SYRIAN WHEAT.-A gentleman from Alaba-
ma received from the Patent Office some spring
wheat from the Holy Land, which he sowed
last spring. 1t came to maturity in seven
weeks producing a large, full head, with a
berry in every respects equal to the original.
This wheat is reputed to open in Syria in sixty
days from sowing. 1t will thus be seen that
our climate hastened its period of maturity
eleven days.

of Mr.. Parker, on the Mokelumne river, says
the Chronicle, a sample of potatoes which
grew both on the roots and tops of the vines.
One potatoe, which grew on the root, weighed
two and n half pounds; another, growing on
the top of the same vine and four feet from
the root, weighed half a pound. There were
in the sample, some half dozen smaller ones,
growing on the top of the vines
On the same ranch grew a stock of corn
which measured twenty-five feet in hight, and
eighteen feet from the root to the ear.
Mr.. and Mrs. Parker also state that they
raised water melon on their ranch which
was opened when full ripe, and the seeds had
already sprouted and were bursting into leaf.
