Spring Work. UI.KAMKO Til!'. TIltlNKS 01' I'MJIT TUKP.S. Oormantown Telegraph, ' Now, liuforo tho wmm wcntlivr flly.cfl life mid motion lo ninny Insects wlio uso tlio limkn of lrecn for their winter iuu Icrp, Is ns good tinio us :uiy anil before nolivo outdoor work begins to elenn oil nil tho moss ninl siipoilliious or old bark from tho trunks of treefl. Not only tho Insects, but their millions of ogirH, nnd tho seeds of various blights nnd mildews nro shel tered in tho ereylccs nnd rough places of Iho old barks, moss, fco. It should bo la,ken for granted that tho nppear unco of tho vogetablo orgnnlsms on tho steins of troes, ns well ns upon tho balk of tho trunks, shows thnt some thing has already gone wrong. Some thing has jiroveuted tho lice lrom thriving ns It should havo done, nnd because it did not thrive tho moss fob lowed. When, therefore, wo mnko up our minds to look after tho moss, it will bo ns well to find out what is tho matter with tho tree, anil if possible plaeo it in a position to throw off, ns it growR, tho dead bnrk on which tho mosses nnd sickness fee'. The stunted condition of the trees whlcli induces mossy and hide-bound bark Is more frequently the result of starvation than anything else. When u tree does not expand fast tho bark is not thrown off but remains on the tree to slowly decay i but with n rapid expansion it is thrown oft ns n treo swells nnd thus keeps Us ownself clenu. Starvation keeps tho tree from grow ing. A liberal supply of good food making a treo thrive nnd expand rap idly, is one 0 tho best means of keep ing n treo clean and clear of moss. When a treo bus onco got into its burdened -condition, nioio manuring wjll'hardly get it out of it alone. In such cases orchardists mnko use of n Hbcrni application of tho pruning knife cutting away all tho branches which may seem to bo pretty well hardened or stunted. This brings on n freo growth of foliage tho next sea son, nnd n freo growth is ono of tho best ways to keep tho main steins clean. Much can bo done in tho.carly spring with those old starved and stunted trees towards getting them to do bet ter. Tho loose bark may bo scraped off, and evon washed with weak pot ash water or soft soap. Tho branches which scenv gone beyond recovery, or aro too weak or so much stunted as to promiso little in Iho future, may bo cut away, and soitio good feitilfzing material may bo Inuled and spread under tho trees. As lo what is a good fertilizer lor fruit trees much has been written, but wo believe for the apple and pear al most anything that comes convenient ly to haild is good. Wo knew years ago ono very successful applo raiser wild used nothing whatever but ashes from tho kitchen. Tlieso wcro always saved expressly for his apple orchard nnd spread evenly on tho ground under eauh tree. It is commonly said that there is no nutrition in anthracite coal ashes, and perhaps there is not ; but it is a fact that tlieso trees grew amazingly, and boron largo ci op of tho most beautiful fiuit. It may bo that tho wood ashes from tho "kind ling," and perhaps some kitchen re fuse among tho rest, were tho chief fertilizing ingredients. J5o that ns it may, this orchard wns a grand success. Tho bnik was always smooth and hoilthy looking, without any washing or scraping. Nothing in tho orchard line could look better. Wo havo known others who used simply tiitih cleanings, or good top soil from wet places, and always with consider able increase in tho apparent health and vigor of tho tree. lTsr. ok Plastek and Asnr.s. Ilen ly Ives, one of the best farmers in far famed Western New York, writes thus sensibly to tho Tribune: "To use plaster 011 any of our growing crops required so slight a cast and so often proves bcuciici.il, that one can hardly afford to neglect its application, although occasionly no perceptible advantage is derived from it, and, nt best, wo scarcely look for benefit ex cept for the one season and the ono crop. But in uirg ashes wo aro more sure of benefit, and its good effects are so lasting that after ono liberal appli cation, say of from oO to 100 bushels per aero (though if leached ashes aro used ono could safely apply three to sis times this quantity), tho" eflect