Transplanting Evergreens. j
From the middle of August to the!
middle f October (according to the;
latalude) is the best season for trans-
planting coniteruiis Evergreens. The '
season's growth is then matured, tiio i
earth is warm and the nights are cool. ;
Under these circumstances new roots
are rapidly made: these trees get estab- j
lijhetl before winter sets in and they i
are thus less liable to be injured by the
cold rains and high winds of the late
Autumn and Winter. In removing
tli?m fruin the nursery great care must
be taken not to allow the roots to be
come dried. More trees are lost in
transplanting from this one cause th::n
from all others put together. They
should, if possible, be puddled as soon
as they are taken up; but at any rate
puddled when recieved a process :
which excludes the air from the roots i
and keeps the them moist. Puddling i
is dipping the roots into a mixture of
finely pulverized soil and water made
into the consistence of thick cream,
w hich adheres to and c-ncuses the roots
and protects them from the injury
otherwise arising from exposure to the
atmosphere.
The trees should be re-planted with
the least possible delay and the earth
well pulverized before being thrown
over the roots; During the filing in the
tree, if not to large, should be shaken
up and down so that the earth may Jill
up the interstices between the roots,
and the earth should, afterwards, be
well trodden down. If the roots have
not been puddled it is better not to
tread down. JJut, when the hole lias
been two-third-s tilled, pour in suineient

tn again, return the soil. Xever use j
soapsuds, manure water or any liquid, j
except pure water, to newly trans- j
planted trees ; nor apply any manure, i
earth from the woods or woodpiles, or
any other ingredient to them in this i
operation. Nothing more is required j
than good fresh earth and water; any-
thing else is positively injurious if not j
certain death to them. After trans
planting the trees should be firmly
staked; to secure them from the action !
of high winds which, by rocking them j
to and fro, prevent the young roots i
from properly taking hold of the soil!
and furnishing the tree with its prop
er nourishment by absorbing from the
earth the moisture so necessary to its
existence.
The operation of transplanting is a
very simple one and there are none of
the mysteries about it in which many
people believe. Its success consists in
preserving as many roots a3 posible on
the tree; never allow ing them to be
come dried ; making the fresh soil in
which they are planted as neatly linn
as can be to that in w hich they were
previously growing, and preserve a
sufficient moisture in the new soil to i
ensure rapid root making. Mutilated
roots, like cuttings, will not make new
roots unless they have a proper supply
of rnnirsi tire, and not when in contact
with decomposing manure or sim' r j
materials. In re-potiug green use j
plants the case is different, as tl. n the
roots are all intact, (or should be) and
they immediatlv begin to sibsorb the !
stronger plant food. Hut it is impos- j
ible to remove a tree of any usual size !
for transplanting, without in some de- j
gree depriving it of roots. The more j
carfully, therefore, these are retained j
and preserved the more likely is the
operation of transplanting to prove
successful. I

honest, fearless, and fiee. Stand to
gether, shoulder to shoulder, and heart
to heart, an invincible and irresistible
phalanx, in everything that concerns
the welfare of your own glorious frat
ernity. And the newspajorial millen
nium will be near at hand. The coun
try will be redeemed, exalted, and pu
rified. And an editor he who makes
the politics and politcians of the land,
who leads in every forward and up
ward movement of humanity may
ere long be as respectable as a peanut
peddler, stable-boy, circus-elown, band
organ monkey, Berkshire-pullet, whiskey-ring
thief, secretary of war. for
eign minuter, pick-pocket or president.
