STRAWBERRY PLANTING. Persons intending to plant strawberriés, or renew or i;'(*-aljraxlge their old beds, should begin at once, if they have not :11_1‘9:1«15410118 80, to prepare the ground. ' Should dry weather hold till the njd(lle of September, it ,will e all th «better for the plants to have the ground spaded or worked deeply and well manured now. Had it been done sooner, it would have been better still, T : ()f@l)* well rotted animal manure, at the bottom of the heap, or the earth innnedi'«itely under it, should be used, with chip manure in the same conditioa and old refuse of every description. The greater the variety of plant food given, the surer the planter may be of giving the special food needed by the different varieties to show their special excellencies. Old lime, ashes, and sand on eclay soil, and clay on san(ly ;s'éil, are all good. No one need be afraid of making his Ded top rich, as the Stfm\'bé;ry 18 & -great feeder and exhauster, unless it may be with ashes and animal manure. But few, however, will be troubled with an excess of vines as compared with fruit, as the tendency is to be too niggardly with time, labor and manure for a_¢rop so far in the future. “(rood plants that can be obtained as soon as the ground is well wet, if at onee, will do the best for next year. Of course, only a partial crop can be expected from this setting. The earlier the planting the better the crop, if ,the ground 1s in condition. But _good plants may do well if not planted "until after the September rains, R.

© THE REMOVAL OF BONE SPAVIN, i This disease is situated on the inner | part of the hock joint, and has two locations, and also two names, viz.: a jack, which means its appearance on the lower part and partly in front of the joint, and next, eccult spavin, which is usually situated higher up on the joint, and in some cases without any jvisible external enlargement.— The common cause in producing bone sb:win is working the colt too young, as this disease rarely occurs in horses after maturity—twists or sprains of the joint, or any cause which will produce inflammation of the cartilages of the various bones of which the hock joint is composed. After an inflimmatory period ot these parts, the car- - tilages become diseased, the synovial - fluid absorbed, bone matter thrown out, the capsular ligament involved, and the greater number of the bones united in one solid mass; a quantity of bone matter is forced outward, and. ‘ the external enlargement is called a bone spavin. | - There is often a union | of anchylosis of the joint without any -visible enlargement. It iscommon, at -the present time, to find parties who will tell the owner of a spavined horse that they can take it off or remove the bunch, as they call ‘it, with ' perfect ease—in fact, that it is an easy job. “Some of them will tell of removing the spavin and dissolving bone without removing the hair, I would have you look out for these fellows; they can do too mueh. 'Fhe usual remedies which.they carry with them for that purpose are composed, in part, of the ¢ following powerful escharotics, and ~ wherever applied will always leave a bad blemish: Corrosive sublimate, thuriatic acid, and sulphurie acid. Bone spavin eannot be removed.--Supposing we allow this operator to tise an axe or any other sharp instrument, whereby he may remove the external enlargement, still the spavin would remain, as-the tumor or bunch “is only the excess of bone matter thrown out. After applying the dressing,which eauses violent inflammation, and hides the outlines of the bhunch in a few days, the sloughing of the part - takes place, the morbid part resembles i asitfast removed, leaving a hole or . sunken part on the spavin. About this time the owner pays the fee agreed upon, and both parties are well pleased. The doctor is one of migratory habits, and travels for another joh t:\?nother field. He is not long absewf when the owner finds the horse suffering the most intense pain, and after weeks and months of the ‘most careful nursing and dressing, comes to the conclusion that he hias been duped. The spavin is there.still, ‘but the skin has only been rémoved, and -the joint badly blemished. Any person who says he can remove bone spavin, I at once class as dishonest, . or else ignorant of the disease, and would request the owners of horses to diréet him to me and I will give him one hundred dollars for performing i the operation.— Live Stock Journal,

RIPENING OF FRUIT, A seientifie paper propounds a novel idea about making fruit ripen early and quiekly. A certain Mr. Stoll (not the editor of this paper) is the experimenter. The idea is applicable to the season of fruit just at hand. Acting upon the principle, that renewal of the earth immediately surrounding the root increases their activity, and accelerates. the maturing of all: parts | of the plant, including the fruit, Mr. Stoll remoyed the earth about an early pear tree, eight weeks before the normal period of ripening, for a space of thirteen to fifteen feet in diameter, and to such an extent as to 'leave a depth of earth over tha roots of only about 2.24 inches, which could be thoroughly warmed by the sun. He was surprised- not only by the ripening of the fruit in the middle of July, but also by its superior juiciness dnd flavor. Im another experiment, the removal of the earth from:the north side of the tree, alone, causéd the fruit’ on that side to ripen several days earlier than that on the south side,— Frequent watering was of course necessary in the above experiments,

