Col. HARRIs:-I see in the
Cultivator for Jan. 18th, that the
Hon Q. Mason, Commissioner Of
Patents, warns the public against
cultivating the Chinese Sugar
Cane in the vicinity Of Dourah
corn, Guinea corn. aud Broom
corn. 1t is equally necessary to
warn the public against cultivat-
ing it in the vicinity Of Maize or
Indian corn, jas the cane hybrid
yes as readily with Indian corn as
with others. A neighbor..of mine
planted both in his garden last
year. The cane, growing by the
side Of the corn, presented quite
"a different aspect to that growing
remote from the corn-having
small, imperfect ears growing on
the panicles among the seed.

of for feeding hogs and cattle, but

in feeding it to sheep, or specula-
tions on the subject. What do

pnusiso.-There Is, perhaps, no
subject In horticulture so little under
stood as the principles upon which
pruning Is found. The object In pru-
ming fruit trees Is chiefly to hasten or
regulate the crop Of fruit. and induce
or retard the development Of wood
growth. With reference TO the former,
more depends upon summer pruning
aud disbudding. Trees are frequently
barren from excessive wood growth,
which Is weakened by pruning during
summer. II IL well understood fact
among scientific cultiyators. that sum-
mer pruning weakens, and winter pru-
ming strengthens the wood growth
Hence the practice Of nurserymen In
pruning young trees alter the seasons
growth is completed. to increase their
luxuriance.
Trees that have arrived ut u bearing
state, properly mancdge during growth
would probably require no winter
pruning. unless the removal Of large
and misplaced branches. In the alb
stract, Il seems n negative practice TO
encourage a luxuriant growth, and
then cut II down IN winter. II is quite
possible to manage trees without hav-
ing recourse 10 winter pruning, unless
for special objects. ns,already allued
to. II IL certain that much injury Is
inflicted by the indiscriminato use Of
the saw and pruning knife. at this
time especially on young bearing
trees.
Make tia study, next season. TO disbud
and summer prune NIL growing trees,
so that you may weaken and cheek
the wood; pruning such trees now
increases their future vigor, since. by
diminishing the branches after the
fall OF the leaves, the roots gain a
greater preponderance. On the other
hand. it's no less necessary to prevent
weakness from overbearing. Since
the introduction Of the dwarGng system
by grating on week growing stocks.
the error has been frequently com.
mitted, and improbable trees have
been the result. 1t has also had a
tendency to throw discredit on the
system, by those who. from want oil
knowledge and experience. have been
unsuccessful in cultivation.
There are many kinds naturally oil
slender growth; grating them on q
slow-growing stock induces fruitfulness
and represses wood growth to an inju.
rious extent. Such trees should have
every blossom picked of that appears
in spring. all growth carefully retained
during summer, and pruned down in
winter. Such treatment will be fol
lowed with increased vigor, which may
be maintained'by taking moderate
crops. and continued good cultivation
So much depends upon individual
peculiarities in trees, that 1t is difficult
from definite rule that would serve
as a safe guard to the inimitated.-
Close observation, extended experience
and, at the last, a slight knowledge o.
physiology, are indispensable requisite,
to successful cultivation Of fruits

the following important paper was read
by Judge P, s. Rost, the President OF
the Society. and ordered to be printed.
II In capital news;-
NHw 0RLnAEs. Jan. 81, 1857.
After diligent inquiry In tho sugar
region, ID affords the undersigned
great pleasure 10 have Il In hIs power
to inform the society. that the future
prospects Of the sugar interest have
undergone an. unexpected and highly
favorable change.
For several years past the sugar
cane has been subject 10 q variety OF
diseases, which had induced the gem
eral belief that Il was fast deteriorating
and the crop before the last had been,
In places. seriously damaged by the
borer worm, an insect often found in
the West Indies. but. until lately, un-
known In Louisiana. The severe and
long continued cold Of the last winter
while |, nearly destroyed the crop on
hand. appears to have destroyed also
that mischievous insect, and the other
causes Of diseases. whatever they were.
With rare and unimportant exceptions
the canes now being planted are in the
best possible condition; and. rs an
unusually large quantity OF seed has
been put up,t the breadth Of landplanted
win exceed that Of any previous year
and. with anything like fair season.
more than an average crop will surely
be made.

AN INSECT ON THE prr.rLAsr.

Cor. HARRIs:-I wish to gain
some information through the
Cultivator in regard to an insect
which has done much injury to
our pie plants for couple Of
years past. The bug or insect is
about half an inch in length,
nearly round, Of a brown color.
1t burrows in the earth near the
root Of tho plant, aud makes its
attack by crawling up the stem
about two inches from the ground,
and periorates the stem nearly
through, then moves upward a.
bout its length, and makes anoth-
or incision, and so on till it reach
es the leaf, rendering the stalk
unfit for use, and greatly injuring
the plant, as kind Of gum ooz-
es out ut each incision. If you
can suggest q remedy or prevent
i've, we shall be very thankful
Yours, &c, LIZZIE.
Fremont, O.
REMARKs.--This is tho first we
have heard or seen Of any insect
attacking the pie plant; and II
any other readers Of the Cultiva-
tor have observed the operations
Of the animal referred to by Liz
zie, we hope they will let US know,
and when it appears again, SEND
us a specimen in a quill or other
continuance, by letter, as we can
not tell from the above descrip.
tion whether it is a grub or q bee.
tie. We would advise Lizzie to
try the experiment Of plac-
ling Stacked lime or wood ashes a.
round the plants, say pint or SC
to each, IL Of good size repeating
tho application after heavy rains
during the season ofthe appearing
of the insects. Tobacco stems
from a cigar factory, if to be had
may be still more effective, or wa
tering occasionally with soap suds
