OF moisture and how the manure is applied.
If the manure is well worked into the soil
there will be no liability of injury from a
heavy application. The difficulty really is
that the manure is spread over too great a
surface, not enough being used.

Ground hone-nnt bone meal-applipd
the rate OF 600 pounds per acre on an Of
chard eight years ago still shows its effect
on the trees. This is because the PARTICLES
of bone are given off slowly, the large
application providing supply for years in
succession. A combination OF 900 pounds
OF ground bone and 20 bushels OF unleached
wood ashes the ashes to be applied every
year should enable the orchard to bear
large crops, provided clover crop is grown
in the orchard and plowed under once every
four years.

The borers will begin to attack peach
trees in May and the apple trees in June.
One remedy is to apply cold tar around the
trunk of each tree digging away the earth
six or eight inches, and after the applica-
ton returning the earth to the tree, extend
ing the tar a foot or more above the level
of the ground This should be done as
soon as the condition of the ground permits,
repeating the application so as to cover
every portion OF the tree. Do not use kero-
sene on peach trees. If preferred, the trees
may be wrapped with tarred paper, which
will be held in position by the earth or
may be fastened with string.

If it is proper to destroy an animal in
order to prevent the spread of disease it is
equally important that a diseased tree be
cut down and burned When blight attacks
a pear tree it is risk to attempt to save
it, as the disease will soon appear on other
trees if there is a delay in stamping out the
difficulty. BY prompt action in sacrificing
a tree, years of work may be avoided and
an orchard saved from destruction. The
"yellows' in peaches should receive atten-
ton promptly, cutting down the tree on
the first signs of disease.

spring. About 100 pounds per acre is sutli-
cient, and the cost is but trite Plaster
has been found excellent on corn also as it
attracts moisture, and, although not
regarded as fertilizer, yet on some fields
where plaster has been used it gave an
early start to corn and the leaves had
deeper tinge of green than where no plaster
in New Jersey last year showed that it can
be used on some soils with advantage

Long rows can he cultivated more easily
and at less cost for labor than short lows,

OPPOSED TO YOUTHFUL MAR.
 RiAGES.

The editor of the Union, of St. Charles, Minn., is bitterly opposed to youthful marriages and is as sarcastic as he Is bitter. His com parisons in an editorial are so ex- tremely facetious, we give space to the article that our readers may enjoy laugh:
 Nine-tenths of the unhappy mar riages are the result of green human calves being allowed to turn at large in the society pastures with out any yoke on them. They
 marry and have children before they do mustaches, they are fathers of twins before they are proprietors of two pairs of pants, and the little girls they marry are old women
 before they are twenty years old. Occasionally one of these gosling marriages turns out all right, but is cles IF case of luck. If there was a law against young galoots sparkling and marrying before they have cut all their teeth, we sup pose the little cusses would evade it in some way, but there ought to be sentiment against it. It is time enough for these bantams to buy a bundle of laths to build hen house But they see 8 girl who looks cunning, and they are afraid there is not going to be girls enough to go around, and they be- gin to get in their work real spry, and before they are aware of the sancity of the marriage relation they are hitched for life, ard be- fore they own a cook stove or bed stead they have to get up in the night and go after a doctor, so that tEcy run them selves out of breath and abuse the doctor because he will not run too; and when the doctor arrives there Is not enoght linen in the hou.e to wrap up doll baby.
