M.\TAV.V, Joseph Isrzist suggested that there were many fine specimens of weft kept grapes on the table?, it would be interesting to learn of exhibitors how titer hndLeen kept. I'r. i'erru e. of 1 'au.sville. exhibited s#gc.- imensof Catawbas and Isabellas. Said: The vine* on which the grapes grew have borne three years. These grapes were picked on a warm sunny day, when they were dry and packed as picked, in boxes that hold fifteen .or twenty pounds each. These Mixes are made of pine, so that they can becloud tight, the covers are fastened on one* aide with a hinge muftied with,a string—so that I think thij hopes art-a.-Ji ht as they would lie if narledf The fruit has not been overhauled siiiee picking, f store in a cool, dry cellar, built with reference to keeping fruit. Jt ises s-'ntial they should be ripe in order to keep well. I think the Cat Aw ha keeps bi-Utr than the 1.-abefl.O—retains ft? flavor batter. Barry.—Jn order to keep grapes well in a fresh state, they must be ripe when picked — the" fiper. the better they keep. T have Isa bellas in rnv cellar as fresh as when taken i. Am the* vine. My Cfttawlias were not ripe, and although they look well they have no fla vor. Thiaexhibition of fresh gi-apes shows wfiflf progress .wis hiake. Dr. fipence.—Two years ago I had a fair crop of grapes. As I picked them, ptji them in stone jars, and after allowing them to sweat l iiled them up by tying a paper over the or nth of he,jar and inverting it in melted wax: Thf-ii packed the jars, in buckwheat i iinfi. kepi cool, and they kept very nicely. ] i-ered 'hem fie.tt in April, arid found '.he .-■'etiirt as fine and fresh as when pocked, j , i l 'uui 011 the fruit, flavor good—perfect. In j tlii- wav I have kept both Isabellas and C- [ tawbas. I never auet-ceded in keeping the Defnwere. The Catawba is a tatter keeper 1 than the Delaware, and the Diana still better than the Catawba, i find it improves their keeping qualities if t.he Diana and Catawba are gathered a little early. I'irh.— ! have not been successful in my ef forts to keep grapes. Have tried every means j I hftve;seen recommended almoit. Have suc ceeded best by packing them in saw dust. Ar- 1 ranged fur a few barrels of hard maple saw dust, which 1 baked dry, and in which 1 pack ed my grapes ami keipl elssely in a cool place; but I had not a single bunch to bring with me to this meeting.. I)r. Perkins.—-I picked some of my grapes at the same time as those on the table, laid them in a grape room where they were allow- | ed to remnin several days, when I assorted and packed them. They did not keep so well as those that were packed as picked. ! : Judge l.arrowe. —It is not difficult to keep j grapes. The fruit should be ripe if yon want J to keep it. We pick from the vine when dry, t and pack directly in crocks and seal up. We j put something—usually small dry pine blocks j li om one-half to an inch in thickness—in the i bottom of the jars to absorb the moistnre. We ■ seal up tight and keep thein in this way until , the succeeding July, when they will come out j of the jars with the steins green, bloom on I the fruit, and flavor as perfect as when put ; up. We seal the jars when we pack tbem air tight, then set in as cool a room as we j have m the house. When it gets cold so that diey are likely to,freeze, putin a cokl cellar Put this is expensive comparatively, and un necessary when the fruit is only to be kept for winter use. We pick into boxes, take directly ! to the grape house, and Btore in the racks nn- 1 tilit is necessary to remove them on accoiint of frost. Then we pick them over, pack in boxes between layers and this way we keep Oatawha, Isabella and Diana until April with out difficulty. Have never succeeded in keep ing Delawares. They are like fall—you can not keep them. t " A 1 have never succeeded in keeping grapes grapes until this year. They were packed in larger boxes with about a thickness of dry j leaves around them. They come out ! now, perfectly fresh and of good flavor. In this way keep Catawba, Isabella, Dina. and Rebecca. I wrapped each bunch of Dela wares in tissue paper and packed in boxes like the rest, and they kept until a week ago. Thomas. —There are three requisites essen- tial to keeping grapes well: 1. Yon must get them ripened. 2. Enough of them are neces sary, so that they may not be consumed. 3. 1 inn satisfied too little attention is paid to the moisture in the room in which grapes are kept, rhe amount of moisture in aroom will <pend upon its situation, the manner of warming it, Ac. It should be dry. H. N. Langwortby.