But as a rule the work is better dono in spring than at any other time. "When dead limbs arc cut of! the itirrups should bo cut close to the body of the tree, and the wound painted over with linsced-oil aud iron paint to ex clude the wot, which would rot the wood and cause the rec to decay. An axe should never be used in pruning; a sharp fine-toothed saw, with plenty of set to the teeth, is the best instrument for this work. SSmall limbs should bo cut close to the bark of the branches to avoid sprouts growing from the stirrups. The rubbish should be removed and burned with all the eggs of insects which arc apt to be upon it. New York Times. An Opportunity for Manure Making. To preserve a healthful condition, maintain the vital warmth, and keep the pkin in proper action, thorough carding and brushing should not be neglected in a winter dairy, and the utmost cleanli ness in every respect should be observed. Abundant supplies of absorbents, of which dried swamp muck is the best, and hardwood sawdust aud fresh leaves next, and in place of these cut straw, or any other line waste material should be procured. The wiutcr dairy is a grand opportunity for making manure, and the improvement of a farm, and to this end every possible economy in saving and preserving tho manure should be exercised. The feeding must be liberal and of the best food. It must be regu lar' in quality, quantity and time; be cause of the fooi the butter mut come, and in quality and quantity will be ex actly equivalent to the food given. American Agriculturist. Prejudices of Fowl. There is no doubt but that the fowls have their likes and dislikes which are quite as decided as our own. If any one has ever tried to drive a hen in the di rection not suited to her inclinations he will arce with me that it is hard to rind any animal more "set"' in its way than this fusy, squawking, nervously dis tracted hen. For this reason it is best to study their habits and instincts, and where they do not interfere with the vegetable garden or something of that like, to conform to their likes and dis likes as much as possible, for be sure that tho better you understand your fowls, the better you will be able to care for them, and conse quently the better able they will be to do for you. It is well known that hens take great delight in laying in out-of-the-way places, often causing great loss and annoyance thereby to their owners. Now in this you must manage them very much as you would a man ; let them think that they are having their own way, when in reality they are doing just as you want them to do. Have a series of rests or boxes with the entrance in rear away from the light, with a hinged door in front for convenience in gathering the eggs. If nests are lousy, hens will not lay in them if they can find any other nook, and it is movt important that they should bo frequently and thoroughly whitewashed. I never set a hen (as I have seen neighbors do) a second time in the same nest without burning the old straw and filling anew. Poultry Monthly. Best Time to Wean the Calf. A. L. Crosby, of Hockland Farm, Maryland, says in the Prairie Farmer: My practice has been to let the calf suck tho cow for two or three days, and then take it away and teach it to drink milk; or if milk is too valuable for calf food, linseed meal tea, or hay tea; the latter I have never tried. If the calf is be to sold to the butcher at 3 or 4 weeks old it is still the best policy to wean it early, as the 6horter tho time it stays with the cow the less the cow will worry when the calf is taken away. Some prefer to re move the calf before it has had a chance to suck, even before the cow has licked it dry. This I never do, believing that it is better for both cow and calf to leave them together for a day or two. If the cow's udder is "caked" the butting of the calf is the best rcmody I know of, as she will stand rougher treatment from the calf than she will from hand-rubbin". O Especially is this so in the case of heifers with their first calves. It is much casbr to teach a calf to drink that has been al lowed to remain only a few days with its mother, but it is belter for the cow to have her milk drawn rapidly by a good milker than to have it drawn intermittently by tho calf. It is better for the calf to have the milk given it in regular quantities, which is impossible when it i3 allowed to suck. After the first week, skim-milk and linseed meal may b3 gr.uluilly substituted for the fresh milk, with no injury to the growth of the calf, as the oil in the linseed nu-al takes the place of the fat removed in tin cream. In fact when the cow is a rich milker (the oaly cow it pays to fee I if wo arc making butter), I think there is les3 danger of scours when the calf is fed on skim-milk and linseed meal tea than if fed on the whole milk. The longer the calf remains with the cow the more danger there is of its sucking its mother, or another cow, after it is allowed to run with the rest of the stock. Farm