Fish FmiiiMi.-???There is an increasing In terest in fish culture in almost ever/ country in the world, in considering the subjeet the St. James???s GaexUc, ot London, asks i Can fish ponds again be made a valuable property and a rofitabfe uwetment, as they certaily were three or four cruturiesagoT The answer depends upon u imiintud?? oi considerations, and mav be entirely different in a hundred different place*. First oi all, no doubt, the country must be suitable, or it will bo absurd to make the attemptt that is to say, it must be easy either to liud or to construct arecepts* cla for the wau r ; ??ud secondly, the water must bo forthc< imng. We will assume that the essential conditions are present, and go on to consider whether even under these favor able circumstances !i*h ponds can be mado to pay. Most pe< pl* in England will doubt or deny it. But, on the other hand, there is the fact that in Germany and in parts of France and Italy fish ponds are still kept up, aud ap patently with tm-cn. Moreover, thoro i> every reason to bcli??ve that in the old times, when every Ei glisU monastery had ita fish pond and most ??? ouutry gentlemen looked upon tho lake in their grounds as a source of tome pleasure ??>ud profit, the fish cultivated were not always of . the sorts best suited for etch district, fctaverfel excellent varieties had sot then been r.VM. introduced into England. Others were n??>t narily obtainable, or there were doubts about their thriving. It is reason able to support- that, with our new knowledge and our afmc*t Unndfesa facilities for intro ducing fish from nil parts of the world, we might bit upon k )a*-A of inmates for every pond in England which would answer better than the gener slit v of fish reared in tho mid die oges. The continrntn! authorities name about ten torts of fish which do well in ponds os dis tinguished from rivrtri, and are capable of be- ing bred with case aud advantage. It is worth while to notice some of Iheto varieties, which might bo tried iu various parts of the king dom. The forettrort placo would by general consent be assigned to the carp, whether of the old Engliali s rt or of sorno one of the aperies more favored in Gormsny. In Polish Prussia many tons of theao fish aro rearod every year and cx/wted to Russia nnd Sweden, besides (he. multitudes consumed at home. These erratum can. as is well known, nomc. These erratum can. as is well known, be tamed and tmined to fecu from tho hand. They can be fatted by hanging them un in a net with damp moss round thorn and feed In them with bread ar.d milk. But tho carp L not u good table fish where Uio cook is not a 8 ocd one. IsHhc \Vh I ton's recipo for cooking lis fish is not a bad one, but it is rather cost ly and trouldi M.ire. The passengers by Rhino steamers are aware that thcro aro simplor pro cesses by no means without their merit. It is in the kitchen, and not in tho pond, that tho carp acquire* that flavor which makoj some respectable Fr. i <*h writers call him a better fish lor tho tabic. thun even tho trout or the pike. Tho trench ccupies on tho continont a place of honor tbai has long bcon denied him here. But tin i> ti c trench must bo indulged with such a domicile as suits his peculu tastes. Ho mu??l i.uvo a dirty poud wherein to dispoit himself; for, liko tho proverbial sow, ho returns, however well washed, to his wal lowing in the mire, aud when prevented from doing ao become* lean and unsavory. Both these kinds and the feat growing bream will thrive in stagnant w*te{,and tho col will livo here as well ae In miming water. But thoro mustbe some considerable movement in tho ponds reserved for lliut animal fish tho roach, whoso virtues hove boon very undeservedly ignored, except by the humbler class of anglers; and tlu* 6;nuo thing may bo said of tli,o dace, and thr.t Active little creature tho bleak, which had been uniuspcctiugly and gratefully eaten >>y many a rauu under tho impression that la- was regaling himself on sardines. Final! v we bavo tho pike, or the i ock, as he should apparently bo called when ic weighs low than livo pounds. This is a doultiul candidate Air a placo iu tho artificial fish pond, lor it is obviously possible that ho may do more mi^ l iof by swallowing other fish than good by i ruvidiog food for tho tablo. On the other bund, it it bo truo that ho takos the slowest and least healthy fish, he may bo useful, as hawk* arc said to bo ou a grouse- mcor. by thicni jg of) tho specimens which would perpetual n sickly breed. Out of this list it would bo odd if a selection could not bo made which .would well stock many a piece of barren land covered with water. Would tin re boa market for them? That is the doubt, but if cottagers aud farmers would only learn how to cook fisb, they would assuredly bo none the worse for var/iur their repasts or on ore** tonal dish of fresh-water fish bought at the moderate price which a pond owner could uHerd to charge for them. It seems certain that an acre 6f water of anything like a reasonable depth, with a fair supply of natural food in tlx- shape of weeds, dies, and other insects, will permanently sapporttwonty couples of adult ti??h or one thousand young ones. But lbt?? ti??b are not the only source of profit to be get from tho pond. Watercross can be grown up -n land near it. The reeds and rushes growing beside the pond make good litter, and ** ive other farm purposes; and the mud ??