"I have had some experience in the raising
of plums. -In my former efforts, when I
• let them take care of themselves, my trees
produced nothing but a crop of worms anti
disappointment. But for the last three
years I have succeeded in raising as full and
fine a crop of plums as could be desired.
My treatment was this:
- In the spring, as soon as the blossoms be
gan to fall from the fruit, I prepared a large
sheet-iron on which were placed a few
chips or anything that would burn readily,
and after , they had commenced burning
freely, %withered the blaze down with
graes t which produced a dense smoke.
This I would carry around under the trees,
and perfectly. befog the entire top, every
branch, with smoke... I made this applica
tion of smoke each' evening and morning,
and continued it until about'the first of July.
Fresh grass should be frequently added, eo
as to continue a heavy volume of smoke..
I think the advaitage derived from the
smoke is from the coating which it deposits
upon the fruit, leaves and branches, and
producing .a scent which is offensive to such.
insects as are wont to prey upon the yOung
fruit.-- But whatever The effect of smoke
may be, it has been a successful protection
tothe fruit during my' three years'. eiperi

Excellent results have been 4 produced by
.
fumigating fruit' trees thoroughly with coal
tar, the residuunt of gas works. An old
fashioned frying pen, with a long handle, is
miexcelleritiMplement for this purpose, as it
enables the operator to move the burning

discipline, *here all previous attempts had
failed. The furaigationshoulCbe applied
in the evening `or early lithe morning, and
should 'be continued aa often as twice :a
week krom,iiie'time blossorn.s 'appear until.
. the fruit has - distinctly ,formed ; say,,for .
four. Weeks. •
So, too, we] have seen the best effects
from the use of' lime upon andabout plum
trees.c., During the whole period of , eft
) t
rescence, and until the fruit has attained
the size of a large pea, the ground under
the trees and the foliage upon them should
be sprinkled with lime. The best way to
reach the foliage is to get a light pole of suf
ficient length to reach the top, at the small
end of, the pole tie $ bag made of any:cloth
through which the lime will readily sift out.
This bag shonldcontain a quart or two of
lime. i While tire dew is on the leaves they
may; readily be whitened by shaking the
pole over them so as to.let the lime out of
the bag. When the lime happens to be
washed off by' rains, it should be renewed
next day. By this process we have seen
trees that had remained fruitless for succes
sive years brought into full bearing and
kept there. [Ens. GAZETTE. -

HAY.--More than the average crop will
be realized. In Pennsylvania, New York,
Indiana, Ohio, New Jersey, Delaware, and
Maryland the yield is very large and of ex
cellent quality.
COTTON.--The reports about cotton are
very encouraging. Fully an average yield
is expected. In parts of Florida the cater
pillar is doing some damlge.
Suomt--Promises well, but very little was
planted.
Fnurrs—Are almost a total failure, es
pecially in the Middle States. The Peach
crap will not be half what it was last year.
In the extreme . South it looks better. In
New York, Apples look better than almost
anywhere else.
THE POTATO CROP—Is generally large
and good.

Thnashing Grain.
"The best of men are none the worse for
a little watching." This is true of that im
portant class of men, "the thrashers." The
work is generally done by the bushel. Last
year, owing to the anxiety of farmers to
thrash early,.under the idea that the price
of wheat would decline, six and seven cents
a bushel was paid.
Of course ,the thrashers are desirous of
doing the work as rapidly as ossible
this is very well, especially as p the farmer
has to furnish six horses and half a dozen
or so. of men, besides the four horses and
four men that accompany the machine ; but
owing to their anxiety to "hurry up," it is
well to see that the grain is all thrashed out
of the straw, and also that it is separated
from the chaff; and not carried on to the
stack by .the straw-carrier. The "boss
thrasher' is generally a "gentleman of lei
sure." who sees that everything is right:
Would it not be well if the farmer himself,
instead of working harder than any of the
other men, should hire an extra hand and
merely look after things ? High as wages
are, one bushel of wheat saved would pay
fora man that ' could cut bands or throw
sheaves froin the bay , . nearly, if not quite,
as fast and as well as. himself. Of all the
days in the year, thrashing day is the time
for the farmer to see that everything is done
as it should be. This is work enough for
one Tan, which should be the farmer. I

Pickled Tomatoes:—Always use those
Which are thoroughly ripe. The small
round' 'ones are decidedly the best. Do not
prick them, as most recipe books direct.
Let them be in strong brine three or four
days, then put them down in layers in your
jars, mixing with them small onions and
pieces of horse raddish; then pour, on the
vinegar cold, which should be first spiced
as for peppers let there be a spice -bag to
throw into every pot. Cover them care
fully, and set them by in the cellar for a full
month - before - Using.
How to make Tomato .Frga.—Pour boiling ,
water over the tomatoesin order to remove
the skins; then weigh them and place them
in a stone jar. with as much sugar as you
have tomatoes, and let them - stand two days;
then - pour off the syrup, and boil and skim
It until no seism rises. Then pour it over
the tomatoes, and let them stand two days
as before, then boil and skim again. After
the thiatime, they are fit -to dry, if the
'weather is good; if not, let them stand in
the syrup until drying weather. Then place
on large earthern plates or dishes, and put
them in the sun to dry, which will take
about a week, atter which pack them down
in small wooden boxes, with fine white
sugar between each- layer. Tomatoes pre
pared in this manner.will keep for yearn.
Tomato Preserves.—Take the round - yel
low variety as soon as ripe, scald and peel;
then to seven pounds of tomatoes add seven
pounds of white sugar, and let them stand
overnight. Take the tomatoes out of the
sugar, and boil the syrup, removing the
scum. Put in the tomatoes,.and boil gently
fifteen or twenty minutes; remove the fruit
again and boil until the syrup thickens. On
cooling put the fruit into jars and pour the
syrup over it, and add a few slices of lemon
to each jar, and you will have something to
please the taste of the most fastidious.

The Crops.
Full details by telegraph from all parts of
the country, of the condition of the crops,l
are ; published. On the whole these reports
are cheerful. ' The following facts are de
duced
- Weir.—This crop is larger than. last
year in West Virginia; Indiana, Ohio, Mis
souri, Kansas. Colorado, Utah, Montana,.
Wisconsin,'Minnesota, New
York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maine,
Massachusetts, Connecticut and New Hamp
shire, and the quality is regarded as excel
lent. In Georgia, South Carolina, Alabania
and Texas the reports are not so rood, the
yield being. indifferent. In Louisiana,
A,rkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Maryland,
Southwestern Virginia, Central Tennessee,
North Carolina, Delaware and Vermont,
the crop has been an average one.
Conic —From all sections of the country
we hear that this crop is very large, and the
finality remarkably. good. The yield this
year will be fully one-third more than last.
This is especially so in the Southern
States.
OATS.—In Kentucky, Tennessee, West
Virginia, Indiana, Missouri, -Kansas, Ohio,
Nebraska, lowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Vermont, New York and Illinois, especially
in the latter States, the yield is large; while
in Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida,
South Carolina and other Southern States it
will not be more than an average. The
rains we have had lately have injured the
crops in New Jersey, Pennsylvania Dela
ware, Maryland and Maine, and the yield
will be less than usual.
BARLEY. —The crop will be an average
one.
