The Farm and Household. Provide a Fruit Garden. ___[¥rom the Indiana Farmer.] 2 No farm is complete without its fruit garden. Fruit is the qpatural food of man, especially in -the warm portions of the year. It is palatable, healthful and cheap. The culture of fruit is among the most agreeable and elevating of all field and garden labors. . It is the poetry of farming. It: cultivates the taste, elevates tlie mind i and refines the whole man. ' A mamr of llow instincts and debasing habits, } cannot be a successful horticulturist. These two things are incompatible.’ ‘Those farmers who value the health, pleasure and refinement of their families cannot neglect the fruit garden. In this garden should be found the strawberry, raspberry, blackberry, currant, gooseberry and grape. It isso _easy. to.get a start of these excellent fruits, and afterwards so easy to inerease the stock that there can be no ‘reasonable excuse for any to be desti--tute of them. o :

e THE STRAWBERRY = ; is hardy, will grow in almost any lo: * cation, but delights in a rich, warm soll, and pays for thbrbggh culture, in abyndant, rich and luscious fruit. “For garden culture, plant in rows about two and a half feet apart, and “one foot between the plants; culti- : \'ateiqéell,‘ d- keep the runners cut off so t.h{tfi%he whole force of the plant may be ‘concentrated in the fruit, Should you'wish to increase your plants, let the runners take their ‘course and you will soon have all the ‘plants needed. © . 1. 1 "THE RASEBBERRY . will follow the strawberry in close succession, and is one of the best of ~our summer fruits. This should be _planted in hills about four feet 'ft_part each way, and trained to stakes. The ‘new wood of one year is the fruit‘bearing wood of the next year.” After the fruitis all harvested, it is. well ‘to remove the old wood, that tlie strengtli of the plant may be concentrated in the'new to fit it for an abundant crop the following season. There are many varieties of this excellent berry, ‘but perhaps th®re is none better adapted to general culfivation than the Im--proved Black Cap. ; : - ~ THE BLACKBERRY. : The raspberry is scarcely gone before tke blackberry comes with all its richness;just suited to the heated season, being at once exceedingly pal- - atable arid especially adapted to prevent or ‘cure some of the diseases pe_culiar to the hot weather. It should “be cultivated as ‘much: asi the ;raspberry, and never fails to reward the - gardener for generous care. The Lawton still holds his own well, but ‘the Kittatinny is the most’ desirable of the standard varieties. ' Try new varieties sparingly until thoroughly esled. o

_ CURRANTS AND GOOSEBERRIES are so well known that one would, expect.to see them in every garden, but we donot find it so. And where they, are to be found, they are often in a; neglected- spét, thickly inatted with grass and weéds. Even,in this state of utter neglect. they furnish a meager supply of fruit; but they deserve better culture and’amply repay the gardener for his best care. : - The gOoSél)erry fur-ln;ishes ouy earliest fruit for pastry and desert, and meets a special demand of the season ; while the currant niay with proper care be continued through a long season, and- when ripe is healthful as well as palatable. “Even while we write our mouth waters for such a dish as was so often furnished in our boyhood days at our mother’s table. Do not neglect this excellent fruit. ~ Of the gooseberry for the farm garden, perhaps nothing is better than fionghbon’s Seedling. Of the'currant, the Red Dutch is standird and excelient. - The Cherry and Versailles. are larger and excellent under good cultare. o b e &, a

= GRAPES. =~ - The grape is a fruit of _‘*ages and ~many climes. It has come down to -us from the earliest generations. We are sorry that its rich juices have been so often perverted and used for unholy purposes. Yet'it is a God-given fruit, excellent, and in itself innoeent. 1t should find a place.in every garden. A few vines, well cultivated and trained, will furnish an abundant supply for a family. The cultivation lis easy, the trainihg not difficult, and ‘the yield generally abundant. _The Concord is one.of the hardiest and most valuable. Ives’ Seedling is ex.ecellerit. = The, Delaware 'in guality surpasses-either of the others,- but is - aslow grower and less hardy and pro- - ductive. Farmers, do not neglect to ;put out small fruits. . Any good nurs--eryman will be glad to supply .the

