Some Pruning Suggestions.
While watching a traveling tree
pruner going through an orchard recent
ly sawing and cutting limba right and
left, it occured to tho writer that if all
trees wore pruned in tho manner in
which that job was being dono the prac
tice of pruning had better never been
introduced, and the trees and shrubs
left to grow at their own sweet will.
This man had a job and he wanted to do
something to cam his money, and what
he was doing was a plenty. Tho owner
of this orchard was the victim of the
perinetetic tree pruner, because he had
neglected to inform himself upon a few
practical pruning principles v, men uuum
... i 1.1
have been easily learned. The pruning
of apple trees, if attended to for the tirst ..
three or four vears after they have set
out, is practicallv finished, and they
will seldom need the application of the
saw or knife afterward. Tho pruning of
apple trees is best done from the timo
the leaves fall in Autumn until
their appearance again in the spring. It
will always be found to bo a mistake to
trim up peaches and plums at this time
of tho vear. They will stand tho opera
tion, much better and give better results
if it is left until spring. The small fruits,
such as the blackberry and raspberry.
may be gone over and all the canes that
bote fruit the past summer removed,
and' the gooseberry and cm rants may bo
eorie over and thinned out. It should
be borne in mind at all times that indis
criminate cutting and slashing is not
priming. We have seen men who would
not pass through the orchard; at any
time of the year without reaching for
their knife and cutting off a branch here
and there, for what reason they could
not .explain. The knife should never be
put to the tree unless the man behind
the;knife has a definite idea of what he
intends to accomplish by using it. The
art of prunine is simple and can be
easily learned, either from some stand
ard book on the subject or by observing
the methods of some successful orchard
ist in the neighborhood. A big wagon
load of brush cut from the trees and
hauled away every year may be a good
indication of the industry of the pruners
wisdom and sacacitv. J. M. C. in

Value of Guineas on the Farn.
Though guineas are not as serviceable
as hen3 when connneo, give tnem ineir
liberty and thev can be raised with snch
small expense as to return a handsome
profit, both in flesh and eggs. Natural
ly wild, they hide to lay their eggs, but
often betray themselves by the noise
they make ; hence, if one will watch
them going to their nests, or coming off,
they can easily be detected. They gen
erally consist oi a little cup-shaped re
ceptacle hollowed out in the earth, and
will sometimes be found running over
with the small brown eges, for guineas
are prolific lavers. The eggs are rich
and well flavored, too, and preferred by
many housekeepers for cake and other
nice cooking, the yolks in them being
much larger in proportion than in hen's
eggs; taken, dozen for dozen, their food
value is about the same. Unfortunate-
v however, cuinea ezes do not alwavs
sell as well in the market, but they may
be kept for home consumption and thus
increase the number of hen's eggs for
sale. The guinea fowl, be it ever so
nicely dressed, is also likely to prove,
until thoroughly known, a drug on the
maioritv of markets, except the time
when the game is in season ; it will then
bring as good a price as chickens, espec
ially if sold to hotels, restaurants and
private customers. Its lack of apprecia-
tion.br the uninitiated is probably due
to the dark color of the flesh, which con
tains, nevertheless, a delicacy of flavor
that approaches to wild game parti'
cularly the prairie chicken, only it is
more tender and juicy. Few people, un
less unduly prejudiced, can fail to relish
it and when young as "boilers" or
"friea" guineas are equal if not superior
to chickens, while no fowl is better than
a grown guinea if properly pot roasted
or made into a pie. In raising guineas
it is advisable, when the incubating is
perforfonned by hens, to add a few
chicks to the number by putting hen's
eggs in the nests a week after the guinea
eggs are set; the chicks will teach the
young guineas to obey the hens, and
also make them gentle and tame. Both
should, be alike during the first few
weeks of their life, as the hens will not
be inclined to go foraging with them,
but later the guinea hens may be allow
ed to hatch, which, the weather by that
timo being milder, and insects and
erass abundant, will take their broods
to the fields and rear them, by consum
ing mj-riads of noxious insects, at
little or no expense to the owner. In
addition to receiving the same care and
feed as young chicks, guineas, prior to
five weeks old, need finely chopped
meat at least three times a week; more
over, as they feather fast, indeed, they
should be fed often, for the missing of
only a meal will sometimes result in
their death. Once they are rightly
started, however, little is to be feared,
and five or six guineas, with a male, and
a flock of 50 or GO raised each season for
home consumption, are a profitable in
vestment for any farmer to make.
While they can fly liko birds, bo that no
fence restrains them, they will not
scratch, and in the garden are a most
desirable thing to have, for they will
catch thousands of bugs and worms and
really do a great deal of good ; in fact,
the more they are domesticated up to a
reasonable degree, the better. Being
rather tender, they seem to suffer great
ly with cold, and in winter should have
as good protection as hens; but in sum
mer they delight to be out of doors all
the time, and will roost, if permitted,
in apple trees or tho like, near the
house. Epitomost.

