DISCUSSION ON GRAPES.

AT the last meeting of Fruit Growcrs,in
Rochester, New York, some very sensible
remarks were made by several gentlemen
on tho subject Of grape growing and wine
making. Judge Larowe said. that the
man, who pays the best attention to his
vines will realize twice as many grapes as
tho other man who lets "nature" have her
own way that the consumption of grapes
in this country more than doubles every
year; that in the village of Bath, in his
county, which could not use half a ton
five years ago, used Eve tons the past
year; that four tones of grapes upon az
average can be raised on an acre, having
himself raised FIVE tons that the labor
per acre did not exceed sac, with him less
aud that he plants bis vines 8 feet by 8
He added that the proper way was to fl
the trellis with new wood aud fruit ant
cut out all the old wood. Those bearing
this year should be cut of just beyond the
fruit. The nearer the eraIes are got t,
to the surface of the ground, the riche
they will be in saccharine matter. II
contended that anything that require,
sugar to make it, was not wine. That

DR.. Sylvester said we had made ou
vines sickly by our manuring, aud main

enough to raise corn, it was rich enoug
for grapes. We agree with DR.. S. 1t ha
long been our opinion that we over-ma
nure our grape-vines. 1t makes then

of wood and foiage--in other words, b

MANURE OF DIFFERENT CLASSES
OF ANIMALS

Cows in full milk or with calf, seorete
from their feed great quantities of valu
able substances which iattening cows or
oxen will not withdraw from what they
eat-hence the manure Of the mich COWS
is not worth nearly so much as that Of
fatteniug alimals. This must be evident
from the obvious tact, that out of the milk
or what would be milk, the entire struc-
ture of 5-weeks old calf is formed. -
The calf continues to grow and learns to
and for severel years is building up his
frame Of heavy bones; all the valuable
ingredients permanently entering into his
system, OF course comes out Of his feed
and would, we're be a full grown steer,
have passed into the manure, Many far
mers are likely to uHdervalue the impor.
tant differences in the quality of the ex-
crements Of different classes of the samo
kind of stock. The differences which we
have alluded to, of course exist as well in
the manure of other kinds of animals as
in that Of neat cattle Let US then bear
in mind that keeping milk giving and
growing animals is great tax upon the
land, that fatting animals make sich ma
nure heaps, and that full grown male an
imals draw much lees upon the soil than
females bearing young and giving milk.

STARTING EARLY POTATOES

A cr' Of potatoes ready for the table
early in June, may be secured without
great trouble. II seed potatoes are brought
into warm room about the first of March
the eyes will start rapidly, the norishmcnt
10 tubers will sus.an n them for two or three
weeks, by which time they may easily be
planted out in some favorable spot. Of
course care must bctaken in planting cut
not to break he..spiouis. Or the tub'r-
may be planted in hot bed of moderate
temperature, about the middle of The
month. But them in halves, lay them fiat
side down, as thick as they can be placed,
and cover with about two inches of earth.
They may be traLsplanted when two or
three inches high. Thoy shonld be re-
moved carefully, separating the roots with
as little injury as possible. They vii
be likely to yield full crop under this
treatment, and may therefore be planted
more closely, say in drills thirty inches
apart in the drills. Another method is to
put pieces Of potatoes in small squares OF
turf set them close together in warm
place where they can be watered readily.
On cold nights protect them with straw
When large enough they can be set out
turf and all, without disturbing the roots
This might no. pay Oh large scale, but
enough may thus be brought forward for
O supply, until the main cropis olaiure en-
ough to draw upon.

arguments, but whenever il comes TO financial
matters | always imagine that see a large num-
Der Of Vermont State Banks in the background.
Mr.. Collamer doesn't fancy Mr.. Chase's policy,

quite as bad as a copperhead in legislation if
there is a State Bank or Whiskey Distillerv in

one popular to write such things, but they are
true, nevertheless. | can't see the difference
between Mr.. Blank, Republican, who will let
the country DRIFT to financial ruin because he
dislikes to offend the banks in his district, or
who may have bought up lot Of gold or stocks.
and Mr.. Copperhead, who secretly desires JEFF
Davis TO triumph. Both by their votes AID the
rebels-one because he loves the rebels, and the
other because he loves money.
