Pcaa Wilis roa Osaoaxa.???It has been neatly said by a great chemist that the leaves arMlTe lung, of tree, and plant*. They are even more than lungs, they are both lungs and stomach. It follow, that if the le.ve.and roots of trees and garden vegetable* are watered with water containing poisonous sub stances the whole body of the plants, tree, root anatom is liable to become poisonous if used as food. It is well known among lionet* that mixing dye* with water poured around the not* of the flowering plants and ahrobs will speedily change the hue of the flower., ahowfcg that the dyer are taken up In Iheaep and earned to tho remotest parts of the rose- ured with it, what effect will it have on the plant* which people eat daily? Professor E. S. Wayne, the chemist, says that lie has expermented for two years on vegetables over which arsenic and paris green had been spread to kill bisects. He found turnips grown under these circumstances im pregnated with arsenic, but could not find that l>otatoes were affected in the some manner. If urnips will absorb the poison it is not unrea Humble to supposo that radishes and onions will. Lettuce grown where the slop watering is practiced must necessarily be unwholesome, as the obnoxious matter is potired directly on the tender leaves. The Spring^rove avenue gardener* may not be aware that their mode of ???irrigation*??? is dangerous and revolting to their customers, but it is time they gave the subject some thought. In this rainy season pure water is not hard to get. Manaoino a Sitting Hen.???In answer to some inquiries by n farmer's wife, a corrca- tondeut of tho Chicago Inter-Ocean Boys that f the farmer???s wife that thinks it more plague than profit to bother with poultry, will work a little more systematically she will find it both profitable and pleasant. If she will spend two or three days this spriug, before time for setting lions, iu making preparations for their comfort and convenience, it will save her u great many steps and a great deal of unnecessary worry. 1 take it for granted she bus a hen house or soino building she can uso for one. To begin with, have it cleaned and plenty of limo around in the cracks and cor ners. Then don???t leave the hen to find her a nest, but build her one. Now the small hoy comes in good use, if you have one: if not, do it yourself; but don???t neglect it. Use nail kegs, bee-hives, boxes, if not too large; if they are, put a partition in them just large enough for one hen. Make plenty of them so thoy won???t be crowded for nests and be obliged to lay two or threo in o nest. Now got you a couple of bunches of lath the first chance you get and have them ready, mid look for a big dry good* box. about 1 y x feet high, that will hold eight or ten hens if ncces- y. Then some day, when you can spare an hour or so, nail tho lath on top of your box far enough apart for the hen to put her head through to cat nnd drink. Feed them ns best suits yourself; I nail nn oyster cun on tho edge of tho box. Tack n strip of leather on the end of one of the lath with a hole in the end of it to fasten down on a nail driven in tho sido of the box for a door to put the hen* out and in without trouble. Prepare you a dozen covers; tack some piece* of lath together with leuthcr hinges on 5*our nests, or louve them off the nest and hang them up. You will find them very handy. If you set a lien In a nest where other hens are laying, cover her three days until they find another nest. I think it cruel to eover> alien up tight with a board besides being injurious to the eggs. I mnnogo to set two or three ot onetime, marking all the egg* with an ink pencil (lead is apt to rub off) untiug four or fivo eggs tho day of the month in each nest, so I can tell just wheu to look after tho chicks and if any stray egg get into the nests. Do not allow two hens to sit on one nest. If I find two, 1 just slip ono in another nest and cover her with one of my lath cover* until I get tho right number to set. If I do not succeed in setting her, I put her in a box prepared for her and break her from setting. In this way of managing you are not bothered in throwiug setting hens off the uests nor hunting nil over tho farmyard through the weed* far eggs. Tho hen soon learns to expect you on your daily rounds; she will not fly ner struggle when you lift her to look after* her egg*, and by tho time she hatches you will have made up your mind which will make the best mother for vocr chick. 1 will toll tho Farmer???* Wife by-and- bv how I manage chickens alter hatching, and I havo splendid luck. I would like to hear from other farmers??? wives on the subject. istory or Alfalfa.???Five hundred yean or more before the birth of Christ, alfalta, oi lucerne, was well known and prized as a for ago plant in ancient Media. The history o: the discovery of it* value and first cultivation is lost iu tno hazo of bygone ages. From Media lucerne spread to Greece and to the Roman empire. In the days of Cato, Virgil, and Vnrro It was among the cultivated plants, while Columella and other Roman writers on husbandry gave full directions for the cultiva tion of what was then held valuable as a crop for rotation with wheat nnd other cereals, From Rome to France and Spain, whero it re ceived the pleasantly flowing name of alfalfa; thence it accompnuicd those agreeable and right gentlemen, the Spanish discoverers, to make some recompense for the evil* resulting * tin their visits, and lend force to the ndi Tis an ill wind that blows nobody go< In this new and congenial home it grew wild, growing luxuriantly for centurie* on the plains of Bueuos Ayres, until it was supposed to be a plant native to those broad pampas. At the time of thO conquest it was in Mexico a staple crop. From Chili the plant was taken to Cali fornia, where it passed under the name of Chili clover. , , , Since the live stock business of the plains has become so important on industry alfalfa has spread widely through the western states and territories, yet it muy be truly said that it has obtained footing in area* but very limited in comparison with those it will occupy a de cade later. The arid plaint of Kansas, Ne braska, Colorado, and New Mexico have al ready given aatisfaetory proof of