and Garden Notes. Produce not marketed should be well stored and protected. NJIens are fond of blue or June grass, and a. large variety of food, including a lock of early cut high. It h said that sheep that are old and out of condition improve surprisingly on clover hay, and often become quite fleshy. In transplanting trees be careful to preserve the roots moist. All breeding i3 founded upon the axiom that "like begets like." Hoard's Dairyman says feed Holsteins as you do Jerseys, for butter, and you will see a great difference in the quality of the milk. "When a hen is in a healthy laying condition the comb is bright colored, showing it to bo full of blood, and thrilling with every activity. No sheep is better for a wetting, but rather worse, no matter what the time of year. It is both merciful and eco nomical to provide good shelter for sheep. The rule generally observed among in experienced growers is to cut fodder corn for drying in the early blossom of the tassel. It should, at till events, to be secured before frost. Leaves arc better bedding for pigs than straw, which is bad for them when wet; but straw is good enough if the pens arc water-proof. Pigs should be cared for in bad weather. A poultry keeper says unclean ej3 should be washed or wiped when gath ered, or pungent filth may penetrate and spoil the meat. Eggs for keeping should only be wiped, not washed. In packing butter for storing, it is a good plan to put a piece of thin muslin on the bottom of the tub, well wet, and a layer of salt, and then pack the butter on top. lorc in a dry, cool place. The agricultural editor of the Missouri Republican suggests united action in killing the white butterfly, which is the parent of the cabbage worm, as cheaper and more effective than destroying the worm. Milch cows should not be suffered to chill, as the milk glands are closed by such a cause she will give less at the next milking, and never fully recover until she has auother calf. It is a good rule for farmers who can afford it to slack up on market crops when it does not pay to grow them, and seed with clover to make the land pro ductive when it does not pay. Pigs, it is true, guzzle all the sour milk they can get in the way of "swill," but sweet milk after the cream and water are taken, is better for them. Souring milk changes sugar of milk to lactic acid. If roots are to be grown next season where corn stubble is to be ploughed under, let it be done deeply and all the stubble well covered. Rough, uneven ploughing, with loose corn-stubb on the surface, is not good farming. In trimming apple trees, no limbs should be removed except such as should be in order to benefit the tree. All limbs which have begin t,o decay should bo cut off as disease mav cause it. So with pear trees, which arc subject to blight. Rose bushes may be protected in cold weather by hilling up with earth; or, better, . by strewing leaves - or straw lightly over the plants, and securing them with evergreen branches. When the latter are abundant, they are in themselves sufficient. A. M. Purdy says that peach trees growing near the house, where dish and wash-water are thrown out, are long- lived and free from worms or disease. A hint to peach-growers on a large scale, to the effect that salt and alkali are use ful ingredients. Coarse manure, with considerable lit ter in it, is the best for top dressing for any crop remaining in the ground through the winter. Swamp muck makes a goo I substitute. The New York "Witness recommends a liberal ad dition of fine bone flour and ashes and plaster. An Old-Time Wedding. Wedding?, says the Youth's Com panion, are generally merry occasions in our time. The religious services arc simple, and tho company of guests, whether large or small, is in high spirits, and counts upon a lively time. It is quite possible that not even the persons most nearly interested comprehend the solemnity of the act of marriage, and of the serious responsibilities that come with it. A century and a half ago in New England the solemnity wa3 more marked, and the religious services formed a dominant element. Dr. Isaac Backus gives a graphic account of his marriage, Nov. 29, 1749: "A P.salm was read by It . v. Mr. Shep ard, of Attlcboro', a hymn was sung, and prayer offered. Then I took my dear Susan by the hand, and spoke something of the sense I had of our standing and acting in the presence of God, and also how He had clearly pointed out to me this person to be my companion and a helper meet for me. Then I declared the marriage covenant, and she did the same. Thereupon E quire Foster solemnly declared that wo were husband and wife. Brother Shepard wished us a blessing, and gave us a good exhortation, as did some others. Another prayer was offered, after which all united in singing the one hundred aud fir-t Psalm." This w is followed by a short sermon from the groom. A General Overhauling. Dumley (at the supper table) Yes, I have spent most of the day at the den tist's.