_'VALUE OF EVERGREENS 'AMONG - FRUIT TREES.—A -well grown evergreen - tree gives out continually an ‘exodium of warmth and moisture that reaches a distance of its area in ‘height; and when the tree. planters advocate shelter belts, surrounding,an - orchard of fifty or more acres, wlien the infifience of such belt can only trace a distance of the height of the treps on said belt, they will do that ‘'which will prove of little' value., To .'-’Smeljoxjate climate, to assist in pre- ~ vention of injury, against extreme elimatic cold in- winter and of the - frosting of the germ bud of fruit in . the spring, all orchards should have planted, in and among them indigerimrinately. evergreen trees of distances ~ each of not more than 150 feet api{'u't. s%‘a course pursued will give health. %o tree, and be productive of more - regular and uniform erops of fruit.— - At all events, it is worth the trial, and wbe glad if our readers can in- . form us oiipractical experiments on . the matter.—Scientific American. ,

~HeapiNe-ur CABBAGES.—The great drawback in growing these success- . fully and to profit is in failing to have _ a large proportion of head. To make _ them head uniform and well, hoe.oft- _ en, edpecially in dry weather, and as . soon as the surface dries after rains. ;{*fin w’t allow a crust to form around . them. A thimbleful of salt scattered - over them oecasionally will be found # Tomato CaTsup.—To lialf a bushel _of skinned tomatogs, add one quart of bes ,m pound of salt; one- _ fourth pound black pepper ; one-fourtl | Bleasure); oue ounce cloves, nd two unds ‘of brown sugar, Boil this Bl Wheh voil .

- Morus IN CARPETS.— Moths will work in carpets in rooms that ate kept warm in the winter as well asiin the summer titne. ‘A sure method of removing the pests is to pour strong alum water on the floot to the distance of half a yard around the edges before laying tlie carpets. Then once or twiceé during . the season sprinkle dry salt over the carpet before sweeping. Insects do not like salt, and sufficient. adheres to the carpet to, prevent their alighting upon it. .~ . PRESERVING GRAPES.—Pick them when fully ripe, on_a pleasant day. Let stand in the(g’rape-house;for ten days or two weeks, until all moisture is gone and the stems 'are perfectly dry. Then pack in a small, shallow box, about fourteen by- ten, and four inches deep, after cutting out all the imperfect. berries. . Pack close:and tight; and use no paper whatever. H. G. Warner, who has kept grapes nearly into mid-summer, lays down four essential réquisites: They must be ripe, eléan, dry and cold. . They are packedin boxes containing five, twelve and twenty-four pounds. These are placed in the cellar under his barn, where the temperature is often twen-ty-eight degrees tfir_ough the winter, Grapes will not freeze in this temperature’ when kept in boxes.. He is careful' not to place so m;my' in each box as to pfess on and crush the lower ones. The boxes are natled up and set oné upon another, so as to occupy but little room. . Sl

Hard Mouey Convention:in Cincin--2 . nati.

" On the 25th of October next there will be held at Cincinnati a convention for the .purpose of furthering the cause of a currency based upon the metals, gold and silver. -The call for: this convention was. issued at a meeting held in Richmond, Va., on the 4th of May last, ‘and prompts the following from the liard money men of New York: Y '

. “Whereas, at a public meeting, held at the tobaceo exchange,.in the city of Richmond, on the 4th of May last, a resolution was-adopted calling a convention of delegates from the prominent business localities of the country, to asscmble at Cincinnati on the 25th of October' rext, to confer about measures to restore specié payments aud to correct the evils of our national revenue system. B : Resolved, 1. That, discarding all party feeling, and’ believing that foreign and. domestic commerce and al) | productive induStry must languish ‘under a currency depreciated and fluctuating in value, and a revenue system which is unequal in-its burdens, we respond to the Richmond call, and that twenty-five delegates be named from New York, by the chair‘man of this meeting, to attend the pro--posed Cincinnati convention. ‘ . 2. That we inflexibly set our faces against all schemes for curreney inflation, or :any form of paper currency—“greenbacks or-otherwise”—so long as that currency shall consist-of irredeemiable promises to pay money. And we will oppose any policy which has- not a direct purpose tO _establish the currency on a-par with, and actually inconvertible with coin. - . 3. That- we cordially commend to the friends of ‘a’ sound currency throughout the United States the proposed - conference. at Cincinnati, andwe urge the general appointment of delegates to the convention, . | 4. That we do not pledge ourselves te the specific measures brought forward in the Richmond convention; yet those measures'are worthy of and should receive just' consideration, but our delegates arein no way committed or instructed in that respect. =~

