CULTIVATION OF THE STRAWBERRY
The discoveries of scientific and practical
men in the past few years have exeite:d a
large amount of attentionYroin that Class of
our farmers whose labor is given principal
ly to the cultivation of • smaller fruits.
Among the most saleaole'of these s , paying,
probably the largest percentage to the
rrower, is the Strawberry. Five hundred
- 'dollars from an acre in grain 'or grass Would
lie deemed an impossibility, but that amount
from an acre of Strawberry plants is fre
quently- realized. The fear that an over
stocked market would place their price be
low remuneration, has proved groundless,
for it has been found an impossibility to
overstock the market. Many of our far
mers contemplate 'this use of their ground
fur coming years, and to them we would say
always set out the best plants, even if their
cost is considerably above the average, for
this will be found the truest economy in the
end. Light, loamy soils with clay slibisOits
an) best for this . purpose, and a fair 'atnonnt
of exposure to the sun is also of value: Per-
Imps there is no plant more sensitive 'to the
touch of proper fertilizers than this one,
and too much attention` 'cannot 'easily be
given to this. fact. • The, land should be
placed in the most cultivated order before
setting out the plants, which should be kept
out of the sun and in a moist. conditiOn 'un
til they are transplanted. If the season is
dry and hot, it will be necessary for a,short
time to water and shade them through the
day, always taking care to uncover - them at
night so they may receive the 'invigorating
effect of the dew. •
Strawberries are best groWn in beds fbur
feet wide. This secures convenience t in gath,
ering and allows opportunity for cultivation.
Three rows should be put in a, bedziond the
plants in each row placed twelve inches
apart. If the pales, to-,-whighl-we have al
luded are observed the transplanting may
be done in any month from March to Novem
ber, although the summer months are pre
ferable. The fewest runners, are made by
those set in June and as more or less'of these
are desired farmers Av,ill. either-use,or,a,vold
this month' in their work.
,An acre Of theSe
plants can be set by an experienced man in
a day and will number about 10,000.
It is of great importarice, to keep them
free from weasiin:the summer.:_ A. neglect
of a few weeks in this matter will often
make it impessibletofmake worth
to preserve the beds; and yet'a small amount
of attention and labor will prevent their as
cendency. Mulching in winter - is never
neglected by the successful grower. Corn
stalks will answer a tolerable purpose, but
rye straw is preferred above all .other arti
cles.. The covering: should be ,clone in . N
ovember, and removed as soon as the freezing
weather is over and before the plants have
made any growth. The covering that is
taken off need . onVbe _placed between the
rows perO. serve - Lo keep the ground
moist and thus facilitate en early growth,
besides keeping - the. weeds down and the
fruit clean. No good fruit however can be
raised in large_ quantities without the use of
suitable fertilizers. Common barn yard
manure is good but its constituents are too
cumbrous to be of great value. , One chord
of this (3,000 pounds,) contains 2,556 pounds
of water and 138 of sand, 332 of carbona
ceous matter, which arc of no more value
than so much peat straw or chaff. There is
but 74 pounds of active fertilizing material,
such as nitrogen, potash, soda, lime, niagne=
sia, phosphoric and sulphuric acid, chlorine,
iron and alum. It would startle some of
our farmers to learn that the market
value of these 74 pounds is only $3.00 yet
such is the fact and proves conclusively that
barn-yard. manure however valuable for
other purposes is but of little use in this.
The best and cheapest fertilizer for this
fruit, in the judgment of those growers
who have tested all kinds most thoroughly is
Baugh's Raw Bono Phosphate of Lime. The
resultsprodneed by this are trulYhStoniShing.
The testimony to its value is of the fullest
and most satisfactory character.
It can be applied,to .the bed at any time,
during the spring, summer, or fall months,
but some of the most successful., growers
have given a preferericeto the peritidlolloW
ing the bearing season.— West Jersey Pioneer.

