We wintered last season two cows,
from tho time grass failed uatii the goth
OF February upon Turnips. These ,ur5
nips did not occupy one half acre, and
some twenty-five bushels had been used
for other purposes.
"A light sandy loan is best for turnips,
IT made rich, because the small seed in
such soils germinats better, the young
plants grow off more rapidly, and at ma.
turity smooth, regular and uniform in
sze, and Of better quality for table use.
They succeed admirably on such lands
newly cleared, with proper PREPARATION
the ashes and mould answering in place
Of manure. Above all others, genuine
Super-phospha,e is likely to produce the
best results, as ii has more visible effects
upon the turnip crop than any other " hat
ever.
The great causes Of failure are two
The soil is not generally made rich en-.
ough, and is too generally left lunpy and
iIl.Prepared, and full of the seeds of weeds
In a turnip patch, not lump should be
left unbroken, and all the seed Of weeds
should be germns,sd before sowing.
When the ground is thoroughly made
soft aud 6ne, apply your Super phosphate
and o,her'manures at the surface, aud
harrow in. Three hundred pounds to
the acre, OF the latter, will pay, but not
"a well as FIVE. We prefer applying
Super phosphate, and sowing ,fs seed in
drills, Tor hand culture, two feet apart
for the plow IA coulter or othE narrow
pillow mpS be used') twenty esh, inches
will do. Vi sown on ligh, bed il will
be more convenient for cultivation. In
short, cultivate exactly like cotton. The
result will be three, four, six, eigh. hur-
dred or even, in extraordinary cases, a
thousand bushels to tic acre, according
to the season, and to how well you have
done your duty. We SOW Ruta Bepa in
July and August, and other turnps up

Counterfeit Fractional Currency
in the South.

A Washington letter to the Baltimore
Transcript, says: "Reports received at
the Treasury Department state that the
Southern States are ct present flooded
with counterfeit United States notes, n a,
,onal bank notes and fractional currency
Of every denomination. One orthe Trea-
sury. detectives, while on an official visit
in one Of the Southern cities, observed
that an immense quantity OF this spur
ons money is circulating there among all
classes. who, with few exceptions, accept
il as readily as tie genuine. Tie detec.
tive having received, while making some
tritling Purch ases, nearly onehslf his
change in counterfeit money, and being
desIrous Of ascertaining some estimate Of
the amount OF this trash in circulation,
seized upon the money 'tiIls Of several
merchants doing quite an extensive bu-
sinsss, and discovered that abou: one,half
their contents were counterfeit, which con.
sisted Of United States notes Of the vari.
Gus Issues and denominations o: fractional
currency, aud quite number Of coun,
terfeits on tke national banks Of the
North and West. A postmistress in one
Of the Southern States recently returned
to the Treasury $42 so, which she had
received from the sale Of internal revs.
nue. stamps, and upon examination $40
Of the amount was detected as spurious,
which, unfortunately for her. she must
make good"
ln this city the nuisance Of counterfeit
fractional currency, with which we wera
% long afflicted, has been. in a great de,
gree gotten rid Of by the determin alton
Of our merchants and others to take no
note that is not absolutely above susph
cior.
