Another Good Wine and Cider Midi..— The Fam¬ 
ily WiDe and Cider Mill, manufactured by Hutchin¬ 
son & Beother of Anburn, is believed to be worthy 
the great popularity it haa attained. We have heard 
it spoken of very highly by those who know whereof 
they affirm, as they have nsed the machine. Fruit

EOURTH OF JULY, 1865. 
The approaching anniversasy of our National In¬ 
dependence is deemed by the Citizen of Rochester, a 
most fitting occasion for a manifestation, not only of 
their devotion to the glorious Union formed and 
established In 1778, but of grateful remembrance and 
appreciation of those brave patriots, dead and living, 
who have so nobly vanquished and destroyed the late 
rebellion—truly an occasion of public congratulation 
and joy to every lover or his Country. 
For this purpoee the Common Council of the City of 
Rochester has made a liberal appropriation, and no 
efforts will be spared by the several Committees hav¬ 
ing charge of the Arrangements, to make the contem¬ 
plated demonstration acceptable and gratifying to all 
who shall participate In, or witness It; bnt to secure 
this fully, the co-operation of the People in the several 
Towns throughout the County, as also those in adjoin¬ 
ing Counties, Is not only desirable but urgently 
solicited, particularly where no local arrangements 
are mad* for the celebration of the Day. 
The prominent features of the ceremonies to be 
observed will he the usual morning, noon and evening 
salutes; a Fire Department display at sunrise; a Pro¬ 
cession at 10 o’clock A. M., composed of the Military, 
including all returned Volunteers, Fire Department, 
Civic, Religious, and Benevolent Societies, and other 
organizations; an Oration, with the accompanying 
exercises, at Washington Square; and, not the least 
attractive, a grand display of Flee Works in the even¬ 
ing, on east bank of the River, above Court Street 
Bridge, intended to be an exhibition far superior to 
any previously witnessed in Western New York. 
All organizations. Military, Civic, Retigious, Benev¬ 
olent, etc., in the City, or in its vicinity, and all re¬ 
turned soldiers now in the service or who have been, 
are respectfully Invited to be present and participate 
in the procession and other ceremonies, and all such 
as shall accept are requested to notify the Chief Mar¬ 
shal on or before Saturday, the 2d day of Jnly, with 
the name of tho person having the immediate com¬ 
mand, In order that thelrplaces in the proceesion may 
be assigned in the printed Programme of the Day. 
Gen. John William has accepted the position of 
Chief Marshal, and will he assisted by Brevet Brig. 
Gen. Powers, Col. Grantbtxn, Lieut. Col. Pierce, 
Major Htland, and others. 
The undersigned earnestly request ail organizations 
in the City or elsewhere, to unite in thi3 effort to give 
I character and effect to the ceremonies, and make the 
celebration worthy of the occasion, and of Western 
New York. 
A circular will be sent to all known organized 
bodies, and ehonld any be omitted, it will be through 
I inadvertency, which will be promptly corrected, with 
the thanks of the Committee to any person who will 
call their attention to such omission.

FRUIT GROWERS’ SOCIETY OF WESTERN 
NEW YORK, 
The Summer Meeting of the Fruit Growers’ 
Society of Western New York was held in this 
city od Wednesday, the 21st day of June. The 
attendance was nnusually large, embracing seve¬ 
ral gentlemen from Eastern New York and other 
States. Among them were G’hab. Downing of 
Newburgh, who so often honors this Society by 
bis presence and ever welcome counsels. Friend 
Thomab of Union Springs, very properly intro¬ 
duced a resolution thanking Mr. Downing for 
the interest he had ever shown in the prosperity 
of this Society. It was heartily and unani¬ 
mously adopted. 
Dr. Thimble of Newark, New Jersey, was 
also present, and gave some valuable informa¬ 
tion on insects injurious to fruit, for which a 
vote of thanks was adopted. 
The exhibition of strawberries was large and 
good, embracing most of the popular sorts, and 
many new varieties not generally disseminated. 
The discussion was interesting and profitable. 
We will give a report of proceedings next week. 
Colored Fruit Plates, &c.—See the advertise¬ 
ment of D. M. Dewey, offering colored plates of seven 
hundred varieties of Traits, flowers etc., and also large 
colored fruit pieces, suitable for parlors, dining rooms 
and nurserymen’s offices. Mr. D. has a One collection.

