AGMOOLTURE.
DOMESTIC.
HUMOROUS.
Notes in the t'Rurr Tabd.—It Is get
ting to be c. prime matter Jn planting
apple trees to secure varieties that are
hardy. The old seeding orchards wer*
as secure as elms, but not so our finer
sorts. Evolution in quality does not se
cure a survival of the toughest wood.
The tendency is rather the other way.
Of the hardier sorts of late introduction
the Spy ranks high. The Roxbury Rus-
sett does not easily kill, while the Kirk
land is as tough w-. the toughest of the
old-time seedlings. These are the three
beet late winter keepers and most hardy
trees.
Those who plant pears should select
those which do not need to be hurried
to market. Of these the three most
profitable and best are Sheldon, D’Anjou
and Clairgeau. The two first are
also shapely trees, and all thete are
hardy.
A few peach trees from seed should be
on every farm. They will cove a great
deal of satisfaction when they do bear,
and take little room when they do not.
Seedhngs from Early Crawford are like
ly to give hardy as well as good varie
ties. The Wager also may be re
lied on, as well as Amsden and Alexan
der.
No fruit is more profitable, with pro
per care, than the quince. The trees
most be sheltered from cold winds and
protected from the frost This last can
be done by a liberal mulch of coal ashe?.
The quince is easily propagated by
planting cuttings six inches to a foot
long, set in good garden soil The trees
most be well cultivated to be of special
value. It is impossible to get a good
crop of quinces from trees grown in
green sward. The best variety is still
the old Orange.
There are two rules in planting fruit
trees, or for that matter auy trees, that
cannot be too carefully applied: 1. Al
ways cut back the limbs sharply. If
the tree is large, cut away nearly all the
top. So in planting evergreen hedges;
down with tbemjshear away hal f or two-
thirds. 2. Mulch heavily, mulch every-
thine; mulch always.
Hat.—The best quality of hay is ob
tained by cutting the grass while in
bloom. For this, mowing machines
are indispensable. The scythe may do
for the fence corners, but not for gener
al use. In choosing a mower, look to
lightness of draft, strength, and simpli
city of construction. As between equally
good machines, it is best to buy the
one made nearest home,for convenience
in making repairs. It is safer to have
the cutting bar ahead, and to one side
of the driver. The tedder is a valuable
adjunct of the hay field, greatly facilita
ting the drying of the grass. The best
bay is made by curing in the cock.
Sweating improves the quality of hav,
and prevents its heating in the mow.
Cat grass that has hod the sun for one
day may be put up in large cocks,
where it will keep well for a week if
necessary, if protected from rain and
dew by cops. These caps are easily
made from common sheeting, and fre
quently pay for themselves the first
season. The horse-fork is a great labor
saving implement, and should be more
generally used. Haying is soon over,
and everything should be employed that
aids in the hurry of this work.
For mere than thirty years we have
had to do mo<-e or less with the rearing
of calves. Our experience has taught
causes. Change of food, unsuitable
food, cold, wet, bad litter, etc., will in
duce scour. \Ve have tried many sorts
of medicine. Fca several years we
proved that from thirty to sixty drops
(according to age of calf) of chlorodyne.
in a little water, given early, at once
stops the complaint; a second dose was
very rarely necessary. Latterly, we
have weaned the calves gradually from
their mother’s milk and reared them on
skimmed milk, since which time we
have bad little or no scour. One calf
bad scour by its mother’s side, three or
four days old; we put it on another cow
and saved the calf. We could not per
ceive anything amiss with the mother
or her milk, but it did not suit her
calf.
Many farmers of Western New York
are going out of tobacco raising becanse
of the uncertainties of the crop, the loss
of fertility and depreciation of the laud,
and disappointment in sales. Even
those farmers who have realized the
highest prices and the quickest sales
admit that the effect in tobaoco raising
is to reduce profits on general farming;
that its exhaustive tendency is a serious
matter to consider, and that in the long
run it is destructive to more important
interests.
Potatoes.—The Colorado beetle is
the leading enemy to the uotato. It
can be successfully fought with Paris
green or London purple, if the poison is
used so soon as the young “worms”
make their appearance. The ground
must be well stirred and kept free from
weeds, and the crop dug early to avoid
the wet rot
It does not pay to keep poor stock of
any kind. Jf every animal is good of
its kind it is always saleable, and can
be tarned into money at any time that
it is desirable to do so, whereas an in
ferior one is always a drug on the far
mer's hands.
About 50,000 dozens of eggs are con
sumed daily in New York City,when the
prices are as high as they are at present.
When the cost of eggs reaches the low
est point they will be cheaper than meat
and the consumption will increase to
200,000 dozens a day.
The growing of cauliflowers is re
ceiving more attention than formerly,
particularly so the earlier "-uieties. The
crops of Dwarf Erfurt and Snowball
begin to come forward in June, and
these wiih the latter sorts, are in the
market almost without intermission un
til November.
Thebe does not seem to be any feasi
ble way of getting rid of the rose bog
except by hand picking. The rose slug
is another depredator which ahonld tie
kept under by dusting the plants with
powdered hellebore.
The Sugar Beet calls the attention of
farmers to the advantages of bill culture
for beets,saying the French and Austri
ans have largely adopted it. This plan of
culture seems to present the most prac
tical advantages.
Professor Sanborn has conducted a
series of er^riments which prove con
clusively that it takes more corn to
make a pound of pork when the hogs
were allowed to run at large than when
they were confined in a pen.
Afpliqued Pieces.—This style of
decorative work is very satisfactory, it
is so handy, and particularly the small
pieces, which make no bulk, and hence
are easily taken about from the parlor
to the piazza and out into the garden
summer houses, over in the grov^,
down by the shore, or anywhere one
may wander to while rusticating. The
fashion of adorning many household
and toilet articles with appliquec! designs
gives tj this industry a great deal of
special interest, much more than is
usually bestowed upon one kind of dec
orative needlework. Bonnet crape is ot
all shades—and the very email pieces
are jn&t what is wanted in making these
flowers. Some of the petals ore formed
of narrow ribbon radiating from the
centres, which are often curiously con
structed of dots, especially in designing
such flowers as daisies. Another very
interesting industry is pillow lace mak
ing; there is no difliculty in learning
the stitches and method of working out
the patterns. Lace making has become
quite fashionable. There are several
kinds that are excellent imitations of
point lace and the old-time guipure.
Manufacturers have recently brought
out a number of new shades in embroid
ery pilks. This addition of color to
this deparsment of decorating materials
will give wider scope to the landscape
touches that are so much admired in
needlework for household adorning.
** ¥ “Men are but sorry witnessesin their
own cause.” The praise of Kidney-Wort
comes from the mouths of those who have
been made strong and healthy by P. Listen:
“It is curing everybody,” writes a drug
gist. “Kidney-Wort is the most popular
medicine we sell.” It should be by right,
tor no other medicine has such specific ac
tion on the liver, bowels and kidneys.

