SETBACKS IN FRUIT O11LT1IRE.
Defective i'arletiox, convenors, Sell, nod
Pruning, IM'erlontlnd Trees.
There aro six general drawbacks to the
successful aultivo tion of fine fruit, whioh,
if understood and acted upon by land own-
ers generally throaghout the country, would
give fruit of much higher quality than is
raised at the present time.
The first of those is a defective selection
of varieties. Many of second-rate quality are
new in bearing where they might bo yield-
ing delicious fruit, or they may be deficient
in productiveness, or command only low
price ,n market. It is well worth while for
the owners of orchards to inform theinseldes
as to the finest varieties.
The second deficiency on the part of
owners is bad cultivation, and weeds and
grass are allowed to grow among the trees,
causing scabby fruit.
The third drawback is caused by a hard
and n'gleoted soil, and no attention is given
to enriching and keeping the surface proper-
ly pulverized. The trees make a feeble
growth, bear poor fruit and diminshed
crops
]sad pruning ie the fourth drawback, and
it may be an entire neglect allowing the
trees to become a mass of brush, or on the
other hand they may be badly mutilated
by excessive cutting. In preference to this
treatment no pruning should ever be given
except for the removal of defective and
crooked branches, and for giving an even
and uniform head.
A most important operation is the fifth,
and consists of properly thinning the fruit;
when the (roes are overloaded the Drop can
not make a fine growth, and the tree is in-
jured by overbearing. The work of thin-
ning should be commenced early and before
the tree has been exhausted. Where it is
obvious early in the season that an un-
profitable amount of fruit is set, the work
of thinning should be commenced.
A regular system should bo ndapted, and
the large fruits such as usually attain two
or three inches in diameter should be thin-
ned to five or six inches asunder. Smaller
kinds of fruit may bo left correspondingly
near together. Such treatment will greatly
increase their size as well as improve the
quality. Many heavy bearers among ap-
ples and pears should have the number
reduced to less than one -halt, but this will
by no means reduce the bulk of the crop.
In erperdments whioh have been matte the
specimens have grown so much larger, even
when thinned to twn-thirds, that the
amount has continued as large as on un -
thinned trees. A great abridgement of
labor has been affected by the rapid work
which may be performed by speedily get-
ting rid of these cast-off specimens Instead
of allowing them to grow mud require hand-
picking in gathering and assorting for the`
market,
The sixth drawback is in allowing insects
to injure and destroy the trees and punc-
ture and spoil the fruit. The owners,
therefore, should make themselves familiar
with the habits of the caterpillars, canker
worms, curculios, and the many other de-
stroyers. These six points properly attend-
ed to will make all the difference between
fruit of the finest quality, and such as may
be injured by a scabby surface and render-
ed worthless by bad flavor.
Dangeroae Weeds.
P. L. Harvey, the botanist of the Maine
experiment station, in answer to an inquiry
of a correspondent, says, in a recent
report, that the fall dandelion is a native of
Eur'lpe but is thoroughly naturalized in the
United States and Canada, and quite wide.
ly spread. It is especially plentiful in Now
England and a bad weed. Being an abun-
dant seeder and a perennial itis hard to ex.
terminate. It grows under the most un-
favorable circumstances and will replaoo
grass in meadows. Should it become too
abundant there is no way to destroy It ex-
cepting oultivation in some hoed crop until
it disappears, The plants about roadsides,
edges of lawns and fields should be pulled
by the roots or kept from seeding by careful
mowing.
Occasionally a field is noticed nearly
overrun with it. Roadsides are prolific
seed gardens that supply the public gratis
with an abundance of seeds of the vilest
weeds, The town authorities should be
empowered by law to exterminate patches
of weeds that appear ;and might become
treeof
the centres distribution of troublesome
pests. ,
The question so pointedly asked by Mr.
Paine, whether "we are at tile mercy of our
neighbors in the matter of spreading weeds"
is ono that should seriously olaim the at-
tention of the legislature. There should
be a lawp(eventing ferment from harboring
vile weeds in their fields or letting them
grow at the roadsides on their premises.
On property for whioh no one is especially
responsible, the dangerous weeds should be
eradicated at public expense. Why do not
farmers urge dome enactment for their pro.
taction? There should be a law subjecting
Beed sold in the state to inspection. The
character of the Beed sown is as important
as the fertilizer used,

