This question is largely one of circumstances. If one has more land than money, it may be best not to set bo near.

Oxen and largo cattle have proved very fatal to young trees when 1 turned into the orchard. Allowing trees ' to overbear and break themselves down is a mistake.

If tho brnnehes bo too thick it will bo of advantage to cut some of them out from a few vines where a limited amount of early fruit shall be desired. Immediately after a rain, or as soon as tho ground will permit, is tho proper time to cultivate tho soil, as the grass will then be more easily destroyed by the sun's rays when thrown up, while the stirring of the soil for a few inches will prevent I loss of moisture after dry weather snail nt;ain set in. j Insects must not be forgotten.

Plant lice on outside vegetation pass the winter as little dark", oblong eggs, usually fastened to the buds. With the warm days of spring these eggs hatch, nnd so rapidly do tho lice increase that soon they nro counted by millions. Another characteristic feature of plant lice is their sudden disappearance.

During a long storm persons who are well versed in weather lore aro often heard to console themselves with the pre diction that there will be a change of weather when tho moon chuuges. Nasmyth and Carpenter characterize as a popular error in its most absurd form this belief that the gradual turning of tho moon's face toward nnd away from the sun could, at certain points, upset tho existiug condition of our atmosphere, generate clouds and pour down ruin. In Lngland (and the same may be said of America) tho weather changes about J ....... l .1 : . .. i I every three days, and there is a change of tne moon every seven days, so that many coincidences must occur. Those who be lieve that "the moon rules the weather" al wavs credit such coincidences to lunar influence. But the theory is untenable I uuicbs ii applies 10 evcryca.se, anil uuiess the same effect is always produced by the same cause.

Brief Snake Stories. A black snake five and a half feet long was found in bed with the three children of Joseph Thompson, at ltoscommon, Mich. Paddy Williams, of Chester, (la., drank a quart of whisky and saved his life after being bitten by a copperhead. In lifting one of her pillows, Mrs. Emma Gephart, of Tuscola, 111., who was about to retire, disturbed a large blue racer. When a large spotted snake was killed by Joseph Muucie, of St. Clair township, 111., and opened, two live toads hopped from its ttumuch. A copperhead snake bit David Smith. nf Iti&inrr tsnn f(t imiin t) lninrl unrl M me arm swelled to the size of a man s thigh, but prompt remedies saved his life. j A rattlesnake recently killed by F.

Fans of point d'esprit net are much in favor; they don't give a particlo of air, but they look well. The sailor lint is being decidedly worn this season for all, and more, too, than it is fa-hinnably worth. liia'-elets are never worn in pairs. In fact, it is the fashion to manacle only tho right arm at present. Large lockets from a band of black I velvet about the feminino neck nro un doubtedly fashionable.

Sailor hats are still worn on almost all possible occasions, their principal rivals iicing tho broad Leghorn Hals. To judge from the models now in prep aration, wraps will be quite as diversi fied next season as they were last. Ked blouses of soft silk are worn with skirts of white and red striped flannel by Knglish rrirls for bontinir dresses. r- The newest freak of fashion is to have the dress, hat, gloves, boots anil stock ings of tho same color as the lady's hair. A string of gold beads around the throat is worn with low summer dresses. It has a most innocently infantile effect. The leg-of-mutton sleeve, it appears, is simply the result of a conspiracy among fashionable dressmakers to drive out tho jerseys. Sailor collars, combined with a fichu or scarf ends, are made of palo blue or scarlet silk, and worn with white wool or China silk dresses. Cream-colored camel's hair, with fine gold passementerie on vest, collar and cuffs, and gold buttons, make an exqui site driving jacket. Presses are worn longer than ever, nearly touching the ground, and tho steels which are used to expand them are smaller than of life. White muslin vests or plastrons are made very full in puffs across the chest, separated by tucks, through which nar row ribbons are drawn. Shawl-shaed rovers collars, all in one piece and rounded on the sides, are worn with open-throated dresses instead of the notched coat collars of last year.

