ABOCT LOT'S Wint—A lady read
er of the B*irter drop* us a note, a* fol- j
laws"Mr. Kurt*-—Can you tell ma
noma*.hing about Lot'a wifa and the pillar
of salt, bow long was it standing, and ia it '
Kill to ba roan."
Well, yas, dear, wa can. By reading in
Ganaais you will find that Lot'a wife, like
some of ker sisters, die just tha contrary
of whit ska was bidden to do—sha looked
back. Aa wa ware too mock a minor at
the lima, wa can not give you much more
about her. Aa to the pillar of salt into
which tha waa' turned, Joaephnt, who
wrote in tha first century, says, that it
atoodin his day, and that be taw it; Cle
ment of Home testifies the same, and Ire
naeua nays that it waa standing in the next
century, and modern travelers say it ia still
ttandlcg, bat that# latter must be taken
witb same grains of doubt Prof. W his ton
•ays, -IU remote situation, at the utmost
southern point of the sea of Sodom, in tb*
wild and dangerous deserts of Arabia,
makes H exceeding difficult far inquisitive
travelers to examine the place." Howev
er, we know this pillar of salt is not in
Pennevaliey, at least we have not yet seen
it. From the destruction af Sodom to tha
day* of the Jewish historian, Josephus,
who say# he saw the pillar of salt, were
nearly 2000 years, and if it existed that
long, it is not unreasonable to suppose that
it it still standing. This habit of "looking
back" is still in fashion witb lots of women
now-a-days. but they look back to tee
their trails, which is just as bad at when
Lot's wifa looked back upoa Sodom. Al
though there are no other women that bave
been turned into salt, yet there ar* many
whs prove so salty that thair husbands re
sort to drinking . We suppose Lot'a wife
was a woman's right woman, and consid
ered tha bad a right to look back, and tbe
Susan Anthonay', of to-day, era reminded
that there is a passage ia scripture which
unjoins them to "Beuiembar Lot's wife."
which may saem rathar obsolete to tbem,
and thay would render it, Husbaads, re
member your wives and let them vote.

wa were surprised to hav* him inform us
that he was now over 90 years of age—hit

more sprightly, vigorous, and bate than
moat men of a& and tit), and no one, not
knowing him, would take him to be oldar.
Mr. DeLong us he can wade the
streams and perform other labor with the
same case aud with M little fatigue as he
did 25 years ago, and notwithstanding ha
can look back upon the nineties, he teems
to have the promise of twenty five more
before him. May they be scored to hi*

How FKCIT Tata* Snoi'tK LIE Pi ASTSI>
First— Your tras should never be planted
deeper than they originally grew when
takan from the nursery, and atler planting
they should have a good mulching ol
straw, partly rotsan fo ktep then> moist
Kvary fall they should be manured with
stable manure, or compost of lime and
chip-dirt, and be trimmed out to lot the
virtue# of the manure through the lop*
No sprouts should ba left to grow a)>out the
trunks of the tree*. Washing with soap
suds is vary good to prevent insects fram
operating undarttic this willde
•troy them. You might at well expeol to
raise a good crop of corn by planting and
'hen letting it have ita own chance, and
leaving the weed* grow up to destroy it
The isniv bold* good a* regard* fruit trees
By planting ana to them
afterwards, you cannot expect a g>oo crop.j
I do not care how excellaut your varieties
are you can not have fina fruit without
proper attention.
At regards grafting large trees, 1 think
it a great improvement, avail on good va
rietiea—it will give you fruit ever; year.
My experience is thi* : I change the tops
of tree* lh*j grf over 40 years old, and the
tops of which ara dialog. •ta# yh'cß ara !
putting out young sprouts—that* sprouts 1
I graft and remove tbe dieing branches
and in tha course of two or three year* the
graft* bearing. New I have'
such trees, 7s years old, bean,.g Ci.fi crops.
But what 1 said shove as to the care for
your young traea, it applies also to your
grafting. Tha watar sprouts should be
kept from about them, and kepi thinned
out. My reason for putting on different
varieties is this: Soma will bear una yaar
and tha others the neat year. I have tome
trees with very full branches one year,
while tha fallowing yaar the branches
which had no fruit the year before are full.
There are now farmer* with 'A) acres of.
land who should have good supply of
fhiit—even thoae that own but one act*,
should have part of thai in fruit trees. At
to the proper time far pruning—l prefer
the tall aftrrtha leaves arc off tha tree* - i
say th* l*t of November -tne wounds will
dry up, and no sap laikt out. The water
sprouts should be removed in the month
of August. I have practiced this for tome
years and find it to be the best plan. 1
bave tried pruning in tha spring when