SUFFERING ClOD;
(Contributed)
(Continued from last issue)
If we look further back than the
Christian religion, wo find this idea of
a suffering God among tho ancient
Egyptians. Isis and Osiris came into
this world poor and in pain. Moved
with divine passion, this "god and god
dess" sought permission from tho nigh-
or "irod" to come to tho world and in
struct man, to give him light; they
came with a "revelation" and it is sig
nificant that it was not a formal code of
morals, but something practical ; it had

ine them how to use those implements 1
in tho field, instructed them how to

to harness tho swift horso to tho chariot
for tho pleasure and excitement of the
race. Osiris also gave theso people laws
on instJtntwt nmrrinpo and cave them
civilization. When the beneficence of
the god and goddess had been very great
to the people of tho Nile and tho inhabi
tants of that land were blest and happy,
tlm romnassion of that cod went out to
other mrts of the world and he left
1 w
Isis to look after the government of the
Egyptians while ho mado pilgrimages
to other parts of the world to instruct
others : their cod was a missionary ; his
and beneficence extended to
all tho world. While he .was gone his
brother, jealous of Iub renown and his
worship by the people, sought to usurp
his throne, but Isis prevented it. Still
plotting, he bided his time until the re
turn of Osiris and secured his overthrow
in this manner: he had a box con
structed, made the exact size of Osiris,
and at a great feast given in honor of
the return of Osiris the envious brother
challenged any one at the feast to get
into the box ; 'everybody failed becanse
it was made the exact size of the god
Osiris; he having tried it, the jealous
brother fastened down the lid and, with
his companions, carried the box away
and threw it into the Nile. It was borne
by the sacred waters to an island and
landed against some reeds. Everywhere

such wonderful power to the reed
aeainst which it had lodced that the
reed grew into a mighty tree, enclosing
within its trunk the confined god. This
tree was subsequently cut and carried
away and made a pillar in the palace of
the king of Phonicia; still Isis sought
the body ; with hair shorn, and dressed in
black, she wandered, weeping, upon the
banks of the sacred Nile; then the sa
cred birds instructed her where the body
might be found. Disguised as a servant
she entered into the employ of some one
in the king's palace and when once
there she struck with her wand the
great pillar that contained the body of
her lord and recovered the body and
went back to Egypt; the envious broth

secm-ed it again from her and divided it
into fourteen parts and scattered them
to the four "corners" of the earth.
Isis, still patient, set about to find the
pieces, and recovered thirteen of them ;
the fourteenth piece had been cast into
the Nile and devoured by fishes ; she re
placed this one by a block, made like it,
from a sycamore tree, and the body
thus restored was buried and became
the centre of a creat temple, to which
the Egyptians made annual pilgrimages

