To Make Fruit Trees Bear.
S?tue pear trees which make a rapid
growth of wood, are vet very slow in yield
ing fruit. The Autumn De.igamot is one
of this class, often growing steadily for j
ten or twelve years without producing a
solitary pear. An orchardist may well
become impatient with such trees, and
cast about for some method to expediale
their fruitftilncss.
Let him try root pruning. Late in the
Autumn, or early in the winter, uncover
the ends of the roots, and with a sharp
spade, cut off the tap-root, if there be one,
and shorten the side roots more or less
according to the luxuriance of the tree. —
The side roots should be removed with a j
pruning knife, and with an upward drawn
cut. At the first operation let the prun
ing be moderate.
Another method is to transplant uou
bearing trees frequently —say every two i
or * three years. Of course, this can be ;
done only ou trees of a moderate size.— j
This is in reality, a sort of root-pruniug. ;
ft checks the flow of the sap to the ex- !
trealities, and converts side buds into ;
fruit spurs. Trees so treated should be
kept vigorous by ample manuring. Mr.
Livers, of England, an eminent pornolo- ,
gist, practices this method extensively to '
bring new varieties into early bearing. lie j
prefers it to grafting on the quince, be- |
•cause, after his trees have been te.-ted he i
can withhold rout-pruning, and his trees j
then assume the qualities of standards. —
lie does not recommend the long continu- .
a nee of this practice on any one tree. Too 1
long, and too severe root-pruning injures
the quality of the fruit and shortens the j
life of the tree. — Amer. Agriculturalist, j
How TO MAKE TOMATO FIGS. —Pour
boiling water over the tomatoes in order
to remove the skin ; thou weigh than and
place them in a stone jar with us much
sugar as you have tomatoes, and let them
stand two days ; then pour oif the syrup
and boil and skim it until no more scum
rises. Then pour it over the tomatoes
and let them stand two days as but re,
then boil ami skim again. After the third
time they are fit r dry, if the weather is
good, if not let them stand in tiie syrup
until drying weather. Then place them
on larse earthen plates or dishes ttti i put
them in the sun to dry, which will take
about a week, after which pack them in
small wooden boxes, with fine white sugar
between every layer. Tomatoes prepared
in tiiis manner will keep for years.—Ger

RAW MEAT IS DYSENTERY -Dr. Wei see
of St. Petersburg, first in advised the
employment of the lean of raw meat, very
finely minced, in the chronic diarrhoea of
children, giving two spoonfuls four times
a day. Since then the same practice ha
often been extended to various forms of
obstinate diarrhoea with good effect. In
the present paper, M. Peusa, now practis
ing in Egypt, reports the benefit he has
derived in several cases of severe dysen
tery occurring in the adults from the em
ployment of raw, or nearly raw, minced
tncat, given in doses of from two to three
ounces three times a day. — Electric Medi
cal Journal.
EFFECTS OF S IL AND LOCATION UPON
FRUIT —As to the effect that location and
soil have upon fruit, I knew an orchard of
Putnam Kus>ets situated on a bottom,
and extending up a steep gravely hill slop
ing to the south ; the fruit on the level
land was coar.-c and tart, without any rich
color; while that on the gravely slope was
rich, firm, high-flavored, and of a brilliant
yellow, approaching to red, russet coat,
aud yellow fleshed. Au orchard of my
own planting, of Golden Russets, on simi
lar locations gave the same results. Cur.
Ohio Fanner.
To PREVENT TURKEYS STRATUM; FROM
HOME. — It was stated in conversation that
turkeys will not leave ihe yard in which
they are put, if a strip of red flannel is tied
•uouu'l the wing lung enough to trail on
the ground. The receipt is simple and
easily tried, and if effective, would prove
of great benefit in removing a source of
much loss and annoyance to the turkey
breeder. The vanity of the fowl is pro
bably affected by this means, as he wo'd'ut
wish to run tnc ri j k of seeing strangers
with this drag upon bis dignity. Country
Gentleman.
TOMATO PRESERVES. —Take the round
yellow variety as soon a.; ripe, scald and
peel, then to seven pounds of tomatoes
add seven pounds of white sugar and let
them stand over night. Take the tomatoes
out of the sugar, and boil tlie syrup, re
moving the scum. Put in the tomatoes
and boil gently fifteen minutes ; remove
the fruit agaiu and boil until the syrup
thickens. On cooling put the fruit into
jars and j our the syrup ova r it, aud add a
few slices of lemon to each jar, arid you
will have something to please the taste of
the most fastidious.— Germuntown Tel.

BLACK TONGUE IN CATTLE. —Of late
much has been said tl this d adly malady
in southern cuttle. A friend, vvh . know,
its virtues by experience, recommends the I
following recipe as a certain cure :
Mix copperas with the juice of sour or
anges, and bathe the tongue with a sponge i
or rag, three or four times a day. \\ ( . \
should suppose that in the absence of sour
oranges, some other acid might do. The
remedy is simple and .should be tested
To REMOVE SUNBURN.— Milk of ai- j
monds made thus: Take of blanched bitter
almonds half an ounce, soft water half a

DYSPEPSIA,
A S shown by the stileniei.t* of lite Board of Health of
a"V New York, caused the death of 76 persons out of 6JI
deaths in one week, and 131 deaths by consumption in
duced by dyspepsia. As it is a well attested fact that
dyspepsia is the origin of the differing* of a targe portion
of those who die of consumption, it becomes the duty of
every one to use such precautions against mid remedies
for dyspepsia as science and experience have placed be
fore them, and which have proved to be efficacious. Of
this character is Hit. WII.MAMS' A'N'TI UYSI'EPTW
