RESONATING l" OBCHAIM.
2* , ,
Thefe are nitiltHades of old orchard*
throughout the country, too good to cut down,
yet bearing fruit only fit for rnakiug into ci
der, or feeding to swine. Their owners fre
quently and earnestly ask : What shall we do
with them?
First: if the fruit is poor, change it by en
grafting. It is often the case that pruning
shoultf jgo along #ith grafting. Ibe tops of
the trees which,have becooie thick and matted
together, should be thinned out. But in pru
ning, let tio one mount the trees rough .shud,
and with axe and saw hack away at the lower
limbs and those in the interior. Instead of
this, thin out the old, decayed limbs, cut ow
a few ol the upper limbs as well as the lower,
and try to preserve the symmetry of the tree.
In grafting, begin at the top and renew about
one-third of the tree each year. ...
The ground will need renovating, also, by
plowing and fitanUrrhg. -This l orftwhduld be
done carefully, without barking the trees or
breaking their roots, we think it best ordin
arilv to merely scarify the surface with a bar
row, and to give it a good top-dressing of
barnyard manure, composted with muck,
limej arid wood ashes. When the trunks and
limbs have become mossy, and so rough a>
to harbor insects cr their eggs, scrape them,
and then wash them with weak lye or strong
soap Buds. A common whitewash brash villi
answer for applying this mixture.— American
Agriculturist.
THE FARMER'S MOM.E.
Many farmers labor zealously and unceas
ingly to have their farms carefully arranged,
with woodland and clearedfield, occupying the
right space: their fences and barns allin good
repair their meadows free from weeds and
stone* in short, everything in praiseworthy
order, till one comes to the centre round
which ail these minor interests revolve, and
here, where should cluster all the attractions
that render home loved and lovely, one finds
more to repel than attract. A small, dilapi
dated house, a relic of the olden time, with
no airy, cheerful rooms to light up the family
temper; no labor saving appliances to cheer
and lessen the ever-recurring daily toil; no
pleasant doorway with the refining breath ot
perfumed flowers to elevate and purify the af
fections; but all seem cheerless aud desolate,
sordid and selfish. Oh, for some magic pow
er to make the owners of such homes feel
how fatal to their true interests is such a
state of affairs ! If the aim is but firmly fix
ed on a better condition of things, the change
can scon be brought about by united effort,
and the added expense can be hardly felt.
The wife and children will work with double
energy, for their hearts will be in it, if they
know the old house is to be replaced by a
better one, and the tumble down wall or fence
removed to give place to a neat painted one
of pickets or boards. Each will be ready to
dispense with the promised new garments, pr
other anticipated indulgence to add to the
generrff ftind: and each will gladly lend a
helping hand to remove unsightly rubbish,
pick up loose stones, destroy noxious weeds,
and to set out shade trees and shrubbery, to
make and trim the grassy lawn, aud cultivate
flowerbeds: and as the work progresses,
bright and happy smiles will take the place of
sour and discontented looks, andtheimprove
ment of the serenity and cheerfulness of the
family circle will keep peace with the exteri
or progress, so true it is that the inner life
will, to a greater or less extent, like a mirror,
reflect the impress of all its surroundings.
In view of all tfris, parents should spare no
efforts, nor consider any sacrifice too great to
make, to render their homes pleasant anil
attractive, and full of elevating and refining
influences, if they would hare their children
grow up susceptible to ail good and noble
emotions —the blessing and crown of their
declining years.— Rural American.
A LITTLE MSB-
While man has often reached the limits of
how little can be done on much land, it has
scarcely beeu shown in a single instance, how
much aiay be done on a little land, hrom
what I raised the past season on one tenth of
an acre, I should have realized, at New York
prices, nearly four hundred, dollars. 1 here
are few persons, not residents of some city or
large village, who do not have more land than
this; and how mauy there are who, from ten
times the amount of land, realize little or
nothing! Probably the majority of those who
own a yard or garden covering and acre, do
not produce one-twentieth of the amount that
might and ought to be grown upcn it. They not
only deprive themselves of the luxuries that
should grace their tables the year round, reduc
ing the costs of living, in a large family, mate
rially, but they suffer agreaterloss by the ab
lence of pleasant surroundings, the vigorous
health elasticity of spirit, and refinement of feel
ing growing out of communion wiih nature to be
found in pleasant horticultural pursuits. A
man with one-sixteenth of an acre, can give
to the world a new variety of potato or straw
berry plant, a new dahlia or verbena, and
would he not be far happier in producing the
useful, or the beautiful, than in smoking
his cigar, and dreaming away his leisure hours ?
