I 
TRAINING THE TOMATO 
A HINT TO GARDENERS. 
As soon as the plants are large enough, trans¬ 
plant to rich, light soil, one in a hill, and at 
lea6t five feet apart each way. At least once a 
week scoop the earth away from around the plant, 
and pour on a quart or more of soup suds. When 
the plant commences to branch, cut olf the outer 
branches ; this will have a tendency to Increase 
the size of the stock and cause It, to grow bushy. 
After the plants are 16 or 18 inches high they 
should be provided with frames. I make mine 
by splitting standards from pine boards, 5 )4 feet 
long, and sharpen their lower ends. To these 
standards are nailed slats made by sawing 4 feet 
lnth3 into three pieces. The frames arc mude 10 
inches square, nailing the lower slats at, 15 inches 
from the bottom of the standards, the upper ones 
at the top, with others mid way between the two. 
Frames made In this way have been in use five 
years, and with a little repairing will last some 
years longer. When the branches extend beyond 
the slats and over the top of the frame, clip 
them, leaving one leaf above the fruit sterns, and 
continue to do this throughout the season. The 
plant trained thus and showing its ripe and ripen¬ 
ing fruit, forms a beautiful object, und one to¬ 
mato grown in this way is worth a dozen ns usu¬ 
ally cultivated. Last year I had 21 plants, from 
which I gathered an abundance of fruit for table 
use and canning, for a family of five persons, be¬ 
sides distributing from five to six bushels among 
my friends. No one need to be afraid of using 
the knife l’reeiy, as there is no danger that the 
plant will not fruit abundantly ; in my experience 
the difficulty has been to keep it from fruiting too 
much. 
As our houses and gardens are always, more 
or le6s, infested with vermin, it is nevertheless 
satisfactory to know that benzoin, an article 
sufficiently well known as a detergent, is no less 
eUicftcJousaa an agent, in Insecticide. Two drops 
arc sufficient to asphyxiate the most, redoubtable 
pe«t, be it beetle, cockchafer, spider, slug, cater- 
piller, or other creeping things. Even rats and 
mice decamp from anyplace sprinkled with a 
few drops of benzoin. A singular fact con¬ 
nected with this application of benzoin is, that 
the bodies of the insects killed by it become so 
rigid that their wings, legs, etc., will break rath¬ 
er than bend if touched. Next day, however, 
when the benzoin has evaporated, suppleness is 
restored .—Bouton Cultivator. 
EARLY SPRING FLOWERS-NOTES IN THE 
GARDEN. 
A BATCH OF RECIPES 
The Early Tulips are passed; only the Late 
varieties and the Parrots are now in perfection. 
The Late Double varieties are truly magnificent, 
some of them fully os large as the old red Ibeony, 
and when the color is similar easily mistaken for 
that flower. They are of many colors, bright 
yellow, the various shades of red and striped. 
They make a grand bed, and are unsurpassed at 
this season for large bouquets or other floral 
ornaments. 
The Ihrrot Tulip is not a great favorite with 
florists, and yet its gay colors will always make 
it popular. Its habit is straggling, and in wot, 
windy weather it droops badly, having but a 
slender stem, but In a bright day a bed of Parrot 
Tulips will astonish the beholder by its bril¬ 
liancy. There arc several varieties, but the 
prevailing colors are bright yellow, scarlet and 
green, and these colors are usually all found in 
the same flower. BeUe Jaunt is yellow, slightly 
striped with green and scarlet. Large Scarlet has 
only slight markings of green and yellow, the 
prevailing color being scarlet. Rrfceta, deep 
yellow, with broad scarlet stripes, and dashes of 
green. The Parrots seem more disposed to 
sport than other varieties. 
Of the Late Single Tulips, there are so many 
beautiful varieties that descriptions of one-tenth 
of those now in flower would be tedious. They 
have strong, stately flowering stems eighteen 
inches or more in height, w ith large, well formed 
cups. This class i6 prized by florists the world 
over, and they are truly magnificent. They are 
usually divided into three classes — Bkarras, 
Bybloontsami Rosts. Bizarre* have yellow ground, 
edged or striped with any other color. Byblootns 
have white ground, marked with purple or violet 
Boses have white ground, striped with rose, scar¬ 
let crimson, or cherry. We have taken notes of 
a large number of tine varieties, but ouly name 
three or four of each class. Bizarres— Alexan¬ 
der, very large aud perfect cup, deep purple, 
nearly covering the yellow ground, except at 
base of petals. Gloria Mundi, bright yellow, 
fine cup, slightly Btriped with maroon. Trafal¬ 
gar, creamy yellow, edged with scarlet. Flora, 
bright yellow, purplish edges. Byblooms — 
Washington, deep velvety purple, shaded with 
violet, a splendid flower. Queen of Tulips, vio¬ 
let and purple stripes, two-thirds clear white, 
very fine. Ambassador of Holland , very large 
cup, white, edged with purple. Rose — Bose 
Unique, broad stripes of deep rose, large and 
perfect cups. Henry Clay , a very good flower, 
crimson and cherry stripes. Pearl of the Orient, 
one-half pure white, crimson and cherry stripes, 
Aa Mattie wants a recipe for making a lemon 
pie, I will send mine, which I think a tip-top 
one. Take one lemon, pare it, and cut into thin

