GARDEN SsFD.-0ur people hav heretofore
relied so much upon Northern seed men for
their garden seed that they have not been>ln
the habit of saving them. That source Of
supply happily being cut off unless q little
care he taken by our citizens TO save seed
enough, there will be 3 great scarcity. This
year there were not enough good seed to sup
ply the demand, and old and defective stocks
were brought iuto market. Much ~disappoint-
lnent and loss has been the consequence.
Every farmer and gardener should take care
to. save rs great a variety and as .largea guam
TRY as he can. Thus be will be sure of
enough for himself, and may helpsto supply
those who are not fortunate enough 10 sue
coed in their efforts, or who are new begin
ners. 1t is, moreover, important that each
cuiuvator should be, able to exchange seeds
witush:s neighb n, since thnse not grofsn on
his place will generally thrivr better tfran
those that are. Above all, if we supply orr
selves, we are sure of good seed whereas if
we rely upon the. precarious chanccscf block.

shall continue to, be deceived with defective
seeds and with seed that turn QUITO be these

Broom Corn.

Mr.. EDITOR: As many persons are engaged
in the culture OF broom. corn. e description OF
the manner Of preparing it for market may
Of this time be interesting. Care should be
taken to notice when the strawS of the brush
b.gin to fall. The sta,k.shoul& rhen be care,
fully bent about ten inches below the lower
extremity Of the brush. or between the first
aud second joint. If bent at the joint it will
break. The best broom is cut wien Of a
yellowish green color, the seed bciug inatured.
1t should b. cut six inches from the brush,
and carried immediately to the barn and
spread 10 dry in tie shade. The least setting
is an injdry to it. The next process is the
removal of the seed, which is done by draw
ing the brush between two scrapers of'hoop
iron. MesesscraperS. are. arranged bycpttins
4 V in the upper part of an upright firmly
fitted in a bench, and fastening tue stripes
Of iron to the sides of the V, SO that in draw
ing the brush through the y the seeds are
detached. 1t may be proper to remark, that
the sides of the the V SHOULD form an acute
angle. Alter relunvi 9 the seeds, the broom
is made into bales, care being takent to place

:. LOSSES op GENERAL LEES ARMY,-We
have received some information touching the
losses Of Geas Las's army, derived from o
source entirely worthy ot credit, which con-
trsdicts, in the most direct form, the estraq-
ogsnt boastings of the Yankee pegs and,thelr
General. In the official dispatches of Gen:
Meade to his Government, announcing the
crossing Of the Potomac by our army, be
claims to have captured 1000 prisoners. we
are assured chat the total number taken by
the enemy was some $50 inen-a very triging'
loss considering the magnitude OF the operu-