The singular thing about it is, how
did the oriental mind imagine that a
god must Euffer? Why should a ruler,
eminent, beneficent, wise and good, be
plotted against, hunted, betrayed and
murdered and even his body desecrated?
What was the origin of that conception
that involved a god with the suffering
incident to human life? If we come a
little further in religious history we find
a like idea. When the earth was older
some of the "gods" of the Olympian pal
ace, moved with compassion, sought to
benefit the inhabitants of the earth ;
Prometheus and his brother obtained
... . .. t. .
permission to come to the world and in
struct mankind in the simple art of liv
ing; as a result of tho visit of the gods
Prometheus taught them the arts, archi
tecture and masonry, taught them some
knowledge of agriculture and instructed
the women how to spin and weave ; man
acquired some knowledge of hygienic
laws and planted the seeds of civiliza
tion. They lacked yet one thing the
beasts were stronger and preyed upon
them. The brother of Iroinetheus,
making tho beasts, had made them
stronger and with greater courage
than man, and man had no adequate
defense against the beasts. By tho help
of a "goddess" he stole some fire from
the "celestial altar" and gave it to man ;
with that man had a means of defense
against the beasts; but when the "Rul
er" of gods and men saw that Prome
theus had conferred the sacred fire up
on the world, as a gift, "He" was ex
ceedingly wroth and as a punishment
caused Prometheus to be bound alive to
a high rock of Caucasus, where the vul
tures preyed forever upon his living
heart. Prometheus might have been
released had he revealed a plot against
the Olympian Jove, but he disdained to
win his liberty in that manner. Con
tent to suffer, he remained chained to
the everlasting rock and became for all
time the symbol of magnanimous en
durance, of unmerited suffering and of
unselfish beneficence. A sacred hymn
sung for ages by the devotees of that re
ligion, began thus: "Lo, streaming
from that fatal tree, His all-atoning
blood. Is this the Infinite? Yea, 'tis
He, Prometheus and our God." One of
the Promethean gospels, like one of the
Christian, has the god nailed to a tree.
The suggestive thing about it is how
did it ever occur to the human mind to
picture a god chained to a rock or nailed
to a tree? what was its rise? They are
thoughts, they are ideas and as such, a
part of tho mental equipment and" fur
niture of the world.
A little further toward a modern time
we find a liko idea of a suffering God.
In this instance much of the poetry,
much of the imagination, as in tho
former's, are found. We have a God
clothed in the flesh of man, garbed like
a pepsant, walking with sandals upon
bis feet, and sweat upon his brow, a
THE
man among tho poor, without a place to
lay his head, with but fow friends, pos
sessing none of this world's goods, an
outcast. People oassed by him, mock
ing and wagging their heads. Ho is
abject and sad "a man of sorrow and
acquainted with grief." And yet, wo
hear from tho Vatican and elsewhere,
'In very truth a voiyGodl" Ho, a
God, must live a life of poverty; and
his sufferings of sorrow and sadness
were not sufficient He, liko tho many
gods preceding him, must dio a death of
torture, of ignominy, and public shame.
And so, ancient imagination, ancient
religious romance have this God, this
'very God," bending beneath tho
weicht of his own cross, stumbling and
falling upon his knees as ho treads the
" . r ..
rocky way leading to Golgotha. Nailed
hand and foot upon tho cross, naked,
yet a "very God !"
now aid tho notion ol a suiiering uou
originate? How did it como to bo? 15i
blea did not originate it, nor ecumenical
councils, nor creed makers ; it belonged
to the romantic race of its timo and
evolved from lessor romantic though!,
from structure of tho brain, a residence
for tho mind, and coming up from that
which was older than literature, older
than tradition.
There is a striking correspondence be
tween a modern conceptiou of a suffer
ing God and that of Aeschylu6, who
dramatized Uie Greek idea, and that of
tho Egyptian Osiris, and a like idea il
lustrated, almost indefinitely, by the
traditions of other peoples.