tisement soliciting information for this work shonld 
be heeded by nurserymen, fruit growers, etc. We 
think such a work will prove very interesting and 
valuable to thousands. 
DOMESTIC ECONOMY, 
Eds. Rural New-Yorker:—W e look over 
the column on u Domestic Economy,” and find 
some recipes with plain directions, very accept¬ 
able. But sometimes I think the cooks or 
writers, are very extravagant. The recipes 
would he more acceptable to your patrons If the 
articles named were used with more economy, 
and within the means of most housekeepers. 
Some of the recipes are very indefinite, and 
would not aid a young housekeeper, who lives a 
long way from neighbors. I will here quote 
one, among the many; 1 
“ I will send you my recipe for a lemon pie. 
I think it an excellent one:—Take two lemons; 
two cups sugar; one cup of water; three eggs, 
and one tablespoonful of flour.” Then what? 
Perhaps shake all of the ingredients well to¬ 
gether? 8. w. 3. 
THE JAPAN PINKS. 
All our readers know the old Chinese Pinks 
arc a very pretty class of flowers, showy and 
bright, blossoming the first season and continu¬ 
ing in perfection for one or two seasons after¬ 
wards. They are always desirable for their 
bright colors, delicate markings and free flower- 
ering, Borne years since a new and very supe¬ 
rior addition was made to this family, said to be 
from Japan. They were disseminated in Europe, 
if we mistake not, by Hbddewig, a celebrated 
florist, and were called Dianthus Heddcwigii. 
They were single, of the most brilliant colors 
imaginable and superbly mottled and striped, 
and of extraordinary Eize, often under good 
culture being four inches in diameter. From 
this beginning in the hands of skillful florists 
sprang up a new family, called Japan Pnks, 
First was Lascitnatus, of taller growth than 
Htddexeigii, with flowers very large and deeply 
toothed, then Lascimatus double, a figure of 
which is shown in the engraving. Double va¬ 
rieties of Jleddewigii were also produced, by 
hybridization with tho Chinese varieties. 
They are a most useful family, and no one 
planting will have cause to regret the expendi¬ 
ture. Seed sown in the spring will not produce 
flowers until about the middle of July, or later, 
hut the second season they commence blooming 
about the middle of Jane and continue well 
through the summer. We have now nothing in 
the garden superior for a brilliant show to the 
Japan Pinks. 
HOW TO PICK STRAWBERRIES, 
JAPAN PINK, 
It has often occurred to ns that the usual 
method of picking and sending strawberries to 
the table is by no means the best that could be 
devised. In taking off the stems and calyx, the 
berries are much bruised, and their appearance 
by no means Improved. In the case of small 
berries there may be some excuse lor removing 
the calyx, but all large berries should be placed 
on the table with the calyx and a portion of the 
stem. They should be eaten one at a time, and 
each person allowed to apply sugar and cream or 
not, to suit his taste. We hope to see the day 
when strawberries will be grown with such a 
happy combination of flavor and sweetness, that 
no auxiliary in the form of sugar will be needed 
to make them palatable; sugar, indeed, smothers 
and destroys the natural flavor of the fruit. We 
already have berries sufficiently large to fill any 
nitnth of decent dimensions. In regrrd to mar¬ 
keting, there can be little doubt that berries 
with the calyx on will sell more readily than 
others; they can certainly be sent to market in 
bette r con dition.— Horticulturist. 
and with the hops and tobacco; and why wont 
it with shade trees ? ” And so he left his hand¬ 
some maples, with their roots enveloped in the 
powerful manure, and the result was as might 
have been expected. A few leaves put forth in 
May, but in June they turned yellow and 
dropped off one by one, and to-day the trees 
are dead. The lesson is a plain one; keep away 
manure from newly planted trees. Give the 
roots finely pulverized surface soil, as can be 
found, and tbe trees will doubtless thrive. If 
the soil needs bettering afterward, apply manure 
to tbe surface in the Fall, and work it in the 
next Spring, its effects will soon be visible.—

