Wemade nae of the material for the first time some twenty years ago in planting on apple orchard, and it was a wonder to those not in the secret what caused the trees to make such a fine growth the first season, and afterward, too, for that matter. This experiment was so satisfactory that when we set ont our new orchard we made a liberal use of this material, with same satisfactory* result. These trials hare proved to our satisfaction that chip dirt is the very best material to mix in the soil vs you plant the tree that can possibly be used for the reason that it nolds moisture, and is full of the elements of plant food; therefore, it promotes a most luxuriant growth. " Itorterlag’’ Sana Animal.. It is a poor practioo to be continually dosing animals. When we see a farmer frequently visiting the drug store for medicines for his stock, tho impression is. that there is something radically wrong in his management. He is the "sick one,’’ and needs the aid of a good physician—some one to show him that sickness rarely happens on a well ordered farm; that clean, warm stables, and plenty of good feed, pure water in abundance, etc., are far better than their opposites, with all tho physio that the jargest drug store can' supply. Nothing is more clearly proved than the importance of care and keeping of the right sort for the health of farm animals and their profitable growth and increase. Sickness will sometimes oome with the very best management, nnd when it does, it is better to employ skilled hands to cure than to “doctor” and “physic,” and perhaps kill the valuable animal, yourself, that under projier treatment might havo been saved at a trifling gxpense.—ripricat/fttrisf. I<rvel I'altarr. This subject is thus discussed by a writer in the A meriinn Former: At the beginning of farm life, in order to learn the most improved methods, I employed a first-class farmer and gardener, fresh from England. He persisted in a mode of cultivation precisely the reverse of wlist I had been used to see—allowing ■» the mangels and Bugar beets, corn, pota toes, pens, beans, cucumbers, melons, tomatoes, cabbages, etc., to go without hilling up. The mangels and sugar- beets stood high above the ground, thy bulbous parts exposed to the sun, mane of the mangels falling over and growing crooked. The part of the ououmbers above ground, which I insisted was rather a root than a stem, and should be surrounded by earth, was It ft entirely exposed to the sun. I thought that the sun would parch the roots and they would break or be injured when the stem should fall from the upright to a horizontal position. The Englishman would have his way, but n greed I should treat some of each- tort of plants in iqy own way. So a few of all sorts were hilled up and fully as well worked in other respects as his, daring the season. For a few weeks mine grew as well as his, and the encum bers, peas, etc., bloomed aa early. After one gathering of encumbers, peas, etc., and the dry season set in, mine perished, while his continued to bloom and bear ; and so of the melons. My potatoes iqade about half a crop of small tnbers, dng ' from dry hills ; bis yielded bounteously of large ones, dng from moist earth, at ■\ the same time in the same Hold. Bo with I the mangels, sngar-bet'WL etc. The L hilled peas, heaps, et*., fa* ml early in the season, and Miocnnjhed to the drouth. Without this ■'experience, it one had said that billing up growing I dnnts would kill them, I should have oined in the response of a million farmers, denouncing it as false and con trary to experience, because they did not perish on the day that they were hilled np. Ever since I have avoided hilling and ridging about growing plants, and cultivated the soil os levelly us pos sible. Cnrr of Ewe. suit l.anth*. ,T. £. Killelirew. in his work on “Hheep Husbandry," gives the follow ing advico in regard to the feeding o' ewes and lambs : While a owe is suck ing her lamb her food should be of the most generous character. Good olover or blue grass pastures should be supple mented with bran, oats, corn or meal, and, in fact, if good lambs are expected, and early ones, the dam must be ex tremely well fed, as the food of the lamb must be derived from the mother, and if she has not the food she cannot . be a free milker. Roots mixed with ’ bran, oats, oilcake meal or grain will aid.materially in the flow of milk. Tea straw is a favorite food for ewes, and it has more nourislunent in it than any other kind of bay, as will be seen by a reference to the analysis. As soon as tho lamb is large enough to notice other food besides its dam’s milk it should be tempted to eat a little wheat bran sprinkled in a trongh, such as is men tioned in a previous chapter, or somo