PLANTING Tamts.—The .season for tree plant
ing is now at limb and a few remarks upon
that subject may be useful to those of our
readers who have not had the benefit of expe
rience in this matter.
Selecting the Trees—Recently, at a meeting of
fruit growers, a member remarked that when
he went to a nursery to select trees, he took
those that others rejected, preferring low
branched plants, and those that had made but a
moderate growth, to tall, bare stemmed, and
luxuriant trees, as indicated by a, profusion of
strong young shoots. In doing so, he was only
acting in accordance with the dictates of .expe
rience, and sooner or later, all who plant trees
will arrive at the same conclusion. Especially
might attention be directed to the propriety of
selecting trees of moderate growth ; such trees
will, if healthy, be found to possets a greater
portion of fibrous roots, and conseque n tly su ff er
less from removal. We know an experienced
planter who always prefers yellowish and sickly
looking evergreens when selecting a stock ; a
tree of that kind is almost certain to improve
by being removed, and commence a favorable
growth at once. The growth of the branches
afford a tolerable fair index to the manner of
root growth; a short, stubby growth, indicates
fibrous roots in abundance ; long, rampant
shoots, are the growth of long, wiry roots.
.Dieing up the Treea.—Every one of ordinary
intelligence, must feel convinced that the more
roots they can secure, the better. But there
are many who are perfectly aware of this fact
that seem to ignore it when they set about dig
ging up a tree. Not a year goes round that we
are not called to decide upon the propriety of
sending trees back to the nursery from whence
they came, owing to the extreme mutilation the
roots have received in lifting. We would sooner
trust to the tender mercies of a stump-pulling
maehine,than to the assistants of some nursery
men we know, in the matter of lifting trees for
transplanting. We venture to say that one
half of all the failures in tree planting, may be
fairly blamed to want of careful lifting ; it,
therefore, demands the serious attention of the
purchaser that hie tree be properly lifted, and
carefully transported. When trees are care
fully packed for distant transportation, they
rarely suffer; much more injury attends trees
that-are removed even for a few miles, when the
roots are perfectly exposed for hours to a dry
ing sun and air ; they will suffer more in a
journey of five miles, when thus exposed, than
in a journey of five hundred miles if carefully
packed.
Preparing the holes.—This will depend some
what upon the nature of the soil. If a clay
subsoil, the hole should be made wide, rather
than deep. Deep holes in undrained clays
only form basins to hold water, and to prepare
them for culture, draining and subsoiling are
indispensable preliminaries. In gravelly, or
Well drained soils, the holes should be dug out
at least eighteen inches in depth, the top soil
and subsoil thrown out at opposite sides, filling
again with equal mixture of both, until proper
height is galited for setting the plant. To place
immediately around the roots, a prepared cora
most of leaf mould, rotted manure and sandy
soil, about a bushel to each tree, will form an
admirable rooting medium- '
this should be well
pulverized, and be rather dry than otherwise,
'when used.
Setting the trees.—Deep planting and shallow
planting, are the injurious extremes in setting
trees: The simple and incontrovertible rule
to ea the plant so that the point from whence
the stem and roots proceed in opposite direc
tions, will be about. an inch below the level of
the surface of the ground_ The natural growth
of the roots of different trees will form a guide
to• their arrangement. The pine and fir tribes,
and such evergreen shrubs as Rhododendrons
and salmis, and such deciduous plants as the
maple, magnolia, quince, Sze., root more on the
surface thain the pear, oak, and hickory, 'and
we are convinced that there is nothing to be
gained by attempting to confine the roots of
the latter to the same conditions as those natu
rally assumed try the former.
Pruning.—lt is next to impracticable, in re
moving a tree, to secure the whole of the roots;
the most careful lifting, indeed, only secures
comparatively a small portion of those most es
sential fibres that transmit nourishment to the
plant. Some planters (or rather, we should
say,some writers, as no experienced planter will
so reason,) argue, that since roots are depend
ent upon leaves for their formation, therefore,
the more branches and leaves on the plant, the
more likelihood of success. But such is the
effect of evaporation by the leaves, that with
out active roots they speedily extract all the
sap in the plant, which, of course, as speedily
dies. The branches must be reduced in a ratio
corresponding with that of the deficiency of
Boots, and, inasmuch as it is not possible to
ascertain precisely the amount of the latter, it
ie well to endeavor to give the roots the pre
ponderance, by pruning the branches pretty
severely.