Hospital for Oowa.
In every well appointed dairy there must
be a hospital for the cows, arranged with
a view to the needs of it, Icor a small herd,
two separate staple in au isolated building,
as °erringe house or a granary, if one is
not specially made for this purpose, will
be sufficient, This stall is largo enough for
it cow to move in freely ; it has 0. feeding
trough, bub no other fittings, The cow is
left loose in it. l he litter should be easy.
dust. No window or other light than that
which leaks in is needed, It is a plaoe for
quiet rest. .Here the now is removed as
soon as the arrival of the calf is indicated,
and is cared for in the usual manner by the
usual attendant. Nothing strange is to
happen to dieburb her. She is watched,
and as soon as the calf appears it is remov.
ed to a distant pen kept for the calves
alone. Tho oalt never knows the dam. The
dam never recognizes the calf. 'rho instinct
is thus never excited, and thio precaution
is a most effective prevention against the
fatal milk fever, a wholly nervous disorder.
The attention of the now is diverted from
her condition by a mess of palatable oat-
meal or linseed meal slop, a little warm,
This affords precisely the soothing and
nutritious refreshment needed by the cow,
and she will lie down and rest quietly. In
six hours she is milked and the milk is
given to the calf, which, with a little pa.
tient guiding, will drink the milk. This
gets rid of the inatinot of the calf to suck,
and the cow to be sucked, for the future ;
and after two or three times the cow falls
directly into this artificial habit, while the
second generation of calves lose their in-
stinctive habit and drink on the first pres-
entation of the pail of milk.
No such nuisances as self -sucking cowo,or
heifers that suck all or any of the cows in
the herd are known in a dairy thus rnanag•
ed. The oalveo thrive better and grow
more quickly, and are far less disposed to
any viciousness. They are artificial, having
lost mush of the natural instinct of animals
that run with the dams. It is certain they
learn nothing from the dams, and thus are
much more easily handled afterward.
Poultry Pointers.
Take only clean eggs to market, In or.
der to do this have only Olean nests.
There is a wide field open for inspection
and observation in the shipping of live
fowls for market.
It does not suffice to give the hens Dorn
corn, corn, day after day. Bird and beast
demand frequent changes of food as truly as
man himself.
The man who puts fifteen oggs under a
heu, instead of eleven or thirteen, so as to
make sure of a good lot of chioks, wants
more than he will got.
If the "shat in" hens are given a chant
at cabbage they will enjoy a treat and be
benefited. It will not take two minutes to
set out a head or two in the yard. They
will do the rest.
Do not wait till the combs and toes ars
frozen before you put the hen houses in
ordor for the winter. The extra lining and
banking and that extra window can be seen
to just as well in September ma December.
Drake, if provided with comfortable
quarters where they can rest at night and
are reasonably well fed, will often com-
mence laying the latter part of January or
the first of February and lay very regularly
until harm weather.
Geese begin to lay early in March and
will lay fourteen to eighteen eggs ; these
should nearly always be set under hens, as
it is often the case that the mother will not
becotne broody until late.
The "hock" in fowls is the part at the
first joint above the toes, or, in other words,
the plane on the leg where the feathering
stops. If the feathers projeot at this point
and are large and stiff, tite bird is said to be
"vulture hooked," as vultures have similar
appendages.
One can in general say that few eggs are
obtained from a hen that walks listlessly
along, with little desire toeoretch, but only
willing to eat when the food is spread for
it, Such hens get up late, retire early, have
large heads, thick legs and a generally
clumsy form.
An Indiana poultryman says an equal
amount of corn meal and pulverized alum,
mixed and placed in the yard, will be eaten
by ohiokene militated with cholera, to their
great benefit; also, dissolved alum in water
to drink. They will nob eat nor drink
readily, but will, as a last resort, before
famishing.
Put a tablespoonful of sulphur in the nest
as soon as the hens or turkeys are set, The
heat of the fowls causes the fumes of the
sulphur to penetrate every part of their
bodiea,every louse is killed, and, as all nits
are hatched within ten days, when the
mother leaves the neat with her brood, she
is perfectly free from nits and lice,
The business hen is the one that pays her
Way as sho goes and le never found eating
her head off two or three tines a year, She
may wear the white feathers of the Brahma
or the dark feathers of the Langshan. She
may dreaa like a Wyandotte, or in any
color to suit her taste, if she will only lay
eggs enough to be profitable she will still
be the business hen.
Do not grease chicks if it con be avoided
as too much grease is injurious, and never
use coal oil. If sho large lice are found use
lard or sweet -oil, the oil being preferred.
Ten drope of oil of pennyroyal may be
added to a large tablespoonful of the oil,
and with the finger rub one or two drops

