1t has a smart, snappy sound to say
'prune when your knife is sharp" and
for such pruning as may be easily done
with knife, it is well enough. But for
the larger limbs that must often be am
putated, pruning when your saw is
sharp will not answer always and every
where. Where all trees are so hardy
that cut, however large, never black
ems or sbleeds," ono may prune at any
time with safety, while trees are not in
leaf. But in the northern tier Of states
there are many trees planted that are
more or less injured in their wood by
hard winters. Such trees are best pruned
after the severe weather is over, but
then as early as possible, so that the
wound will get pretty dry before the sap
starts. This will not always prevent
bleeding" when tree has been much
hurt by low temperature, but it is the
best that can be done for them. Garden

The spring months are trying upon
sheep Of all ases. but especially 20 upon
cwrs and lambs. Consequently the eyre
stock at this time Of the year require the
most careful management. They must
not on any account be allowed to lose
their summer condition. Their natural
food Ia the dead Of winter is, as rule,
not sufficient 70 maintain that condition,
but very little extra feeding viii be nee
essary this year, owing to the excep-
tional mildncss OF the season.
The object Of tho experienced shep-
herd is to prevent the ewes from losing
without greatly gaining flesh. When
lambing sets in they ought to be healthy,
fresh and vigorous. Our own expert
ence has been that the ewes which were
in 1.-THE condition acquitted themselves
better at the critical moment, as well as
afterwards, than animals which carried
more mutton. As rule, they not only
produced bigger and stronger lambs, but
they took better care Of them after
wards, while the slightest enhancement
of their rations after tho lambs turned
up tt0cu ttlchAA S<&Atl} ONcA tt1eik WEAK
ness, and kept them going in capital
form
Ewes should be allowed full liberty
There is nothing healthier than pasture
grass. II thought desirable, little hay
and green grain-say .one-half pound Of
each-may be given, along with small
allowance Of turnips The supply of
roots should be regulated by tho condi-
ton of the pastures, and also to some
extent according to the breed of sheep
on the farm.
There is nothing more necessary than
proper shelter. All ewes require protec-
ton from the cold blasts and rains, espe-
cially when early lambs are bred. Album
dance of housing accommodation should
be available ON every breeding farm, as
serious loss Of young lambs frequently
occurs from exposure. Then 1t is ex-
tremely important that the shepherd
should give tho lambing fold his most
anxious attention. A timely hand may
be the means of saving life, as the ewes
are not always able for the task them
selves Besides. the ewes udders must
be attended to. Scarcity Of milk cannot
be too soon rcmedied. This can readily
be done by enriching the ewes diet, but
meanwhile the lamb must be looked
after, lest it should DO inadequately fed.

Ordinarily the falling down or lodging
of wheat while in green state arises
from the fact that the soil is SO rich that
in favorable growing season the plant
is pushed forward SO rapidly that the
straw is not strong enough to support it
self when weighted down with rain or
violently agitated by wind. When the
growth is too luxuriant no better remedy
i, known than to feed off the wheat in
tn fail, winter or carly spring at times
wiiea the ground is dry or frozen, so that
the plants will not be injured by the
tranpling of the animals. Caution is
required in this respect, and the pastur-
ing is best done by light animals, such as
calves or sheep.

A meeting of the investors in the
proposed Upper Monongahels Riv-
err Railroad and coal and coke en-
terprises was held at Barnum's Ho-
tel, Baltimore, Monday. The
financial and other details are com
pleted, and on April 18th the let
ting of contracts for construction
work will be made. The thirty
miles of railroad from Fairmo:t to
Clarkspurg are to be built this year,
together with 500 coke ovens.
On last Thursday morning, Mrs.
Belle Stockman, a sister of Samuel
E. Williamson, residing near Spring
Mills in this county, committed sui
eide by cutting her throat with a
razor. Itseems that on the Sunday
morning before, she was seen in her
room by her little daughter, with a
razor in her hand, and upon being
noticed by the child, put it in her
dress pocket, and afterwards in a
small valise During the Wednes-
day night preceding the morn
ing Of her death, she and her
daughter who slept together pass
ed a restless and wakeful night.
When morning came she left the
child after asking what the latter
would like for breakfast, and was
seen alive no more. The
girl becoming alarmed went in
search of her mother, and not find
ing her, told Mr.. Samuel f. William
son, who upon search found her in
the garrett dead Two gashes were
cut in her throat, one extending
from ear to car, had severed the
( jugular wen. The razor, the in.
strument of her death lay by her
side -Martinsburg Statesman.
A few days ago Thomas Woods
who lives on the Donnelly fork OF
Mud river, in Lincoln county, sent
word to his stepmothcr, Mrs.
Woodson Woods, that one of her
neighbors across the hill was sick
and wanted her to come imme-
diately. He concealed himself be.
hind tree near the path to await
her coming, and when she APP.
preached, stepped out and fired a
revolver full at her left breast, the
bullet taking effect just below the
nipple. She fell to the ground,
and, to make sure Of his work, he
shot her again in the neck, and az
forwards dragged her to cliff near
by and dropped her to the ground
below. Shortly afterwards She re.
covered sufficiently to give an
alarm, which was heard by some
men getting out cross-ties. They
went to her assistance, accompa.
MED by Woods, who professed en-
tire ignorance of the matter. She
was perfectly conscious, related the
story of the shooting and died
shortly afterwards. Woods is now
in custody. The only known cause
for the crime was a disagreement
between him and his stepmother in
regard to the division of some prop
erty belonging to his father.
