FARM, GARDEN AND HOUSEHOLD. | Infomnl Qarnlloon and Anawera. What treatment in advised for a failing plum tree ? Spread coal ashes around it two or three feet and as many inches deep, and tramp the ashes lightly down. Which is considered the most exhausting crop to soils f Potatoes are the most exhausting of crops usually sold off the farm. Turnips, when sold off, rank next. Grain arops, comparatively speaking, remove but a small quantity of the manunal constituents. What soils are most benefited by green maturing? Clay land, long cropped, is greatly improved, as arc also all old, wornout soils that have been kept under the plow for years without manure. It is. further more, beneficial on au exhausted snndv or river loam, or in faot any land from which vegetable manure has been withheld. Is there any way to break up an inveterate Bitter?a Dorking hen that devotes herself to the business entirely ? Try a nest box placed a foot or two from the floor with a split bottom, tli t is, a bottom made of lath or slats about two inches apart. This will cure her over-fondness lor the nest in a few hours, after which there will bo no more trouble in that line. Is it advisable to let fowls roost out, or are they better in a poultry house at night ? Many farmers advocate roosting iD J trees until the cold fall weather, after which they should have protection. Boosting out in warm weather, especially with young fowls, is thought to harden them and make them healthy; they are also less liable to be troubled with lice. How often should corn bo fed to fowls ? Corn should be fed only in cold weather, and then but once a day, uud that for the last meal. As a rule, heus will eat nothiug else when they can get corn. The result is au increase of fat on their bodies and a decrease of vitality and productiveness. Too much corn interferes with a laying hen; it contains a surplus amouut of fatteniug material and not enough albuminous for the production of eggs. How are the best results obtained in green manuring ? The best results come with a grain crop that is sown thick. In plowing do not turn down too deep; a few inches is sufficient. This keeps the strength near the surface, where the sun has a better effect upon it, converting it soonor into plant food. Do not sow immediately after turning down the crop, but wait?especially if the crop be advanced corn?until it has had time to decompose and the soil has had a chanoe to act upon and with the crop. If the crop turned down is quite heavy after it , is rotted, mix the soil and decayed material by using the oultivator. Value of Forest Loaves. The effect of removing the litter of a mature forest is really far greater than would result from the mere removal of bo many pounds of nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash. When the litter is allowed to accumulate from year to year, and to undersro its natural dl?o Hpiwmi. position, the result is the formation of a forest soil exceedingly rich in hnmus; the formation of such a soil is often of prioeless value to the forester. A rongh, sterile, rocky soil becomes, when penetrated with humus, capable of rctuiniug water, and thus able to withstand drought. By the action of humus the mineral plant food which the soil contains is also brought into a more soluble and available form; i*hile the great 1^ increased porosity of the soil protects all soluble plant food from beiug washed out by heavy rains, a calamity to which the original rocky soil was constantly liable. So great is the importance of humus, that in many forest soils its presence is the one ameliorating principle which renders cultivation possible. Especially must this be the case on the hillsides so frequently devoted to the growth of timber. Nor in this case are the advantages of the deep humus soil confined to the trees growing upon it. Owing to the #normous power of retaining water possessed by a spongy vegetable soil, the adjacent volleys are effectually protected against disastrous floods. Storm water is- retained or delayed, is stored up in the forest soil for use in summer drought, instead of descending in violent streams, tearing up toe sou ana spreading navoo all arotuid. The earefal maintenanoe of forests npon hillsides becomes in this view a qnestion which is in many cases of national im portanoe. To produce in its fullest extent the hnmns covering of the soil, it is necessary that the forest should be planted sufficiently close; in open spaces admitting light and air the hnmns will rapidly oxidize and disappear. For the same reason care shonld be taken that planting immediately follows the felling of timber; the ground, as far as possible, should never be suffered to lie open and unoovered. A Plea far lli?

The British Iron Trade. The British iron trade is greatly depressed. This is especially the case in the Cleveland district, which has enjoyed unexampled prosperity. Fivo large concerns in that quarter are reported bankrupt, one having liabilities amounting to nearly $5,000,000. This crash arises from over-production and dull trade. Sinoe 1850, when the Cleveland mines were first worked, the production has increased annually, the yield last year being 6,000,000 tons. In the same time the blasting furnaoes multiplied 41.--* ?

Great profits were realized from these Bouroes, which were largely invested in rolling mills for the manufacture of railroad iron. A sharp reaction followed. The American demand oeased and liussia largely reduced her orders. Iron rails fell into disfavor, steel being deemed safer aud more durable, These and other adverse ciroumstances ' of loss account have crushed the iron masters. Some of them tried to establish limited liability companies, but could not enlist public support. Bankruptcy, accordingly, was inevitable. Two French 1 dies wero looking at the pictures in the Paris salon. " So I hear," said one, "a celebrated painter has flnixhed a picture for you."

A Chicago woman recently resolved to treat all callers with courtesy, even loggers and peddlers, " for," she soliloquized, " the poor people must make a living these hard times, and mast l>e often discouraged by the rude rebuffs they encounter in the prosecution of their business." About a quarter to nine a. if. a ragged little girl came to the door and said: " Alntchizz ?" she replied: "No, my child, thank you." At ten minutes past nine tho bell rung, and, going to the door, she was confronted I by a peach pirate, who said : " Fine ripe peaches, lady, fifteen cents a peck ?" "No, thank you." "Green corn? Tomatoes? Potatoes? Cucumbers? Eggplant?" "No, nothing at all to-day, thank you." At forty-seven minutes past nine, juet as she had got the baby to sleep, there was a jerk at the bell that made the little one bound a foot into the air and utter a scream. The mother's face reddened somewhat, but she went resolutely to the door, and, when a weary looking old man demnnded if she stood in need of any carbolic salve, knife polish, toilet soap, corn plasters, or stove blacking, sho answered with the reverence due to age: " No, I thank yon, Bir."
