Onions. —An old gardener says in the
Detroit Tribune, with regard to culti-
rating onions, that if care is taken to
draw away the earth gradually from the
IrallM until they ar#-quite. uncovered,
and only the fibrous roots Rre in the
earth, you will never have scnllhnia, but
very large, aonnd onions.
Graphs Vinks.—Trellises for vines can
be made or repaired cheaper and more
conveniently now than in soring. Lo
cust is the most durable wood; red ehos-
nut and ehesuut rank next. Where lo
cust is scarce pieces three feet long may
be sunk two and a half feet in the ground
and uprights of pine or other timber
nailed to them.
Halt for Land.—Salt should not lx*
applied to such lands as border ou the
sea or are in any way affected by tho
spray of the ocean. Coarse salt should
be mixed with the compost heap and
not applied directly to the plant*. As
paragus, naturally a native of the sea
shore, will require large quantities of
salt. This should only be applied, how
ever, when the shoots are growing. At
any other time it will injure the roots.
Used on tho beds about the end of May
it will help to kill weeds and grasses.
8trawrf.rries in tub Citt.—The fol
lowing novel suggestion is from the
Fruit Recorder, and is one that might
be carried out with little trouble and ex
pense: “How many of our city renders
might have fresh, fragrant strawberries
and other dainties, with but little oaro
or trouble! But, say some, ’the rain
water would be filled with dirt. ’ No, not
if properly grown—that is, by setting the
pots or boxes holding the plants iu pans
or boxes that are water tight. Fifty
S lants of strawberries would give a fam-
y of four to five persona a nice dish
daily for two weeks. Fifty i>ots of an
nuals like petunias, balsams, etc., would
make a show that would be beautiful and
well repay all trouble. Try it, readers.”
Orchard Notes.—It is commonly the
case that the orchard is cmoped year
after year until the diminished yield
shows that something mtist liedone.' The
{ ►roper way is to give a moderate mnuur-
ug annually; stable manure put ou in
the fall and plowed in, or in small or
chards forked in, may be alternated with
ashes or lime ou other years. Clover to
bo pastured l)y hogs, and afterward
plowed under, is one of the best fertiliz
ers. Trees of forced growth are more
tender than others ana so snffer more
from sudden changes of climate. For
this reason too high cultivation is # as bad
os not enough. Heading back and root
f mining are the best methods of *cstor-
ug barren trees. Wood ashes is tho l>Ast,
fertilizer for .trees* vines and bushes.
Prune apple-trees so as to give them n
low, well-balanced top. One such tree
is worth several tall, irMSpnlar trees.
Peach orchards should dry; fertile
soil on a Northern or Western slope.
Lath ^Evebobebip Dorn. —A trust
worthy writer in the Rural Xnv Yorker
plants liis evergreen fweef corn in the
following way: The soil is sandy gravel,
naturally warm, and of moderate fertil
ity; in fact, not rich enough to produce
satisfactory crops without manure, which
I did not have in sufficient supply to feel
sure of a full cfop. Consequently T pur
chased a little .superphosphate to give
tho corn the benefit of its effects (if any)
in its earliest growth. As the crop of
field corn was planted, having a little
manure yet in the caiUu yard, ye Kcruuwl

How Church-Tower Clocks Are Wound.
Tho oldest tower-clock in New York is
in St. Paul’s steeple. It was made iu
1778, by John Thwait, of London. The
clock in Ht. John’s Church was put iu
the tower in 1812. The Trinity clock was
placed in its lofty station, 200 feet from
the pavement, iu 1816, tv James Bogcrs.
In dry weather this clock runs well; but
in damp, chilly weather it sometimes
atops, owipg to tho precipitation of mow-

