    Transplanting Cabbages.
Often when cabbage plants are removed
from the beds where they were raised to the
garden square, a large portion die, and in a
few days the gardener must re-set the square
with other plants, and this has occurred so
frequently that most persons have concluded
that ft is inevitable. Many will doubt when
we tell them that it is wholly their fault that
every plant does not live. Yet such is the
fa|;t. It results from two errors which are
easily avoided. One is that in drawing the
plants the roots are broken, and the other
from keeping out of the ground too long, un
til it becomes more or less dry., The garden
er instead of having the land prepared fully
before he lakes bp the plant and going thro’
the whole process of drawing and planting in
B few minutes, offen draws the plants, then
lays off the ground, and then drops every
plant where it is to be put, before he begins
to sol the first one, and by the time he gets
, to the last they are hopelessly injured. Some
times, we have seen such instances, the plants
are lying thus on the ground exposed to the
heat of the sun for hours, before they are
planted. If they grew afterwards it would
be very wonderful.
The pla.n which we have pursued for many
years seems lo us to be far more reasonable,
- and certainly is much more successful than
that usually followed in this xegion. VVe
prepare the land thoroughly first of all, and
then lay it off before a plant is drawn from
the bed. Some hours before the plants are
drawn, water is applied freely to the beds in
which [he plants are growing to solten the
earth, so that the plants can betaken without
breaking ihe roots. The plants are then care-,
fully drawn, and taken at once to the spots
where they are to be planted. - There mean
time, a mud puddle has been made, by scrap
ing away the soil, and pouring down water,
and mixing soil therewith until a tolerably
thick mud has been formed into which the
root of each plant is immersed. A consider
able portion of mud will adhere to the root,
and then as quickly as possible they are
planted. The result of this mode of plant
ing is, that a plant rarely ever fails to grow
off at once and flourish vigorously, and un
less the worms or insects attack the plants,
we never jtave occasion to re-set cabbage
plants. —Southern Planter.
Hens and Eggs. — For several years pas!
I have spent a few weeks of Ihfe lalter pari of
August, on Hie Kennebec river, in Maine.—
The lady with whom I have stopped is a high
ly accomplished and intelligent housewife. —
She supports a hennery, and from her I de
rived my information in this mailer. She
told me that for many years she had been in
the habit of administering to her hen«,'wiih
their common food, at the rate of a teaspoon
ful of cayenne pepper each alternate day, to
a dozen of her fowls. Last season when I
was with her, each morning she brought in
from twelve to fourteen eggs, having but six
teen hens in all. She again and again ex
perimented in the matter by omitting to feed
with the cayenne fora wo or three days. The
consequence invariably was, that her pro
duced eggs fell off* to five or six per day.-
The same effect of using the cayenne is pro
duced in winter as well as in summer. — Tran
script,
I-Tow to Select Flour. —1. Look at its
color; if il is white, with a sljghtly yellow,
ish or straw colored tint, it is a good sign.
If il is very white, with a bluish cast or black
specks in it, lire flour is not good.' 2. Exam
ine its adhesiceness: wet and knead a little
of it between the fingers ; if it works dry
and elastic, it is good ; if il works soft and
Blioky. il is poor. Flour made from spring
wheat, is likely to be sticky. 3. Throw a
little lump of dry flour against a dry, smooth,
perpendicular surface ; if it falls like powder,
it is bad. 4. Squeeze some of the flour in
your hand ; if it retains the shape.given n by
the pressure, (hat too is a good sign. Flour
that will stand all these tests, it is safe to buy.
These modes were given by old flour deal
ers, and we make no apology for printing
them, as they pertain to a matter that con
cerns everybody, namely : the quality of
which is “the staff of life.’’
Currants for Wine Making. —The red
currant (or red Dutch) lot; wine making, gives
n lighter flavor than the white and is consid
ered a better producer. One acre of currant
bushes, set 4 feel apart would in due lime
produce 25 bushels of fruit, and might be
made.to grow 50 bushels, that depending on
and the manner of cultivation.—
Thre gallons may be obtained from a bushel
of good ripe fruit. Make the wine in the
same manner that you would a,barrel of good
sweet cider, with the addition of from 3 to 4
•pounds sugar to the g dlon, fermenting off the
pomace-umil it is entirely clear, afler which
it should be racked off into tight btirfels and
there remain any desirable lime to become
ripe and firm. As to the price of the article
sin market, the deponent saith not. \
To Drive Awav Rats. —Some years
since a correspondent of the Boston Cultiva
tor recommended potash for this purpose.—
The rats troubled him very much, having en
tered through the chamber floor. They ap
peared in great numbers and were very trou
hrlesome, so that lie felt justified in resorting,
to extreme measures to effect their expulsion
from his premises. He pounded up po.tash
nnd strewed it around their holes, and rubbed
some under the boards, and on the sides
where they came through. The next night lie
heard a squealing among them, which he sup
posed was from the caustic nature of the pot
ash that got among.their hair or on their bare
feet. They disappeared, and for a long time
he wrs exempt from any further annoyance.
A Frenchman who was exhibiting some
relics and other curiosities, produced among
other things, a sword, which he assured his
visitors was “De sword dal Balaam had when
he would kill the ass.” A spectator remarked
that Balaam had no sword, but only wished
for one. “Ver well, dis is de one he wished
for.”
An Irish gentleman having purchased-an
alarm clock, an aeqn lintanoe asked him
what he intended to do With it.
“Oh!” said he it’s the most convenient
thing in the world, for I’ve nothing to do but
to pull the siring and wake myself.”
