The subject of pruaning trees and vines of all kinds, the mode and the time, and the amount of pruning to be done, is receiving attention from pomologists. As might be expected from the various experience or theories of observers, r.nd the stand point from which they draw their conclusions, there is much diversity of opinion, some Condemning it altogether, and others advocating the free use of the knife.— These discrepancies are more apparent than real, if we keep in mind the true and ultimate object of prunning, and the effect we wish to produce. It may be safely asserted as a gener al principle in vegetable physiology, that all pruning is more or less injuri ous to the well being cf the living plant. In a state of nature, or when a tree or vine is left to itself, there is a grad ual adjustment and equilibrium estab lished between the roots and branches There are roots enough to absorb and cany up the nutritive fluid and there ate branches, with the leaves, enough to work it up and assimilate the nutrition. When this equilibrium is disturbed, in jury, disease, or death follows. The degree of injury will depend upon cir cumstances, such as’the amount of pru ning, the time when it is done, and the constitution and habits of the particular plant. Some bear pruning better than others, and in" winter than in summer. We may take a le&on from the man* ncr in which nature does her pruning. Take a young tree, a pine, for example. There arc a number of small laterals. As the tree grows upwards and the trunk enlarges, the sap has a tendency to the upper portion ; these literals be gin to lose their vitality, and at length die out and fall to the ground. In the old tree there i3 not even a trace of these primary branches, and their very scars are obliterated. Very different is the effect when, by artificial means, a vigorous, healthy limb is lopped off. The equilibrium between roots and branches is suddenly destroyed, and the plant receives a shock to its system, which impairs vi tality to some extent. But in all kinds of cultivation, whether for ornament or for fruit, we find it better to sacrifice somewhat the health or longevity of the plant for some other advantages to bo gained, of greater value. We prune our fruit trees and grape vines to keep them within bounds and give them shape better to resist the effect of a too hot sun, or high winds, and also by reduc ing the amount of woody growth, to obtain better fruit. So also of hedges, or other artificial shapes we may desire to produce. A hedge is a collection of stunted, half-starved, ill-conditioned in dividuals, but when taken as a whole, its general effect (which is the thing sought after) is useful or pleasing.— Whatever may be the chief object in cultivation, whether it be the perfection of fruit or flowers, or usefulness as a hedge, or ornamental shape, we seek that, and not the longevity of the plant. It the plant could not furnish these requisites,- it would not be worth to cul tivate at all. The true end and aim of all pruning, therefore, is to do just so much of it and no more, as will give the best results, with the least injury. And this must be ascertained by prac tical observation and experience. The above remarks are of course in tended to apply [to such things as are "rowing and fixed for life. In trans planting it is necessary to prune. No matter how carefully a tree may be ta ken up, the roots are injured more, or less, according to the care used. In proportion as the roots ars lessen ed, so must we lessen the branches.— Even in transplanting small things from the nursery bed when all the roots can be secured, it requires time for the absorbing functions to commence theiT supply of fluid, and so it is best alwajs to pinch off a portion of the leaves, and thus restore the equilibrium. —Rural Carolinian. Sjrays. The golden syrups, sugar drips, etc., are delusions and snares. A professor of chemistry has examined a dozen va rieties of syrups sold at the greceries, and says that they are all “ doctored,” made by the “ sulphuric acid process,” as follows : “ A warm (131 degrees Full.) mixture of starch and water of about the consistency of cream, slowly poured into a boiling solution of one per cent, sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol,) the whole boiled for some time ; then the acid is neutralized by chalk, and the mixture set aside When the sediment has settled in the bottom the liquid is dipped off and boiled down to syrup. This syrup may be boiled aown to a sugar, forming what is known as ‘ grape or glucose sugar/ Instead of starch, however, old rags can and are used very largely—rags collected from the streets, or wherever they eau be found •*♦*>- Living and sleepi”gin a room which the sun never enters is a slow form of suicide. A sun bath is the most re freshing and* life-giving bath that oan be taken. Brfad and cuke should'be kept' in a tin box or stone jar. He is worth no weal that can bide no DU)<L Storing Hay in Tiglit Barns. Nearly thirty years ago, a man of pro gressive ideas said to us that grass but partially cured cou'd be Stored in large bulk in tight barns, with'perfect safety, and come out looking better and less musty than when dried and stored in ventilated barns. We regard it as a visionary idea, to which he had given a kindly reception on account of its nov elty, but which would result in loss if put in practice. It was the custom then to side up barns with green boards, so that they would shrink in seasming, leaving wide cracks to admit the air for drying out the hay. An important principal was here overlooked. Fermentation, like combustion, is caused by the union of oxygen with carbon, and can no more proceed if air is excluded, than fire can burn under the same conditions. Many farmeishave learned that manure will not ferment rapidly when it is trodden down so as to nearly exclude the air,and that it seldom fire-fangs when it is thrown where cattle can trample it un der foot. The class which, above all others,has made grass and hay a special study, is dairymen. They have ascertained by by experiment, directed by science, that hay will keep better in elapboarded or battened barns than in open barns or stacks. That the heating will be so moderate as to only dry out the hay without moulding. If it is a fact that hay can be safely put into a large mow, in a tight barn, less cured than is necessary if stacked or stored upon a scaffold,or in open barns, it is a very important fact for farmers, as it will enable them to gather their crops with much less exposure to th‘e vicissitudes of the weather, for even where the hay is in the cock, the exteri or suf’acc is injured by contact with dew or rain. —Rural Home. **ii jsJjur for Fowls. There is no remedy and assistant so easily