In the choice of fruit trees, aft ; d;e car- and attention is necessary : for to ha\ et: f < that do not answer the c:.* eolations of the j jo prictor is a great disappointment. As th* \ oun z gardener may need s :cn directions as are ■ eulat ' to govern him i;i his choice, 1 siir ii cn •C' vor to furnish thorn.

Canker is discoverable in the \o;ng wood, and gen rally two or three inch's above the 4 graft or bud. If the tr> ebe an apricot, m e.far inc, peach or plum, or any gum appeal ' on the. lower part of it, do not fix upon that. Let the- ■ tree you select (if a dwarf) be worked ft bout 1 'tix inches from the ground, only one graft or bud should bo upon each sts k. for when there are more, the trees cannot be brought to so handsome a ibrnn In some of the preceding articles, I have' shown that some descriptions of trees may be transplanted with safety, ev ;i when far advan ced in growth.—When 1 1 *■< s fft-urorfive years growth, alter heading down, that are healthy cn 1 well furnished with fruit bearing wood j close up to the ce.itre tl tree, can be obtained, they will do v< ry well; but great care is requi-j *i*te in taking up, removing and planting such.; het the tree be taken i-.’> with as great a por tion of the roots as possible, taking care not to' bruise, split or damage them; from want of at-! tention to these points, trees often become dis-1 cased. W henever (notwithstanding all due can- j ti‘>n) any roots have been accidentally broken.* split, or otherwise damaged in taking up the j tree, let them be cut oil'; or if they cannot be! w< II spread, let the dam a a or bruised part be j pared clean with a sharpe knife, and an appli-i cation of (be following composition be over the wound, in order to keep the wet frorp4 it which would otherwise injure the tree. To equal parts of soft soap and tar, add a little bees-j wax ; i .1 them be boiled together and when cold' they may be used. The necessity of pruning ; in and dressing man defl roots, is more particu larly required in trees of the stone fruit, suchi os apricots, nectarines, peaches, plums, Ac.;' for without tlie.application of some remedy they I gum at the roots, winch defect, if not counter acted, very' materially injures the upper part of the trees, which may become so affected as nev-| er to recover aferwards: therefore, great care! should be taken not to occasion such injury; and w hen accidents happen, ail due caution and ap-* plication is necessary to promote a healthy and [ vigorous growth. O * i A young tree, likely to do well, should have! roo ; s nearly cons spending to the branches ; at least, it should have one strong root in a similar proportion to the hole ofthc tree, with a proper! distribution of branching fibres. Healthy roots are always smooth and clear, the color of them! varies a little according to 'he sort of the tree, but the older the roots are, the darker the color is. After the tree is taken up, be careful in con voying it to the place whore it is to bo planted,! so that the roots be not chafed or rubbed. If, trees are to be conveyed a consf lovable distance, they should be well guarded by straw or other, wise in order to prevent injury. All damaged;! bruised routs should be pruned as soon ns lire |• tree is taken up, l u if'it be necessary to prune i away any sound or good roots, such pruning; l should be delayed until the time of planting. In pruning away roots, always let them be finished' by a clear cut, and in a sloping direction, lotting : the slope be towards the under stratum, so that ! the wet may not be allowed to lodge upon the part so cut. When trees are plant* dat an ad-ii vanced season, in the spring of the year, it w ill be necessary to prune the tops; and if trees are removed that have been trained three or four years, and are not properly supplied with y oung wood, they must be cut down either wholly or , partially, in order to obtain a sufficiency, in practicing this upon apricot and nectarine trees, Ac. always prune so as to have a leading shoot; close below the cut, as it is very rare they will; push a shoot below, unless there be n load. —, This attention is not so particularly required in the pear, Arc., as such will generally push forth' shoots, although no leading ones were loll; but in all kinds, the younger the wood is, the more certain are shoots to be produced. If a tree that has been under training for one or two years.should have only one good strong loading! shoot