Tobacco Culture.

THE tobacco field is an object of much
solicitude to the grower during the en-
tire growth and development of the
plants From seed sowing until curing
every part of the labor to be performed
is attended with no little risk, and any
mismanagement may occasion consider
able loss to the crop. This is the case
with the growers of the weed in Connecti-
cut, the planters of the South and the
producers on the vegas in Cuba. In
from three to four weeks after trans
planting the plants will, in a measure,
show what the condition of the field will
be-that is, the size of the plants. The
grower should now use every effort to
secure an even growth, which, of course,
gives the same size OF leaves and more
even color. 1t is a fact that but few of
our growers have given this part of to-
bacco culture much attention. The
Cuban planters, however, upon the
vegas or tobacco plantations thoroughly
understand the importance of securing
an even crop. This is important, whetll-
er the grower in stripping shades or as
sorts the colors or not A variety of
colors is too often the peculiar feature
of crop, and gives it a reputation
coupled with low prices. A variety of
colors, however, may be produced by a
variety of causes such as late trans
planting, harvesting before the tobacco
is ripe and planting upon damp ground,
or by using strong fertilizers.
AS soon as the tobacco field has been
cultivated for the first time, and the
plants have reached point beyond the
ravages of the cut worm, the field will
| begin to'make good stand" and the
grower can easily determine what plants
need crowding. All such plants should
receive much care, and some kind oi
| fertilizers strewn around them may cause
more vigorous growth. BY so doing
late and backward plants may be hurried
along so as to ripen almost as early as the
rest. 1t will be seen at once that al
even growth will also result in an ever
topping of the plants, which has much tC
do with curing and the texture of thu
leaf. When only few plants can b'
topped at time, and some of these are
| low and others high, much inconvenience
will be felt in harvesting and an inferio
crop will be, as rule, the result.
! Sometimes an uneven growth is caused
by transplanting few hundred at ;
time, or even a less amount. Too many
growers have but small plant beds from
which to transplant, and make the crop
| failure by late and continual transplant
ing and replanting. A successful grove
of the plant can generally show an ever
piece of tobacco, which will give him tn,
right shade of color, whether it be ligh
or dark. Early transplanting, or, in othe
words, early tobacco, will give, as a rule
light colored leaf, and late to
bacco, dark leaf and thicker texture
The demand now, however, seems likel,
to change, as dark leaf is more inquired
for, and if it continues to be the color il
demand it will have much to do with TIL
selection of soil and the application o
! fertilizers.-N. y. Sun.

A Trap for Cut-WOrms.

THERE is no trustworthy remedy
against cut.wOrms except actual catch
ing and killing them. Any application
to the soil sufficiently strong to injurc or
discommode them would certaiIly de-
stroy the crop, and all the recommends
tions to use salt, carbolic acid, and other
similar substances may be set aside as
useless in practice. We have trapped them
in various ways, beneath chips stones,
and in holes punched in the ground with
smooth round stick, such as an old
broom-handle. But, unfortunately, in
these cases they are caught only after
they have spent the night in destroying
the young cabbages or corn. Finally we
hit upon the expedient of surrounding
the hill or plant with airing of holes close
together, and in this way caught a great
many of the pests every night. Making
so many holes with a single stick is
slow process, but with q contrivance
which is described below the whole ring
of holes is made at one stroke. An old
shovel-handle is split for about foot
with fine saw. The split portion is
soaked in boiling water, to soften it, and
the ends are inserted into holes made in
hoop or ring of wood two inches wide,
one inch thick, and eight inches in diam
etcr. In the bottom of the ring there are
inserted a number of pieces of an old
oroom-handle projecting two inches and
placed not more than quarter of an
inch apart. When this is pressed into
The earth around hill of corn or a cab
bage plant, it leaves a circle of smooth
round holes two inches deep, with com.
pact sides and bottoms. The cut-worms
fall into these holes in their nightly ram
bles and may be found and destroyed in
the morning.-Americdn Agricultural.

How to Grow the 0leander.

THE oleander is very ornamental
plant when properly grown, but we sell
dom see fine specimens. There is scarce
ly one of my readers who has not seen
dozens of tall, straggly plants. l pro-
pose to give few directions by which
fine plants may be grown. Take a
healthy cutting, place it in bottle of
water, and let it remain there till roots
appear; then pot it, shifting it into larger
sized pots as its roots require room. Do
not try to have it branch until it blooms
1t will then have a long, straight stalk-a
good foundation for the plant you de-
sire. After blooming, three shoots will
start; allow these to grow, as these are
the flower shoots; but after these have
bloomed, cut back all the shoots to within
four or five inches of the former branch
ing place. Do this each time the plant
blooms.
Two years ago we had plant given us
which was four years old and several
feet high. In autumn my husband re-
morselessly cut it down to within five
inches of the first branching, but after
starting the following spring it grew rap
idly. The oleander has many good quail
tiles. 1t will bloom well for its owner
all summer, and then after cutting down
in the fall may be put in a dry cellar for
the winter, doing better during the fol
lowing summer for its long rest. While
growing it requires an abundance of
water, 1t would be good plan to allow
it to stand in pans constantly full of
water till after blooming, when water
should be gradually withheld till cut in
and then it should be put in the cellar
and no more water given it till the fol
lowing spring.
1t is well to repot the plants every
three years, just before starting them in
the spring. If you do not wish them in
larger pots, pare the ball of roots with a
sharp knife on the sides and bottom, re-
pot in strong, rich loan, and set in a
shaded place, and in few weeks. the
root viii form anew.-KHty ClOUer, in
Floral Cdbinet.