FRUIT GROWING IN ILLINOIS, 
The Prairie Farmer, in an account of a late 
visit to the fruit regions of “Egypt,” as the 
southern part of that State is often called, speaks 
of whole farms that are devoted to fruit-growing. 
NearCobden, J. S. and 8. S. Lawyer have 20,- 
000 peach trees, 7,000 apple trees, 500 grape 
vines, and some pears, besides strawberries, 
gooseberries, and other small fruits. They have 
also au experimental orchard of 200 varieties of 
fruits, and have this season received about 1,000 
varieties from Charles Downing, for the pur¬ 
pose of comparing and studying the hardiness, 
yield, habits, &c. 
The “ fladley Orchard,” at Makonda, from 
which $12,000 worth of peaches were sent the 
first year of fruiting, paying three times the 
whole outlay for land, trees, culture, and all ex¬ 
penses, was visited, as were many others with 
from one to three thousand pear, six to seven¬ 
teen thousand peach, two to ten thousand 
apple trees, with vineyards of ten to thirty 
thousand vines, and patches of strawberries, 
tfcc., &e., to correspond. The writer complains 
of the exorbitant charges of express companies, 
and of the rough manner in which their agents 
handle the packages of fruit. Cases of berries, 
he says, are turned upside down, and even end 
over end, much to their injury. 
Employ the Wounded Soldiers, 
All persons in Rochester or its vicinity who are 
disposed to employ Wounded Soldiers, are requested 
to cal’, at this Office, where a list of such is kept — de¬ 
scriptive of name, age, nativity, former occupation, in 
what manner disabled, reference, It is especially 
important that the returned wonnded men of our own 
gallant regiments have an opportunity to earn what 
ihey can toward the support of themselves and their 
familtes, and it is hoped our city business men, and 
farmers, horticulturists, etc., in the surrounding 
country, will give them employment so far as is con¬ 
sistent. D. D. T. MOORE, Mayor.

HORTICULTURE AND PATRIOTISM 
What Blights tux Pear Trees?—A* young and 
thrifty pear tree standing in my garden commenced 
bearing 'ast year, producing about a d« xi-n well deve’ 
oped years. "This year it -.v.is shrouded wlih blosson a 
and gave promise of an ample yield of fruit. All pro¬ 
gressed favorably till the occurrence ©f the late pro¬ 
tracted thunder storm. Immediately succeeding this, 
or rather two or tlirve dn>* alter, the leave* on many 
branches turned black. Others followed till the tree 
is now bolt draped in what may be termed dingy 
mourning. Tue partially developed fruit is wilting rip, 
and the tree from which so much was anticipated may 
be considered doomed or dead. What bis produced 
this sudden change from health and vigor to rapidly 
advancing decay ? Was it tho electricity with which 
the atmosphere was so heavily charged at the time oi 
the late severe and protracted thunder storm? The 
suddenness of the change would seem to indicate that 
as the cause.— h. b. 
This pear blight, distinguished particularly as “ ilre 
blight," has been under Investigation aud discussion 
among fruit grow ers during the last 25 years. From 
time to time various theories have been announced, 
but uU in turn have been rejected; and no one to-day 
is bold enough to do more than suggest, as uttr corres¬ 
pondent docs, electricity, Insects, fungi, Ac., &c. 
This disease occurs to some extent over a great por¬ 
tion of the United States, and we hope and believe 
that with so many scientific and practical men now 
interested, it will not long remain a mystery. 
It may be well enough to add that the duty of every 
cultivator of the pear la to examine his trees daily 
during the growing season, aud when a limb or any 
part of a tree is struck with this blight, amputate at 
Once to the sound wood, aud if a tree ia blighted be¬ 
yond recovery, dig up and burn,— h. 
The following interesting and truthful remarks 
are from the Gardeners’ Monthly for June; our 
experience with tbe Horticulturist of the South 
fully agrees with that of friend Meehan. We 
know of but one rabid Secessionist among the 
promineut Horticulturists of the Soul hern 
States, and he is more to be pitied tliau blamed. 
There are, we know, no more zealous lovers of 
their country and their fellow man than the hor¬ 
ticultural community; but they are not given to 
any ostentatious display of their feelings or 
opinions, nor is their zeal untempered with dis¬ 
cretion. 
We truly believe, that for genuine charity to 
opposite opinions, no class excels the horticul¬ 
turist. Though ourselves long an advocate of 
human freedom and human rights in their most 
liberal sense, wc have never obtruded our views 
on our readers out of place iu this journal; but 
in our priviato letters to our Southern corre¬ 
spondents, before the rebellion, we never hesi¬ 
tated to give them our free opinions when the 
occasion called for them; and they were invaria¬ 
bly received with Lhe courtesy and respect 
we expected from the fraternal spirit of horti¬ 
culture. Tho many hours we have employed 
in the earnest endeavor to ward off, by calm 
reasoning, the bitter cup we have had to taste 
tho past four years, we now look back upon as 
amongst the best spent days of our life. It 
taught us that the great Horticultural body of 
the South was far in advance of other portions 
of tho community. The great majority of them 
we found earnest lovers of the Union, audoppoa- 
ers of a course they mostly believed would be 
but a fruitless civil war. Our correspondence 
with the South was very extensive; but we are 
proud to say that we knew of but one of any 
eminence who took any high part In leading ftny 
State out of the Union ; and we have with some 
interest watched the course of events iu con¬ 
nection with our former friends there; bnt we 
have not heard of an instance of one of any 
consequence who willingly entered the Confed¬ 
erate ranks. 
We refer to these matters here, because we 
think it gives horticulture a new claim on the 
country. The nation—events prove- has to be 
forever one, and strongly united. Union and 
STRAWBERRY SHORT CAKE 
GOOD READING VERY CHEAP 
This is an exceedingly delicious dish, altho’ a 
little like painting the lily; for the strawberry is 
too luscious in itself to require any of the aids of 
cookery. We give it, not for tbe benefit of onr 
dyspeptic readers —for we warn them against it 
— but for those who can eat hot cakes for tea, 
and eaunot dispense with strawberries while 
they are in season. The cake should be made 
like soda biscuit, rather richer, but very light, 
baked in a round tin about the size of a dinner 
plate. Immediately upon taking it out of the 
oven split it in three parts, and spread them with 
butter very thinly. Have your strawberries 
prepared by covering them with sugar. Spread 
a thick layer of these upon one of the slices of 
the cake, and pour over them the richest cream 
that you can procure; then add another layer of 
the &hort cake and another of strawberries, as 
before. Cover the whole with the remaining 
slice of the cake, add some cream and powdered 
sugar, and you have a dish that would tickle the 
palate of an epicure.— Exchange.

