In selection Of small fruits specially adapted
to planting in . new country, we should set high
value on currant. Nor is it much less desirable
old homestead that is well furnished with
fruit; hut where the Unsuitable currant worm has
established itself this crop is costly and diff
cult one to grow. For family use the currant is
hardly surpassed by any one of the bush or vine
summer fruits. Scarcely is the berry formed
from the flower, ere it is plucked and used for
food. When fully ripe, its taste is agreeaby acid
during the hot weather, and it has the peculiar
and valuable quality, in SO small fruit Of keep
ing perfectly for weeks on the bushes, after its
color and size announce its maturity. Its value
in cookery is well known, and it's fermented
juice forms q beverage which is superior to any
other manufactured from fruit, except that made
from apple and grape.
The currant is very easily propagated from
cuttings taken from the latest growth. They
sheuld be long enough to reach to the moist soil,
and they ought to be planted early in the spring
before the buds start. There are two methods
natural habit, assisting it by proper thinning and
pruning, and the other to force it to grow in the
tree form. For general cultivation the first
method is preferable; 1t is more natural, and We
think the plant will be longer lived and heal.
thier. At proper intervals the old wood can he
cut away and the growth renewed by suckers
springing from buds below the ground. The tree
form is very handsome, convenient for tillage,
and for few years produces very fine fruit.
When this form is desirable it is only necessary
to remove all the buds on the cutting below
where You wish the branches to form. They
should be cut ont with q knife. If any suckers
spring mp from the ground, or branches start toe
low down, they may be easily removed, and when
the plant becomes well established in its growth,
no further trouble will arise from This source.

distance to plant.-Rsral Ner Yorker.

CRANBERRY CULTuRR.

The first requisite for success in cranberry raj
sing 10 to select piece Of land which can be
flowed in the winter. The best land, in my opin-
| ion, is a level swamp 90 thickly covered with
trees or bushes to exclude all grass and weeds.
Ditch IL % that the water can be drawn Oh to the
level of the swamp, build dam and cover the
swamp with water. After it has frozen, in the
fall of the year, cut the trees and bushes even
with the ice. Then, by raising the water few
| inches, the stumps will he covered, and at the
end Of the next summer You will have u swamp
without any green thing growing upon it. Clear
off or burn the bushes, and the ground is in
readiness for the vines.
There are many advantages in spring setting.
but at whatever time they sct the vines
should never be placed more than eighteen in
ches apart, and rs much nearer as time and the
abundance Of your vines will admit. The closer
the vines are set, 30 much the sooner will there
be crop of berries, and much the less will be
the trouble of wedding.
have never seen vines flourish as well with
the same amount of care in swamp land trea-
ted as have above described. Weeds of all sorts
will come in, but they can he pulled out as east
~ us from . carrot bed.
have seen cranberry yards prepared by plOw-
ing and cultivating meadow lands until complete
ly subdued; by taking of the sward ten or
twelve inches in depth, and by covering with
sand from three to five inches in depth: but all
of these methods believe to he inferior in their
results to the way which recommend.
Ny method has the double advantage Of pro-
curing better and surer crop, aud OF doing 1t ut
far less expense.
The most successful experiment in cranberry
raising that have ever seen is in q small pond
hole, which, without any natural ontlet, retained
the water SO late in the season that the only
vegetation 10 Sustained WAS q soft carpet of moss.
This being drained, and set with vines, has pro-
duced large crop Of berries, very superior in
size and color; the location being such that they
could remain on the vines till late in the season
without danger from frost.
