bOES tllE MOON AFFECT VEGETATION I
Very many practical furmorswill be prompt
to answer tliis query in the fiffiriimtive.
1'i.Int says that if we would collect grain for
the purpose of immediate sale, we should do
so at the full on lio moon i because, during
ho moon's innie.ise. tho grain augments re
markably in magnitndo but if we won d
collect t ho grain to preserve it, wo should
choose the new moon, or the decline of it.
This maxim may Hnd some feeble support in
tho fact, that, as a general tiling, moro nun
falls during tho increase of tho moon thnn
during its decrease, which may account for
the augmentation of the grain in bulk, or size
of the kernel ; but it nssurodly requires n ro
bust Tnith to suppose that the moon at tho
distance of 240,000 miles from the earth's sur
face, can havo any appreciable elicit upon
the grain, either hi increasing or diminishing
its bulk. The same author also prescribes
tho period of the full moon Tor sowing beans,
and thnt of the new moon for sowing lentils.
There Is also an approximation to some
thing like an establisno.l principle observanlo
in the practice of the Agrinoines of Stuth
America in their treatment of Iho two classes
of plan's distinguished by tho production of
... ... - . .. .1. "i i .....
iruu on meir rotns, or un meir urniiciiuH,
we are unable to indicate anything of tho
kuid in tho European Aiihnrisnia Yet it is
the opinion or belief of nil European garden
ers that if trees or vegetables are expected
to flourish with vigor, and attain their highest
dogree of excellence, they must be planted,
grafted and pruned during the increase of the
moon. Hut this opinion, liko most others iu
lating to supposed lunar influence, is wholly
fallacious-. Tho numerous experiments re
cent ly instituted for tho purpose of demon
btratmg tho erroucousness of this belief, have
proved most irrel'i agably that the increase or
decrease of this satellite has, and necessarily
can have, no appreciable ellect upon tho phe
nomena of vegetable life or developemeut.
Many of the maxims relating to supposed
lunar influence, are substantiated by no sup
porting arguments or physical ionsons ; they
exist in the form of simple prejudices, yet are
acted upon by thoso who'indulge them, with
' the same unwavering faith and confidence in
their verity, as though they wero susceptible
of the clearest and most positive proof. There
is scarcely a single detail embraced in the
wido routine of agricultural enterprise and
effort; into which this superstitious prcsump
t on of lunar power does not moro or less
extensively intertwine itsetl. in boiiio re
, f poets, it is perfectly harmless ; in others, its
effects are more momentous, and positively
detrimental to the pecuniary interests and
well-being or those by wnom it is indulged.

