This is J a great iuLtake, for in either- case eternal i \igiluni-e i, the price of good fruit. Here _ and there, ill districts that are essentially _ gireu to fruit-raising, thrifty. young. and , well.euvcd-fot. older orchards may be found. i But the general run of farms are without ', young fruit trees ; and, if there is an I orchard, too often it will be found to con- , sist of scraggy, misshapen trees, that are , allowed to shift for themselves and gain a. , living as best they can, while the owner ‘ grumbles and complains that orchards are I not profitable, because his fruit, when there is any, is small and won-my, and good for _ nothing but cider.

The experiment is alumni ( oucd and fruit-growing pronounced unpro- l fital4e, because the trees do not prosper and ' bring forth fruit. Thousands of fruit trees Fare bought of the nurscl'ymen each year f and planttd out in this way. Many of , thun die directly. Some of them struggl . _ alt-n: against every adverse cireuturtane that can possibly be put upon them, even ' tn being turned over to the tender mercies : ol the cattle after harvest ; and because ! they do die or do not thrive the nursery. men are blamed. while the farmer potlu,; the loss of the cost of the trees and the labor of planting, and rents his disappointed ex- pectations in unkind words and more than unkind thoughts against the party of whom the trees were purchased. Trees need care, the same as any plant that grow". They have wants that have to be attended to or they die. Their future life and success de. pendr, entirely on the care and skill with which they are transplanted and the atten- tion they ntterwurd receive. _ Experience. in many eases,has thorough- " preren that the best site for an apple orchard is a northern exposure. We by no ‘mcans intend to any that apples will not 'sotcetimes do well in valleys or southern ‘cxpnsnres; but taking one year with an- lother, the orchard which has a northern nexpomre will be uniformly better than any 1,ther. Uniformity of temperature and re- lturdat‘on in budding me everything in pre- l-erving the health and promoting the pro- iductirencss of any fruit tree. An orchard ‘plunted on a hillside, with r. full northern lexposuro. always stands the winter and " uniformly productive. That with a southern exposure, planted in valleys or protected Ps belts, is liable to constant changes of litemperature. buds early and is subject to 1late trusts, which prevail only in low situa- itious, and to consequent destruction of the l crops of fruit. The fall season for p.'auting trees is at hand, and, cxccpt for the dung: of winter. killing in cold climates, is perhaps prefer- an m the spring season. because the ground may be prepared at leisure and tho trees mill have the whole winter to settle themselves in their new quarters and be ready to grow as soon as the season eon:- menccs. l The cultivation and propagation of fruit is fast becoming, if it is not already. I nutter of national interest. and American farmers will do Well if they meet the exist ing and increzining demand by renovating their old orchards, as well as new ones. An English paper lately stated that American apples have gained so high it reputation in that market tlmt quick sale can be found there for from twelve to fVUen thousand bautvl, pm week fur the whole marketyenr " nine months. The home demand has gruwn immensely in the put few years. and gum] apples are now the most staple and reliable of all the fruit cups. If good fruit is raised, and proper care is taken in selecting and pushing only that which is sound and fair, it will always command good prices. This ought to be a tsMieieut inducement for farmers, all over the eountry. to take the necesaxry pains to grow the tinest apples. As a rule. orchards in this cuuutry are very badly neglected, Thoso who contemplate setting out an orchard this fall will do well to bear this in mind.

