SALT FOB POULTRY.
The question as to whether ?alt is
injurious to poultry has often been
mooted. To get at the true fact.*?, I
have been feeding salt to all niv poult;},
young and old alike, and closely watch
ing the result. I have fed it in cold
mush and hot, in bran and everything
else, all the spring and summer (so
far), with the following result: The
poultrv will eat all kinds of salted food
in preference to unsalted; they arc
better in general health; not a louse
of any kind in young or old (the first
year I have been able to say so), and
thev are all beginning to moult, many
of them laying as though not moult
ing. Eggs are cheap now, and the
hens will be ready for fall laying when
the weather is cold and eggs scarce.
This may or may not be the result of
feeding salt largely to them, but I am
compelled to believe this to be so, as
are some other peculiarities. I have
noticed one feature, which may not be
in favor of salt—the hens have seemed
to be more persistently inclined to sit,
it being very difficult to break off the
inclination they sit much closer than
usual. All seem voraciously fond of
green food of anv kind, and have eaten
a large quantity of clover, grass, young
corn, and other similar food. My
observations lead me to the conclusion
that salt is a needed condiment for all
our poultry, and in all points is bene
ficial to them. Pigeons are excessively
fond of salt in any form, and why should
not our poultry be also? Such being
the true status, it behooves us to con
sider their needs and attend to them.
HOW TO PLANT TREES.
We have received from a few of our
customers that some of
their trees died; so when we could,
we looked into the case, and gen
erally found that their death was
caused by neglect, carelessness or ig
norance in planting. For instance,
one wrote a woeful letter about his
plants being mostly dead, but accident
ally mentioned that he kept them for
two weeks in his cellar before planting;
BO of course they all rotted. Another
crammed his trees into a hole dug in
hard gravel, as he would a post—so
the tree died because it could not pos
sibly live—in fact he might as well
hare laid it on the top of the ground.
Another that his trees came in good
condition, but he was not quite ready
to plant them, so kept them in the
wood house for a week. A fourth that
his trees came all right, nice, large
trees, but now they are all shrivelled
and don't grow. We write him—too
much top, prune. Now, in the first
place, if you intend to plant an orchard,
or a few trees, find out from your
•neighbors what variety grows best in
your section, and see if they sell well
in market. Next, get your ground in
a good condition by ploughing and
harrowing until it is finely pulverized.
If soil is wet or damp it must be
drained. Order your trees from a re
liable nursery, stating that you prefer
medium-sized stocky trees to large ones.
If, on the receipt of trees the ground
is frozen, or if very windy, put them
in a cool, damp place where they can
not freeze, and soon as possible, "heel
them in," by spreading them out and
burrying well the roots and half of
the tree, laying it on the ground nearly
horizontally, and soon as possible plant
out where it is to remain. Have the
ground all ready. Never plant where
an old tree stood before. The hole
should be dug at least two feet in
diameter (five is better), and have one
foot of good rich soil under the roots.
Take your tree and prune off the ends
of the tree at least one third, always
with a sharp knife. After digging the
hole make a little mound in the centre
rather than a basin; and after the tree
is set on it, carefully adjust the roots,
so that each one is spread out in its
natural position; the fine (no lumps)
rich dirt is then filled in till half full,
so that each little root will come in
contact with the solid soil. If it is
taken in the spring, or if the soil is
dry, empty a pail of water in the hole,
and then fill up with rich dirt. Just
before planting the roots should be
puddled by dipping in a thin mud.
After the ground is settled the tree
should be the depth it was at the nur
sery. The trees would be better if
securely staked, especially if along the
road. Hoc the ground, and mulch
with barnyard or stable manure or cut
straw, which will protect from cold in
winter or drought in summer. The
manure must not be new.
In the after management of An
orchard, the ground should be thor
oughly cultivated, and small stuff, like
raspberries, potatoes or peas grown
between the trees; but the ground
must be enriched every year. Grass
should never be grown in orchards
except to be ploughed under, except in
old pear orchards.— Lake View Horti
culturist.
SALT FOR TREES AND VEGETABLES.
I set twenty-five trees in sandy soil
for each one of seven years and only
succeeded in getting one to live, and
that only produced twigs a few inches
long in nine years. Last spring I
sowed a pint of salt around it, and
limbs grew from three to three and a
half feet long. In the spring of 1877
I set out twonty-five trees, putting a
pint of salt in the dirt used for filling,
and then sowed a pint more on the
surface, after each tree was set. All
grew as if they had never been taken
from the nursery. Last spring I set
thirty more, treating them in the same
way, and they have grown very finely.
The salt keeps away insects that in
jure the roots and render the soil more
capable of sustaining plant growth.
In 1877 my wife had a garden forty
feet square. It was necessary to
water it nearly every day, and still
the plants and flowers were very in
ferior in all respects. In 1878 I put
half a barrel of brine and a half bushel
of salt on the ground and turned thein
under. The consequence was that the
plants were of extraordinary size and
the flowers of great beauty. It was
not necessary to water the garden,
which was greatly admired by all who
saw it. The flowers were so large
that they appeared to be of different
varieties from those grown on the
land that was not salted.
I had some potatoes growing from
seed that wilted down as soon as the
weather became very hot. I applied
salt to the surface of the soil till it was
white. The vines soon took a vigor
ous start, grew to the length of three
feet, blossomed and produced tubers
from the size of hen's eggs to that of
goose egga. My soil is chiefly sand,
but I believe that salt is highly bene
ficial to clay.— Correspondent of the
Chicago Times.

AYKK'S I'ILI.S have been known for
more than a quarter of a century, and have
obtained a world-wide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
bo iv. and are so composed that obstruc
tions within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do thev
cure the cverv-day complaints of every
body, but also" formidable and dangerous
diseases that have battled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they <iripe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the elements of weakness.
Adapted to all aires and conditions in
ail climates, containing neither calomel
nor anv deleterious drug, these l'ills may
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
su'.'ar-coating preserves them ever fre.-h,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use i:i any quantity.
