PichIInr FruII.

A lady who has thoroughly tested the
following recipes furnishes them to the
Western Rural:
Picked Peaches. = Take eight pounds
peaches dissolve four pounds sugar; put
in few peaches at time, and soak them
until fork will penetrate them easily /;
skim them out, and put in more. When
all are cooked, drain the juice from them,
and put it back into your kettle; add an
ounce of whole cloves, and one ounce of
stick cinnamon, and boil some fifteen or
twenty minutes. Place your peaches in a
jar, and pour the syrup over then. When
perfectly cold, add one pint good vinegar.
Brandy PeGches.-Proceed in the same
way as for picked peaches, substituting
brandy for vinegar.
Picked Pedrs.-These are very nice, pre-
pared in either of the above modes.
Picklea Sweet AppLes.-Pare, quarter and
core the apples. To ten pounds Of the fruit
add four of sugar, half teacup of water
and one lemon, or the rinds of two. Stew
the apples till they are a little soft, then
skim them out and place them on a sieve
over a pan. When the fruit is drained,
pour the juice back into the kettle, and boil
twenty minutes. Add quart of vinegar,
and pour over the apples Cover only with
a thin cloth till cold then put plate upon
them, to press the fruit down into the sy-
rup. Two or three thicknesses of paper
tied over the top of the jar excludes the air
more perfectly than cloth.

soil for Vineyards.

The long established practice ofhighly
enriching the deep vine borders of exotic
grape-houses, formerly misled some cul>
tivators into the practice Of heavily ma
nuring the ground intended for vineyards
Of hardy American varieties. Il is now
fully proved that land. Of moderate fer
tility is much better. Rich soils produce
a strong growth of canes and leaves, at
the expense Of the fruit, and render the
wood more liable to winter-killing A

are planted along the borders of large

Celery is commonly blanched or bleach
ed by drawing the earth up to the plants
in the rows while growing, etc. This
work requires very careful management,
and even then it is very often with unsat-
isfaetory results. This practice does
much better farther north than in this
latitude-where plants do much better
removed from growing place to btanch-
ing bed, which is prepared as follows:
The ground for the bed should be as near
the plants as possible. 1t should be
thoroughly, deeply plOughed, narrowed,
raked, and rendered free from grass and
weeds before worked, and roots and rocks
while working For a single row give six
to eight feet Of preparation. This work
should be done the first favorable time in
October, or even in September. The
length of bed necessary can be known by
counting your plants-about ten to every
running yard Hove thiswork done some
days or weeks before you begin to plant.

leaves must be taken of, then tie each
plant two-thirds distance from root to top
with soft bass mating string just tight
enough to keep stalks together
TRIMMING RooT Pass your knife
about twothirds of an iuch from the
crown, diagonally to the extreme end,
then trim the opposite side of the root
in shape like a long V, this will hasten
its blauching and render plants more de-

Then with a trowel draw earth up to each

apart be careful in 'earthing up you
do not permit any dirt to get between the
outer and inner stalks; continue "earth~
ing up" until the ends Of leaves alone are
visible The ridge, when finished, should
be forty-fye degrees on both sides-a

To secure your work and plants it
would be well to protect the tops of
plants from water getting in, to cover
with plank or boards, set like reversed
gutter on forks.
For immediate use, goods box of plants
might be set in dark cellar The chemi-

Lake Erie, from Dunkirk to Sandusky,
extending a few miles inland, and the
borders Of Crooked Lake, in the Western
New York, have proved to be admirably
adapted to vineyard eulture5 and other
places in proximity to open water away
from frequent fogs, and with loose or
shell soil, will doubtless be found equally
good While such localities as these
should be sought for extended or market
cultivation, in nearly every portion of
the country vines for family supply
may be raised, by proper under drainage,
and the selection of hardy or productive
sorts.
AT the same time that moderate fer
tility is to be sought, constant cultivation
NUT be given through the growing
season. The best managers pass the cul-
yator once week The slowsgrowing
varieties, such as the Delaware, should
have a richer soil than more rapid
growers. Grapes on highly manured land
will grow larger, and present a more
snowy appearance-but the fruit at the
same time will be more watery, and of
inferior flavor A correspondent of the
American Fruit Caltwist furnishes the
following in regard to the distances for
planting
The European practice Of placing the
vines about four feet apart, each way, and
training to a single stake, has been adopted
TO considerable extent 1t succeeds best
on poor and light soils, and with the slower
growing Sorts Although it does we'll for a
few years, it is not to be generally recom-
mended. Young cultivators, also, fall into
the error of placing their vines too near
together, when trained with horizontal
arms on common trellis. They bear and
succeed well while young, but as they be-
come older require more room. 1t is a
common practice to place the lines Of trel-
lis eight feet apart, and the vines twelve
feet from each other, along each line of
trellis. This distance appears to answer
we'll but some Of the best managers give
at least twelve feet each way, and others as
much as sixteen feet. The space thus
given, not only tends to a more healthy
growth and freedom from mildew, but de-
velops larger, finer, and more perfect
grapes

EnrIi.h Mode Of Fn,,enInr PouItr

English Mode Of FatteDing Poultry.
The food usually selected for fattening
poultry is oat meal mixed, either with
scalding milk or water Cooped fowls
should be supplied with fresh food three
times daily, viz at day~break, midday,
again at roosting-time As much as they
can eat should be given them at each
time but no more than can be devoured
before the new meal should any be left
it should be removed and given to other
fowls, as if kept, it is apt to become sour,
when the birds will not eat freely. The
troughs for the soft meal should be scald-
ed daily, which can only be done con.
veniently by having a supply of spare
ones In addition to soft food, a supply
Of fresh, clean water must be constantly
present and little gravel must be given
daily, otherwise the grinding action of
the gizzard which is necessary TO the
due digestion of the food does not 60 on
satisfactorily the supply Of a little
sliced cabbage, or turnip tops, or green
turf to pick occasionally, being all that is
required variation in the food will be
found very conducive to an increased APP
petite, and therefore the occasional SUBJ
stitution of a feed Of boiled barley for
the slaked oat meal, is desirable. Some
feeders have a division in their troughs,
or still better, small extra trough, which
always contains some grains for the fowls
to peek at Should the birds be required
very fat, some mutton suet or trimmings
Of the loin may be boiled in the milk or
water preparatory to its being poured
over the food, and the fat Of the fowls so
fatted viii be found exceedingly firm.
