Protection I . Fruit.
For mildew on grape vines, dust on
flowers of sulphur, cither early in the
morning while ihe dew is on, or after a
shower while the foliage is wet. For th»
grape vine beetle, shaking tho vino early
in tho morning, will bring them to the
ground, when they can very readily be
destroyed. Spreading a cloth or piece
of paper under the vines will aid material¬
ly in catching them. Slacked lime
sprinkled over the foliage will destroy
the larvae. Piant-lice of all kinds can be
destroyed by dipping tho plant or part
affected into kerosene nnd sour milk,
one part kerosene to three of milk.
Sprinkling with strong tolmcco water is
also recommended. For the strawberry
leaf roller the wisest plan, if they
have become firmly established, is to
plow under niter the fruit is taken oil
and set out n new planting. If taken in
hand early cno igh h md-p eking may
destroy them, but it requ rose ins derable
care. For rust, either with the currant
or gooseberry, mulching with coal ashes
is strongly recommended. 1 have never
had any trouble on this score, ns I ha"'e
made it a rule to tfluleh well around
th se plants soon after setting out.—

Hand picking should always be the
rule for winter apples. Varieties that
ripen irregularly ought to be gathered
accordingly. Generally speaking, the
later sorts should be left on the tree until
late, so as to give them opportunity to
fully color up. Beforo picking begins it
is well to have a suitable place prepared
in the orchard or near by for the tempor-
nry storing of the fruit, unless there are
two sets of hands for sorting and pack-
ingas fast as the fruit is gathered. Ap-
pics keep longest if f~cc from atmospheric
moisture when taken from the trees.
Small baskets holding half a bushel each
and suspended from a hook on the lad-
der are more convenient and less liable
to bruise the fruit than bags.
Once gathered, the apples should lie
securely protected from sun nnd storms
until they are sorted. Many farmers who
have fruit houses delay Sorting and flack-
ing until the approach of coi l weather,
The best method is to sort the fruit im-
mediately, and lay all that is sound care¬
fully into tight barrels, shaking the bar¬
rels gently two or three times during the
process of Ailin', to insure the apples
packing closely ; they may then be tight¬
ly headed, with the head sufficiently
pressed nnd secured to avoid all
ment of the apple.s inside the barrel.
Right here is generally the neglect. Tiie
barrels should be placed on their sides
a nd not stored away until ireezing
weather.
The Sin rest Way to Hive Bee*.
Allen Pringle says: “The safest and
best way to hive a swarra of bees is, of
course, the way I myself do it. Every
old bee-keep r lias the ‘best plan,’ and
here amine. I, ‘of course,’keep all my
queens (lipped. I sny ‘of course,’ be-
cause I think every first-rate bee-keeper
clips his queens, the non-clippers to the
contrary, notwithstanding. When n
swarm is seen to be issuing I take a little
wire cage to the swarming colony, and usu¬
ally find the queen just in front of the hive
trying to fly. The open end of the wire
cage is put over her, when she immedi¬
ately crawls up into it and is shut in.
Then as soon ns the swarm is all out I
c ose the en innce of the old colony and
turn it round facing thc opposite direc¬
tion and two or three feet from where it
stood. I then place inyhive for the new
swarm on tho old stand aud put the
caged queen in it on top of the frames
under the quilt, and the work is done.
This occupies from three to five min¬
utes. By this time another swarm or
two may be issuing, when they can be
treated in the same way on the double
quick. By this short and easy method I
have hive l as many as eight or ten
swarms in about fifteen minutes. If three
or four are coining out at once, and you
have no tents to put over them to catch
them, you can manage them alt as above
alone rightly if you “look alive.” Run
around to the swarming colonies and
cage the queens as above directed, turn-
mg each colony around and placing it off
two or tliree feet, and as soon as you get
round th“m all, go back and begin plac¬
ing your hives for the new swarms on the
old stands as rapidly as possible. If you
have your hives ready and handy by, as
every bee-keeper ought to have, you can
go over half a dozen in this way in an
almost incredibly short time, even though
they ail come out at once.
H. n Manure.
No one who has but ji small garden, or
even a flower bed, should be wasteful of'
the manure from the fowl riio.f< fbYwheo
properly manipulate'] judiciously
applied to vitiation, the benefits do-
- r.ved from its application are very sat s-
factory indeed. When it is known that
hen manure r inks with A1 guano as a
fertilizer, it does seem to us strange that
more attention is not paid to collecting
and applying it.
The one essential in keeping hen man-
uresoas to reulizj the greatest good
fromit is to keep it. dry, under cover,
where the rains and sun will not destroy
nnd remove its valuable, though volatile,
quality. The poultry house should be
strewn w ; th loam, pulverized clay, or
sand as often as is necessary to preserve
cleanliness and to absorb tile moistuie.
Dry street dirt will readily act as an ab¬
sorbent, as it is very thorougly pulver¬
ized by the wheels of carriages. Every
week clean up the floor of the house,
putting the manure into barrels, which
should be removed to som? convenient
shed where the contents can be kept dry.
After the m inure lias been removed give
the floor a good sprinkling with the dry
road du«t, to receive future droppinga.
By continuing this plan you will, at the
end of « few months, hnvo quito a col¬
lection of the richest kind of manure.
If you have no garden or lawn, or if
yeu have plenty of other fertilizers, you
can sell your h n manure for forty or
fifty cents a bushel to tho tanners; hut
in this enso, instead of being mixed with
earth, it must be kept pure. Sums
poultrymen derivo quite a revenue lYota
their sales of the dropping* for tanning
purposes, and find it convenient to havs
shelves arranged under the perches,
which are regularly scraped every morn¬
ing. Thirty or forty cents a bushel is
the prico commonly paid, and tho in¬
come from this source goes quit* a way
towards defraying the cost of the grain
consumed by tho fowls. Hen manure
must not he allowed to decompose or
ferment beforo being sent to the tanner,
as its value in preparing leather depends
on its being crude. Farmers and gar¬
deners generally pay about $1 per bar¬
rel for lien mauure for a fertilizer. This
price presupposes a very little dry earth
mixed with the droppings, as will gen-
trull be the cose, but not much, the
manure being nearly pure .—Poultry

