Fertilizers for Pro *. " ‘
In relation to appi-opi-ia_l.e tbi-, ,: _
trees, a diversity of opiuloll Pl"~“'“"_l5-__
All agree that certain substances exist in
plants and trees, and that these must be
contained in the soil to produce growth,
elaboration, and perfection. , 'I‘o supply
these, some advocate the use of what are
termed “ special niannrcs,” others ridicule
the idea. I would suggest whether this
is not a difference in language rather than
principle; for in special 'manurcs wli ch
contain these elements ? And do_they not
in practice affairs the seal of their appro-
bation to the theory which they oppose .7
Explode this doctrine, and do you not de-
stroy the principle of iuanuring necessity
of a rotation of crops? Trees exhaust
the soil of certain ingredients, and, like
animals, must have their appropriate food.
All know how difllcult it is to make. a
fruit tree flourish on the spot fromwhich
an old tree of the same species has been
removed.
The great practical question now agi-
tating the comiiiunity is, how shall we as-
certain what fertilizing elements are ap-
propriate to a particular species of vege-
tation ? To this two replies are reiider-
ed. Some say analyze the crop, others,
the soil. Each, I think, maintains a
truth ; and both together, nearly the
whole truth. We need the analysis of
the crop to teach us its ingredients, and
that of the soil, to ascertain whether it
contains thosc~i_ngredlents ; and if it does
not, what fertilizer must be applied to
supply them. -Thus, by analysis, we learn
that nearly a quarter pa.rt of the consti-
tutents of the pear, the grape, and the
strawberry, consists of potash. This
abounds in new soils, and peculiarly adapts
them to the production of these fruits ;
but having been extracted from soils, long
under cultivation, it is supplied by wood
ashes or potash,‘ the value of which has of
late greatly increased in the estimation of
cultivators.
Among the arts of modern cultivation,
('1':-. Ii.-l‘
uiiiversal experience attests to the great _
advantage of ‘fmulching” the soil around
the fruit trees, as a means of fertilization,
and of preservation from droutli and heat,
so common with‘ us in mid-summer. In
illustrationof this, experiment has proved
that on dry soils where the earth has
been strown_ with straw, the crops have
been as large without manure as with it,
where evaporation has disengaged the
fertilizing elements of the soil.——MARsHAL

'-'-=2;-.'. .;'._.-;i'ting it into sugar, and the
i’ ~. ~...ion is that it will not crystalize.~—
Inc following paragraph, however, from
a Georgia paper settles that important
fact, and adds to the value of the
plant :
Georgia Sugar.
Dr. Daniel Lee, Tcrrel professor of Ag-
riculture in Franklin College, has just
shown us a very beautiful specimen of su-
gar, made from the Chinese Sugar Cane,
on the plantation of Mr. W. J. Eve, near
this city. The entire process, from the
cutting of the cane to the completion of
the boiling, occupied but about three
hours, and the result is a fine specimen of
crystalized sugar.
Dr. Lee thinks that from one to "two
thousand pounds of sugar can be produced
to the acre, on Georgia land, of moderate
richness. The richest lands are not, he
thinks, best adapted to the culture of the
cane. The specimens of syrup noticed
yesterday, and of sugar mentioned above,
prove beyond all doubt that we can pro-
duce sugar aiid molasses on our farms
equal in flavor to any other made.

THE PUMPKIN APPLE P11-:.———'l"lie recipe
for this economical and excellent affair, is
thus given by a lady who took the pre-
mium for some presented at the Sagado-
hock County Fair.
“Cut in thin slices the same as for
stewing the common pinnpkin, steam it
till soft. Then fill a plate same as for
apple pie, and if the plate be large, put in
three table spoonfuls of vinegar, and a
cup of sugar, flavoring with lemon or
spice—then bake slowly.” A
The previous steaming may be dis-
pensed with, being only a matter of taste.
We have eaten good pies made by slicing
the raw pumpkin into the plates. Less
“ sweetening’? than named above might
suit some tastes better. In this respect
there is a great saving, as well as in the
difference of value of the pumpkin and
the apple. Let everybody try the “pump-
kih apple pie.”—Go.rdz'7ier .T0u.riial.

