Another happy result, too, is that as a

The VaIue OF Leaehed Ashes.

Experiments with leacned asnes con-
tinue to work favOrably, and to win
friends, every year. There has been a
large reduction in price to correspond
with other fertilizers in the market
Formerly, they sold at 20 to % cts, a

tide water. Our farmers now get them
at II cts, delivered at the same place.
in quantities to suit purchasers. They
have been useda great many years by
the farmers and market gardeners OF
Lsng Island, and later by the same
classes in the shore town Of Connect
cut. and sn the tobacco farms farther
inland. The leached aches used come
mainly from Canada, and very largely
through Oswego, whence they are
shipped by canal boat without change
.ntil they are to be used. This refuse
from the ashenos contains considerable
quantities OF potash aud phosphsrc acid
which have a wonderful influence upon
exhausted soils. We notice that when
this fertilizer is once introduced, it re-
tains its hold upon the confidence OF
cultivators, and they buy ashes every
year, frequently increasing their orders.
The onion-grsvers along the Sound
make large use OF leached ashes--buying
sometimes by tbs thousand bushels. -
This is one Of the best indications Of its
value for that crop. Fruit-growers are
much pleased with Its eject upon the
growth Of their trees and shrubs, and
upon their productiveness. 1t improves
the size and quality Of all the small
fruits. 1t Is especially beneficial upon
strawberries and grapes. The use OF
this fertilizer is gradually increasing
among the farmers who are remote
from the harbors where the ashes are
landed. Their effects is Immediately