IJrntif Vlnr* From Cnttlngi.
No kind of wood will more easily grow
from the eye than tho grape vine. For
this reason the rapid propagation of new
varieties is a very easy matter. The
nurserymen use single-eye cuttings in
greenhouses, and this is a very good way
wherever bottom heat can furnished.
Hut all this trouble and expense are not
needed, provided the right course is
taken nnd enough buds or-eyes left on
cutting. Even nurserymen do not
rely entirely on the single-eye method,
It is only used, in fact, for new vari-
cti s, when wood is scarce and it is de¬
sirable to increase the vines as fust as
possible. Cu:tings set in tha open
ground should be prepared early in tho
spring, leaving two or, at most, three
‘‘ye 3 on a piece. Tho lower part must be
‘ u t 8 < i uare at the bulge where a bud
' ias f° r,I 1 ed. Then remove tilts lowest
bu(1 with a 8,lar P 80 a8 to a
cl( ' an cut. Leave the top eye just at the
surface of the soil, which must be pocked
-'‘round Ihe lower part very closely. Piant
1,1 rows thr,;e feet apart, and run the tul-
tivator through once a week to keep
weeds down. Plant cuttings six to eight
inches apart in the row, and keep down
weeds with the hoe. If the season is
fairly favorable four-fifths of these cut¬
tings will make strong-rooted plants
by the first of July, There is
no need of being discouraged about those
that at this time show no signs of put¬
ting forth a shoot. Pull one up and
you will find tho bottom calloused and
line, white, thread-like roots from it. In
such cases the shoot will us .ally start
from the eye below the surface. Where
the first eye starts and grows, the one
below it grows also. In the fall or next
spring one of these sprouts must lie cut
0 fj anc q the othcr trimmed down to a
single eye. By this method, farmers
and itliers can easily and cheaply sup-
pjy themselves with as many grape
vines an they wish,and of the best varie-
ties. Four-fifths of all the grape vine
growth of the previous season must be
cut off this full or next spring, and it
can be usually had for nothing. A few
very hard-wooded and close-jointed
grape vines do not root easily. Eumelan
nnd Delaware are samples of these; but
it is only necessaiy to take a little
longer cutting and plant at an angle of
forty-five degrees in the ground, This
will keep the bottom of the cutting
within reach of the air and warmth. No
manure is neccsary, iu fact, it is posi-
tively hurlful. Its heating forces the
buds too rapidly, and may cause the
bottom of the cutting to rot instead of
puttiug forth roots.— Cultivator.