Q‘ The Beltoii (Texas) Independent
mentions the production of wholesome
and palatable bread from the seed of the
Chinese sugar cane, and says ; “ Accord-
ing to all accounts, from this remarkable
plant, will now be manufactured molasses,
sugar, alcohol, sparkling and still vinegar,
paper, starch, dye stuffs and bread. Mr.
Taylor showed us a pair of pautaloons
which had been dyed with a decoction
made from the fodder and peelings of the
cane. It makes a pretty purple. The
hull of the seeds makes the finest and
most lasting dye.”
Q»-
SAviNc CAi3BAcss.—Tlic best way to
preserve cabbages green all winter, so
that their good qualities shall in no man-
ner deteriorate is as follows :
As late this month as the weather will
allow, dig out your cabbages that you
have set apart for winter nse—dig trench-
es, say eighteen or twenty inches apart,
and from twelve.to twenty feet in length,
as may be most convenient, and in ac-
cordance with the qnantity to be preserved
—transplant your cabbages firmly in
these trenches, as closely as they will
stand together. When your bed is fin-
ished, raise a platform some eighteen or
twenty inches high, over them, which can
beinade of any refuse posts, roll or boards '
about a place ; across this place a few
bean poles or lath, and upon the whole
throw a quantity of cornstalks, straw, or
any material of this kind, as a protection
against wet and frost—aud you can get
green cabbage up to April, finer than if
plucked from the gardenin October.

A SURE REMEDY son A FnLoN.—It is
said by somebody, who pretends to know
all about it, that the following is a sure
remedy for the felon: “Take a pint of
common soft-soap, and stir it in air—slackecl
lime till it is of the consistency of glazier’s
putty. Make a leather thimble, fill it
with this composition, and insert the fin-
ger therein, and change the composition
once in twenty minutes, and a cure is cer-
tain.” We happen to know that the
above is a certain remedy, and recommend
it to any one who may be troubled with
that disagreeable ai|mel1t.—Bufl"alo Ad-

“I take a bar of brass, which, when
on the carth’s surface, actually weighs
fifteen pounds. VVhen I ascend to three
miles up in the atmosphere and weigh the
brass bar, it actually weighs, by a. spring
balance, only seven a.iid a half pounds;
and again, five miles up, positively only
three pounds and a quarter. What is
the cause of this? The want of atmos-
plierical pressure on it, and the sun’s at-
traction, which becomes more apparent
the nearer we approach his orbit.”

niar Near Edith, South Carolina, a
crop of four acres in Sunflowers is being
gathered. The seed will be used for oil,
and to feed cattle and poultry, as in the
south of France ; but the chief object is
to employ the fibres of the stalks for pa-
per making. If the cultivation succeds,
it is expected to supply abundant materi-
als for fine writing and printing paper,
as well as fine and coarse for paper liaiig-

L. B. Wiiiou'r—Dear Sir: I have for many
years been acquainted with tliemediciual vir-
tues of your syrup, “The ‘Scrofulous Anti-
dote,” huve used it myself, employed it in
my family, and frequently recommended it to
my friends and acquaintance, when suffering
fi-om an obstinate cough and other symptoms
of incessant or even decided and long eon-
tinucd pulmonary diseases. I have watched
its operation and effects very closely, and
never knew it to act injiiriously. In almost
every instance when I have used it, or seen it
Deployed, it has worked charmingly and ben-
eficially-iiever failing to give some relief,
and generally doing decided good. It is,
moreover, pleasant to the taste. I cheerfully
recommend it for the cases it is designed to
benefit, believing it really a very desirable
compound, and a medicine that needs only
to be properly tried to be highly appreciated.
Yours respectfully and gratefully,