EDITORIAL NOTICES are so common that
it is almost impossible for an editor to
express his honest opinion of the merits
of any article without being suspected of
interested motives. This fact, however,
shall not deter us from saying what we
think of new addition to the Materia
Medica to which our attention has been
recently directed. We refer to DR. j.
WALKERS CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERs,
a remedy which is making its way into
more families just now than all the other
advertised medicines put together. Its
popularity, as far as we can judge, is not
based on empty pretension. There seems
TO be no question about the potency of
its tonic and Alternative properties, while
it possesses the great negative recon-
mendation of containing neither alcohol
nor mineral poison. That it is specific
for Indigestion, Biliousness, Constipa
tion and many complaints of nervous
origin we have reason to know; and we
are assured OF good authority that as a
general invigorant, regulating and puri-
flying medicine it has no equal. 1t is
stated that its ingredients obtained
from the wilds of California; are new to
the medical world; and its extraordinary
effects certainly warrant the conclusion
that it is compound of agents hitherto
unknown. If popularity is any criterion
there can be no doubt of the efficiency OF
the VINEGAR BITTERs, for the sale of the
| article is immense and continually in
creasinC.

The Secret Of Saratoga Fried Pota-
fOpS.

&C. b. B." writes TO the Springfield
Republican a bit of information that will
interest great many visitors to Sarato-
ga:
Saratoga potatoes, the poetry of
common life and costly charm of Del
monico's and Parker's, can be made in
perfection in any kitchen by the use of
very simple apparatus, consisting of n
sharp blade set slanting into wooden
trough with narrow slit in the bottom,
two wire screens or sieves and common
spider. Select eight large potatoes, pare
them and slice very thin with the cuttir G
machine, soak them in cold water for
two hours and stir common table-salt
into the water--one teaspoonful to a
uuart-and allow them to remain in the
brine half an hour longer, Pour them
upon the screen to drain, and put on n
spider with pound of clear lard over a
brisk fire. When the sliced potatoes dry
on towel, wait until the lard is smoking
hot and pour large plateful into the
spider. The result is like a small sea in
a white squall; and now the cook shows
the artistic soul which every votary of
that nobest of the arts must possess to
be worthy of the name. Patient and
calm, with steady and incessant motion
of the skinner she prevents adhesion OF
any two affectionate slices, and watches
carefully for any tender blush of brown
ness to appear. Slowly it creeps and
deepens until 1t rivals the hue of the
fragrant Havana. Haste then takes the
place of caution, lest any martyrs burn
for the perfection of others; and they
must be quickly spread upon another
sieve to drain until dry and greaseless
enough for the fairest fingers, then served
hot, to melt away like kiss ON sweet
lips, with dying crackle like the fallen
leaves of autumn"

Desirable Qualities in a Pig.

OF all the desirable qualities in pig a
vigorous appetite is of the first impor-
tance. A hog that will not eat is of no
more use than mill that will not grind,
And it is undoubtedly true that the more
IL pig will eat in proportion to his SIZE
provided he can digest and assimilate it.,
the more profitable he will prove. The
next desirable quality is, perhaps. quiet
ness of disposition. The blood is derived
from the food, and flesh is derived from
the blood. Animal force is derived from
the transformation of flesh The more
of this is used in unnecessary motions
the greater the demand on the stomach,
and the more food will there be required
merely to sustain the vital functions I;
and the more frequently flesh is trans
formed and formed again the tougher
and less palatable it becomes. This
quality, quietness of disposition, COM
bined with a small amount of useless
parts, or ofial, has been the aim of all
modern breeders. It's importance will
readily be perceived if we assume that
IS per cent. of the food is ordinarily con
sumed to support the vital functions,
and that the slight additional demand of
only one-siXth more food is required for
the extra otlal parts and unnecessary ac-
tivity. A coarse, restless animal would
gain, in flesh and fat, in proportion to
the food consumed, only half as fast as
the quiet, refined animal. To assume
that rough, coarse, savage, ill-bred
mongTel hog will require one-sixth more
food than quiet, refined, well-bred
Berkshire, Essex or Suffolk is not eXtrav-
agant.-HdTiS.
