CZLTCT.Z OF TEEAPEICOT. "
The Apricot is one' of the most de-
a.
EiraLle of all fruits, and with a little
skill and attention to guard against the
- ravages of the curculio and exposure
to cold winds, the crop may he as certain
as that of the peach, and much more
profitable. Wc have known several
trees in Columbus, standing in shelter
ed situations, that have borne good
crops as often as three, years out of
iivc, and afforded more profit to their
"owners than any other trees cn their
. premises. They arc of the varieties
ezllcd Early Golden, Large Early, and
'JUach Apricot. The last named especi-
ally is a very hardy and productive
.variety, the fruit resembling a plum in
appearance, ane selling for a large
price at the confectionaries. The fol
lowing is abridged from a communica-
tion.in a late, number of the Horticul
turist. . M. B. B.
.. . -xt is remarKaoic mar a iruit oi so
much excellence as the Apricot, ripen
ing before the best early peaches,
should be so little known, commanding
us '.it docs the highest price in the
market, inasmuch as 1 have been
quite successful in the cultivation of
this fruit, I propose to say a few words!
on this subject for the benefit of those i
persons who have failed in its culture,
and those, also who arc afraid to try,
on" account of . its great enemy the
curculio. I will state that I am located
' on the cast bank of the Hudson River,
.twelve miles below the city of Hudson.
The soil on the ridges is a strong loam,
. with a clay subsoil, containing a large
percentage of lime. This is the favo--ritc
soil of the Apricot; the trees grow
moderately fast, and make a good, firm
growth' of wood, that generally stands
, our fold winters well; The most trying
time for the. Apricot, with us, is when
in full bloom; at that period we fre
quently have cold, windy weather, and
, Sometimes frost. On referring to my
journal, I. find the following entries:
'April 16 j 1854, commenced snowing
very fast; wind, northwest; snow fell
a foot deep; fruit buds of the Apricot
. just" ready to burst. r May 7. Apricots
in fall bloom; cold north wind; made
ice,- that night, three-eighths of an
inch in. exposed places. Notwithstand
ing the -cold and frosty weather of the
7th.of May, all Apricot trees in shel
tered place's had a pretty good crop of
iruu. .Liust season icoo) they pro
duced an abundant crop, especially
where, they stood somewhat sheltered,
' setting -twice as much fruit as they
1 1 1 . . - .
'couia with satcty mature. W hen the
fruit was half grown, I picked about
two bushels off, scarcely any of them
Showing the mark of the curculio; as
rthe fruit advanced towards matrity, it
wasquite evident there was not half
enough oH yet. However, there was
ho. pore taken of the trees till the fruit
'got -ripe, but if I had taken twice the
.amount off, in a green state, that I be
" fore mentioned, the crop would have
sold for more. The crop during the
past "season has not only been gratify-
ing to my pride as a fruit grower, but
rhas proved eminently profitable, con
sidering the labor bestowed. . From 25
, trees, part nine years planted, and the
. balance planted within the last four
-years, there were taken 12 busheh of
rthis delightful midsummer fruit, which
6old, in the New Yorket, at prices
ranging from 5 to 10 per bushel, the
.most -of them for the latter price.
In conclusion, I. will say, brother
' iruit growers, if you. have tried to grow
tliis-tnily golden fruit, and have been
-disappointed, "try again" is the motto.
," iSomc writers say : " Don't plant in
warm. situations, a3 on the warm side
-of a building, or other sheltered site
facing the sun." This advice may be
proper in some places, but it certainly
.is not here. By all means, plant in
- -sheltered places if possible, for it is
well known that a . cold north wind is
very destructive to this fruit, when it
is In' full bloom. A tight board fence,
7 or 8 feet high, affords very good
"shelter for the Apricot and Grape, etc.
Apricot trees can be planted on the sun
side within three feet of the fence;

