crowded with work in the BpriDg, get apples, 
peaches, pears, quinces, <fcc., and plant them 
out this fall. Delay not. 
Let no one Bay to himself “I will be dead 
before eating the fruit the trees will bear;” 
for if you aim at the Increase of your property 
you can do nothing to more profit than fruit 
planting. If an orchard of trees juBt coming in¬ 
to bearing at your death ia worth $10 per tree— 
alow estimate—you can calculate how much 
move*you will have to convey in your will by 
having planted a thousand fruit trees. But 
there are few who are under fifty years of age 
who have the right to say that they will not live 
for ten years at least to eat the fruit of their own 
planting.— Cin. Oaz.

THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLE GARDENS, 
The following articles from the Gardener’s 
Monthly for the current month, are so timely, 
and adapted to so wide a range of country, that 
we accord them the post of honor In this De¬ 
partment.. They cannot fail of being read with 
interest and profit by those of our readers 
engaged in the production of Fruits or 
Vegetables: 
FRUIT GARDEN —OCTOBER. 
In planting fruit tree?, the pear, apple and 
cherry invariably do better fall planted, than 
when deferred till spring, north of Philadelphia. 
The peach, plum and apricot ehould not be 
planted till spring, if not done before heavy 
frost. All fruit trees when set out should be 
vigorously shortened in. Trees should not be 
planted deep—no deeper than they grew before 
removal. It is better to draw a mound of soil 
about them for the winter, to be removed early 
in spring; it preserves from frost and throws off 
superabundant moisture. Dwarf pears must be 
set below the quince stock—and in selecting 
these, choose those that are. budded near the 
ground—where a long-legged quince stock has 
to be buried so deep the tree makes but a poor 
growth for some seasons afterwards, and is in 
other respects injured. In severe climates, 
cherries ot' very luxuriant growth are liable to 
be winter killed. To obviate this, the weaker 
growingikinds, as the Duke and Morello, and 
the Mahaleb, are used for stocks to graft them 
on. This checks their vigor and renders them 
hardier. It, however, always keeps them dwarf; 
and superior 6ized fruit is not so probable. 
Where danger of winter-killing exists, these 
strong growing kinds should not have a highly 
manured soil, and where they yet grow very 
vigorous when young, they may be root-pruned, 
as already described. If they can be got through 
the first ten years of their life, till they lose their 
youthful vigor, they will not suffer in severe 
winters afterwards. 
Sometimes fruit tl'CCs are unproductive from 
other causes than poverty of the soil, or neglect 
of the orchardiet. They often grow too luxuri¬ 
antly to bear well. In tills ease root-pruning is 
very effectual, aud is performed by digging a 
circle around the tree, with the circle made 
close to the trunk of the tree. A fifteen year 
old tree, for instance, may be encircled at five 
feet from the trunk. No rule can be laid down 
for this: judgment must be exercised. If cut 
too close, the tree may be stunted for years, aud 
if too far, it will not be effective. The aim 
should be to reduce the roots about one-third. 
Currants, gooseberries, raspberries, strawber¬ 
ries and blackberries, can generally be depended 
on—and near a large city are always a source of 
profit. The three first named like a moist sub¬ 
soil, and a situation not exposed to drying 
winds. The strawberry and blackberry will do 
in a drier soil and warmer situation. The black¬ 
berry has now become an important fruit, but 
should not be planted where its creeping roots 
will bo an objection. There are always “ odd 
corners” where such plants become just the re¬ 
quired thing to till iu with. 
The strawberry, blackberry, aud raspberry 
should bo protected in winter, north of Phila¬ 
delphia ; most kinds arc hardy enough to stand 
without this care, but it is better to employ it 
nevertheless. Strawberries may have leaves or 
straw litter thrown over them, and a little soil 
thrown over to keep the wind from blowing 
them away. Raspberries and blackberries 9 houhl 
have their last season’s bearing shoots taken 
out, the youug canes pruned so that three or 
fonr of the strongest only are left, aud then laid 
down and covered with soil. To do tills with¬ 
out breaking them, dig out a spade full of earth 
ou one side of the hill, aud with the heel press 
the stock over. The inclination will be suffi¬ 
cient to prevent the breakage. 
Lilia eaiuon contains. In mlilitlon to Its former matter, 
with full hStory of the IONA and ISRAELLA, much ad¬ 
ditional concerning these new kinds, showing their de¬ 
portment, durim- the past season, which has been, from 
Its sudden changes to extremes of temperature, the moat 
severely trying to the vine ever experienced. 
The general testimony from every quarter fully sub 
a tan. dates all that the most, earnest Wends of these kinds 
have ever claimed for them in regard to their earllnesa, 
extreme-hardiness, and surpassing quality and beaut}*. 
That they are by a long Interval the best American 
grapes In all essential points, and t lie only perfect grapes, 
according to the best European standard, that arc ntting 
for oar climate for tabic grapes, will be clearly apparent 
to all wbo investigate the subject. 
It will also appear equally clear that the IONA and IS¬ 
RAELI. A are the two kinds to plant In preference to all 
others, both for profit, for market, and for enjoyment for 
the family. Another year will demonstrate their pre¬ 
eminence for wine. 
The following letter from Mr. Cuss. E owning will be 
gladly read by all interested in grapes:

