THE APPLE ORCHARD.
Thirty ght Brief Rules for the Care of
 an Apple Orchard.


 For successful orcharding, there are many requisites to be observed which arc given in extended articles, and which on account of their length the in. experienced are apt to overlook. They may therefore be more useful if con dcnsed in the following thirty eight brief rules:
 I. Select a good soil, such as will raise good farm crops.
 ?. Mako it mellow at once, or with previous mollowing crops.
 8. lIillsidcs of the rocky places are admissible only in ease plenty of barn manure can be had for annual top. dressing.
 4 See that the land has good natural or artificial drainage.
 !. Choose young and vigorous trees, not over two years old from the graft.
 6. See that ample roots are secured in digging-enough to stifTen tho tree without stalking, and give ready growth.
 :. Avoid large, overgrown or stunted trees, which have short roots mutilated by digging.
 &, Remember that a good supply of roots is more important than straight stems or handsome heads.
 g. Procure wcll.pruyed standard vari- cites, and not new laudod sorts.
 10. If trees from a distance are partly dry when received, bury them for a week, top and all, in d finely pulverized moist soil, to restore them.
 II. Before setting out, dig holes broad enough to receive all the roots without bending.
 12. Usc no manure, except on the sur. face after setting, or in the remote parts of large holes.
 F. In setting out, spread the roots out equally on all sides, at their full length, and fill in comractly fine mel low earth.
 II. After set, shorten back the long shoots and thin out where too thick, giving neat, even, moderate head.
 l5. Always shorten back before the buds swell and never when partly or wholly in leaf
 l6, Keep the ground for several feet around tho newly-set trees clean and mellow all summer,
 IT. Keep the ground cultivated over the whole surface for six or eight years after transplanting; after which allow grass to grow only in case good annu- al or biennial top dressing of manure can be given.
 IS. As the roots of growing trees are as long as their height avoid the mis- take of spading or maturing narrow cir cles around the foot of the stem, but cultivate the whole surface
 10. Preserve a smooth clear stem by promptly removing all suckers.
Nevada County picayune., 1890-06-04
----------------- HERE AND THERE.

Never permit tree or vine to over bear. A tree or vine that is almost breaking with it's load of fruit, may be profitable one.
 Cats and young chicks do not thrive in the same yard. The feline nature gets the better of the best pussy and your chicks will disappear. Keep the cats away from the temptation.
 Stop croaking, is the advice given by newspaper to farmers. Yes, stop croaking; consent to being robbed and let the sheriff turn you out of doors. Don't grumble; be happy.
 Always be careful about fire. In this connection it is well to advise watchfulness of the lamps to keep them in good order. It was an exploded lamp that set fire to Secretary Tracy's house.
 Recent experiments prove that salt is a necessity for fowls, and that when it is supplied them they keep in better condition and lay larger number of eggs. Salt is one of the constituents of eggs and must be provided.
 As general rule, for the matching of chickens 2l days arc required; for cartridges, 2i days; for pheasants, 25 days; for Guinea hens, 25 days; for com. mon ducks, 2S days; for pea fowls, 2s days; for turkeys, 2S days for Barbary ducks, 30 days, and for geese 30 days,
 In planning the garden arrange so that as one crop natures the space will be occupied by another coming on. Some of the smaller and early maturing varieties can be readily grown between the rows of the larger and later would be out of she way by tho time the room is needed.
 The farmer who does not take proper care of his stock or of his farm imple- ments ought not to say much about the tariff or any other question. The man who makes speeches against the tariff and lets his moving machine rot and rust in the field, has not got hold of the biggest end of his troubles by jug-full.
 By growing clover and selling the hay or allowing the second crop to ma ture and selling the seed the land can be impoverished nearly or quite as rap idly as in the growing of almost any other crop, as it can be grown so con tinuously as to make the land clover sick.
 An exchange advises tho farmer to keep a strict account with his orchard and garden He can't do it. for if he did hc would have to give it credit for the doctors bills which would perhaps have to be paid if he did not have an orchard and garden, and he can not tell exactly how much they would be.
 If you find cake in the bag of COW 1t is incipient garget; milk her as clean as possible and bathe tho udder with hot water applied with large cloth, and hold the same to the udder, espe- ,ially to the part affected, for thirty seconds at time. If at the next milk. ing a stringy substance comes with the milk draw it out; this is not pus, but cheese; not hurtful to the milk, as it will catch in the straineT. Repest secesssrY.

The Burden of Taxation.

It is estimated that the annual pro- duction of the farms of Tennessee are equal to thirty per cent. of their value. If this be true, then the farms of the State pay taxes equal to about five per cent. of the value of their annual prod ucts Now if our corporations are will ing to stand along with our farmers iu bearing the burdens of taxation, we sug- gest to the Legislature, as means of avoiding all possibility of double taxa tion, that it pass an act taxing all cor porations five per cent, of the gross earnings of their business in the State of Tennessee. What will our corpora. tions say to that? -Clarksville Demo- crat

