FOE Tin: FARM ANI> HOME. The Apple Orchard, Josiah 1loupes says Id the New York Tribune: Ono limy apply fertilizers to the soli and yet neglect the trimming, washing the bark, and destruction of injurious insects. I consider all of very nearly equal importance. A top- dressing ol any good, rich compost during autumn will pay the owner of an old orchard as surely as if applied to his wheat-held or potato-patch. And yet the farmers allow the trees to "run out,” to use a common expres¬ sion, from ignorance or parsimony. As to breaking up the tough sod of an old orchard to infuse health in the trees, some difference in judgment ex¬ ists, but I never could see the use of destroying the roots, when equally good results may be gained by simply scattering manure over the surface. Let farmers try the latter and mark the result; ther, follow up the good work next spring by heading back the tops of all old mossy trees, and apply a coat of alkali in weak solution to the bark of the body and larger branches. 1 like whitewash for this purpose. Greed of Cows. It is hardly necessary to tell anyone, says tho Live-stock Journal, that the domestic cow is a great feeder, and that this is especially true of cows that are great milkers. The appetites of domestic animals are largely what years of feeding for certain ends has made them, and they may, therefore, be regarded as in a measure abnormal. This is shown clearly enough by the great milk and butter tests, wtiich have shown that cows can be system¬ atically overfed up to a point where death quickly follows. This being the case, it is necessary in feeding cows to be careful that feed of a stimulating, concentrated character be administered regularly and judiciously. The over- indulgence which a cow will practice at times, when allowed unrestricted access to grain or apples, is usually due not only to the greatly developed appetite induced by an abnormally active udder, but far more to a want of regularity in feeding and the neglect of the feeder to meet the demands of such an appe¬ tite as they develop. With proper feeding, cows can be trained to take care of themselves with any kind of food before them. Even with apples, than which no kind of food is more dangerous to cows when indulged in to excess, this statement holds good, and when properly trained, being fed at lirst moderately and the quantity gradually increased, they seem to learn to measure the qnantity their stomachs can manage, and may be as safely trusted in the orchard as any other animal. In the case of bovines the trouble arises from the unnatural distension of the rumen by habitually overcrowding it with coarse food in an "ffort to satisfy the appetite in¬ duced by any great draft upon the system. Thus stretched, it will hold more of a concentrated food than the animal can digest before fermentation beci mes active enough to be injurious. It may be stated here that, fed judic¬ iously, apples are a healthful, safe, find an excellent milk producing food. Carc of Cellars, A great mistake is sometimes made in ventilating oellars and milk-houses. Tlie object of ventilation is to keep the cellars cool and dry, but this object of¬ ten fails of being accomplished by a common mistake, and instead, the cel¬ lar is made botli warm and damp. A cool place should never be ventilated, unless the air admitted is cooler than tho air within, or is at least as cool as that, or a very little warmer. The warmer the air, the more moisture it holds in suspension. Necessarily, the cooler the air, the more this moisture is condensed and precipitated. When a cool cellar is aired on a warm day tlie entering air being in motion ap, pears cool; but as it fills the cellar, the cooler air with which it becomes mixed chills it, tho moisture Is condensed, and dew is deposited on the cold walls, and may often be seen running down them in streams. Then tlie cellar is damp, and soon becomes mouldy. To avoid this, the windows should only be opened at night, and late—the last thing before retiring. There is no need to fear that the night air is ttn- healthl ul—it is as pure as the air of midday, and is really drier. The cool air enters the apartment during the night, and circulates through it. Tlie windows should be closed before sun¬ rise in tlie morning, and kept closed and shaded through tiie day. If the air .of a cellar is damp, it may be thoroughly dried by placing in it a peck of fresh lime in an open box. A peck of lime will absorb about seven pi funds, or more than three quarts of water, and in this way a cellar or a milk-room may soon be dried, even in the hottest weather. A bushel of lime absorbes twenty-seven pounds of water, and still appears as a dry pow¬ der. In thislcondition it will be very useful to spread over the garden or lawn, or around fruit trees, or it may be used for whitewash. This precau¬ tion is often nectssary in the dairy, because of the prevalauce, where air is damp, of mildew, and the various forms of mould. Tlie orange and red kinds of mould especially, which some¬ times form upon the cream, have a most injurious effect upon the butter. —American Agriculturist. ! f shade is excessive about the house thru out some trees. Farm ntul (■nrdfii Nolti, Lack of comfort iu animals hinders fattening. Many primroses are killed every year by over-watering. Shearing lambs in midsummer is claimed by English farmers to greatly inereaso the growth of the carcass. To prevent drain pipes from stop¬ ping up, pour a hot solution of potash into the pipes every months or two. Many horses have a habit of sleep¬ ing standing. It is not a good one, and horses should bo broken of it if possiblo. Trees on the outside of an orchard are usually more prolific. There is more sunlight and air, and the roots have a freer range. Churning sweet cream is not con¬ sidered a good method by many lead¬ ing authorities—the better plan being to allow the cream to ripen somewhat. Potatoes dug in clear weather an«l thoroughly dried in the sun will keep in much better condition in the bins than ihose that have not been sun- dried. Several years since a gardener dis¬ covered that by planting his squash seeds in earth that had a layer of coal ashes above and below it the vines were not molested by cutworms. A cool, deep and rich soil is indi- spensable to success iu the culture of herbaceous plants and bulbs. ks- I pecially is this true of lilies and other | bulbs that are usually set out at this i season of the year. Don’t put rotten potatoes into the cellar. Dou’t put so much corn into one bin that it can’t dry thoroughly. Don’t put uncured cornstalks into the barn unless you want a tire. Don’t try to feed a bull that you don’t need. An Ohio farmer says he killed every potato beetle in a Held “alive with them,” by sprinkling once with a mixture made in proportion of 5 pounds each of “slacked lime” and copperas, and 20 gallons of water. “Beside, it benefits the plants.” Plantain, dandelion and other weeds in a lawn may be destroyed by placing a little sulphuric acid with a stick in the crown of each plant. The acid should be carried in an open-mouthed bottle with a long handle, so that lingers and clothes are protected. Household Mints.

Apple Charlotte —Line a buttered loaf tin with thin slices of home-made bread, dip the edges of the bread in white of egg and fill the space with a smooth apple sauce seasoned with lemon rind and nutmeg, or cinnamon-, cover the top with strips of bread, put a small quantity of butter on top and bake one hour. Broiled Sweet Potatoes —Raw and boiled potatoes are served in this man- ner: Cut the raw potatoes in thin slices, brush melted butter over them and also over the wire broiler to pre¬ vent their sticking to it; broil them a dark brown ; boiled sweet potatoes need to be but slightly broiled, just enough to warm through and at the ' same time to show the marks of the broiler.

The American boy, however, w },„ n j, e Joes take a trade, goes straight on to the top of the ladder. It seems as if our boys physicians would rather than be fourth-rate lawyers or earn their living by working with their bands. Only the other day I read in a New York newspaper of a young lawyer in a distant city, whom I knew some years ago when I resided in shat section of the country, wlto literally starved to death. He made scarcely any money, was too proud he to tell of his want, lived as long as could on crackers and water, and was found one day in hi? office dead from lack of nour- ishment. He should never have entered the legal profession, for he had no ability in that direction. Asa farmer or a me- chanic he might have lived a long, useful and successful file, | No boy, of course, should enter a trade unless he feels hunself fitted for it; but, on the other baud, he should not, it seems to me, let the false pride against manual labor, which now prevails to such a wide extent in our country, prevent him from endeavoring to do better work with his hands than in his inmost thoughts he knows he can do with his head —George J.
