AGRICULTURE. How TO GET AFFLKS os "OFF'' YIARR.- To undertake to change the bearing year of an old orchard is something of a task, but not so great a task but what it would pay in the long run. With an old orchard the first thing to be done is to remove the blossoms or small fruit. A liberal dres sing ot manure should be applied to tiie ground to induce a vigorous growth, and it would be all the better if applied the fall before, as the late fall and early spring rains will assist in carrying the fertilising matter down to the roots, if applied late in the apriug it will be of but little use the first year. Different varieties will require Different treatment, or rather varieties that are not very profuse bearers will require more vigorous and thorough treatment lhau those that are. For instance, the Fauiuse or snow apple is a very profuse bearer, and if the blossoms are removed the coming spring, the tree well pruned and manure applied early so as to get the benefit of the spring rains, it will be very certain to bear a fair crop the next year, and very probably a tull crop. That treat ment for a single year will bo likely to ful ly established the habit, If the few blos soms that appear the follow iug year are re moved, it will be likely to gel the bearing habit so thoroughly established that it will be likely to continue without further cart. With varieties that are not so profuse in their habit it is frequently necessary to re sort to more heroic treatment. With such trees, after removing the blossoms or small fruit, some time between the middle of June and the 10th of July, if the tree is growing, vigorously (but not otherwise), a cut should be made entirely around each of tne limbs, cutting entirely through the bark. A second cut should be made about a quarter of an inch from the first, and the intervening section of bark cart, fully re move]. A new bark will be formed in a short time, but the downward flow of the sap will be arrested and the formation of iruit buds so encouraged that trees so trea ted will be very certain to be covered with bloom the following spring. To confirm the habit it may be necessary to repeat the treatment. With old orchards, containing large trees, few farmers will want to spend the time necessary to effect the chauge, but with young trees it is but little trouble to remove the blossoms, and by giving them the treatment described for a few years thoroughly establish the bearing hab it in the edd years, and thus double the value of their returns. If the ring ut bark is properly removed no harm will be done U> the trees, even if repeated in alternate years for a long time. It is a fact that the bark can be removed from the entire body ot a thrifty apple tree duriug the laltci part of Juue or the fore part of July with out any injury to the tree. By taking one half or any part of the top ot a tree and giving it the above described treatment, ilie part so treated will Lave its bearing changed, and the tree made to produce a crop of apples on one or the other part each year. HAVE SHARP KNIVES. —How the "men folks" would fret and sweat, grumble and growl, if they had to chop, mow, or whit tle, or do any cutting, with blunt or round edged implements! Yet nine out of ten of the "women folks" do most of their cut ting up of meats with dull knives—round edged, made barely usable by rubbing them on a stove-top—with an outlay of unnecessary strength and patience, hard slices are haggled into thick and thin forms with dull, over-thick knives; long beating, instead of cutting the hash meat fine; and it makes one ache—as badly as their hands or fingers ache —to see women trying to go through or sLape a piece of cloth with shears or scissors, loose or rickety at the joints; and as for cutting edges on the blades there are none, Tht< remedy.— First, we would say, let every woman, young or old, learn to sharpen implements —if necessary, taking lessons of the men folks or some one else, let every man who is a man, having a house aud de serving one, give personal attention to the household cutting implements. Ten min utes a week or twenty minutes a month, ot an evening or rainy day, will suffice to sharpen the shears and scissors clear to their points, tighten tte joints to make the blades meet through their whole length —not 10 tightly as to strain the fingers, or so loose as to let the cloth turn through uncut. Also to grind off the round of the kitchen cutting and the chopping knives, and put an edge on them; ditto the table knives. BOWME SEEDS.