bright, sweet clover hay will bo apt to get a nibble. After it once begins to feed this way you can make • it weigh heavier and grow more rapidly than it would on its dam’s milk alone. A lamb that is pushed heavily by au abundance of food for the first three months will show itself by producing large, vigor ous sheep, while, on the contrary, if it is stinted of food for that time it be comes dwarfed and will never mako a good healthy sheep. All animals whose maturity is hastened will lie stronger, thriftier and longer lived thun one that hus been half starved in its growth. Be sides, they make far better breeders. Should the pasture be bordered by a corn field it is a good plan, and one that is followed by many good fanners, to make a hole under the fence large enough to admit tho lamb, and yet with hold the sheep, into the corn field, pro vided the corn is tall enough to prevent the lambs from nibbling oil' the bud. They will eat tho voung, tender shoots or suckers and tno bottom blades of fodder that burn up and are lost any way, and will not injure tho corn. In this way they will be materially assisted in their growth and maturity. Should there not be a field or pasture to aid the lambs a pen should be provided adjoin ing tho “run” of the ewes, with au ar rangement to admit the lambs, in wlii.di irougns are provided, kept lined with bran, meal and anything calculated to to aid in pushing the lamb. Ncabby !.*■(. In Poultry. The unsightly disease which affects the legs of fowls, causing them to swell and to become distorted, is due to a mite, a small insect which is similar in appearance to that which causes scab in sheep. It is roundish oval and semi- traaspr.rent, about onc-eight hundredth of an inch in length, appearing; when igcified. 400 diameters, about half an inch long. It die scales from the lege of s diseased fowl ore beneath the mi- eroscope a number of theee mites may be found between them. Beneath the eoalee there are s spongy, scabby growth, in whioh the eggs and pnpe of the mites are to be seen in great nnmbere. The pupie are very similar in sme to the mature mites, but are very much smaller, appearing when viewed with the above- mentioned power, about one-tenth of an inoli in length. The disease being of a similar character to the scab in sheep, ! or the mange in dogs and cattle, it may be cured by the same treatment. If this disagreeable affection is suffered to re main in the flook while one fowl is troubled with it, it will certainly spread, as tho mites will burrow beneath tho scales of the other fowls. If preean'ioris were generally need the parasite could soon been exterminated. It should be made a disqualification at poultry shows for fowls to be affected with scabby legs or feet iu any degree whatever, /or we know that several poultry yards are not free from this disease, and whenever affected fowls are sent out disease goes vith them.—American Agriculturist. llontM’holil Hint*. Grained wood should be washed with eold tea. In boiling eggs put them in boiling water. It will prevent the yoke from coloring black. f Ceilings that have keen smoked by a kerosene lamp should be washed off with soda water. Cream that is to be whipped should not lie butter croam, lest in whipping it change to butter. Balt extracts the juices of meat in cooking. Bteak8 ought therefore not to bo salted until they have been broiled. Cultivate a tendency to bake things too much rather than too little, until yon learn to strike tho happy mean anil get them just right. To beat the white of eggs quickly put in a pinch of salt. The cooler the eggs the quicker they will froth, Balt cools and also freshens them. When baking cake in a long tin lino the sides and ends as well as tno bottom with stiff white paper ; you can then lift the cake ont without breaking it, nnd can also be perfectly sure to bake it tborongbly in the middle without burn ing it anywhere else. Rtrtim, Haki> Soap.— A lady subscriber asks ns to send a recipe for soap. We hope the following, which we take from an oxchange, will provo satisfactory: Twelve pounds of grease, twelve pounds of sal soda, six pounds of lime,. Put eight gallons of warm water on the lime and soda; let it stand over night, and in the morning pour it carefully on the grease. Put mors water on the lime to fill up with as it boils. Boil two hours. If the grease is very salt it must be freshened. Cut in cakes and leave in the air to dry. Baked Apclp, Pitomno.