 ble fri»l. followed by cold north and east winds. 

 Bank* of Know were to be seen in shady places a 

 week afterwards. For three days past, (now May 

 3d,) we bate been favored with warm, growing 

 weather. The peas, lettuce and other early vege- 

 tables are making a rapid growth ; the apricots in 

 warm situations are in flower, the cherry blooms 

 are jnat bunting their casements, and the apple 

 trees are foul becoming spangled with green. 



Id the flower garden, wo are about taking our 

 farewell of the Orocwu. On tbe 18th of March we 

 picked the first crocus this season, (the Cloth of 

 rjol6\)%od to-day the Late Yellow ond Cloth of 

 SiUtr arc in flower. So these flowers, which arc 

 generally considered so short-tired, hare cheered 

 .j- f-.r f..rti fiv« days, or nearly a quarter of the 

 season of flowers.

By the 



Is* Englsnd mnch is being done to popularin 

 gardening by the introduction of such cheap ap 

 pliances as are within the reach of the masses, art 

 easily managed, and that afford a good deal of 

 amusement if not much profit, Tbe last thing of 

 tbe kind we notice is called The Curat* i Vinery, a 

 glass frame, hardly worthy to be called a vinery. 

 Why this name we cannot say, unless it is that 

 curattt are generally acknowledged to be a poor 

 class, and can afford no more costly buildings. In 

 no country that we koow of are glass frames more 

 useful than in our own. Our springs are so un- 

 certain, so changeable, that a glass covering of any 

 kind, be it only a simple box or hand glass, is a 

 great advantage in forwarding melons and other 

 lender plants, that require a long season to bring 

 tbem to maturity, or that it is desirable to have 

 fruit early. Then, for lettuce, radishes, Ac., a 

 frame, such as this CuratS* Vinery, is very 

 desirable. But, to tbe description of this house, 

 which is from a little book by Mr. Rivers. 



The annexed figure will convey a correct idea 

 its shape and make. To form a vinery of this 

 description, some dry place in the garden must be 

 selected; if not naturally so, it must be well drain- 

 ed. A dry gravelly or sandy border, gently slop- 

 i tbe south or south-west, will be found a 

 favorable site ; a flat surface wilJ,bowercr,do well 

 if fully exposed to the sun. 



When the site is determined on, a trench should 

 be dug, two feet wide on the surface and fiftceu 

 inches deep, sloping on each side to the bottom, 

 which should be six inches wide; the bottom 



the sides lined with the slates called Duchesses, 

 also placed lengthwise. 



" On each side of this trench, on the surface of 

 the soil, a row of bricks must be placed two inches 

 apart, end to end, leaving spaces between each 

 bnck two inches wide — these are for ventilation. 

 On these two rows of bricks the roof is to be placed, 

 which would be a ridge of tbe following dimensions : 

 2 feet f> inches wide at bottom, and 15 inches deep 

 from the centre to the apex. It should be made in 

 lengths of 7 feet, two of which, placed end to end, 

 form one vinery 14 feet long. Each length should 

 be glased with four pieces of glass; and as each 

 sloping side of the ridge is £0 inches deep, four 

 pieces pf glass, about 20 inches square, for each 

 side will be required. The two outer ends must be 

 closed with bourds; at one end a notch should be 



cut in the board, to admit the stem of the vine 

 which should be planted outside, so that its stem 

 bTon* level With the sulfate of the foil outside 

 the soil tbe vine is planted in should be well stir- 

 red, two feet deep, over a space six feet square, and 

 enriched with rotten manure, and what are called 

 one-inch bones, or 'bone dust.' Tbe vine, when 

 planted, should be introduced and suffered to grow, 



Pruning on the spur system is the only method to 

 bo followed. To support tbe vine in the centre 

 pieces of slight iron rod should bo placed across 

 the furrow, two feet apart, resting on the surface 

 outside; to these the stem of tbo vine should be 

 fastened, bo as to be under the center of tbe roof. 

 Tbe bunches of grapes will thus hang in the center 

 of the furrow, and, owing to the radiation of heat 

 from the slates and tiles, tbey will ripen well. I 

 need scarcely mention that in pruniug, cither in 

 winter or summer, the two lengths of ridge form- 

 ing the roof must be takeu off, nnd replaced when 

 the operation is finished. 



" There are several garden purposes to which 

 these simple structures may be applied. I fill my 

 trench bulf full of rich mold early in November, 

 and plant in it Endive and Cabbage Lettuces for 

 winter and early spring Salads. In gardens where 

 these glazed roofs are not wanted lor vines, they 

 will be found most useful for these and other plants. 

 Tbey may be placed on any warm border on the sur- 

 face of the soil, and eorly Peas, French Beans, and 

 many other early vegetables requiring protection 

 from spring frosts, be grown under them with ad- 

 they should be placed on 

 bricks, with spaces between them."

