Hints on Fruit Culture Mr. Meehau, ever conclsp nd practical 1ms the lollowinK iu his last Gardenet'n Monthly: Fruit culture for profit lias had lo contend with over abundant ciops tho pant year or two, and the trees In mirh caspa are weaken ed. Now, this may bo remdfed by thin ning out fruit In infancy. This prevonts a glut, gives finer fruit and oaves the tree. lieaides thinning the fruit, n should thin the you nit brancbex. Handsome foriuK are as deeirable in fruit as in ornamental treeH. Nu winter pruuing will do this exclusively. It may fumixh the shelelon but It I sum mer pinching which clothes Ihe bones with bvanly. A Mtrong plioot ixin draws all its nii'i- meat to Itself. Never allow on. shoot lo grow that wants to be bigger than others. Kqusllty mtiNl be insisted on. Pinch out always as toon as they appear, such aa wonld push loo strongly ahead and keep doing so till the new buds seam no stronger than the others. Thus the food gets equally distributed. Fruit growing primarily for pleasure, to follow with plenty of good fruit, has been much encouraged by the greater success of the grapo ot'late years. There Is much more Interest In having collections of varieties than there used to be. Au to the best system of pruning grapes, there are several "schools," all contending that their views are decidedly best. In such cases, we have generally lound there Is much lo admire in them all situations and peculiar circumstances ritcldidg Uio point in each iudividual instance. Tliuro are a lew (minis incontrovertible to insure succees, and it matters little what system of pruning Is followed, so that they nre secured. First, a healthy sot of roots of the previous year's growth Is essential to produce vigorous atart of growth tho year following, Secondly, after starting these roots cau only be kept vigorous by encouragiug an abundance of healthy foliage, to be retained on the vino as long as possible. Thirdly, the leaves of the first growth are at least or double the value to the plant than those from secondsry or lateral shoots; they should, therefore, bu carefully guarded irom injury. Fourthly, checking thestroag growing shoots strength ens Hie weaker one-, fiialbes the rlow of sap to every part of the vine, nnd insures regular and harmonious action between all the parts. Any system that ssoures this does all that is necessary for the general health and vigor o' the vine; mid where some siiecial objects are desirable, such as dwarfing, particiilatly early bearing, pro ductiveness at the eonso of longevity, special means mutt be employed to bring them about. Fertilizing the Orchard. In reply to (jueries upon this subject, the S'iC'ittie Mmnir advises, as the flesh of most fruits contains much potash as well as lime In combination with tho liiiity acids, and the seeds phosphoric acid, the applica tion each year per acre of from 20) to 10 poll nils of Lone dust, SCO lo 100 pouuds of sulphate of potash the latter guaranteed lo contain 115 to 40 pur cent, of sulphate of potash. This would give us TO to SO pounds of potash, 5(i to HO pounds ot phosphoric acid, and Mi lo 70 pounds ot lime (from the bone-), 10 to Lit pounds nl nitrogen, and some mag nesia in the potash ami fertilizer, fcnoh treatment Iibs been found successful by fruit growers in both this country nnd Kuropo. We should apply broadcast in Ihe Kail to the surface, and ieao it to the rains to incorpo rate wllh iho soil, or at most only harrow Hie fertilizer in. A ton ot dry, tmleacbed wnod ashes per acie would furnish nearly the same ingredients. The same amount of mineral phosphates us mentioned of bones would furnish mote phosphoric ncid, but in a mure insoluble con Jiliou. Horticulture Miscellany. "I l I had to preach a sermon on horticul ture," snyn I'oiMiinu, "I should lake this for my te.v: "Mir the soil." In dry weather it is very esent'al thai the soil should bestir red olum.

Our one-Lsy theorsls Minong bnrliculttirUts have had a rather dull time for several years past and the late tirade of Shirley Hlbbard of L'ngland upon the general practice of prnn. ing trees, has given the discontent some thing lo talk about. We rejoioe ore r this one foreiim convert to Apstle .Saunders' old time theory of no pruning for fruit tree., . t,. l.ll ... . .... r will we iwueve mat lue oio larmer was about right, when advUed to pinch back hi black berry bushes o make ihern bear Mg berries, replied That' so!

