l. the hands OF every Agrculturist, as it

price, not liable to get ont of order. and
the only Derfcci. poriabie Barometer in

vey, and at the Smithsonian Institute,
" ashlngton, besides being recommended
by the most distinguished agricultursts OF
the country, as well as by host of pro-
tessors and scientific journals.

Country Gentleman, Boston journal, Phil.
Ledger, Marshall P. Wilder, Orange Judd,
Professors Henry, I1ackley, Holmes, Carr,
Williams, Douglass, SC.

SEED PoTAToEs.--l was brought up
in section where we were taught that
the seed ends of potatoes were the best for
seed; the earliest and largest. took
medium sized potatoes, cut of the seed
ends and planted together in one place,
and the body Of the potato in another
ground being equal-and the result was.
that the seed potatoes were the first out of
the ground, and more in number of tops,
while the body potatoes were later in com
ing up, but larger tops. The result at
digging was more potatoes from the seed
ends, but not SO large, nor so many BUSH
els from he same number of hills.
Again, take whole potatoes and plant
the same of equal size and cut into two
pieces-meaning fair sizcd-and the result
will be in favor of the cut potatoes. This
season, being short of seed, planted a
bushel or so of very small "Oronos''--too
small to eat--and they are equal in size to
whole potatoes of larger dimensions, and
turn out as well aloo. Therefore, il small
potatoes will produce as well as the larger
ones, and will not bring one-fourh as
much, it is a result worth knowing.-E.

BoRAx TO KILL CocKRoAcHEs.-At
the last meeting Of the Boston Society of
Natural History, report was made by a
member upon the effect of pulverized bo-
rax upon the water-bugs and cockroaches
that infest our houses. The experiment
was tried by sprinkling it around every
crack and crevice suspected of afordine
shelter to these insects, with this effect.
that after three or four days quantities OF
dead ones were found on the floors. and
hardly live one found in the house.

TRAINING DoGs.--In the course of
some conversation in relation to dogs.
Gov. Anderson, OF Ohio, related Texan
practice of training dogs with sheep:
"a pup is taken from its mother before
its eyes are opened, and put with an eve
to suckle. After few times the eve be-
comes reconclled to the pup, which fol-
lows her like lamb, grows up and re-
mains with the flock, and no wolf, man,
or strange dog, can come near the sheep :;
and the dog will bring the flock to the
fold regularly at u O'Clock, if you habitu-
ally feed him at that hour.

Poison Ivy.--James Baily, Sunbury,
Delaware county, Ohio, writes 10 the New
York Farmers Club:
There are two kinds of ivy. No one
was ever poisoned blythe fve-leaved vine;
it is only the three-leavcd vine that poi
sons, and but few persons are affected by
that or sumach The fve-leaved variety
is perfect antidote for the poison of the
three-leaved variety. After suffering in
describably from the poison, took a few
leaves, chewed them, and rubbed some
blisters on the back of my hand with the
juice; it stopped the itching at once, and
in less than twenty-ioua hours the bliste:s
had dried up and become flat. have
not had blister on me since that time
from poison, although have been fire.
quently exposed to both ivy and sumach,
and have seen others use it with the
same good effect. The leaves of the five
leaved ivy, when first chewed, have a
pleasant, sour taste, but if chewed too long
they have apungent taste like wild turnip.

ABOUT THE GARDEN-Parsnips and
Oyster Plants or Satisfy should be left in
the ground--,to be taken out rs they may
be wanted, when the ground will admit of
it; and if the frost should be severe and
compel US to wait until February, they
will be the better for it, and be at hand
when vegetables are scarce Celery
should be secured before the ground is
frozen, for being nipped at the top, it will
not keep. Turnips should be buried di-
rectly in the ground, where the soil is dry,
and. at grade which will allow the water
to run off freely. A bunch of straw, as
thick as an arm, should from the outside
communicate with the turnips, to allow
the escape of confined air, as well as an
swer ready means of access to the escu-
tents. All the beds to be planted next
season, should be turned up with gar
den fork, allowing the Jumps to be as
large as possible, to remain thus in the
rough until spring, for the action of the
frost. This operation makes the ground
light and iriable, and helps to extirpate
the vermn taking shelter for the winter.
