OI«l Varii'lic« of Fruits—A pplrs
and IVui*. !
Several hundred years ago, it is 1
said, that the Romans Cultivated fl
the autumn Bergamot pear, the trees !l
of which will now yield (air crops as c
were ever produced if the proper 111a- 1
terials for making pears can he found f
in the soil within the reach of the 1
roots. Tho white Jtoyenne, ( Yirgtdtmt 1
of St. Jlit-harf) the brown Beuerre, St. 1
Germain, C/iar/ettionlelle, and other old 1
varieties w hich have been stnrvtd out ' !
in many localities, will yield just as 1 *
bountiful crops at this period of the ; ‘
nineteenth c entury as wore ever pro- \ \
duced, provided nil tho requirements :
of the soil are complied with. Their :
failure round about Boston and in oth
er localities, is attributable solely to
staceation and the dejiridattohs of noxious
insects.
liveiy season now varieties of ap
ples are originated, sonic of which
seem to possess excellencies superior
to the fruit from which they sprang.
This single tact is an unanswerable
argument agaiust the übsurd theory
of "natural deterioration.” Nearly a
scoro of new, excellent varieties ol ap
ples have been pronounced worthy of
cultivation by intelligent pomologiats,
in only a few of the 'Western States
within two years past. Tho Van Wyek
crab-apple fumirdies a living refutation
of the theory of natural degeneracy or
deterioration.
Keep the Soil Good.
Tho elements required for the
growth of plants are a sufficient sup
ply of carbonic acid, ammonia, nitric
acid, water, sulphuric acid, and silica,
some plants requiring more, and some 1
less of these, according to their van- ;
ety.
These elements can be divided into
two classes ; the first, embracing tho J
first four, which being volatile or gas- j
ecus, are afforded l«v the atmosphere ;
the socond class are required to be
found in the soil. The constant move
ment to which the atmosphere is sub
jected by the winds causes the gaso
ous food to be equally distributed, so
that in all countrios this supply may
be considered equable, and is the
source of the organic or combustible
part of plants, while tho supply of the
becond class, or inorganic food, can on
ly be kept tip by returning to tho soil
whatever ot those materials have been
abstracted from it, in the removal of
crops.
A fertile soil must therefore contain
in a form adapted for assimilation, all
the inorganic matters indispensable to
tho growth of plants. By varying tho
kinds of crops on a field in good con
dition, a fair return can bo expected of
each ; but all tho inorganic matters
taken up by them must be returned
in some shape to the soil, before the
same rotation can be repeated with
success.
Now, how can the farmer return
those materials unless he knows what
has been carried off ? and how can lie
know what has been carried off, unless
he is acquainted with the chemical
constituents of plants ? This knowl
edge can be imparted to lnm by those
who have made the subject their
study, and write for his instruction;
hut it is requisite that ho should read,
if he would acquire the bonolit of such
knowledge.
It has been found that a crop of po
tatoes (about 200 bushels per acre)
contain mineral matters or ash to the
amount of 103 pounds; of theso, 13
pounds are phosphoric acid, eight
pounds, sulphuric acid, eight chlorine,
3 lime, 58 potash and soda, (J silica,
17 oxide of iron, alumina, &e. The
potato tops on the same extent of
ground afforded aslies to the amount
of 302 pounds. Os these, 33 pounds
were phosphoric acid, 7 sulphuric ac
id, 4 chlorine, 7 limo, 5 magneziaj 135
potash and sods, 80 silica, 1(5 oxide of
iron, alumina, &-c. Taking the ash of
the tops arid tubers together, affords
a revelation with regard to one of our
ordinary crops absolutely surprising.
J)o we want anything further to con
vince us of tiro nocossity of a liberal
supply of the carbonates of soda and
potash for the production of this crop '(
or need we be astonished at the rocord
of its continually diminishing yield,
as ordinarily grown without consider
ation of the amount of its mineral con
stituents ?
Hard Times for Farmers.
A farmer in debt will alwnys have
hard times, such as those who own
land and have a comfortable home,
free from all encumbrance cannot ful
ly comprehend. Air. Beech or, who
knows the cost of farming, perhaps,
better than its profits, says candidly :
‘•No blister draws sharper than in
terest does. Os all industries, none is
comparablo to that of interest, which
works all day and night, in fair weath
er and foul. It has no sound in its
footsteps but travels fast. It gnaws
at a man’s substance with invisible
teeth. It binds industry with its film
as a fly is bound in a spider’s web.—
Debt rolls a man over and over, bind
ing him hand and foot, and letting
him hang upon tho fatal mesh until
the long-legged interest devours him.
There is but one thing on a farm like
it, and that is the Canada thistle,
which swarms new plants every time
you break its roots, whose blossoms
are prolific, and every flower the fa
ther of a million seeds, every.plant
like a platoon of bayonets, and a field
of them like an armed host. The
whole plant is a torment and \egeta
ble nurse —and yet a farmer had bet
ter make hi a bed of Canada thistle
than attempt to rest at ease upon in
terest.”
Wanted to know ITow many
square rods in a wiseacre.
Save So:ip *u<l« iiiml Mop*. 1
The slops from tho kitchen should
not bo thrown out at the back door or
window, or near by on the ground, as
is tho case in a grout number of fam
ilies; fur this is very unpleasant and
nauseating, and no doubt is often tlie
source of diseaso to tho family. All
the greasy slopj should be given to the
swine Cyei y day. IT you do not like
to give them to your stock, haul two
or three hundred bushels of vegetable j
mould to somo convenient place, and
put the slops on this pile. As soon
as the pile becomes saturated, haul
an addition of one hundred bushels,
and put evenly over it. This heap
may be in a circular or square shape,
as you prefer ; but it should ho hollow
on the top, so that all tho slops will
run to tho centre when thrown upon
it. If you do not like this, you can
greatly improve your gardens by the
| application of these slops to the vege
l tables ; when tho slops are greasy, bo
! careful net to wot the leaves of tho
| pluiiW in the application. The suds
from tho laundry should he used in
the manner above described. The
rinsings from spittoons, and the urine
trom bed-chambers should not be
wastefully thrown hero and there, but
there should he a special pile set apart
for them ; and by tho uso of a little
plaster occasionally, you will have
nothing unpleasant to the eye of smell,
which is so often the case on many
farms