an! two or three weaker ones, which do not proc*. el from ft, let the weak shoots ho pruned clean away, and shorten the stronger cne, from which a handsome head may bo formed. For further directions, as respects pruning and plant-' ing fruit trees, Ac., the reader is referred to’ the articles from page IGS to lb?, on the sub ject: and as it respects any specie of fruit in particular, directions will be found under its dis tinct head. From (he Oenrser Former. OX OKAFTft\Ci. There are quite too many of our farmers who appear ignorant of the proper method of this simple yet highly beneficial operation. Many people, after tilling the t<>ps of their trees with, grafts, wait two or three years to see w hat the', result of their labor will be b- tor* they cut a way the branches and let-in the sun, which gives the cions a chance for growing. This method I think w ill be entirely fruitless. In . grafting trees that have been set out Td or 15' years, from one half to two thirds of the top, mostly upright brancb.es, should be taken oft carefully with an axe or saw. Then from 4to 6 of the lower or lowest, smallest limbs, that' run horizontally should betaken oft'with an. nxe, leaving them of sufficient length to cut oft' as much of them as appears necessary with a., saw, as it is difficult in sawing the limbs oil once, to prevent the bark or wood from rising or splitting. The ends of the limb, or bark particularly, should be made smooth with a knife ; it should then be split in a horizontal! manner, and opened with a wedge of buck's horn or hard wood. Th« wood and hark where the cicr.6 are to 1 ’ e introduced, should be made straight and • s;;h.!0 h. The cions should be about 5 inches. •n length, and generally cut so as to contain as many as ‘.'roe buds. The end of the cion for, about au i;icn and a half should be whittled with a true ta(« r, leaving that edge ol the cion which is iu’ea Ivd i'-L ■ lie outside rather the thickest —' taking care not to whittle the cion too thin as most people are apt to do. In placing th<ft a m the stock, they should b* (isn't so that the Larks incline to cross a little with •he lower ends inclining in, and the upper ends c< us quentlv spreading a ii'tle, as they are as I kely *o live an 1 !• s.s liable to crowd when 'growing. The wounds then should be covered U the entire excl sion of air with a com osi .. of Fuisyth's, composed of rosin, beeswax, land hog’s lard, proportioned as follows ;— Ts> tv, o | ounds of j •.•sin, add one pound of beeswax, j an i a half pound of hog's lard ; the rosin should j he tuoroiigb’y mel'eU L* fore the other is added, I and lastly, poured imo a tub of cold water, and; w ovkc ; immediately over. A little oil or greas* • shoutd be applii dt to the fingers in putting it on,; to prevent r s sucking.—Where large limbs are taken eft’ in trimming, a thick coat of red pain: cov* ring the wounds, will be found us ful. • All. young shoe's should be taken oft’ the following; year and annually, with some of the limbs, till j; the top is entirely s ript of its original. d ; People dift* r a good deal in regard to the time j of emt.i.g grafts. Those that have been cut; just previous to their being set, according to my 1 ; !jobservations, have done better tlian those cut j earlier. W here they are cut early, they should j be kept in such a manner as to be as forward as I possible and not have the buds open when the! i tune comes for setting them. Crafts should be; ( taken from the thrifty bearing trees and from horizontal limbs —any thing like suckers should be rejected, and in order to have them do well, ' hey should be set in the very infancy of vege tation. ■ 4 *" ” 4 ———————— From the HJ.no's Monthly Magazine. : f AMMALU " Ihe bear is seldom seen. This animal in-; I; habits those parts oft the country that are thick-j ly wooded, and delights particularly in the cane-* brakes, where it feeds in the winter on the ten-! j; dor shoots of flic young cane. The meat is ten jjdcr and finely flavored, and is esteemed a great !j delicacy. M'olvcs are very numerous in every part of ihe State, 1 hero are two kinds: the common or black wolf, and the prairie wolf. The former | is a large fierce animal, and very des f ruc ive to sheep, pigs, calves, poultry, and oven young ! cop's. They hunt in large packs, and after ns 'tjing every stratagem to circumvent their prey ft attack il with remarkable ferocity. Like the | ~lndian they always endeavor to a irpriso their : victim, and s‘rike the mortal blew without ex j posing themselves to danger. They seldom at tack man except when asleep or w ounded. Tiv (largest animals, wlu n wounded, entangled or; (otherwise disabled, become their pi v y; but in | ; general they only attack such as are incapable (ol resistance. They have been know nto lie in wait upon the bank of a stream which the bufta loe were in the habit ol < rossmg, and when one ol ‘hose unwieldy animals w as so unfortunate as ■ho sink in the mire, spring suddenly u; on it, and' jj worry it to death, while thus disabled from re sts'ancc. Their inos: common prey is the deer, i; which they hum regularly; but all defenceless! ((animals are alike acceptable to their rev nous* |l appetites. When tempted by hunger they p.p- * ;! preach the farm houses in the night, and sn.hcli! hheir jua v from und-r he verv eye of die far* ijmer; and when the kilter i? absent with his dogs, : the wolf is sometimes s* cn by the females, lurk ing about in mid day, as if aw are of the unpro tected state of the family- Our heroic females I have sometimes shot them under such circum stances. The smell of burning assafoctida has arc markable effect upon this animal. In a fire made in the woods, and a portion of this drug . thrown into it, so ns to saturate the atmosphere ! with the odor, the wolves, if any arc within reach 1 ii of the seem, immediately assemble around, how liliug in the most mournful manner, and such is I the remarkable fascination under which they j seem to labor, that they w ill often suffer them selves to be shot down rather than quit the spot. Os the ft.w instances of their attacking hu | man beings, of w hicb we have beard, the follow ling may serve to give some idea of their habits, i In very early times, a negro man was passing in i! the night, in the lower part of Ken ucky, from j one settlement to another. Tiie distance was j j several miles, and the country over which ho{ travelled entirelp unsettled. In the morning his I I carcass was found, entirely stripj»cd of flesh. — 1 ! Near it lay hit axe covered with blood, and all j around the bushes wore beaten down, the ground i trodden, and ihe number of foot tracks so great I as to shew that the unfortunate victim had fought ! ; long and manfully. On pursuing his track it j | -appeared that the wolves had pursued him fora j ; considerable distance, he had often turned upon i them and driven them back. Several times 1 they had attacked him, and been repelled, as! appeared by the blood and tracks. He had kill. | !)ed some of them b; fore the final onset, and in! the last conflict had destroyed several. His ax* ;j w as his only weapon. On another occasion, many years ago. a ne- ; i groman was going through the woods with no companion but 1 ft 1"c when he discovered that a pack of wolves was on his track. Tlw pursued very cautiously, but a ftw of thcinii would sometinc s das’i up and grow ], as if impa tie-lit for their prey, and then fall back again.— As he had several nudes to go, he became much 1 alarmed. Ile sometimes stopped, shouted, drove i back his pursuers, and then proceeded. Tie I animals became more and more audacious, and II ,Would probably have attacked him had lie nor anivedat a deserted cabin which stood bv rhej wayside. Into this be rushed for shelter, and | without waiting to shut the door, climbed up and!; • sealed himself on the rafters. 'J'iie wolv* sdash-ij ed in after him, and becoming quite ferocious, j how led and leaped, and endeavored with every ; exertion of rage to get to him. The moon w as' , now shining brightly, ami Cuff being able to s« o ; i his tnemios. and satisfied of his own safety, be ■ gun to a< v on the oftensivo. Finding the cabin full of them, he crawled down to the top of the door which lie shut and fastened, Tiren remov i 'g some of the loose Ixtards from the roof, scat tered them with a tremendous cia'tcr upon such •i Ins foes as remained ourslde, who soon scam jpered otf. while those in the house began to :crouch with fear. lie had now a large number 4of prisoners to stand guard over, until morning; i | and drawing ibrrh ins fiddle, he verv good na turediy prayed for them all night, verv much as he supposed, to their edification and amuse men*,' for like all genuine lovers of music, he imagined jl it had power to soften even the heart of a wolf.— On the ensuing day, some of the neighbors as sembled and destroyed the captives with great j rejoicings."
