will apply to all evergressus u well as
all kinds of fruit trees, except that the

few years—most kinds, the longer the
better. There may be tares where new-
ly-phuated trees might be saved by wa-
tering frequently and regularly during a
long dry summer, but I am convinced by
observation test scones of trees are killed
by watering at limiting time and occa-
sionally afterward, where one is saved
by it. I have wveral thousand trees
and bushes ou may place which I have
planted with "my own two hands," in-
cluding red and white cedar, white pine,
Norway and native spruce, black wal-
nut, butternut, maple and all wanner of
fruits. I have learned by experience
that if we plant trees (any kind) proper-
. ly, it is nu more unreasonable to expect
them to grow than if we plant so many
hills of corn or putatees--[Hustutudtuan.

An exchange speaks of the departure
of an old settlor of Dakota, where he
will take up a quarter section of land
and start again in life at the age of seventy.
The nen had a nice farm near • splen-
did town, where he had lived and
br,eglst up • family. He got tired of
fanning, sold the farm for 66,000, mov-
ed to town and went into the livery
business, and in throe years went through
everything except a team and a lumber
waggon, and now he has packed up and
gone to Dakota, with $ heart heavier
than his pocketbook, and he will die out
there. The number of fanners that dr
vide to go to town to live, every year,
and go into business, se appalling.
Every town has thew, and nine out of
ten become pour. They vet an idea
that town business men are the hapviest
people on earth and have an easy time,
std they gut to brooding over their hard
life, and they think anybody can run a
store, a grocery, or a livery stable, and
they sell out the farm and go into busi-
ness in town. The moot of then go in-
to the grocery business, because it seems
so easy to weigh out sugar and tea.
They can always find a grocery man who
will sell out the remains :,f a sick stock
of grooeriee for ready cash, and when
the farmer first sees- his name over the
door of • grocery he feels as though he
was trade, and polis his thumbs in the
armholes of his vest- The farmer's girls
and buys soon realize that they are mer-
chants's sons and daughters, instead of
farmer's, and they have to keep up with
the procession. There have to be lots
of things bought as merchants that
would never be thought of as farmers.
The farm -house furniture is not good
enough, -the democrati. waggon gives
place to $ carriage, the old [nares give
piste to high steppers, and the girls
dross better and do nut work. The
family lives out of the grucery, the boys
play ball, and the girls go to big parties.
The farmer is a good fellow, and trusts
many other good fellows who can't pay,
and in some cases he geta to drinking.
Bills begin to come in, and he can't col-
lect enough money to pay rent. Friends