A tmly diadnctic saying is attributed
by .Elian to the Hjwtan magistrates.
“ When oertain )>eraous from Clazomene
inul come to Sparta and smeared with
nxit tho scuta on which tlie Spartan
mgistratos sat discharging public du
ties; on discovering what had been dona
and by whom, they expressed no indig
nation. but merely ordorod a ptiblto
proclamation to bo made, ‘Let it bo law
ful for the people of Clazomema to make
blackguards of thomselves."* A very
large number of apothegms, proverbs,
>r sayings of more or less wit occur up
md down the collected works of Plutarch,
ilthough Schneidewin does not hesitate
lo attribute those to some imposter
usurping his name. At any rato they
are handily classified, and form a bulky
addition to Ml*. Paley’s translated
specimens. Hero is a brief aud bright
<nving which this writer attaches to King
AreheiauH, when a talkative barher, trim
ming hia Ward, asked him; “How shall
I out it?” “In sileucc;” replied tlie
King. The anecdote recalls one of
Charles TI.’s bragging barbers, who
boasted to him ho could cut His kfnjeaty's
throat when ho would—a boast for
which he was only dismissed; though
for a liko rash vaunt, according to Peter
Cunningham, the barber of Dionysius,
was crucified. To return to Plutarch,
ho tells the following stories, both good
in their way, of Philip Mncedon. In
passing sentence on two rogues he or
dered one to leave Macedonia with all
speed, and the other to try to catch him.
No less astute was his query as to u
strong position lie wished to occupy,
which was reported by tho scouts to be
almost impregnable.
“Is there not,” ho asked, “ovon a
pathway to it wide ouough for an nss
laden with gold ?”
Philip, too, according to Plutarch, is
entitled to the fatherhood of an adage
which retains its ancient fame nlxmt
“calling a spado a spade.” Another
sample of a witty saying from Plutarch’s
miut is that attributed to Themiutoclos,
that his sou was fho strongest man in
Greece.
“For,” said ho, “tho Anthenians,
rule the Hellenes. I rule the Anthenians,
your mother rules me, and you rnleyoitr .
mother. ’’
We must cite one or two other of tho
many e^yupples from Plutarch. This is
attributca by him to Leotycliidas, sou of
Aristo. A snake having twined itself
round a koy, which was declared by the
seers to bo a portent, Leotychidas re
marked! * It would have been more of
a portent if the key had twined itself
round a pnako.” Others.aro qoupeotod
with ornithology, like tho apothegm of
one who plucked tho foutliers from a
nightingale, and finding it a very small
bird, exclaimed: “You little wretch,
you’re nothing but voice;” and again, the
repartee of a Laconian to a mou ol
Sparta, who twitted him with being un
able to stand as long as himself on one
leg. “No!” replied tho other, “but my
goose con. ” ‘ * When Demades, tho ora
tor, remarked that the swords of the
Spartans wore so short that tlioy oould
be swallowed by conjurers, Agis, the
younger king of that name, replied: ‘We
find them qnite long enough to reach the
enemy. ’ ” An anecdote of Strnl»o gives
a vivid picture of the elashiug of a har
per’s performances with the sounding of
a bell for opening of the fish market. All
tho audience vnuished at onae pave a
little deaf man. The harper expressed
himself unutterably flattered at his hav
ing resisted tho importunity of tho fish
boll.
“What!” cried tlie deaf man, “has
the fish bell rung ? Then, I’m off, toq.
Good-bve!”

Fell Against n Sharp Edge.
This la furnished by Mr. Wm, Will,
1613 Frankford Ave., Philadelphia, Pa*
Some time since I icceived a severe in
jury to my hack by falling against the
sharp edge of a marble step, the stone
penetrating it ut least u half inch, and
leaving a very painful wound. After
suffering for a time I concluded to npply
St. Jacobs Oil, and am pleased to say
that the results exceeded my expecta
tions. It speedily allayed all pnin and
swelling, and by continued use made a
perfect cure. I really think it the most
efficacious liniment 1 ever used.
Remedy for Lockjaw.—Let any one
who has an attack of lockjaw take a
small quantity of turpentine, warm it,
and pour it on the wound, no matter
where the wound is, and relief will fol
low in less than a minute. Nothing bet
ter can be applied to a severe cut or
bruise than cold turpentine; it will give
certain relief almost instantly. Tur
pentine is also a sovereign remedy for
croup. Saturate a pioce of flannel on
the throat and chest, and in every severo
case three or four drops on a lump of
sugar may be taken inwardly. Every
family should have a bottle on hand.
