I HE E\ PRESS. Cedartown, May 2nd. iarm and Fireside. Ore ard Work. It is tery WoncIIciul to fruit trees to Cultivate them, riant your apple •ltd pencil orchards in potatoes or stock pens. Cultivating the land lets the air into the roots and that in connection with the manure that you apply to your potatoes or pear, with the addition of the vines and leaves fbut arc left on the ground lo decay, will niakq them thrifty and the' limit l etter. If you want largo fruit, you must not let your trees hold too great a number. The best lime to thin the fruit, is lust after the danger of frost is past, while the fruit i»yoni$ and small. 1’incli trees will not need any more manuring than what is recom mend! d above. Apples may he ma nured by scraping around the roots and putting on any kind of manure convenient, l’oar trees occasional ly need, in addition to other manures a small quantity of salt, drape vines, should not he cultivated deep. All that is necessary for them, is to keep the grass and weeds cut from around them with a hoe, being care ful not to cut too deep ns the roots run just under the top of the earth Look after your vines and keep Hie bugs off, ne the young sprouts come < ut. Pinch off all the eyes except those you wisli to bear and let them be very few. To keep the insects off, fumigate the vines with cotton and sulphur. Sprinkle sulphur over loose cotton lint and tap it. lightly and it will permeate it then set. it on Ore and hold it under the vines. Jo$h Billir.fi's Saying's.

Now farmer why not go to-work in your business to win and to make it pay? Add every thing you can la your country home to adorn it, as well as to make your farm pay. Provido yourself with £ood stock, select seeds, improved tools; cultivate your farm thorough ly, and yon will not regret it One of onr citizens says there is nothing really astonishing about the case of tho Rhode Island man who is alive with two bullets in his head, for ho has a daughter whose head is fall of balls and parlies all the time.

THAN CAN BE MADE IN ANY OTHEIl IVAY. SEA FOAM is mi entirely new Inven tion, without nny of tho Imd qualities of jteatt or baking powtltrt, soda, or saloratus. SEA FOAM contaliiH no ingredient or element whltdi can products an injurious effect, but on the contrary hoa In Itself a (undoncy to sustain and nourish tho lmumn rodent. It la ABSOLUTELY PURE Not Infrequently tho best of (lour gets all tho blame, when In reality tho dark color and poor taste arc both caused by the uso of Inferior raising powder. Many baking powders now highly recommended by grocers, and henco largely sold, aro mado of old bones ground up, and by a chemical process mixed with other Ingredient*, liefore lending their Influence to increase tho *alo of buy baking powder, grocers would do well to ascertain tho reputation nml ■landing of Its manufacturers. They would Urns avoid becoming hiMrumcntnl in perpe- trnllnga fraud on their customers, and would in the long run make more money. Of courso no honest man would knowingly lend himself to such a fraud upon his customers, and it Is very poor policy for any grocer to attempt to palm off Inferior goods when the best aro asked for. He may by fo doing make a little money nt the lime, but ho surely will at sorao time, if tlio fraud is discovered, lose one of his best customers, and with him a score of others who might otherwise have dealt with him. A merchant's wisest policy Is to secure tho best customer*, and they ore Ju**t tho ones who want tho best goods. SEA FOAM Ih WITHOUT AM EQUAL It Is prepared from the purest and best materi als only, nml la never under any olrcum- atunues adulterated. There is no longer nny excuse for sour, heavy, or sodden bread, bis cuit, or pastry. Every liousewlfo in tho land should make herself acquainted with tho facts wo have stated, which uro indisputable, and she will soon ascertain that most of tho yeast preparations now being sold aro anyth tug elso but what they profess to be, and that tills Is the main reason why to large a propor tion of tho bread con.snmed by tho masses of tho community 1b unhcoUhful. Invalids are especially Interested In thin question of yeast, and ought to keep constantly in mind the im portant fact Uiat their dietary should at all times be tho best, nml that under tho most favorable circumstances they can not hope to regain health and strength unless their food Is tho most healthful nml nutritious that can bo obtained. Good food makes good blood, and the noire force is strengthened or impaired In proportion us tho food we eat Is nutritious or otherwise.' SEA FOAM is worthy of a fair trial, and that is ail wo oak for it. No one having oncourcd it will overuse any other preparation in tho baking powder line, but will at one * houso tho varh preparations In the form of yeast that havo so long end so persistently tended to destroy health by imperfectly performing tiro require ments they professed to fulfill. SEA FOAM retains in all thoir excel lence tho nutritious properties nml natural taste of tho various cereal preparations of food, while In bread raised by the ordinary means thero is very frequently great .loss of thoir toothsoino and palatahlo qualities. Of all baking or yeast powders, Sea Foam Is beyond dispute the BEST IN THE WORLD Give it a trial, and you will concede that wo havo offered you tho means to make poor flour much better than when used under ordinary conditions, while good flour will Lo Immeasurably increased in sweetucss, rich ness, and all thoso qualities which combine to render good bread essentially the stair of life. SEA FOAM Is now used by the leading hotels and restaurants in New York city and throughout tho country.
