Orrhnrd unit Nursery.
Preimrntions for plnnting uirty 1e ninde
thii montli, mid in nome lntitmlra the
treos may bo net out. The soil nbould
Imve boon prppnrtvl Inst year, but if it
was not, no time should be lost. New
soils rarely need manuring, Imt exhausted
bind munt be renovated. It will be uso
lesi to set out young trees in n stifl', poor
soil, nnd expect them to give n satisfac
tory return; it is true they may live and
bear in time, but they can never make a
healthy growth, or produce good fruit.
See that there nro no low spots in the
orch trd where ice nnd snow mny collect
nnd remniu (hiring the greater part of
the 'winter; trees planted in such places
do not ripen their wood properly, nnd
lire liable to bo injured by early frosts,
nnd the land cannot be cultivated until
Into in the spring.
Pruning may bo done nt any time be
fore vegetation stnrts. ' When large
limbs nro removed take enro not to allow
thein to fall before severing the bark on
the under side of the cut, ns they mny
peel tho bark from the trunk, thus
making n bad wound. Always pare tho
nuts smooth, n Rhnrp knife, cnisrl, or
iha wing-knife may bo used, cover with
melted grafting wax, paint, or anything
which will exclude the nir nnd rain.
The best guido for n novice in fruit
growing is the experience of others in
similar localities, and one about to set
nn orchard can make no better invest
ment than the time nnd money it would
require for him to visit the fruit growers
in n circuit of ten or twenty miles, nnd
learn of the successes nnd failures of
others.
If. one lives near n city or town large

I'l.viiiK lor the Fair.
" I could atalo unfold," says a Tribune
correspondent, how Jones's ram, or
Smith's cow, or Robinson's bull took
that premium, that would make Brown
open his eyes in astonishment. Brown
wondered why his (Jotswolds' fleece was
so raw and harsh after it had been washed
with soap and warm water, but ho did
not dream as he snoozed iu the next pen
upon the straw, that loug before daylight
Toiieu had rubbed his rani's ileeee with
yellow oslier and so gave it a rich color,
a soft greasy feel, nnd a luster that
charmed the judges and took them by ;
fctorm in a moment. Aud he does not ,
know to this day that Smith's cow was i
fed a quart of linseed oil daily a week ;
before tlie milking trial was made and !
her cream measured thirty per cent, of
the milk, nor that her tail was bound tin
every night in hay bauds to make it tluu, ' tust pence and quiotndo now prevail, and ex
uor that her skin was sponged down I tending a welcome to all immigrants, promising
early m ma morning witn a mixture oi i
oow dung and water, which was allowed
la dry upon it and give it the rich orange
color that was so much admired by every
body. Nor did ho see the cow's owner
umidpnperiiig her horns and polishing
them with beeswax, and carefully going
over her switch with a feather aud a bot
tle of ink. And in this way the inno
cent man would have found that the pre
miums were filched from poor but honest
exhibitors who relied on merit only, and
that bv a course of such breeding the
reputation of certain pedigree stock was
built up; and then lie might have re
peated with the poot, truly "things aro
not what they seem."
Feeding Ileus.
Hens will lay in cold weather if sup
plied with a greater variety of food. I
keep thirty hens and three roosters. I
do not house them well, and for three
months of winter tho suii does not shine
ou their house, it being under a lull
facing north, and altogether n very
cheerless place. I feed corn, buckwheat,
cabbage, potatoes, and all waste, vegeta
bles from tho table; keep them supplied
wilh a box of water, and a box of sand
to dust in, also coal ashes. Last winter
I bought twenty pounds of bone from
the meat market and broke up a little
every day. The monthly result (in eggs
by the dozen) is as follows for the year
ending Dec. 1, 1874: December, 3 2-12;
January, 11; rebruary, 8 10-12; March,

ber, 6-12 total, 233 10-12 dozen. Ialso
used nine of the hens to raiso 101 chick

fowls. Credit by sale of eggs and chick'

A Healthy Farmers' Club.
Tlie Elmira (X. Y.) Farmers' Club,
though a local institution, has attracted
no little attention abroad by the practi
cal wisdom of its debates and the sound
caution of its conclusions. It in now
in the Bixtli year of its usefulness, and
the influence it exej-ts is obvious in the
improved farming of it section. Their
present building was erected several
venrs since, at a cost of $4,000 or &5.000.
The second story forms a spacious hall
for their discussions, with an ample re
cess for the library, which contains some
2,000 volumes. The membership num
bers over 200 earnest, practical farmers,
soino of then from Pennsylvania, who
meet weelc'v, through most of the year,
to discuss all topics interesting to farm
er i each man contributing the best
paints iu his own experience to illustrate
or to resolve the various questions that
arise. While I sat listening to the edi
fying remarks of different members, says
a correspondent, it seeme J to me, from
the sound and sensible views of some,
from the new and striking thoughts ad
vanced by others, and from the general
tone of the discussion, that these men,
whilo intent on solving practical ques
tions in their business, were also train
ing and developing their own higher
faculties, and that the tendency of such
clubs is clearly to make not only better
farmers but more efficient and accom
plished men.