— Joseph Harris, of Rochester, in his new seed catalogue gives Lis }ouDg customers some good directions about sowing garden seeds. He says they should be covered only deep enough to keep moist and that small seeds sucti as lettuce, radish, Drummond phlox, aster, verbena and pansy, need not be covered deeper than a sheet of writing paper is thick, if pressed into the soil and kept moist they need not be covered at all. Pe tunia seeds are easily covered so deep that they will not grow, while peas will giow if covered two or three inches deep. We may add to the above that for out-door planting it is a good rule to cover seeds to a depth of three to five times their diame ter and no more, so that large seeds like corn and peas will be many times deeper than the minute seeds of the portulaca. All must have the three requisites of warmth, moisture aid air. (but not light,) and if buried too deep the air will be ex cluded, Peter Henuerson finds benefit in covering the seeds, after pressing it into the soil, with a tiiin coat 01 finely pulver ized moss, evenly sifted on, and watered with a fine hose. SOIL FOB MAKKXT GARDEN.—A deep, rich sandy loam is the best, having a por ous subsoil of sandy loam A light sandy soil with a sand or gravel subsoil is almost useless for the growing cf late crops, and especially onions, cabbage, cauliflower and Celery, while a stiff clay ioam with clay or hard-pan subsoil could hardly be made to pay for growing early salads, melons, cu cumbers, radishes, tomatoes, etc.. but this kind of soil, if ui derdrained and well worked, will be the very best for late veg etables. Land that is worn out by crop ping on the start is useless. A GOOD crop ol rtd clover, when cut for hay, removes a large quantity of nitrogen from the land, but it nevertheless leaves the surface soil actually richer in nitrogen than it was before, from the residue of roots and stubble. From whence is this large quantity of nitiogen obtained? It must be procured either from the sub-soil or the atmospnere. Dr. J. B. Lawes thinks the former seems the most probable, as ex tended experiments have hitherto failed to prove that leguminous plants, like clover have Bny special power of obtaining nitro gen from the air. As the influence of male animals is more strongly impressed on the offspring than that of the female, it is important that due care be exercised in the selection of males for improvement. One with doubt ful lineage should be avoided. A* application of a bushel and a half of plaster to the acre on clover early will infuse new life into it. If wood ashes are added it will be still bet ter. Ashes and plaster aie special fertil iy rs for clover. DOMESTIC. llow TO CLEAN Kin Gi.oVEs.--Kid gloves and slippers, when soiled, may be renovated by the tollowing process: Take a little sweet milk and a piece of white or brown goap. Fold a clean towel three or four times, spread it over your dress, and spread the glove smoothly upon the soap, and rub the glove downward toward the Augers, holding the wrist of it by the left hand. Continue this process until the glove, if white, looks of a dingy yellow, but if colored, looks dark and en tirely spoiled. Now let it dry, and then put it ou your hand, aud it will soon be soft, smooth, glossy, aud clean. Take c ire, however, to omit no part of the glove in rubbing it. and see that all the soiled parts are thoroughly cleaned. This process applies only to white colored kid gloves. For black gloves that are soiled, turned white and otherwise injured take a spooaful of salad oil, drop a few drops of ink into it, and rub It all over the gloves with the lip ot a feather; then let them dry in the sun. White kid boots aud slippers can also tie cleaned by the first process to look "as good as new," and black kid boots aad slippers can be restored to their pristine gloss by the latter method. White kid gloves can be died yellow or brown by steeping saffron leaves iu boiling wafer for eight hours, and then wetting the gloves with a spouge dipped into the decoction. The color eau be graduated by the strength ot the dye. A handful of saffron leaves steeped in a pint of water will color half doaen pairs of gloves. I'ASTE THAT WILL KEEP A *EAK. — Dia solve a tablcspoou of alum iu a quart of warm water, and when co:d stir iu as much fiour as will make it as thick as cream—mixing the flour iu a separate cup sc that it will not be in lumps. Add as much powdered rosin as will lie ou a dime and throw in a dozen cloves to give it a pleasant odor. Put a teacup of boiling water into a tin dish, and pour in the Qour mixture. Boil for fifteen minutes; if cooked in another pan previous to boiling, it will be less likely to burn. Let it dry away, ami when needed, dissolve a piece in a little boiliug water. SPICED BEEF. — lake the bones out of a six-pound salt flank of beef and slit the meat into a long thin piece; sprinkle with a pinch of each of the following spices, mixed together. Mace, nutmeg, ginger; pepper, allspice and a handful of chopped parsley; roll it up tightly aud place in a cloth closely tied, put into a stewpan, and one small onion, one carrot, a piece of celery aud a small bunch of swe>t herbs. Cover with cold water, let boil and sim mer geutly five Lours; when cooked tie the cloth up tighter and press between two boards; let it get cold, This can either be served plain or glazed. CLEANING BRASS.