FLAVOR OF F R FIT IMPROVED BY PBININO. An article in the Journal of Hoiiiculture, has the following very judicious remarks ou the propriety of thiuning fruit; The flavor of Fruit, barring extreme sunless season?, is entirely under the control of the gardener. A clever man can command flavor; a dull man, when he finds his "fruit flavorless, makes idle excuses, which should never be listened to. It a tree trained to a wall be al iuwau to np.ut. say ten dozen of fruit, when five or six dozen only should have been left, they, although tik-y may be of a fair size and color, sutler it; flavor ro an extent scarcely credible. How often has the gurdener had occasion to complain oi his pears not being good, al though produced on fine trees trained against walls. He complains of the srasot.: but it is in most cases owing to the trees being allow ed to bear just double the number they ought to have done. The following ought to he inscribed on ev ery wall, and in every fruit and orchard house. By thinning you make indifferent fruit good. By crowding you make good fruit bad. if very fine and high-flavored fruit be wished for a tree capable of bearing three dozen of medium sized peaches should be allowed to bear only twelve or fifteen. This tninning is terrible work for the amateur. It is like drawing a tooth, and every fruit that falls to the ground creates a pang; but it must be done. A small, sharp pen-knife is the best instrument to employ, and is much better than tearing oft' the fruit with the finger and thumb. A well foimed peach or nectarine tree, be it bush or pyramid, with its fruit properly thinned and nearly ripe, is one of the most beautiful articles the skill of the cul tivator can produce. Let auy one who is raising fruit try the ex periment this season, by thinning the fruit on a single tree of apple, peaches, pears, plums. Ac., where the fruit is too abundant, and he will next year treat all his trees in the same way. A FEW HINTS. Tomatoes, unless already done, can now be set out with tolerable safety. Should cool nights, likely to bring frost, come, the plants should be covered with old paper, boxes or flower pots. Little is gained by early trans planting. A single night may retard the grown for two weeks, and put them behind those set out a week or ten days later. Egg plants do generally better by not be ing set out before the first of June. If'the season is very favorable the last week in May can be ventured on. There is no plant so sensitive of cool nights as this. As soon as the weather becomes hot, both the Egg and the Tomato plants should be mulched. The Yellow Radish for summer use can now be planted. This variety seems to do better than any other for the very warm weather. Now is the time to destroy the steel-colored bug on the young grape buds. The surest way is to go over the vines every morning for a week or ten days and pinch them to death They can now be easily seen. Oue must be expert in cr.tching tbem, as sometimes they fly, but generally leap away if the branch is shzkeu. They eat, in their present form, the 'rait buds, destroying them sometimes entire ly; while their progeny, in the shape of a small dark worm, feed upon the leaves, and if let alone will in some seasons seriously damage the crop. They select the older vines. We have never seen any upon vines under five years old. Radishes sown around cantelope hills will protect the young plant from the depredations of the striped bug. The insect prefers the radish leaf to the cantelope. A good dose of salt helps the product of the Asparagus bed, and at the some time des troys all grass and weeds, otherwise so very troublesome. "V iolets should be transplanted in shady places as soon as summer weather sets in. Flower seeds should now be in the ground. The spring has been so cool up to within a few days that seed was better out of than in the ground. Evergreen trees, hedges and young fruit trees should be carefully forked around and all grass removed. Trees set out this spring should be well mulched. Curled Lettuce heads and stauds slimmer weather much better than the Cabbage Let tuce, which is the best for hotbeds and early out door planting. Okra may be -planted from now io the end of the month. Plant in drills, and thin out to about a foot apart. Drills about two and a half feet. No FENCES IN GERMANY. —The Secretary of the Ohio Agricultural Society has been travelling in Germany. the country near Dresden, he says: 4 'Every foot of the land not in forest is cultivated. There are no fences; the field is plowed up to the roadside, and fruits and flowers are grown by every roadside that I have traveled; no one disturbs them. The cattle, sheep and swine are kept in the stables, or, if taken ont, are under the charge of a shepherd or herdsmen. Here and there dotted over the landscape, we saw sheep in pastnre, but have seen no cattle or swine running about loose. The genus 'loafer' is unknown here." THE FIRST GRAPE GROWER.— The earliest account of the cultivation of the vine is found in Genesis ix, 20: "And Noah began to be a husbandman and planted a vineyard." We are not informed as to the kind or quality of the grapes he planted, but we have abundant testimony that they make good wine in which the alcoholic element was amply developed, as Noah's own testing of the qualities showed- The country in which Noah resided is sup posed to be Armenia, a land still famed for its grapes and wine. BARLEY. —The Canadian Farmer says; "Our last year's crop of barley brought us about five millions of dollars, four-fifths of which found a market in the United States." Now that the reciprocity treaty is termined, a duty of 15 cents per bushel must be paid on all imported. The brewers of Philadelphia, New York, Ac., are petitioning Congress to reduce this duty to 5 cents per bushel. DIARRHEA IN CATTLE,—A correspondent of the Prairie Farmer, cures it in this way:— Take half a pail of bran and pour boiling wat er on it and cover with thick cloth until Dear ly cool, then strain and give the tea to the af flicted animal. Two or three doses is very gure to cure aud can do no hurt. AX OLD SOXC RET TO A.