Singular Instances of Spontane ous Combustion. Accounting for Flames in Cot ton Bales, Etc. Scarcely a month passes that careful investigation into the causes of fires doe3 not reveal some new hazard of greater or less importance, or make known instances of the starting of lires under circumstances hitherto considered impossible. Cotton in bales has always been sup posed to be free from spontaneous com bustion until lately, when a case was discovered in a storehouse in Northern New Jersey. A number of bales of S?a Island cotton stored there wero found to be on fire, and when it was extin guished in one spot it would break out in another. A careful examination of the cotton aud its condition showed that t was roller gin cotton that is, cotton which had not been run through a gang of saws, after the method of Eli Whit ney, but the liat had been drawn away from the seeds by a pair of rolls, ono large and one small, set at just the dis tance to keep the seeds from passing through, while the fibre passes on and goes into a bag. It was found in this lot of cotton that some of the seeds had passed into the rolls and been cracked, which caused the oil to exude, saturating the fiber, which was thus by tho timo it arrived in the North in the proper condition for spontaneous combustion. Careful and extensive iuquiry among Northern mills failed to reveal ny other such case, and therefore it can hardly be taken as a strong objection against tho use of roller gins in general. The ordinary roller gin is practically a prehistoric tool, as it has been in ihc sinco cotton was known in ancient India. It i? not nearly so fast as the ordinary saw gin, but is said to do its work somewhat better and with the least possible in jury to the fiber, and to be therefore preferred for Sea Island cotton, which is of long fibor, and almost double the value of the ordinary grades. Another curious fire was that which occurred in a knife factory in Massachu setts. Iu the middle of a room a small milling machine was working on hard wood handles of knives. The du-t or small fragments of the wood whi'-h were ground off were drawn up through a metal tube about one foot ia diameter by a blower in the room above, and then forced through a wooden pipe out into the air. A spark from an emery wheel, fifteen feet away from the milling machine, struck a window twenty feet away, and glancing back entered tho mouth of the metal tube and set the hardwood dust on fire, a stream of which twenty feet in length poured out into the air. The alarm was given by the pcoplo outside, the workmen in the room beiug entirely unaware of any fire. Another peculiar instance was a fire started by soma cotton waste which an engineer iu cleaning up a mill put in front of a boiler where it would bo con venient for the fire to burn in the morn ing. During the night the waste got on fire from spontaneous combustion and set fire to the kindlings and succeeded in raising sufficient steam to came tho boiler to blow off, very thoroughly scar ing the watchman, who naturally thought the boiler, which he knew had been left without a fire, was going to ex plode. i , : 1 1 i , mm anotucr singular case that of a fire caused in picker room of a jute mill by a driving a nail in the ceiling. The was the man nail glauccd off and was struck by the rapid ly moving beaters, and the sparks which wero caused thereby led to n serious blaze. New York Fire aud Water. "Sleep Off" a Headache. A scientific writer say.: "Sleep, if taken at the right moment, will prevent an attack of nervous headache. If the subjects of such headach -s will watch the symptoms of its coining, they can notice that it begins with a feeling of weariness and heaviness. This is the time that a sleep of an hour or two, as nature guides, will effectually prevent the headache. If not taken just then it will be too late, for after the attack is fairly under way it is impossible to get sleep until far into the night, perhaps. It is so common in these days for doc tors to forbid having their patients waked to take medicine, if they are asleep when the hour comes round, that the people have learned the lesson pret ty well,' and they generally know that sleep is better for the sick than medicine. But it is not well known that sleep is a wonderful preventive of disease better than tonic regulators and stimulants." The Mouth. The mouth contains seventeen distinct species of micro organism, according to M. Vignal, who has of late succeeded in isolating and cultivating them, and test ing their action on foods. Of these or- I ganisms, 7 dissolve cooked alhumcn; o swell it, or reader it transparent; 10 dissolve fibrin; 4 render it transparent, or swell it; 9 dissolve gluten; 3 trans form starch, but only 1 acts with some j energy; another seems to live upon it i i. . j i dui wnnout translormmg it; 7 co.igu late milk ; 6 dissolve casein ; 9 transform lactose into lactric acid: 7 intervert cane, 7 cause glucose to ferment, and transform it partially into alcohol.

A cherry tree of tho white Oxhcart variety on the premises of John Capura of Oroville, Cal., bore, this year, 2800 pounds of fruit. It is eighteen years old, is sixty feet high and six feet in circumference. A tree called the umbrella tree of Japan, now growing in a yard at Talla hassee, Fia., though only three years old, has leaves on it that measure 21x10 inches. It is umbrella-shaped, and makes a shelter that is impervious to sunshine or rain. The carriage which was made by the United States Government especially for the use of Lafayette during his visit to this country in 1S24 is owned iu Chi cago.