—' The Government recipe for cleauing brass, used in the arse nals, is said to be as follows: Make a mixture of one part common nitric acid, and one-half part sulphuric acid in a stone jar, then place ready a pail of fresh water aud a box of sawdust. Dip the articles to be cleaned in the acid, then remove them into the water, after which rub them with sawdust. This immediately changes them to a brilliant color. If the brass is greasy it must first be dipped in a stroDg solution of potash and soda in warm wa ter; this cuts the grease so that the acid has the power to act. "SAI:* SYSTEM' FOK HI,OWKK C'cr TIKCS. —Common saucers or plates are used to hold the sand in which the cuttings are placed. Make the sand one or two inches deep, and put the cuttings close enough to touch each other; water the sand until it becomes in the condition of mud, and place in the greenhouse or on the parlor window sill lully exposed to the sun. To make this system a success, the sand must be kept wet ss mud until the cuttings have taken root, or they will wilt and be a failure. FURNITURE COVKKS.—A couch in the living room nmy be kept from fading by taking a piece of Turkish toweling the required length—that is a little longer than the couch, so that it will fall over the ends, and not slide down and wrinkle; put scalleps of tlannel on the edge, A border or centre piece, or even a vine worked in some bright color across the ends, is a pretty addition. A pretty bedroom set, splash curtains for behind the washstaud, covers for table and dressing table mats would be very attractive made ia this way. MANTLLLAMBKKYUIN —'IEANSFIK W'OKK. The emtroidery on Cretan or Turkish towels, so fashionable for tidies, may be transferred to marooo, plush or sage green velvet, and embroidered down with briar stitch in coloicd filoselle. A mantle lambrequin, done in this way, may have irregular shelves of eLonizcd or other fancy wood tacked by the same plush, set above it, making a cabinet to contain choice bits of Satsuma ware, Dres den china, or miniatures. WASHING CREWEL WORE. — Make a lath er of the best primrose soap, or cuid soap, and rub the article to be washed in It. Do not put any soap on the work. Rinse in clear water but do not wring -only fqueeze. Shake and stretch till dry. .another mode is to tie a handful of bran in a mus lin bag, and make a lather with warm water. Wash the crewel in this without using soap. A MEAT STEW. —A nice stew can be made by taking pieces oi mutton or veal, boijiDg till tender, addmg a few potatoes cut Email, and thickening a little with Hour; first stiiTing tlie flour smooth as for gravy. Season to taste with pepper and salt. Have ready a pan of hot bis cuits, open them and spread in a deep dish, and pour the stew over them. This is very nice 'and more wholesome 'ban dough boiled with meat. CIKE FOR THE EARACHK. — Take a small piece of cotton batting or cotton wool, make a depression in the centre with the finger and fill it up with as much ground pepper as will rest.on a five cent piece; gather it into a ball and tie it up, dip ttie ball in sweet oil and insert it in the ear, covering the latter witii cotton wool, se cured by a bandage or cap. POTATCE SC.WP.— BoiI and mash pota toes. To three pints of Biashed potatoes add three quarts of rich beef stock, ready boiling. Add pepper and salt to taste, and seive witli fried bread. Or, if liked, take one onion, one head of celerj', two spoonfuls of rice, and boil in the stock till tender, then add the mashed potatoes and serve hot, with crackers or bread. KNITTED CUFF (eaßy work) —Cast on sixty stitches, twenty on each of three needles; knit plain for seventy rounds, cast off; make a hem at the top one incn in depth; a fold of velvet, embroidered in gold beads, is sewed round the other end, and is edged with pleated lace. Andalu sian wool is preferred for this simple cuff. WHEN yon bury an old animosity, uever mind putting up a tombstone. HUMOROUS. A FEW days after the funeral, a New York undertaker met a wealthy man whose daughter he had buried. "I was sorry and surprised on hearing of your embarrassment, aud 1 hope the money was enough to relieve you,'' said the old geu tleman. •'Money! embarrassed! relieve me," gaspjd the undertaker. "I haven't asked yo i for any money, and dulu't intend to for some time." The gentleman, nettled, tartlv replied : "You dunned me for the eipeuses of my (laughter's funeral within three days, and 1 paid the bill." "1 dunned you ! 