STRAWBERRIES AND RAsPBERRIEs.-
The earliest of all fruits, the Strawberries,
may be planted if March, April or May,
Just as it may suit, planted in hills, from
one to two and half feet apart, they will
not only bear double as much, but also much
larger berries than if planted closely Ito
gether In fact. some sorts must be planted
in hills to do well, and our most popular
varieties, viz: the Wilson, Jucunda, De
Crane French's Seeding and Agriculturist,
all being to this class of strawberries. In
this region there is no advantage in cultiva-
ting any besides the Wilson.
Raspberries, the red varieties, should be
planted in rows eight feet apart and four
feet in the row. Cultivate the first year
and after that mich with leaves, grass, corn
stocks, or almost anything that will rot and
keep the weeds down. The canes will come
up thickly, but NOW them out between the
rows, and thin out in beds two feet wide
with canes about six in ches apart Every
fall apply fresh lot of mulching

desirable to have good smooth wash, the
Stacked lime should be sifted through
moderately fine sieve; if to be used Tor oarns

To the lime thus prepared, add enough
water to fiIl the barrel half full; ;,then add

pounds of melted rosin, hos, to make it stick.

the wash to crack and scale off. Stock, also
will lick it off. have had the whole side
of barn licked clean by stock in using salt.
After preparing the whitewash as above,
gil up your barrel with water, cold or hot,
it matters not, and you will have wash
that will stand quite well for FIVE years. To

The older the above whitewash becomes
the better it will be, provided it is kept
covered with water, and not allowed to be-

OF Moh,lny mornings proceedings in the
Police Court was written for Yesterday

Insbriety came near monOpolizng the
business of the Police Court, yesterday
morning. Albert Lady, Thomas Smith,
James Han,on and John Muarky were
severaliy arrAigned on charges Of
drunkenness, and tine Of one dollar and
costs in each instance imposed.
Scott Couch alias Joshua Scott, the pea
nut vender, seems to be paying more than
usual attention 70 law matters just now.
Only Saturday he was before Esqr, Gil,

thrash all the employees in dry goods Is,
Enlistment on Market Square. lie came
oRsecond best, both in the encounter in
the store and before the Justice, as stated
in Yesterdays paper.
Scott put in an appearance before Judge
Good yesterday morning, the accusation
against him being, that on the 1st inst. be
expressed his ability and readiness TO SET
tie small account for beef with butcher,
according to the rules OF the prize ring,
alleging that he had once paid it. The
vender Of steaks was not accustomed to
receiving pay in that currency. 1t was
not legal tender, and he would have none
Of it. I'VE believe hegot neither that nor
anything else.) Scott, however, loudly
asserted his proves, declaring that he
could whip this particular butcher, 'and
the rest Of mankind" For the tumult and
disorder thus made by hun in public
market place, he was tried and fined ten
dollars and costs. We do not know
whether he came down with the green
backs or not, but We do know that this
little bill cannot be paid as be proposed to
liquidate that Of the butcher.
YESTERDAY MoRSISG's SESSION.
The only cases before the COurs, yester'
day morning, were those Of KilIian Ham
and Thomas Smith. The former was
charged with assauluug Leopold Buch,
and the testimony clearly established the
fact His Honor imposed fine Of ten
dollars and costs.
The latter Thomas Smith was up on
the charge of being found drunk on the
streets. The usual dollar and costs salts
fed the demands ofthe violated ordinance.
This Thomas Smith must not be con-
founded with the one mentioned in Mon.
days report. There appears to be two
Thomas Smiths, both of whom have had
hearing before the Court on similar
charges.