20. Clover and sowed grain snoulc never be allowed in young orchards: grass, if kept short and annually top dressed with manure, is admissible hood crops, es corn and potatoes, dc well; and clear culture is best
 2l. In well-managed orchards mucl pruning is unnecessary, and when per formed, do but little in any one year thin the outside of the head and not the center, and paint all wounds.
 22. Undesirable fruits, or those proved unfitted for the climate, may be changed to good ones by grafting; several gratis, spread over the heads, will soon form bearing trees For large trees, divide the grating through two or three sea- sons.
 23. For home use, set ous good varie- ties enough to keep up 8 constant sue cession from the midsummer kinds throughout autumn and winter, and O. long-keepers to last through spring til. the ripening of strawberries
 24. For market. choose such as bear heavy crops of salable apples and plant orchards only in such places as they succeed well in, and find ready sale at the most profitable times of the year.
 25. If trees are received when frozen, they will be killed if thawed in air; but if compactly buried in mellow soil be. fore thawing, they will not be injured.
 %. Mice are excluded in winter by smooth, compact conical mound of soil around the stem of each tree, to be lev. eled again in spring.
 ln nH int life, and bearing by top-dressing well circle two rods in diameter about tn em, and pruning out dead shoots.
 2S. As soon as young orchard is set out, register the varieties in an account book, otherwise the label being lost be- fore bearing, loss and confusion of names will result.
 go. Tools for cultivating orchards without tearing up roots are the Acme smoothing harrow, shares and disk har- row.
 30. Destroy codling moths by destroy ing with paris green and london purple, and punch borers in their holes with flexible wire.
 31. Farmers who allow cattle to break into their young orchards should re- member that fences are as important as manure,
 32 Planting in thin soil, setting trees, hurriedly and allowing weeds and grass possession of hard and crusted earth. will not accumulate silver and gold.
 B. Planting large nursery trees, caro- lessly dug with short and mutilated roots, will prove unprofitable.
 B. Shortening back the heads of new' ly-transplanted trees after the opening of the leaves, instead of before tho swelling of the buds, checks the growth and seriously iniures them.
 35. Allowing weeds and grass to grow in young orchards invites mice and stunts the trees.
 36. Permitting suckers to grow around the trunks and those making wasteful brush-heap spells the trees.
 g. Setting young orchards in mead ows and grain fields often destroys them.
 3S. Pruning too much at time in- stead of a light pruning in successive years, if needed, injures the vigor Of treeS-Country Gentleman.

The Grottoes.

The silence and quiet about the City
of the Grottoes have been so profound
of late that the project had died out of
public thought. Some time ago such a
scheme was mentioned. and for a while
talked of. But as no particular mention
had almost lost sight of the original sug
gestion. Seeing in the Rockingham
Register a statement last week that
Mais. Hotchkiss and Bell had taken OPP
tions on nearly all of the lands between
the Grottoes and Port Republic, we
made inquiry as to what progress was
being made in the proposed improve
ment. To our surprise we learned that
the Company now has at work on the
Abbott iron property, which they own,
about fifty hands, and that the develop
ments are entirely satisfactory; that they
control in fee about $4,000 acres of land
and have options on other properties,
which give them holdings large enough
for all the purposes of city and a large
industrial centre Not only this, but
that they have ample money to go on
with their improvements whenever they
have matured their plans. From what
we have learned, when the time comes
for movement, it will be made on a com
prehensive line, and proceed with an
energy commensurate with the impor-
tance and magnitude of the underta
ing. So look out for the new city of the

Senator Blair

Until this session of Congress, Senator
H. w. Blair had discussed his educa-
tional bill to the edification of the pub
lie. He has furnished many important
facts and logical arguments why the gov
eminent should aid in public education
But now it seems that he has lost his
temper. In the Senate a few days ago,
he rallied at the press because 1T had not
been more liberal in publishing what he
had to say. Probably there has been
remissness in this, but the Senator
should remember that newspapers are
private property, and their conductors
think they know best what will enhance
it's value. Newspaper men study daily
the trend of public sentiment. They
know or think they know, when their
readers have enough of a discussion.and
when that is the case they generally
regulate the matter they publish accor-
dinghy. The Blair bill has been .ex-
haustively discussed by tongue and pen.
If, when the bill was called up a
vote had been demanded, it would
doubtless have received the approval of
"a majority of the Senators. That is all
that ought to have been asked. 1t GER
tainly does not improve the situation
for the Senator to speak so harshly of
the press, and assign to its conductors mo-
tives, which il true, would certainly
destroy their influence and indeed make
them unfit for the duties imposed upon
them.
The Senator should be more charita

Important Decision.

The Supreme Court of Appeals on the
Goth rendered decision in the case of
Blanton VS.. the Richmond, Fredericks-
burg s. Potomac Railway Company. to
enjoin a condemnation of private lands
for the proposed belt line railroad, and
the Richmond. Fredericksburg & Poto-
mac Railway Company. against Blanton
to dissolve an injunction prevent
ing the company from 80 condemnfng.
The question at issue was the chartered
rights of the company and the decision
of the court was in every particular in
favor of the company. 1t is proposed
to construct a railroad from a point on
this line north of Richmond. through
Henrico county and crossing the James
river west OF the city pnmp-house, con-
burg road near Manchester. The decis-
ion settles litigation which caused a
good deal of feeling and attracted much
attention. The belt line is nearly com
the decree of the court, will speedily be
finished
1t is claimed by lawyers that the decis=
ion settles the point that under the gem
eral law any railroad in the State can
construct a branch line fifty miles in
length. This view of the scope of the
opinion of the court cannot fail to excite
interest and encourage the construction
of short lines Of railroad throughout the
State BY awaiting of it, either the Ches-
apeake & Ohio railroad, the Valley road,
or the Shenandoah Valley railroad com
pany. could build a branch road to the
anthracite coal fields of Augusta county,
at Staunton with the two
former or either of them, or at Waynes-
boro with the latter.
This is a very important phase of the
q question, and may result in building
railroad to open and accommodate the
coal and iron interests of North River
Gan
