THE APFLE ORCHARD.
WHT TREES DIE OCT WITHOUT GIVING
DUE RETURNS, WITH A REM EOT.
A paper read before the Potomac
Fruit Growers at their April meeting
points out the cause and the remedy for
apple trees that die out befor giving due
returns for the time and land they oc
cupy. Mr. Peison began his paperwit h
the assumption that a soil composed of
clay, with a subsoil composed of sand
and gravel, is the proper composition
for healthy growth and long life of the
tree.
He said if such a location cannot be
had, or if an orchard isaiready growing
upon clay soil and upon subsoil, as many
of the decaying orchards are, the reme
dy is to lay deep under-diains near
enough together to thoroughly drain
every part. Apple trees cannot long en
dure wet feet. It is a waste to plant an
orchard where, however rich the soil
may be, there is a cold, impenetrable
mass of wet, clay. Light soils of sand
or gravel without a mixture of clay are
unsuitable to the full development of
the tree and the profitable production of
fruit.
It is of the first importance that the
varieties selected for a permanent or
chard should be such as have been pro
ved well adapted to the section. A
few thoroughly tested sorts for summer.
I fall and winter are decidedly preferable
to a multitule of every kind advertised
by ambitious nurserymen.
Winter apples are the most desirable
to grow largely, provided we find gooj
varieties that will keep well. Limber
twig i3 placed first on the list for winter
in the Potomac region. The tree is a
vigorous grower, bears abundautantly
every year; the apples cling to the tree
until November, and will keep well un
til April.; fruit medium size, subacid,
solid, rich and good flavor.
The Winsapand Oarthouse or Roman
ite are excellent varieties : trees vigor
ous growers, full learing every year,
but such extremely diy weather we have
had last season caused them to fall off
and rot early in the winter. The Pri
mate is a large red and white apple,
very tender, juicy, rich flavor, bears
abundantly every year, commencing to
ripen in August after summer apples
are gone, and continues lipening until
November. The other two varieties
named are too well known to need re
commending or describing.
The preparation of the soil should be
thorough ; by under-draining, if neces
sary, as we have said ; by deep cultiva
tion and enriching, so that the land
would raise a good crop of corn. Set
the trees thirty feet apart each way if
the 'orchard is designed to occupy the
land exclusively.
" Mulch around the trees every summer
until the limbs shade the ground suffi
cient to protect the ro'its fn.m the hot
summer sun. The ground may be crop
ped with potatoes or com for four or five
years until the trees get snfllcient size
and strength for bearing. To bring tfie
trees into bear'ng, seed the land with
rye, clover and timothy in August.
After the ground is well covered turn
on a flock of sheep, keeping them on un
til October every year ; they will eat the
wormy apples as they fall, so that what
are left will le fair and sound, and the
fruit will continue to improve from year
to year ; thev will keep down all suck
ers as far as they can reach, and the
land will not need plowing oftener than
once in four or five years. Destroy ev
ery coccoon or caterpillar nest as soon as
they can be discovered.

The Spade Superseded bt the
Fork. We notice that the spade in
garden work is still considerably used ;
and the knowledge that the spade has
in great measure been superseded by
the fork has not traveled near so much
as it ought to have done. We see many
a one "digging garden," and prepaiing
for spring, spade in hand, utterly un
conscious that with a modern digging
fork a man can do as much in a day,
and with less fatigue, as with an old
fashioned spad; it would take him two
dys to do. In the use of a fork there
is no dicrincr to do. The tines run into
the earth by the downward descent of
the fork in the operator's hands alone ;
and throwing over and leveling, a single
blow of the tines is enough to pulverize
and make a level surface. Some say
their land is too light that the earth
passes through, and they cannot take
up a forkfull : but in tins case work it
when it is a little wet. Even sandy
ground can b dug with a fork, if the
proper time is chosen for it. Of course,
the spade can never be abandoned.
There will always b some ground
weedy or full of roots, which a sharp
edge like that of a spade will be neces
sary to sever ; and in digging up trees
and garden vegetables, nothing can re
place the spade ; lint there are a numlier

