REFRACTORY WITNESS FINED.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Nov. 25.-In the
case of Chas. Counsellman, the head
OF the grain firm Of that name, who
refused to answer the questions Of
the National grand jury In regard to
the alleged receipt of rebates and cut
rates from Western railroads, Judge
Blodgett In the Federal court this
morning rendered the decision tha,
Cjusellman must answer. He was
taken before the grand jury again,
and again refused to answer. He
was returned before Judge Blodgett
and fined $500, aud ordered into

Wild Dewberry of Louisiana.

Editor Florida AgricuturiSt:
[ think the last few issues of THE AGRI-
CULTURIsT, containing the proceedings of
the Florida Horticultural Society, alone
are worth the subscription price of the
paper. | have gathered good deal of
solid information from them
[ am struck with WhaS Mr. Mott says
of our wild deWberries The dewberry
grows wild here in our sWamps. We have
two kinds, dwarf kind that grows over
two feet high, upright and bushy in
growth, and producing very large, lus-
cious berries until the plant fairly bends
down to the ground with it's weight
Of fruit. The other kinda trailing
variety, running and struggling grower
[ should think hard to cultivate unless
staked Or run on a trellis. This variety is
quite prolific, but prefer the dwarf kind.
am going to dig some plants the coming
fall from place near here called Prairie
Boune Aux, where they grow to perfec-
ton. Like Mr.. Mott and others, have
tried the Northern varieties of deWberries
and they fail here; had I planted our wild
kind | am sure | would have had some
fine berries, but you see, Mr.. Editor, was
captured with their fine description, and
| was under the impression that they
were much finer than our wild ones
There is nothing like practical experience
and / now know better, and like Mr..
Mott believe the wild dewberries of Lou
isiana are worthy of extensive culture in
the extreme South.

"A DrOuth Com batter.

In order to be sure of having some fresh
vegetables through the dry season we
sometimes set up a bot omless barrel
near the well, fill it with we'll rotted ma
nure, cap it off with soil, leaving deep
basin in top in which to pour water. AT
ter the ground is well prepared for several
feet around the barrel we plant hill of
cucumbers, squash vine, set a tomato
plant, an egg plant, plant a few lettuce
and reddish seed, etc., till we have quite
little garden around the barrel. We
then water all through the barrel OF ma
nure. OF course it takes an abundance
of water. The barrel must be where the
chickens, dogs, etc., can't get to it. Ii the
vegetables seem to fail after time empty
the barrel and refill with more manure
Give this fair trial and you are con-
WINGED at once what irrigation will do.

How TO Make a Family Garden.

HOW TO Make FanIly Garden.
Now is the time to prepare the land for
a family garden, SO as to have vegetables
all the time. Select a piece of new land,
clear, plow and harrow thoroughly and
then fertilize well and pillow again and as
soon as the rainy season commences fer
tilize and pillow and harrow well again.
After the first heavy rains are over and
only moderate ones have commenced
pow and harrow, and if not rich enough
fertilize some more. Ii you have cattle,
pen them on the land, Or apply stable
manure and commercial fertilizers, or any
kind you may prefer. Newland is prefer
able for the reason that it is not seeded
to crab grass or weeds, which are diff
cult to keep out OF old land.
In making a good family garden the
seeds are as important as the land, and
to plant many varieties it requires too
much land and labor. Buy lucent
package each of turnips and ruttabagas,
two papers each of mustard, radish, col
lards, cabbage, Okra, caulifOWer, cucum-
bers, beets and beans, and you have SUI
ficient for agood garden-when you have
q good season. Ii too dry water the
rows in the evening to bring up the seed.
The cabbage and cauliflOWer can best be
planted in boxes, where you can attend
to them BETTER and transplant when they
get large enough. 1t is better to trans
plant ruttabaggas. Keep the soil well
stirred and there is no doubt about your
having vegetables all the year.

Cow Penning in the Orange Grove.
The question of cheap production is of
vast Importance to orange growers.
The present system of caring for a bear
ing grove entails heavy outlay ofmoney.
Flowing, hOeing and fertilizing represent
a good account against the crop, if the
grove is literally dealt with. In their
place have cattle. Divide area of grove
into lots; pasture lots in rotation. If
cattle are not supported by pasturage,
which will be the case, buy food for them.
If you have good breeds the offspring,
milk and butter will offset food account.
The grove will be fertilized without ex-
pense, and it's productiveness made
more certain than by following the sys-
tenn of tearing the roots, the support of
the tree, each year. Each tree will be, in
a measure, like those about the house.

