PACTS ABOUT APPLES.
Apples dried before they are fully ripened will
fcnake more pounds to the bushel than those that art
fully matured.
Very large apples will t yield as many pounds
of dried apples to the bushel as smaller ones.
Large apples have larger sap cells than small ones,
and less fibre."
Small-sited apples will often yield eight pounds or
dried apples to the bnshel
A bushel of Baldwins will sometimes make nine
pounds ol dried apples,
Apples with thick, close-textured skins, keep long
•r than thin-skinned fruit.
When a tree overbears, the flavor of the fruit is
impaired.
The flavor of the fruit is dependent upon the ma
turity of the sap through the leaf.
The leaves are the expanded lungs of the tree, in
which the sap is oxygeniied and purified.
The flavor of the fruit does not depend upon the
character of the sap as carried up from tha root, but
upon tho manner in which the tree breathes; hence
the character of the fruit does not follow the root up
on which it is gr&ftod, but the leaf which the scion
produces
If there is a much larger relative proportion of
fruit than leaves, the fruit will be of inferior flavor,
Pick all tha leaves trom a tree, and not an apple
on it will fully ripen.
Large-leaved trees always produce large apples,
and a nusseryman can pick out of a nursery the trees
that will bear large apples before they bare fruit
Many varieties are naturally tender and are early
killed out of nurseries in cold locations, hence the ad
vantage in buying the hardy remaining trees in nur
series so located.
RELIEVING CHOKED CATTLE.
Relieving choked cattle is of no small importance,
considering their liability to be choked, and the dan -
rrf removing the cause. There are several ways
used for relief among which arercinthe substance dor n
with a stick, firing a gun under the belly, holding up
une leg while the animal attemps to walk, crushing
the offending substance t>y two mallets, Ac.
But are they sure and ready means of relief 1- A
writer on this subject thinks not. I once saw a fine
cow relieved a* night by the. first method, which died
before morning, the stick having passe I through the
gullet. I have seen the fourth method work well in
crushing apples, but should think potatoes too hard
The other methods I have not proved, but wil< give
ene that I have proved, having relieqed several witn
ln a few years, and two last fall. It is easy, safe,
and sure, not requiring more than two minutes.
Tie up the animal, with its nose inclined upwards,
either by a rope around the horns and head, or by
two men holding it. Lot a strong man, with his
thumb ond forefinger placed below the substance iu
the gullet, force it upward to the mouth as far as
possible, keeping the grasp, and pressing the wind
pipe at the same time, causing a cough, by which
the apple or other article is thrown into tne mouth.
This I have uot known to fail. As to tapping the
animal when bloated, remove the cause, give gentle
exercise for several hours, and tap only as a last re
sort.— Boston Cultivator.
APPLE SClON.— Scions may be cut at any time be
tween the falling of the leaves in autumn and the
starting of buds in the spring. When taken off in
the fall, one method of preserving them is to bury
them a foot or two deep in the earth. I once set
several hundred which had been kept in thir way.
They appeared as jresh when taken from the ground
u those recently cut from the tree—nearly all lived
and made a good growth. In this case a trench was
dug, and some straw laid et the bottom ; the scions
laid on, and anct'aer layer of straw put over them,
and the trench then filled with earth, when taken
from the trees in winter, my method of keeping
them is to put the lower ends in loose earth on the
bottom of the cellar, nnd put a box over them to re
tain the moisturo.
When cutting scions, we should be careful to select
first-class varieties of thrifty growth, with well de
reloprd buds, and from healthy trees. Scions may
be sent huudreds of miles by mail, if envelopod in
oiled silk to exclude the air.
To CORE HAMS.—A correspondent writes to the
American Agriculturist I have never failed of
having the very best of hams by using the following
roeipe—the shoulders are equally good, only fatter;
Rub the horns thoroughly around the bone with salt,
using the best quality. To four pails of water adi'
one quart of molasses, six quarts salt, and one table
spoonful of saltpetre; they should remain in this
pickle, covered, five weeks. Cobs are preferable to
any other article to smoke with. Sack and white
wash, and you will have first quality hams the year
round. In packing my pork last fall it occurred to
me to ascettain the loss in weight in smoking hams.
I cut out a ham which weighed 26i pounds. To
day, one month nftcr smoking, it weighed 22J pounds
having los t over three pounds. A barrel of side
pork, weighing two hundred pounls, that I packed
freed from bone and most of the lean meat, on being
re-weighed had gained eight pounds."
DAIRY PRODUCTS. —An exchange states that the
census statistics disclose the fact the dairy products
of the United States amount to 8320,000,000; that
New York produces as much milk as the six New
England States, with New Jersey Delaware and Ma
ryland added ; and that New York and Pennsylvan
ia produce as much as all the other Northern States-
ACRIDULTUR AI, HETERODOXY.