BinalXeir Yorker. Woot Asiiks. The Scientific American says: The point to which we now call atten tion Is, that our farmers aud fruit-growers are Ignorant of the importance of wood ashes as a vegetable stimulant, and a leading con stituent of plant. Rven coil ashe, now thrown away as useless, have I fen shown both by experiment and analysN to possess a fair share of alksllnn value. We will re late only one. n pertinent. Some twenty-live yenrstsgo we Irealeu annul pippin trw.au tol!nw: The hollow to Ihe height ol eiht feet was filled and rammed with a composite of wood aahes, garden mould, and a little waste lime (catbonaio.) The tilling wiu securely lastened In by boarxls.

Stock. 00l0b of fedigbee shorthorns. In tho sale catalogue of Mr. Saunders, of Nun wick Hall, Penrith, July :, ltV, there Is entered a "light roan" (query, was it light yollow roanT) cow, 'Anemone, got by Abra ham Parker (l56) dam Playlul by lMen (30iiS,) grandam Spots by 2d Duko of Nor thumberland (S04U) greatgrandum White Chitlingbam 2d by Young Sea Gull i.'ilOO), great great-graudam, bred by the Kirl of Tankervillo from bulls of Mr. Jnbson' lor thiee crosses." Now, what does this mean (thoro are surely those who can tell uM that Uirl Tankervillo tritd the cvpcrltucnt, which wo lately read is lo ho tried again, between the heifers of B loth blooil, bought lor the purpose by Mr. Jacob Wil-on, and n Chilllnghaui wild bull? and, II' to, was the result iu White Cbillingham 2d, a cow of the sort vveofteu see, viz: While wiut yellow roan, or reddish ears? Aud then her daugh ter "apots," what colored spots had she on her aDd where plAcodT Some haiu denied, and others as resolutely asssrted, that we owe tho white of the pedigree shorthorn to a cross with Ihe Cbllliugham cattle. Mr. Can positively asserted the (act. Then I.,iwretie remarks that the Lincolnshire) cattle got a white hue through a Dutch impoitatlon. 1 see that the celebrated "Berwickshire ox," who came of a stock that bad beeu ''improv ed by Toeswater bulls from Northumber land," shown in Palluiall, Loudon, in tho spiiug of 1803, was n "rich deep rod, with a loiv -.vhlte sols on the face." Whence came this de:lh of hue? Then, iu later days, tho celebrated Fourth Duko of Oxford (117) was such u black looking infant, fresli horn, that the late Mr. Struton roared w all umiise ment at the sight; and jet he was got by (jirand Duke, and the Grand Dukes wore gotten yellow reels, and his dam was by the 2d Duko of Northumberland (964U)--.the sire by the way of our fair friend "Spots" above vv nose sire and graudslre were the yellow roan llelvidere, and his great-grandsiru the jellovv red and white Second ilubback. The question beats us. Wo are only led to consider this question agalu through a letter received recently, In which a friend writes; "My linll" (of ancient dosceut, and a dark ish red) "gets his calves very shapely, but such queer color. I have a beautiful hellor calf by him, out of a (3ynno cow , but she Is like a Guernsey In color," Now, it is very curious, but this year and last there have bon a large number of calves horn in good herds exhibiting a strong element in their coats of yellow chestnut. Can the season have anything lo tto with it? Can color be subject to such capricious laws? Mas the season anything lo do with it? In tho Com pletc Gra.icr, published iu 1601, under a "i-ynoposis of the ilitTureut bleeds of iitMt t-itlle in Ureal Kritain," Class III, Dutch or Shorlhorned are ilescribsd as being iu "co. or rid and white, nearly eeiually iniveil," Djos Unit mean a ro.ui, or red with white, patches, like the early Dulchoen cows? This Duchess marking, by the way, is what the early breeders meant by "Flecked" (Heck eel Htmuion, etc, j ami not what we so ele scribe that Is, n light coat all thickly inter spersed wllh turfis of another hue, like the mats made in jails, or the drees robe of an aboriginal chief. My remurks as to the rich roan color being (.enerally approved, inas much as it especially elid jghts Ihe ev o by an optical law, that is liKMme It Is exsicllj' com plimentary to tho jeliow-green which pre ponderates in every luiulscepo, has been en (IoipissI by an amateur urtl-t to whom I men tloned mj idea.