Staking —We prefer to reduce the top of the
tree, so as to prevent any danger from sway
ing, rather than be under the necessity of
having recourse to stakes. Even with ever
greens, we prune them in severely, not only on
this account, but also to balance the roots, as
stated in a previous paragraph. When some
method of support is essentially necessary,
wires attached to the tree, and secured to pegs
drove in the ground, is a more effectual secu
rity than upright stakes, which frequently chafe
and injure the bark; of course, a small piece
of cloth, leather, or something similar, should
be inserted between the tree and the wire.
Xulching.—Not the least important item in
future treatment is that of mulching. To secure
a continual supply of moisture around the
roots, even during the dryest weather, is a great
point towards success.
This is accomplished by preparing will
boles, and breaking up the soil to a good depth,
so as to get a supply of moisture in it, and
then, by mulching on the surface, it is retained
for the benefit of the roots, instead of being
lost though surface evapor4tion. A covering
of any loose material effects this very desirable
object, and in lieu of this, the surface of the
ground should be kept loose and open; the
loos/soil having its pores filled with air, be
comes an interposing medium which protects
the under stratum from the drying effects of
arid breezes.
We will close these brief remarks by obser
ving, that nothing is gained by planting before
the boil is in a fit condition. Let the ground
be dry and mellow, even if it should be the
middle of this month before it takes place; we
refer to deciduous trees_ In the removal of
evergreens, the middle of May is better than
the middle of April ; and our greatest success
for the-past six years in this locality, has been
with evergreens set out the first week in June.
Of five hundred evergreens of var i ous k i n d s,
set out on one estate during the first eight
days of June, 1858, we can still count four
hundred and ninety-seven that have more than
doubled their height since that time ; we allude
to theie figures for the parpose of showing that
our advice is founded on practice, rather than
mere theoretical reasoning which is not alway s
reliable.—Farmer and Gardener.
PEARS ON Qouccu.—Pears grafted on Quince,
require deep rich soil. Many failures have oc
stirred, and much disappointment has been
occasioned by planting dwarf pear trees, in the
abeence of a proper knowledge as to the treat
ment they demand.
Pear culture on this system is not for those
who plant' a . tree as they do a gate-post, and
who look upon the after treatment of both in
the same light, : leave them until they de
cay, and then plant another, grumbling all the
while about the absurdity of this mode of rai
aingpdars_ When planting the trees, place some
light soil around the roots tome them a start.
Cover the whole of the 'Quince root and about
an inch of the pear stern with soil. The quince
Al throw out roots freely from any portion of
the covered surfacce, if healthy; therefore deep
planting, so long as the soil is in proper eon-
ditien, is not in this *se injurious. ' If the
roots are stumpy, and destitute of fibres, cut
several upward slips on varigus parts of their
surfaces, to encourage the emission of roots.—

Read the following from the New York Courier:
ZEORKOUS BUSINESS FOR ONE NEW YORK MERCHANT,—
We are happy to inform our fellow-citizens that there is
one place in our city where the physician, apothecary.
and country merchant, can go and purchase pure Wines
and Liquors, as pure as imported, and of the best quality.
We do not intend to give an elaborate description of this
merchant's extensive business, although it will well re.
pay any stranger or citizen to visit linoteno Wotrs's
extensive warehouse, Nos. 18, 20 and 22, Beaver street,
and Nos 17, 19 and 21, Marketfield street. His stock of
Schnapps on hand ready for shipment could not have
been less than thirty thousand cases; the Brandy, some
ten thousand cases—Vintages of 1838 to 1838; and ten
thousand cases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wines.
Scotch and Irish Whisky, Jamaica and St. Croix Rum,
some very old and equal to any in this country. He also
had three large cellars, filled with Brandy, Wines, &c.
in casks, under Custom-House key, ready for bottling. ,
Mr. WOLFE'S sales of Schnapps, last year amounted to
one hundred and eighty thousand dozen, and we hope in
less than two years he may be equally successf with
his Brandies and Wines.
His business merits the patronage of every lover a'
his species. Private families who wish pure Wines and.
Liquors for medical use should.send their orders direct
to Mr. WOLF; until every Apothecary in the land malt,
up their minds to discard the poisonous stuff from the.:
shelves, and replace it with WoLva , s cure Wass and
Liquous.
We understand Mr. WOLtru, for the accommodation of
small dealers in the country, puts up assorted cases st
Wines and Liquors. Such a man, and such a merchan t
should be sustained against his tens of thousands of us.
ponents in the United States, who sell nothing but imi
tationa, ruinous alike to human health and happiness.
