ROOT PRUNING.
A Means of Bringing Trees Into
Bearing.

Fruit trees Of any kind frequently
grow with great luxuriance. In this
they are usually unfruitful. No tree
commences to flower and fruit until its
vegetative exuberance has been some
what checked. Those who understand
the art Of fruit culture thoroughly can
bring these hayward trees into a
straighter line of duty by root pruning
them. 1t is effected by digging a trench
around the tree and then filling it up
again with the earth that has been
thrown out. This cutting off the ends
Of the roots causes check to the extreme
vigor, and the result is the production
OF flowers instead OF branches. The dis
lance from the trunk that the trench
should be dug will, OF course, depend
upon the age and size of the tree, as
also its ratio of luxuriance; the aim
should be to dig so as to cut off about
one-third Of its roots. The pear, as we'll
as other fruit trees, is particularly bene-
fitted by root pruning. 1t can be car
ried out any time during the fall or win
ter season. -Meehan' Monthly.

Dickens Two Failures .

Charles Dickens won immortal fame as
a novelist whose books will live as long
as the world endures, but he had two
conspicuous failures in his otherwise
successful career. That vexed question,
Is marriage failure? was in his case
most positively answered in the affirma-
tive ; his welded life was to him the rift
within the lutte. AS the editor OF daily
paper Dickens collapsed, as was manifest
from his short control OF the Daily News.
In other editorial grooves, however, he
was huge success. Curiously enough,
"Boz's" contemporary, Thackeray, met
his failure in the shape Of an editors
chair. His reign over the Cornhill was
manifestly a will-o'-the-wisp it worried
his life almost out Of him as well, as he
could think Of nothing but his magazine.

A Flouring Mill.

men convened at the court house on Monday evening, Aug. 29th, to discuss the feasibility of establishing a grist mill at Flagstaff
 Mr. ]. \. T. smith. the successful PhpniX miller, met the citizens and gave his views of the proposition. He stated in substance that he now, after what he had seen this summer. had no doubt but that wheat and barley could be grown in these mountain valleys: that he would procure several samples upon his return to Phoenix: that if the farmers would raise a sufficient quanti- ty of grain to justify the investment, he would guarantee thr building of a mill. Mr. Smith repeated with em- phasis that it would depend entirely upon the interest of the farmers and business men in the matter whether mill would be built or not. He fur that 1000 acres of grain would be suf- iicient with even Il low yield. to sup port d mill.
 While not many were presel t, vet a lively interest Was manifested. A Doll Was taken and it was found that about 3,O0O acres We're represented
 Farmers present expressed them selves as willing to agree to plant as large an acreage respectively as possi- ble. ...
 A motion then prevailed that com mission of five be appointed to take charge of the matter: two of which should be business men and the re- mainder farmers. F.. s. GOSney and Geo. Babbitt as business men We're named and w. H. Anderson, F. NJ. Livermore and w. H. Pierce as farm CTS.
 The chairman then stated that it was only a matter of earnest effort to se- cure the mill for Flagstaff. It may as well he secured next year as ten wears