Cherry Ratafia —Take eight pounds
of the best of red cherries; add to this
eight pounds of the best of black cher
ries; also, two pounds of the best and
ripest of raspberries, one pound of the
best red currants, another pound of the
best of white currants, three ounces of
coriander seed, half an ounce of mace
and half an onnee of cinnamon. To
these spices add half of the stones of
the cherries; pound those very fine in a
mortar. Mix all the foregoing well to
gether. Add two pounds and a half of
the best of white sugar; put all in a
demijohn, cork tightly, aud allow to
remain so for thirty days; now open and
filter, then bottle. The most heroical
use of of the cherry in this country is
cherry bounce. This is entirely an
American invention. For good or for
evil, cherry bounce Las entered into the
politics, and even the religion of the
American continent, for several genera
tions. It would seem to have originated
with the “first families of Virginia;”
but the fashion subsequently crept into
the social usages of several other sur
rounding populations. There is no de
nying the soft impeaehment that a long
line of American statesmen, generals,
scholars, physicians, aud even doctors
of divinity, drank in cherry bounce with
their mother’s milk. A lull review of
the cherry in America would be incom
plete without some allusion to the
‘•make-up” of this celebrated decoction.
Ituiub 'Rirm Ac>un.
I saw so mudi sain about me merits or
Hop Bitters, and my wife who was always
doctoring,and never well, teased me so ur
gently to get her some, 1 concluded to be
humbugged again, and I am glad I did, for
in less than two months’ use of the Bitters,
my wife was cured, and she has remained
so for eighteen months since, t like such
humbugging.—H. T., fSt. Paul.—“Pio

For Tender Feet.—Bathe the feet
every night in warm water, and imme
diately after apply to them strong vine
gar. When they are inclined to crack,
or become dry and bard (which is fre
quently a great annoyance to aged per
sons), alter using the vinegar, anoint
them freely with spermaceti ointment.
•‘Used Up.”
What Is the precise meaning of lira familiar
phrase when employed to signify an unnatural
condition of the body and mind ? It means ex
haustion, languor, want of vital energy, mental
apathy—a pitiable stnte of physical aud mental
helplessness. The best, and In fact the only per
fectly reliable panacea for a “used up" system Is
that most popular and potent of medicinal st mu-
lams, Hostetler's Stomach Bitters. No matter
whether the health has been broken down by ex
cessive labor, over-study, an Insalubrious atmos
phere, anxiety, Irregularities In diet, dissipation,
or any other cause, this powerful aud pleasant
vegetable restorative will soon recruit the droop-
ingenergiesuf nature, restoring the tntegr ty of
the nerves, and re-estabbshlng that functional
regularity which Is essential to animal vigor and a
hopetul frame of mind. As a cure for lU-hllitu, in
all its varied manifestations, Hostetler's Stomach
Bitters is unapproached by any tunic in the via.

