OUIGIN Of VEGETABLE-
Garlic came from .Sicily. Beans blossomed
first within sight Of einbroyo niitmaiies, In
the land of Sphinx: and the egg-plant first
laid its glossy measures under the African
sun; and Southern Europe gave the artichoke
and beet. To Persia wc stand indebted fi>r
peaches, walnuts, mulberries, and a score <4
every day luxuries and necessities: to Arabia
we owe the cultivation of spinach, and to
Southern Europe we must bow in tearful
gratitude for the horse-radish. At Siberia
the victims of modern intemperance may
shake their gory locks foruver—for front that
cold, unsocial land, came rye, the father of
that great fire-water river which flouted so
many jolly souls on its treacherous tides, and
engalphed so much of humanity's treasure.
The chestnut, dear to squirrels and young
America, first dropped its burrs on Italian
sod. Whoever dreams, while enjoying his
"Bergamotte," his Flemish Beauty, or his
Jargonelle, that the first pear blossom open
ed within sight of the Pyramids? And what
•air school girl of the pickle-eating tribe,
dreams of thanking th* East Indies for cu

greens, taking so naturally to oar American
soil, that it seems quite to the manor born
is only a sojourner among us? Its native
home is Sardinia, or rather there it first se
cured an acquaintance with civilized man.
Onions, too, are only naturalized foreigners
in America. Egypt stretches forth her with
ert d hand and claims the onion as her own.
Muize and potatoes can mock us with no for
eign pedigree. They are ours—ours to com

SOILING MILK COWS.
I am decidedly of the opinion that it pa>s
to soil milch cows through the summer, for I
succeeded in summering twenty cows well,
the past season, on a place where seventeen
were the most ever kept before, and have
made a larger amount of mannre than some
would have made through the winter from the
same stock. 1 doubled the amount of solid
manure by filling the gutter in rear of the
cows' stalls, every time the stable is cleaned,
with dry inuck. This furnishes abundance of
material to grow my green fodder next year.
I would like to know if any one has ever
tried milkweed for soiling cows? lam of the
opinion that they are much ahead of any oth
er fodder for making milk. Cows eat them
eagerly. It is something I have never tho't
of before this summer. I have gathered a
few seeds and shall try the experiment next
year.
A great amoßut of excellent top dressing
is lost by farmers who hare no barn cellars,
and who take no pains to provide dry mate
rial to absorb the urine from their stock.
This might be saved in still another way, if
those already mentioned are not convenient.
Many cannot have cellars without much ex
pense, and would have to haul dry material
too far to make it pay. Make holes in the
floor in rear of stock, or use lattice work, and
put conductors underneath —half a hollow
log would answer—and conduct it into a cis
tern, from which it may be pumped to irri
gate grass land with small cost and great
profit. — New England Farmer.
HOW TO TEACH A HOUSE TO BACK.
A correspondent of the Rural New Yvi'ker,
would teach a horse to back in this wise: "A
horse that will not, or don't know how to
back, should be harnessed beside one that is
kind and well broken, nnd hitched to a lum
ber wagon, loaded (not too heavy) with wood,
rails, or anything at hand, or that you wish
to move, and then find in the road or field, a
knoll where the surface is smooth and free
from stones, and the descent from one to two
rods. Drive the loaded wagon to the top
aud after stopping a minute or so, command
your horses to back, pulling steady but firm
on the lines. The wagon being in a position
to start very easy, and being loaded, will not
easily stop after it is in motion, and your
horse, if the harness be good, will be very
likely to back down the bill. After getting
to the bottom of the hill, speak kindly to him.
Be sure to say 'whoa' about the time you see
the wagon is going to stop. Patting him and
rubbing your hand over his head and face,
repeat the going up and backing down the
hill until he knows what it means to back,
and then commence backing the empty wag-
on on the level, gradually increasing the load,
and you will soon be able to back all the load
that would be reasonable to back, not forget
ting to pat your horse, rubbing the hand over
his face and head, and calling him a good
fellow, and using him like one. lie willsoon
make up his mind that he really is a good fel
law, and of course he will act like one, and
will become your friend and willing slave,
and do what he is required to, even border
ing on the impossibilities.
SELECTING CATTLE.
Let breeders select dams that have size,
plenty of milking pioi>erl.iea, with riba out of
their loins, like a buliock that is shown for a
prize; standing on short legs, wide and square
made, regardless of registered improved sires,
however numerous, attached to their pedi
grees. Use only true fine, purely bred bulls,
descended from dams of note, wide, deep and
compact made when matured, with hides that
fill the hand, covered over with plenty of fine
hair; animals naturally hardy in constitution
—not BO long as a barn in their middle, and
high on the leg, with flat sides, nipped in
waist, and slack loins. SelecYthe best of
sires from bulls with undeniable pedigree; no
mixed up alloyed gentlemen full of cart horse
blood, which give substance only in appear
ance, and that is not propagated in the stock.
Avoid underbreeding in your bulls: cull, draft
and sell bad milking cows and doubtful, bad
bretders; stick to milk, to size, to robustness
of constitution, and success must attend your
efforts.
FENCES and gates must be looked after,
and put in a condition to keep domestic ani
mals out of young orchards. They will eith
er browse or bark the trees, acd do more
damage in a few hours than will be regained
ed in all of next year's growth.
A WOODEN chair, minus its legs, nailed on
to a block of wood, makes a capital milking
stool. It can be turned down without being
wet or soiled.

