Winter Pears. A young cultivator wishes to know what variety of winter, pears will give a supply from the first of winter, for two or three months —such sorts as have been sufficiently tried to be of established character. He has a good supply of autumn pears, but has overlooked those for winter. ... In'answei’ to this inquiry w r e may state that we are now enjoying the Anjou, which is unquestionably the best of this season, the Winter Nelis and the Lawrence, these will probably furnish a good supply till about the first of the year—sometimes the Lawrence lasts nearly into Febru ary. Very much depends on the man ner in which the fruits are kept, and the fitness of the apartments for stor ing them. Keep the specimens in as cool a place as possible after they are gathered, and before they are placed ia the cellar. A cool out-house, or a suitable apartment in a carriage house, fronting the north, answers a good purpose. A fruit room, built above ground on purpose, is best where there are large quantities to be stored; or in the absence of this building an apartment may be divided off by double boarding in some other build ing and covering the boxes in which the fruit is packed with chaffer fine straw. This protection will often be sufficient until the time has far advanced into December; and there, will be no danger until intensely cold weather sets in and it will be some days before the first can pass the bar rier of double- partitions and the thick stratum of chaff. After they go to the cellar, keep the apartment well venti lated and regulated to a low tempera ture above freezing by the thermome ter. We have mentioned the Anjou as the best early winter pear. If kept in aw: rm apartment, it will ripen in au tumn, even as early as the first of Oc tober; but by keeping cool, according to the mode just mentioned, they may be had oven as late ns the first of the jdar. There will be some variations in different seasons. We have known the \\ inter Nelis to ripen fully in No vember. when the autumn has been warm, but the period was retarded some weeks by keeping the pears in a cool place. •After the Anjou, Winter Nelis and Lawrence, the Josephine de Malines is the best ripening in January, and keeping till February. Doyenne d’Al encon ripens about the same time, but is not quite 80 good in quality. It is however a a hardy tree and good bearer, and is on the whole a desirable sort. The Faster Beurre, when it ma matures well, will keep into April, and ripeu into a delicious fruit, but on the whole i. is rather an uncertain sort. Jos phi) o do ALiliues is poor inborn o places, hut is mostly delicious and ex cel! nt. It grows well on quince. (’otuifr', l The Kansas City (Mo.) Times calls for a union of the South and West in the poli tical and materiel questions of the day. It says “Sooner or later the two sections will be forced to unite, or go into inevitable ami involuntary bankruptcy. It is tinio that the i-.t:es of the war were buried. Hav ing well nigh destroyed Republican institu tions, there is ne rea<on why they should destroy every material pecuniary manufac turing and agricultural interest as well.
