This id a very important suljoet to all who are engaged in the cultivation of trait ftntl ornamental trerft, and, indent, to svll who are following the pursuit of agriculture, even if their labors Bre con fined to bat a small lot of land. In a word, if only a few shrubs or bushes are to be planted out in a village lot, a small garden to be kept as a source from which to produce the vegetables and small fruits necessary for family consumption, or a farm of large or small dimensions to be cultivated in varied crops, mulch ing is an operation of great practical value. In our brief treatment or this subject we will mention in the outset the objects to bo attained by mulching, which are twofold, viz. : To preserve a uniform degree of moisture in the soil during summer, and protect the roots of plants from severe frosts during wirf- ter. These conditions are obviously im portant to vegetation, aud they can be very efficiently secured by covering the surface with a stratum of porous mater ials, such as tnn bark, charcoal dust, leaves or strawy manure, which will pre vent the surface soil from becoming com pact or hard, aud, at the sanio time, assist in maintaining a uniformity in its mechanical texture favorable to the re tention of moisture. Air is the best non conductor, and bodies are represented as good or bad conductors, just as they ore solid or porous. Iron is a better con ductor than wood, granite stone a better conductor than brick, hard pressed soil is a better conductor than soil that is loose and porous. A hard trodden path is warmer in summer and colder in win ter than the cultivated ground alongside of it. When the soil particles are in pressed contact, the condition is favor able to rapid conduction. Summer winds passing over Buch a surface carry oft' the moisture which the heat evaporates, the surface is speedily parched dry, and vegetation languishes. When tho sur face is covered with a mulch of such porous materials as those enumerated, it .in effect secures a stratum nf air in r. pose between the soil and the causes of radiation and evaporation. In the case of recently planted trees, the preserva tion of a uniform degree of moisture in the soil surrounding their roots is a great point toward their successful growth; and, other things being equal, they will languish or flourish in proportion as this condition of uniform moisture is secure. Although mulching is a very simple operation, yet serious losses have occur red from its misapplication. It is often the case that trees are destroyed from too heavy an application of mulching material, such as grass, manure and tan bark. Before applying the mulch to a reoently planted tree, if in spring, shape the soil around it in basin form, extend ing the rim beyond the extremities of the roots; by this configuration of sur face rains will be retained, and it requir ed, artificial waterings can be applied to best advantage. With reference to fall planting, the process should be reversed, and a Blight mound formed toward the stem of the plant, so aa to throw off the heavy rains of water. Of course such mound should be removed before the following summer. As already remarked, the principal use of winter mulching is to prevent frost from reaching the roots . The best material for this purpose is undoubtedly charcoal dust. When manure is used. it should not be thrown close un to the stem of the plant, otherwise it might prove a narbor for ground mice, which in rough ground or under a coarse cover ing are sometimes very destructive by eating the bark of young trees. When they are troublesome the precaution should be taken to trample firmly over the roots and around the stem after heavy snows, and keep the surface clean ana compact. In order to be effectual, it is not neces sary that summer mulchings should be heavy. When sawdust, tanbark or ohar- coal dust is used, a layer of three inches in depth will be quite sufficient. Grass cut from lawns is very suitable, but a mere sprinkling only should be applied 1 at a time, rmck coatmes promote f an- goid growths, which frequently destroy trees. Fruit or ornamental trees that have been transplanted will rarelv be much benefited by mulching after the nrst year b growth. The advantages of mulching to grow ing vegetables are equally important. Cabbages, potatoes, peas, onionB and oiner crops will tnus be enabled to main tain growth during the dryest weather. This covering is not intended to super sede stirring the soil, but when the plants become so far advanced in growth as to be beyond the hoe and plough, mulch iug may be applied, and those who give 'k i ! 11 . in it iiur inm on tueir crops in a ary sea son will not require further promptings 10 repeat tne practice, jjet those who, heretofore, have not practiced mulching. K'ive it a fair trial, and experince for .'uemjelves the great benefits to be do- lived from its proper and judicious ap plication. Farm Note. Cabbage furnishes a good article of .1 r a. m . use lor poultry. If you have a sick fruit tree, dig it up itna piant a good one in its place. Thorough drainage, plenty of stable manure, with a heuw ton-ilrHinfr f coal ashes, will be found good treatment lor sons ol a close, heavy texture.

A fanciful genius suggests that it is now time to celebrate the completion of tne nrst cubic mile ox humanity, and gives a calculation to show that the bodies of all mankind, from the first Adam down to the Adams just born, if closely packed without diminution of volume, would exactly fill that space. Here are his figures, which our young mathematicians who have nothing else to ao may verify if they can. According to the orthodox chronology the world has been inhabited about 6,000 years, or 170 generations. Its present population is about fifteen hundred millions ; but this density of population must have beeu slowly reached, since all are descended from an original. Con sequently he takes half the number of the present seven hundred and fifty mil- liens, as the average population of the worm from tne beginning until now. making the aggregate of human bodies during the 170 generations, 127,500 mil lions. Since many die in infancy, and half are women, the average weight of each body is taken as seventy-four pounds. The aggregate weight of all mankind to date must accordingly be 4,212 million tons, or a little more than the weight of a cubic mile of sea water, Since the human body, with the lungs not inflated, is a trifle heavier than sea water, our calculator assumes that his estimated 4,212 million tons of human ity would fill the same space as 4,205 million tons of sea water, or precisely one cubic mile. Taking the samei figures and exercis ing the same freedom in striking avera ges, the mathematically inclined may (lettuce any number of amusing results, For instance, assuming the average length of humanity to be a little under four feet, the bodies of all mankind, liy ing and dead, placed end to end, would just make a bridge from the earth to the BunI Scientijio American, mothers! mothers !
