Hardy Cherries.


We have found it very difficult to get va
rieties of cherry to stand the climate of
northeastern Vermont. The hardest kinds
we have tried are some of the Dukes (May
Duke, Late Duke) and E arly Richmond, j..
T. Macomber of Grand Isle says that the
Kentish and variety of Morello are hardi-
est there. Some of the Dukes (Reine Hor-
tense, for one) are not hardy. Mr.. Macom-
ber does not give the name of his hardy
Morello, but we see the English Morello,
or large Morello," double starred for Yer
mont in the last report of the American
Pomological Society. A few years ago we
received from the west by mail small trees of
the Lieb aud Montmorency cherries. These
have grown well and seem perfectly hardy,
but have not yet fruited. Montmorency is
given by Downing as synonym for Flem-
ish, yellow, sub-acid culinary cherry but
in his third appendix he gives the Large
Montmorency as hardy French cherry
large, dark red and of good quality season
ten days after Early Richmond. In the
same appendix he describes Lieb as a fine
German Morello, as large or larger thar
Early Richmond, little later, much less
acid and of better quality.

Milk Diet In Brights Disease.

Since we know not at present any drug
that possesses therapeutic value to any
marked extent in this terrible aud fatal dis
ease, and since it is daily making sad havoc
among human beings, and principally among
that class who, by reason of their valuable
public labors, are particularly necessary to
the welfare of the world, therefore it becomes
a medical question Of paramount interest
that we should discover some potent method
of combating this very prevalent disease.
Some years since Carel first called attention
to the treatment of Brights disease by the
use of milk diet, and since then Duncan,
as well as many other prominent physicians,
have written on this subject We have our
selves seen some remarkable results follow
this treatment, while DIR. S. Weir Mitchell,
of our city, is now quite an enthusiast on this
subject. This method OF treating tormid-
able disease has received sufficient dis
tinguished endorsement to recommend it
seriously to our notice. We would, there
fore, ask all physicians who read this article
to try this method of treatment, and to
furnish us with their experience, which we
will publish. The milk is used thoroughly
SKINNED and entirely freed from butter.
To procure the best results it has been
advised that the patient shall restrict him
self absolutely to milk and continue the
treatment for a long time. If it disagrees
with the stomach (as it will in some cases),
DR.. Mitchell advises that the patient be put
to bed, and the treatment commenced with
tablespoonful doses, to which lime water is
added, until the stomach tolerates the milk,
when from eight to ten pints daily should be
taken, and absolutely nothing else. The san
ton of such distinguished physician as Dr.
Mitchell forces us to seriously consider
the merits of this treatment, and we trust
to receive the experience of all readers Of
this journal who may have cases of Bright's
disease to trert.-Medical and Surgical Re

The Miner and wild Goose Plums.

These are two selected varieties OF west
tern wild plums, similar to our native red
and yellow plums, yet not quite the same.
There is difference in the leaves and growth,
and so far as we have seen the seeds are not
nearly so fiat, but resemble more the seeds
of European plums. As to quality, they are
not quite so watery as our plums, but there
appears to be no superiority of flavor. There
is vast difference in our native plums in
size, form, color and quality, and by selec-
tion and the growing of seedlings in culti-
vated ground they might be rapidly i'm
proved. The two varieties named above
have been tested in Vermont, but both of
them prove unsatisfactory on account OF
towering too early, so as to be blighted by
frost. We have had the Miner twelve years
and have never got more than dozen plums
though it blossoms full every year. j. T
Macomber of Grand Isle reports the same
with Wild Goose. Besides this, the Minel
is SO late in ripening that frost catches then
at that end of the season, too.