An observing and thrifty farmer in the county of
Ogle noticed that wheat (spring) sown with oats was
always very nice and plump, and the heads usually
well filled, and also the oats good and heavy. He
conceived the idea of mixing these t .vo kinds of grain
in equal proportions and watch the result. Last
year he harvested fifteen bushels of good wheat, and
thiriy bushels of oats per acre. This year, (1862,)
he thinks that the wheat plont (sown wifh oats) suf
fered much by the ravages of the Hessian fly, which
made his wheat stand quite thin; notw thstanling,
he thinks it will tum out from six to eight bushels
per acre. We did not learn the number of bushels
of oats on the same ground, but have no doubt he
Mised a full average crop. Another neighbor of
tars mixed two or three kinds of wheat and a large
quantity of oats, (screenings of all his seed wheat,)
and sowed a few acres to finish out a certain plat of
ground, two years ago, and the yield of both whnat
and oats was very large. We have heard of a far
mer iu the State of New York, who always raised
two kiuds of whoat, ripening nearly at the same
time, for his market crop, bnt never sowed the hy
brid wheat, r&isitig the pure kinds on different ground
for the seed of rhe coming year. We should like it
if soma good farmer would try both these experi
ments, and report the result. A good fan will read
ily sepei ate wheat from oats.— Rock/ord Register
SDo not charge your kind os farming, be
cause what you raise this yeur is low-priced, f r
that which is high ; ten chances to one, your crop
will be up next year, and that which ie now up will
then be down

SIGNIFICANCE or A VFlNL. —Smith, tho auctioneer
is a popular man, a wit and a gentleman. No per.
son is offended at what he says, and many a hearty
laugh has he yrovoked by hi numerous sayings. He
was recently engaged in a sate of venerable household
furniture and fixings. He had just got to " Going!
going, and a half, a half, going!" when he saw a
smiling c9untenan<e upon agricultural shoulders,
wink at him.
A wink is always as good as a nod to a blinb horse
or to a keen sighted auctioneer—so Smith winked,
and the man winked, and they kept winking, and
Smith kept "Going, going!" with alotoi glassware,
stove pipes, carpets, pots and perfumery, and fiually
this lot was knocked down.
" To—whom saib Smith, gasing at the smiling
stranger.
•'Who 1 ? Golly said the stranger; "I don't know
who."
" Why you sir" said Smith.
" Who?—me?"
" Yer -you bid on tee lot," said Smith.
" Me 7 hang me if I did," insisted the stranger.
" Why, did you not wink, anp kept winking?"
" Winking! Well. I,did and so did you at me. I
thought you were winking as much as to say, " Keep,
dark, I'll stick somebody into that lot of," and I
w'nked as much as to say, " I'll be hanged if you
don't mister."
PAT IN FOR A FIGHT. —The fallowing incident of
the battle ol Stone'" River, is related by an army cor
respondent :
"An Irish rebel of the Ist Leuisianna, who had
charged too far into our front, was coming out of the
fight a captive, with a broken arm. A surgeon had
dressed it temporarily. ' Y'ou an Irishman and a
rebel," quoth I; ' what are you fighting us for?'—
( Sure, your honor,' swiftly retorted Pat, ' an' did ye
ever bear uv the likes of an army, an' there wasn't
Irishmen in it 7" ' But, Pat,' interposed Father Tra
cy, 'you were forced into the service.' ' Yer rive
rence,' replied Pat, respectfully sa luting, * I wint in
to it with good will. The boys was all goin ; there
was a foight, an' sure patrick wasn't the man to lit
inny man go furninst him.' Pat was an incorrigible
and we let him go."

THE SERENADER —
Singing Tom fall in love with a maid,
Each night 'neath her window he stood,
And there with his soft serenade,
Awakened the whole neighborhood.
But vainly he tried to arouse
Her sleep, with his strains so bewitching;
While he played in the front of the house,
She slept ia the 1 ittle back kitchhn
" Como here, you mischievous rascal."
" Won't you whip me, father V
"No."
" Will you swear you won't"
"Yes."
" Then I won't come, father for Parson At wood
says ' He that will swear will lie.' "
AN IMPUTATION. —An officer of a Maine regiment,
observing a soldier industriously scratching himself,
said to him;
What's the matter, my man—fleas!',
" Fleas !" said he in a tone of scoin, "do you think
lam a dog? No, sir, them is lice !"
THREE Venetians having come to this country
were so dreadfully attacked with ophthalmia as at
.most entirely to loose their sight. *• What can we do
with these poor fellows ?" asked a surgeon at one of
the hospital "Why," said the wag, "at the worst
we can set each ol them up as a Venetian blind."
