FOR THE FAKW AND HOME. 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.— Rural Lome. I’ll'kliift mid Morlng Anplrl. 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 World. 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. notisehnltl Hint*.

It was considered very honorable to be a soldier in ancient Rome, much more honorable than to be a mechanic or laborer. Every soldier took a most solemn oath, which was called a “sacrament.” He swore never to desert his standard, to submit his own will to the co 1 mand of liis leader, and to sacrifice his life for the empire. The soldiers were well paid, but very strictly disciplined.

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. — Times.

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 met Dr. A. T. Hudson of this city.

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 state of preservation. Mr, Bard’s will soon be all right again.