—One-half pound of the pnlp of apples; one-half pound of loaf sugar , six ounces of but ter ; the rind of one lemon ; six eggs ; puff paste. Peel, core, and cut the apples as for sauce; put them into a stew-pan with fresh water enongh to keep them from burning, and let them stew until reduced to a pnlp. Weigh the pulp and to every one-naif pound add sifted sngar, grated lemon peel and six well-beaten oggs. Beat well to gether ; add the butter melted; put a border of puff paste round the dish and bake for little over half an hour. Do not add the butter till the pudding is ready for the oven. Sufficient for five or six people. Bervtoo Veoetableh.—One of the most delicious ways to 'serve the early vegetables is this: Take new potatoes and yonng lieets, boil nntil done in separate kettles, then slice into the dish in whioh they are to be put on the table; first put a layer of potatoes, 3 >rinklcd with pepper and salt and ttle lumps of butter, then a layer of beots, treated in the same way, and so on until tho dish is full, then pour over all a little sweet cruam, or milk, if yon cannot get criam, only a little, not enongh to make a sloppv sort of dish, but so that there will bo a few spoonfuls in the bottom of the dish, which every one will wish for. Tills, with a tender, juicy beefsteak, cooked on a wire gridiron over coals, a tempting salad, good brood and butter and iced tea, with some very light dessert, makes a dinner for which one mav be thankful. Green Goohkueuiiieh ion Tarts.—Fill very clean, dry, wide-necked bottles with gooseberries picked the same day, in dry weather, and just before they have attained their full size. Wrap a little hay round each bottle, and thon set them up to their necks in a boiler of cold water, which should bo brought very gradually to boil; a little hoy must be put in the bottom of tbo boiler, and tbe bottles fixed firmly. Let the fruit simmer gently until it appears shrunken and perpectly scalded, then take out tbe bottles, and fill up as many as you can quite full with some of the cooked gooseberries—it is generally necessary to sacrifice one of the bottles in doing this, taking care not to break tho fruit. Directly tho bottles are full of goose berries, pour boiling water into tbe bottles up to tbo brims, else they will mildew. Tie bladder over the tops im mediately, und beep the bottles in a dry, cool place. When tho gooseberries are used, pour off tbo greater part of the water, and add tho same sugar as for frosh fruit, of whioh they ought to have the same flavor and appearance. Pre pared in this way, gooseberries me per fectly wholesome, and will keep until tho fruit comes in again. Marguerite, the Young Oueon of Italy. She is the only royal person who sees ■ her friends in the street. She has one ! of the most winning aud sympathetic of I faces. She is a blonde, has large blue i eyos, a lovely month, and, without the aid of art, has a fair, fresh complexion. She is net an insipid blonde ; she lias character in her face, tempered with a gent'e and lively expression.

Cirtwn Characteristic* at Raw Mca Netad ht Their Praarlcecaeca. Avarice, it has been justly said, ia a weed that will grow in barren soil; it is generally ft und in those who have few good qnalitiee to reoommend them. One old writer says it may be termed the grand sepulcher of all the other passion*, aa they suoceesively decay. But unlike other tombe, it is enlarged by repletion and strengthened by sge. Moore, the poet, uptake of it as That latest folly of man's sinking ago. Which, rarely venturing in the vsn of life, / While noNer passions wage their heated strlf.', Oomcs skulking I ant, with selflahnvss am* fear, And dim, collecting lumber in the roar. The lives of ill tbo celebrated misers will be found much the same in these particulars: They were very seldom married, they wero unsocial, though sometimes fond o! animal pets; they maintained existence on food, the quan tity and qnality of which a dog would havo objected to; they were very seldom stirred to tho slightest degree of be nevolence, and they noarly always dis appointed tho expectations of their heirs. Bnt there are some exceptions to these general rules. Barrow, iu his travels, mentions having seen a Dutch miser near the Cape of Good Hope. He was stall old man, with a thin, sallow visage, and a Iteanl of dingy black, that, extending to the eyes, whero it met the straggling hair of the forehead, obscured the face like a visor. Living with him as his wife was an old Hot tentot woman, nearly 100 years old. Avarice seemed to run in the family, for he hail a brother and sister who lived several miles off among the mountains who were equally parsimonious. In tho beginning of this centnry there wss an eld man named W. Fuller, who lived with his son in a hut, consisting of two chandlers and » sitting room. Their allowance of food was a mutton chop apieco, and a pint of porter between the two, for tho day—thu last being a luxury they could not go with out, proving that appetite was stronger than will. They