TRANSPLANTING FRUIT TREES IN THE
„SPRING OF THE YEAR.
or L. o. PtIMINN, VICt., or sourox. MASS
First prepare the ground where they are
to be Out, do that the water will not remain
on or near the roots. Examine the roots
of the tree before planting, and cut out all
rotten or defective real ; cut in (shorten )
all that are bruised or otherwise injured,
to sound wood above the wound. fle care
ful not to plant too deep, as this may be fa
tal to your tree.
lithe tree does not put out shoots in the
spring, at the usual time, or as soon as
others do that were planted at the same
time, give it one good watering at the roots,
and no more while it remains in a dormant
'state; but if the hark remains fresh, or does
not turn black, wash the head and body
with a watering pot or syringe every evening
at sundown, until it begins toshoot orgrow,
when you may erase watering the head,
and water the roots if required. I have
had trees to remain until the last of July
without putting out a leaf or shoot of any
kind, and after that become as fine speci
mens as any in my garden.
No manure should be put to fruit trees,
except it be a little vegetable manure, quite
rotten, and that mixed with the earth that
is to cover the roots. The question is fre
quently asked whether it be best to plant
fruit trees in the spring of the year
or autumn. This, in this latitude, must
depend on the soil into which they are to
be put. lithe soil be a wet, clayey one, it
'is best to plant in the spring ; but if it be a
light, gravelly soil, the autumn is prefera
ble, because you gain four or five'weeks
in the growth of your plant in the spring.
If water be allowed to remain about the
roots of trees that are recently planted, and
are not growing, it will probably rot them
by becoming stagnant and putrid. Trees
should be planted, therefore, so that the
water will run over and off the roots, which
is all they require to afford them nourish
ment.
Watering the head and body of a tree
that is tardy in puttiag forth its shoots,
is the safest, and indeed the only sure
mode of bringing them out, while a con
tinued watering of the roots is almoet
sure destruction to them.
Trees planted on a south wall or fence,
that do not put out shoots in due season.
should be covered for several hours when
the sun is out, if the weather be warn.—
The leaves may be considered a sort of sus
lion pump, which draws up the moisture
from its roots and produces its increased
growth, whereas a tree without leaves, and
that is not already attached to the ground,
has no means of carrying off the moisture
from the roots. For example, if two
branches of equal size and weight, the one
with leaves and the other without them,
are placed in vessels containing an equal
quaiitity of Water, and exposed to the sun,
the one having leaves will take up the li
quid, while the other will consume com
paratively little.
• Some ten years ago, I imported from
Paris•`9io pear trees on Quince stocks,
whose roots, on their arrival, I found to
be entirely black and dead. I shaved off
with a drawing knife all the roots down to
the stump. These I planted in trenches,
tying them to crossbars to keep them firm,
and then filled up the trench with good
soil. The heads and bodies of these were
regtilarly washed in dry weather, until
they began to sprout. which most of them
did in abundance during the summer, and
I finally saved, out of the whole number,
174, which became as well rooted and as
good trees as any in my garden.
This has hapened more than once.—
Three or foUr years ago, 1 imporrted, a
mong other trees, twenty plum trees, from
six to seven feet high, the heads of which
had been budded the previous year in
Franee. These buds had grown from
nine to twelve inches long, and were per
fectly fresh when they arrived ; but the
roots on exafhination were found entirely
dead. Two of these I gave way. One
was good for nothing, and the other seven-6
teen 1 planted in my garden, having cut
all the roots that had fibres, they being en
tirely dead. One of my men said I might
as well plant my walking stick. Sixteen
of these are now flourishing trees, well
grown and well rooted, new roots being
induced by means of washing the upper
part of the tree.
Ranarkr.—The foregoing will please
such of our leaders as like plain, sensible
advice, from a thoroughly practical man.
We have ourselVes seen with great sur
prise and satisfaction the trees referred to
as having been so successfully trrnaplant
cd by Mr. Perkins, under what were the
most unfavorable circumstances. The
great advantage of the mode he prac.
was, of watering the bark, and not water
ing roots of a tree, in a half dormant state,
our cormispourkot thoroughly convinced
us of own garden. Our readers
toe solicited to pot in practice the invalua
ble Inlvicie he gives them. There is no
doubt that half the trees that die annually
from ignonutoe of transplanters, perish
from amistakeu notion of deluging their
routs with Prater daily, whoa their fibres

NO CHANGES IN THE WEATHER will
materially affect the body if the blood is pure.--
Every individual, even the most diseased, has
within him a germ or root of that original pure
blood dour common mother Eve; which germ
of pure blood is the supporter of his life, and is
in constant struggle to throw off the heurrogen
eons, Corrupt.lutmors, which are the _causes of
disclose in the invidual. By purging the body of
this diseased blood and its bad humors, you al
low the germ of pare blood to gain ground and
to make blood of a better quality, and so on pro
gressively till the whole mass is regenerated ; for
the good principle or good pure blood, is always
striving to be predominant over the bed or die
rased humors. Let all who wish to be of a fine
healthy habit; wbo wish to have a sound mind
in a sound body; who desire tb be able to stand
without injury the constitutional changes of this
climate; whodesire to have healthy children, use
'the Brwidreth Pills, which will effectually cleanse
the blood of all bad or corrupt humors, and re