GOVERNMEMT SURVEY OF THE CENTRAL
BASIN.
An exploring party of more than usual
importance has just left the Atlantic for the
Pacific coast to make a survey, under the
direction of the United States Government,
of a belt of land near to the fortieth parallel
of North latitude, stretching from the Sierra
Nevada to the Rocky Mountains. Through
or near this belt will pass the Central Pacific
Railroad, and the object of the expedition
is to gather in advance as much information
as possible respecting the structure of the
country, the mineral resources, the agricul
tural capacity, and all. the other physical
characteristics of the region. The expedi
tion is so well organized and there is so lit
tle exact knowledge in respect to the district
to be examined that high anticipations are
entertained of the scientific ancl±practical
results which are likely to be reached.
The survey is ordered by Congress; it is
to be conducted under the direction of the
Secretary of War; and, more particularly
still, under direction. of the chief of the U.
S. Engineers, 'Major-Orenetal . A.: Hum
preys, to whoni; the party wilt repOrt and
from whom they have received their 7 gon9ral
instructions. This distingnisedlOfficer, whose
Immo has long been indentified with the ex
plorations and surveys' directed by the War .
Department orthe Gotqiilimetit, has'
shown the-greatest interest in, -promoting
the ob3eotV Of thit ew expedition, 'and to
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THITRSDAY, RINE 21, 1861.
his experience and good judgment in fitting
out the party much of its success will be
due.
The head? of the party in the field, is ,
Clarence 'King,. a' gentleman of about five--
and-twenty.years of age ) educated, in the
Sheffield Scientific School of Yale College,
and connected for a few years past with the
State' Geological Survey of California under
Prof. J. D. Whitney. The experience
which he has: thus . acquired As a fountain
explorer adinfrably" fits him for 'le leader
ship-in this new expedition , . Helas travel
led extensively ,ainong the great mountain
regions of the West, has ascended and
measured some-0413e loftiest peaks, - is
ured to the exposure and hardships of fron
tier life, and appreciates fully all the condi
tions which are essential to success. Nine
assistants are „under his direction. His
friend and associate in the California sur
vey, Mr. James T. Gardner, who has lately
been engaged with Mr. King in surveying
and mapping, the' famous Yo Semite Valley,
and the adjacent mountain region, is the
first assistant.' in topography, and -Prof.
James"-D Hague,'of the Massachusetts In
statute of Technology, likewise an experi
enced. traveller, is the first assistant in geol
ogy. There are also two other topograph
ers, two other geologists, a zoologist, a bo
tanist, and a photographer, On their arrival
in• California a squad of twenty-three mount
ed Californians, under non-commissioned of
ficer's, will be .detailed by the military, au
thorities asitheir escort,.and:six drivers and
packers will complete the
..personnel of the
party—a company of thirty-nine in all.
By turning to any good map of the West
ern mountains the reader will see that the
proposed line of exploration extends from
the 120th to the 105th 'meridian, or from
Pyramid Lake, near Virginia City, on the
eastern slope Of the Sierra Nevada, to Den
ver City, on the eastern slope of 'the Rocky
Mountains. The length of the track to be
explored is about 1,000 miles, its breadth will
not exceed 100. The great desert of
Nevada and Utah and the various parallel
ridges and valleys by which it is traversed,
including the lofty ridges known as' the
Eastern and Western Humboldt River Moun
tains, and the Wahsatch, Mountains to the
East of Great Salt Lake, will, of course, be
included in their observations. The party
hope to go this year, between the first of
July and the first of November, as far as
Fort. Riley, and then to spend the winter,-
which is there.too severe for field work, in
the neighborhood of Virginia City. Next
year they hope to,reach Salt Lake City, and
their work out *of doers is to: be completed
in the third year. Of pours° much addition
al time will elapse before the scientific re
sult of the, expedition can-be fully published;
but everything of iminediate practical va
lue, especially with:referenee to the con
struction of the.,Central Pacific Railroad,
will be,' as •We understand it, at once made
puldie.
An accurate map of the region is the first
desideratum, and the necessary • surveys

may be consistent with accuracy. It is ex
ceedingly important, alSo, to ascertain .
whether coal can be found:in that region of
such quality and in such quantities as to be
a dependence for the coming locomotive.
The position of water supplies in that de
sert basin is another most important topic
of inquiry. So, also, the possibilities of
agriculture need investigation. The geolo
gical and mineralogical characteristics of
the country will, constantly be examined.
In short, to examine and describe the geolo
gical structure, the geographical conditions,
and natural•. resources of the country will
be the aim in view. —The NdtiOn.

were first used in 'private practice in 1825. They were introduced
to the public in 1835, since which time their reputation has extended.
until they have a sale in excess of all other Cathartic and Purifying
Medicines. There is hardly a family among civilized nations who
have not personal evidence of their beneficial effects. Their great
success is owing to their uniform reliability in cases of Constipation,
Bilious and Stomachic diseases, whether of long or short duration.
They are entirely vegetable in their composition, and harmless to
the gentlest infant. One ingredient opens the pores of the skin;
another is diuretic; and stimulates proper action of the kidneyi; a
third is emollient, loosening phlegm and humor from the lungs;
other properties are warming and cathartic, and cleanse the stomach
and bowels from all unhealthy secretions. Their combined effort