In the July number of the Planter,
page 204, 1 have read your remarks on
sweenev." and vour quotations
from
Percival showing that the disease .'.'is
in the foot" and not in the shoulder.
I cannot undertake to say that . I know
the disease is not in the foot, but I
mi ? m
rrrtnin.v hcUevc. that in a case of
sweeney the foot is not at all affected.
We know that in a case of settled
sweeney the foot i3 a good deal affected,
whether as a cause or result, we do not
now propose to discuss. Ed. 0. Cul.'
In the last ten years I have had three
or four cases of sweeney, and in every
instance I could trace the disease to a
stain or bruise on the shoulderby
having the collar too largo and thereby
pressing too far back on the shoulder,
and following land very hard and dry
it i3 ant to cive a vounrr horsothe
Sweeney or by ploughing new ground
that i3 full of roots and stumpy.
The disease is easily cured in the
following manner: Take up the .skin
of the horse (between the thumb and
forefinger) at the top of the part of the
shoulder that is sunk, which will be
from one to two inches from the top
of the withers, and make an incision
through the skin with a sharp pen
knife, there insert a coose quill and
blow up the skin, and with your hand
M I j A
press the wind along the part that is
sunk to its-lowest extremity thus
filling the part that is fcunk with air
until it is ct least - even with - the , sur
rounding parts, and stick a piece of
pitch over the incision, and a cure will
be effected. 1 have never had to repeat
the above operation but once, except
in a case that I had this summer.
had to make a second incision andblow
it up as at first, and poured in through
the quill as much spirits of turpontine
as the quill would hold, and the horse
was well in three weeks, although at
work all the time. It is better to rest
the horse if you can, but not absolutely
necessary. Respectfully,

AGRICTJLTTTEE Iff CALIFOEff A. '
From the report of the Surveyor
General of California, it appears that
the agricultural interest of that State
bids fair to take the lead of even ', the
mining interest.
According to this report there are
enclosed, and under scientific cultiva
tion, three hundred thousand acres of
farming land in California. This does
not include pasture range, or grazing
grounds, but means farms, tilled as
they are at the East, with improved
implements and agricultural economy.
The growth of cereals is stated at eight
millions of bushels, but the proportions
of each are not given. All grains,
however, thrive well; but barley m
particular, grows with unparalleled
uxunance.
Of potatoes, the crop was but five
hundred thousand bushels, but the
ground devoted to them was limited.
1 hundred thousand fruit trees were
planted, and the number of grape vines
increased to over a million and a
quarter. The Spanish Jesuits had
already eight hundred thousand vines.
and at present these are the only ones
wnicn prouuee iruit. . xney are ot the
Alalago variety, and their remarks.ble
fecundity has led to steps forrjthe
turthcr cultivation of the grape. "The
Purveyor is of opinion that, as a wine
producing country, California will soon
tar exceed Uhio m importance." The
Malaga grape, however, is not con
sidered the best. It is easily cultivated,
and therefore commended itself to the
slothfulness of the Spaniards; but the
Catawba and Isabella varieties will
command the attention of the vine
growers ot the new btate as .better
adapted to the making .of wine, -and
ot more value m themselves. Wash.

BAELEY WITHOUT BEARDS.
"We have from I. W. Briggs a sample
of barley which he says has been dis
covered m the gulches of the Hima
layan Mountains, entirely free from
those annoying and poisonous beards
attached to all our common varieties.
The undersigned obtained 7 grains
of this new variety three years ago
and being much pleased with its gene
ral appearance and productiveness, has
spared no pams to multiply this small
quantity as fast as the Shanghais and
other birds would allow. '
Its merits for grinding or malting
have been tested, and the quantity is
now too small to squander in that way,
when every tiller of the soil who . sees
it is anxious to have a few grains, not
doubting it will prove a valuable acqui
sition. I have sufficient, however, to
furnish all persons interested who will
be likely to see this notice, with one
head each, containing 30 to 60 grains.
Send me your address, on a stamped
envelope, and I will enclose a head,
and send it back by return mail, with
printed instructions for cultivating in
a way to insure a large return from a
small quantity of seed. Should this
new variety be found to answer all the
purposes of the common barley, a few
years will suffice to drive the "barley
ocaras irom the country;
Should any person desire more than
the one head, I will send a package of
uu 10 ovv grams, securely enveloped,
by mail, post paid, for 25 cts., accom
panied with a few heads to prove tk
fact of its being beardless.