If there is unoccupied space in his back yard
for a useful shrub or tree, or vine, why uot
set one out, and thus add his mite to the sum
of total happiness? Man was "made to glorify
God" as much through dressing his vineyard,
by the thovugh cultivation of the soil, as by
laboring in his spiritual vineyard, and that
he fails to meet the demands against hira in
this respect, is an unfaithful steward. If he
has but a single acre, will he be pardoned
for using it as one of old did his talent?
It is the judicious and thorough cultivation
of a small area of land, that yields the larg
est returns, just as sure and frequent returns
on small investments make men wealthy of
tener than when large capital is used. Prob
ably the greatest curse of American farmers
is their greed for broad acres, which go to
swell taxation, produce heavy crops of weeds,
bmks and briers. Give us small, but well
tilled farms, and the country can support a
greater population to the square mile, then
Rome il> her palmy days, Chinaor Germany,
all of which countries have understood the
practical application of the science of agri
culture better than we, as a nation do.
SALT FOR THE THROAT-
In these days, when diseases of the throat
are so universally prevalent, and so many
cases prove fatal, we feel it a duty to say a
word in behalf of a simple and what has been
with us a most effective preventive, if not a
positive cure of sore throats. For many
years past, indeed we may say during the
whole of a life of over forty years, we have
been subi'oct to a sore throat; and more par
*;"-u-'v to<* dry, hacking cough, which was
mot only distressing to ourselves, but to our
friends and those with whom we were
brought into business contact. Last fall we
were induced to try what virtue was in com
mon salt. We commenced by using it three
times a day—morning, noon and night. We
diseolvcd a large table spoonful of pure salt
in about half a small tumbler full of cold
water. With this wo gargle the throat most
thoroughly, just before meal time. The re
sult has been that during the entire winter
we were not only free from the usual coughs
and colds to which as far as our memory ex
tends, we have always been subject, but the
dry, hacking cough has entirely disappeared
We attribute these satisfactory results solely
to the use of the salt gargle, and do most
cordially recommend a trial of it to those of
our readers who are subject to disease of the
throat. Many persons who have never tried
the salt gargle have the impression that it is
unpleasaanl. Such is not the case. On the
contrary, it is plessant, and, after a few days
use, no person who loves a nice, clean mouth
and a first rate sharpener of the appetite,
will abandon it. — farmer and Gardener.

NEW YORK TRIBUNE.
1866-
Our most Momentous, arduous struggle having
resulted in the triumph of American Nationality,
the utter discomfiture and overthrow of Secession
and Slavery, TAX Tribchs, profoundly rejoicing
•in this result, will labor to conserve the legitimate
fruits of this grand, benignant viotory by render
ing Liberty and Opportunity the common heri
tage of the whole American People BOW and ever
more.
Discountenancing all unmanly exultation owr
or needless infliction of pain or privation on the
upholders of the lost cause, it will insist on the
earliest possible restoration of tbe Southern States
to their former power and influence in our Union
on the basis of All Rights for All their People.
It will labor in hope to prove that the substitu
tion of Free for Slave Labor must inevitably aud
universally conduce to the increase of Industry,
Thrift, Prosperity and Wealth, so that the South,
within the next ten years, must look back amazed
on her long persistence in i practice so baleful as
the chatteiiziug of Man.
It will labor for the diffusion of Common School
Education, Manufactures, the Useful Arts, Ac.,
Ac., throughout every portion of our country, but
especially throughout the sections hitherto devoid
of them, believing that every goou end will there
by be subserved and the interest of every useful
and worthy class promoted.
It will urge tbe Protection of Home Industry
by discriminating duties on Foreign Products im
ported, with a view to drawing hither the most
capable and skillful artificers and aitisans of Eu
rope, and the naturalizing on our soil of many
branches of production hitherto all hut confinod
to the-Old World, while it would strengthen and
extend those which have already a foothold
among us.
It will give careful attention to progress and
improvement' in Agriculture, doing its best at
once to bring markets to the doors of our farmers
and teach them how to make the most of tbe op
portunities thus afforded them.
It Will devote eonstant attention to Markets, es
pecially for Agricultural Products, with intent to
save both producer and consumer from being vie
timi/.ed by the speculator and forestaller.
And, giving fair scope to Current Literature, to
the proceedings of Congress, and to the general
News of the Day, it hopes to retain its old patrons
and attract many new to bear them company.
We rarely employ traveling agents, as so many
impostors are habitually prowling in the assumed
capacity of solicitors for journals. We prefer that
our subscribers shall pay their money to persons
they know and of whose integrity they are assur
ed. Any friend who believes he will <lo good by
increasing the circulation of the Tribune is author
ized to solicit and receive subscriptions. .Speci
men coyies will be promptly sent without charge
to those requiring them, and we trust many friends
will be moved to ask tbeir neighbors and acquain
tances to join in making up their clubs.
