ing sulphate Of ammonia, which is a non.
volatile, soluble body, forming an excellent
manure. Now, if we mix ashes with gym
sum, no chemical action of any conse.
quence will occur between these two. But
as soon as the sulphate of ammonia is
formed, the potash will be quite likely to
displace the ammonia to unite with the
sulphuric acid and form sulphate of potash.
If the mixture is covered, as when used in
the bill with corn, the moist mould would
doubtless absorb the ammonia. Practi-
cally, | think, Mr.. Quinn is correct; bur
for broadcast crops Mr.. Curtis seems to
me nearest right.
THE CABBAGE CATERPILLAR.
A. N. West, Leonardsville, N. Y, wrote
as follows:
wish to learn II any of you know how poison
are the ,cabbage-worms They were very plenty
here this season. I have heard of some throwing
away their cabbage--would not feed them to
stock lest they should be poisoned. kept them
on my cabbage until they began to head with
heliebore, and they are not as bad on mine now
as on others Give us light.
Mr. Fuller-lf our correspondent refers
to the common green cabbage-worm can
assure him that it is no more poisonous than
the vegetable upon which it feeds. It is
the larya of the small white cabbage-but-
tertfy, known to entomologists as piers
,apn, or rape butterfly, introduced from
Europe about fifteen years ago, but now
quite common all over the country. 1t
may not be very pleasant to think that one
is eating worms with his cabbage, but be-
yond this he would not be injured.
SAME SUBJECT.
d. E. Foster, Cape Island, N. j., sent
sample of "deep green worm that rayaged
cabbage patches " in his vicinity. He tried
Ca pepper, and "they rather seemed
Mr.. Fuller-The worm is the one we
were just speaking of, but he don't explain
how they did the harm.
Mr.. Ely-Probably by treading on the
cabbage heads with their feet.
Mr.. QUINN applied mixture oftwenty
parts phosphate, three parts lime, and one
part carbolic powder last year, and lost
only five per cent of the crop.
Mr.. Fuller-An ichneumon fly has ap-
peared in great numbers IN some locations,
and may finally rid us of this pest.
Mr.. Ely have heard that the worm
never disturbs red-headed cabbages, but |
don't know how it is myself.
CONCERNING CUTTINGS.
NJ. N. Thomas, Fulton, N. Y, asked the
club to tell "all about cutting and planting
rose-bush cuttings" and how to treat
them.
Mr.. Fuller-Use young, thrifty wood, of
this seasons growth, and make the cutting
six inches long. Plant in half shady bor-
der by the side of fence or under the
shade of large tree, then cover the bed |
with leaves, coarse manure, or some similar |
material that will keep out the frost. In
the spring take off this winter protection.
Most of the climbing roses may be propa-
gated in this way, but June anlm roses
are more difficult to propagate from ripe
wood cutting. 8a 80
