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.

Philadelphia; time, 9.0G%. The sixth beat
was contested by the most formidable of
all the crews, namely: London rowing

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

tons of pig iron. 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.

Being I'ollte to Peddlers.
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." At eighteen minutes past ten,
when the young mnn with chromos in
frames came arouud, she said: " No,
I nothing to-day," and shut tho door with
some vehemence. At twenty-five minutes
past eleven she didn't hear the man
who was canvassing for Blokes' " New

Brooks, Me., Sept. 7, 1870.
Dear Sir? Ffom early youth I was in feeble
health, troubled with humor in my blood,
weakness and debility of the system generally;
wax unable to labor much, and only at some
i light business, and then only with great
caution.
Seven years ago, the past spring, I had a
1 severe attack of diphtheria, which left my
limbs paralyzed and useless, so I was unable
to work or even sit up. Noticing tbe advertisement
of Peruvian Syrup, I oonoladed tc
give it a trial, and to my great joy soon fonnd
my health improving. ' I continued the use ol
the Syrup until three bottles had been need,
and was restored to complete health, and have
remained so to this day.
I attribute my present health entirely to the
use of Peruvian Syrup, and hold it in high es
x wiuiui njobK too mgiiiy in itt
prano. I have in several caies recommended
it in cases very aimilar to my own with tin
san e good results. Yonrs truly,
i Charles E. Peahcy.
