The old adage or rule, saya Our Gown.try Horne, that ··the best time to prune is when the saw is sharp " is shown by t he iight of modern science and pri·ctic~ to be a.n unsafe on e to follow. The knife or sawsh ou ld never b e used u p on a f r m"t or ornamental tree u nless there a re very urgent reasons for doing so, for , no Jn1l.tter how small the cut may be, it undoubtedly short.ens the life ot the tree and we11kena it. There are thr«e oondit.ions under which it is advisable to prune : First , to give the c1·ee a go@ d form; s"cond. t o in· crease growt.h ; third, t o check growth. Undc1· the first may be includPd the re· moval of dead branches, whioh ia IU(Jl't> ei,1silv done when the foliage is upon the " trne ; but, while old trees otten take on such irregular forms from surrounding ~ influences t hat we deeide to prun e or im· prove t hem, if a tree has proper care, from t11e small seedling, and has full exposure on all eides there will be found httle real need for cutttng away ;i.ny large branches.

At thi~1 time i.f a p arh of the buds are removed and t he roots remain uninjured those buds remaining will start with increased vigor.

' l!Jross-brccding. It · taa al ways been taught that pure-bred cuttk, sheep, 1.1wine, hor11es an<l poultry are the be2t. However meritorio111> purebreds may be, crosi1es, as a rule, pay be1>t for t·i·dinary practical purposes. Halfbree<ls, that iB, the first cross between pure-br ed sires and pure or improved da.m.s" are now qnite generally credited v..-ith being the best, at leaat for fattening purpoaes, both as rogards early maturity and quality. lf out-crossing is continued all d.!sHi:1otive characteristio.s are soon lost, a.nd by tfo:i reversion nondescrip·~ ·.md undesirable animals will be produced ; and by in-crossing the qualities of. t;he original blood will be increased, and soon tha offuprir..g wiil be scarcely different from pnrebreeds. 'l'ake sheep, for instance, and 8uppose a Southdown ram to be crossed on Merino ewes. 1'he first cro~a will be half and hr.Llf of each of the found'l?tion strains of blood. If these half bloods are bred again to Southdown rams, ancl espeeially t i their own sire, the offspring will be 75 per cent. Southdown blood, and in a few more generations of similar-in-breeding in a cerbain line of Southdown sireo the sheep would be practically Southdowns· So too in swine, cattle, and poultry by inbreeding in a certain line of siroa the offspring will be practically the aame as the sira in blood. Cross-breeding for pzaticB.l fattening purposes gives the best results in first crosses. But by good management no harm will reanlt in breeding from the grade fem1le and 111 pure-baed male.

A farm journal thus describes a portabh sheep shed : It consists of six pieces, and may bo. taken apart and set up with only a few minutes' ~ork, The aides are nailed together with three studs, and the cover is in two secbions and made of matched pine, with a top board over the orack where the top sect,iona go together. A scantlmg goes across the front to support che roof. '.J?his scantling is not,ch ed at the enqs to hold up at the top, the bottom being held in 1 1la.ce by a peg dr iven into the ground. The roof is kept in place by hooks and r.taples, and so is the back side. The hooks are fastened to the pouts and the st aples are in the root, The r0ar ends of the sides are kept in place by the aama meana. The roof projects over in front for two feet. The sides may be the length of a board; t he front is :five feet high, and the rear four feet. There is a great deal of comfort in such a shed for the sheep, as well as a saving in the manure. lt. is a safe retreat to eseape from the gad-fly, which is such a pest to sheep during the summer mont hs, and which they try to avoid by huddling together with t heir noses to the ground. Virginia punishes her State prison con· victs by withholding t heir ration3 of tob11.cco. Two clays brings the worat man to time. Crime is so ra.mpant in I taly that thefts and burglarl:e11 are scarcely notfoed by t he authorities. An English correapondent says t hat every tent h man is ·a criminal, and every fifteenth a awindl· ing beggar. They 'll !lave to banish their bad me1. to America..
