Cd. Diana. - Bunches large, lnostl,
shouldered; berries large, round, red
vine vigorous and productive; ripens lw,
weeks later than the Delaware, and ap
prOaehes il in excellence, both for tabl,
use, and for wine. If grown in a small
space, must be root pruned, at the en-
of the first season, and if very vigorous
at the end Of the second.
Sd. Anna.--A white grape Of the
highest favor lunches and berries me.
dium g large; vine hardy and produc.
live., II begins TO ripen as early as the
Diana, but does not progress so rapidly
and Consequently IN cold seasons may be
considered not SO early as Diam, but
much earlier than the Catawba, and sur
passing il greatly in rich vinous favor.
A. Herbemont.-An immense grower,
and the most ornamental of all our out
door vines perfectly hardy south of New
York /; its berries are medium and small
in size, bat color deep purple covered
with bloom; the lunches are very large
Its richp spicy vinous flavor is very dis
tinct, aud of The greatest excellence. It
is fiAy described by Downing, who says:
"lts berries are bags Of wine" An adj
mirable variety for the latitude of New
York city, and further South. In texture
and favor it may stand in comparison
with The best European varieties.
S. Lenoir-All that has been said of
HeirbemonI will apply generally to this
variety, except that the Lemon is much
ear ier, ripening at least two weeks be-
fore the Isabella. It's fruit is very sweet
rich and SPICY, and has a very high char
acter for vine, as well as for table use,
and other purposes. hasfl1 @
Rebecca would deserve all commenda.
tiOns for the garden, were it not that its
leaves, wnich are not abundant, like those
of Isabella, in most localities are subject
TO mildew in unfavorabIe seasons.
There are Two other varieties that
should not be passed without a word, as
few who have gardens would like 70 be
without them.
l. Union Village. Which originated
with the Shakers at a place of that name
id Warren County, Ohio. not far from
and was introduced by Mr.,
Longworth. In appearance it is like
nonstFous Isabella, and resembles it in
1ayor. bat IS richer, and ripens at least
,ne week sooner. In bunch and berry it |
nav be represented as twice the size of
hat variety.
2. EIsinburg. This IS directly The re-
rerse Of rbe above, having small berries,
out of the highest favor. and of deci-
led European character, but it IS hardy, |
early and productive with care, its long |
lunches become very hand
some; fruit sweet. spicy and delicious.
Itimhy be remarked that the skin OF
be Herbemont, Lenoir, and Elsinburg
ldheres firmly 10 the flesh, like all the
.oreign varieties.

Treatment OF Colts, and How 70 get
rid OF Lice.

Thomas S. Lay, of North Vassalboro
Me-, gives the method Of treatment oi
colts and to cure those affected with lice
as follows in the Maine Farmer
"Three months after foaling, commence
giving the foal a handful of oats daily
which is gradually increased until the fOaI
is four months old, at which time he should
in most cases, be weaned. Many excel
lent stockbreeders keep the foaI by the
dam FIVE or six months, and many give
cows milk after weaving, but when the
dam is kept breeding this is not a good
practice. During the fifth month give
one quart of oals, and one quart of sliced
carrots, if carrots are in season; during
the sixth and seventh north feed two
quarts Of carrots and one Of oats-if car
rots cannot be had and grass is out Of sea-
son, give two or three feeds per week Of
scaIded bran, two quarts to a feed. When
weaning commences the foal should be
placed IN a small enclosure orhave access
to large yard, IN order to have plenty
Of execise. 1t is much better TO wean
sevefaI together in the same yard.
''In giving grain to colts | should OBJ
ject using any kind but cats, as this grain
goes mostly to form muscles and bone.
while corn or corn meal Is heating and
any more roots than is sufficient to keep
the animal in condition tends 10 fat which
is not wanted. Colts should have all the
good hay they will eat. and water and
salt dd ELitun,.
"If poultry are kept near the colts. ex-
anime carfully and often for lice upon
them; rubbing the name ard tail is indlca-
tion of them. Should they he found

half an ounce of arsenic in one gallon Of

the animal over: il will not only kill the
hce, but the eggs unmatched To mix the
arsenic, use wooden pail, putting the
arsenic in the corner and adding a few
spoonfuls Of water; rub the powder and
water until paste is formed. then add
the water. This should be applied on a
warm, sunny day. An infusion of lobelia
is also good. When colts are turned to
grass, care should be taken that the hoofs
should be shortened at the toe and rasped
to prevent breaking and splitting, as well
as to take of as much as possible the
strain upon the back cords Of the legs

Tnrnips among Corn.