and cheaply obtained, so harmless to the funds, or so satisfactory in its re sult, as sulphur. It being iu the sys tem of animals to a small degree, there is a greater affinity for it than there otherwise would be. It can be adminis tered to fowls by havimg it in a small box, so that they can help themselves, or by mixing it with their feed once a week, or as often as there are indica tions of vermin. Penetrating, as it do c s, to every part of the system,the parasites are quickly and surely destroyed. Also gapes are said to be prevented in chick ens. Fowls need it more than other animals, (heir feathers containing be tween four and five per cent of sulphur. Their eggs also have a small quantity, which is noticed by the discoloring of a silver spoon when it comes in contact with a boiled egg. Applied externally to the fowls on the nest, to the nest it self, or mixed with the soil in the dusting box, is equally efficacious in de stroying vermin. To be used a3 a fu migator of buildings, it is necessary to remove the fowls, close the room or house, mix a little saltpetre with the sulphur iu an iron vessel, and apply a match to the mixture. This should be done in the morning, and the doors and windows opened in the afternoon for a thorough ventilation. Lord mixed with sulphur in proper proportionated applied as often as it is necessary to the feathers or the neck and back of young and old turkeys, is a very good safeguard against the ravages of foxes.— Poultry World. How Chickens get out of Shells. Take an egg out of the nest on which the hen has set her full time, carefully holding it to the ear; turning it round you will find the exact spot on which the little fellow is picking at the inside of the shell ; this he will do until the inside skin is perforated, and then the shell is forced outward on a small scale, leaving a hole. Now, if you will take one of the eggs in this condition from under the hen,remove it to the house or other place,Jput it in a box or nest, keeping it warm and moist, as near the tempera ture of the hen as possible (which may be done by laying it between two bottles of warm water upon some cotton or wool) and lay a glass over the box or nest,then you can sit or stand as is most conven ient, and witness the true modus oper andi.—Now watch the little fellow work his way into the world, and you will be amused and instructed as I have often been. After it has got its opening, it commences a nibbling motion with the point of its upper bill on the outside of the shell, always working to the right (if you have the large end of the egg from you and the hole upward), until it lias worked its way around, say with in one-half an inch, in a perfect circle. It then forces the cap or but end of the shell off, and then has a chance to straighten its neck, thereby loosening its legs somewhat, and so, by their help forcing the body from the shell.—Amer ican Farm Journal. Watermelons. —Muscat s ne Island, la., it the most famous pi ce in all the Northwest for this delicious fruit. I asked a farmer upon that large Island how many acres of watermelons were es timated to be there. Ilis answer was one thousand, and bis neighbor said that was proDably an under-estimate. The Island is a large, level plain of sandy land ; hence its adaption to melons and sweet potatoes. The melons grow large and of the sweetest and best qual ity, mostly a variety called Black Span ish, large, round, dark green, red core, and very sweet. They are well known in this city (Quincy, 111 ), being brought here in boats and sold out to the stores to rteail. They are also shipped to Chicago, Omaha, St. Paul, and have been sent to Duluth, Denver, Buffalo, New York, etc. Their weight' is from ten to twenty pounds—sometimes forty. They sell by the wagon load at §S to 810 per hundred. One hundred make a good two-horse wagon load, fil'ing a wagon with side boards, that will meas ure fifty bushels. — Western Agriculture ist.

Printed from new type, and illustrated with Several Engravings and Maps. The work originally published under the title of Tiie New American Cyclop.edia was completed in 1863, since which time the Wide circulation which it has attained in all parts of the United States, and (he signal developments which have taken place in every branch of science, literature and art, hate induced the editors and publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The Am e ican Cyclopaedia. Within the last ten years the progress of discovery in every department of knowl edge has made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the indus trial and useful arts and the convenience and refinement of social life. Great wars and consequently revolutions have occur red, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own coun try, which was at its height when the last voluns of the old work, appeared, has hap pily been ended, and anew course of com mercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowledge have been made by the indefati gable explorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last decade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives evw ery one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and impor-. tat sieges maintained, of which the details are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place in permanent and authentic history. Iu preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possible dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the most recent dis coveries in science, of every fresh produc tion in literature, and of the newest inven tions in the practical arts, as ivell as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work lias been begun after long and cat eful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources for carrying it on to a successful termination. None of the original stereotype plates have been -’sed, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with the same plan and com pass as its predecessor, but \tith a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which are introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial ef fect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They em brace all branches of science and of natu ral history, and depict the most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architect ure, end art, as well as the various process es of mechanics and manufactures. Al though intended for instruction rather than embellishment, no pains have been spared to insure their artistic excellence; the cost ol their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopaedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed iu sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous coloied Li thographic Maps, ■Price and Style of Binding.
