GUANO ON GRASS LANDS.

Wishing last spring to improve my grass
ground ut once. without breaking up the sod
and reseeding. sowed some Peruvian Guano
with very beneficial result. One piece OF
grass was in my house lot.-an open space
of several acres surrounding my dwelling,
and too much broken and covered with
scattered trees and shubbery to be ploughcd
with advantage. The soil here is dry and
gravelly, ye: with sufficient loan, and natu-
rally fertile. The piece had been in grass
for twelve or thirteen or more years, without
OF laie receiving any top dressing plaster
On this plot Of sbou' 6 acres, sowed in the
nciehborhood Of lT5 lbs. Guano per acre -
Fearing that might injurc the grass, IL this
were put on in its whole strength, used n
Of parts oi earth lean TO ono Of
Guano. am now convinced that this was
unnecessary, as far rs injury to the grass
was concerned, though it was Of advantage
in more uniformly distributin. the Guano
over the ground. When this manure 10
brought directly in contact with the delicate
germ Of u plant as It issues from the seed, it
is too stimulating undoubtedly. Such ap-
pears to be the general experience Of culti-
vators OF the more tender products Of the
garden. but the ordinary herSage Of the field
/, not injured by contact with Guano.
The Guano was sowed in the middle Of
March two spaces. one on the north. and
The other on the south side Of Of my house,

CULTURE OF FRUIT.

We have during the winter, commenced
the preparation OF n series Of articles on the
culture Of truit. which we intended to lay
before our readers, but the press of other
engagements, followed by impaired health,
has. thus far, prevented the accomplishment
Of our object. But as the season tor plant
ing and grating are at hand, we have con-
cluded 10 give the list which we would re-
commend for general culture, accompanied
by such ofhand remarks rs the subject may
suggest.
The culture Of good fruit is far too much
neglected amongst US, whether we consider
the profit to be derived f,om its pursuit, or
its beneficial influence on the health and
morals Of the community. Man is essential.
ly a frugiVorous ANIMAL and all experience,
as well as theory, shows tha, the use Of
fruit in diet, to a far greater extent than is
customary in this country, is attended with
the most salutary effects. But, the pccu-
mary consideration is The one, which, in this
sordid age, seems to present the stronges,
incentive to action. And, there cap BE- no
DOUBT, that the Judicious culture oil fruit, Mt
this tins, affords moro adequate return for
the labor and capital i. requires. than any
other branch of husbandry that is followed
in New England.
Twenty years ago, I'VE were assured by
those who proiessed to be extra wise, that
the irui, culture was being entirely Overdonc,
and the same cry has been kept up from
that time to the present. Yet we find that
the demand has increased more rapidly than
the supply, and is at this moment greater
than at any former time, with fair pros
pect for its almost indefinite extension. The
last year was one OF uncommon productive
ness, for the apple generally, throughout
this State. Those who were in haste to get
rid Of their fruit, obtained for ], different
prices. according to the kind and quality,
ranging from 81 ,2j to 81, rs per barrel; nj
though some choice new fall and early win.
ter varieties brought from 50 to So. AT
these prices, in productive years, the cul.
turc is very profitable. But those who held
on short time were well paid for so doing
The prices advanced with considerable rap.
idiry, and we suppose a fair market price for
any good apple, a, this time, is about So per
barrel
The following list, prepared with some
care will give a first rate collection Of apples
Tor New England culture. We propose, in
another article, to make some remarks on
particular varieties in the list, and to add,
also, other varieties adapted to special pur-
poses and special culture, with remarks
| thereon.

POET r Y.
THE BACHELOR.
NY MARION.


He sits alone in his quiet room,
As the evening hours 80 by;
The clock ticks on with measured tone
Aud the bachelor heaves n sigh.
He tries TO read, in aquaint old book,
Some tale OF the olden time;
Bu, he finds the story excessively dull,
And wrllien in very bad rhyme
Then he takes from his case nice cigar,
To G njoy pleasant, "smoke
But the fragrant w.ed has lost Its charm,
The charm he would invoke
He leans him back in his easy chair;
And tries TO whistle tune;
But il makes the silence more profound,
And he stops II very soon.
His room has lost the home.hks look
II used TO wear OF old;
And the pleasures he then enjoyed, now seem
Like u wearisome tale twice told.
The coffee has los, its pleasan, taste,
And the pape,s their spiri, and Wit,
His gloves are always full oi holes,
Anu his dickey does'n, fit.
All, ,h,. bachelor knows why the tune won't sc
And he knows what makes him sigh;
He has found what makes the book so dull,
And the papers so Prosy and dry
Oh, the bachelor knows that gentle voice,
And the touch OF gentle hand,
Would give his home cheerful look,
And make him happy man.
Sc he sits and ponders il in his mind,
And he thinks Of the coming years;
He really doesn't know what 10 do
He is full Of doubts aud fears.
..Suppose the lady should scorn my suit
Alas what "a terrible bother"
Take courage, good sir,-ii one says "No,"
Just go aud ask another