-f to* pond-bed, which it is necessary to cb *. out from timo to time, forms a valuable manure. Then comes tho not unimportant fact that in many cases the ponds are a barber in hard weather for divers water-fowl, which may be added to the ac count of general profits. Sport must not be wholly left out of consideration; and it is clear that the right of*' be let out under certain appreciable rent. Experience must in each ease be the most valuable test; but there is no reamu why the experiment should not in some case* at least prove a success. . Krxt Yia'i Msi.oy??.???Major L. C. Bryan asys of the melon ??? utlook that there will not probably be any increase of area, tiace the re- ault oi last year???* crop# was not such as to en courage new v< rtures, but it ia reasonable to suppose that the crop will be commensurate with the area of latiyear, and therefore larger, if favorable scasone prevail, since the yield was shortened nearly ???ono-half, in the melon crop, by the sbrddio* of young fruit. If this statement wss true or the last crop uf melons, with favorable seasons the next should be doubled without any increase of area, especial ly with the experience now acquired by growers, and tbr incentives oHorde.I by put failures to make tbe most of ibt present fertil ising and cultivation, while fruit shedding to a damaging extent from wat weather, may be avoided by choice of location for melon fields and proper drainage of the lands. Fiat lands net properly drained will be sure to have their crof* damaged by heavy and continued rains, whatever may be planted on them. Where melons are to be planted on such lands the surface drainage, at least, may be largely aided by raising the beds higher in the center where the seeds ere planted and sloping them toward the middles for the water to pass off down the last furrows. Some plant without beds of any kind, only checking the rows at the distance of ten or twelve feet for tbe bills and ploughing out fiat. Such planting leares the young vines et tbe mercy of the spring licotfe, and It fa not surprising that they are "dromed out??? or shea their fruit soon after. That lands for melon planting should be bed ded, whether flood or drought is to follow. The first six furrows thrown together on the beds should be higher then tbe last, which can easily be done by changing ploughs, using a ???mailer te finish. If to be ploughed both ways, tbe same process can be earriea out and the beds will retain their elevation in the center, in manuring, it should be observed that be- aide the numerous feeders around tbe top roots of young melon vines, there are long laterals tunning off and extending for ward tbe mid dles, showing that manor# is needed else- where aa well as in the bills. To accommo date this necessity it should be scattered well about the hilla and if the rapply will warrant extend toward tbe middles. Better cultlva tion will warrant this, especially if ares it sacrificed to larger yield and superior fruit, which every farmer should practice for his own interest. Superior fruit should be the first object and superior yield the scond, for, however prolific, all will bo profitless without good quality. Superior yield is to be obtain rd by proper drainage, fertilizing and cultiva tion, and superior quality, uniting the forego ing, must have attention to tho choice of seeds aid to tho kind of manure. Good ordinary compost with cotton seed, or cotton seed meal, Diets our view of a proper fertiliser, and if the ground is during tho winter and allowod to mellow, this fertilizer well used in the spring will generally ensure a good crop melons. Ox Breeds or Fowls.???A correspondent of the Country Gentleman writing on this sub- jrct says most well-kept fowls have a certain amount of comeliness, plumpness and regu larity of plumage. The pure-bred fowls have ms??kings that belong lo their breed alone, which greatly serve to establish their purity. When two distinct varieties are crossed, dis crepancy creeps in. A judicious crossing eometimes mikes a nice bird, but more often the beauty of both sides Is lost entirely. At over sized fowl is not handsome or usefuF There are many who breed largely for market purpose, either flesh or eggs. For earl chickens, something that unites size wit! quick maturity should be selected, This uso- lul bird is generally obtained from a crossing of two good breeds, which makes a fowl also good for egg production. A mistako Is often made in the introduc tion of too much Asiatic blood, which element pcrsesscs too much bono, Is long in comiog to maturity, and has attest a poor quality of f)e??b. The Plymouth Rocks are highly es- Iff m?? d for this purpose, but are at best only indifferent layers. Broilers, to be profitable, must be hatched early In tho season, conse quently some rugged, hardy variety must be chosen. This may be obtained from crosses, end tbe hardy, jierslstent Brahmas