•* >*-
"WHAT'S that ar a pictur on?" asked a country
man in a print store, the other day, of the proprietor,
who was turning over some engravings. " That, sir,
is Joshua commanding the sun to stand still.', "Du
tell! Which is Josh, and which is his son ]"
" I GO through my work," as the needle said to the
idle boy '• But not till you are hard pushed," as
the sdle boy said to the needle.
How Paddy Bought the Judge.
Some years ago there became quite a struggle be
; iween two certain prominent Democrats as to which
; should go delegate to the State Convention. The
evening prior to holding the County Convention,
' Judge M— and Square J each had ba>lots
printed with the names of their friends upon them
The Judge's delegates were defeated, and before ro
tiring he consoled himself by loading his hat with
bricks. Next morning, in good season, acting upon
the principle that '• a hair of the dog is good for the
bite," hewontin pursuit of a " hair." Just as he
was calling for the decoction, Bill Mcßlarney stepped
into the saleon and saluted the Judge, when the fol
ing dialogue ensued;—
"The top o' the mornin' to ye Judge. And the
murtherin' thaves bate us laft night entirely—the
curse of the world on 'em!"
' Good morning, Billy. Yes, sqaure was rather
heavy. But I say Hilly, I understand you voted
against me. How is that ?"
"Billy Mcßlarney voted aginstye! The lyin'
spalpeens? By my sowl, I'd rather have my whis
key stopped for a year than |to do that same thing." j
"What ticket did you vote, Billy 1" "Ana sure '
I voted the ticket wid yer honor's name on the top of !
it." "But, Billy, my name was the last on the list, !
at the b -ttom."
This was rather a puzzler to Billy ; he scrached his
head for an instant, when he suddenly exclaimed :
"Bad luck, and what a fool I am! I voted the
ticket upside down."
The Judge immediately ordered an eye-opener for
Billy ; he fairly beat him on examination.
" Oh, pray let me have my way this time !"
aid a young gentleman to his lady love. " Well,
Willie, I suppose I mHst this once, but you know ihat
aftea we have married I shall always have a Will of
my own.
THE EARLY DEAR. —Some one has said of those
who die youug, that they are like the lambr which
Alpine shepherds bear in their arms to higher, green
er pastures, that the flosks may follow.

replied;—" To marry a rich widow with a bad

Did space permit, we could give manv hutdiij
certificates, from all parts where the Pilli
been used, but evidence even more convincing tki
the experience of eminent public men is fouad■
their effects upon trial.
These Pills, the result of long investigation pj
study, are offered to the public as the best
most complete which the present state of ma;
science can afford. They are compounded no: ■(
the drags themselves, but of the medicinal ;
only of Vegetable remedies, extracted by cheniaj
process in a state of purity, and combined togeta!
m such a manner as to insure the best results." ~a
[ system of composition for medicines has-been jtsjTj
in the Cherry Pectoral and Pilis both, to prodaaij
more efficient remedy than had hitherto been '
tained by any process. The reason is perfectly w-1
vious. While by the old mode of composition. ew>.
medicine is burdened with more or less of j® I
monious and injurious qualities, by this each its, i
vidual virtue only that is desired for the cunts]
effect is present. All the inert and obnoxious <ju, 5
ities of each substance employed are left behind.!* ;
curative virtues only being retained. Hence ar
self-evident the effects should prove, as they ia|
proved, more purely remedial, and the Pills a rum i
more powerful antidote to disease than anyone
medicine known to the world.
As it is frequently expedient that my
should be taken under the counsel of an attrndagl
Physician, and as he could no*, properly judge o!i|
remedy without knowing its composition, 1 isn|
supplied the accurate Formulae by which both
Pectoral and Pills are made to the whole bodifjg
Practitioners in the Un'ted States and British Aaeg
ican Provinces. If, however, there should beg J
one who has not received them, they will is|
promptly forwarded by mail to his request. j|
Of all the Patent Medicines that are offered, xll
few would be taken if their composition wa knerf|
I'heir life consists in their mystery. 1 haitfl
mysteries.
The composition of my preparations is laid t#|
to all men, and all who are competent to judpfi
the subject freely acknowledge their convictions®
their intrinsic merits. The Cherry Pectoral H
pronounced by scientific men to be a nonadH
medicine before its effects were known. MatysH
iner.t Physicians have declared the same thinjlg
my Pills, and even more confidently, and
ng to certify that their anticipations were j
than realized* by their effects upon trial.
They operate by their powerful influence nil
internal viscera to purify the blood and sthnulnfl
nto healthy action remove the obstnictioi'ij
the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs CIM
iodv, restoring their irregular action to neaittwj
bv correctine. wherever they exist, such deruf \
nients as are the first origin of disease.
Being sugar-wrapped, they are pleasant to aII
and being purely vegetable, no harm can axaefi a
iheir use in any quantity. m