DEAR POTATOES SUBSTITUTES.
As shown in last December's Ameri
can Agriculturist, potatoes are always an
expensive food, more than four-fifths of
their weight being nothing but simple
water. Flour at 510 dollars a barrel
pnpplies as much actual nutriment for
the same money as potatoes at 50 cents
a bushel, and corn at Jl dollar a bushel
supplies quite as cheap nourishment as
potatoes at 30 cents a bushel. But tbe
majority of consumers in New York and
many other places who buy at retail now
pay fully f 1.50 per bushel for potatoes,
equivalent at least to $15 per barrel for
fiour, or corn at ?4 to ?5 a bushel. In
December wedfscriled some substitutes
for potatoes. The following are in the
same line :
Rice cakes do well, especially for
breakfast, made thus : Cook the rice
thoroughly in a farma kettle, and while
still quite warm, mould it into round
cakes flattened ; this to le done the pre
vious day or evening. In tin morning
dip them into beaten egg, and fry it in
lard or drippings, until of a delicate
brown. They are very palatable to eat
with meat, or with sugar and cream if
thus preferred. The coating of egg
keeps them firm, prevents too much fat
penetrating, and adds to their pood
tast and nutritiousnpsa.
Corn meal and hominy, if rightly
cooked are very palatable, and even at
the present high price of com. are much
tbe most economical, nourishing food.
We prefer hominy not the lye-hulled,
unbroken kernals, called hominy in
some parts of the country but simply
the machinehulled corn. coarsely ground.
The secret of cooking hominy or com
meal, especially the latter, is to mix it
thin, and cook it thoroughlv without
burning, which cooking will thicken it
enough, It can best be done in a farina
kettle, or even by putting it into a smal
ler tin pail, and set this in a larger one
partly filled with water kept briskly
boiling. If in a single vessel, constant
starring is important to prevent any
part of it from scornhinar, as that will
affect tbe flavor of the whole. If thor
oughly cooked and in sufficient quanti
ties for'use. hominy or meal will keep
well in a cool place for two or three
days or more, to be drawn upon when
wanted. It is excellent when cut into
pieces of any siz, five-eights to three
quarters of an inch thick, and fried, to
le eaten with meats or with syrun. As
little lard as will prevent it sticking to j
the griddle shoul 1 be used, for if satnr-
ated Willi grease, or cooked iieyond a
light biown, it is much less digestible
and nutritions. If housekeepers will
give proper attention to thorough cook
ing, without the slightest scorching
either in boiling or frying, and exercise
some skill and taste in the preparation
and serving, they may greatly reduce the
table expenses by making corn meal a
leading dish at almost everv meal.

Eat Pt.kntt of Fat Meat. Tn a
late nnmlnpr of the Scalpel, in an article
on "l)iet,,? Dr. Dixon, in assumine the
position that "the use of oil would de
crease the victims of consumption nine
tenths, and that is the whole secrtt of
the use of cod-liver oil,'" quotes the fol
lowing summary of observation on this
subject, made by Dr. Hooker.
1. Of all the persons between the a ares
of fifteen and twenty-one years, more
than one-fifth eat no fat meat.
2. Of persons at, the acre of 42. all, ex
cept incr less than one in rifly, habitually
use fat, meat.
3. Of persons who, between the apres
of 15 and 22, avoid, fat meat, a few ac
quire an apietite for it, and live to a
pood old acre, while a greater ortion
die with phthisis before thirty-five.

meat.
Most individuals who avoid fat meat
also use little butter or oily gravies,
t qough many compensate far this want ,
in part, by a free use of those articlf-s,
and also milk, eggs, and various saccha
rine substances. But they constitute
an imperfect substitute for fat meat,
without which sooner or later the boly
is almost sure t" show the effects of de
Ocient calorification.

A coRRKsrnNDEXT of the Boston
Globe, says : "An experiment made last
year by myself may not come amiss at
this time with those who grow straw
berries. I procured half a hogshead.
Clied it with rain water, and put into it
one quarter pound of ammonia and one
quarter pound" of common nitre. When
the strawtierry plants were blossoming
out I eave them a sprinkling of the so
lution at evening, twice a week, until
the fruit was nearly ripe. The result
was double the amount of fruit on those
where the liquid was applied to where
none of the liquid was applied."
ANew York farmer states that he
uss only coai gas tar toprevent the rav- !
ages of the potato beetle. lie puts a '
gallon of tar in a tub, over which lie
pours boiling water, which is allowed
to settle and cool. This is sprinkled
over the vines with an ordinary Rprink- !
Jer. A gallon of tar, costing 75 cents,
suffices for several acres of potatoes.
A sttoof.stiov for hoaseness worthy i
of trial is the use of common horse-rnd-
Ish prepared in Kngnr one part to nine j
p;irts o'' sugar. A little of this mixture !
in the mouth, swallowed slowlv, gives 1
relief. The remedy (horse-radish) is not '
a new one, but, to us, the sugar way of j
usiug it seems to 1 a new and a good j
one.