In some recent notes we alluded to the
practice now becoming quite prevalent
there, of putting turnips in The rows Of
corn. A correspondent of a paper in
Pennsylvania, says:
dThe practice of sowing turnips among
Indianic0rn, at the last hoeIng, and es-
pecially where the latter has been thin
ned by worms or other insects, is one
which cannot 100 urgently be reeommen-
ded The tt1rnip is vegetable which
requires less assistance from solar light
during the inCipient stages of its devel-
ment; than almost any plant IN the whole
catalogue of edibles; consequently, 1t is
but slightly injured by the foliage of The
corn plants, or the closeuess OF the at
mospheTe thus created. After the corn
is harvested, and before the advent of
frost, there will be ample time for them
10 root, especially if the soil be well cul-
livated. Burnt lands, in which th9 nat
ural vegelative powers of the soil are
augmented by the alkaline principles of
the ashes, are very favorable TO the cul-
Iivation of turnips; and when they are
sowed among corn on such, they almost
invariably produce lucrative crop. Hun
dreds of Lushels of excellent turnlpS may
Frequently be grown IN this way Without
any apprecable diminutlon of the corn
CROP Economy is wealth." says the
adage, and II is certain no one can pFac-
tice il long without increasing 10 some
extent. his means for future operations
and enterprises. In this business of pro-
ducing cheap crops in substitution for
the more expensive cereals, we gain sew
eral important advantages, among which
may be mentioned as not the least proin-
inent, the saving of time, and the re-
alization Of lucrative yield of produce
from land prepared for another species
Of roots or grain. The ravages Of in-
sects often prove fatal to many vegetables
especially to Indian corn and when this
happens, unless the vacated land can be
filed with some crop of later growth, il
must remain. either in part or wholly
idle.
Again. The turnlp bears late sowing 50
well that il may be grown on fields from
which early vegetables have been taken /;
it succeeds well after a crop Of peas,
beans, SC.
Bone manure, wood ashes. lime and
poudreiie are all excellent articles to be
used in The cultivation of turnips. Ground
and crushed bones, and bones dissolved
in sulphuric acid-itself possessing pow
erfuI stimulant and manurial properties,
makes an admirable dressing. Gypsum
also. is applied with success, both before
and after planting. Green and fermen-
ted manures should never be used on this
crop.
There IS no excellence without labor,

a gentleman whose granary and pre-.
mises generally were overrun with rsls
writes 10 the editor Of The North Brit.
ish Agriculturist, that be had tried ..all

rest away, or to sensibly thin them. He
was greatly distressed and almost de-
spending of ever getting quit of them.
when a neighbor recommended a trial of
cats. Having got cat and two kittens,
ne made a crib for them Ia the granary.
and had a carpenter to cut circular holes
IN every door on the premises. The re-
suit was that IN a short time his placa

Weight OF Wheat Straw peF Acre
AS the amount Of straw il ordinar,
fcropso Of wheat and oats and other cere
ais is but seldom. if ever, weighed ia thi:
country, and as it might not only be q
| EgraiiHcatIon 10 a natural curiosity, bui
also occasionally Of some utility in calcu.
lations as 10 the amount of fodder re.
quired, or 10 be provided for certain
amount Of stock, a number Of reports in
regard 10 this matter, made BY British
farmers, have been compared, from which
il appears that the amount Of straw ia a
medium crop Of wheat is about Que ton
and half. On very rich, or where the
growth of straw has been made exceed
lngly luxuriant by the application Of qua
no, nitrate of soda, sulpnate Of ammonia
or other nitrogenods top dressings, the
amount of straw per acre, has sometimes
been as high as two and half and from
that up to three tons.
In the report of an experiment with
different kinds of wheat, in which The
ground had very superior preparation,
and IN which the seed was dibbled in rows
SIX inches apart, and three inches apart
IN the rows--a mode of cultivation in.
tended and adapted to produce very
large crop-the weight OF straw ranged
frOm one ton and II cwt., TO a ton and 2
ewt., the average being a little over 9
and l.2 tons per acre. But this very
uncommon weight of straw need not dis
turb any calculations based on the aver.
age given above, and the whole crop.
both grain and straw, was far above the
medium, the bushels of grain being stat
ed at 55, 65, 69, ~, &c, and in the case
where the straw exceeded 4 tons, the
wheat is said 10 have amounted 10 81 1.2
bushels per acre!!
As the amount of straw in oats crops
varies very greatly in this country, ac-
cotding to the dryness or wetness OF the
season, the average weight per acre ia a
climate so different from that here as is
that Of Great Britain, would be but an
unreliable guide for US. A very light
growth of straw might come short of
even one ton, and very luxuriant growth
might reach as high as three tons per
acTee. From these data, pretty accurate
"guesses" might be made IN any case in
which an climate of the weight Of straw
might be deemed important.

Mammoth GrapeYine.

A writer in the California Farmer
speaks as follows Of a celebrated grape.
vine, much spoken Of, and its products
much doubted:
The celebrated grapevine Of hIonteeiio,
near Santa Barbara. was assured by the
owner 70 the writer. in the fail Of 1859,
and that il yielded in 1857 or 1853 over
i've thousand lunches Of grapes-a fact
which has been much disputed, bot from
personal visl and inquiry we believe it
correct and true. This grapevine covers
an arbor Of about thlrty-fre feet long BY
the same III br-adlh. and ten feet high;
the trunk is twice as thick as a mans
high.
