suds, after the liquid has become stale,
is a powerful Means of promotitig veget-

Some have considered suds to be equal

This, however, is probably an exagger-
ated estimate, yet,. we want no addi-
tional corroboration to satisfy as of its
intrinsic worth 'as a vegetable stiniul-•

that the decaying rn-4tter oa suds Ido

TREE RooTs.—The editor of the
,Vardener's Monthly says he found, near-
ly twenty-five years ago, that the root
fibres of trees were (uy annual,a—like
the leaves, they die every year. They
have the same relation to the main
roots as the leaves have to the branches
except; that while the iaaves are the
preparers of food,"—tliew
fibres a re the' -p rovid ers—th e husband -
men of the cooks. Take up very care-
fully a young tree, and we find that
the fibres are nearly all on tbe surface,
and that they decrease in number ,and
importatme with. every i•neh of denth•
In the largest trees scarcely a fibre
will be found one fret from the top.
Large ti ees---:-tap roots—you may and
will find, but no root that is to the
Slightest benefit of the nutrition of the
tree.
-SELECTING .Cows. ---` A Vermonter'
gives tae following as his rules , for se-
lecting a cow : First, I get a broadside
view of the animal, at the distance of
S.bout two rods, as I have noticed for
years that there was a great similarity
•in the general proportions of all first
class milkers, being very small in girth
just k of their f,rward lgs, as com-
pared with the girth just forward of
their hips. I never knew a first rate
milkerof any breed; not thus pro-
portioned ; so that if this firm is 'want-
ing in an animal reommended to me, .1 -
• do not care to look at hermore, unless
want a breeder for some other pur-
pose than the dairy. For breeding ox-
en I ghouid want a cow of reverse pro -
e. 1,arger girth foi ward,.4
next feel the size of the milk veins, and
trace theni to their entrance into the
chest, which, in superior cows ai.e large
schnitting the ball of the larger finger;
if divided, or subdivided, as is some-
times the case, 1 judge of the size of
-.each orifice, as I care less' for; the vein'
:itself; than the orifice. Next I ex-
amine, by sight and touch, the udder
‘or bag, -which must be capacious in
.order to hord much milk, with teats
wide apart and free. from large .seed
'warts, or sores of any kind : I then in-
quire how long she goes dry before
calving, as I don't want a family cow to
give milk less than foaty-six weeks out
of eveLy•twenty-two ; also to the qu_ali-
ty,ofinftk .: and to close, I milk her
with my, own hands.
SCRAPING 'APPLE TREE-S.—A farmer le -
tiding in the western part of Massachu-
setts had, many years since, •an old orch-
ard, many of whose trees were encased
in a rough coating of bark. Their pro-
ductive days seemed to be- over, • and
the owner ‘was counting upon a good.
supply of firewood from thein the ensu-
ing xvinteP. It was suggested to him
that if the bodies ot the trees were
well scraped, an improvement in yield
might' redultIrom the operation. Some
twenty ofthem were subjeAed to a
Vigorous application Of the hoe and the
rough coating thorouglily removed. The
ensuing season showed- a marked im-
provement for their production, the
.credit of which, whether -correct or not
was assigned to the operation qf the
hoe.

