THE DOWNING GoosEBERRY.


The growing of the gooseberry as a gar
den fruit, and for market, is gradually in-
creasing in this country. This increase is
due, mainly, like the growth Of grape cul-
ture, to the abandonment Of the attempt to
grow foreign varieties, and the general adis'
semination of improved native sorts eli
ther pure natives, or hybrdiEed varieties,
between the native and foreign.
Tho variety Of which we this week pre-.
sent our readers finely engraved illus
tration, drawn from specimens grown by H..
Il. Hooker X Bro, at their nurseries in
Rochester, New York; belongs, We think, to
the class of hybrids. 1t is characterized by
a strong, short, upright growth, heavy, close,
dark green foliage, and very numerous and
strong, though not very large, thorns. Ow-
ing to its short, stubbed growth, and stiff,
upright habit, it is IN unpleasant and not
very easy variety to propagate, and conse'
quently the stock in the hands Of nursery
men is usually small Its fruit is large,
nearly round, greenish in color, and better
favored than any other native. II fruits
abundantly, but the close, compact growth
of the bush, with the abundance Of stout,
sharp thsrns, makes it the most unpleasant
variety to gather that we are acquainted

The London MIR Journal says In
England, the system Of associated dairies
steadily gains ground, and butter factories on
this principle ore being opened. The quail
ity also of the butter is steadily improving,
and bids fair to rival that produced in Hol-
stein and Mecklenburg, which now stands
first in that market.

A correspondent of western exchange
writes as follows:

writes as follows:
Now Mr.. Editor, we will give you our SOL
id opinion about this Household Department
business. We guess it will be n genuine
failure. The fact Is, girls won't write for It,
because they don't know anything about
house-work Oh Guess we had better take
that back, or the girls will be in our wool
we will say that they are too busy catching
beaux, to write. The old maids won't WRITE
because they are not so vain as to want to
see themselves in PRINT besides, they will
not set themselves up rs teachers-they are
too modest for that. The married women
will not write, because they have their hands
full now, especially if they have q few like
Yankee Boy" to look after. The strong
minded women will not write, unless they are
paid for il and that settles the whole ques-
ton.
As the above rather fits the case Of our
Ladies' Department" we submit it to our
readers, hoping yet that the farmers wivesand
daughters of Vermont may feel moved to
make use of this column, which is rendered

ALI IS VANITY, ETC, Newspapers, as
well as individuals, occasionally indulge
in little outbursts of selflaudation and
vanity. This is pardonable, however,
because the springs beneath newspapers
are human. 1t is ridiculous for any one
paper, or for an individual, to claim all
the credit Of either organizing or estab-
fishing any public enterprise. Should
either be the only advocate, the sugges-
ton would fall still-born and be forgot
ten. 1t is only when the united press
and the public advocate public meas
ure that success becomes fact The
LEDGER only claims to be an ally of the
people in these enterprises, and reflects
the public sentiment. Sometimes it is
the avant courier of public sentiment,
but this, as with all other newspapers, is
more apparent than real--public senti-
ment being in all cases the motive power.

objections TO the use Of all other disin-
fectants, it being represented as having
no odor Of its own, entirely harmless,

rnan.tr,aI Expo.ition.

Where the Industrial Exposition
ought to be located is a vexed question
at present; but the real question in issue
is to get up a sufficient amount OF stock
to make the Exposition success from
the commencement The Exposition
will be paying institution at once.
No ono should be allowed to speculate
upon it or make money out OF it. 1t
should be, and will be. no doubt, self
sustaining AN enterprise,gotten upin the
interest of the public, and the proceeds,
over and above all expenses, should be
applied to improve the building and sus-
tanning the mechanical and industrial
resources Of West Tennessee. The site
to be selected should be centrally To-
cated-in fact, where pedestrians could
reach it without difficulty, and thereby
avoid the necessity and expense of tray-
cling there in hacks or street cars. No
doubt the managers will attend to all
this, being the representative men OF
the people. "a,