IN A i EILED OITY.
Mrs.Leonon'ens Spends SINTearx in Slam's
1lrtre"tx—Female Palm, turd .lodges.
Mrs A.H. Leon owens, who open t six yeara
at the court of the late Ring of Siam, was
the wife of a leading English merehaut at
Singapore. She was about to rotarn to
England when the consul had a totter from
Bangkok informing him that the Ring had
charged him to find a highly -qualified Eng-
lish lady, who would accept the post of
governess, to do her " best endearormont
upon us and our children,' of whom there
were then some 05. Mrs. Leonoweus entered
upon the project, at first with reluctance,
and then with courageous enthusiasm. She
had considerable difficulty in getting the
Ring to fulfill his promise that she should
have a separate house of her own outside
the palace 110111s to live in. When finally
settled she was introduced to her pupils in
the schoolroom—the beautiful temple of
Watt Khoon Chem Manila Thai, "Temple
of the Mothers of rho Free," in the centre
of which stood a long table, finely carved,
and some gilt chairs. It was here that her
eves were fret opened to t110 sufferings and
noble qualities of the women and children
of the harem.
In the pity of Nang Harsh, or Veiled
Women,iuoiosed by the inner of two paral-
lel walla round the royal palace, live none
but women and children. The houses of
the royal princesses, the wives, concubines
and relatives of the Ring, with their
numerous claves and personal attendants,
form regular streets and avenues, with
small parks, artificialle.kes, and groups of
fine trees scattered over minature lawns and
beautiful dower gardens. These are the
residences of the princesses of Siam.
Not far off are the barracks of the Am -
zone, the women's hall of justice, and the
dungeons (where, as in the days of old, fe•
male judges daily administer justice to the
inhabitants of this woman's city), the
beautiful temple, with itslongdim gallery
and antique style of architecture, the gym-
nasium and the theatre, where the princess.
es and great ladies assemble every after-
noon to gossip, play games, or watch the
exercises of the dancing girls. In the
southern part of this strange city, whioh is
the most populous, the mechanical slaves of
the wives, concubines and princesses live
and ply their trades for the profit of their
mistresses. This woman's oily is as self.
supporting as any other in the world; it
has its own laws, its judged, police, guards,
prisons and executioners ; its markets, mer•
chants, brokers, teachers and mechanics of
every kind and degree, and every function
of every nature is exercised by women and
by them only. The permanent population
of this city is estimated at 9003.
WASHED THE TIGER.
The Daring Deed Done by 0 Cossack Jas
Because 11e D1,Lt't Anon.
When Peron, the lion tamer, was at Mos
cow with his menagerie he hired a Cos.
sack to clean out the nage of the wild beasts.
The Cossack dirt not understand a word of
French. Penn tried to show him about
his work by motions with a pail and sponge,
The moujik watched him olosely, and seem-
ed to understand. Next morning, armed
with a broom, a buoket and a sponge, ho
opened the first cage he came to and quietly
stepped in. Ho had seen his master step
into two cages of harmless brutes, but this
one happened to belong to a splendid tiger
that lay on the Hoot fast asleep.
At the noise made by opening the door
the creature raised its head and hurtled its
oyes billion the man, who stood in a corner
dipping his big sponge into the bucket. At
that moment 1 ezon one out and was struck
dumb by the eight. What could he do to
warn the man? A sound night enrage the
great beast. So Penn stood cod still.
The
moujik, sponge in hand coollyapproached
the tiger and made ready
to rub dhtm clown.
The cold water on ito hide pleased the
tiger, for it began to purr, stretched out its
paws, rolled over on its back and offered
every part of its body to the treatment of
the moujik, who went on scrubbing with
might and main. All the while Pozen
stood there with this eyes wide open, as if
nailed to the spot. When he had finished
his job the Cossack left the cage as quietly
es he entered it, But the never did it again.
Arrested as Spies.

are said to have hired a yacht called the
lnseot, at London, and so have sailed under
the English Bag to Heligoland, Cuxhaven,
and the Battle Canal. The yatoh was
searohod, and a quantity of photographic
apparatus and plates were found and eon=
fisoatsd. The two ant:coted persona were

The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of
the Last One hundred Years.
It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar;,
It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk.
This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced
into this country by the proprietors and manufacturers of the Great
South American 'Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative
agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians,
who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the
general public.
This medicine has completely soli,. 3 the problem of the cure of indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is
also of the greatest value in. the cure of all forms of failing health from
whatever cause. It performs this by the great nervine tonicqualitieswhich 10 possesses, and by its great curative powers upon the digestive
organs, the stonlacil, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares
wait this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strength -
oiler of the life forces of the luunou body, and as a great renewer of a

As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been
able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and
harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most
delicate individual. Nine -tenths of all the ailments to which the human
family is heir aro dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired cliges-
tio:I. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a
general state of debility of the brain, spivaI marrow, and nerves is the
result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the
right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments
disappear as the non -es recover. As the nervous system must supply all
the power by which the vital forces of the body are carried on, it is the
first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not con.
tain a sufficient quantity of rho kind of nutriment necessary to repair
the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. '.
For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied.
This South American Nervine has been found by analysis to contain the
essential elements out of which nerve tissue is formed. This accounts
for its universal adaptability to the cure of all forms of nervous de-
rangement.

A SWORN CURE FOR ST. VITAS' DANCE OR CHOREA,

My- daughter, eleven years old, was severely afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance
or Chorea. We gave her three and one-half bottles of South American Net-.
vine and she is completely restored. I believe it will cure every ease of St.
Vitus' Dance, I have kept it in my family for two years, and am sure itis
