FOR THE FARM ANO HOME. •otto in the fall,arc apt to b_* covered r too deeply. In a dry time the drill wheels sink down into the soil and this carries the tubes with them. Grain seed is thus deposited at a depth of three and sometimes four or five inches. One ami a half inches is ample depth, and it moist one inch is sufficient. If too dry to grew nt this depth, wait until after a rain. The bad effect of too deep cover- in^ wero plainly shown by a device we cnee u*ed on a drill, throwing every other tube ahead of its neighbor. The rcault was that all tho forward tubes might have been empty. They were piled over by the ridges m-de by the ba. k set of toeth, made a feeble growth in the fall, nnd were all killed before spring. The crop all came from the half of the seed drilled in shadow.- BarveHtfiiK Onfott*. “Wh^n the topi* of onion i bej^in to f>et yellow and fall d uvo i; is linn tho bulbs are harvested.

Trees which me nllovd to grow in tall grass rarely have enough vigor to produce flood crons, but a feeble irrowth anil smidl ’ scal.bv and knottv fruit • usually .. accompany each , other. An orchard should, therefore, never stand in a meadow, unless the exhausting influ- cnee of carry ng off the crops of hay is met with copious annual applications of lam manure spread evenly over the whole surface. With a pasture, grazed short with sheep, there will bo lest in- jury to the trees; and additional top- dressing may be employed to keep them in good ® bearing ” condition. Peach trees suffer most lrom neglect, , or from stand- lr.g in thick grass, and cherry trees the least, and next to these strong-growing peur trees. A lawn or ornamental grounds which arc kept closely shaven with the lawn mower, are nearly in the same condition as a closely-grazed ture, and cherry and pear trees may lie planted in suitable positions in such grounds and bear goo 1 crops, provided the lawn receives the annual top-dre-siag of fine manure or compost usually given. Tile owner will, of course, use his tasm and judgment in getting fruit trees in his ornarnentnl grounds, and not make an abrupt or incongruous mixture of fiuit and ornamental trees. The latter will be placed nearer the dwelling, an I m the more conspicuous portions of the gr und*; the fruit trees in tbe lear, and the one pass into the other by natural gradation.— Couutry Gentleman. Remedies for the Apple worm. As a large* sharj of the fiuit, with tho worm still within it, falls to tlio ground, the picking u;i of these windf its and feeding, or otherwise destroying them, or allowing tlmm to be gathered by swine, will naturally suggest itself a3 an efficient method. Manufacturers of vine gai find it profitable to pick up nn .l pros- ail windfalls. They yield a jui"'e which will make vinegar. Tue fact that ture worms search for oruvices ia trunk ia which to spin und undergo their transformations, h >s suggested vidina th^m with artifi iul she fe-s this purpose. Pieces of old carpet, otherwoolcn fabric, about live wide, and long enough to go around trunk and .ap, are fasten? .1 v .tlia stout tuck. 1 ;ti*ic bands should bo applied the last week »n June, nml examined first week iu July, find every ten thereafter. Any worms or cocoous may bo found under them may bo k by running tho bands through a wringer, or by crashing thorn TTithin a few years the Western or- c-hardUts have treated tho apple-worm upon the principle of “nipping in the bud.” As soon as the young fruit is set, the tree ia sprayed witha mix-ure of 1 .uis green and water—one pound of the poison to fifty gallons of water. T.iis is thrown into the tree bv means of a spraying or sprinkling engine, in the hope that a drop of the poisoned water will lodgo in the eyes of the young apples. The newly hatched apple-worm, in eating its way into the interior of the young apple, will be so effectively poisoned, that it must give up its ♦ask. Should the small amount of Paris green remain upon the fruit, it would be too minute to beharm- fu’; but the subsequent rains thoroughly wash it away, so that there can be no¬ danger in using the poison in this man¬ ner. The chief rem dies used in Eng¬ land a e barriers, to prevent the worms from ascending the tree to spin. Heavy paper is fastened around the trunks and Emeared writh tar; this und other means are employ d ns preventatives.— Ameri¬ can Agriculturist. Plowing liitler Green Crops.

Inspectors or “spotters” of the palace car service are constantly travelling over the rail¬ roads to see thut tho passengers receive proper attention. They do not intend to have their connection with tho com- pany known to the railroad officials, but frequently tho latter “drop” to their littlo game and stamp them so that they will be known all along the road. The porter in gathering up the boots and shoes in his car cuts a “nick" in tho hind part of the heel of the shoe be¬ longing to the inspector, so that the other porters will recognize him as soon as they look at his shoos. The Treasury official, in a mysterious way, became aware that a nick in the heel of his shoe would greatly facilitate his comfort and pleasure 1 in travelling, lie tried the cx- pernnent, . , and it worked to his entire satisfaction.
