Mr.. f. Holbrook, a distinguished
farmer of Brattlebborough, VT, has
published long communication on tn,
the subject of cultivating Indian corn,
in which we find the following mode
adopted by him in selecting seed corn
While upon my present subject, / will
say word about saving seed-corn. All
experienced farmers are aware that the
productiveness and early ripening of any
kind of corn depends very much upon
the manner Of selecting the seed. |

Agricultural.
The Ounce

Has been too long the dispised occu
pant of the neglected and obscure part
of the garden, and has been supposed t.
require a wet soil, but despite the ole
prejudices, it will flourish on a greater
variety of soils, than any other fruit,
from the moist muck swamp to the gravel
ridge. They require to be kept free
from grass and weeds, and thoroughly
manured, being rank feeders They
may be propogated from seed, layers,
and cuttings, and also by grating and
budding, where the same kinds are de-
sired to be maintained. The seeds of
the ounce reproduce the same sorts with
greater certainty than those of other
fruits, still varying some, and hence the
different shapes from pear to apple.
They may be grown as trees or bushes
The finest fruit is produced from single
standards with wcll-f formed heads. The
only excuse for growing them in bush
form is, to supply second trunk, if the
first should be destroyed by the borer
To propagate by layers, lay down
young shoots in the spring and cover
with dirt, so as to leave two or three
buds above ground. Roots will gener-
ally be formed in autumn, when the lay
er and new root may be removed from
the parent tree and set out in rows
Such as have not rooted may remain for
the second year, when they may be
transplanted. Ounce cutting should be
plac, d not less than ten or twelve inches
deep, leaving but small portion above
ground, and mulching with dry leaves
or brush to give shade. These will be
fit to remove for standards in two or
three years.
AS remedy for the borer in the
ounce tree, charcoal, blacksmiths Gin
ders, and unleached ashes, have each
been tried in turn, and, as far as we
know, without effect. The only sur
method is to extract the insect with a
knife, and cover the wound with grating
wax. Thomas recommends, as a RENE
dy for the borer, grafting the ounce on
the pear stock. Ounces are sometimes
budded on the common thorn
Ounce bushes should be trained will
single trunk and low bushy head
leaving no shoots or suckers to draw
their nourishment from the main stem
Dig up the ground we'll in spring o.
early summer, and scatter from two t,
four quarts of salt over the surface a
far as the roots extend; after which
spread thick layer of straw or fores
leaves around them, and they will tax,
care ofthemselves until the fruit harvest
when you will be amply repaid for al
your trouble. 1t may be necessary
however, when the fruit is well set OF
the branches, to thin it out somewhat
leaving only the fairest and best formed
specimens, evenly distributed, to proven
the limbs from breaking down with thei
burden.