Saving Tomato Seeds. — M. B. Pratt gives 
the following as fils metfiod of treating tomato 
seeds:—“Lay the seeds and pulp upon a dry 
cloth, spread them with a knife, then lay anoth¬ 
er cloth over, and roll all up tight, then scrape 
off the seeds Into a pan of water and wash, out 
with the hand all the pulp that, is left after roll¬ 
ing, and lay them in the dry cloth for a few 
minutes; place them in a paper, and in the course 
of the day they are clean and dry, and ready for 
sale.” Another subscriber spreads the pulp, 
containing the seeds, thinly upon newspaper, 
without washing, and allows It to dry there. 
The paper is then rolled up, and put away until 
spring. When needed for sowing, the paper is 
cut into strips and planted (seeds, paper and all) 
in the hot bed .—American Agriculturist, 
The Iona Grape.— We have received from Dr. 
Grant, Iona Island, specimens of this grape. Though 
the clusters are not large (the Doctor having pretty 
much exhausted Ms stock by sending to many State 
and Comity exhibitions,) the fruit is large and rich— 
equal In flavor to that of any grape we hare tasted 
this year. TMs piste has greatly augmented our good

PROTECTING VINERY GRAPES,?&c., IN 
WINTER. 
In answer to an inquiry as to the best mode 
of wintering exotic grapes in houses, and peaches 
and nectarines in pots, the Gardners’ Monthly 
for Sept gives the following: — “ The sun shin¬ 
ing on any thing frozen severely, is liable to In¬ 
jure it. Fruits which often blossom freely In 
spring, and astonish their owners by not ‘ settmg 
fruit’ after all, we attribute to Injury to the un¬ 
developed stamens or pistils, while yet In the 
bud by severe weather. The wood and leaf buds 
are injured partially in the samo degree. All the 
protection grape-vines, peaches, etc., require, is 
to be kept from the sun In winter. Vines cau 
be tied up with straw, or laid on the ground and 
covered with corn-stalks, cedar-brush, or aDy 
other materia], lapping gas-tarred paper around 
the lower part of the stems to drive away mice 
or rats. The mo9t successful peach aud necta¬ 
rine grower we know, puts all her pots (for is is 
a lady amateur) in ashed on the northern aide of 
the garden, and piles iu a largo quantity of dry 
leaves about the pots, to keep them from burst¬ 
ing by severe frosts and from drying up. Here 
they stay till spring. Gas tar is also put about 
the mass to drive away the mice. Any barn or 
shed will do. Vineries we think are best shaded 
in summer; but the best material is yet an open

FRUIT GROWING, 
Fruit growing has become one of the great 
interests of the country. In spite of the great 
activity of pomologists, nursereymen, State and 
County lairs and planters themselves, the de¬ 
mand seems to Increase in a far greater ratio 
than the supply. Year; ago fine apples tvere 
plenty at twenty-five cents per bushels, and but 
the other day one of our dealers paid ten dollars 
for a barrel. Six years ago strawberries were 
abundant at five to ten cents per quart, but for 
three years past they have commanded from fif¬ 
teen to thirty eems. Goo$ pears could he had 
ten years since at a dollar per bushel, bat for 
several years they have not teen less than three, 
aud the present seasou, wild a large crop, they 
readily sold for five dollars., It is true that ap¬ 
ples have partly failed the pisent season; but in 
seasous of full fruitage the J pay transportation 
for hundreds of miles and good profits to both 
growers and dealers. 
The rage is for fine fruit, afed there is no prob¬ 
ability that the market will tc overstocked for a 
generation to come. The consumption of fruit 
is increasing in a fargreaurpatio than the pop¬ 
ulation, and the recent method of canning, has 
immensely increased the dtruaud for summer 
fruits as well as the public djmaud lor large sup¬ 
plies. This is a change mol favorable for the 
health of our people, and na me need have any 
fears that fruitgrowing will L his day or in that 
of his children, fall to return largo profits. 
We say to every one who owns a patch of 
ground or a farm, if you him a corner in which 
a treo can stand or a platl however small in 
which fruits can grow, to loan no time in turn¬ 
ing it to account. We say to the larger land- 
owner who has not all kinds of fruit srrowimr

