VEGETABLES We have tried this Year.

.NplIc PR 1Idon We grew this
melon again this year, and it fully
sastains the good opinion we formed
of 1t. In fact, we believe it is des-
tined to be universally grown. Indi-
viduals, whom we furnished with seed,
have grown them this summer weigh
ing from thirty to sixty pounds each.
Indi1n Bcans-Wc received half q
dozen or more Of these from CORE
sponJcnt in Rockford, ILL.,, saying
they were brought by his father from
Kansas, and were obtained of the In
dams. The bean is about the size OF
marrowrat pea, and grows the quick.
est and, apparently, yields the best OF
any variety known. 1t is said to be
equal to the Lima. We have none
either to cat or TO spare.
UnJJard Squash. This celebrity we
have cultivated, and find it worthy its
character and reputation as an eata
bic. We mark it unsurpassed. Eve
~ lover of squash should grow thu
Hubbard.
Turtle Soup Bean.-Wc received
this bean from several sources. Al
its name indicates, it is q great SOU
bean, but whether it resembles, equal
OF surpasscs the famous turtle soup
we are unable to judge, as we ncvc
were in the land of turtles.
JomPh's CorR-A ncighbor grew this
and is very enthusiastic in its praise
Says it is the variety grown in Egyp
of which the storchouscs of Pharaol
were filed, and tina: it is good foot
for man boiled as rice, and an excel
lent substitute for corn in feeding
horses. Of this we know naught,
but it is certainly fine looking and
good tasted grain. 1t grows on a
stalk from six to ten feet in height, an
inch or more in diameter, and is re
ported to yield Acknowledgement al
high as two hundred and ten bushels
per acre. We consider it well wortl
trial from what we know of it, ant
think it destined to enter the list o
our cultivated cereals.--Proirie Farmer

sents the latest styles, both in colcred steel
