TREE PRUNING.

In pruning trees avoid cutting large
limbs from the trunk Or at large
forks. If any Of this kind are dead,
it is of course necessary to cut them
off, but if they are alive within a few
feet of the trunk, or even closer, cut
back to the live part, cover the end
with thick paint, and shoots will start
on the large stump and as they gather
vitality will renew the top, keep the
large stump alive and heal it over
In this way large wound to the
trunk or vital parts may be prevent
ed. But large limbs wholly dead
should be removed and the wound
covered with wax or thick paint.
Nest of the pruning of fruit trees
should be the taking of limb from
limb, selecting the weaker growths.
This will strengthen what is left, give
large leaves and greater sap flow to
remaining parts. Too severe prun-
ing in any single season is always in
furious because there is a healthy bal
ance of root and top that must not be
too greatly disturbed. If they are,
abnormal conditions are set up sud-
denly am the trees will be injured.
When the limb is removed, the cut
should be made with the collar; that
is, with the ring formation around the
union of the limb TO the tree, which
takes the form of the thickening col
lar. Set the pruning tool SO that the
cut is from outward inward, leaving
the collar. The wound will heal up
best if the collaris leftremaining, and
the cut is made just outside of it. The
farther north, the less pruning should
be done, and the farther south the
more is needed. Trees with open,
spreading tops Go not need pruning
SO severely.

An Unlucky POstman.

A postman belonging to the imperial
postofice at Marking was suddenly
and summarily arrested the other day
by enc of the high mandarins in that
city and thrown into the district magis-
trate's yamen to be bambooed and
cangued. Upon inquiry by the postal
authorities as TO the reason of such
arbitrary conduct it appeared that this
postman had been guilty of having de-
ivered to his accuser's yamen in the
course Of his rounds an anonymous let
ter which contained whole pages of cut
ting sarcasms accusing the receiver of
the letter of avarice, extortion. etc The
irate mandarin made the unlucky post
man responsible for the obnoxious let
ter, saying that he had no right to de-
liver such matter to his yamen The
commissioner of customs of Wuhu. who
had been notified of the affair, extri-
Gated the postman out of his difficult
ties. North China News.

OUR FARMERS.
ROUND HEADED BORER.

The round headed borer (saperda
can dide) is one of the troublesome
insects and has killed many a tree.
The eggs are deposited IN May or
June when the weather begins to get
warm, near the base of the trunk of
the apple tree. The larva eats it's
way through the outer bark to the in
ner and takes about three years to de-
velop. It works in the sapwood,
where it forms fiat, shallow cavities,
filed with sawdust- like castings.
These are often seen on the bark and
indicate where the borer is at work.
AS it reaches maturity it cuts a pas
sage upwards into the solid wood and
then it curves toward the bark. In
this channel it enters the pupa stage
about spring. When fully developed
it is an inch long and has round
head that distinguishes it from the
fat headed borer, which also affects
the apple tree.
Remedy-Examine the trees in au-
tumn, and where the sawdust like
castings indicate the presence of the
borer stiff wire may be pushed in
and the larva killed, or sometimes the
larva can be cut out with a knife.
About the first of June apply the fol-
lowing mixture to the trunk Of the
tree: One pound of hard soap, or one
quart Of soft soap in two gallons Of
water, heat to boiling and add one
pint Of crude carbolic acid; make a
second application in three weeks.
This mixture can be put on the trees
with an old scrubbing broom or brush.
Rub it we'll into the bark.

HER PORTRAIT.

&he night was warm, and the porch was wide.
And the soft wind waited the music's tune,
And youth and maid sat side by side
Meath the witching light of the summer
moon.
Said the youth: "There's maiden dearly
love.
She's as fair as the daybreak and pure as
gold,
With voice as soft as cooling dove,
And n mouth like bud with one leaf IN
rolled.
The CLEAN of her eyes makes the starlight pale,
And she's witty and clever, well read and
BRED
The maids cheeks flushed at this glowing tale,
And-''l love you, too she said.

One of the first crops to be planted

One of the first crops to be planted
is oats. It is estimated that nearly 10
per cent of it is destroyed by smut.
Preventive measures should be gen
orally used. 1t has been shown by
careful experiments that the Jensen
method, Or the treatment of the seed
with hot water, gives entire immunity
from smut. The treatment consists
in keeping the seed oats for ten min
utes in water at temperature of 113
degrees. This requires means for
heating water, a barrel, thermome-
ter and a sack to hold bushel or two
Of oats. 1t is essential that the water
be kept up to the proper temperature
and that the immersion should not be
continued much under or beyond the
time named. After being removed
the seed should be spread On a floor
and stirred until cool and dried.