Light, Coins.
Thc following notice lias been posted
on the bulletin-board of the sub-
Treasury :
“On nnd after August 1, 1886, all
gold coin below legal weight will, under
instructions received from the Secretary
of the Treasury, be stamped “light, ” as
the same is presented at the sub-Treas¬
ury.”
The necessity for this new rule, as ex¬
plained at the sub-Treasury, is this:
There is a law which fixes tho coin
“limit of tolerance”—the point to which
coins may be worn or abraded and st 11
be worth their face value—at one-half of
1 per cent. This means that when a
gold dollar in tho course of its use loses
one one-half cent of its value in weight
it ceases to be worth $1 as a legal tender t
and is worth only its weight as gold mer¬
chandise. Until about four years ago it
w r as a rulo of the officers at the New
York sub-Treasury to stamp all coins
outside of the limit of tolerance with a
letter “L,” signifying that they were of
lightweight,
Bat depositors raised an outcry against
the multilation of national coins, and an
order came from Washington directing
the sub-treasury here to quit its si snip¬
ing business. The result was that,
though light-weight coins were once re¬
jected at the sub-treasury, they still kept
coming in a regular stream. The same
abraded coin would be offered over and
over again four or five times during one
week. There was nothing to distinguish
their light weight, and often they were
detected only because the clerks of the
sub-treasury, with their delicate touch,
the result of years of practice, could de¬
tect thc lightness of weight, when to an
ordinary business man thc coin would
have nothing in its appearance out of thg
ordinary. Often it happened thatj one
bug of gold coins tho ubragYjft of tho
pieces will make a t^j-eff |i 5 or more
under the full weight value, though the
loss to each^pfij^ j 8 scarcely perceptible.

Recently Dr A. T. Hudson extracted
a splinter one inch long snd one hand eighth of
of an mb in thickness from the
James Bard of trinity county. Mr.
Bard is un old soldier nnd served on tho
Union side during the civil war. He
participated in un engagement in July,
1803 and while in the net of aiming his
musket a bullet from the enemy’s ranks
struck the st ck of the musket nnd shat¬
tered it. He was wounded supposed in the that palm the
of Jiia hand, and it was
bullet lmd lodged in the flesh. The
wound Boon healed, and for a long time
caused no trou tie or pnin. After serv-
mg _ through the war w Mr. _ Bard , came to
California and settled in Trinity county,
; where lie lias since resided,
Of late his hand has caused him con-
sidcrable trouble, especially when stoop-
ing to pick up anything, and he was ad-
vised by a local physician io have an ope-
ration performed upon it, but be did not
feel able to stand the expense. Mr. Bard
takes considerable interest in Grand
Army matters. He is very patriotic, and
has a right to be, in aa much as he parti-
cipatcd in fifty-two battles and skiiniislt-
es during the late war. He was bound to
attend the encampment at San Francisco,
and to raise the requisite funds sold a
cow for $50, While in San Francisco he

magnanimously offered to perform the
operation gratuitously if Mr. Bard would

ingly came. Dr. Hudson re-opened the
wound and probed it, and instead of
finding a bullet, ns was expected, found
the splinter above described. It was a
piece of tlie old musket stock, and had
remained imbedded in the man’s flesh
for tw enty-three years, and was in a good band

will soon be all right again. He is very