SALT FOR THE GARDEN 
Latteri.t some practical men have recom¬ 
mended the application of salt to gardens, 
either in autumn after the crops have been 
removed, or in tbe spring before or after dig¬ 
ging for crops; and we have no doubt from our 
own limited experience in its use, that it will 
effect all that is claimed for it. For years it bus 
been established that salt hay from tho marshes 
overflowed by sea water, was fur to be preferred 
as a mulch to any other substance. The appli¬ 
cation of urine, also, to fruit trees, especially 
the plum, where it has been most generally 
used, Is well known to have a very beneficial 
effect. The fruit growers of New England aud 
New York, claim for salt many advantages by 
sowing it under pear trees. They say it gives 
the blush to this fruit. It will have the same 
effect in a garden, also, of destroying noxious 
insects which have their winter habitations in 
the ground. From six to eight bushels to the 
acre can be applied with safety. Auy coarse, 
refuse salt will do. It should not be burned— 
the rains will dissolve it and carry it down. 
Farmers frequently have salt from their meat 
tubs and mackerel barrels, which could be used 
iu this way, after being thoroughly drained and 
dried, and applied at tho rate of about four 
bushels to the acre. 
Salt is not a lasting application. Its direct 
influence rarely extends beyond a year, though 
the good it effects may continue for many 
years. — Ocrmantown Telegraph.

Messrs. DOW & FOWLER, 
Gents Your ‘‘Yankee lower” has come 
safely to hand, and has been used parts of two days in 
a meadow where its points have been thoroughly test¬ 
ed. We started It in an old meadow with a very thick 
bottom, wet from a slight rain, and thick with old 
grass not fed off last fall. In this kind of grass we 
have always had difficulty, making very hard work for 
the team, a good deal of backing and cleaning knives 
to get up motion, and then fast driving to keep it up. 
Your Machine did the work with great case for the 
team, aud although the grass was damp or rather wet, 
cut if clean, without clogging. To-day we have tried 
it iu some very heavy grass of the same kind, and with 
equally satisfactory results. I am free to say, ice hare 
near had a Mower which has given such compete satis¬ 
faction. It comes nearer to my ideal of a simple 
Mower, than any I have yet used. It is so strongly 
made , so easily got at to oil and keep in order , so effect¬ 
ive and simple, that It combine'.' more excellencies 
than any which I have yet had upon the farm. You 
may write the " Yankbe” a success.

MANURING NEWLY SET TREES, 
We this spring saw a neighbor finishing off 
the planting of a row of handsome maples in 
front of his dwelling, and complimented him on 
his taste and public spirit, and expressed the 
hope that his trees would live aud flourish. 
“ They ought to grow,” said be, “ for I have put 
a half wheel-barrow load of hog manure iuto 
each hole.” “Hava you?" wo responded, 
“then the trees will die, and you may as well 
pull them up now and throw them on the brush 
heap.” But he could not bo convinced of his
