CULTIVATING ORCHARDS.
Apple orchards left to themselves beat on
ly us alternate years, with snch ani fortuity,
that •'bearing year*"' hare come to be regard
ed as the order of nature, rather than a hu
man device. The trees, in average soil, do
not have aliment enough to give full crop
every year. Cultivation and manuring will
change all this, and give us remunerative
crops every season. Possibly manuring might
do this even if the orchard were left in grass.
But the danger is. it the orchard is left q
- it will not get the manure.
The common objection offered to plowing
is the damage done to the roots of the tree.-.
We have no doubt that an orchard might be
plowed so deep and so near the trunk of the
trees as to damage h past hope of recovery.
But discretion is to be used, arid the plow is
to lie kept so near the surface under the
trees, as not to break off the large roots. It
has also been ascertained that grain crops are
not good for orchards. We have known or
chards to be made barren for several years in
o >iise<juence of a crop of rye. Grain crq --
unless buckwheat be an exception, take from
the soil what the tree needs, and shade the
land too much. Boot crops are the most de
suable, because they require a good deal of
manure and thorough tillage to make them
profitable. The frequent stirring of the soil,
and the fertilizers, are the wants of the apple
tree, and the root crop enables the farmer to
give these to his orchard, and at the same
lime ha is remunerated for his labor.
Potatoes, carrots, beets, turnips, are ail
good crops for the orchard, if you put on ma
nure enough to make them pay. A surplus
must be left in the soil to make the apple
trop But wiii an orchard thus fed bear cve
t rear? We hare no donbt of it. The apple
crop may be made as sure as the root crops.
We once plowed up beneath an old apple
tree that had an inveterate habit of bearing
• •uly every other year, and planted with po
tatoes. manuring liberally. He had a full
crop of apples the second year, and shall al
ways think the manure and the cultivation
made the change. Horticulturists who matte
a specialty of apples, and manure every year,
succeed in getting crops every season, with
very rare exceptions David l.ymau. Esq.. o!
Middlefield, Conn., stated, at a recent meet
ing of the State Board <■•' \gricuiture, that he
cultivated his orchard.-, and got crops every
year. They were not always full crops, but
were enough to pay for the trouble. Judg
ing from the appearance of his orchards
which we visited a few year 3 since in the ap
ple season, we think that a very modest state
ment. We have rarely seen so fine a show
of apples, even at the county fairs, as could
have been gathered from his trees. The se
cret of his success is cultivation and manure,
and a reasonable watch against the encroach
ments of insects. The plowing late in the
fall as well as in the spring, he thinks a great
safeguard against their depredations. Mul
titudes of the chrysalides are unearthed and
destroyed. If this was attended to, and the
windfalls picked up and fed to the pig-, we
think there would be little damage from the
attacks of insects. The apple is so fine a
fruit, and so easily kept, it* is so much both
food and luxury, that no pains should be
spared to keep our orchards in the best con
dition. We are tired of seeing apples quoted
at $7 a barrel, but even at that price they are
much cheaper than piils.— American Aori

GARDENING FOR WOMEN.
there is nothing better for wives and
daughters- physically, than to have the care
•if a garden—a flower plot, if nothing more.
What is pleasanter than to spend a portion of
every passing day in working among plants
and watching the growth of shrubs, and trees,
and plants, and to observe the opening of
flowers, from week to week, as the season
advances'' Then, how much it adds to the
enjoyment, to know that your own handsbave
planted and tilled them. This is a pleasure
that requires no great riches nor profound
knowledge. The humble cottage of the labor
ing poor, not less than their grounds, may be
adorned with pot plants, which in due time
will become redolent of rich perfume, not
less than radiant with beauty; thus minister
ing to the love of the beautiful in nature.
The wife and daughter who loves home,
and would seek ever to make it the best place
for husband and brother, is willing to forego
some gossiping morning calls, for the sake of
having leisure for the cultivation of plants,
and shrubs, and flowers. The good house
wife is early among her plants and flowers,
as is the husband at bis place of business.
They are both utilitarians, the one it xay be
if; the abstract, and the other in the concrete,
each as essential to the enjoyment of the oth
er, as are the real and ideal in human life.
The lowest utilitarianism would labor only
for the meat that perisheth. Those of higher
and nobler views, would labor with no less
assiduity for tbe substantial things which elc
vale and refine the mind and exalt the soul.
The advantages which woman personally
derives from stirring the soil, and snufling
the morning air, are freshness and beauty of
cheek, and brightness of eye, eheerfulncss of
temper, vigor of mind, and purity of heart.
Consequently she is more cheerful and lovely
as a daughter, more dignified aud womanly
as a sister, and more attractive and confiding
as a wife.
Hence the fruits and products of garden
culture, as they relate to woman, when view
ed objectively, are but small, relatively, as
compared with the benefits secured in regard
to herself, as the center of social refinement
aud enjoyment, amid such a world as ours.
A husband who revolves round such a center,
cannot but be a good neighbor, a useful citi
zen, a kind ialber, a loving'and confidingcom
panion. Do not, then, mothers and sisters,
the latter wives in prospect, neglect the gar
den.—Farm and Fireside.
TAKE CASE to cultivate no more land than
you can do well by. without working yourself
to death, or overworking either teams or men.
This will secure thoroughness, and larger
profits if not larger crops. Make provisions
for work to fill up a'l tbe "spare time," so
that you will uot have any. That is—for
rainy days, and when the ground is wet and
cannot be worked- A few roods of carrot® or
beets, for stock, are excellent for this, be
cause they must be hand-weeded and thinned
out on damp and rainy days. Give men and
teams always good long "noon spells," but '
exact promptness to begin work, and willing,
ness to stick to it and do it well.
To "Gentlemen Farmers" let us ay—
know how to handle every tool, and if yon do
not now, practice "on the sly" until you can i
show any awkward man bow he should do
his work. You gain much by beating a work
man at bis own trade, and it is very easy to
do it. if von hare a modicum of knack and
common sense. You may almost always cal
culate with certainty, on mind against muscle,
with a quill or a crow Oar. Learn to judge
accurately and jnstly of a good day's or hour s
work, not by what you can do yourself, but
by what an active, thorough roan can do,
when v i are with him. Bear down as hard
as you please on tee shirks; they will wince,
| but stand it, tad perhaps do better. If you
I are unjust to a faithful man, he will be very
f apt to "Hare up" and quit, as be should, if he
I <-n not serve you without lowering his own
-elf-respect. Elevate your men. by your just
i dealing- with, interest in them, and care for
their improvement. Furnish them reading
for Sundays and evenings. Give them such
: papers as this, and such books as the Agri
; cultural and Horticultural Annuals, Herbert's
I Hints to Horse-keepers, Johnson on Peat, the
! Hop, Flax. Onion or Tobacco culture hand
i bo >'*. etc, etc., point out particular views as
' expressed in other books, which yon use as
guides to practice. The practice will surely
i pay. lmericun Agriculturist.