1 never asked you for a cent," exclaimed the undertaker. "Was it a young man?" he continued. "Yes," said the old gentleman, "your soil; and he said you wauted the money immediately." "A few days after the funeral," said the undertaker, "a well dressed young man came to my store, representing him self HB the betrothed lover of your daugh ter, whom he was to have married iu a lew days. He wished as a tokeu of his affection for her, to pay her Juneral ex penses. I refused at first, telling him that her family would uot permit it. But he urged it so strenuously that 1 filially cou seuted, and made out the bill, lie took It, and said he would go down to his father's offloe and make out. the chock. 1 have uot heard or seen auythiug of him since." Aud now the question is, who will have to pay for the little job which that very smart young man put up on these worthy people—the father or the undertaker? Tony Prtator In Troublo. Tony Pastor, of New York, who Is now with his inimitable Tandy combination, making a lour of the principal cities of the Union, is recognized as the leadiag char acter vocalist ami variety performer of the Uuited States. He owns and runs a flrst class theatre on Broadway, New York City, and has gathered about him the best troup of variety artists that could he ob tained. The company has just completed a brilliant engagement at the Walnut Street Theatre, Philadelphia, and after the present tour they will reappear in Tony Pas or's own Theatre in New York City. Mr. Pastor is the onginator of hie peculiar school of character singing, and has made himself immensely popular, having realiz ed by his talent an immense fortune. The writer of this article met Mr. Pas tor recently at the Binghaui House, in Philadelphia, and found him as genial iu private as he is amusing before the public. Dining our conversation I inquired as to his physical health, and he replied that, notwithstanding the strain upon him in the discharge of his professional duties, it was excellent. Hehad occasionally severe pains, either the result ot rheumatic attacks or colds, but any complaints of that char acter never troubled him long, as he had found out a remedy for all such annoying affections. 1 asked him what the remedy was, and he replied, "St. Jacobs Oil." I then learned from .Mr. Pastor that he con sidered the Great German Remedy an ex cellent preparation for the cure or relief of rheumatism, ami tha f it was about the only thing used among professional people for that distressing complaint. He took bottles of it with him whenever he went traveling, and would not be without it, anil knew that it was very popular with a number of members of bis own company. A conversation held subsequently with vaiious members of the organization re vealed the fact tiiat St. Jacobs Oil had bean performing most invaluable service for them in the way of curiug them of rheumatism. Nearly every artist in the troupe used it, and was enthusiastic in its praise, and the writer was really forced to the conclusian that Tony Pastor was cer tainly in luck in having so valuable aa article kuown and employed by his in imitably go<Kl company of performers, tor it enabled every ouo to be always in his place, thus insuring comfort to the mana gement and genuine satisfaction to the public. Tony Pastor would certainly be in trouble without St. Jacobs Oil. At least, other managers whose artists have been temporarily misapplied, have noticed the difference between St. Jacobs Oil in stock and St. Jacobs Oil out of stock— among the members ol their companies— JY.

"Does your lordship mean," asked Lord Bradford, a live or dead sheep?" "Is it not the same thing?" said the chancellor. "No, my lord," said Lord Bradford, "there is much difference. A live sheep may have four legs; a dead sheep has only two. The two fore legs are should ers, but there &re only two legs of mut ton." "All through advertising" remarked ex Mayor Gregoiy,to us as he went Lome ward with a bottle of St, Jacobs Oil, "that I bought this: Vour paper contains so many wonderful cures—of course they are acts —and so 1 thought I'd try a bottle for the rheumatism."— Madison ( Wis ) Daily Democrat.
