How the Thoughtful Mother Can Save Many Dollars in the Course of a Year-Diagram for Remodel
 Ing Hosiery.

As the small leak in the great dam eventually causes the structure to give out, so the little inroads made upon the family purse often cause a finan- cial wreck
 It may be but a few cents here and a few cents there, but frequently the economy or extravaganza of two fami- lies consists in just this difference of expenditure for little things
 A mother can purchase good hosiery for herself in either heavy or light weight goods for the same price she will be obliged to pay for her children's. It does not pay for her to mend her own to any great eXte mt, but instead to cut them over for the children.
 If it is known among the aunts and cousins that their old hosiery is availa- ble for this purpose, they will talk oar ticular delight in viewing their worn ones, and you will be rewarded by all ways have working stock on hand.
 We well know that this occupation is scorned by many mothers but we firm ly believe it is because they do not know just how to go to work and make an easy success You know what de- light there always is in a success if it is not attended with ''fussing'' and anX- iety.

 A SMALL hen will lay fully as large eggs as a large oue and at the same time will require less room.
 WHEN eggs alone are wished there is no necessity for keeping roosters; the hens will lay fully as well without them.
 l IT is often the case on the farm at this time, when stock is being fattened for market, that the hens will get too fat 1 to lay.

 LORD TENNYsoN was morbidly sensi- tive to all criticism of his work. An unllind word in the obscurest news paper would literally cut him to the heart, it is said. At the same time he was curious to hear everything said or written about him, and he had a great relish for flattery.

 Producers.
 B. Hathaway writes to the Orange Judd Farmer: The idea of putting the apple tree to the double use of produc- ing fruit and at the same time support ing fence was conceived later than that of using forest trees for this purpose. 1t has, therefore, only re- gently found its practical illustration on the writer's farm. A small portion of this fence, some eighty rods long in all, is here figured. This is probably the only representation of this kind of fence in the country, the idea of it hay ing originated with the writer, so far as know. It is best adapted for the permanent division of fields, though I have planted over one hundred rods of these trees by the road side for this purpose. To these no fence has yet been attached, though the trees are now large enough to bear. The apple

 trees were planted too closely, being only ten feet apart; while one rod would have been better, that being near enough for the fence, and the large distance would insure greater longevity and productiveness to the trees. The variety of apple for this purpose shou be chosen from among the most hardy no less than for the value of its fruit, and those of medium size in growth are preferred. For Michigan the Northern Spy seems well suited to this use, being of free growth,