went to bed in the dark. Old Fuller ,w*s a tmnker, and re tained his clerks on low Salaries by promising them legacies when he died. But the promises wore not fulfilled ; he wrote his will on tho back of an old letter, and loft all hta property, worth 81,000,000, to his son. That the hoarding of money has given actual pleasure to these poor wretches there can be no doubt. It stands to reason it must be so, or they would hardly throw up their interost iw both worlds: "First starved in thia, thru ilamiiM in that to oomo." .Teremj Tnvlpr, a famous miser, used to say if hia Successors hod as muoh pleasure in spending his property as he had in hoarding it up they need not oomplain of their hard lot in the world. Mention is made of a miser in Venice whose poise quickened as in a fotW on hearing a largo sum of money men tioned. He was a Catholic, ana made the sign of the cross with a gold coin. He had chests full of gold, each named after some saint, and decorated them on saints’ days. When dying, he requeeted the spectators to withdraw from tho room a few moments. They did so. On returning they found the old man lying dead on a large bag, both his hands clutching a piece of gold. This calls to mind tbe case of Henry Beaufort, car dinal of Winchester, who cried out on his death bed : “Fye, will not death be hired, and will money do nothing? Must I die that have such groat riohes? If the whole realm of England would save my life, I am able, either by poj^ icy to get ft, or by riches to buy it I* - The death of the miser Foscoe, who amassed an immense fortune by usury and taking every advantage he could of the necessities of the unfortunate, was dramatically appropriate. For reasons of safety he dug a holo in tho ground and secreted his treasure there; he made a trap door with a spring look, and would go down daily to gloat over bis savings. He lived a solitary life, but one day liis neighbors remarked that he had not been seen for an nnusn- ally long time. Thcv mode search for him through the house, the woods, and in tho ponds, but failed to find him. Years afterward, when workmen were repairing tbe house, they came across the secret cave in the cellar. On open ing it they found Foscoo’s remains amid heavy bags of untold treasures ; he had died with tbe object of bis devotion. The methods by which misers have accumulated their huge fortunes are much tbe samo ; it was by saving, rather thun by muking money, that they be came rich, Daniel Dancer dined on two or three boiled oggs and warmed np his cold pancakes that were left over by carrying them in his pocket. Elwes, who was worth nearly $1,000,000, carried old bodes in bis pocket, taking them out to his farm to boused as fertilizers. Another miser used to boil a piece of beef and fourteen hard dumplings on Sunday; that would be tbe allowance of food for himself and sister for the week. Dancer saved on soap, never using it or towels; ho washed himself in tho river and dried himself in the sun. Ho used to beg a pinch of snuff, putting it in a box he carried with him. This he exchanged for a farthing candle, which lasted until the box was again filled. Ho used an old meal sack for a shirt and a bundle of straw for a pillow. Bnt he was singularly generous to bis dog, to whom be allowed a pint of milk a day. He efted worth 8500,000. There was a celebrated miser named Andley; who lived in the time of the Stuarts and whoso keenness as a business man was remarkable. He was origin ally employed as a clerk at six shillings a week, and in t.he course of a few years, by dint of tho economical practices that come natural to persons of his ilk, had accumulated sufficient to engage in speculation. His habit was to but bud d bts for a trifle and afterward com pound with the insolvent. An anecdote will illustrate his method : A tradesman, Miller, owed a merchant named White £200. and seeing no other chance to ob tain it (Miller being insolvent), sued for the amount. Andley goes to White and offers him £40 for the debt; the merchant accepts. Then the miser goes to Miller and obtains his quittance of the debt for £50 U)ton the condition that, he pays for tho accommodation. The insolvent signed tho contract, which he thon,"lit was offered in a benevolent spirit. The contract was that he should pay to AudJey, twenty years from that time, one penny consecutively doubled, on the fiist day of twenty consecutive months; failing, to pay a fine of £500. Miller, acquitted of his debt, arranged with his creditors and commenced hnsi- ness. Two or three years afterward the miser began to call for his installments, and Miller found on calculating that on the first of the twentieth month he would have to pay £2,880; so he refused the payment of his liond