will show for five, ten or even fifteen years, by increasing fertility. When apply ing plaster to corn", or plaster nnd guano, phosphalo or hen manure, or even with a small quantitv of ashes (in all casts from 100 to 200 weight to tho acre is enough of tho plaster), tho ingredients bhould bo prepared and well mixed on tho bain tloor, loaded into an open wagon, bo as to have it along convenient to tho work, and nl-most-nny t'nno In tho early growth of tho corn apply a small handful to each hill, not us some do, by throwing it carelessly in a compact heap near to tho hill, but ns it is thrown sifting through tho fingers givoit an evon distribution all about tho hill. Hut niter tho com is a little moro advanced I believe it would do it more good, nnd without costing much If any more, to uso two or three times as much of the fertilizing mixture, sowing it broad oast over tho field. If, instead, tho farmer could apply 00 or SO bushels of nshos to tho acre, it should bo dono before planting or seeding, so as to bo well mixed with soil when preparing it for the seed bed. This, I believe, is tho most lasting of any kind of fer tilizer, and ouo of tho cheapest, too, when the nshos can bo obtained with out costiuir more than 2.' or 30 cents n bushel. After such nu application of iisiH-p, ur uuier let unzer, or manure, it is still just as desirable as ever to plaster tho corn growing on such fer tilized laud." He Was the Wrong Man. Several weeks ago, by special enact ment of the legislature, the governor offered n reward of $200 for an Ar kansaw man who is not a judge, col onel, major, or captain. The next day n plain, unassuming man called upon tho governor, nnd said : "I havo tho lienor, sir, to claim tho reward you offered lor a man who is neither a judge, colonel, major, nor captain. 1 nm neither of these." "I nm glad to meet you, bir," said tint I'nvi rnor. "Just sit down n mo ment until I attend to n little matter of business. The man took .1 seat, and tho gov criior went into nu ndjoiuing room, ami, nfter u moment, called 1 "Colonel." "Yes, err," snld tho gentleman mis- 'That's all right," mnmked tho gov ernor. ' "I eeo you nro a colonel. Porter, please bliow tho military gen tleman to tho door, and admit tho next man." Quality of Eggs. A uenticman onco remonstrated with Ills miirkct-womnii on tho high prico of her eggs, to which sho replied 1 "Kggs 19 eggs now-n days, 1 would havo you know,' meaninir that they were scarce. "1 nm very glad to know It,'' snld tho gentleman, ''for the last I bought of you were chickens." Kggs nro eggs, whatever may bo tho price, but thero is n difference in tho quality even of fresh eggs. They me nil manufactured alike, but they nro not 11 .... 1 r .1 .-I'-l I iiiikiu 111 iiiubiihiu jiiiuitiiii, mm iium-u tho difference. It is n wcll cstnbllshed fact that tho food of fowls nffects tho tnsto of tho eggs ns well ns tho tnsto of their tlesh. Tho ilcsh of wntrr fowls thnt live on fish hns n fishv flavor, nnd their eggs partake ol tho same. So tho oilor nnil llavor ol onions may Do de tected In tho eggs of barn-yard fowls, and It docs not always require n detect ive to perccivo it. All this might bo in ferred from tho slightest knowledge of animal physiology, and is proved by actual experience. "The quality of eggs cannot bo ascer tained in tho market, excepting ns to whether they nro fresh or nddledj tho proof is tho'snino ns in tho caso of n pudding it is in the eating, lint those who keep fowls nnd havo their eggs laid to order may know beforehand what is lo bo their quality. If you have tho tight kind of fowls, it depends largo ly on their food. Fowl should bo kept in a clean, wholesome place. They should havo clean food to eat nnd only clean water to drink. Thev should not bo allowed to live on tho ifuughill, but should havo plenty of good and whole somo food. Corn and wheat aro good enough for a staple diet. Buckwheat will not furnish ns rich eggs as cither of those. Fowls should havo somo kind of green food. In summer they gather it for themselves when thoy run at large; in winter it should bo provided for thejn. Cabbage and olhcr vegetables Bhould bo laid up expressly for their uso in the winter season. In