One former recommends, whenever a forked tree is fonnd, cleaning a small limb on each fork of its loavee and lateral branches, then bringing them together and winding them round each other, from one main branch to the other. This will cause them to unite in a year's time, and is a pericct security from splitting. Does soil have any iufluence on eggs ? The poultry in aud about Amiens are the most celebrated layers in France; the reason given by oue writer on the subject is the soil of that district, which contains a marked quantity of silica, is highly favorable for egg laying purposes. The neighborhood of Boulogne is said to havo this same quality of soil, and when fowls are removed from it their fecundity oeasea. What are the effects of drainage f The most important effects of drain-i ago are the deepening of the soil and the lengthening of the seasons. Boots of plants will not go down into stagnant water, but take away the water and they will reach out after the plant food below the surface. The week or two gained by drainago is a great relief to backward springs. Draiuage also increases the effect of the application of manuro. Which produces the best keepers? the seed from onions planted out in the fall before the rains begin, or onions raised from seed produced by onions kept until the first of March ? The keeping quality of onions, aooordin<X tn ffWifnrm'afn"""" J 5 * D ?..V.UU>IIUU1C1, Ut-JICUUH rniicu more on the soil in which they are raised ' than on the time when tho bulbs which prodnce the seed are planted. A dry, sandy loam will prodnce better onions for keeping than low, heavy land. Mnch also depends on how onions are cured and treated in the winter. A second growth allowed after the onion has ripened will in itself spoil the onion for long keeping. D*BNtlo Hints. To looson a glass stopper, ponr around it a little sweet oil, close to the stopper, and let it stand in a warm place. To have corned beef juicy after it is cold, and not as dry as a chip, put it into boiling water when you cook it, and do not take it out until tho water is cold. Stove polish, when mixed with turpentine instead of water, and applied in the usual manner, is blacker, more glossy and enduring than when mixed with any other liquid. To remove paint from ootton, silk, or woolen goods, saturate the spot in spirits of turpentine, and let it rnmmn several hours, then rub it between the hands. It will crumble away, without injury either to the color or texture of the article. To prevent chimneys from craokiug, place them in a kettle of cold water, and gradually heat it until it boils, then let it oool. They will not be brokch by the ordinary fluctuation of the flame. Out ting them on the convex side with a diamond, to allow room for expansion by heat, will, it is said, prevent them from cracking. Any poison which has been swallowed, intentionally or by accident, may be rendered harmless by swallowing two gills of sweet oil. An individual with a very strong constitution should take twice the quantity. The oil nutralizea every form of vegetable or mineral poison with which physicians are acquainted. A heaping teaspoonful each of common salt and ground mustard stirred into half a glassful of water is a good antidote for poison; this vomits as soon as it reaches the stomach; but. for four some of the poison may still remain, swallow the whites'of one or two raw eggs, or drink a cup of strong coffee. Mentonable Nucceallana. Sheep well kept in winter rarely suffer from ticks. Feed cattle given to gnawing boards and rottou wood as many, corn cobs as ~ill TC?l j va>. X- con mem irom tLo band, repeating this whenever they retarn to the habit. Gather a few barrels of road dust before the fall rains set in to dost catt e and fowls with daring the winter to rid them of vermin. Road dast is also an excellent disinfectant. Black walnnts intended for planting should be gathered at the usual time iu the fall, and covered with a few inch' s of soil daring the win tea. This covering prevents their freezing and thawing. When the ground is ready for working in the spring the nnts may be planted. Care should be taken not to mjare those that have sprouted. l>o not plant near other trees, and place them where they are to remain, as it is a difficult matter to transplant a walnut tree. Plant the nnts two or three inohes deep. WaUmelM Vinegar a*4 Mjrrap. \ Both vinegar and syrnp oan be manned factored from the watermelon. About ten years ago, while on a sheep ranch one hundred and 1? from Loa Angeles, CaL, from whence we reoeived our supplies, I took a fortygallon oaken cask and filled it with tipe, or nearly ripe, watermelons, all being braised to a palp or into finite small fragments with a wooden pounder, as they were thrown, in. Then the head was replaced, and every day we changed . ends, one resting on the ground. In a little time the rinds of the melons changed to a palp, and the whole mass was formed into a pleasant bat not strong vinegar. Bat by the addition of a few anarts of molasses, we drew oat oooasionlly from the larger pack into a smaller one. supplied with the plant, or "mother,* all of whioh made very fine vinegar. Since then, gardeners manufacture all the syrup they need from the melon, the juioe of which is reduced by evaporation according to the usual simple proeess of the sugar maple syrup in this country, and is about the consistency of ordinary syrup, ooane in grain, but nob, and of a fruity flavor, very pleasant to Um taste. Seme prefer it to any other far domestic purposes. There is no great expense attached to its reduction. In these times of rest it may stimulate others to a worthy trial. | * SUMMARY OF SEWS.

The r?ntillan A communication from the officials of the Canadian government, forwarded from the British Possessions, was some time since received at tho State and War departments at Washington, making a statement that the Blackfeet Indians bad received a present of tobacco from Sitting Bull, and a smoke was had over the proposition of their tribe joiniug the hostiles on the war path. This was finally deoided in the negative, and since then, in view of the probability that they might be subjected to the vengeful ire of tho warriDgSioux, the Blackfeet Indians became apprehensive of danger, and have asked whether proper arrangements would be made for their proper protection in the event of the Sioux coming down upon them as enemies. The Canadian government have signified to the Blackfeet that they did right in adopting their peaceful course, and that they will be protected as far as possible with such force as it can provide. But as they aro at a long distance from where Canadinu troops oan be furnished and as they cannot be well marched during this season to the oountry of the Blackfeet, they are authorized, if necessary, to arm and equip for defense in the employ of the Canadian government 2,000 of their tribe to be used in defense of their interests and homes should they be attacked, as they apprehend, by Sitting Bull and his warriors. Provision has accordingly been made by them in the event of tho hostile Sioux going into British territory for refuge or warlike operations to me.t them with armed resistance, and it is understood that tho United States government will also make a demand for their capture and surrender to its forces, when found there, to be punished for tho transgroesiona and outlawry tbey have been guilty of on the plains. This the Blackfeet, it is expected, will also aid in carrying ont.
