 Wood slloald be felled or cut down be- tween the months of November and March. This circumstance renders it better fire wood, and some say more durable timber. And wo,d which is cut, when the sap is down, orsin the ro,ts, is most apt to send furth sprouts CT suckers, and thus renew its growth.

 In applying tue axe ta a woodinf, which the owner would wish to perpelaale by {, series of reproduction, the best method is to cut down every tree as far as you pro- .ceed. This will give the sprouts from tile stumps, and other young trees the advania- ges of free circulation of the air, and fair exposure to the sum-, But if some of the large trees are left, the shoots whicl, spring up from the stnmps ef the others will lan- guish bcaeath their shade.

 That part of a aJEoed lot, which has been cui over should be carefully fenced from cat tie which willoihcrwise destroy the young shoots bv browsing on them. Care should also be taken to break of part of the shoots around the stumps, leaving only two or three oftle most thrifty. By such man. agement, a wood lot might last for centu- ries and De a source ofgreat profit and util- .ity.-N. E. Farmer.
