TO PREPARE TREES FOR PLANTING* With a sharp knife cut off, eloping from the under side, any bruised or broken roots, then reduce the tops to correspond with the. loss of roots, cutting off surplus branches and reducing those forming the head to three or four buds on each of last year's shoots This will cause a more healthy and vigorous growth the first season omission is a common cause of the failure or sickly growth of newly planted trees. In netting let one person hold the tree in its position, while another fills in the mellow earth, pressing it firmly among tae roots with the hand, taking care to leave no cavi ties underneath—and when the roots are all covered, pressing the whole down firmly with the foot. Avoid deep planting— when all is finished the tree should be no deeper than when in the nursery. Grape-vines should be cut back to two or three eyes, and only one ol tluse be permit ted to grow the first year. Raspberries and blackberries should be cut back to within one foot of the ground. Gooseberries and currants should be cut back to one or two eyes ..f last season's growth. . The time for planting, in the autumn, is after the first hard frost until the ground is closed, (from the 20th of October to the last of November, in Ohio,) or any time nine spring before the opening of the buds Irees procured in the fall may be kept safely for planting in spring by burying them half their length in mellow earth, (in a sloping position) where DO water is liable to stand • a slight covering of brush or forest leaves' over the tops will be of service in case the winter should prove severe. Small bushes, like raspberries, grapes, &c., may be buried entirely in earth. Trees planted in the Jail should have earth hilled up around the stems, six inches or more in height, to hold them firmly in posi tion during the winter , and protect the roots somewhat from frost and excess of wet. This is also protection against injury by mice. In spring the earth should be levelled, and two or three inches of coarse manure or litter spread on the surface over the roots for a space of four or five feet in diameter ; HUB Will keep the surface moist, prevent baking, and eheck the growth of weeds. If planting is done rather late in sprint: and in dry weather, it is well to give water freely, after setting the trees and cover..,;: the roots with earth, letting it settle before finishing up; then if the surface is mulchec P6couimendedj no farther watering is nee essary. No grass or grain crops should be grown among fruit tress, at least uutil they have arrived at bearing size. Neglecting this pre caution is the most common cause of the fail ure of young orchards. NoJ farmer expects a hill of corn to flourish among grass or other crops, and without cultivation j u is jut as unreasonable to expect young fruit trees to grow well in such circumstances; yet how seldom do we see anything like common sens* exhibited in this thing l—Coun. Gent. SALT FOR FATTENING SWINE, A correspondent of the Annaten des Land Virthschaft states some interesting experi ments to test the use of salt in fattening swine. He selected two pairs of barrov hogs, weighing 200 pounds apiece. One pai: received, with their daily allcwance of food two ouncos of salt; the other pair, similarly fed, none. In the course of a week it was ea sily seen that the salted pair had a rnucli stronger appetite than the others, and after a fortnight it was increased to two ounces apiece. After four months the weight of the salted hogs was 350 pounds each, while that of the unsaltea, five weeks later, reached on ly 300 pounds. The experiment was repeat ed with almost precisely the ame results The author feeds young pigs, aocordi ,g to their age, a quarter of an ounce liailv ; breed ing sows very little durim- -qncv. am during the heat of sum great degree from all, „ • an liability to disease.

ANGELS.— Children are earth's angels, and t eir voices fall like music on the heart. h ® re is a juvenile scrap on a far different sort of angels: Last summer, in the height of mosquito time, the little rascals practised their songs nightly, to the annoyance of every one While a little girl, Ettie, then about five years old, was being put to bed, her mother said to her, " Ettie, you must always be a good girl, and then at night, when you are asleep the the angels will come and watch around your bed. "Oh ! yes, ma," said Ettie, "I know that, heard them singing all arround my head last night, and some of them bit me, too !" | A CUTE DARK EY ._ Bob," now called Belmont Bob is the body servant of General Uernard, and at the battle of Belm ont it is said of him that when the retreat commenced he started for the boats. Reaching the bank he dismounted and slid rapidly down, when' an officer seeing the action: called out : "Stop you rases', aud bring along the horse." Merely looking up as he waded to the plank through the mud, the darkey replied : " Cant 'bey Colonel ; Major told me to save the most valuable property , and dis nig ger s worf mor in a horse." A VALI ABLE VICE— The following is at tributed to an eminent personage, perhaps the most eminent, of the French empire- 4 ady was declaiming .n his presence against the use of tobacco, and prayed that he would arrest the encroachments of a habit which had town to be a vice. "A vice it may be mad awe, but find me a virtue which yields the 1 reasury one hundred and twenty millions of Irancs a year. 'John, said a minister to his hired man "you should become a tetotelar, you have been drinking again to-day." "Do you never take a drop yourself ? Ah, John; you must look at your circumstances and mine." very true," said John 'but can you tell me w the streets of Jerusalem were kept so clean- 'No John'l cannot tell you that. en, sir, it was just becsuse every one kept- HIS ;JVVIJ door clean." A THOUGHTFUL BOV.-A boy was one asked by a companion, with whom he wa g <rng to ride on horse back, to take such i irip as would violate his father's command but he noby declined. 'Nobody will see you replied the other, still urging him to perforn the evil act. ( l shall see myself, exclaimei the manly fellow, with a firm resolve to di right all over his face ' Poor Ilans !" wrote a German to a friend who had been inquiring after his son, \ he blt himp eH mit a rattlesnake, and vas sick into his ped vive weeks in te month of August, and all his cry vas, vater. vater And couldn't eat nothing at all till he com p 11 ried <>f peing a leetle pettersohe could stand up on h s elbow and eat a cup o' tea.' I-VTEMPF.RANCE._Oh, could a drunken man. when sober see himself and hear himself when under the influence of liquor, how would he abhor himself—how detest the intoxica ting draught and how would he desire to refrain from that which must, sooner, or la <er. bring disgrace upon himself, and destruc- j 'ion upon his household. A little fellow, not more than five years old, hearing some gentlemen at his fa ther's table discussing the familliar line. "An bonest man's the noblest work of God," said he knew it wasn't true; his mother was bet ter than any man that was ever made.
