child was standing with her back to

flames caught her apron strings, when
in almost moment the fire covered
her back, and catching her hair. For
tunately her brother and others got to
her in time to save her, not however
until nearly all of her clothing had
been been burned and large blister

WATERING IN STABLES.
A Practice which, After u single
Faithful Trial, Will Never BE
Given Up Entirely.

At farmers institute in Ontario
one stock feeder said both milch cows
and fattening stock should have water
constantly by them in the barn. He
usually watered from a tank 12 feet
deep and 12 feet in diameter, filed
by water from the roof. so arranged
that they could have water when they
pleased. By an accident to this tank
he was obliged for time to bring wa
ter from spring and watered at reg
Hlar hours, and while he could not
estimate the loss to the fattening cat-
tie, he knew that two milch cows fell
off one-third In their milk as result.
His neighbor. also q feeder, thought
II was necessary for the stock to be
turned out every day for water and
exercise. BY keeping his cattle in the
stable and water constantly within
reach of them, he fatted his for market
in six weeks less time than his neigh

bor received. We think he did not
oyerestimate the importance of hav-
ing the water where they could drink
when they wished to do SO, and take
it little and often, but we think some
of the differences Is due to the temper
ature of water In the tank and that

Cement Floor for a Cellar.

While it is not at all difficult to
lay a cement floor it is well to have
the advice and assistance of a local
mason. The main thing is to get a
good foundation of broken stones or
bricks at least six inches deep. The
cement can then be mixed dry with
it's bulk of coarse, sharp sand, or
fine gravel. Add water and mix very
thoroughly until it is soft uniform
mortar. Pour over the foundation,
tamping down well until it fills all
crevices between the stones. In
about "a hours another thinner coat
may be smoothly spread over the
surface, making everything level.
Cover with hay or straw for several
days to avoid too rapid drying and
cracking. There is nothing better
than cement for the purpose.-Rural
New Yorker.

JUDICIOUs PRUNING.
AltOeether Too Little Attention
from Apple Growers.

1t seems to me it might be well to
call the attention of your readers to
the Importance of caring well for the
apple trees if we would produce fine
fruit. So far as my observation ex-
tends the trees contain far too much
wood. Suppose for a moment that
your trees contain 1,2O0 limbs, great
and small; each of these limbs or
twigs throw out certain quantity
of new wood each year, according as
the conditions are favorable or un-
favorable for growing wood. The
production of this wood is constant
drain upon the parent stalk. We will
suppose that 400 of these limbs are
Topped off and if the same energy or
vitality is brought to bear on the re-
naming 500 limbs the new wood
thrown out will reach much higher
state of perfection.
The same rule will apply to the
fruit. Too many limbs furnish the
opportunity for an excessive number
of buds, and with favorable condi-
tions you get too many blossoms,
with the result of far too many sets;
and your tree, unable to sustain the
great drain upon it, yields large
number of inferior apples. With
fewer limbs you get smaller num-
ber of apples, but at the harvest you
realize as many in bulk. and these
are merchantable and will command
much higher price in any market in
which they are exposed for sale.
Pruning out fruit trees is indeed
an important matter. and one that
receives too little attention. We will
do well to think upon this subject
these long winter evenings. and when
spring comes put our thoughts into
execution. give our trees genuine
surprise party, and in the autumn
we shall take pride in calling in our
neighbors to witness the bountiful
harvest; and when we receive the re-
turns from the consignment of ap-
pies, the bill will not be marked No.
