J). .1. iilssell, of Missouri, gives some Interesting facts in the Kural World in illustration of the views we have often given, in preventing bar ren and loaded fruit trees in alter nate years by generous treatment. An appplo tree in Newington, Conn., over lirty years old, was visited in lato August, whenonc-lialf of the top was loaded with fruit. Other varie ties were, borne on the rest of the tree, ripening at other times, and thus furnishing a succession for the tainlly. He kcj.t them bearing alter nately by feeding them well, and not allowing the Idle side to produce any. This course was quite uniform, and he found no ditllculty in controlling the product. Mr. lilssell's father had an orchard in Connecticut, which he mulched regularly In winter after freezing, lemoving the mulching in spring after the trees blossomed. This preserved the moisture. There were, no years ol overbearing, nor of fail ure. The treatment, given them furnished them with a handsome, smooth bark when they were forty years old. The grass is mowed in July, an1 lies m the ground for mule lug. .t this Mint: overloaded trees are thinned, re ecting, defect ive specimens Manure is spread every year.

A con esp indent of Stockman and Farmer relates hlscxicrioiicc in break ing colts as follows: "In the rail or Mill I took up two colts, full brothers, ono just !1 and the other - years old, and put them to work. After a few lessons Ircalde old horses they were put together and have worked so al most wUolly since, doing the princi pal part of the work on a 15-acrc farm. They are three-quarter blond Norman, large and active, The younger horse has stood - the work equally well with the other, kept In as good condition and spirits and grown as well. He it, in fact, a lit tle larger now. This, with other ci perlenoes and otimrvatloos, help roe to the tieltef that tntr of our Urge breeds of horses may be made to earo ctif i; their living during tbelr third year, and that with easooabie care ia working and handling thev will make juKt ai large and powerful horfes. Moreover, puttini to work at t in stead of three or our yeara of aga greatly reduces .tie Ios from acci dents. Hordes on our farms are not blemished so much after they legin work aj lfore. vYijlterlnir. Apples. In good fruit years when there is an abundance ol apples, the market pr ce runs low because of a supuly that exceeds the demand. Apples are a perishable product and many of the earlier varieties soon go to decay, and after a time the supply will be reduced to a poi even tdow the demand and then the value wilt ad vance. This fact shows the ituport aiii e of lruit growers studying the nature of varieties and of making a seleciion of some of the most e .eel lent, late-keeping varieties. Those wiio are so fortunate as to have such varieties or who can keep other fruit late, say till May and June, know that the price is very satisfactory. Apple will keep longer than is gen erally suppoed., and with the price that can be secured for such there is somewhat of a disposition to chana from the practice of selling irotn the tree that has urcvailed to some ex tent. For this reason there Is a tendency to drift into the practice at cold storage a means of keeping fruit that will, when fully Under stood, prove successful and profit able, as apples under favorable con ditions will keep a much longer time than is. usually supposed. Light and heat are two essential conditions that operate In hastening the matur ity and decay f auples. Apples picked just before arriving at perfect maturity and placed in a dark cellar with the temperature held at or very near the freezing point will continue sound for a great length of t me and lose none of their good ijual ities. This is the principle that governs in the construction of cold storage houses for the safe keeping of apples. A lUl, Holder. A dcuse for holding raits or slats while being shaped to Qt post, is to take a piece of round or square tiru I bcr ten feet long. With a IJ-lnch auger bore two holes near one end for inserting leg, like old-fashioned Device roKHiu.iusu Kaiiji. bench. Within eighteen inches of the other end insert two plus, or a forked stick, of the proper shape to hold the rails in place. The rail is placed on two blocks. lrlve a stake In the ground for the end of the machine to rest on while taking out and putting in rails. ltoneMeel for Hoe;. l'rof. Henry of the Wisconsin Ex periment Station rexrts that bone meal fed to fattening hoes made the corn fed to then produce much more pork. It balanced the ration, enabling the hogs to make, larger frames and thus put 011 a greater amount of flesh than would lie possi ble with corn alone. Part of the in creased weight is therefore lione. Wood ashes are nearly as good for hog as bone meal. There was .10 per cent, more ash in the bones of hogs fed on bone meal or ashes than then was in bones of hogs led on corn alone. Hut oats and wheat, bran or tiilddlinus abo contain the proer material lor making bono, and in most cases they can be more cheaply and safely fed than can bone meal. 1'nless bones are burned before being ground they may be the metiis ol making the hogs diseased in some way.
