the latter remain small and the fruit
coarse and insipid and more susceptible
to frost. After waiting thirteen or four
teen years the fruit on trees grown from
the seed is often found worthless, but
trees grown from cuttings are true and
constant and will bear about four years
sooner than q Seeding. Cuttings should
be taken from good Seeding trees, the
wood to be of about two years growth !;
place them in nursery by themselves
where water plenty. In twoyears they
can be set out where they are to remain"
We confess that this is an entirely new
idea to us, we have never seen orange
trees grown from ''cuttings", nor can we
see the advantage of propagating them
in that manner. The writer abovespeaks
OF trees eleven years. old having borne
two crops. Any Seeding tree with ordi-
nary attention would have done better
than that.
AS to propagating for variety, this is
certainly done more satisfactory from
budding.

when she at once regained her health. The
colt was weekling andcompletely idiot
ic, not having even sense enough to eat.
The mare was again bred to the same
horse, with an exact repetition of the
same phenomena, except that the result
ing foal had more sense. The mare was
bred to other horses for years with no
such results; her after colts were fine. 1t
seems to me that there could be no other
cause for these facts than some want of
affinity between these two animals Ny
theory is that there must be affinity, in
order that the male element may furnish
it's share of vital energy or nerve force,
Or in other words it's share of that won
derous thing we call life, and that if there
is want of affinity or insufficient amount
of pollen to give this vital energy to be
expected from the male. it causes fear
full strain on thevital energy of the moth
er in trying to furnish from her store for
the offspring.
Then il we apply these facts to our or
chards we have still further proofs that
it is safest and best to have the different
varieties of the same species growing in
alternate rows of kind, when such spe-
cies have perfect flowers, and with an oc-
casional male plant when the flowers are
polygamous; and OF course male and fe-
male when the flowers are dipcious. And
still more is it necessary to have different
varieties of the same species near togeth-
er, of fruits having monecious flowers, or
such as have the male and female separ-
ate on different parts of the one tree, as
with our walnut, chestnut, filberts, oaks,
ETC., for the reason as before said. The
flowers of such trees seldom bloom at the
same time, the pollen ripening and vast
ing before thefemale flowers open; then il
several varieties are blooming near, some
early, some, late, all will be pollenized.-

Circumventing the Cut Worm.

VA NAAoAAASS oAAN SUO w Va AA'
All of us, or at least all of us who have
made or attempted to make gardens, are
we'll acquainted with his majesty, the cut
worm. We have fought him tooth and
nail from the risingof the sun even to the
going down thereof, but in the long run
the measley thing has generally won the
battle.
Mr.. W. III. Thompson, of Crystal
Springs, Miss, tells how he circumvented
the little rascal as follows:
Zone of the most despicable enemies of
the garden is the loathsome cut worm.
He has withstood many efforts at his de-
structiOn and still moves on, Sin theeven
tenor of his way" devouring young cab
bage and tomatoes with his wonted vo-
racity, shrinking only from the rays of
After charging his forces morning after

effect of losing two settings of cabbage
plants on the same bed the present spring,
| finally determined to renew my plants
and try barricade, kind of breast
work; and, as Old Hickory entrenched his
men behind cotton bales at the far
famed Battle of Orleans, so surrounded
each little plant with handful of cotton

unlike the pestiferous bud-worm, the
cut worm coming out at night moves
along the surface of the ground in quest
OF some young plant suited to his taste,
and when it is found he helps himself and
then hides himself in the dirt Immediately
beside the plant hehas destroyed, coming
out at night as long as the leaves and
tender stem of the plant lasts, but when
these are exhausted he migrates again

when he again takes uphi abode. Thus
it may be seen how the cOtton seed con.
stituted q barrack for the plant. The
worm is a clumsy, awkward fellow, and
either cannot or will not crawl over the
pile OF seed, always passing around it,
hence he does not meet up with cab
bage in his Reorganization, and is forced to
settle upon some less succular wild weed
"The experiment that have made is q
small one, but 1T is quite convincing. 1t
would be quite tedious to place seed
around several thousand plants, but in
view of the fact that the seed make one
of the very best fertilizers, it would even
then be practical. 1t is certainly advisa-