the value of this plant, and there is abundant reason for believing that by iU cultivation the beef pro ducing capacity of the west will be quadrupled In the higher regions of New Nexico from four to six tons of alfalfa per ucre can be grown, while on the lower lands tho yield is yet heavier. Stockmen estimate that ten acres of those lands, iu their natural state, arc required for the support of each head of cat tle; it ii plain that by the cultivation of alfalfa the number of catUe*on those lands may be enormously increased. Cake of Sucking Colts.???Those who raise colts usually exercise care in the selection ol good stock to breed from, but many greatly neglect to give the colts proper attention dur ing hot weather while they are running with the dams. It i* not uncommon to see them that were healthy and well developed in catty summer looking puuy and jioor, and their hair falling off before autumn. This trouble arises from allowing the colt to draw milk while the blood of the mare is in a high state of heat from the violent exertion. When the danj is used in hot weather upon the farm or rood so aft to beat her blood, tho colt should never be allowed to rack until she has fully cooled off. Let bim fill himself be fore the mother is put into the harness, and if it is important that be should accompany the dam, tie him at her side so thathe wUlbe un able to draw milk until he is liberated, tor it is much better that be should go bungrr a few hours than to take bit food while it it in a pring from the east. Thoy Ur. Zeinwaldt only concluded planting them the last of April, and he speaks of the ruin we have been haviug during the few days ns n glorious dispensation. Talking yesterday of the injury worms are doing to fruit in the state, he stated that last year ho adopted tho preventive means used in the old country where he enmo from, and with entire success. They are very simple, consisting in removing the earth to the depth of about three inches, from about tho tree, then wrapping tho trunk of the tfree firmly with oilcloth, and covering the latter with tor, (he did not have pitch-tar handy, and used coal-tar); then replacing tho earth removed in the first place with fresh soil, not likely to have insects or grubs in it. In the old country the tar was renewed overy month in order that all the insects might be caught through sticking in it, but ho only a plied it once, and the pear* and other fruit !ii* orchard were perfectly sound. Following tho same procedure this spring, he recently cut open uinuy specimens of the fruit, but did not find a worm. Ho thinks this course of treatment, thoroughly performed, will prove entirely satisfactory to all who try it.???Record- Union.??? The Armv Worm.???It is reported that the cut worm ho* made it* appearance at Temescal and Riverside, and is doing considerable dam age to the vineyards of those regions. And now swarms of worms are on the march de stroying every green thing between East Loa Angeles and i???asadcna. A gentleman who re sides some miles above East Los Angeles fur nishes the information that the wholo region named is being overrun by these pests. IIo seems to think them the army worm, ???.with which he beenmo familiar years since in the cast. Their first appearauco was upon cab bage plnuts, as a small blaek worm, stripping the leaves entire; but growing and increasing in numbers, they assutno tho appearance of black catterpillars, nnd traveling with rapidi ty and with a uniform instinct, depredate upon every green growth iu their %vay. It is also stated that these same pests have made their appearauco below Los Angeles, but as yet have doue no serious damage to tho vine yards. Tho only remedy against them sug gested, so far as is known, is by irrigation, or inundating the loud in their course of march. In the viciuity of Los Angeles this would seem to be a sure nnd speedy method of de struction; but in places where irrigation is not possible, perhaps the only recourse will be that resorted to by the farmers of the north west in like emergencies. Several furrows are plowed in the lino of march of tho army worm, and replowed until tho soil becomes so mellow und pliable that the worm* can travel over it only with th???e utmost difficulty, and as they accumulate on tho furrows are har rowed into timely graves.???Los Angeles Herald, May .10th. Tomatoes and Aimm.k Blight.???Are tomatoes n cure for apple blight? A correspondent of the Australasian writes: Several articles hnv flppcarcd in your columns on ???apple blight. Within tho last few years I have witnessed remedy which was tried accidently, and which proved successful, in the garden of a gentleman in Geelong. When the garden in question was taken, two 1???earmnin npplo trees wore completely white with blight. Wl ging up some tomato plauts, n! Iocs had boon gathered, the plituks were placed temporarily in the lowest fork of ono of these apple trees, which happened to bo near, and before tho next apple season came round t had quite disappeared from thii tree. The other trees were tried in tho same ay, in order to hove it proved whether the tomato plants wore or were not the cure, and tho same effect was mused. I may add that although tho trees were so badly attacked by blight at first tho apples were always delicious i-aung apples. Catrrfillars ost Toees.???The fialt Luke Chronicle says: A gentleman iu this city has found a very simple and effective remedy for tho caterpillar nuisaucc. It is simply to mount a step-ladder with a can of coal oil and pour it on the ends of tho branchos, lotting ii run dowu to the body of the rrec. Tho cater pillars immediately drop to tho grouud and tho tree remains uninjured. Our informant states that he cleared all his trees of worms in a few hours. 4 Agricultural Notos.

It is now claimed hv scientists that a dead branch exhausts the Vitality of a vine or trea to a limited extent, and should bo removed. J)c*d canes on blackberries, raspberries, and the uselcs* vines of grape* should therefore be removed at the earliest opportunity.

In trimming grapevine, it should be re. membered that the wood of thia season???s growth will bo the portion to bear next year, and enough of it ahould be left on the vine for that purpose.