"Troublesome cat? —no, sir! It's that

Thtj T'Huhc ij>nn tho voar 1867 More
prosperous to lusiio s tbn-u ever before. The ex
pedfeiH- v oi en lurking our puges—than making
the Tribune tho i&rgozt and the cheapest news
napor in America—was doubted by many. We
bav© found eur account in it. The circulation of
Thrs TriluMe is ttcadily increasing, a*>d our ad
vertizing patronage has increased so much that it
Is more difficult to print our news than w hen we
used a ftoalter sheet, and this difficußj wc can
ouly meet by frequently publishing supplementa
ry pages.
The clf!. B c of the war has imposed upon The
Tribune tic dlscussiop of momentous and pecu
liar problems. Wo have met IFcm as we
laboring with sincerity fur Freedom, Social
Progress, Political Equality, Impartial Suffrage—
All itights for All. A Republican President be
came the enemy of Republicanism, and we have
been called upon to denuunco and expose tec
treacheries of a dograded Administration. It was
not without pain, certainly net without much
thinking, that we inado an b>uc with President
John.son. The people approved our course by re
turning their radical representatives to powtr.
The elections of I Stld—as important to the nation
as Lee's Furrcuder—make new duties. Recon
struction is now the duty of the country—political
reconstruction—reconstruction in fhmucca and
tariffs. We are no longer pre* ed by warncaeas
ties, and we must amend our war experiments.
The present s>nd:tiou of the currency is a griev
ous evil. Trade suffers; our iuanufac;uriug inter
cats ore in a precarious state. A dollar dm not
mean a dollar, but its fraction, it may be sixty
it may be ten. It is a sentiment, nA a fact.
Wben the laborer earns his dollar, he does not
kloW whether he haa one Ioa?of bread or ten.
All business is feverish and unsettled. We think
this can only be remedied by a wi e nnd intrepid
policy at Washington -by reducing the currency
to the specie basis. (Ipin this we shall insist.
The necessity of Protection to Labor again
presses upon lie. We "regret, tha* on this moat im
]j or tan t measure the Republican party is divided.
An boncft but mtsohiev..uß minority in the West,
particularly, are cnjlo. vot tag to 'rcato a policy
which can only result in the prostration of Amer
ican Industry—the degradation of and th<
aggrandizement of English capitalist*. During
the many yenis of our w rk we halo struggled
)gainst this interest We b&Hovo Protection m>.r
necessary now than ever lcf<rc. and we shall insist
irpomthc broadest and wisest legi slat ion for th-"
Rights of Labor.
In the perplexing question of Reconstruct! n
we see no reason to amend the policy which we
have asserted since th" close of the war. It the;;
-•emrd to us that Emancipation of the Black
hould be followed by Suffrage for the Black W.
did not scj the wisdom of a policy of proniiscuou
hanging. We hp I too much blood in wart
ah for blood in peace—<;■ in to gratify angry ren
gcance. It seemeti liuportant ilia: the Aout'.
should concede fiiffrr . e, and that the North should
concede Amnesty. Some of our friends di-ap
proved of this; but Congress has followed our ad
vie©. Amnesty has been approved byt'ougres
—to a greater extent than we claimed in TUn T. i
lime. We h:.\. kill that the men
captives in Rebel duage-one, who mu Jo e l .-ur
rendeicd pik oncr.--, vh violated :Le rules of war.
and aided tie a. Mtt-s in at in of Air. idnvoln, should
be tried and punished. Congress and the Admin
istration have agreed that no punishment should
he inflicted even up n men who are charged with
thtso crimes, and tho only measure looking lik"
punishment is the aiaendniunt of disfranchise
lucntfrcw holding office, which is inertly a south
mental and not a practical penalty. On tho oth
er hand, the passage of the Civil Eights Rill, the
Freed man's Bureau Bill, and the Bill for Suffrage
in the Distriet of Columbia, show that reconstruc
tion will not be consummated without suffrage
and protection for the Blacks. The policy of
The Tribune has been practically adopted by
those who differed with us during the discussion.
We never quarrel with friends wbc urc impatient
with us. We do them the jn>fice believing
they go their way to what is right, judas wetru-t
tboy will do us the juatb e of believing wo go our
way to what is right. We work for the same b
ject, but perhaps in different ways. We have no
higher aim than to secure poare to this nati .
and to all nations— libertv. progress, happing;, ,
virtue, and the universal brotherhood of man.
And for this wc shall continue to t< iI in our best
way.
Wc have reorganised and strengthened every