HU HURON 8IONAL, FRIDAY, SEPT. 11%, 1882,
swarf £,wka
Some contemporary papers are advis-
ing the choise of dwarf apple trees for
planting in gardens or other limited
grounds. But the apple is only effec-
tively dwarfed on the Paradise stock—
"Jerusalem apple" --a sort which natu-
rally grows only three or four feet high;
has bright bark and deep green leaves
which look very well; but it has an irre-
gular, untidy habit of growth, and very
brittle wood, apt to snap short off when
• load of fruit and racking winds put a
strain upon it. The borer, too, affects it
more than other apple stems, so that on
the whole its culture is difficult. Its
own fruit, engrafted, is a mawky, biro
ter -sweet, but other apples grafted upon
it attain superior else, color and quality.
For those who can take adequate care
of the trees, such sort as Summer Ruse,
Maiden Blush, Keswick, Codlin, Sum-
mer Pippin, Jonathan, Mother, ac., are
admirably fine from grafts upon this
stock. The grafts should be set in at
east some inches above the surface, in
order not to make roots themselves and
convert the trees into standards. For
general planting in gardens it is best to
select sorts of naturally dwarf growth,
such u the Rose, the Keswick, the Joe,
the Hawthornden, he., which begin too
bear when only two or three years old,
and go on bearing so freely as to keep
themselves of dwarf size. If grafted on
Duncan stock, which is sometimes called
Paradise, it is not much dwarfed, but
is enduring, and has very numerous
fibrous roots capable of feeding freely
from • limited space, and is therefore
specially suitable for garden planting.
starting tut of their •ockets. They
crawl over and emir theta, no doubt
wondering why they du not feed them.
The noise they make 1s dreadful. If
one could itnadlre saeself surrounded
by four or live thousand beanie babies,
an crying together, he mould have some
lilts of it, for the toll seals' cries are
very touch like these of a child. These,
motherless, lie at last in groups of four
stiff five, dying on the ice; their heads
becoming the Mga•t part of their bodies
as they starve slowly to death. It is
suggested that this atrocious system of
procuring the skins of seals sh.•uld be
prevented by securing by international
treaty a close time fur the seals whi e
they are rearing their young. But the
author argues that, for the sake of leery
aluue, Luau has nu right W dispose of the
lives of brute animals, and in no case is
he justified to inflict put and torture ea
them, when this can be avoided."
Ahad of the Farts.
The fit•dw chaffs the Tory organs ou
their tx,wardice ir► withholdimg frau their
readers the true facts in the boundary
question. It says:
The Tory organs in Ontario dare not let
their readers see the part of Mr Mous-
seau's speech in which the tQuebue Prem-
ier stated that he and Mr Manson would
only cousent to enter the Dominion Cab-
inet on the express promise that the On-
tario Award should be repudiated.
The Tory organs also refused to pub-
liah an important State paper—Mr now-
at's despatch—on the Boundary question -
"because it was too long." The extract
from Mr Mousseau's speech, however,
would not take up one inch of space.
The Globe and the Reform press gen-
erally have given both sides of the ques-
tion, and did not object to Sir John Mac-
donald's despatch "because it was too
.long." The difference is:the Globe is not
afraid of the enemy's case; the Tory or-
gans can only afford to print their own
version.
Mr Mousseau in addressing hisconati-
tutents the ether day referred to the
boundary award and reminded them that
at a meeting at St. Jerome, in„ 1878, in
the presence of Hon, Mr Masson, he ex-
pressed his disapproval of the award.
He said:
I laid down the condition, on which
we would hold our position as member
of the Dominion Cabinet. * * 1
said that, if the Province of Ontario is to
acquire an additional territory of 62,00a,
000 acres more than she was gives under
the British North America Act, the
Province of Quebec would have the right
demand an equivalent. * * It
would be impossible for the province of
Quebec to remain in this position if Ont-
ario gained her case, beauseany improve-
ment to her position must be followed by
an equal one in Jurs.
Commenting on that declaration the
Montreal Jouned of Commerce remarks:
It is certainly not an unusual occur-
rence to have boundary disputes left to
arbitration. What is unusual is for one
Government to repudiate an agreement
entered into by another. Great Britain
did not like the award regarding the
boundary between the United States and
British Columbia, and the United States
did not like the fishery aware, but it
would be thought in Great Britain simp-
ly disgraceful fur one Government to
repudiate a formal agreement made by
another government of opposite politics.
Whatever may be the merits of the On-
tario boundary award, it must not be
forgotten that both Sir George Cartier
and Mr. Cawchon, and the Govern-
ment of Sir John A. Macdonald claimed
for United Canada, on ),ehalf of Onta-
rio, a much more extensive territory
than was awarded to it by the arb:tra-
tors. Mr. Mousseau has taken pains to
establish his personal responsibility in
conjunction with Mr. Masson for the
most disgraceful act that has been com-
mitted by Canada since she obtained
self-government, viz. the deliberate re-
pudiation of an agreement formally en-
tered into into between the Dominion
Government and the Province of Onta-
rio. Whatever opinions may be held as
to the best (node of adjusting such a
difference, it is clear that the Govern
menta concerned agreed to refer it to
arbitration with the result of an unani
mous award.