and gave Aud- ley the £500 forfeit. Vandille, a remarkable French miser, was at one time the mayor of Boulogne, and while in that position partly maia- tained himself by being Bilk taster gen eral at the market; while munching a •crap of bread he wonldjparteke of theee gratuitous draughts. He always trav eled to Paris on foot, and, fearful less he should bo robbed, took good cafe to never have more than throe pence ia his pocket; if he needed more money he begged on the road. By such methods, and lending money to the French Gov ernment, he niado a fortnne of £800,000, sprang from a single shilling. During the very ookl winter of 1.734 he found it necessary to purchase some extra tael, and endeavored to lieat down tbs WoW merchant in his prieo. The man drove off, and Vandille stolen a few logs from the back of the cart. In hastening awgy with them ho became overheated and contracted a bail fever. He sent for tha surgeon, telling him he wanted to be bied. As tho surgeon charged half a Uvre, whioh was considers <1 too much, a barber was ceded in, who agreed in open a vein for threepence. "Bnt, friend,” said the cautions miser, "bo* often will it be requisite to bleed me F.’ “Three times,” replied the barber. “Three times! And, pray, what quan tity of blood do you intend to take from me at each operation 7” “About eight ounces each time.” “That will be nine- pence ; too much I too much 1 I know a cheaper way : take the whole twenty- four ounces at once, and that will save me sixpence.” He saved the sixpence, but lost his life. Sir William Smyth, of BedtordaUn, a wealthy miser, agreed to “give slxjy guineas if Dr. Taylor, a celebrated qccu- fist, restored him to sight The doctor succeeded so well that Sir William was able to read and write Ml the rest Of Ms life without spectacles. But he pro tended at the time of his cure that he only had a glimmer of his surroundings, and on that account suoceeded in get ting the fee reduced to .020, one-third of the original price. A Bt. Petersburg miser, who lived in the tiino of Catharine II., resorted to a peculiar method to save a little money. He had a largo mastiff dog to watch his house, and trained him to bark and howl all night. Finally the dog di«d Not caring to go to the expense c chasing another, the old man pert* a dog himself and went almut the morning and evening, barking and ho' ing in imitation of his former protector. This man lived in one damp room, in a largo dilapidated old bouse, and we are told that liis cellar contained casks of ;old and packages of silver. Ms gas ‘ o richest man in Russia. In striking contrast to tho mean char acteristics which seem to oome natural to the miser there are two aneodotsu, that have been handed down to na, of the hpoevolcnce of extremely avaricious men. Borne years ago there lived in Marseilles, France, a miser named Quo! He was noted for his parsimony, had al ways lived in the city, was hated by grown persons and stoned by the boys. He died very wealthy. HU will read as follows; “Having observed from my in fancy that the poor of Marseilles are ill supplied with water, which can only be procured at groat price, I have eheer- niUy labored the whol9 of my life to procure for them this great blessing, and I direct that the whole of my prop erty shall be expended in building an aqueduct for their use.” Borne years ago it waspropoaed to build Bethlehem Hospital, London, und contributions were requested from the rich as well as the poor. A eolUotor in a dirty part of the city heard a man scolding his servant for throwing away a match, only one end of whioh hsd been expect muoh success, snd was agreeably surprised to receive a cheek for four hundred guineas. He then told the old man of his thoughts, who replied; “Your surpriso at receiving this sum is occa sioned by my ogre of a thing of such little consequence ; but I keep my house and save my money in my own way. My parsimony enables me to bestow more liberally on charity. With regard to benevolent donations, you may al ways expect most from prudent people who keep their own accounts ana who pay attention to trifles.” Dean Bivift was once invited by a great miser to dine at his house with s large party. The famous satirist, being re quested to give grace, said: “Tliaukn fur this miracle I—this Is no less Than to cat mum in the wilderness. Where ruglug hunger reign’d we’ve found relisl And seen that wondrous thing, a piece of hoof. Hero chimneys smoko that never smok’d before, And wo’vc all ate, where we shall eat no more.” —Jtrniiklyu Fogle.

Eni lisli pronnnoiation has not been investigated in all respects, nnd after philology ban done its duty muoh that is recommended by Webster, Worcester, Bmart and Walker will have to be abandoned.