Swords and Revolvers. Although as far back as the civil war in the tinted btutes it was proved beyond doubt that cavalry armed with swords had not the re motest chance of success against those armed with revolvers, and although al most every nation in Europe arms its cavalry with the latter weapon, tho English Wur Office, witheven more than it's uuiil iunptitu.de and obstinacy.refuses . ' . to furnish our cavalry with this weapon. The revolver is a weapon requiring much practice to be of value, but in the hands of one who has mustered its use it is a terrible weapon. A cowboy of New Mexico is not regarded as a good shot except when riding at full speed along a line of telegraph poles he can put a ball into euch as he passes it; and the result is that although the Indians consider themselves more than a match for tho regular cavalry, they w ill fly before a parly of cowboys, even if they outnumber them many times, while a hundred cow boys would rightly consider themselves as a match for a whole regiment of regu lar cavalry. The sword was an admirable weapon iu the old -days, but a soldier armed with only a sword might be as well ununited altogether were he to meet one armed with a revolver who was an adept iu its use Iandon Staiulard.

The dam will ronsist of a solid wall of concrete, from hillside to hillside. It will be 700 feet long, 170 feet high, 175 feet thick at tho base, and 20 feet thick at the top.

The problem of protection against yellow fever by inoculation seems in fair way to solution by the Brazilian doctor, Freire, who has been seven years At work on the subject. According to a recent account, tho number of persons already inoculated is 0,524. There have died from yellow fever in Bio do Janeiro, between January, 1885, and September, 1S80, 1,075 persons, of whom eight hna been inoculated (in 1884, the method being then imperfect.) This gives a mortality of about 1 per 1,000 for the in oculated, nnd one per cent, for the un inoculated. Itustless iron is being manufactured in New Y'ork by a new process which, it is claimed, converts the surface of the metal into magnetic oxide of iron. This is done by subjecting it successively to the action of highly heated nir and carbonic oxide gas from coal tires. The hot air converts the metallic surface into red oxido of iron, which is then reduced to black or magnetic oxido by tho gas. This renders it rust-proof when exposed to the air or to fresh or salt wnter. The process can be applied with most satisfac tory results to water pipes and architec tural work. A forgotten chemical product, brought out by Dodc more than twenty years ago, is now preserved in a Paris museum. It is a transparent reflector, in which tho image of an object niny bo viewed as in a mirror, or through which the object itself may be seen ns through, common glass. It is simply a piece of gloss cov ered with a thin layer of platinum. It was prepared by combining a mixturo of plntinic chloride and essence of lavender and borate nnd oxide of lead, spreading the whole on the glass with a fine brush, mid then baking in a muffle at a low red heat. This old discovery ought to servo some useful purpose. Prof. A. O. Bourne writes to Xtture regarding the souse of tasto or smell in leeches. While in India ho picked up with his fingers a stone from the soft, muddy bottom of a shallow, torpid stream, lieturning to tho samo spot a few minutes later, he noticed a number of leeches swimming near the spot. On the following day, suspecting that they had "smelt" or "tasted" his hand in tho water, he first stirred tho surface of tho mud with a stick, but no leeches np- fieared; nfter tho water was clear again le washed his hands in the water with out disturbing the mud, and very soon a number of leeches caims up nnd swam about. The soft mud in which they live is about a foot deep, and although tho disturbance of tho surface mud with a stick was not sufficient to bring them out, the "smell" or "taste" of his hands seems to h ive spread down and extended over an area of more than a yard. Last year in tho hill country ho had an oppor tunity of observing the very keen sccut of the land leeches, which will go to a man or horse from tho banks of either side or even a wide road.

The crceiiiogof glaciers is an established fact in physical history, and this one is said to be a living one, advanc ing at the rate of liftarn inches a year, but it encroaches no further on the sea, and never advances beyond its present boundary, because the tenierature of the water is so much warmer than the ice, that as it crawls into the sea it perpetu ally melts below and breaks off above. The breaking and falling of the ice is ac companied by detonating niports, and is an interesting sight to witaiess.
