It is estimatated that about 810,000,000 has been invested in coffee-houses as an antidote of the saloon in England. It is said there are ithout 7,000 of them, em- ploying 56,000, end they are a paying investment. There is a large decrease in the visible supply of wheat in the United States and Canada, the amount being abont ten millions less than a year ago. The sugar market at Toronto is fairly active and higher prices being Ze. higher than they were a week ago. The market has raised le. in addition to the duty ofe. owing to improvement in demand and higher prices at leading markets. In Montreal and in the Province of Quebec generally business is More active. but the spirit of contions boying is still largely in evidence, and it is want should be so. Money is sauce in the country parts, and slow remittance show the dif- ficulty merchants have in collecting from the fanner. Improvement is looked for in this respect as soon as cheesesmaning is in full swing. though present indica- tions point to very low opening, prices. Easiness in wholesale eireles at Toronto is fairly satisfartory. Merehnalth are pleased with the out look and they fully expect to make increased profits. The strength and higher prices for leading products is the encoeraging feature. In consequence of the limited supply of hides and the excited state of the market, deal- ers in leather clo net feel inclined to make sale, Farmers are obtaining good prices for their live stock. and the season now open- ing is encouraging to skippers. There have been &little irregularity in prices of wheat in Ontario in sympathy with out- side markets, but the tone at the close yesterday was firm.

Peon Bailey, of the Cornell Experiment Station, gives the following surnmery of the roles for successful orcharcling : If orchards are to be made profitable, they must receive as good care as other crops. Good drainage, natural or artificial, is essential to success. Trees are impetivue of wet feet. Well -drained lands are dryer in wet spells and moister in dry spells than ether lands. They can be worked earlier in spring. Goad tilage increases the food supply of the soil, end also conserves its nims- ture. Trees should be made to send their roots deep into the soil, in order to fortify themselves against drought. This is done by draining the soil and plowing the or- chard xather deep. This deep plowing should begin the very, year the trees are set, and it should be continued tienry spring until the habit • of the trees is oeteblished. Moisture is eetained in the upper sell by very frequent but shallow tillage, by means of which the surface of the land becomes a mulch for the soil beneath. Tillage should be begun just as soon as the ground is dry enough in spring. ' This tillage should be repeated tlF, often as once in tun days throughout the grow- ing season, which extends from spring until July or August. Tillage should not exist for the purpose of killiiig weeds. Weeds have taught the most important lesson in agriculture, to be sure, but the schoolmaster should now be able to retire. Late cultivation may be linjurious by inducing a late growth. At all events, it can lee of small utility when the tree be- gins to mature and ram becomes frequent. This season. of respite gives the grower the opportunity of raising a green man- ure, and of adding fertility to his land at triffing expense and with no harm to his tree. Fall plowing may be advisable for farm crops, bet it should generally be discour- aged in orchards. The land in orchards should be left compact in the fall, and it is advisable to cover it with some close herbage. Only cultivated crops should be allowecl in orchards early in the season. Grain and hay should. never be grown. Nursery stock should not be grown in orchards. Even hoed or cultivated crops may rob the trees of moisture and fertility it they aro allowed to stand above the tree roots. Cultivators is the best crop to raise in an orchard. Sod is sometimes allowable in apple and standard pear orchards'but never in other fruit plantations; but even then it should be pastured closely with sheep or hogs. If the stook is fed at the same time the land will fare better. Watch a sod orchard. It will begin to 'fail before yoa know it. Probably nine -tenths of the apple or- chards of New York State are in sod, and many of them are meadows. Of course they are failing. The remedy for these apple failures is to cut down many of the orchards. For the remainder, the treatment is caltiva- tion, fertilizing, spraying—the trinity of orthodox apple growing. In general, level culture is best. The modern cultivators and harrows make such cultivation easy. Trees, especially apples are often train- ed. too high, because of t:.he difficulty of working close to them. Modern tools will bring the heads within reach. Harnesses with no projectinnehomes or metal turretscl should be used bearing, orchards. These requiring no whiffietrees are also useful. Potash is the chief fertilizer to be ap- plied to fruit trees, particularly after they come into bearing.. Potash may be had hn wood ashes and muriate of potash. It is rnost commonly usecl in the latter form. An annual ap- plication of potash should be made upon bearing orchards. 'Of the muriate from 5 10 to 7. It, pounds may be usecito the acre in mature orchards.