are always called into use from the fact that they are al ways at hand as sitters at the particular time if year; giving no trouble, and have size and These virtues are at the expense . Thcro is perhaps no better fiesh than of tho game fowl. This breed matures early, Is extremely hardy when young, and will scon grow to fair sise. They will be ready for market fall/ three weeks before any other, when botched at the same time. But they are pugnacious, great ccratcbers, and impatient of any restraint. The farmer and villager dis likes them, for they givo much trouble, while thercgulai ** '** * ??? layers and For early birds tbo English Dorkings nro much to be esteemed. They have size, mature of quality, than of tho UIUI'M IV UO Cllll???illCU. J. UVJ UKUJIUD, IllllfcUlU early, are good layers, aud the chicks are easily reared. They aro not widely kuown. Tbe breed is excellent for crossing or varieties of similar size. It is a mistake to mix the blood of large and small breeds. Tho Dork ings aro large fowls, but the hon lays an egg of medium size. The smaller Leghorn often times excols in size of egg, but tho Dorking fowl will weigh twice ?????? much. The Ilam- burgs ore excellent for eggs, but Indifferont table bfeds. Tho American taste prefers size and yellow skin. With tho consumption of fresh eggs and poultryon the increase at re- muucrativoprices, the query will often arise which breed is best for all purposes. Tho only way to become satisfied as to which breed is the best, is through trial. Mick.???There aro several different qualities of much, some of which it will pay to dig, have, and use and somo which will not pay to handle. Muck is a deposit of decayed vege- tsble matter, and found on marshy spots, or along shallow, muddy crooks, where tho vege tation bos been rank, and whero it has grown up and died down, year after yenr. in such places we dug down for over twenty feet and still did not reach bottom. Tho top soil or do posit, for a foot or two In depth, should be re- moved and rejected, when tho more valuable min k is found. It is, when wet or moist, of a dark brown or black color, is plastic and can be cutout, with nspade iu large cubes. It should bo thrown out into tho wheelbarrows or earls and hsulrd up high enough to bo out cf tbe reach of tides or overflow. Tho work should bodono in the Iota fall or osrly winter, nibbing tbe pile not more than two foot deep, so tbe Irost of winter can work on it, and not only disintegrate it but ameliorate its con dition. In tbo spring, after it has dried out, it will be nearly in the condition of dry ashes, win n it can be mixed or composted with stable m&Lurc, load for load, making the pile easily opplied to crops and of almost equal value to manure alone. For soils which ore deficient in vegetable matter, nothing better can be applied, and many of our worn out southern farms needs just such fertilizing matter, having been irgularly and severely cropped for many }cats, and, iu many cases, with only com mcrcial fertilizers applied. Where there ari deposits of muck on tho farm, the leisure time, of both men and horsei, which generally oc curs on tho farm during the late fall or early winter con be utilised advantageously. While living in Maryland, we dug and used two or three hundred cart loads of muck each year and always found it to pay. Muck should not be applied just as it oomes from tho pit^hut only after it has been frosted all winter. It can, then, be composted with stable manure, or applied direct to some crops. Some of tbo finest crops of potatoes we ever raised were manured, in the furrow, with muck alone. They were of large and uniform size, a heavy cron, and tbe tubers were smooth skinned and free from warty oxcrescences. It can also be applied liberally to corn in the bill with advantages, and it is especially valu able on heavy or clay soils. Sasnixo Taxi firaxa.???A writer from the Few York Tribune says one of the main causes of failure of new transplanted tract ia the dry ness of tbe stem. This begins soon as tbe roots s re severed by digging in the nursery; it is continued by the exposure of both roots and stem to dry air while on tbe way and until tbe n-ots are covered with soil again, aud it continues, after that, from exposure of the stem to hot suns and drying winds, while tho roots, wounded and often act in looae, nncora- parted or unmulched soil, can send up but rcant supplies. Some reduce this danger much by pruning the top to a mare stick; ethers wrap the stem with paper or straw; others wisely encourage leaves all tbe way up from tbe bottom the first season as a moans of ???belter. Mr. Kdson Gaylord, an experienced orebardhts, strongly advises leaning the young tree toward the one o???clock tun. Pro fessor Budd recommends the same practice, and says ha found it carried out so fully in Russia that cherry trees, which are among tbe greatest sufferers from trunk exposure, were generally inclined as much as forty-five degrees, besides being grown as low bushes. Another writer for the same paper says: 1 have bad a great deal of trouble with young trees being killed on the south side, particularly those set out in tbe fall. My preventive is to set a strong cedar post, tight feet long In tbe bottom or the hole before planting the tree; then place the tree against tbe north side of tbe stake and tie. The stake lasts until the tree is well matured, and keeps Proi its cr Fsexiyc.???After a good deal of figuring and footing op, the agricultural editor ??