—Almost all kinds of fruit will keep longer if picked before they are dead ripe. Here aft specimens of Rebec eaa that were not dead ripe—scarcely in eat ing order when picked. They were gathered before and exhibited at the meeting of the American Pomological Society, at State and other fairs, and they are sounder to-day than another sample here gathered a month later. The grapes left on late, however, though they do not keep so well, are of better flavor— and yet those first gathered are very acceptable. My theory is, concerning the relative keeping, that the earlier picked have not fully matured and have the power of maturing, and are lon ger getting ripe and keep better. Here are Kebcecas that were left on the vines as long as they wouuld hold on, and I find they will bold on until they freeze off. Dr. Sylvester.—l he remarks of Mr. Thom as concerning the moisture in rooms, reminds me of some experience I have had. I have a closet surrounded on all sides by other rooms. There are shelves in it. In the up per part of it is a chimney which receives the pipe from stoves in the adjoining rooms, thus furnishing heat enough to dry the air in the closet. I packed a few bushels ot Isabellas in the market boxes and stored on the shelves in this closet last fall. They are now in go6d condition for eating, flavor good, but the heat from the chimney baa wilted them somewhat. Grapes packed,in l'rance in jars, as by Judge T afrowe, kept plump and sound, rmti thought they had, when they were open ■ed here, a musty flavor. Grapes should be perfectly ripe when gathered, kept as cool and dry as possible, and yon can keep Isabel las, Cat&wbas, Dianas, and Clintons without any difficulties. Judge Larrowe.—l have jnst tasted of my l'riend Langworthy's Rebecca grapes and those picked before ripe are not fit to eat. The Rebecca is a very fine keeper. You cannot ripen the grapes in the house as you can other fruits. White grapes color before they ripen. The Catawbas soften before they color; the Isabellas color before they soften. Keeping in straw as I have described, is the Lest and cheapest way to keep a quantity for whoer uie. l'aeked daily m boxes they are liable to mould: but if allowed to cure firrt and then packed in dry straw, which will ab sorb the mbTsture, they will keep well. Larrowe.—We pick directly from the vine add put in crocks, and the bloom and stems are greeu when they are opened, as before We do not press them in the jars, but lay them in closely. I have kept till July as fide as I ever had from the vines. Olmstead.—l have drawers that will hold wenly-tive pounds each. I remove all imper fdct grapes, pack in these drawers and slip them into a rack in which 1 keep them. I lepve them in this condition, three or four wpeks, then pick over and pack carefully in the same boxes and put in acool room, piling tlje boxes on top of each other. In this way wje have grape to use all winter in the family, as plenty and freely as apples. Grapes wi.t bfcara lower temperature than we usuallygive tiem. I have kept Abe Delaware until the - first of January, by stcmug tfcu carefully on zinc. I believe we will leavw how to keep it yfct—/Wf Xew Yorker. EXEKAL ELECTION tKOO3L^A-^i:A.TXDiT. . WiiKitf.

These Powders have proved, after a trial of sev eral years, to be superior to any preparation of the kind in use. The chief superiority of these powders arises ftom the fact that they arecompos ed of medicines that have Laxative, Tonic and Purifying properties. The laxative ejects crudi ties from the stomach and intestines, the tonic gives strength to the system of the Horse, and the puri fying medicines contained in them cleanse the blood, and lay the foundation for a vigorous 'and healthy circulation. The use of them improves the wind, strengthens the appetite and gives the horsea fine, smooth and glosa.v skin—thus improving the appearance, vigor and spirit of this uobVanimal. These powders are not intended, as most pow ders are to bloat the animal, so as to give him the appearance of being fat when not really so—but to remove the disease and promote his general health. These powders will strengthen the stomach and intestines, cleanse thein from offensive matter, an * bring them to a healthy state. They are a sure pre vention of Lung Fever, and a certain remedy ell diseases incident to the Horse, as (slanders, Yellow Wafer, Distempers, Founder, Heaves, Sla vering, Coughs, Fevers Loss o*. Appetite and Vital Energy, Ae.—These powders, if used two or three times a week, through the winter and spring, your horses will never get the Lung Fever Corie or llottg. A few doses of these powders will re move tlto worst cough, on any horse. Were own ers of horses to feed a few of those powders every year, they might save the lives of many valuable horses.

In fa'tcn ing cattle, it give* them an appetite, loosens their hide, and makes them thrive much faster. HOGS. In all diseases of swine, as coughs, ulcers in the hmgsaad liver, Ac., by {tutting from half a paper to a paper of these powders in a barrel of swill, the above diseases can be cured or entirely prevented.