CabbageS on Pine Land.

Cabbage can be successfully raised in
Florida sand as follows: In October re-
move the grass and weeds from the land
without stirring the ground. With hoe
make holes in the ground six inches deep
in straight line two feet apart; put in
each hole hand full of cotton seed meal
well chopped into the ground and then
bury in the bottom of each hole q
piece of cow droppings as big as the two
hands placed palms together. Set the
cabbage plant Immediately over the cow
droppings, and water so as to saturate
tie hole thoroughly. Cultivate about
one and half inches deep, filling up the
hole gradually and as often as Judgement
would dictate. This modus operandi has
just given us brittle and delicious cab
bages. j. j. W. p.

long, not more than two from each vine,
beginning at top or bud end. Drop fif-
teen inches apart across beds, center of

use a stick three feet long with notch.
Put notch on center OF vine and shove it
down on slant, leaving one or two eyes
on each end of vine out. If the vines are
inclined to break let them wilt an hour

Will some of the chemists Analysing

95 per cent? Will they tell us the per-
centage in phosphoric acid, silica, mag

ingredients that go to make up an IS
per cent specimen of phosphate? Then,
if they can, give us the average percent

per cent. is found. 1t would be informa-
tion that would enlighten the public in
regard to the commercial value of our
phosphate deposits, if coupled with the

by-products of phosphate meal, in the
manufacture of Bessemer steel, be fur
nished much cheaper than it can be done
by our phosphate companies? Ii the
phosphoric acid from our phosphate beds
cannot be made available at less than 6

the manufacturers of Bessemer steel can

French Treatment of the Phylloxera
Although Twas not present at the H or,
ticultural assembly held here April 3Oth
to May I'd, have read the proceedings
with interest.
Since then | have talked with several
persons on the subject of root-knot on
peach trees and vines. On examining a
file of the Scientific American which have
[ find the following in the April II, 1875,
number, which may be of interest to
many, as it was to the French:
"Previous to April, 1876, a law was
passed by the French Assembly decreeing
prize of 100000 to any person who
should invent means of effectualIy ex-
terminating the Phylloxera (root-knot
or root disease) To this large sum va
rious vine growers, corporations and
municipalities throughout France added
other amounts, forming q total, the ag-
gregate of which though not definitely
known to us, might certainly be placed at
very handsome fortune for the lucky
discOverer
'ln order to compete with q chance of
success it is necessary that the expert
ments be repeated, prolonged and
authentic, and they must prove beyond a
doubt that the means tends either to
cause the phylloXera to disappear from
the vines or roots by an economical pro
cess, or to preserve healthy vines against
the ravages of the pest, or to check it's
inroads while insuring the life and fructi
flying the attacked plant.
Son page 1856 [same volume] M. Dumas
recently wrote to the French Academy OF
Sciences that a mode OF treating vines at
tackled by phylloxera had been discovered
which is certain in it's results in Destroy
ing the insect and in restoring the vine to
health and fecundity.
'"The remedy is the combined employ
ment of lpho-carbonate of potash,
which kills the insect at any depth, to the
soil and of potassic, ammoniacal and
sulphureted manures. Les MOrIt states
that M. Dumas himself is the fortunate
discoverer, though his announcement to
the Academy was not made until after
his process had been tried by exhaustive
experimenting by the commission ap-
pointed to examine into the various plans
submitted.
"This being thecase, M. Dumas becomes
the possessor of the 100000 reward, be-
sides the numberless other prizes of small.
Ter sums offered throughout France.
THE PROCESS.
"With an auger having hollow shank
perforate thesoil around the affected vine
or tree. Into each hole pour through the
hollow shank small quantity OF sulpho.
carbonate of potash. The water and car.
bonic acid in the soil are sufficient to dis.
engage gases from the materials named
above, which exterminate insects, while
the potash acts as an excellent fertilizer
for the injured tree or vine."