*t tbe Few York Timas has managed to settle himself in tbe conclusion that 20 per cent is a small return for money invested In a term and tterk; $200 for $1,000 or *2,000 for $19,009 is a vary cuninon income from a well conductel Win, and there are abundant opportunities for doing better than that. Many a farmer his gone west and hss bought land there which has paid him 100 per cent for several years. Hop-growing, fruit-growing, poultry- men, her-keener*, and even dairymen, some times make 100 per cent profit, and rarely Ism than 25 or :tO per cent. Let a farmer tell hie ???arm for 110,000 and put in In a 20 per cent min#, and get $2,000 a veer income. He rente n bouse, buys bit provisions and foel, a him a horse or carriage when he wants to go oat, and at the end of the year he will find his in come quite insufficient to keep him in the ccmtort be enjoyed on his term, while a!! the lime tho mine is being worked out, and some day he ia told ???the bottom hoe fell out of it,??? aud he finds all his money has fallen out with the bottom of hia mine, No certain, sure and permanent reduction can be expected to pay more than 5 per cent nowadays, and above oil that has a proportionate clement of risk u But what risk is there about a farm tl free from debt? The bottom never falls out of that, and one may securely onjoy it as long as he lives, and leave it to his children, know ing that a thousand years heuce tbo soil will still be returning Its???generous dividends, Farm Motes. When using the wagon to take a load to the field, throw in a shovel and bring backs load of 1 mm from around stnmpa and logs, woods dirt, and throw it into tho compost Heap. It will pay. Varnish for scrat'hes in horses is raceom mended by a correspondent. He says that b\ washing the disessed parts thoroughly with suds, and applying a coat of coach varuiah, - speedy cure is effected. Few farmers think so far as to put a prop under the tongue or thills of f<rm carts while loading, or at other times when not in motion, and yet thoughlfuless in this matter would save.much suffering to animals. It is claimed that bssswood is tho best iura ber fir water pipes* it keeps constantly sat urated, and in this condition any wood is very durable. A tanner, who laid 390 rods of bass wood logs nine years ago, finds them now as good as new. The following orchard fruits are recommen ded by prominent horticulurfsts as being especially suitable for northern states: Ap- S lea???Baldwin, Forthern Spy, Tomnkia's jug, Rhode Island Greenings, Golden Russet. Bears???Duchess, Bartlett, Sickel and Louisa. Pumpkins and squashes should be kept iu an upper room on boards or shelves, atd just warm enough to prevent them from freezing. Fever put them in a damp cellar or pile then iu balk or where the rats can get at them; better feed them to the hogs or cows at once than do either of the above. Sweet potatoes must be well dried, packed in clean, dry barrels, not so tight as to exclude tbe air, and then the top may be covered with dry sawdust (dried by fire) about two or three inches thick to prevent them from wilt ing br drying up too much. Never nut them in salt barrels or cover the tops so tight as to prevent the evaporation from escaping. Elf lit Household Hints. Hang up a pin cushion In tho kitchen. One keep-clean is worth a dozen make- cleans. A potato, with one end cut off, is better than a rog for scouring the knives. A thin shave roust be taken ??if each time, to give a moist surface. Fingor marks can bo removed from wall pa per by rubbing them with a crust of bread llyo or brown bread is best. If you are troubled with your fiat iron stick ing, put into your clear starch five or six drops of carooil; it will not smell of the oil when the garment is dry. When packages nro sent home fold up all good wrapping paper, running a warm iron over any whirl* aro badly crumpled; lay each kind in a nilo by itself, cither in box or cup board, and many steps will bo saved when a pieco is wanted for wrapping a package. If you wish to sweoten a floor that has grown musty, make a strong hot solution ot chloride of fimo and scrub it into the floor with a broom, having first mado the floor as clean ns soapsuds ana a scrubbing brush will mnko it. Irtho first application does not suffice, give it another, and porsovero until you aro successful. The best roment for monding broken dishes is white lend. It is better tbau all the adver tised cements. With a bit of stick sproad tho paint, which must havo plenty of oil in it, smoothly on each piece, press them tightly to gether, and, if necessary, tie them in place w iping away all paint which oozes out. They must stand for months, or a year, to harden, but at tbe end of that time tboy aro as strong as If they bad never been broken. MARK BERRY, 12 MARIETTA ST. FINE BOOTS -???AND?????? SHOES.
