I.OOK AFTER TOUR FRUIT TREES.—
The greatest enemy to young fruit trees
is the cumuli° worm, and the month of
June being the time when their eggs are
deposited int) the tree, from which comes
the larval. There is no better season
than now, says an exchange, to destroy
-them by digging about the roots and fol
lowing them into the_ vices through the
bark. Timely attention will -save the
thrifty young knit trees, an important
item of interest to the farmer and nurse
r} man. ,

EXCURSION TO MAUCH CHUNK.
Tits: excursion to Manch Chunk on
S iturday last, nfuler the auspices of the
31 E. ChUrches at Wyalusing and Camp—,
town, was a complete success. Nearly 600
men, women . and children participated.
The day was a beautiful one, the whole
party were in the belt of spirits, and the,
giunlearien Who had charge of the - affair
were in every way qualified to supervise
and direct it. The car room W.4s ample ;
the tram on time; the train bands courte
ous and obliging; the scenery along the
whole roato the most beilittful to be
found in the whole world and the moat
varied; the Get mania and Leßaysville
bands discoursed the sweetest of music,
and the viands packed in numberless bag-,
kets' were delicious, and—partaken of at
the head, of , picturesque and beautiful
Glen ( Moka--;satisfying--very.
The excursionists arrived at Glen 0n0 ..a

o'clock viewing its beauties, partaking of
Ainner, etc.,; when they again took the
ears for Mauch Chunk, where they arrived
at '2:3t), and disemb al king, marched thro'
Mauch ('hunk, by the beautiful grounds
surrounding the residence of the lat Alon.
AsA PACKER, to the " Switchback "
depot. Here they took seats •in the
neat little ears for a trip over' the famous
Switchback railroad—a trip whialt, to be
appreciate.!. must-.lenrade by one's owu
self. .:Co pen can describe it, and ours
will not make the attempt.- At 6:30 r.
M. the happy party were homeward bound
and at
. 11:30 the train swept around the
curve at East Towanda, and the nuusten
joyable excursion of the season had pass
ed—not an accident of any kind having
incurred to rn'ar its full enjoyment.
While all of the gentlemen who had the
affair in charge are entitled to great praise
for its success, to the ontifing efforts of
Mr. KINTNER, of . Wjallniiig, is that suc
cess largely attributable. The represen
tative of this paper desires to thank Mr.
J. DARR CRANDIAR, of r the Mauch Chunk
Democrat, and gentlemen connected with
the Carbon .Demecrat, fo \ r courtesies ex
tendedwhilst be tarried in the "Switzer
