% A Saii Case?Death of a Released SO-called Ku-Klux prisoner We learn from the Norfolk Journal, that a man named William Teal, a native of Rutherford County, X. Ci, died on board the steam ship Wyanollc, on Monday evening, just as she was made fast to the wharf, at Norfolk. He was one of the Ku-Klux prisoners convicted at Raleigh more than a year ago, and sentenced to three years imprisonment in the Albany Penitentiary. He was recently pardoned by the President on account of his physical state?he being in the last stages of . consumption?and bis devoted wife hud gone on for him and brought him thus far on his way home when death put an end to his suffer-1 ings. He was twenty-eight years old, and leaves a widow and three small children in very necessitous circumstances.? Charleston Courier. Fruit Trees and Planting:. ? ? * There can be no aporogy iur UWUVIO v* I landed estates failingto put out fruit trees and vines and shrubbery. Every fruit tree planted adds twenty times its cost, if not more, to the value of the farm} If in any event the owner or his heirs have reason to sell, the same truth will - then he fully realized. Evflry body is fbnd-of^iut^tmd tfrf man of .family who neglects to provident for his household is not doing his whole duty to them. Any observant or intelligent man, contomplatiug settling on an estate, will make it one of the first considerations with him before purchasing whether or not it has on it an orchard of fruit; he has no#otion of waiting several years for so healthful and toothsome an addition to his home epmforts, and doubtless many a sale has been defeated by the lack of this luxury, or rather this necessary portion of food. Besides these home considerations, fruit is now becoming in many quarters the largest source of profit to the owners of plantations, and if the finer qualities arc produced and attention is paid to the proper varieties and the times and seasons for their ripening and gathering, there can be no more profitable crop raised than fruit. * Prepare your land by. plowing deeply, and if it is subsojled, so much the better. : if not rich, make it so by - ad ing well rotted manure, and worl^this in ; but if the manure i6 fresh, spread it upon the surface after the trees are planted. Dig up the trees carefully, preserving as many of the roots as possi11 ?J enfifrifr' fls'deen as Die, anu roiuuim, umj uv.....,, ? ?r ? they were before. Be careful to have the earth worked' in among thd coots and firmly pressed down, after whioh it may be well id stake each tree in order, to hold it firmly in its place and prevent the wind from swaying the tops about and loosening the roots. We should also advise pruning the branches, either cutting out a portion entire, or shortening the largest. Each kind should be planted'by itself? cherries in one plot or row, plnms in another, the dwarf pears separate from the standards. The distance apart will depend somewhat on the varieties, although for garden or small orchards the following will answer, Apples. standards. 25 feet each way; crab apples, 20 feet; cherries, large growing sorts like the Bigarveaos; 25 to" 30 feet; plums; 12 to 15 feet; dwarf pears 10 feet. If a man will", attend to the pruning properly the trees inny be given one-third less space and not become crowded in-? life-time; but i?-thi? country we have so much of the "spread eacrle" in our composition, that we take more pride in the size of trees than in their capacity for producing a crop of fruit. The Value of.^Pumpkins.?Last year I raised twenty ox-cart loads of pumpkins, with corn from an acre. The cart would hold KuqLaIs of notatoes. I consider them a valuable feed for cattle, taking iuto con*, sideration how cheaply they can be raised. I undertook to dry some in my apple-drying house for market, and was offered fiveoents per pound. I found that a green pumpkin weighing from fifteen to. twenty pounds,, would make about one pound of well-dressed dry pumpkin, and that it would pay better 'to dry them for my hogs (as it could bo done very , cheap) than it would be to sell. I soaked the dry pumpkin in milk, and fed the same to the hogs?they gained very fast. I also dried quite an amount and barreled it to feed them this summer." I fed my sheq^ upon the green ones for two months, and it did very much toward fattening forty which I sold for mutton, and the forty which I wintered never did better. I commenced to feed my cattle in September, and fed some ' every day till Fehruary, It saved a vast amount of feed. I am planting but a small piece of corn, and wish to raise a very large amount of pumkins, so plant them with my early corn, ^hich will let thfMun-give. the , pumpkinga chance th gcbw^+Mainc Farther. . How to Raise -Turkeys.?a farmer's wife, who has had years of experience,-gives the following as her mode of nysing'-turkeys: In the first place select a good kind. , 1 The autumn or- wtoter, is the most jfayorable. < time for that, just before the birds are sent to market.- Keep them well during the winter. In the RDrimr. a few davs before tliey-begin to lay,, put them ia^au enclosure, where it is most desirable to have their ..] nests, and where they cannot get out. After they ha^? made their nests, they may be set at liberty without any fear of roaming or straying. Next, take good care of the. j eggs. They should be gathered cerefully every day. and placed between layers of flan- ] nel or cotton, in a place of uniformly cool temperature, and turned over every day. 1 As soou as the birds are hatched, feed them with warin bread and milk well peppered, with ( boiled eggs added; or thickened with cooked corn meal or wheat middlings, .which is ' .better A little care in these matters, will repay all efforts. Before I knew how to ' take care of the eggs, I set thirty eggs one year, and but one hatched. The next year set forty eggs and nearly every one hatched, +iio At nrcsent nriees. rais ?uu vuv vnwM...Vv.. -??r r ing poultry is a much more pleasant and easy occupation than the slavish drudgery of making butter and cheese. .