Z 5 LYE FOR APPLE TREES, We notice a great deal of questioning as to whether strong lye from wood-ashes can be used as a wash for destroying insects on apple-trees. We wish to state.that we have an orchard upon which we have used strong lye waghes for over thirteen years, The application was made every -year, between the middle of May and -the first of June, in order to destroy ~ the bark lice. It has accomplished fully the purposeé for which it was ‘used, and the orchard is considered the finest collection of apple trees in the town. The trees are thrifty, bear every year, and are almost entirely free from bark lice.—Correspondent Prairte Farmer, : 1

MERINOS, COTSWOLDS AND LEICESTERS i COMPARED, - Thomas . Key, in a correspondence to the Watertown' (Mo.) Chronicle, says: ' s ~ I am somewhat interested in wool growing myself, and would be obligedto have a space in your columns for a few remarks. : : The Cotswold sheep is known to be the best full blood for wool raising ~qualities, -and close upon its heels coines the Leicester breed, whose wool is only a shade shorter, but of superior ‘quality, besides the Leicester being a healthier and better mutton shec ). I have been crossing between ’.c 2 two, which I find‘ produces a i . & general purpose sheep than < =7, combining the growth of the Co'»~ ¢ <l with the quality of the Leicc: . . which is most sought by the ~c-l combers. I will show you the aver: 2 weights of the grades of some o ")y own raising: Forty-six fleeces (onchalf Cotswold and one-half Leicest~. ), 506 pounds; seventy-one fleeces (onchalf Cotswold and one-half common native), 630 pounds. . ' It is*within my knowledge that the Merino bred to long wool stock will not be successful, because they are the extremes, with the drift in favor of the Merino, it beipg the stronger maturgd sheep. Wh)r? . Because they will not m_ainltnin the combing qualities so much desired. MinxesoTA is famous for her wheat. How long she will remain so is another question, as {‘the wheat belt” seems to be constantly changing and moving westward. The St. Paul Press gives an account of a large farmm on which'the great staple is very successfully produced. Out of one thousand acres nine hundred are in wheat. During harvest one hundred hands are employed at from $2.50 to $3 per day, who are assisted by ten MecCormick reapers and four steam threshers. The wheat is not stacked, but hauled from the field to the threshers, and from thence to the warehouse, put into cars from the wagons, and sent to Milwaukee. The price obtained last seacon was $1.20 per bushel—the freight being ahout sixteen cents. The crop of forty thousand bushels brought a neat little sum, and the profits above all experises, including ipterest 01l money invested, is set down at twefn'lty-ﬁve per-cent. The expense is about ten dollars per acre. The yield of the farm last year was twenty-two bushels per acre, and this year it should be nearly if not quite as great.

/ (MAKING VINEGAR. - I noticed an inquiry how to make cider vinegar without the use of chémicals or drugs. My way is simply to tear brown paper into strips of eight or ten inches long, and four or five'in width, dip them into West India molasses, so that both sides shall be covered., - To three gallons of cider:l put| in six of these pieces, and set. the jug where it will keep about milk warm for ten days. - You will have good sharp vinegar that will keep. The paper saturated with the molasses will férm a mother, and a piece of it put igto sweetened water makes a. nice ¥inegar plant that will grow rapidly and keep a supply of very good vinegar if kept in a warm place.—Correspondent Country Gentleman. A FEED CUTTER. A correspondent of the Verinnit Farmer gives his method of consorting a mower into a feed cutter i tic following manner: Plaece the mac i standing upright on the back end. - brace it firmly. Then brace—~up ihe bar so that it will be steady, anc it - | board on the top of the fingers of li» guard-board, so that thie hay coniot get over the bar. Then make a tahic to feed on. - Throw the machine ivto gear, put the hay on the table and turn the wheel. The hay is fed again.t the under side of the bar. With a horse power and belt to the wheel, this makes a first-rate power feed cutter, doing the work fast and well.