loss. It is located in the middle of the State, quite convenient of access, so that, where
losses occur, it is not difficult to make all necessary proofs and collect the amount insured.
A careful examination of the list of Directors and Officers will, we think, be a sufficient

To the old patrons of the “Chalybeate,” it
is needless to speak of its merits. To others
we will state that the main spring is pro
nounced by competent judges to be the
finest Chalybeate Spring in the United States
—issuing from the North side of /’iue Moun
tain, and discharging 3,600 gallons per hour.
It is remaikable for the cures it has effected.
We have three other .Springs—.Sulphur,
J/aguesia and Freestone—the whole embra
cing a most valuable combination of miner
al waters. The place is handsomely lighted
with gas.
-E'verv species of innocent amusement will
be provided, among which is a fine

from the mountain. It is 75 feet long, 10
feet wide, and a depth to be regulated by the
bathers, well enclosed and provided with
pleDty of dressing rooms.
A lieatitiful, Level Drive
constructed, along the summit of the moun

ford pleasure to those who hse that exercise.
A Livery Xtable on the place wiil be pre
pared to furnish fine horses and carrioles-
There will be a
Tine Rand of Music
Id constant attendance.
A line of Hacks running regularly from
Geneva, and direct transportation to the
.Spnngs from that point upon the arrival of
every train.
The Table will be supblied with the best
and the proprietor will exert himself to make
his guest comfortable and happy ; and in
view of the stringency of the times, he has
determined to reduce the price of board to
$35 00 per mouth. Washing done at rea
sonable and uniform lates.
While every amusement will be provided
for those in health, the kindest attention will
be paid to invalids.

gotten together for the diseases for which it

icine nnd in domestic practice, and can hou
cstly say that I consider it a boon to suffer
ing females, and can but hope that every la
cy in our land, who may be suffering in any
way peculiar to their sex, may be able to
procure a bottle, that, their eufferiuga may
not only be relieved, but (lift they may be
restored to health and strength.
