FLOWING CRANBERRIES.
! The qmestiori Is frequently asked, if flowing
the Cranberry la beneficial in any other way
than to guard against frost. In my experience,
I ami satisfied .this plant ia, benefited in four
ways by overflowing; / .
.' First., To protqct.tlio vibes from severe cold
in winter..: For this purpose they should be
covered with water one foot or more above the
tops.of the. plants.: I have, had my experi
mental plants on upland, (which copld not bo
flooded,) cut down to the roots two winters
out of six. They, sprouted oht again, and
pfpdiiced some fruit, bnt not half as much as
usual. ,
■ Secondly.: To guard against-late, frosts in
spring, the plants should be kept well cbverdd
until the . fore part ,of Mayj then gradually
draw off Ihe.-watori leaving.an inch or two
nnder the plants as long as thero Is danger of
frost.; The Cranberry dliooj/j grows on the new
sprout, and I have seen not only the bnds but
the hew Shoots entirely .cut off . by tlio frost
the first day of June. , With this water protec
tion during thq winter, and a partial flow until
ail dangcr of .frosts are over in the, spring, the
vines should uniformly bloom/ and set a full
crop every year, unless the plants are injured
by gathering the crop in the fall. The picking
should, he done by hand, as raking thrifty plants
will so disarrange them that they, cannot yield
a full crop for. one or two years after such
roagliusage. 1
i ■Third',: To kill out grass. Some portions
of my meadow was so over-run with rush and
-other wild grasses three' yews ago, aato pre
sent their producing, fruit/but by flowing and
keeping the water, oh until tlio first of June,
'the grass has been so killed out, that it now
presents little or no obstacle to the growth of
the plants, or the production of fruit, and tlio
■grass will undoubtedly, all disappear in a few
years by the, some treatment. •
:,Fomth. To prevont tho destruction of tlio
•fruit by, the wimm'; There is in this vicinity
on insert similar; to the apple worm, that at.
tacks tho early scttlng fruit 'when it is about
half or two-thirds grown, destroying tho berry
by eating it through. • It lias troubled mo very
littlo.sluce I began to. flow my meadow;.- Rost
year I' observed aomo plants on the edge of
thb upland, just above high'Water mark, that
set'vefy full .6f fruit,but it was nearly all des
troyed by the worm, while' plants that wore
partially flooded, within ono foot of them, were
scarcely attacked at all, and on the main body
.of.my meadow I-.hardly,.saw o worm-eaten
berry.—By E. Baoley, in American Agricul

CULTIVATION OF THE STRAWBERRY—
V THE SECRET OUT.
Mr.' Llongworfli.is the father of,the utrawber
>7 culture as well os.the vine culture. Ho haß
given to the world- the firulta of a remarkable
discovery in the shape of three new seedlings—
the Superior.tbe Prpiiflc, and.the Extra Red j
each of which has an excellence of its own.
This now disco Very was the property of an
ignorant rnarkot woman; who, first In Philadel
phia and next Cincinnati, beat all her neigh
bors in the abundance as woilas the fineness of
her crop. Every spring she would carefully
go over her beds, pull up numbers of her larg
est blossoming plants and throw them oyer the
(ence. The rival-gardeners, emulous of her
success, carefully picked up , these' rejected
plants and set them out in their gardens. Bnt
hot yet had they caught the goose that laid the
golden eggs.’, Her cast aivay did no better than
the old ones, if.as well, still she raised five
times as many berries as any ono else. On
coming to Cincinnati she still distanced all com
petitors—why, no one.could discover.. Al
though her'Bon carelessly dropped a hint in the
hearing of Hr. Longworth, who cuught 'it up
.oiid experimented," until he found ont tho curi
ons fuct that the strawberry is soirtetimes malo,
sometimes female, and sometimes hermaphro-.
dife,having both organs more or loss complete;
—a fact; the judicious nso whereof has brought
the price of strawberries from 40 to 60 cents
down to 4 and 6. cents per quart, and mode
them a staple of the State. It was tho male,
strawberries, .whoso, blossoms are always the
largestj that the'market' woman threw over tho
fenee, keeping just gentlemen ,enough in her.
beds for tlie,ladies. .Too .many riot only take
too inuchroom.'hut as their energies-are no)
exhausted'tri bearing fruit, grow aud spread so
ihst as to'seriously encroach tipon the harems,
so that if not looked to in time, they are likely;
as Mr. I.ongworth nays, "to kick all the women
out of bod?’. Hence it is that many people
find, to their great surprise, that they have
fewer and fewer strawberries, though tho bios,
soms are‘larger and larger every, spring. On
the other hand the females can do nothing with;
.out intercourse with the other sex, of course;
Harvey’s seedling, so long the favorite straw;
-berry of the East, is a pure female, and hears
'only when it has compauions In tho bod, as it
is alihost sure to have few or none. „ TlieErig
llsh strawberries lire said to be always herma
phrodite, which renders it difficult for John
Brill ;to believe'that ,there are pure males and
females. . Not,tho .least curious thing is the
way in which the male impregnates the female,
lie does it by proxy, Woney-bees and other in
sects playing, the go-between. They carry the
dust on their feet as they fly from flower to
flower, .This fact has been established, I be
lieve, beyond cavil, by a series of eXperimcflls,
such, as covering, some of the female plants
with gauze, when they are sure to bo barren,
but begin 'to do' their duty tlio moment tho
gaure is removed: There is,'therefore, no
need to place the male'plants In the same bed
with tho females, and in practice each is usu
ally placed by itself from a foot or a yard apart
ftoin.ittf conjugal companions. Of tho threo
-varieties just, mentioned as Mr. Longworth’s
seedlings, now in general criltivation hero, the
Superior.' and Extra Red are female; and tlio
Prolific {s hermaphrodite.
i BARR-,YARD, SCItAPISOS.
1 “Yankee;” a Maine' correspondent of. tho
American .Agriculturist, writes that two years
ago, while remodelling a ham-yard, to so ar
range it hi a basin form that water would not
tuh away from it carrying Off the rich manure,
ho had a'quantity of the bed of tho old yard
to remove.' This lie carted lo an old grass
iiold snd'jq>read it on tho surface, at the rate of
IS,loads to the acre. Tho result was that last
year tlifc’gOod quality and tho quantity of hay
yyaa ’ increased SO per cent., and this year the
effect. Of the top-dressing is quite as groat as
last year.' \ ; -
-This is doubtiesssov sllany economical fann
ers’ practice'carting hundreds of loads of earth
into their'‘yards every autumn; whero it 'be
comes saturated with tap rich manure liquids,
arid it is then spread out upon grass lands, and
ujiplied to other crops., This plan will, pay,
generally, when .niimure;is required. Tile li
quid* from the miinnro yards usually contain
the richest portion of tho fertilizing matters,
and more than one half of all this,mat mini in'
the country is entirely lost. - <’ : .«■!
