the thermometer, the Wealthy, Ouch
ess of Oldenburg, Yellow Transparent,
Tetofsky, Scott's Winter, Peach of
Montreal and Alexander with me all
came through without the loss of a
single bud. hardly know what to say
of Magog Red Streak, as it was some
what affected, but still it is fruiting,
and l have good hopes that it may yet
come out all right. l fear, however,
that we shall be obliged to strike the
Mcintosh Red from the list that will
endure temperature of forty degrees
below zero, as last season proved them
to be among the list of almost hardy
enough varieties. 1t is only fair to
state that none of these in my orchard
are dead, but, with one single exception,
all are more or less injured. Perhaps
we should give it another trial before
we discard it altogether. The follow
ing, however, went completely, viz,
Mann, Stump, Snow, Hastings and
Haas. l might mention that at the
meeting of our local association,
last week, very favorable reports
were given in of the Pewaukee and
Walbridge.

ing. A good agricultural paper is the
cheapest, most convenient and most
readily effective means through which
any farmer, young or old, can gain in
formation concerning many points in
agriculture, and keep himself well
posted concerning agricultural news.
Inducing farmers boys to read such a
paper is QUE of the most effective
modes of exciting or increasing their
interest in farming affairs. A thought
full farm boy of eighteen or twenty,
with fair common school education,
can learn very much of interest and
value by giving his evenings for a
month to such little books as Thomp-
sons "Science in Farming" or War
rington's Chemistry of the Farm"
These each can be had for one dollar
If there were much demand for them
they ought not to cost more than half
of this. Following the study of one of
these, Masters Plant Life on the
Farm " might be read, although l do
not count it so valuable as the others
for this purpose. For more mature
minds, with some training in careful
reading, know of nothing superior to
Professor Johnson's How Crops
Grow and How Crops Feed"
The Vermont watchman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1883-1911, 1885-12-30
Agricultural Education at Home.

Professor G. E. Morrow of the Illinois
Agricultural College makes some very
sensible remarks on the above subject
in the College Bulletin. Among other
good things, he says:
Farmers are teachers. ANY boy
with common sense who lives on
farm must learn something about
farming. 1t is the duty, and ought to
be the privilege, of every farmer who
has sons with him to be their daily
teacher-not alone by his practice, i'm
portant as this, but by direct teaching.
The eye should be taught to observe
carefully; the hand to work wisely, as
well as steadily; the ears should be
made of use in learning about farming.
Talking about his business, by the
farmer, should be daily made means
of teaching his sons. 1t is not enough
simply to tell what to do, simply to an
swer questions. The questions should
be encouraged or drawn out. When
known, the reasons for doing such
things should be given. 1t will rarely
do harm to confess ignorance of such
reasons. For ten years past it has been
my privilege to give instruction in ag-
riculture to classes of young men and
boys, mainly fresh from the farms
Striking differences have been notice
able in them as to their knowledge of
the business with which they had been
connected all their lives. Many of
them have had good training in the or
binary practice, but the larger majority
have shown little evidence of training
in habits of careful observation, or in
acquiring intelligence about farming
Most have read very little about farm
matters. Reading is one of the best
means Of acquiring an education at
home; and reading about farming
may be made as profitable to the
young farmer as reading about almost
anything else. No one can, from his
own experience, learn all that is known
about farming. We do wisely to get the
experience of others, and oftentimes
we can only get much of this by read

Keeping Apples.

On this subject there is good deal
of false teaching afoat. Agricultural
editors do not all seem to have knowl-
edge enough of their own to check the
circulation of such teaching. The Farm
ers' Magazine and Rural Guide gives cur
rency to the following:
" Let barrel of winter apples freeze
solid," says an old fruit-merchant. Do
not move it or so much as touch an
apple in it with the tip of the finger.
Let it stay just where it is and thaw out
thoroughly, but gradually. Cover the
apples so they will be kept quite dark.
Thus your barrel of apples will remain
frozen solid for months, and the fruit,
if treated as above, will thaw out gently
and gradually, when the time comes.
and be plump, solid and sweet as if Just
picked" Moral-if you want your
apples to keep, freeze them as hard as
stones.
Moral-Don't do any such thing.
Apples are never benefited by freezing
and though sometimes they are not
much harmed, yet if subjected to tenn.
perature as low as zero they can never
be restored by the most careful thawing.

Agricultural Colleges.

The Home Farm says: During the
session of the National Grange at Bos-
ton we had the pleasure of an inter-
view with distinguished agricultural
educator from one of the states of the
middle West who is well acquainted
with Maine agriculture and people and
who spoke in terms of the highest
praise of our state college at Orono-or,
rather, of the work it is doing. You
have said he, down there in Maine a
mean little college-that is, your legis-
lature has dealt meanly with it, given
it pitiably small appropriations, starved
it along from year to year; it has poor
apparatus, limited means and appli-
ances for illustration and experiment,
and yet your professors and teachers
down there are wonderful men, and
they do have way of training young
man so as to get all there is in him out
of him, or to so develop him as to
make the most out of him. Your man
Fernald is remarkable teacher, and
somehow imparts real enthusiasm to
his under-teachers and all his pupils.
In fact your whole force of instructors
at Orono are superior men," The

face of the fourth plot. In almost every
case the second and third plots showed
the best results the first year, the first
and fourth being about alike. But at
the end of three years Ono more manure
being applied) these results were much
more nearly evened up, so that for a
rotation of this kind it was not very
easy to decide which way was the best.
Various crops were planted, and the
plots finally seeded to grass. Our old
friend, E. E. Andrews of Berlin, VT,

for years with the best result, believing
that manures spread upon the surface
and not narrowed so as to be thor

value by evaporation, as they are sub
jected to the scorching sun and drouth.
Nor do think that manure plowed in
at no greater depth than farmers are
accustomed to pillow is deposited below
where vegetation will be apt to find it.
Let the farmer try side by side an acre
of ground with manure plowed under

upon the surface, with all the harrow

Shall Manure BE PlOwed Under!

Some twenty years ago the Massa-
chusetts Board of Agriculture instituted
athree-years' series of tests to ascertain
the right depth to work in manure.
These were undertaken by some dozen
or more of good farmers in various
parts OF the state, the manure on the
plots being plowed in (seven to eight
inches) on the first, cross-plowed in
-four inches) on the second, narrowed
in on the third, and spread on the sur
