Jfittintr's gtprtmeul. How to Wake Good Cider. There is hardly a tithe of cider made now as compared with forty years ago. Many of the old orchards have died out, and the tem perance reform lias prevented their renewal.— The market for fine fruit litis greatly expanded and nearly all the trees now planted are for the production of market apples, it took eight bushels of apples to make a barrel ot cider, and the barrel sold fur only a dollar.— Apples now bring every year from fifty cents to a dollar a bushel. Fruit growers can hard ly be expected to lament the change that is HO much for their pecuniary interest. Yet cider is still made all over the country in small quantities, some for the apple butter, some for vinegar, and still more for a beverage When bottled and properly handled, it is as palatable, and mm It more wholesome, than most of the wines of commerce. In affections of the kidneys, it is an excellent remedy, and should have a place in every will appointed cellar. It is a matter of some importance, that what cider is made, should be made in the I est manner. The apples should be well ripened, but not in the least decayed. Every apple with the least speck of rot in it should be removed, if you wish it first rate beverage. The decayed and inferior apples may be reserved for making vinegar. Perfect cleanliness should lie observ ed in the grinding process which should be per formed two days before pressing, and Ihe pom are bj pennitti d to stand and mellow in the vat, until it assumes a deep red color. Ch an dry straw should lie used in forming the cheese. If the straw be musty, tin; flavor will lie com municated to the juice. Jf water Do added, it will make it hard and unpleasant to the taste. The Casks, also, in winch it is put for fermen tation, should be thoroughly cleansed, tiinl fin ished off with a fumigation of brimstone. Tn s is done by burning a few strips of canvass inside the barrel, dipped in melted brimstone. The fumes will penetrate all the pores and destroy the must and correct the sourness After the fermentation is over, draw off into clean barrels, and clarify it. This can tie done by mixing a quart of clean white sand with the whites of a half a dozen eggs, and a pint of inustaru seed, and pouring it into the barrel It may stand in the barrel, or, if a nice article is wanted, it should be put into some quart bottles and corked. This cider will be fit to drink in esse of sieknees, and will always bear a good price in market. It retails it twenty five cents a bot tle, and would bring at least two dollars a dozen by the quantity This is much better business than to make a poor article from decayed apples, in a slovenly manner, and seil it for two dollars a barrel. —[ Correspondence American Ag> icuilurist. Sow RYE EARLY. —Of all the crops raised in this northern climate, rye is perhaps the most surest ; but even rye, sure us it is may fail, and that too, in a good season like tin present. A neighbor of mine sowed part of a field with rye on the 25ili of August, 1857. and the balance of the same field the l ist, of October, land and seed both alike. The result was, a good crop on the portion fir.-t sown, estimated at 20 to 26 bushels per acre, while tiiut sown late was not harvested for the rea- ! son that there was nothing to harvest I have j known similar instances almost every year, ami yet there are those who continue to throw away their seed, lose their labor and the use of their land, bceause they hare known a good crop raised on new cleared land, sown so late that it did not come up till Spring. Carres fondence American Agriculturist. THE GRAIN DRILL. —This implement lias become of such general use as to be considered almost indispensable to the farmers. Its prin ciple advantages are the regularity with which it distributes, and the uniform depth at which it deposites the seed. When a field is sown broadcast by hand and afterwards " harrowed in," some portions of it may be buried from eight to ten inches while others are not cov ered at all, and are of course wasted. This is obviated by the use of the drill. There is however, room for improvement in the I)ri!! as commonly constructed. The spouts which conduct the seed to the ground are generally arranged at a distance of from five to six inch es apart, and the grain is tnus deposited in rows, instead of being spread over the whole surface of the ground. If double the number of spouts, of smaller size, were used, it would certainly be an improvement. It may not be generally known that in England, where drill culture originated and is now most practised, it is not unusual to hoc wheat. Wiiere this course is pursued, the space between the rows is not objectionable, but we may never jverfiaps s?e the day when it will pay to hoc wheat iu the United States. In selecting seed corn, ears should be prefer red which ripen earliest, and grow upon the most prolific stalks. It is bu'. little trouble for the farmer the pass through his corn field just before " busking time " and select what he may need for next spring's planting. By pur suing this course for several years, it will be found that the amount of the crop is consider ably increased and the period of ripening ac celerated. IIOGS should lie put up for fattening asearlv as jwssible, as they gain inorc from the same amount of food in warm, or moderate, than in cold weather. The yards and pens should be liberally supplied with litter, weeds pulled up before the seeds are ripe, and other matter which may be worked up into manure. It will help to pay the expense of making pork. IF farmers would sow their wheat earlier than is generally done,and upon deeply plowed, finely pulverized and well manured ground, there would be less complaint of winter-killing aud of the ravages of the field weevil or midge. So.vr Suns FOR CURRAXT RUSHES.— A corres pondent of the Indiana Farmer says : " 1 have found the cultivation of Currants to be j very profitable. By care I greatly increased I tbo size of the bushes, and the quantity and quality of the Iruit. My bushes are now about eight feet in height, and are remarkably thrifty. The cause of this large growth 1 at tribute to the fact that I have been in the habit of pouring soap suds and chamber lie around their roots during the summer season 1 am satisfied from my own exprieiice mid tlia' of some of my neighbors, that this treatment will produce the most astonishing effect on the growth and product of the bushes." fey The virtue of prosperity is tempera ice f the virtue of adversity is fortnudj. ffliscellancons TOWANDA HARDWARE CUTLERY IKON AND STOVE STORK. „ Wholesale and Retail Dealer p- "3C -fi ~J ''jjl in Hardware arid Steves.
