THE PEACH.BLOw Potato.

When we stated some weeks ago that it
was our deliberate opinion that we had
gained but little in potatoes since the ad-
vent Of the Mercer and Peach.bloW, we
hardly expected to find that almost
universal experience conceded With our
own. Yet We find from Maine to Missouri
the same cry comes. Let sll potatoes 60,
II they must, but save US the Peach blow.
The way in which some of the newer kinds
get handled is warning to new beginners.
The American Rural Home, of Rochester,
for instance, says of the Peerless: at grows
large and hollow, is good to grow for feed
ing hogs, providing any one will take the
trouble to cook them for this purpose"
This, we believe, is the variety of which it
was reported that ''ffty dollars was refused
for two tubers;" and now to have il refused
by hogs, unless cooked, is running pretty
low, The Home says there is nothing up
that way which "quite fills the place of the
FeachbloH," much the Same experience
which we find here.
The great failure of so many new things
10 come up to public expectation will re.
sultin good rather than harm. There has
really been very little skill or intelligent
labor directed of late years to the produc-
ton Of new varieties, Notwithstanding al
the talk about the ''product Of years of ex
periments" aud the s'pstent rights" which
ought to reward so much patient waiting
Nearly everything we have had before u:
has been the selection from one or two
first seed sowings, hardly waiting to Sc
whether the bud of promise would bios
som to the hope; if not indeed been chsnc
seedlings found with no labor OF though
but the opening of ones eyes. We BE-
lieve we have no popular fruit or vegetable
but is capable of great Improvement; an
no doubt those who go into the search IN
dustriously will find something which vii
well reward their Characterization Tel

rHROuaH THE PASS.

[Just before his death, Capt. Matthew F. Maui
~ expressed the wish which, almost in his very
words, is here giyen.l
"Home-bear me home, at last" he said,
sand lay me where my dead are lying
But not while skies are overspread,
And mourDful wintry winds are signing.
GGWait till the royal march of Spring
Carpets the mountain fastness over
TIL ehattering birds are on the wing,
And buzzing bees are in the clover.
trWait tin the laurel bursts its buds,
And creeping ivy filings its graces
Aboutthe hchen'd rocks,-and floods
OF sunshine ill the shady places.
"Then,-vhen the sky, the air, the grass
Sweet Nature all, is glad and tender
Then, bear me through the GOshen-Pass,*
Amid It's fash Of May-day splendor"
So 4eiU we bear himl-Human heart
To Natures own drew never nearer;
And never stopped she TO impart
Her lore to one who held it dearer.
The stars had secrets for him: Seas
Revealed the depths their waves were screening:
The winds gave up their masteries,-
The tidal nows confessed their meaning.
...... VII.
OfOcean-paths, the tangled clew
He taught the nations to unravel;
And showed the track, where safely through,
The lightning footed thought might travel.
ss.a- VIII.
And vet, unspoiled by all the store
or Natures grander revelations,
WAC bowed more lovingly before
The lowliest of her fair creations?
No sage of all the sages past,
Ambered in PlutaTch's limpid story,
Upon his living age has cast
ga radiance touched with ruer glory.

His noble living, for the ends
God set him,-(duty underlying
Each thought, word, action,--) naught transcends
In lustre, save his noble dying

Do homage, sky, and air, and grassl
All things he cherished sweet and tender,
As through our gorgeous Mountain-Pass,
We bear him in his sunset splendOri

PLASTER OF PARIS AS A SPECIAL
MANURE FOB GRAPE VINES.

A contributor to The Garden, In plant
ing his grape vines, has had excellent sue
cess with the use of plaster of paris as a
manure. ain planting these had the holes
dug about twenty five inches deep. then
threw into each hole five or six Jumps of
old plaster, about the size of my fist.
threw q little earth over these Jumps, and
then planted the vines in the usual way.
The result has been wonderful. The vines,
which were not half an inch thick when
planted, three years ago, are now two
inches and more in diameter and bear fine
". The grapes are also freer from disease.
Other vines not so treated are much smaller
and produce less, the fruit being also more
liable to disease. To try the effect of this
plaster, in planting two American black
walnuts, we put the plaster to the one and
not to the other. Last year we dug about
the roots of the one to which no plaster
was put, and we threw in seven or eight
Jumps Of plaster among the roots; the
trees are now both of the same size, and,
though only four years old, are sixteen or
seventeen feet high"

To Relieve Ingrowing Nails.

This is painful annoyance, and is treat
ed with advantage in various ways. The
most successful is to pare down the centre
of the nail from loot to end. Let it be
worked down quite thin, so as to relieve
the pressure at the sides, which causes the
soreness. Keep the end of the nail well
pared down in the centre, giving it the con-
cave form, just the reverse of the natural
adoa
