farm, THINNING OUT FRUIT. Il may be considered somewhat early to make suggestions on the subject of thinning out fruit, but it car. never be too early to give good advice, and we think that as pear and peach trees are beginning to show their pro duct, the thinning out process may be begun at almost any time. •It is true tbc operation can be performed conveniently only upon such trees as are not over large. But it should be especially attended to in young trees, which frequently over-bear, to the great injury of the health of the trees, as well as' the quality of the fruit. To "obtain the finest specimens of pears, they should not be allowed to grow iu clusters or in contact with each other, and all that exhib ited the least imperfection should be remov ed. What is lost in number will be doubly ntude np in size and flavor, l'his should be remembered. Many persons regard the thin ning out of peaches, pears, and apples as so much loss but they are not judges of fvuit, and have no knowledge of its proper culture. They want as large a crop as possible, letting the quality take care of itself, no matter ho-v much the tree is damaged and what effect it may have on the following year's crop. • > some of our own pear trees last year we removed three-fourths of the entire crop, and afterwards found the tree to contain more ttiau was advisable. It goes hard with some people to diminish the quantity of fruit upon their trees. Some times they plead want of time; but this is not admissible, for if they have not time to attend to the proper cultivation of fruit they should abandon it altogether, lhe real cause is lheir greediness. You can t make them be lieve that they ore the gainers by destroying n portion of the crop, saying that nature is the best judge as to the quantity of the fruit. Such persous have no practical knowledge of fruit-raising, and the sooner they give it up the better it will be for them, their pockets and reputation.— Gennantoxen Telegraph. SODS AND WEEDS. It should be a general practice with fann ers to gather up all the sods, weeds, and even the year's growth of briers, bnshes, A c., and stack them in large compact heaps, there to remain for from one to two years, or until they become properly decomposed, and resol ved into one mass. It would take but little time to gather these, while in doing so the fields would be cleared of trash, which, if left to remain, obstruct the growth of plants and encourage the increase of those drawbacks to growing crops. The "manure'' which ought to be produced on a farm of an hundred acres by this process, would hardly be believed un til properly put in operation. But we can say in advance that there ought to be real j/.ed. at the lowest calculation, one cart load per acre. This substance is extremely valu able for gardens, and especially for corn, as well as for soils of a heavy and tenacious character. We have long been convinced that this part of a farmer's business has not nearly been so generally attended to as it ought to be. In the pursuit of agriculture there are as negligent and indifferent farmers as other business men. Some, indeed, appear to have no de sire to succeed, or to make more than a mere from hand-to-mouth living: they never learn anything from the experience and example of their more energetic and thriving neigh bors. They know enough, and hence are con tent to humdrum their lives away, leaving their children to pattern after them, unless they possess superior innate faculties of their own, and copy, in spite of the example of their parents, after those who have kept pace with the spirit of the age. In passing through agricultural districts the observant person sees many different phases of farming. He constantly notices where the eye and hand of the intelligent, attentive and successful farmer belong. He requires no guide to point out to him where the soil as well as the mind has been improved. He sees no failure of crops there unless through the visitation of agencies over which man has no control. Even severe drought has little effect upon his crops. Judicious manuring and thorough tillage and draining alone work these agricultural wonders. Mho, then, who pusseooea the t.uc opiiit of tbo Former, will not go and do likewise? — Germ ant own Tele graph. GOOD EFFECTS OF LIME. li any one has any doubts as to the good effects oflime on any soil, let him try for ex periment half an acre, lime it well, and we think that in four or five years he will extend the application: once well done and it will last an age. Who ever saw the spot where the ruins of a house once was but has seen the rich, stroug grass at all seasons, wet or dry? Now what produces this? The fertili ty that gathers around the residence of them. It must be the lime that falls into the soil from the bricks and plastering. Lime acts more positively upon some soils than others, but did you ever know of limestone land that was not fertile? that did not give a larger yield of grass? It seems to act as manure or food for plants—for all who are conversant with chemical analysis know there is a small portion of lime or alkaline matter tound in nil plants, jjrapis or trepo. Lime supplies this —hence the vigorous growth wherever found—it is much more advantageous to dou ble the produce of one acre than to work two acres for the same returns. Let us try the article: if we see no marked effects the first year and but little the second, doubt not; for it requires time to get this material under way. But when it does act its operations are steady and durable, and annually returns the cost of application. Do not fear a little cost, for it is an old and trite saying, "nothing risk, nothing have." Most farms are lacking in lime, and till that is given crops must be small. — Germanloicn Telegraph. rjpRII'MPH IN DENTISTRY. • TEETH EXTRACTED WITHOUT PAIN, By the use of Nitrous Oxide Gas, and is attended with no danger whatever.