order, to ensure their laying freely they require some kind of. animal food. In summer they gather it by catching grasshoppers ami various kinds of insects, but .in winter they have no such resource. He fuso pieces of meat, liver, etc., may bo obtained at tho butchers, and scraps of meat from thu table should bo given them. But whatever they feed on, caro should bo taken to havo it cleanly. It is well worth the experiment to try dif ferent kinds of food, nnd then test tho quality of tho eggs. Great satisfaction will bo found in tho result of good caro and clenu feeding. Betting on a Certainty. I 'i the British nrmy, India,betting among tho otlicers often runs to an extreme of vice that is sometimes fearful to con template. Perhaps it is no worse than in club life in Loudon, where tho most ntuiifing as well as tragical stories aro told of the curious bets that nro made. Betting on a certainty isr.held lb bo un fair, unless tho avowal is distinctly made, so that no undue advantago is ta ken. An officer in the army had impoitcd for his private apartments .1 nesv and beautiful mahogany table'. A day or two after it had arrived and had been duly installed in his quarters; n brother otticer, a great swell nnd very unpopu lar, dropped in familiarly, and greatly admired .the beautiful table. Tho own er was shaving himself at tho glass with his back toward his visitor Colo nel Brown but continued the. conver sation until tho colonel withdrew, the latter remarking that ho soon hoped to have his legs under that elegant ma hogany. , Tho owner of tho table, whom we must call Major Jones, mado up a little dinner partv in the courso of a few days, and Colonel Brown was ono of mo uumiier. it was natural that tho now table should bo tho subject of re mark, and Brown, who affected to be a connoisseur in all matters, said tho ta bio was perfect, with oue exception. Jones, "and pray what is that, colo uelf Brown. "It is just a little too high." Jones. "Do you think so 1 flow high would you suppose it to bo !"' Brown. "I presume it is the usual height, just thirty six-inches, nnd it ought to be less than that by at least half an inch." Jones. "That is tho exact height, thirty-five and a half inches, not thirty six as you suppose." Brown. "Pardon me. I am certain it is three feet high : I will make you abet on it." Jones. "You will lose if you do, fori give you notice that I know its exact height to bu half an inch, and if I bet I shall bet to a dead certainty." Brown. "I am just as sure as you are; I am betting on a dead certainty also ; my eye never deceives me. I will lay you a hundred or .1 thousand pounds that this table is thirty-six inches high j no more, no less." The major sought to dissuade his guest from his purpose to make a bet, assuring him that he knew tho height of tho table, and did not want to bet 611 n ceuiainty, but when tho excitement grow furious, the wager was finally laid nt an enormous sum I havo heard it stated us high as $50,000 10,000 That seems preposterous, whou such a tritle was tho subject, but tho gambling spirit does not stick nt trilles. When tho betting wns finally arranged, Colo tiel Brown exclaimed, exulHngly, I told you I knew tho table was just thirty six inches high : I did know it, because when I called, just after it had arrived, I took its measure on my canb as I eat by it, and after I went out I measured, and found it to be, as I have said, pre cisely thirty six inches high. "Yes," said Major Jones, "I was sit ting with my back toward you, but I was shavinj; before tho looklnir-irlass. nnd I saw you take tho measure of tho table with your cane, buspectmgth.it you were preparing for a bet ns to its height, nfter you left I had n half nit men tnKcn oil, and it is now precisely thirty five and a half Inches high." The apphuso that followed this re sult was tremendous, nnd completed Hie uiscomniure 01 the unpopular colo nel. It was evident that ho had been laying plan to cheat, and would have pocketed tho money if ho had won. Ho wns sent to Coventry. Ho sold his commision nnd returned to Kuulaud, being unable to stand up against the contempt of the olUeors, who thoro'iirh ly despised his character. Warper juigastMjor .prtt.