It the fruit is more for home use, the varieties selected should comprise such as will give a supply from the earliest to the latest. Those who are not familiar with the different varieties " fruit should consult a reliable grower in their immediate vicinity. . In buying trees, buy only ofnurscrymen 'f established reputation. It requires from 6 to 10 years' growth for tries to bear fruit, and no risk should be taken of having them all wrong when they come to maturity. Even if the trees cost more or if the freight should be something extra, it is better than risking a purchase from unknown parties. If a personal selection of trees is possible. look at the rank, rather than the tops. A tree with in fall mass of fibroue roots, even if the top looks poor, is hotter than a hand. Tho holes in which the trees are to be placed should be (1113 large enough to take in the roots in their natural position, With- oat cramping; and deep enough to have several inches of well-rotted manure at the bottom, the manure to he covered with dirt, so that the roots shall not touch it. In putting the tree in its place, none but good topsoil should be put around the roots; and this should be made fino and packed elosely,so that no open spaces shall remain. It is hotter to first set the tree deeper than it will Stand, and, having partially filled up around it, to raise the tree to its proper height by a slight churning motion in the lame earth, then fiil up and pack closely. leaving the dirt about one or two inches higher around the tree than when it came from the nursery. The soil should be stumped with the foot or packed with the mallet ; and at the last a liberal supply of water should be turned over it to thorough- ly settle it in its place. The trees should be left leaning slightly in the direction from which come the prevailing heavy winds. For spring planting an immediate liberal mulch of straw or hay is absolutely neces- sary to keep the ground moist through the heat of summer. Fw, Ind priiioto" the rip'ouing of? the mum tap with nut enough roots to support it. Vegetable life is only at its best when thr. re is it proper proportion between the routs and braneltes,and when a tree is taken tram the nursery a large part of the growth of roots is neseestuuily taken oft. This makes it essential to somewhat reduce the t p growth at the time of resetting, to make up for the loss of roots. This must be done wid, judgment, and the reduction of the toy need lnvt he as great as the loss the roots have sustained ; for it is also im. portant to have as many leaves as tho con- dition of the tree will safely allow. A good way is to first shape the top by cutting away any twigs that make it one-sided or nut of proportion, and then mt back one- half or two-thirds of the previous season‘s growth, or (me-your shoots. This must always be done at the time of transplant- ing. and never utter the buds have begun to open. Cutting off the foliage ot newly. sot trons after it has wholly or partly ex. panded checks the growth and injures the tree. llefure planting, any mutilated roots, should also be cut back to the sound Wt " N. poor but! the roots will grow longer and more room is needed. For long-lived trees it is generally cuneeded that 40 feet each wny is close enough for the best results. Trees that are of slow growth and small at maturity may be planted neuter together ; but it is certainly poor pulicy to plant so closely as to injur? the trees, while no in. jury can possibly come from giving them too much room. No former Would expect a. crop of corn without proper cultivation; and it must be homo in mind that fruit trees need as much attention, in their way, as any crop that grows. Young trees, therefore, trans- planted from the nursery, need a continua- tion of the some care they have received from the narsoryman's hands. They must be protected, pruned, and properly nursed each and every year. The time for prun- ing is when the severe weather is over, and before the leaves are done growing. When tho trees are large enough to use a saw, the cuts should be smoothed with a draw. ing knife and covered with melted grafting wax or thick paint. In the fall a liberal mulch of manure, properly prepared or well rotted, should be applied to enrich the ground nml protect the trees from frost and standing water. In the spring this must be levelled book. as a summer mulch because earth should - be heaped around the body of u troo In summer. and the base of the the should be kept clout, to prevent ottuks from grubo. that no opt to infect young orohordo who" the ground but been calm-stud uvenl saloons, Show should be voided u a v mulch u.

I asked to see it, and was told it was moulting at the time ; its fiae tail wn. gone, and therefore was in hiding, and dis. liked to be seen ; it felt ashamed of its poor draw. I once Iotlged at a gentlomaa's house who bid a pair of canary birds in a large cage ; they had had that your two batches of four young ones each time. They were all full grown, but one of the young ones had tho misfortune to have n black feather in its wing. The whole family persecuted it because of that one black featlter,eneh one taking hold of the offensive feather to pull it out whenever the poo: win] came near. It had to sit by itself in consequence, lost heart. and had to be given away.

Not another bird was there. and they ran from hole to hole as silent as if they had lost their voices, nor would they quit their solitary abode. Evidently the small bit off their tails had broken their hearts and driven them to each. other as brothers in adversity. Why had they gone into banishment to spend a gloomy summer in each other's society? Had their mates discarded them because of their Moby tails ' or had they mngunnimously dissolved the marriage re. lation, leaving their hens to thejoys of ane tailed sparrows and the pleasures of family life ' I thought of David's men at J ericho. with their garments cut oft, so ashamed that. they could not return home.

If by chance he came in the way of a trooper against whom he might have had a grievance he would butt at him, causing thereby such a disturbance as made it necessary tor him to be forcibly ejected.