A COMPANY of soldiers were marching through a bog in Ireland, when the sergeant ordered them -o form 'two deep." One fel low, an Irishman, who got up to his thighs in a bog hole, exclaimed, 'Bedad, I'm in too deep already. A NOBLEMAN asked a clergymau once at his table, 'why the goose, if there was one, was always placed next to the parson?' "Really, said he, 'I can give no reason for it.- but your question is so odd that I sball never see a goose in the future, without think ing of your lordship.' "Pray, excuse a bit of sarcasm,' saidSuiith to Jones, "but you are an infamous liar and scoundrel." "Pray, pardon a touch of irony, replied Jones, as he knocked him down with the poker. A WITTY editor who has just failed, says he did it with all the honors of war, and retired from the field with colors Hying—Sheriffs Hag Muttering from two windows and the door, aud a white Mag hung out from his per son in token of surrender. •■ls it possible, Miss, that you don't know the names of soms of your best friends?" in quired a gentleman of a lady. "Certainly," she replied, "1 don't know what my own may be a year hence.' A COIAIKKI. of volunteers repeatedly insist ed as a condition of his offer of service, "Mind, we are not to go out of the country, Mr. Pitt! we are not to go out of the coun try-" j "Except, 1 suppose," said the minister, coldly, "in the case of actual invasion. " WIOOINS was one day with a friend, when he observed a poor dog that had been killed, lying in the gutter. Wiggins paused, gazed at the dead animal, and at last said: "Here is another shipwreck." "Shipwreck, where?" "Why here's a bark that s lost forever. His companion growled and passed on. A STRAY contraband down South was late ly inspecting a horse power in operatiou, when he broke out thus: — "Mister, I have seen heaps of things in my life, but I never saw anything where a horse could do his own work andride himself too." AN old miser, who was notorious for self denial, was one day asked why he was so thin. "1 do not know," said the miser, "I have tried various means for getting fatter, but without success." •'Have you tried victuals?" inquired the friend. ■ • m A SCHOLAR, a bald matt, and a barber who were travelling together, agreed each to watch four hours at night, in turn, for the sake of security. The barber's lot came first, who shaved the scholar's head when asleep, then waked him when his turn came. The scholar scratching his head, and feeling it bald, ex claimed: "You wretch of a barber, you have waked the bald man instead of me." A I-AKY in Nashville, on mercy bent, was making a visit to the penitentiary, and was permitted to lock through the various wards. In one room she saw three women engaged in sewing, and turning to the keeper, who was showing her about, said to him in an under tone: "Dear me! the viciousest looking women I ever saw in my life! What are they put here for?" "They are here," he replied, "because I am here; they are my wife and daughters, madam." But the madam was traveling out as fast as possible. A TLX AS paper tells of a young couple who eloped on horseback accompanied by aclergy manwhowasto marry them. The lady's father gave chase, and was over takingtbe purty when the maiden called out to her clerical friend. ''Can you marry us as we run?" The idea took arid he commenced the ritual, and just as the bride's father clutched her bridle rein, the clergyman pronounced the lovers man and wife. The father was so pleased with the dashiDg action that, as the story goes, he gave jhern his blessing. IHE HEAD TERMED ROUND. —A crazy mau was found at a grindstone sharpening a large butcher knife, and now and then examining the edge to see if it was keen. "What are you doing here?" "Don't you see? sharpening this big knife." "Yes, but what arc you going to do with it when sharpened?" "Cut old Ben Brown's head off, to be sure." "What! you won't kill him, will you?" "Oh, no! I only exit his head oft'and stick it right on again, hind side before, just to 1 et the old fellow look back on his past life 1 It would take him all the rest of his life to re view it." What a queer idea the lunatic had iu his mind. And what if it were so, that every man when he reached a certain age had his face turned around, and was obliged to spend the rest of his days in looking over his past life !