ORCHARDS. PLANTING AND MANAGING
The easiest way to manage an orchard is
to havo it the cultivated Jietd the place to
raise the potatoes and corn and vines. It
should be on good land, accessible from the
house readily, not hilly, and so Fituntcd that
it might be easily overlooked. If trees are
set on good land, they will make a handsome
growth without having so much good earth
carted about them. An orchard near at hand
will be better protected from vagrant ani
mals, four-legged and two-legged. If you
are to be robbed, it is desirable to sec how it
is done 1
Every voar thousands of trees arcs thrown
away by being stuck down in grass land.
When are people all to know, that such an
expenditure is the sheerest folly? Suppose
the trees are dng around. Soon the grass
gels up again ; it is difficult to get round to
the trees, nnd they come to the general stand
still. Hut supposo they do just live, and per
haps grow an inch or two 1 A tree had bet
ter bo dead than drag out a sickly existence.
You want new shoots of the real thrifty color
to burst out with unmistakable energy.
I wish that all your readers could see my
neighbor Ooodnmn's orchard in autumn";
trees all in straight, handsome rows ; thrifty
crops growing among them, and a team go
ing to market with tho abundance which
seems to havo no end. Cor. N. E. Farmer.
TAR, & REMEDY t Oil HORSE D1STEMI'I:R.
Thomas YV. Ladji, of Smithfield, .Teffer
son county, Ohio, writes the Ohio Farmer
that ho has found a remedy nnd cure for "dis
temper" in horses, lie says :
"Having three colts sick' with this disease,
an experienced farmer told me to use tar, ami
he thought that the sick colts would soon re
cover, and that thoso who had not taken the
disease would not have it at ull, or but light
ly. I followed his direction, to my entire
satisfaction. I gave the colts morning and
evening, as much as 1 could readily get into
their mouths with a paddle. After a few np
lications, the sick ones commenced running
at the nose, their appetites returned, and in a
tihort time they had entirely regained what
they had lost from disease. The others never
took it to my knowledge. Home prefer mix
ing fish-oil with the tar, but 1 used it alone,
and I believe it to be entirely sufficient, if the
article be good, pure tar. 1 would havo no
faith at all in the coal tar, now in use in some
places."
Stra wbkriues, should be thoroughly clean,
cd of weeds, and some short grass, clean
straw, or somo other material, be placed about
tho plants as soon as they have thrown up
their flower spikes. This will help to keep
a uniform moisture about tho roots, nud the
fruit from grit and dirt and heavy rains.
Except where wanted to form young plants,
the runners should be kept cut off, as they
weaken the energy of the plant. To secure
heavycropsofstrawberries.it is indespema
bly necessasy to supply them with plenty of
water of liquid manure if obtainable, while
fruiting.
Carbaors The value of cajjbngo fcr
feeding, especially dairy stock, is probably
greater than is usually supposed. 'J he field
cultivation of this plant is much on the in
crease among tho farmers of (J rent liritain.
The amount of nutriment matter which is
capable of being raised from an acre of land
under cabbage is, comparatively with most
rthor crops, very large, and with un extended
knowledge of this fact, the cultivation of it
will be probably much extended. The land
renuires to b rich, deep, and somewhat
moist. The rows should be nt least 30 inches j
apart, and the plants not less thnn 21 or 2
inches. The two best varieties for Held cut
ti vat ion are the lrunihcad and tho York.
Improved Way ( Making Whkat Uhkad.
The I'ttiU correspondent of tho Cummer'
cial Advertiser speaks of-a plan invented by
a Linker of that city to reduce the cost of
bread, lie puts in one part of rice to five of
wheat flour, and the economy effected reaches
the very considerable figure of one sou in the
two pound loaf. The government has had
the bread examined by competent persons,
und has authorized the tale of it, at a less
rate than fixed by tho police. The demand
is such thut the buker cannot supply it.
Neither the nutriment nor the taste of tho
bread would appear to be affected by tl.o
presonce of the new ingredient.

To Professor Holi-owat,
Sir, It is not my wish to hecome notorlowa, nelthe
islhis lettet written lor the mere sake of writing, but to
any. that your Ointment cured me of one of the most
dreadiul curumeons diseases Unit flesh is heir to, nud
which wns considered bvall who knew me, to be entirely
beyond the reach of medicine. For nine yenrs 1 was
atllieted with one of the most pa infill and troublesome
sore legs that evel fell to Hie lot of man j and niter trying
every medicine 1 had ever heard of. I resigned in despair
all hope of being cured : but a friend brought me a couple
of larire nets ol vour Ointment, which caused the s ties on
my legs to heal, and I entirely regained my health to my
ngreeuble surprise and delight, und to the ustoiiiKlinient
oi my iricuos,

After a careful examination of your "Amer

pressing my entire approval of the selection ond

slatids in need of a correct system of pleading,
adapted to our habits of Lin-inc, and the practice
of the courts. Vour forma of declarations being,
to a great extent, founded on the acts of assembly
will heal aving of labor to the pleader, ond con
duce to safetv and brevity in our pleadings.
It should be in the hands of every practising
lawyer in our state.

W. McCaiitt, Esq.,
Dear Sir: I received more than n year ago
a copy of "Reed,! Pleaders' Assistant" improved
by Judge Jordan and others. I examined it with
some care soon afterwards, and have had occa
sion to use it several times since. I think it de
cidedly valuable as a lminucl for practising
attorneys in Pennsylvania, und do not hesitate
to recommend it. If it wero generally used it
would increase the accuracy of the profession in
matters w hich ore often very carelessly done.
I am very truly yours, &e.,
J. S. I) LACK.
I also received a copy of the Pleaders' Assist
ant, and have examined it sufl'icienlly to enable
me to concur very heartily in the above commen
dations by the Chief Justice.
