Last year apples were so abun dant that, in some localities, they would not pay for handling, and large quantities were left to decay where they fell. In view of the fact that a year of excess and low prices, is followed by one of scar city and high prices, inquiries have come to us in such numbers, as show that many are considering the practicability of changing this state of affairs. It is an encour aging sign that farmers are induced to think about their orchard at all, for as a general thing there is no part of their belongings so neg lected as this. Trees are set, but it is looked upon rather as a waste of land, so the orchard must be cropped, and while no other part of the farm is expected to do it, that occupied by the orchard must yield two. crops. The cause of all trouble with fruit trees, whether of failure altogether, or occasional excessive bearing, and the rest may be summed up in one word-neg lect. We now confine our remarks to the present trouble, 'and to an swering the various inquiries about alternate bearing. The ppple tree left to itself will generally bear such an abundant crop that it re quires another year, and some times longer, to recuperate, and accumulate sufficient nutriment to form buds and nourish another crop. This tendency is very marked in some leading varieties, and as it has been going on for many years, the habit has become fixed, and when we pi-opagate these va rieties, the young trees start with that as one of their peculiarities, in which they have been educated, so to speak. It is well known that this tendency is much more marked in some varieties than in others, and while seine naturally fall into alternate bearing, others resist it, and will, if they have a fair chance, give a crop of fruit every year. This is a character to which little attention has been given by our poinologists; they state if a tree comes into bearing early,-or if it is an abundant or shy bearer, but its tendency to annual or biennial bearing is rarely recorded, while it is one of the most important quali ties. Varieties that naturally bear annually may be converted into biennial bearers by starvation ; planted, as- they often are on poor soil, and robbed of their nutriment by another crop, the trees cannot get food enough to enable them to carry even a small crop every year, and they are forced into alternate bearing. The practical question is, how can trees that now bear ex cessively one year and nothing the -next be made to bear moderately every year. So far as the alternate hearing is due to the poverty of the soil, the remedy is evident, and no doubt would be, with many varie ties, sufficient. WILL MANURING HEELP?? Our correspondent, "C onnecti cut," in writing us, says : "I.once knew an old apple tree, an inveter ate biennial bearer, that was made to change its habit by breakir.g up the sward in which it stood, and cropping it with potatoes ; the sward was heavy, and in its decay, enriched the ground, and besides this, the potatoes were well ma nured. But the manuring was not con:tinued beyond one season, and the tree in a few years relapsed in to its old ways." We agree with our correspondent that fertilizing the orchard will help, and in some ca- be all theat is nnqired but excessive. In such cases nothing will break up the habit but the re moval of a large portion of the fruit on the year of abundance. WILL IT PAY TO THIN THE FRUIT ( That this severe thinning will change the bea.rin.g year there is sufficient testimony, but there is one point on which we lack evi dence-will it pay? If any of our friends have tried thinning to induce annual bearing, or to reverse the bearing year on full grown trees, we ask in behalf of many inquirers that they will give their results. With young orchards, just coming into bearing, the case is very differ ent, and whoever will take the pains, and give ;he young trees the needed care, car. make their orchard bear annually. The education of the trees must begin with their first fruiting, as the first excessive crop, though small in itself,. starts the tree on the wrong track. When the trees are young the quantity of fruit to be removed is small, and all within reach. Of course the cul tivation of the soil must not be neg lected, but a healthy growth main tained. Whoever will start right with his orchard, and treat it fairly, will have no reason to complain. Among the varieties of apples that are naturally annual bearers, though they may be starved into bearing biennially, or not at all, are Vandevere ; Sops of Wine; Grimes' Golden, a comparatively new apple of great excellence; Milam; Minklers'; Rawles' Janet, for the South; Benoni; Hubbards ton Nonsuch ; Domine; Higby Sweet, and English Sweet (Rams dell's Sweet at the South). If any of our fruit growers can add to this list of annual bearers, we hope they will do so.-American Agriculturist for March. KEEPING FARM AccoUNTS.-Up on this topic the Western Rural has the following good advice : "It is essential to success in all kinds of business that a record shall be kept of expenditures and receipts. 'The merchant or me chanic who fails to keep an accu rate accoun t of his business transac tions will, in nine cases out of ten, find that he is losing money; and in a few years finds himself bank rupt. It is only a question of time. It is true that a farmer makes fewer exchanges of property than a merchant, but still there is an outgo constantly, as well as re ceipts for products sold. These should be noted down daily, for in this way only can any accurate knowledge be had whether the farm is paying or not, or at the end of the year, whether this crop or that has paid any profit, or whether or not the whole farm is a satisfactory in vestment. Gen erally, fairmers work hard enough, and are economical enough in their expenditures, but, still, many of them d& not get satisfactory re turns for their labor. There are so many small items of expense a little thing hero and another there-that in the aggregate make up no inconsiderable sum. Now,, if a system of accounts is kept, it' is not difficult to find out whera the leakages are, and to stop them. It induces a little more thinking and figuring, but that is something that pays in farming as well as in mercantile and mechanical pur suits. Brain is quite as essential as brawn in the management of farm work." BEEF SoUP.-Take tho round of beef, cut off the tough outer gris te, take out the bone from the centre, break it up, throw all into the pot, with half enough water to cover, and stew, allowing half an hour to each pound of meat. Take the broth, to which, if not strong enough, add sufficien t stock, which as a careful housewife, von have always on hand. Mean while slice three onions and fry them to a light brown. T.ake a teaspoonful of celery seed, a teaspoonful of cloves, a blade Gf mace, half a tea spoonful of pepper, a little allspice,I a tablespoonful of Worcestershire sauce, and stew all together for two hours. Strain the soup, and put it again on on the fire; salt it to the taste. GERMAN "WIND-BAs."-To five ounces of butter, add one-fourth )it of water, and boil; add grad ually, while on the fire, six ounces of flour, an;d one spoonful of sugar; stir very briskly for ten minutes, then take this paste and put by spoonfuls in buttered tins, sprinkle with powdered sugar; bake fifteen FUTS .YPliscelaneoads.