VEGETABLE GARDEN 
OCTOBER. 
Roots of most kinds, such as carrots, beets, 
etc., should be taken up before the frost Is 
severe. They ail keep best packed iu the sand 
iu the open air, but it is too inconvenient to get 
at them in winter; hence cellars are employed 
to preserve them In. Cellars for this purpose 
should be cool, with a temperature of about 45 
deg., and not at all dry. It is not meant that it 
should be damp, as the roots will become rot¬ 
ten, but it must be moist enough to prevent 
shrivelling. 
Cabbages can be preserved in such a collar, 
though most prefer them in the open uir. One 
way is to pack them closely together with their 
roots uppermost, aud then cover them withsoll, 
ou which straw or litter is thrown to keep them 
from freezing. By being packed this way, the 
water cannot get into the hearts, whic h is one of 
the chief causes of their rotting. Where plenty 
of boards can bo had, they may bu packed with 
their heads uppermost, aud the rain kept off liy 
the material. 
Broccoli und tudive may bo taken up with 
balls of earth, aud set in cool cellars closely 
together, and they will grow sufficiently—the 
former to produce good heads, aud the latter to 
blanch beautifully all through the winter. 
Celery must have continued attention to 
blanching as it grows, care being exercised to 
prevent the soil from entering the heart. Where 
very fine results are desired, the plants should 
be protected from early severe frosts, so as to 
enable tbc plants to grow, without injury as long 
as possible. 
Asparagus beds should bo cleaned by having 
the old stems cut off and tlio soils from the 
alley-ways dug out and thrown over the beds. 
It keeps the frost from the roots, and thus per' 
mils them to grow and lay up matter all wiutcr 
tor next spring’s growth. Very curly in spring 
the soil should bo raked back into the alleys, so 
tis to leave the roots but a lew inches under the 
soil, as tie: nearer they are to the sun’s ruvs, the

A writer “On Furnishing,” in London So¬ 
ciety, gives these hints as to the proper and 
tasteful furnishing of rooms: 
Onr theory is that no one thing should catch 
the eye. There should be harmony throughout; 
and we would recommend that groat attention 
be paid to the color of the walls, If they, the 
ceiling and the carpet are well selected, all other 
points of detail are like the finishing touches of 
a picture. The right tone having been attained 
the rest is comparatively easy. 
We have found grays, light greens, and pale 
mauve to work up well; and the less pattern 
there is in the paper the better, unless, for some 
special reason, a chintz paper is desired. If the 
room faces the south a cool gray or mauve Is 
good; aud for a north room we have seen a 
yellowish-green answer admirably, imparting to 
the room the appearance of sunshine. 
As a rule, we have found it best to avoid reds, 
especially a dark-red, which is offensively dingy. 
Blue is a dangerous color to use. It is so apt 
to make a room either gaudy or cold ; though 
we have seen it effectively used with pink to 
give a Pompadour look. 
For carpets we incline to small inoffensive- 
patterns, and generally avoid those which are 
tlowery, ns being iu thcoiy and effect bad. 
As to the arrangement of the furniture it is 
difficult to say much, as everything depends 
upon what it consists of. But we have generally 
found it desirable to keep the center of the room 
and the space before the fire quite free, and to 
eschew a round table. If wc must have one we 
prefer pushing it into c • >tnu corner ol' the room- • 
anywhere but iu the middle, 
Wb once asked a lady who was conspicuous 
for the excellent taste she displayed in furnish¬ 
ing her rooms, wherein her secret lay, and she

IMPORTANCE OF THE GRAPE 
There exists at present through the country 
whut many regard as a grope mania. Wo think 
It hardly deserves the name, although some cul¬ 
tivators may be more sanguine of profits and 
success than facts will warrant. The numerous 
authenticated statements of the high profits 
sometimes resulting from the sale of the crop, 
varying under good management, from four to 
nine hundred dollars per acre, in favorable sea¬ 
sons, have produced a wild enthusiasm in that 
portion of the community who like to make 
rnouey. Iu this particular it is probably carried 
to au extreme. But in relation to the value of 
the grape crop ns furnishing a supply of fresh 
aud excellent fruit to families, from mid sum¬ 
mer (if we get earlier sorts i to the succeeding 
spring, its value is hardly yet apreeiated. 
Wo observed a st riking indication of the deep 
interest felt iu grape culture at the late meeting 
ot the Fruit Growers’ Society of Western New 
York. The room was crowded with eager 
inquirers after truth—many could not gain ad¬