Growing Orange Trees from Cuttings

at may not be generally known that
the orange and lemon can be grown from
cuttings with very little trouble, yet such
is the case. In my orchard are eleven
year-Old trees from cuttings that have
borne fruit for two seasons. They are
very thrifty, and bid fair to become as
large as the Seeding trees from which
they were taken. I prefer Seeding to
grated trees. The former attain larger

which it is hard to show up practical
facts that may be seen to be true at a
glance. But it may prove OF value to
place on record such seeming facts as /
have observed in degeneration of plants
and animals; though in this line there is
a great difference in animal and vegeta-
BILE life. AS before said, the two kingdoms
of nature animal life and vegetable life
run in parallel lines all through their
generative systems and processes; there
fore | insist again that facts observed in
one division apply in o certain degree to
the other. The main difference between
the two is that in animal life the mother
has generally a choice, a personal choice,
OF what male individual shall be the faith
err Of her offspring. In vegetable life on
the contrary it seems impossible that the
female parent could have a choice. And
the same is true with many species OF an
finals and the lower, Darbarous and more
savage races of mankind.
Twill give first observed examples in
vegetable life, where there seems to me
to be not the least possible doubt to my
mind but what plants that were forced to
accept pollen that was not acceptable, or
was scanty, caused a loss of vigor, health
and vitality in them.
Many years ago l planted, isolated
Il f1soo Of 81

cana species. They grew finely until they
bloomed and then lost their vigor, and
remained so for several years, giving no
perfect fruit at all, only q few diseased
specimens of half SIZE The season that
these trees we're planted | grated many
seedlings with it, among a great lot of
seedlings; these grew, came into bearing
young, and bore large crops OF fine, large
perfect fruit, the trees remaining in per-
feet vigor and health. Three or four
years after planting the three trees men
toned above, planted four trees of an
other variety of the same species near
them on the south, in the same row. SO
soon as these blOOmed the tree nearest
them bore that season fine crop of fruit
and the next one to it a half crop, and
both regained their vigor and continued
in VigOr for years, growing as much in
one season, as they had done in two or
three before they had q chance to receive
other pollen. These trees had ten times
the chance for thrifty growth and fruit
crops that those of the same variety had
where they were grated amongst the
seedlings, where of course they could get
O variety of pollen.
In another case | had one5 tree of an
other species (P. Maratima) planted iso-
lated on cultivated ground, where it ma
tured but very few and imperfect fruits !;
these weresmall and hard, and seemed to
fall from the trees beforematurity. Some
of this variety was grated into cluster
of thickly growing plum seedlings where
the graft fruited abundantly, with their
fruit much larger and better in quality
than on the isolated tree. These are the
only marked examples have noticed in
vegetable life, but they are doubtless very
much more common than we have any
idea of. 1t seems to me that there is no
possible way in which the action of those

SPENCER ON PUNISHMENT.

Spencer lays il down as general rule
that all punishment should be in the line
OF che offense. Hy punishment he means
everything that is done to correct wrong
conduct He claims for this method Of
management the special merit of reform
stive tendency. II gives the offender a
motive, and places the means within his
reach by which he may accomplish his
Cun reformation. II has a strong moral
tendency No restraint comes from with
out. No rules are to be kept and no one
il to he feared. The whole tendency ia
toward hige sense of right aud towar /
development of moral courage TO keep
in tie path Of duty He finds his posi-.
ton fortified in nature. Its natural feat
ures make 1t all the more effective.
The pernicious custom of keeping pu-
pits after school or % depriving them Of
the periods Of recreation. On account Of .
failure to prepare their lessons must be
substituted by the deprivation OF class
privileges. The former is not only for.
eign 10 the offense. but it creates dis
gust for school work. II is directly an
tagonistic TO the ends aud aims OF educa-
ton. 1t defeats the object for WHICH the
pupils attend school and creates in him
a sour and norose spirit. II creates in
the child no high motive, and fails to place
within his reach any OF the means Of re-
formation.
An abuse OF tue privileges Of the play
ground should result in being deprived
Of those privileges. There is no child
hut that can see the justice OF such a
coarse. Even il he believes that he is
innocent of the charges brought against
him, he will be able TO understand how
reasonable II is that such punishment
should follow actual cases Of sucn con-
duct This leaves the offender to debate
with himself as to what he shall do in
the future. He can accuse no one of an
arbitrary means, nor OF reaping revenge
for real or imaginary wrongs. He is
Thus taught to respect his own rig hts az
well as those Of Others.
And so with every wrong act however
grave or however trifiing, he app lies the
natural remedy and reaps the result which
should be the object Of all punishment

home, in the school, on the street. Tenn
pering the remedy to the offense. he
would apply it to every case of error due
to carslessness or wilfulness. The spirit
in which the punishment is administered
should give unmistaksble evidence Of the
true object to be attained.