KILL THE CATERPILLARS, 
We have several communications, says tho 
Boston Journal, urging upon those who own 
trees to devote a little time now to the destruc¬ 
tion of caterpillars’ nests, which are unusually 
numerous this season. Ouc gentleman who has 
no trees of bis own went into his neighbor’s 
garden, and estimates that he killed ten thou¬ 
sand of these mischievous u.sects iu an hour’s 
time, and In so doing probably saved his friend 
his fruit crop next fall. An hour spent now in 
destroying these pests is of more value than ten 
hours will he a few weeks hence, and we hope a 
war of extermination will everywhere be waged 
against them. 
To Make Good Soup.— Take a piece of butter 
about the size of a butternut and heat in a spider 
as hot as possible without scorching; then take 
two quarts of flour, put it into the spider and 
brown it until quite brown. It, will be necessary 
to keep stirring it to prevent it from burning. 
After it is finely browned, stir it into three 
quarts of boiling water in a kettle, transfer it to 
your soup dish and mix with it three quarts of 
new milk; sweeten and salt to suit your taste, 
and it is ready for use. — Mrs. Mary Hall,

THE EVERGREEN PRIVET 
Tub Evergreen Privet, when well grown as a 
shrub, is a most beautiful bush when in bloom, 
and is highly odoriferous; the flowers are great¬ 
ly relished by bees. During a short visit to the 
residence of Mr. Henry E. Sherrad, near Haddon- 
flcld, N. J., last June, I noticed a large and 
handsome Privet shrub in bloom ; every young 
twig was crowned with a cluster of rich and 
waxy whitu blooms; almost tho entire foliage 
was hid by the flowers, and their fragrance was 
perceivable many yards off. From morning till 
night swarms of bees were about the bush, 
both in clear and cloudy weather. Although 
tho lawn was covered with white clover in 
bloom, and the adjoining fields contained the 
red, also in bloom, the bees chose the Privet. 
As the Privet is most generally grow r n in 
hedges, on account of its compact growth and 
beautiful foliage, many persons may never have 
seeu it when in bloom as a shrub. The annual 
or biennial clippings of hedges prevent tneir 
blooming, as the flowers are produced upon the 
ends of the young shoots of the previous year’s 
growth. The Privet flourishes on a great variety 
of soils; but it blooms most freely where the soil 
is not too rich. Very few shrubs have such 
pretty foilage as the Privet, and very tew are 
more deservlug of u place in the pleasure-ground. 
To the above well-merited praise of this beau¬ 
tiful shrub, we may add, thut it will grow and 
do well on dry gravelly banks, where scarcely 
anything else will do.— Gardener’’s Afonthly.

miseration (sensible man!) of or for onr elevation to 
the Chief Magistracy of Rochester I Of course his 
note was private, and we arc aware that he did not 
wish any acknowledgment, butthe fruit was so excel¬

Diamosd Cement.— Soak isinglass in water 
till it is soft, then dissolve it in proof spirits. 
Add to this a little gum ammoniac or galbanum 
and mastic, dissolved in as little alcohol as pos¬ 
sible. Shake well and put in a bottle with a 
good cork. When used it must be liquefied 
by placing the bottle in warm water; apply 
it to the broken edges with a camel - hair 
brush, or in the absence of that, the tip of 
a feather. This cement will resist moisture.—