TRUST TO BRANDRETH'S PILLS, take
them so as to produce a brisk effect, and your
sickness will be the affair of a day or two, while

sick enquire of the agents for Brandreth's Pills
whether these things are so or not. Let them
enquire among their friends and ask the same
question. Verily if EVIDENCE is wanted it

the BRA NDRETII PILLS. Man will be born

INDIGESTION.—No medicine perhaps has
ever been discovered which gives so much tone
to the stomach and causes the secretion of.a
healthy gastric juice to decompose the food as Dr.
Drake's Panacea.
RIIEURATISM.--.Dr. Drake's Panacea is u.
red with the greatest success in Rheumatic Com
plaints, especially such as are chronic. It cures
by driving out all impurities and foul humours
which have accumulated in the system, which
are the cause of Rheumatistn,Gout,und Swellings
of the joints. Other remedies sometimes give
temporary relief; this enttrely eradicates the die.

bones are dreadfully swollen.

tarrh, Rror.chitis, Spitting ofßlood, Asthma, Dif
ficult or proluse Expectoration, Hectic Flush,
Night Sweats, Pain in the side, &c., have been
cured, and can be with as much certainty as any
other simple disease. A specific has long been
sought for but in vain until the discovery of Dr.
Drake l - Panacea. It is mild and sale but certaih
and efficacious in its operation, and cannot possi
bly injure the most delicate constitution. We
would earnestly recommend those afflicted to give
It a trial—and we belive they will not hare occ.a.
Ilion to regret it. The system is cleansed and
strengthened, the ulcers on the Wogs are heated,
and the patients gradually regain their usual
health ar.dstrength. Read the following testimony:
Philadelphia, Dde. I.lth, 1817.
Dean SIR reply to your question respect.
ing the use of Dr. Draken Panacea, I will say,
that although a perfect disbeliever in the existence
of a Panacea, or cure for all disecthea. however val
uable it may be in certain contlttions of the sys
tom, still I have believed that a cure for Con
sumption would be discoyered sooner or later. and
curiosity led me to try your. medicine in two very
inveterate cases, They. were pronounced by the
attending physicians to be il , L14014•111 CON IV M
TI ON, and abandoned by them as incurable. line
of the persons had been order the treatment of
several very able practitioners for a number of
years, and they said she had ''old fashioned Con.
gumption combined with Scrofula," and that she
might linger for sometime, but could not be per
manently relieved. In both cases the effect of the
Panacea has been most gratilying. Only lour or
five bottles were used by one of the persons before
she began to improve rapidly. The other took
about ten. I will only add that familiar as lion
with consumption by inheritance and, by exten
sive observation as a study, and knowing also the
injurious effects in nine cases out of ten of tar,.
honeset, and other vegetable tonics, as well as
of many of the expectorants and sedatives, I
should never have recommended the use nt Dr.
Drakes Panacea if I had not been acquainted
with the ingredients. Buffice it to say that these
are recommended by our most popular and scien
tific physicians, and in their present combined
state form probably the best alterative that has
ever been made. The cure is in accordance with
a theory of Consumption broached in France a
few years ago by one of her most eminent wri
ters on medicine, and now established by facts
which admit of no dispute. Very respectfully
you TO, L. C. GUNN.
To use the language of another, "Dr. Drake's
Panacea is always salutary in its effects—never
injurious. ,It is pot an Opiate—lsit is not an Ex
pectorant. It is not intended to lull the invalid
into a fatal security. It is a great remedy —a
grand healing and curative Compound, the great
and only remedy which medical science and skill
has yet produced for the treatment of this hither
to unconquerable malady. And no person afflict
ed with this dreadful disease, will be just to him
self and his friends if he go down to the grave
without testing its virtues. A single bottle. in
most cases, will produce a favorable change in
the condition of any patient, however low."
TO THE LADlES.—Ladies of pale complex
ion and consumptive Lubin., and such as are de
bilitated by thoesi obstructions which feuxales are
liable to, are restored by the use of a bottle or
two, to bloom and vigor. It is by far the best
remedy ever discovered for weakly children, and
such as have bad humors; being pleasant, they
take it. It immediately restores the appetite,
strength and color.
Nothing can be more surprising than its invig-
orating effects on the human frame! Peri-ons all
weakness and lassitude before taking it, at once
become robust ant full of energy under its Illfhl•
mice. It immediately countorraets the nerveless
ness of the female frame.

Mr. S. P. Phompson--Dear Sit-For more thin
four years past I had been dreadfully afflicted
with as affection of the throat, which my physi
cian pronounced "Chronic Bronchi:le," causld by
repeated and neglected colds. The distreis suf
fered Is indiscribable. My throat was literally
raw with violent spasmodic coughing, so that
blood would come from it ; also Oat ntipreaafon,
pain and tightness at the chest, and fever—in
short, all the usual pulmonary symptoms showed
themselves, causing entire loss of necessary re
pose—my throat was leeched and blistered over
and over and over again. I made trial of every
known remedy, andat different' periods had the
advice of six physicians, and all with no avail.—
A bout two months since, I made trial of your
Compound Syrup of Tar and Wood Naphtha, and
before I had taken the first bottle I felt relief. I
continued until I bed taken seven bottles, which
completely rumored the disease and restored me
to perfect health, and I firmly believe that I
should not now be living, had it not been for your
invaluable medicine. JANE PERRY,