Whether a farmer can use m lull or lit- tiemineral fertilizer meet depend on how much he 'can make by it, his may ase very little ancl llSe it cm siren (Toes that the increased yield will not pay him. He may use large amounts and make propor- pertionately large profit. So long as the: increased crop pays its cost and some- thing. in additionethe farmer cannot a,f- ford: to do without it, and if he be a shrewd fame,: he will not attenipt to do so. Mineral manares are preeetical aids to soil fertility. They are not merely stim- ulants to the crop, as ueed to be thought,. but if they are used in connectionwith frequent seeding with clowr the mineral fertilizer will a,e surely inereaen fertility as will a dressingof stable manure. There is less liability that the mineral fertilizer will become soluble and be wash - oat of the soil, for its tendency is to form compounds in the soil that cmly the most vigorous feeders among plants will. be able to unlook. Wheihver mineral ferti- lizins have been applied year after year 'the growing of clover is especially advan- tageous, as this plant can reach potash en -d, phosphates that would be lost if the land e ere continuously cropped with. grein. Phosphoric Acid is the seeund import- ant fertilizer to be applied artifically to orchards. It may be got as plain high- grade super -phosphate (dissolved South Carolina rock), in the bone fertilizers, and. perhaps in Thomas slag. Of the plain super -phosphates, from. 8e... to 5s, pounds. may be applied. to the acre. Nitrogen cau be obtained cheapest.1(y means 0± thorough tillage (to proneste nitrification) and nitrogenous green .:noe- nures.- There is rarely occasion for buy- ing it for fruit plantations, if the lands eee properly tilled and eropped. Nitrogen promotes growth. It should,. therefore be used with great caution, for orchard trees should be grown for fruit rather than for timber. Barn manures are generally- more eco- nomically used when applied to finen crops than when applied to orchards, yet they can be used with good results, partieulaen ly when rejuvenating old orchards. In general, the commercial complete fertilizers are less rational in orchards. than it fertilizer made for the occasion outs of materials evidently needed for ths. trees; but the complete fertilizers give much better resells than .the prevailing indifference and neglect. Cultivation may be stopped late in ths. season., ancl a crop can then be sown upon the 'encl. The crop may serve as a cover or pretuction to the soil and as a green, manure. A. green manure improves .the soil by adding fiber to it and by increasing its. fereility. It catches the nitrates Which,. eardier in the season, are used by the tree roots. Vegetable fiber in the soil increases its power of holding both moisture and plant food. The crops well adapten to this tete sew- ing:are few. Vetch it probably the best which has been well tested in this State. But everything points to eriinson clover as the ideal orchard cover and grie manure. 10.0HTI Evan. A. writer in the American Cultivator, in urging a larger use anznanure per acre says that it is always the aim of farmers to grow more of the crops which tend to increase soil fertility, either by making' more nitrogen in the soil or by mcreasing, the solubility of its inin.eral plaeit food.. But there is euro to be great competition in growing these crops, and, except in making the soil more fertile, they do not give the profit that is made with crop which exhaust fertility more rapidly. The question whether farmers should use the mineral manures is wholly one of profit or loss such use involves. In local- ities far removed from market, a,nd where land is of little value, the slow method of increasing fertility by growing renovating crops .is often the only one that can be adopted. Bat where markets are near and the land is valuable this slow method is mom expensive than any other. market gardener uses mob year more per acre of manure than would buy an acre of rich land 41 lees favorable locality. But he can well afford to do this. Ire sells the crop sometimes for five or six hundred dollars per aerie, more than pay- ing for all expended itt growingit, both itt manure and labor. Less exposure of milk and cream to the atmosphere; no sour milk nor cream in summer, with their attendantevils; more butter per hundred pounds of milk, and lessened labor, are advantages possessed by this system over the shall -ow pans, Be it remembered., however, that unless it temperature of 46 0 or 'owes, be preserve ed during all the time of setting, the shal- low pan will enive bettor results than th.e deep can. l'he churning of deep can cream, making of the butter, etc" will be disoussed in a later ettichn Holiowey's Corn Cure is specifie for the removal of corns end waits.