Boilinq Woolen Cloth.—Wool or
woolen cloth ought never to be boiled,
as some recoratn«nd, in coloring it. It
may be heated, but should never be

Another Life Saved.
J. C. Gray, of Daderllle, Ala., writes us:
“I have been using your Dr. Win. Hall’s
Balsam for the Lungs, and I can say, of a truth, it
is far superior to any otlur Lung preparation in
the world. My mother was confined to her bed
four weeks with a cough, and had every at cn-
tlon by as good physicians as there are In the
country, and they all failed to effect a cure; but
when I got one bottle of your Dr. Win. Hall s
Balsam for the Lungs, she began to mend right
away. I can say In truth, that it was the means of
saving her life. I know of five cases that Dr. Wm.
Hall’s Balsam has cured, and my mot her is better
now than she has been before for twenty years.’
Fried Peaches,—Cut in halves a doz
en firm, ripe, free-stone peaches; have
ready over fire a dripping pan contain
ing smoking-hot lard half an inch deep:
lay the peaches in the pan, the cut side
down, as soon as they are cut, and fry
them light brown; as soon as the side
next the pan is done, turn them over
without breaking them, and heat the
other side. The moment they are heated
through, arrange them on a hot platter,
with the cat side up, put a little pow
dered sugar in each and serve them
hot for dessert.

A pretty tidy is made by embroider
ing a spray of flowers or a bird on a
sma'l squared satin; then put a band of
satin around this; have it of a contrast
ing oolor; then another band outside cf
this, and finish with fringe. If the satin
is of a bright oolor and of good quality,
it needs no other decoration.
He loved his horse; The Kentttckikn’a
admiration for fine horses is the strong
est feeling in his nature. He cares very
little whether or ndt the public enter
tains a favorable opinion of him, but he
wants everybody to think well of bis
horse. Some time ago the editor of tbe
Kentucky State Journal, published at
Newport, published a local ivem con-
cerniug a horse well known in the com-
mumty. Shortly afterward a man en
tered the office with a revengeful air
and said: “My name is ’Squire daggers
and I am not a tender-hearted man, let
me tell you. I understand that yon
have flung reflections on the character
of my horse.” “I don’t know,” replied
the editor, “that I said anything derog
atory to the' character of your horse.
I merely insinuated that you stole the
animal, but I did not say anything to in
the least injure his character." “That’s
all right, then. I don’t care who says
I stole him, but blamed if any mau shall
say that he can’t run.’'
Wise men say nothing in danger
ous times.” Wise men use nothing in
dangerous diseases but the best and most
approved remedies. Thus Kidney-Wort
is employed universally in cases of diseas-
ed liver, kidney and bowels. It will cost
you but a tritie to try it, and the result
will be most delightful.

Too sober to shoot: At the recent
pigeon-shooting at Houston a gentle
man who had claimed to be a crack
shot missed six successive birds, and
his disgusted friends, who had been
betting on him, were mad enough to
drown him. “What kind of shooting
is that?’’ asked one of them, indignant
ly. “I know its my fault. I am too
sober. No sober man can ikpeot to hit
birds that fly so crooked If I bad bad
three more beers I’d have scattered
feathers, and don’t you forget it."

I know Hop Bitters will bear recom
mendation honestly. All who use them
confer upon them the highest encomiums,
and give them credit for making cures—
all the proprietors claim for them. I have
kept them since they were first offered to
the public. They took high rank from
the first, and maintained it, and are more
called for than all others combined. Bo
long as they keep up their high reputation
for purity and usefulness, I shall continue
to recommend them—something I have
never before done with any other patent
medicine. J. J. BABCOL'K, AL D.

“A few months ago 1 was taken seriously 111 and
obliged to give op my accustomed household du

worse continually until I was conflned to my bed,
in spite of the doctor’s prescriptions and the best

severe from the excruciating pains in my back,
and my legs were very badly swollen, attended
with severe pains, which were supposed to be
cau-ed by the rheumatism. A friend of mine who
called to see me urged me to try Hunt’s Remedy,
stating that he knew of the wonderful cures of
several parties who bad taken this medicine, In
cases which seemed very much like mine, except
ing that they were In much worse condition than I
was. I consented to try the Remedy, and begun
to take It as directed, and before I had finished
taking one bottle the Improvement In me was
great, and it continued constantly, so that after I
had taken less than three bottles I was able to re
sume my Household duties and do my work easily,
although I had been confined to the bed several
weeks. The swelling of my limbs has disappeared,
and the lameness and pains In my back are gone,
