PAUld AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS We invite communicattontfromaUpernoniiwIioare tntermtrit in matter! property belonging to tliit department. t Pruning Trees, The controversy concerning the right time of pruning fruit trees appears to be endless, although a little observation would obviate all centrovorsy. Lot any one cut off a branch of a maplojin late winter or early spring, and he will sco a great and continvus flow of sap before the buds buret, which will saturate the bark all down the Hide of the tree below the cut branch. What occurs in the maple occurs, though in a less degree, . in other trees, and the main branches and stems of many a great tree have a blackened and dead side under the wound made by cutting off a consider able branch. If only twigs are cut off, the consequences are, of course, scarcely pro coptible. On the other hand, if a branch of a maple is cut off after the buds have expanded, there is no flow of sap, and the wound is rapidly encircled by a new growth of bark, which gradually extends till in two or three years it is covered over, and this will occur in all other healthy trees pruned at the same time. Fall pruning after the year's growth is over does not give the wounds an opportunity of healing before the frost, which cannot be good for them, and pruning in Winter is even more liable to same objection. Pruning in early Spring is probably worst of all ; but pruning in May, when the vital powers are in the greatest activity to heal wounds, and the whole growth of the year 1b ahead, is evi dently the best time. The next best time is July just before 'the second growth. At either of these seasons, alst, it is more obvious what should be cut. There should never have been any controversy as to the liest time of pruning, and there never would have been, but that gardeners have nothing else to do in Winter and early Spring, and a great deal to do in May and July. Tbey had better, however, do nothing in Winter, iharj spoil trees. Preserving Eggs. There seems to bo a great diversity of opinion about packing eggs for preserva tion. As we have given the mode of several readets who think their manners tho best, wo clip the following from the New York Dbserver of a recent date, giving its experi ence: "The most convenient and satisfacto ry way to keep eggs fresh that we have ev er tried, is to punch numerous holes in a tin pail, fill it with fresh eggs, lower the pail with tho eggs into a kettle of melted tallow which is as hot as can be without burning one's flngor when thrust into the liquid ; then lift the pail out quickly, and tho melt ed tallow will flow out, leaving a thin coat ing over every egg. Lot the eggs be remov ed as soon as possible from the pail, and be placed on the ends in a keg or barrel, which should be kept in a cool cellar until wanted for use. We have kept eggs in this man ner more than six months, so fresh that expert judges supposed that they were fresh. As the eggs are so much colder than the melted tallow, a thin pellicle of cold tallow will be formed almost instantly, which will render tho shell impervious to air." Farming as a Business. A man who 1b not smart enough to run a a store, is not smart enough to run a farm. Farmers arc not to be made of what is left after lawyers, doctors, ministers, and mer chants are sorted and picked out. And if a man fails on a farm, it is not very likely ho will Kticeed in a store, for it requires more talent to be a thriving farmer than an aver age merchant. The cause of great failure Is the disproportion between a man's farm and his capital. A farmer's capital is skill, labor, and his money. If he has a little cash, he must have no more land than ho can thoroughly manage by his personal labor. Evrcy acre beyond this is an in oumbraiiou. One acre well worked is more profitable than twenty acres skimmed over. It is this greed of land by farmers that have not the capital to work it that keeps m many poor Small farms are better than large ones, simply because they are better mited to the capital of common farmers. Large farmers with large capitals are bettor than small ones. Fanning is a good busi ness for all men who conduct it on proper jrt-ineipleH, und have a capital according to the size of thoir farms.