New York has gallantly regponded fo the call by the appointment of a, delegation. - Michigan Will hold a State convention on the 14th day of October, at which delegates will be appointed to the’Cincinnati convention. This movement, the Ft. Wayne Sentinel remarks, is certainly in the

right direction, and should receive hearty encouragement. If a national party can be formed having-for its central idea the resumption of specie payments, it will undoubtedly succeed. e D — o A Religious View. ‘ ' [From the Vicksburg Herald.] “You see, when you don’t shuffle off this mortuary eoil. 4nd the spirit presents itself at the golden gates,” argued a colored revivalist at the levee, yesterday, “Gabrill gwine to ask you what church yon ’longed to in the flesh.” - . Ry , : “Yes, I spect so,” said the listener. “Ef you’longed to the Missiumary Baptist, he gwine tole you walk right in and set by the foot-stool. - . ~ “Ef you ’longed to the Methodist church, he say stay on de: outside whar your shoutin’ won't ’sturb de angels.” .. ‘ : vt “Ef you’s a’Piscumpalion—". “Hold on, Mr. Middleton. Dey ain’t no niggers ‘Piscumpalon. - Dems. all white folks,” interrupted the listener. “Dat don't make no difference,” continued the expounder of religion; “de principle’s de same ain’t it%: Jf you 're a ’Piscumpalion, de angels say to you; ‘Go over dere 'mong de white folks. 2 MR : ; ;

“Ef you ‘s Caffolics, -de angel p’int you to de Virgin Mary and tell you—" “But, look 'heah, My, Middleton, s’posen he did'n’t ’long to no church in de flesh'?” queried the listener. “Well, what he be doin’ dar, den ?” asked the colored-divine scornfully. “Well,” replied the unconverted sinner, “I thought in dat case, he could do as he pleage,” =~ = - T& B e RIS . Wasn’t Fooling. - . A St. Louis boy was recently presented with a jack-knife, with which, buy-like, he cut and magked ‘everything that came in his way, from the table to the cat’s tail.. - P - A few days after he had become the happy possessor of the knife, his father was startled by seeing two men bring: home the young hopeful in a very dilapidated condition. His face seemed to be cut and bruised and covered with blecod, The father was, of course, very much alarmed, and inquired of the boy who hit him, “Nothing did n’t -hit ‘me, sir,” the boy answered, between his sobs, “it wasg-only a mile kicked me in the eye.” - “A mule kicked you in the éye,/eh ?” replied the father. “Haven’t 1 teld you a thousand times or more, that mules and ‘gunpowder were not . fit things for boys to fool ‘with? * What were yon doing to the mule?” ; “I was n't fooling with ’im, at all"’ said the boy, I was only trying to cut my name on his back.” - .

The Catholic Church of the.Sacred Heart, Chicago, was dedicated on Sunday, Sept. 15, with jmposing ceremonies. Bishop Hennessey, of Du‘btu}\ue, preached the sermon, which is spoken of as a very eloquent, impassioned effort, he being a very fine ex tempore speaker. 'The address of His Emi~ nence was a glorification of the Church. He said the American Republic in “numbers, unity,organization and freedom,” was no mdre to be compared with the kingdom “over which Pious IX is head,” than a “molehill with a mountain.” =~ The Bishop alluded to the Protestant Reformation as the “rebellion . that divided the Church,” and to the Reformers as “the mebels who came out of it three hundred years ago,” stigmatizing Luther and his coadjutors as “banditti, robbers, murderers, libertines.” : This is certainly drawing it pretty strong and sharp upon our ancestors, as well as on s ‘poor devils who (as the good Bishop declares) are now “separated from the Kingdom of Christ on earth.” —LaPorte Herald. : G

The advertising patronage of the paper indicates not only the enterprise of the town and t_be,' county where it is published, but it is also an infallible groof that the business men are possessed , of vim and go-ahead-ativeness. Show us a busi-’ ness community that don’t advertise, and we’ll show-yon a community where bnsiness is stagnated. 'l‘he man who advertiges in. a' liberal, yet discreet manner, is sure to take the lead of his neighbors who don’t ‘spend a cent for printer's ink. It is also conceded that a man who advertises keeps a larger and better.and more complete stock of goods, and sells cheaper than the man who donlt advertise.