When a child's ear becomes painful,
as it so often does, everything should be
done to soothe it, and all Btrong irritating
applications should be avoided. Pieces
oi liot onion or fifc Bhould not be put in;
but warm flannels should bo applied,
with poppy-fonientation, if the pain does
not soon subside. How much children
suffer from their ears unpitied because
unknown it would probably wring the
hearts of those who love them, suddenly
to discover. It is often very hard, even
for medical men, to ascertain that the
cause of a young child's distress is seated
in the ear, 'and frequently a sudden dis-
cnuxge iium u, j the Nevada Stateprison receives twenty
first reveals the secret of a mysterious . , . . . . '
attack which has really been au inflam-
... . mi i i
mation oi tne arum, xne watcmuiness i
of a parent, however, would probably
suffice to detect the cause of suffering, if
directed to this point, as well as to
others. If children cry habitually when
their ears are washed, that should not be
neglected; there is, most likely, some
cause for pain. Many membranes are
destroyed from discharges which take
place "during "teething." Whenever
there is a discharge of matter from the
ear, it would be right to pour in tepid
water night and morning, and so at least
to try and keep it clean.
Once a careless man went to the oellar
and stuck a candle in what he thought
wai a keg of black sand. Ho sat near

Tlie Rocky Mountain Sleep.
Among the many different species of

ture M the llocky mountain sheep, or
big hors, as they ore sometimes called.

any animal among the deer kiml.
The horns of tho male are sometimes
of enormous size. I have seen them
eight inches in diameter at tho largest
part, and weighing sixtaon pounds.
Those of the female are email and sharp,
resembling the horns of - the goat ; in
fact, but for tho bonis aniT line silky wool
at the roots of the hair,' they might
readily be mistaken for dee r. They feed
upon the short nutritious grass which
grows upon tho treeless rii'ges nnd ra
vines along the snowy range, and when
fat weigh from one to two hundred
ronuds. The flesh is very much like
that of the deer, but juicier and of supe-
tint flavor. I
They are almost constantly on the
move, ranging- from one mountain to nu- , tnr'e of which , B (eorct. About the only ex.

iu one drove, but generally from two or
three to a dozen. When pursued they
make a break for tho highest point of
rocks in sight, where they stand looking
curiously at the hunter as he slowly
picks Inn way upward to get within
shooting distance.
When that lies boon gained, however,
the sheep hnve disappeared ; nor does
the tired sportsman get another glimpse
of his game until he has reached tho
cliff ho has justAlet, where they may be
seen standing on some point higher up
on the mountain, wd still beyond rifle
shot. Should the lt.unter have persever
nuce nnd plenty of muscle, he will prob
ably follow the'ra to flie highest pinnacle
of "the range to find nt lust that liis
climbing has been in vain, nnd that the
game he has been following so faithfully
and hopefully have in;T3teriously vanish
ed from his Bight.
The only successful method of hunting
the mountain sheep is to get above them,
unseen, and, if possible get a hhot be
fore being discovered. In this way the
herd becomes confused, uot knowing
which way to run, and sometimes four or
live may 'bo killed before they recover
themselves. Once started, however,
Jmrsuit is useless. Throwing back their
leads they throw themselves into space
as if shot from a cannon, and iu a few
minutes are miles away, taking leaps of
twenty or thirty feet, nnd hardly ever
making a mishap, however rapid and
headlong their flight.

healtn and physique, until tney nave be
come literally a race of invalids. How
sad it is to look around us and compare
the frail and effeminate looking lady of
to-day with the hale, hearty and buxom
ladies of days gone by. lo ail sucn tne
late discovery of Dr. Walker, of Cali
fornia, which ia known as Vinegar Bit
ters, is a priceless boun indeed. For this
class of diseases it is certain and safe,
and any lady, old or young, can take it
with entire confidence in the result, and
thus avoid wliat to thousands is a stum
bling block never overcome, viz. a con
sultation with a family physician. 'Tis
true there may be cases of years' stand
ing that will necessitate more powerful
treatment, but in nine cases out of ten
this remedy will reach the disease, aud
after a little time effect a cure. The
number of ladies cured by it are num-
bered by thousands, and are scattered

eminent phytucians on examining the Elastic

without torture, will make them the only trus

A healthy liver secretes each day about two
nd a-half pounds of bile, which contain a
great amount of waste material taken from the
blood. When the liver becomes torpid or con
gested, it fails to eliminate this vast amount of
noxious substance, which, therefore, remains
to poison tho blood, and be conveyed to every
part of the system. What mnst be the condi
tion of the blood when it Is receiving and re
taining each day two and a-half pounds of poi
son ? Nature tries to work off this poison
through other channels and organs the kid
neys, lungs, skin, etc. i but these organs be
come overtaxed in performing this labor, in
aOdiiin to their natural functions, and cannot
long withstand the pressure, but become vari
ously diseased.
Tlie brain, which is the great electrical center
of all vitality, is unduly stimulated by the un
healthy blood which passes to it from the
heart, and it fails to perform its office health
fully. Hence the symptoms of bile poisoning,
which are dullness, headache, incapacity to
keep tho mind ou any subject, impairment of
memory, dizzy, sleepy, or nervous feeling,
gloomy forebodings and irritability of temper.
The blood itself being diseased, as it forms tho
sweat upon the surface of the skin, is so irri
tating and poisonous that it produces discolored
brown Bpots, pimples, blotches and other erup
tions, sores, boils, carbunclos and scrofulous
tumors. The Btomach, bowels, and other
organs spoken of, cannot escape becoming
affected sooner or later, and costivoness, piles,
dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrlirt'S, female weakness,
and many other forms of chronic disease, are
among the necessary results. Ab a remedy for
an tnese niauiiestations or diseaso, JJr. lierce s