RAISED BISQUIT. | Heat three cups of sweet milk with one of hutter; work it warm into the butter, with a teaspoon of salaratus. Have ready some yeast or light sponge, the same as for bread, work this in when the mixture.is milk warm; mix it well, but not stiff, and set it in a warm place to raise. When light mold into -cakes, let them set a while (five minutes or so), prick the top of each; bake in a quick oven. These are similar to those made from bread dough. (fold biscuit can be warmed to taste like new, by turning cold water upon them to wet the crusts, then warming them through in a moderate oven.

‘ SOWING MIXED GRAIN. A correspondent of the Jowrnal of the Farm says that he sowed last season a mixture of two bushels of oats to one of wheat per acre, and got as a result, fully dneafourtlhpore grain, by ineasure, than on the! portion of the field seeded with oats alone. For stock feed he recommends mixed seeding. He finds barley, oats and peas do well together, and is inclined to think that the more kinds of grain are sown together, the larger will be the erop, in weight, obtained.

5 TO KEEP POTATOES. ' A correspondent of the Mobile Register says of the best manner of keeping this esculent: I always put my potatoes up in slacked lime, sprinkling it thoroughly among and over them throughout the barrels. It takes no great deal of lime, but it prevents the potatoes from getting strong. Northern potatoes would soon get strong in our climate unless so treated, but lime and a dry room keeps them good the year round. 3 e — BosToN HARBOR came near rivaling the Potomac River with a steamboat massacre on the 13th inst. The Favorite, with 150 excursionists,—just the number on board the murderous Wawaset,—was found to be on fire, and a panic among the passengers was the natural result. Fortunately, a vessel came alongside in time to.relieve them of the necessity of jumping into the water, ‘as the’p?lssen':ers of the Wawaset were compelled 10 do, and no lives were lost. s

When the damage done by the .torm which visited New York, New Jo wco, and Pennsylvania, on the 12th ins!. ig summed up by the aid of the telegraph, it is found to be very grea(. On‘the Erie, the New Jersey Souti.ern, the Pennsylvania Central, ihe Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore, and in fact nearlyrevery throiirh line in these States, miany milcs of track were washed away, or so covered with land-slides or . ‘floods as to be nearly impassable. Pittsburgh reports that so violent a rainfall has pever before occurred there, and throughout the county bridges, culverts, dams, and roadways have been destroyed, and a great deal of private property devastated, e : : o ;

EELLS; Supt. . e Tui Leavenworth_ (Kan.) ZTimes mentions a Federal office-holder in that State who was removed after three vears, service, who thus'footed up the financial results of official life: “1 have held office three years, at a sal2ry of $6,000 per year, $lB,OOO in all; of that sum I spent:several thousand to influence the Legislat'ux‘e, and have lived at the rate of $5,000 a year. I have put £20,000 in a wholesale dry goods establishment, and $lO,OOO inta bank stock; it will cost. me %25,000 to purchase a private residence, and T will purchase one-half of a newspaper for $7,000, and will deposit the re‘maining $20,000.00f my salary in bank 'to run the paper.” The (ivil Service of the United States produces some extraordinary aocguntantg. as well as -accounts. v ‘

The Tlon. William Allen, Democratic eandidate for Governor of Ohio, was famous in his younger days for his tremendous voice. Among the many . stories concerning his vocal powers is one that while speaking at’ Philadelphia from the deck of a steamer to a crowded assemblage on the wharf, the proprietor of a rival steamer, who was also a political opponent, -sought to silence him by blowing his whistle. The steam organ screeched its loudest, but the story goes that the orator not only spoke so loud as completely to drown the noise of the whistle but was distinctly heard in all parts of the city. If the latter assertion be true, which is just alittle doubtful, the coming cainpaign in Ohio will be a pretty noisy one if Mr. Allen takes the stump.

A correspondent of the Lafayette Courier sends that paper sorme accounts of what is probably the largest and best managed farm in the world. It is in Knox county, Illinois, and is owned by Mr. Michael Sullivant, formerly of Ohio. The farm comprises 40,000 acres, and is thirty-two miles in circumference. Five hundred -men and teams are kept constantly employed in. working it:" There is not a mile of wooden” fencing on the place, the entire farm being hedged with osage orange into 640 acre sections. Each section is numbered and has its own “boss,” tenants, workingmen, farmhouses, barns, etec. The whole is in perfect order, and furnishes a fine example of what can be accomplished in the agricultural line by ‘energy, enterprise and systew, . A

Tur colored citizens of Ohio will hold a Convention. at Chillicothe on the 22d inst., to take into consideration their political situation, and the cause of the dissatisf?eﬂon existing among thein concerning their political status.