Already many hundreds of horse nro being transferred from tho Imperinl stables of St. Peters burg to Moscow. The number of these animals required for the occasion may bj surmised from tho fact that tho min ister of the imperial household has is sued nu order to cnanira 1,200 volun teers ns slnblemen in ndditlon to tho rcirulnr men In tho employment. Thir ty-six gilded closed carriages nnd four gilded open carriages arc to bo pent to Moscow for tho occasion. These vehi cles must, of course, bo moro Imposing man comtortamc, since thoy mostly be long to tho Btyio ol carriage mado n century nnd even moro ngo. Most of them were constructed in tho beginning of tho eighteenth century, wliilo others wcro mndo in tho reigns of Alexnndci I. nnd Nicholas I. Constiicuonsnmonir them is the magnificent gilded carringo presented to tho empress Elizabeth of Knssln by Frederick the (treat in 17-16. These forty carriage, with tho invited guests, will bo drawn by 188 horses, lifty-uino of which havo been recently imported from Hauovcr expressly for tho purpose, nnd nro reported to bo n splendid .ct ot horses all aliko as peas and all ol n inniruilieent bay shade. Two ermine lined purple coronation mantles havo been ordered of tho denier 111 furs, Grunwnld, of Moscow. Thesu mantles nro to bo about seven yards in lencth, with an imperial curie embroid ered in gold on the back of each of them. The dress which is to bo worn by tho empress at tho coronation is be ing embroidered in the famous atelier of Lomnu, in Moscow. It will consist of finely woven silver cloth, all cm broidcied in silver, a irnrliiiid of em broidery nearly n yard tvido running around the bottom ol tho skitt nnd covering tho train. The train alone, consisting almost entirely ot silver, is to weigh moicthnu twenty pounds. the old capitnl ot uussia is to disomy tho greatest hospitality on that occa sion. All the numerous monasteries, all private houses, aro undergoing re pairs in order to offer accommodation to the expected guests. Nono of the persons s.immoncd for the occasion to Moscow by the imperial decree aro to bo quartered in hotels j tho houses of the nobility, of tho notables nnd of tho dignitaries, of the church, arc open to those. Tho Metropolitans of St. Peters burg and of Kief, who nro to crown the Czar, are to havo n splendid set of rooms 111 tho two larco historic monas teries of Moscaw, and likewise will bo accommodated tho other twelve prel ates who are to officiate nt the cora- natiou. The nobles of the government of Moscow, in council assembled, have de cided to offer tho traditionary bread and salt to the. monarch on a plate which is to cost .o.OOO rubles. Thoy have resolved to give a ball to the Em peror at which, 111 order to avoid a crowd, but 2,700' persons will bo pies out, though tho house of the nubility in Moscow may easily contain over 1,000 guests. Fifteen thousand rubles have been voted for tho decoration of the ball room, ns much more for the restoration of furniture, nnd nil ex penses considered, the ball to be given by the nobility is very likely to cost 100,000 rubles, which sum will be lev ied as a self-imposed tax from tlio in come ot tho landed proprietors of the government of moscow, who are all ea ger to extend their hospitality to tho Czar aud Czaritza.

Paget Sound is considered one of tlio most remarkable bodies of water in the world. It is suriouuded by continuous forests that reach bick to the summits of tho Cascade and Olympic ranges. Tho streams that como down from tho mountains on every side have fertile valleys ; somo of them already occu pied and well cultivated. Puyallup and White Hivers nnd their ntlluents nro well settled but there is abundant room for settlers 011 tho Snouualmic, Snohomish, Squak, '.Skagit and Noot sack, as well as on a valley in What com county, wheio Frazer's Hiver once flowed. It was olee believed that the laud around tho sound was worthless, and that its forests stood on rock with out soil ; but time has demonstrated that this is only true of a small extent of country near the Sound, and that all tho upland between the streams and extending to tho mountains, is rich, deep soil that will produce anything that will grow in that climate.