 The editor of the London Gardiner* t'hron-

 how many purposes may such a little seven-foot 

 span be applied when the owner is tired of his vine 

 xperiment. Mr, Ri veits mentions some ; but there 

 re many more. Bringing forward a raw of Straw- 

 berries, for instance, or a line of Asparagus, or 

 spring Onions, or Radishes, or sheltering small mat-

 roof, taken off its vino trench, will be found 

 very far better than handglasses or cloches, or 

 such devices. For oursetHM, we have already set

 make a good pie if enough good things ore put 

 with it to make it good, but of itself it is destitute 

 of flavor, nnd its only merit, in ouropinion, is that 

 it has no ladtatU, being very much like citron, or

EFFECTS OF A SOUTHERN EXPOSURE. 



Mr^ii. I'jis :— Noticing in the Rural of April 

 9th a recommendation from S. N. Holmes to plant 

 grape vines on the south side of n house, I would 

 BSJ that my experience has heeu unfavorable. 

 About tbe spring of 1850 I set a plant of the 

 Catawba and one of the Isabella on the south side 

 of my house, building for each a trellis, giving 

 the best of opportunities, both as regards planting 

 and cultivation, but thus far with intolerable re- 

 sults—a few pounds of fruit in ono season only. 

 I have no difficulty in producing arampautgrowth 

 of vines, with leaves, in some instances, ten aud 

 twelve inches in diameter, but the difficulty is, tiny 

 incariably icinUr-kill dose to the ground. The 

 young wood starts up strong and vigorous each 

 spring, continues growing till late in the fall, 

 ''■' ■■" parishoi in tho winter. These results may 

 be confined to my own experience, but I had de- 

 termined to remove my vines this Bpring to less 

 sheltered pusiiions, hoping thereby to check their 

 Wlh, mid enable them more fully to 

 mature their growth. Is there any remedy forthe 

 eril comploincd of? Q .V Rbihoxdi. 



Commas, gbla. Co., Mich., 1859. 



RtUARK-i. — A southern exposure is the verv 

 wont that could be selected for any viue in a cli- 

 mate where it is liable to bo winter-killed. It..*

8ETTINO HEDGE PLANTS. 



When your ground has been well, deeply and 

 thoroughly mellowed, strike two straight parallel 

 shallow furrows one foot apart, with the dirl thrown 

 right and left from the furrows, where you wish 

 your hedge to stand. Then your plants should be 

 set in the furrows so as to make two straight par- 

 allel lines one foot apart with the plauts from ten to 

 twelve inches distant in the rows, set in such man- 

 ner Hint the plant in one row shall sljud opposite 

 the space in tho other row— thus: 



********* 

 Then, again, set the plants at an angle of forty- 

 five degrees, or leaning over half way from a per- 

 pendiculartowards the earth in the direction of the 



another, but the ipeotaole of 



ng out poke root aud skunk's cabbage was to 

 much for him, and as he swung alone 'he grav< 

 walk I could hear him say. ' By golly, if that don' 

 beat all,' and then he made the air ring with hi

and these should cousist of the Duchesse D'An- 



gouleine, Louise Bonne de Jersey, Beurre Dial, 



BarUett, EasUr Ueurn-,aod the Vicar of Winkfield. 



I would grow the Seckel on its own roots, and in 



ome localities I would set the Virgalieu. Our 



lurserymen are growing too many varieties for 



-rcharding purposes. The above varieties have all 



done well, and the fruit waa not blasted lost year, 



when other kinds were cut off. I hod some luO 



kinds that I have fruited. In planting set tbe 



quince entirely bcl<>« the *urfuee. so that the peai 



have heard those harmless birds cry for food, he 

 would have been sorry for his cruel deed and I 

 hope Mould never repeat un act so wicked. They 

 were blue birds. I lingered at the nest aud llio't 

 bow many, many miles the wings of that mother- 

 bird had borne her from her sunny winter home to 

 the pleasant grove wheie, perhaps, she had before 

 built her nest and reined her young — how she 

 was the first, bird ol spring — ond my heart was 

 sad at her cruel fate. Could that boy but realize 

 Ihul lit who gave thai bird such beautiful plumage 

 and such sweet notes of melody, and taught her to 

 fly tnvay to the sunny youth as winter draws on, 

 ond then to return when (he cold frosts are past — 

 that, lie sim her when she fell, he would weep at 

 his wanton uud wicked deed. It is sad, indeed, 

 that there are any who, for amusement, will molest 

 or destroy tbe nests or sileuce the soft aud joyous 

 notes of our little birds. 



In many countries birds are treated very kindly 

 and are never killed for sport. Several American 

 officers, while in Japan, started oil across the fields 

 and commenced shooliug the birds. The Japanese 



ond at ibeir earnest request Commodore I'eiuiv 

 put a stop to it. The act of shooting a few birds 

 hud such an effect upon llie Japanese, that in their 

 treaty between the two countries they made a c 

 dition that the birds should be protected. 



There is perhops, no country where the bi 

 arc so wonlonly destroyed us with us. Almost 

 ever)' boy seems to tlunk himself licensed 

 stroy us many as be pleases, and they loo often go