Scalping a Woman.
TR:E. :$.EAFORTH gsxposT.7'r611...
.RoBERT:mtuitRi
An Irishman, named Thomas Dur-
ban), was brought- before the Woliver-
hampton borough magistrates recently,
charged with an outrage Upon a.woman
who is lying at ..the point of death.
A few nights ago he had displayedquarrelsom behavour in the Shalcespear
public house, whieli is in the midst of
iron works aud iron boundaries, and he
_was turned out. Outside he continued
to manifest his bellicose disposition,
and deelared that ,k,e would show the
English what the Irish could do. Turn-
ing the corner of the first street be came
to lielmet a woman and assulted her..
Ber part was talen by ont Mrs. Fan-
ny Churn, who reinonstrated with him.
Upor. this he. left uff assaulting the
first ,wornan, and, turning upon Mrs.
Churn, pulled her back by the bonnet,
which came off: . He then laid holt of
lfer back hair, and with what is believed
to have been a razor, as skillfully as
though he had been an Indian scalped
his victim. That whieli is believed to
be her dying testimony, has been taken,
and the prisoner, who was arrested soon
after the offence, trembling in the corn-
er. of a cellar, in which he had taken re-
!fuge from the police, who were upon
his tract, -tvas remanded to Stafford goal
for a. week.
OneCause of High Prices.
A correspondent of the Boston Tra-
veller tells the following:
A lady entered A's store one day,
recent inquiring the price of butter,
and asked:
"What is it, Mr. .A., that makes but-
ter so high ?"
"Peering over hid spectaales at, the
lady ,our friend replied :
"1 ianos, madam."
. She thought that he mast have mis-
understood her query, and repeated it;
sayirio,t', "1 asked you what you thought
madebu tter so- high -I"
"Yes," said the imperturable grocer,
"itis pianos," and proceeded to explain
himself in this wise
-"Forfy years ag6 my father was
Sheriff for the courts of this County,
and:just before the session of the court
he traveled about in a-',1 parts of the
co in t.y, 1eai ngliis wi tnesses su annonses.
Such days were iny riding holidays, as
I was taken along to assist in leaving
these notices , and according to my
memory, we'ch is petty good, nine out
of tenof the hundreds of calls thus
made, brought to my view the ever -
going, never -tiring churn, with a healthy
and sometimes pretty farmer's daugh-
ter attached to it. flanked by a spinning
wheel tended by grandma, and a house -
loom, before which sat a notable house-
wife...
n
" those days everybody made but-
ter, and it sold. for from 8 to 12 cents
s. pound; but on a recent vist to.some
of these old rounds, for old acquaint-
ance sake, :what did 1 find I Not
the churn, nor the spinning-lv heel, nor
he loom. _They bad been long since
banished, and in their place I found the
piano. Now, madam, said the old
gentleman, "You will unierstand -why
I think the cause of the high price of
butter is pianos."
Sleeping Together.
The Laws of Life says :—More quar-
rels arise between brothers, between
sisters, between hired girls, between
6choo1 girls, between hired clerks in
-stores, between apprentioes in mechanic
shops, between hired men, between
buSbands and Wives; OviriUg to electri-
i cal changes through which their ner-
ivous systems go by lodging night after
n'gl.t under the same bed-clothes.than
by almost any other disturbing cause.
There is nothing that will so derange
the nervous system as a person who
is absor'oent in nervous force. The ab-
sorber will go to aleep and rest all night,
while the eliminator will be tumbling
and tossing, restless and nervous, and
wake up in the morning fretful, fault-
finding, peevish and discouraged. No
two persons,- no matter who they are,
shoald habitually, sleep together. One
will thrive and the other lose. This is
the law, and in married life it is defied
almost universally.
DEATH CP THE INVENTOR OF THE
REAPING MAcuraTE.—The Rev. Patrick
Bell, D.L.D., minister of Carinyllie, in
the Presbytery of Arbroath, the well
known inventor of the reaping machine,
died on Thursday, Apul 22nd, at the
manse of,Carinvllie. The - deceased
gentleman was the son of a farmer in
4
Auchterhouse, 'Forfarshire, where he
was born, And his brothers. -were suc-
cessful farmers in that county, an in
Perthshire. He attended the scladol at
Murroes, and studied afterward a at St
Andrew's University, where,asi)itougli-
Put life, he distinguished himself in
Mathemauics and their application to
physics; He had a great hking for all
the branches of natr.r.a1 philosophy. It
was in 1827, while he was a student,
that Dr. Bell invented the reaping ma-
chine, which was first v'Sed in the field
in 1828, on a farm in Perthshire, held
by his brother,'Mr. George Bell:
