It is strange that there is Such an universal practice of crowding. In nine cases out of ten a man who is to set a dozen trees will not give room for more than eight. Many men who are first— r ite farmers in other respects err in (his direction. They may have fifty acres of land upon which there are no trees, but this docs uot keep them from setting them too thickly on the land which they deyote to the orchard. These same men <'an see that if corn is planted too thick ly it will not do well, and that all farm cr ps need sufficient room in order to thrive. But when they come to plant trees, which need light, and air, and room, more than almost anything else which is grown on a farm, they crowd them too near together. And the evil seems as great and frequent to-day as it was twenty years ago. Then there was some excuse for it. Plant ing trees was comparatively anew business on the farm, and the few which had been put out had not grown enough to make the evils of close planting evident. But now the experience of many years throws a light upon the methods of plant ing which was then unknown. Men of the present day have often seen the evils of close planting and ought to avoid th'un. But each farmer seems determined to learn for him self, and pay a needless tuition in the school of experience. The trees are all quite small when thev are set, and sufficient allowance is not made for their rapid growth. When taken from (lie nursery it seems as if twenty feet apart would give plenty of room. Some farmers, who mean to be on the safe side, give twenty five feet; a very few allow from thirty to thirtv-five. For a while twenty feet answers well enough, but in a few years it is evident that the trees are too near together, and that they will all be injured by excessive crouding. In soin'.' cases farmers have cut out everv other tree, and thus left a good orchard with the trees just about fir enough apart. But this is an expensive operation and in volving a great waste. It is much better to take plenty of room at fust. I'or the ordinary varieties at least thirty-three feet between toe trees should bo allowed, and for the larger kinds forty’ feet would be still better. If it is ob jected that this makes an orctur luok too bare and naked, it may be re p'led that permanent benefit is more to be desired than a merely tempo ary good, aud that it is better to sacrifice a iiitle in the appearand of an orchard new than it is to j make it look well in the present aud seriously impair its future val ue. Besides, if the appearance seems to be of vital importance, all possible benefits in this direction can be secured, with no permanent injury to the orchard, by setting, the trees thirty-five or forty feet : apart and planting dwarf pears or; peach trees between. Die standard trees would not be injured an.i the orchard would cer tainlv look oetter for this addition. The dwarfs would come to maturi ty produce their fruit, and pa-s away j before the trees which were to remain would attain their full '"■g, But the temporary trees] would have answered their purpose and also have produced a liberal quanity of fruit. It seems as if this plan (which is very far from being anew one and for which the writer makes no claim of originality) was worthy of a trial by all who are a bout setting trees and who are sure that they shall not be satisfied with the appearance of the orchard if they are put at proper distance apart. E. Alfalfa. This comparativly new clover, known as alfalfa, is lucerne, slight ly modified by the climate of Cali fornia and China. It is a perennial plain n.uv ; t continues more than two years anu m of New York, fields of it can be seen where the seed was sown over fifty years ago. The common red clover is biennial shorter lived, and therefore better suited for a system of short rotations Alfalfa is eqtr ally as hardy as red clover and is peculiarly adapted to rough hill side lands, rocky, etc, that cannot be cultivated to advantage, the long tap root winding among the rocks until it finds moisture and once es tablished it improves every year. Sow the seed broadcast cn very clean land as soon as possible, from ten to twelve pounds of seed to the acre. At all events fit immediate ly a half acre or an acre of clean land near the barn and give it a lair test as green food for both hor ses and cattle. There is no risk however, in sowing a hundred or more acres. Never pasture it or cut it closely the first year, but let it grow enough in the fall to make a good winter protection for the roots. Do not pasture it the first year when the soil is Wet or muddy, The seed of alfalfa, when fresh and good is yellow, glossy, anb heavy. If the seeds are white, it is an indication that they are n ;t ripe. This clover is particularly relished by swine both in summer and when made into hay, which the/ greedily eat during the winter. Try halfan acre and you will sow more next year, The seed can be had of the seedsmen, whose advertisements will be found in this paper. — Fac tory and Farm. Home-made Superphosphates. I place side by side two old flour barrels in one of which I put what ever pones come to hand. In the other I put a bucketful of wood ash es from the house stoves, moisten them well and scatter a few bones on the top, The process is repeated a- the bones and the ashes arc pro duced and at the end of thp year some five or six barrels are the re sult. The mixture should be kept well moistened without being wet enough to allow drainage, and in about eighteen months the small bones will have disappeared altoge ther, and the large ones willl have become soft enough to be easily cr ushed with the shovel while mixing the compost. The result is a man ure—which is far too powerful to use without mixing it with at least ten times its bulk of muck, or some fertilizing earth, and which can then be applied with excellent effect es pecially to turnip hind. I am of opinion that it is almost, if not, quite as valuable as many of the purchas ed superphosphates and the plan is worth adopting, if it were only to get rid of dangerous a-bes and un sightly bones. — Farmer's Advocate- Fann B*rverJ>s. Do not keep more live stock on your farm than you can keep well. House all things as much as pos sible—animals, utensils and crops. Sell when you can get a good price, and do not store for rats and speculators. The more comfortable you can keep your animals the more they will thrive. A good cow is a valuable ma chine—the more food she properly digests the greater the protit. A few roots daily to all the stock are as welcome as apples to boys aud girls. Replace all the bars where you pass often by strong gates, and then wonder that you didn’t do so be-< fore. Although, in draining land thor oughly your purse may be drained, yet the full crops that follow will soon fill it again. Always give the soil the first meal. If it is well fed with manure it will feed all else—plants, animals and men. A borrowed tool, if broken, should be replaced by anew < ne, A nice sense of honor in such mat ters is much to be commended- Magxitjde of the Fruit Jxt. ere ST. — Almost every steamer from New York in the autumn and winter months carries five hundred to a thousand barrels of apples to Europe—ninety thousand barrels were landed at Liverpool during last December—and other fruits—pears pea dies, even grapes, are begining to be shipped, refrigerated, the bus° ine>’3 promising large and rapid in crease. It is estimated that we have no less than 4, 500 000, acres of land in fruit containing 112 000, 000 apple trees, 28, 260, 000 pear trees, 112, 2TO, 000 peach ttees,arnl 141, 260, 000 grapevines—carrying the aggregate number of trees and vines to the vast total of 393, 790, 000. The produce for last year is valued at 850 40 ), 000 for apples, sl4 130, 000 for pears $56, 135 000 lor pears, SOO 135 000 for peaches i $2, 118 9000 for grapes, $5 000,000 for strawberries, aud §lO, 432 800 for other fruits—the total of which sums, $l3B, 216, 700 is nearly eq ual to half the value of an average crop of wheat. California alone has 60, 000 acres in vineyards, con taining 43, 000. 000 vines and pro ducing 10. 000 000 gallons of wine per annum. From New York St ate. 1, 500 000 barrels of apples are sent away in a year and tiie value of a single crop in a single county has been at least a million dollars. Let your adult fow’s and the growing stock both b> supplied at this season with all they will eat up clean, twice a day—that is, at noon and evening—of whole . ‘‘T 1, ''racked, corn, and oats or barley. A little Duck wiiv.,.l „ ni g a little admixture of sunflower seeds, are excellene also. The first mesi (in the morning) should be fed warm, of scalded cornmeal mixed with boiled vegetables. This, with the grain at noon and at night, and an occassional feed of ground scraps and green stuff, as cabbage cut up, or onions and turnips chopped fine, will, as a rule, keep your birds in firstrate condition continuously.— Aw. Povltry Yarg. System. —The idea has explored that farmers should know nothing of science. The truth is, the more knowledge, skill and system now applied to farming, the better the crops. Anew day has dawned in the south in regard to agriculture, and all should adopt new systems and plans. More than ever is it necessary for the farmer to live within his means, nor by any m-ans should all expenses excell his in co me. The colonists of Australia have been much annoyed by the depred ation caused by large flocks of kan garoos, which hive bejn starved out ol the interior by severe drought aud are destroying the crops and vegetables in large numbers. Large expeditions have been organized to de-troy and drive off these undesir able visitors and as many as 1000 kangaroos have been killed in a single day. VEGETINE IIEKOWN WORDS.

NATUHAIa SELECTION. Investigators of natural science have demonstra ted beyond controversy, that throughout the ani mal kingdom the “survival of the fittest” is the on ly law tiiat vouchsafes thrift and perpetuity. Does not the same principle govern the commercial pros perity of man .’ An Inferior cannot supercede a su perior article. By reason Of suuperior merit, lir. l’ierce’s Standard Medicines have outlived all oth ers. Their sale in the United States alone exceeds one million of dollars per annum, while the amount exported foots up to several hundred thousand more. No business could grow to such gigantic proportions and rest upon any other basis than that of merit. Golden Medical Discovery Is Alterative, or Blood-cleansing. Golden Medical Discovery Is Pectoral.
