Fruit Culture in Pennsylvania
The recent meeting of the State Socie
ty in Philadelphia was not as fully attend
ed as in former years, through a wide
spread belief in the country that there was
danger from small-pox. It is singular
that people do not look at the figures.
There is here about 200 deaths per week
in population of about 700,000, or one in
about every 4,000. The figures from most
parts of the country show just about the
same, and it is therefore ridiculous to sup
pose one is safer at home than by going
abroad. However it had an influence on
this society's attendance by people from
neighboring counties while the attendance
from New York and other places was rather
better than usual.
There were many matters of interest to
fruit culturists introduced, especially one
in regard to the supposed deterioration of
the apple here. It was stated that not
more than five per. cent. of the apples con
sumed in Philadelphia were produced in
the State. It was shown, by numerous
successful instances, that the soil and cli
mate were as good as they ever were, and
it was generally concluded that the only
reason for failure, where there was failure,
was from either borers in the trunk, from
the attacks of the Codling moth in the
fruit, or from starvation iu the soil. The
remedy for the first is very simple. As
soon as a young orchard is planted, tie a
piece of paper round the stem about two
inches under ground, and five or six above,
and then gas-tar this paper. If not tied
too tight, the paper will last several years,
but should be re-tarred every other year.
this will keep away borers, and also tend
to preserve from mice and rabbits.
It was thought in regard to starvation,
that this often had much to do with failure.
In old times the soil was rich. Grain and
fruits needed no manure. In time we
found we had to manure, but forgot to ma
nure the fruit tree. Wherever they were
thus nourished theq did as well as grain,
or any other crop which we can grow.
The Codling moth, it was conceded, was
the most serious trouble. Yet much had
been accomplished even here. The habits
of the insect had been studied by the ento
mologist, and it was found that after the
egg deposited by the moth in the apple had
turned to a 'worm," the said worm left the
apple in search of some place to spin its
cocoon, and that it liked a dry, warm place.
Hence dry hay, woolen rags, and dry
shingles had been employed to put around
the tree or among the branches ; and an
immense number were caught. Again,
the moths which deposited the eggs could
be caught by the hundred by hanging
wide-mouth bottles through the trees, half
filled with vinegar and molasses in equal
parts. One grower reported that he had
caught, on a moderate estimate, last sum-
Iffetrorre - hundred thousand in this way. It
was objected that the moths no doubt did
much damage before they indulged in the
temptations of the bottle; but the increas
ing number of good fruit showed the ex
perimenter that many were caught before
they did mischief,
These few and simple facts in regard to
apple culture arc worth serious attention.
There is no fruit so desirable as this. No
doubt the whole human race, if to be con
fined to one fruit, would vote to let go the
grape or the pear or the peach, the most
favored of the tropical fruits, or the com
mon ones of the temperate zone, rather
than let the apple go. As a source of prof
it, also, there is no fruit equal to it. Only
get apples, and get them fine and healthy,
and there is never any cry of over-produc
tion or loss. And when they can be so
easily and so regularly produced by atten
tion to these simple and well ascertained
facts, it is to be wondered at if they are
not more generally a success with us than
they have been the last fifty years.—Week

Spring Chickens
Very early spring chickens are general
ly dear, and pay extraordinarily well for
raising, and they are much easier brought
through the cold weather of the latter part
of Feruary and the following month than
poople suppose, and practical knowledge is
worth much more than aught else, what I
am going to say can be done, and has been
accomplished extensively by the writer and
his better half. Having little birds, rath
er larger than pigeons, sell for 75 cents
each in April and May, giving a dollar per
couple clear profit, is making money fist
enough to satisfy reasonable people. The
way to do it is to have the hens all comforta
bly lodged in a warm roost by the let of
January.
Have some nice. snug, warmly-situated
nests in a place near the roost for the hens
to lay in, and contrive that they can go to
and from without going into the bad weath
er. and if they have been well fed they
will be laying when the new year begins,
and if Brahma blood is in them (half will
do) they will sit by the end of the month;
after hatching, put them in coops which
can be closed and made dark by fastening
up a front board—then in bad weather the
chickens can be fed by letting down the
board, and be shut up again as soon as
they have eaten, which will cause the hen
tosit still and nurse them till they are fed
again ; have no bottoms to the coops and
move every day, putting dry fine straw or
any kind of litter under the coop when the
ground is wit, but iu moderate whether or
whenever dry let them be on sod. Keep the
hen confined until the chickens area month
old, unless unusually mild, and let these
coops be on a slope facing the south, and
away from the haunts of the old fowls.
There are many days in February when
the chickens will run around the coop
picking blades of grass, &c., enjoying the
sunshine, which puts them in strong
health and clear confinment in cold spells
and during snow storms, which, with these
coops, do not hurt them at all ; and there
will be no dropping wings and no crying,
as there invariably is when little chickens
are raised in glass hot houses or in any
kind of houses or barns ; for in any of
these places they miss the fresh ground
to be daily moved on, and tin. fresh air
and sunshine which gives them an apetite
out of doors, however spacious the apart
ments may be. I have had to dig the
snow away from the coops several times in
one season, and brush places for them to
be placed on, which is quickly done by
having a spare coop and going from one to
the other with a basket; and by 10 or 11
o'clock the whole of the broods, from 30
to 40 coops, would be seen as brisk as bees,
a dozen or more at each coop, and racing
to meet the feeder.
The feed requires variation and should
be given every two or three hours—say
one day scalded meal at 7—wheat or bar
ley at 9—cracked corn at 12—liver or other
meat chopped fine, at 2—and breal sopped
in milk with oats or any dry grain, at 4,
and then shut up. Next day, y egg shells
broken fine mixed with the morning's first
meal, and give one feed of some kind of
sprouted grain in about such a stage as
malt is made, and vary this feeding as con
venient, and as the chickens seem to pre
fer one form to another; for generally what
they like best is best for them, as nature
seldom gives desire for that which is not
good—and in case of anything being too
rich, it will cloy them till the system re
quires more.—Country Gentleman.
