ASEI6O£TOEAL Seedling Strawberries. Mr. Fuller, of Long Island, recently gave an interesting account of Iris labors in pro curing seedlings. He said : In attempting to produc: a now variety of strawberries from seed, it should first be decided what are the qualities desired, and then, by selecting two varieties that possess these qualities as near as may be, and by fertilizing one with the other, we can come nearer to the object in view than we could by sowing seed collected indiscriminately from varieties not properly fertilized. For instance, let us take the W iison, which is very prolific, quite large, and firm, but is rather acid, and too dark color, with a calyx that does not part readily from the berry, and the Peabody, which is not pio lific. though large, and is of superior color, and sweet, and has a calyx that parts read ily. . . Now, let us place these two varieties at some distance from other varieties, but in close proximity to each ether, so that they can be the more readily operated upon. — When they come into bloom we remove the stamens from as many flowers as desired, and then with a fine camel's hair pencil take the pollen from the other variety, and dust it over the pistils of the flower from which the stamens have been removed. 11 is well to place a fine netting over the plant ope rated upon, to prevent insects from fertili zing it with pollen from inferior varieties. The flowers should have the pollen ap plied several times, a lew hours between each application, so that the fertilization shall be complete. It is well to use both varieties as parents, and fertilize the Wil son with the Peabody, and vice versa, as it cannot be determined which will produce the best until proved by actual experiment. I do not mention the Wilson and Peabody believing them to be the best to raise seed lings from, but only to illustrate the prin ciple. From my own experiments with them I have been somewhat disappoiuted, for nine tenths of the seedlings from the Wilson fertilized by the Peabody were more acid than the parent, although I succeeded in getting the color, and some of the other characteristics of the Peabody. But using the Feabody as the parent, I have had bet ter success —getting a better colored berry, sweeter, and some plants that were quite prolific, with almost invariably the long neck, which is a peculiar characteristic of the Peabody. Any two varieties of the same species, or two distinct species (unless too far re moved, like the Alpine, which I believe will not hybridize with any of the others,) may be brought together and valuable va rieties grown from the mixture. But it must be remembered that the va rieties now in cultivation have been so mix ed and cross-fertilized that it is almost im possible to get a true cross between any two varieties. The effect of fertilization of previous generations will sometimes show itself when and where least expected. Sometimes the best results will be obtained by merely sow ing seeds of any good variety, trusting to its inherent good qualities being transmit ted to the offspring. From the Austin I have gotscedliDgs all of which resembled the parent, but were inferior; and 1 have noticed that all of this class, such as the Downer, lowa, Charlton, Georgia, Mammoth, kc., are very likely to produce varieties no better than the wild Western berry from which they evidently all originated. It is very easy to get a large variety from this class, but seldom a good one. From the Bicton Pine I have grown large, sweet orange-colored fruit, but, like the parent, unproductive. From the Oscar, which is a poor grower, I have produced fine growers, and those that were moderately prolific; but the fruit was sweet and dry. The results of some of ray experiments are exceedingly curious, such as producing five distinct varieties from the Bartlett, all of which had entire leaves, not lobed. They were very similar to those described by Duchesne as raised by him at Versailles in 1761, and called the Monophylla, it being just 100 years (so tar as I have been able to learn) since the first one-leaved straw berry was grown until the second was fruit ed by me in 1861. But neither were of any value, except as a botanical curiosity. From the lowa I produced a five-leaved variety, and one with leaves having a beau tiful silver stripe, but of no value to the cultivator. To Measure Hay stacks. —Says an old farmer, 'More than twenty years since 1 copied the following method for measuring hay, from an old publication, and having verified its general accuracy, I have both bought and sold by it, and I believe it may Le useful to many farmers where the means of weighing are not at hand. Multiply the length, breadth and height into each other, and if the hay is somewhat settled, ten solid yards make a ton, Clover will take from ten to twelve solid yards per ton.'