A NEW USE FOR PETROLEUM 
To Cook Rife Tomatoes.— For a family of 
six or seven members, slice four good sized 
tomatoes in a kettle, pour boiling water over 
them and let them boll from ten to fifteen min¬ 
utes, then season with salt, pepper, butter, and 
a little sweet cream ; then pour them over a slice 
of toasted bread, and you have a dish lit for a 
king to eat, even if they are deserving of better 
food than we are.— A Farmer’s Wife, Fast 
Avon, -V. Y., 1865. 
Varied are the uses to which petroleum can 
be applied. There seems no limit to its useful¬ 
ness. A writer in the Prairio Farmer has found 
by experiment that wdien applied to the young 
plant, it will effectually drive away that detesta¬ 
ble and miserable nuisance, the striped bug. It 
is supposed that tho disagreeable odor of the oil 
causes his departure, without standing upon the 
order of bis going. The application does no 
injury to the plant whatever, and the ouly evil 
effect that need be apprehended is that some 
“oil speculator,” snuffing the grease, would at 
once commence to bore, aud thus destroy a 
good natured farmer’s fine garden iu attempting 
to turn a cucumber patch into “oil territory.” 
The writer referred to describes his experiment 
and success as follows: 
“I took some of the oil aud with a feather 
passed it lightly over and uuder the plauts, suffi¬ 
ciently to diffuse the odor among them; then 
took up a position, at a suitable distance, to 
observe the result, and I soou discovered that 
the operation was a complete success; the bugs 
would light down on the plauts and immediately 
fly off. 1 passed through all my vines twice in 
two days with the feather, giving the hills a 
general odor, and the hugs troubled me no 
more.”

Our Rochester Nurseries arc looking charmingly

but during a visit to them the other day we saw so 
many new beauties, and commendable features, that 
we came to the conclusion that their merits and use¬ 
fulness were far from being realized. May their pro¬

A writer says: —We are often troubled 
with severe coughs, the results of colds of long 
standing, vrhich may turn to consumption or 
premature death. Hard coughs cause sleepless 
nights, by constant irritation in the throat, and 
a strong effort to throw off offensive matter 
from the lungs. The remedy I propose has 
been tried by me, and I often recommend it 
to otters with good results, which is simply to 
take into the stomach before retiring for the 
night, a piece of raw onion, after chewing. 
This esculent, in an uncooked state, is very 
heating, and tends to collect the waters from 
the lungs and throat, causing immediate relief 
to the patient. Sliced onion, iu a raw state, will 
collect poison from the air, and also from the 
human system when taken internally, or exter¬ 
nally applied to the arm-pits. 
JAPAN QUINCE. 
I he I lowering Shrubs are now exhibiting 
their spring splendor. That beautiful and hardy 
plaut, tho Japan Quine,-, is almost out of flower, 
ibid it has been gay for a long time. Everybody 
should plant this beautiful shrub. Its scarlet 
flowers, early in the spring, are truly charming 
enough. If plants were abundaut and cheap 
enough, we would recommend it in preference 
to anything else for an ornamental hedge. The 
I lowering Thorns have always been favorites with 
“ s - TlM >y aro not perfect wreaths of (lowers. 
Ihe double white and pink and scarlet, aud the 
single scarlet and pink, are all good. Tho Pa«o- 
bies are now coming into flower, aud present

We had almost forgottcu our little friends, the

spring, has been very favorable for their full de¬ 
velopment, Au English climate could hardly suit

they form uow shoots and strong, stoeky plants, 
aud flower again abundantly iu the autumn. If

IRON RAILING, 
For inclosing Cemetery Plots, Offices, Dwell 
ings, Public'Squares, Ac. 
We have no great faith iu the efficacy of either 
washiug or scraping trees—but as some persons 
have, a few words on tho subject may not be use¬ 
less. If washing is determined upon,the best ma¬ 
terial in our knowledge is commou soft soap mixed 
with water until it Is ot the cousisteuoy of cream. 
It may be applied in tho month of July; it will 
have a tendency to destroy the eggs of Insects 
which are then deposited on the bark and about 
the roots of trees. 
This wash will also be found effectual in remov¬ 
ing moss aud other parasitical productions. A 
sufficient amount of potash is contained in the 
soap to accomplish these ends, and yet not 
enough to injure the bark of tho tree, and as It 
is of vegetable origin, it is more congenial to the 
tree tbau lime, and is always to be preferred. 
It does not close the pores of the bark as lime 
wash does, but leaves them unobstructed and 
open to atmospheric influences, and in a state of 
vigorous and perfect health. It has loug been 
used by orchardiats and gardeners, and has never 
been kuowu to injure any fruit tree, when 
made and applied as above directed.—.V. E.