He has been so since boyhood, and with the exception of his irregular form is a perfectly healthy man. Consumption or pneumonia would ccrtaiuly be his death, they say. Patches of Discolored Water. Patches of discolored water arc often observed at sea in positions where the depth is known to be so great as to pre clude any idea of there being shoal water. Very often such discolorat ions are due to masses of floating seaweed, the well-known gulf weed, for instance, but here tho cause is very evident, ex. cept at a distance. In other cases dense swarms of minute organism, foram iuifera, or medusa", arc thy cause, and whales are often seen feeding on them. Another cause sometimes assigned is that ejections of mud from submarine vol canoes, or clouds of sediment stirred up from the sea bottom by submarine earth quakes, reach the surface. Finally, it is well known tint alluvial sediment is brought down by rivers aud carried out to sea, where it is somtimcs taken up by ocean currents and transportc I great distances. To the eastward of the Windward Islands such reports were formerly so common as to give rise to the idea that there was shoal water, but since careful soundings have proved the contrary it has been thought that the discolorations were due to submarine volcanic action along aline of disturbance approximate ly parellcl to, and to the eastward of the Windward Islands. Along the north eastern coast of South America sediment from the rivers along the coast is prob ably the cause in most cases, the Amazon and Orinoco especially bringing it down in vast quantities, and the northwesterly current transporting it along tho coast. Idiosyncrasies of PI ants. An English reviewer of a book by Mr. Charles Roberts, called "The Natural ist's Diary," mentions the idiosyncrasis of certain plants and animals as a fea ture to which more attention might be given. Thus, a quantity of seed taken from the same plant at the same time, and sown under the same conditions so far as possible, will nevertheless exhibit very great variation in the length of time required for germination. The fact enforces the circumstances that the same amount of aggregate temperature and of water-supply, the same conditions of soil, etc., do not necessarily imply corresponding identity of result. The same thing happens to trees. Every one knows how some individual horse-chestnut trees are year by year more precocious iu their development than their fellows. It sometimes hap pens, too, that one branch of one tree is considerably in advance of the others. Some persons might call these cases of exceptions, but they are hardly that. Since they are connected with the imin body of habitudes by every possible gradation, they are to be considered as extremes rather than as exceptions, and therefore to be included in the makina up of averages.

He lives close to nature, his only education is gained in nature's school, i When the Indian receives an injury, he does not seek a cure in mineral poisons, but binds on the simplo leaf, administers the herbal tea, and, with nature's aid, comes natural recovery. Our rugged ancestors, who pief Ced the tvil derness, built their uncouth but comfortable log cabin?, which irt time became tho broad, fertile fields of the modern farmer, found in roots and herbs that lay close at hand na ture's potent remedies for all their common ailments. It was rnly in very serious cas?s they sjnt for oil sadde-lass" with his physic, which quite as often killed as cured. Latter daj' society has wandered too far away from nature, in every way, for its own good. Our grandfathers and grandmothers lived wholesomer, purer, better, h?alth:cr, more natural lives than wo do. Their minds were not filled with noxious isms, nor their bodies saturated with poisonous di tigs. Is it not time to make a change, to return to the simple vegetable preparations of our grandmothers, which contained th3 power and jH)tency of nature a3 remedial agents, and in all the ordinary ailments were effica cious, at least harmless? Tho proprietors of Warner's Log Cabin Remedies have thought so, and have put on the market a number of these puro vegetable preparations, made from formulas secured after patient searching into the annals of tho past, so that those who want them neol not be without them. Among these Log Cabin remedies will be found "Log Cabin SarBaparilla." for tho Log Lab.n hcapme,'' for strengthening and renewing the hair; "Log Cabin Extract," for both external and internal application; "Log Cabin Liver rills,"; "Log Cabin Rosa Cream,"' an old but effective remedy for catarrh, and "Log Cabin Piasters." All these remedies are carefully prepared from recipes which wero found, after long investi gation, to have been those moat successfully used by our grandmothers of "je olden time." They are the simple, vegetable, effi cacious remedies of Jxg Cabin days. An American Editor at (Sravlotte. Editor Murafc Halstead was at Grav lotte in 1870, and saw as much of that battle as any one could sec. He said that it was all smoko and confusion, however, to an unprofessional mind. It was difficult to tell what was taking place. While he was waiting about, Bismarck came along, riding with our Phil Kheridan. Halstead called out to Sheridan to tell him briefly what had taken place. Sheridan did not recog nize him until he had taken off his hat, and then he said : "Hello, Halstead! What are you doing down here V" Halstead replied iu an off-hand way, "1 am just down here looking about. I thought it might bo interesti g." At this word "interesting"' Lismarck burst out laughing. "If that is not an American way of putting it," said ho. "So you think it is interesting," and again tie laughed. Bismarck treated him very politely after Sheridan introduced him, but ho would not give him permission to buy a horse, and the editor, footsore anil weary, had to make his way as best ho could to the nearest railway station. Mr. Halstead had a number of in teresting experiences during this war. He said that he used to be arrested about thirty times a day. He never had any difficulty with the higher (Ger man officials. From tliem he always re ceived courtesy and attention,' but from the subordinates he never re ceived anything but incivility and dis courtesy.
