following is frt'in an old eranburr"

grower in Massachusetts.

bog and swamp muck.

material. There should then be put on

tUis,Jevel surface,' about four• inches in thick iio.-s of swamp uitiek or peat, which

•should he again covered with about thrc&'jw

inches iu depth of ioue sand, free from

grass or its fibres, and aim from clay or

i,. stones. Lt is not important what the color or quality of the j?and. if it he it ad-

'"adhesive and is free from roots and gras-.

••m TIATK OF PLANTING.—From the fir.-FFE of April to the middle of June—on wet

grouud. continuing through the suiuuier

.'to plant, if eouvcnicnt. and as it is wish-

•,y-i.ed. In dry land those planted in summer

sometimes fail on account of drought and

'heat. Those set late, lose a year's growth

and may as well be set in spring, if the land be not too wet,.

MAN.NKK OF I'l.Axrixii.—The form of

planting which lias resulted in the most

rapid advancement of growth and pro

duction, .is to. scatter whole vines upon a

\tiui or peat surface: then'press them in

to the mud with your toot, and scatter

over them light satid, about oue inch in

depth. 'PqfcheS 'planted iu this manner seem to be a year ahead of those planted

Wc\er, \s to set them iu hills at eighteen inches apart. Take a pointed stick, say four inches in tliickntss, through which

•t

eight inches

from the point insert a

\-guage rod eighteen inches loug, which

•^serves to govern the distance from one

ihill to another. With this pointed stick

'puncturc the ground in uniform rows, in-

Bert into these holes a small handful of Mnfcs, aDd press the mud around and

•among them, spreading thetn about as much as need be.

QUALITY OF VINKS.—Vines should be

procured from meadows which have borne well, and of good fruit, as the best way

of knowing good bearers. There are

several species, such as egg-shaped, bell-

,-v

shaped,

and cherry-shaped. The formers

are most approved, and are said to be four or live vjeeUa eatWet.

Cui.TlvATIO.N.—The craaburry needs

little cultivation. Having 'yohr I

property prepared

hand, put them in a basket, and carry

•y

After the second year, let

them off.

The third year you will get

them aloue-

a fair crop, the fourth will probably be

the best, it is abt as' yet ascertained hoic many years they may do well. Fair

bearing is considered one bushel to a rod

there have been instances of oue barrel |j

to the rod. Hushes and buuehes of weeds

aud grass may at any time be cut out.

1'LOWING.—1'lowing is not absolutely necessary. More than half the mead

ows which I saw were not flowablc. the

water may remain ou all wiuter. aud let off in March. It should be let on about

the —Oth or 25th of May, aud agaiu the

1st of June, for not exceeding thirty-six

hours after this it is not needful. Bios- ... sonis are injured by the water remaining

.von too long, the object of which is to I

flowing there is little to fear from thcni.

'should be so arranged as to easily flood 4 V. or clear the surface, and the sides of