Ma. KI KTZ.—It may bo interesting, aa l
wall gj beneficial, to make a few criticisms
in regard tutu# vwojiictpracticed by soine
of the youths of this village it ha* been
to our regret to hear remarks made by
strangers, at well a* citizens, about the im
prudent manner in which some of the
young mfn of Cei.trc llail conduct them
selves. We bave beva frequent observers
of actions indulged in by the slrael-loafars,
which were astonishing, and strangers can
very readily form an opinion of the char
acter of the same. But who it to blame.
—th* parents are probably unaware of
tha toiifopfjupt of tLcir boys. Wa were
pained, a faw days ago, to yitnw| a pitiful
sight. An old man known aa "Charley
Farley," while walking our streets, was
perniciously net upon by a number of boys,
who snow-ballad him until he reached a
place of shelter. Bince the revival has
barn in progress in the Ev. church, quiet
and unmolesting cifizens. whilst returning'
from chupch, gerr treated l h* mol aby-i
tive and insulting manner, by these cgpri- i
cioua youths,—a manner unbecoming to |
the decencv and morality o( Centra Hall.
Young won remembtr tho words of
Franklin, "The want of behavior, is tho
want of sen*#." CMTIO.
Philipsburg is to be manufactured
into a summer resort, a* will be observed
by tho following move, which wa clip!

fects, so far as business it concerned are'
not only for the benefit of producers and
IcoHtmiu, but also for ail other intrg*i*j
that land to bring thuse two parlies in
speedy and contact. Hence
w* hold that trans|K>rlat ion companies of
#v#iy kind are necessary to our success,
that tbeir inter*,ts are intimately canned
ed with our interests and harmonious ac '
lion is mutually advantageous. Kseping
fin vliw the |tl senlynpe in our tjeelgra
tion of principles of action that individual i
happiness depends upon gensrwl prosperi
ty, si shall therefore advocate for every
| Stat* the increase in evaiy practicable
way of all facilities for transporting cheap
ly to to lha seaboard or between hues*
producer* and consumers ail productions
of our country We adopt it a* our filed
purpose to open out the channel* in na
ture's great arteries that the life-blood of
coenmerce may flow fravly. We are not
enemies of taiiroada, &** msbl* anj lega
ting canals nor of any corporations that
will advance our industrial inlcraeta. nor
of any laboring classes In our neble ordsr
there i* no communism, no agrarisnism
We are opposed to such spirit and man
sgctnctit of any corporation or cnterpr.se
a* tend* to oppress the people and rohj
them of their just proflu. We are hot en
emie* to capital, but we oppose the ty ran
ny of monopolies. We long to see antag
onism betwcin capital and labor removed'
hy pctntnon consent, and by an enlighten
ed statesmanship worthy of the niucleeiuii
century. We are opposeJ to excessive,
saltries, high rate* of interest and exorbi-.
tant i-er cent, of profits in trade. They:
greatly increase our burden* and do not
bear a proper proportion to tbe proflu of
produces*. \Vjj desire only self-proleo
< tion and protection of every t u* Inter '
est of our land by legitimate transactions,
legitimate trade and legitimate profits.
We shall advance the cause oi education
among ourselves anJ for our children by
all jutt turan* within our power. We es
pecially advocate f.-r our agricultural and
industrial college* that prn< (icgl Agricul
ture, domestic science and gll the *rti
w hich tdorn tke home be taught in their
course* of study
Fifth, Wt emphatically and sincerely
assert the oft repeated truth taught in our
organic law that the Orange, National,
State, or tub >rdinate it not a )>olitical or
party organisation. No grange, if true to
its obligation can discus* political or re
ligiout qui ttiona, nor call political conven
lions, nor nominate candidal**, nor even
ditcuw their merit* in lit meeting, yet the
principle* we teach underlie all true pol
itic*, all true *t*tciman*bip ( and, if prop
erly carried out, will tend to purify the
whole political atmosphere of our country,
for ma seek the grcmle*l geod to tho great
ctt number, but we mutt alwnyi bear in
mind that no one, by bocoming a grange
member, give* up that inalienable right
and duty which belong* to every Ameri
can citizen to take a proper intercut In tho
politic* of hia country. On the contrary.
lit i right for every member to do nfl in

j tho principle* which thouiu alwa.vt char
acterize every grange nicn.ber that the
office uliould tvrk the man, and not tha
' man the ollire. W> acknowledge the
i broad principle that difference of opinion
I it no crime, and hold that program toward*
i truth i made by difference* of opinion,
i while the fault ie in the bip.ernesi of
controversy. We desire a proper equal

weak, icstraint upon the strong, in horl
justly distributed burden* and juttly di

' In our agricultural brotherhood and it*

to assist in our effort* toward* reform,
that we may eventually remove from our
