Pruning Orchards.
t this season one may see farmers
us " cleaning up" their orchards. We
se this term cleaning up" as express-
i1re f the general idea, under which or -
ha ds are slashed and hacked with axe
nd saw in a merciless manner. This is
sip osed to be of service to the trees,
rdl is called by some pruning. ' Now,
uing. in its.proper sense, is as definite
an peration performed for as definite a
purpose as a surgical operation upon an
a i lel or a human being. There are
d st nctly different reasons why trees
sho lcl be pruned, and distinctly differ -
e t icthods of and seasons for pruning.
1h n trees are hacked, and branehea
and limbs removed without judgment
and knowledge of the consequences,
nt ing but injury can result, and'it is
a juestion worth considering if the an-
nual slashing of the orchards is not one
of ti e chief causes of the decay so serious-
ly c mplained of. The complaint is that
we aye no fruit, that the orchards do
not iear, that their vigor early fails, and
that the trees soon become diseased, and
ling r along through a living death. If
we t ied to discover a more successful
mem er of producing precisely these re-'
sults than the common fashion of lopp-
ing to e branches, thinning out the wood,
and cutting off the sprouts in the early
Spri g, we should fail to do it. The
effec of this cutting or pruning, if it
may be so called, is to encourage the
grow h of wood and foliage at the expen-
se of he fruit ; to weaken the tree by
exhai sting its natural vigor in efforts to
procit ce more wood, and thus to shorten
its h , while we waste its short life in
usele s and exhaustive effort.
Pit nning is the naost important opera-
tion onneeted with the care of an orch-
ard, ^red the manners and times of do-
ing have. the most widely different

months before, and were overtaken by
greatsnow storms.
Wins Monday (min g come and the
woodarner didnotreturn,,the wife and
mother of the absent men grew - very
solicitous for the safety of their relatives.
They shu1d have been at home -no
matter Mow bad the roads or heavy their
loads. -.at 6 or 7 o'clock' Monday evening,
had nothing happened. Out the wild
snow storin was still sireeping over the
bay, and here was evert:reason to tear
that the worst had befallen.
About awn the next morning Mrs.,
Partridge and her daughter were arous-
ed by tibehowling of doge, who pawed
the thres old and poureed upon the door
in a 111i z t vehement manner. Mrs.
. Partridge at first rejoiced, believing that
her In sb nd and sons had arrived.
When jtho door was ipened the dogs
would o enter, howe er, but continued
to whine nd paw the ground impatient-
ly. The •ld woman t] en. went to the
woody11'rd to cahl her sband and boys;
3
but th •nly answer given was. the
piteousw] ining ond yelping of the dogs.
After a hile many of the neighbors
gathered round the cabin, and most of
them kne too well the harrowing story
that theo .or brutes could tell had they
the fac Ity of speech. I The dogs were
implac bl .; neithee fate' nor caresses
could in t them. One old' fisherman
said he would test the animals by mov-
ing in he direction ofi the wood. He
had no o ner called them and started in
that di ection than they bounded past
him an led the way, looking back every
fewpac s to make sure that he was fol-
lowing. Rime young fishermen then volun-
teered to follow the dogs, and were led
to the Part of the wood where the men
lay buried in the snow.
Prodigious banks of snow piled on the
regular road made the vii•ay to the fatal
spot citcniteus and difficult. On the
side of eneienountain of 4rifted snow four
dogs were: found yelpieg dismally and
digging tht snow with their paws. The
volunteers went to work and after about
two hours' search with 8110w shovels re-
covered the bodies of allthe men, but too
late to resuscitate them.,

What
all I do for a Living?
In the choicellof a, vocation there are
five great nji8takes to be avoided. The
first is co*ding into What ere called
"the prolfe sions," or mercantile life, or
some other mployment where there is
but little m nual labor, on the supposi-
tion thatith s must promilse to the young
a compare vely easy life. There are
none who ork harder than some who
aresuppose notte work at all. An aching
brain may e more tryin than a weary
arm.
The second mistake into which young
men are liable to fall -and this is worse
than the first -is that .Of trying for a
place in some of those brenches of busi-
ness where there is the possibility of
achieving a, great fortune at a stroke,
with the strong probabilit of not making
a cent. This is simply running for luck,
with the prospect of breaking your neck
in the race. The few, wins succeed every
one hears of; the multitude, who fail,
pass out Of s ght and are forgotten.
The third mistake is that of rushing
from the country to the la -p citiese With-
out any reasonable prosect of Itincling
remunerative occupation. If all the
groans ahd sighs which ceme from the
stores and offices where Or clerks, and
salesmen, and • book-keepers congregate,
could be heard through our country
towns an v lieges, there would not be
the same e g rness to join the crowd who
haunt the ci y streets. Ik there be a fair
chance of your attaining Ia comfortable
living in a y honest way say near home,
and build u a sure fou dation, even
though t e structure His° somewhat
slowly.
The fou t mistake to be noticed is
the preval n notion that to work with
the hands ea never be aS honorable as
it is to wo k with the braille. If indeed
a man is 11 ting but a tool or a part of
a machi e, he cannot expect to
take an lel rated place in 'society.
But suppote the hand and the head to
work toget le -as they always will, to
some extent, ust as soon as you rise out
of the regi n of mere servlile toil -how
does the met er stand then ? Better and
more honoijabl e to be a successful and
intelltgent fa mer or mechanic than to be
a feeble a vo ate at the bar, or an lin.;
pecunious, Ih If -starved member of any
other learn d profession? ;
And las ly it is very gad when one
finds that he I as chosen a line of life to
which he is n it adapted. it works bad-
ly, whether t e peg is too llarge or too
small for the • ole.