Their certificates are published in my American Almanac, which the Agents be! w n uneii are pleased to famish free to all inquiring. Annexed we give Directions for t'neii use in the complaints which they have l-. '.i found t- mre. FOR COSTIVENESS. —T .kc one or t*. Tills, or such quantity as to gently move the bo-.v Cos tiveness is frequently the aggtav-isii.,- e„ of PILES, and the cure of one romp 1 tint is the cure of both. No person can feel \>< " wliii" under a costive habit of body. Ileuee it should be, as it can be, promptly relieved. FOR DYSPEPSIA, which is sometimes the cause of Costiveness, and always uncomfortable, t:ke mild doses —from one to four— t-s stimuli:t" the stomach and liver into healthy action. 'J hey i! do ii. and the heartburn, bodybitr.i, and s r of psia will rapidly disappear. AVhen it has gone, don't forget what cured you. For a FOUL STOMACH, or Morbid Inaction of the Bowels, which produces general depression of the spirits and bad health, take from four to eight Fills at first, and smaller doses afterwards, until activity and strength is restored to the system. FOR NERVOUSNESS, SICK lit VOACKE, X.VUSPA, Pain in the Stomach, Hick, or Side, take from four to eight pills on going to bed. 1 f the*' do not oner ate sufficiently, take more the next dry until tWv do. These complaints wilt he swept oiit from the system. Don't wear these and their kindred dis orders because your stomach is foul. FOR SCROFULA, ERYSIPELAS, and nil Diseases of the Skin, take the Pills frccl y and frequently, to keep the bowels open. The eruptions will gener ally soon begin to diminish and disappear. Many dreadful ulcers and sores have been healed up by the purging and purifying efleet of these Fills, and some disgusting diseases which seemed to saturate the whole system have completely yielded to their influence, leaving the sufferer in perfect health. Patients! your duty to society forbids that you should parade yourself around Use world covered with pimples, blotches, ulcers, sores, and „il or any of the unclean diseases of the skin, because your system wants cleansing. To PURIFY THE BLOOD, they are the best medi cine ever discovered. They should be taken freely and frequently, and the impurities which sow the seeds of incurable diseases will be swept out of the 6ystem like chaff before the wind. By this properly they do as much good in preventing si. km ss as by the remarkable cures which they are making every where. LIVER COMPLAINT, JAUNDICE, and all Bilious Affections arise from some derangement either torpidity, congestion, or obstructions of the Liver. Torpidity and congestion vitiate the bi'.r and render it unfit for digestion. This is disastrous to the health, and the constitution is frequently under mined by no other cause. Indigestion is the symp tom. Obstruction of the duct which empties the bile into the stomach causes the bile to overflow into the blood. This produces Jaundice, with a long and dangerous train of evils. Costivcncss, or alternately costiveness and diarrhrea, prevails. Feverish symptoms, languor, low spirits, weariness, restlessness, and melancholy, with sometimes in ability to sleep, and sometimes great drowsiness; sometimes there is severe pain in the side ; the skin and the white of the eyes become a greenish yellow; the stomach acid; the bowels sore to the touch; the whole system irritable, with a tendency to fever, which may turn to bilious fever, bilious colic, bilious diarrhoea, dysentery, Ac. A medium dose of three or four Pills taken at night, followed by two or three in the morning, and repeated a few days, will remove the cause of all these troubles. It is wicked to suffer such pains when you can cure them for 25 cents. RHEUMATISM, GOUT, and all Infammatory Fe vers are rapidly etired by the purifying effects of these Pills upon the blood and the stimulus which they afford to the vital principle of Life. For these and all kindred complaints they should be taken in mild doses, to move the bowels gently, but freely. As a DINNER PILL, this is both "agreeable and useful. No Pill can be made more pleasant to take, and certainly none has been made more effectual to the purpose" for which a dinner pill is employed- PREPARED BY DR. J. C'.
