Kennicutt says of the Concord and Delaware Grape : "Speaking of Grapes: Charles G. Downing, Newburgh, New York, says in a recent article : Concord and Delaware Grapes seem to be the har diest species. Isabella, Diana, Ca tawba, and Rebecca have suffered ve ry much; and in soiie casesjhe vines are dead, If such winters as the last two" or three continue, we shall have to bury our vines in the fall. In fact I believe it is, the best plan even if the wir.ters are mild. The trouble is not much, and I think the fruit will be earlier and better for it. Five years ago, Charles Carpen ter, of Kelly's Island sent us a half dozen small vines of the Concord and Delaware, but the label on the latter being lost, the Concord only was cherished, and fruited the next year; and has always proved robust and per fectly hardy. The fourplant3 of Del aware were never even tied up till '60, but left to ramble and grow as they pleased. Our little boys say they bore every year, but the seniors did not discover it till last September. The vines were then . loaded with the most delicious grapes, and in Novem ber we cut a heap of wood from them and found about a dozen natural lay ers well rooted. Not a shoot nor even a bud, had even been winter-killed, and the vines instead of being "fee ble, are stronger than Isabellas, of the same age growing near them. I think, therefore, it is safe to say, the Delaware is a strong and perfectly hardy vine; and I am inclined to set it down with the Concord as beins the hardiest grapes for the Northwest The Delaware has been propagated into a feeble growth by house culture, but its constitution is still unimpaired.

The mulch was applied id the latter part of Summer, just as the earliest buds were developing. The ground was first thoroughly hoed to soften the surface. As the litter did not present a very heat appear ance to the eye, we sprinkled over the top of it a little fresh mown grass from the lawn. This mulch kept the ground from drying up, and when the rain fell it leached through the mulch carrying more or less liquid manure. But the rains not being always as abundant as we could desire, the soap suds from the weekly wash wa3 applied and with good effect. The result of the whole was a fine bloom and a constant succession of flowers, unchecked by the prevailing drouth. The soap suds was also ap plied to the fol'tige, and served to check the ravages of insects. We advise young flourists, who are apt to get discouraged with their dahlias, to make a note of this. Amer. Agriculturist Army Worm. The parent moth of the army worm that has proved so injurious through out Ohio and neighboring States this summer, is the Leucanea Extraneja.' It is rather remarkable that this in sect has received so little attention from naturalists. . We have discover ed at least three parasitic insects that destroy the army worm, probably four The fourtheoming Ohio Agricultural Report will contain a full account of the insect, its habits, changes and en emies. For the identification of" this moth, we are indebted to Dr. John G. Morris, of Baltimore Maryland, au thor of the catalogue of described Lepidoptera of North America, pub lished recently by the Smithsonian Institution, at" Washington one of a series of very valuable works on the entomology of our country. We hope to see them all completed as soon as possible.

Paper from LeaYes or Indian Corn According to a French journal the man ufacture of paper from corn leaves may be now regarded as an accomplished suc cess. . . The conversion of the fibers of maize into paper is to day an industrial fact confirmed by extensive success, and this discovery cannot fail to influence consid erably the price of paper. The di.cov. ery it is true is not absolutely nw ; in the eighteenth century th manufacture was in operation in Italy with rermrka ble succe?; but strange to say, the secret wa? k?pt by thp inventor, and was hi a at his death. Many attempts since made to revive the manufacture have "all recoiled before the difficulty of removing from the leaves the silica and resinous matter which they contain, and which cbiructs the conversion of pulp into sheets. Hap pily this secret has just ben rediscover ered, and not, as would hive been an ticipated, by a chemist, but by a Jewish writing-master M. Moritz Diamant, an Austrian subject to whom the new dis covery is ?oing to give a considerable fortune. His process is applied at the present moment on a very large scale, at the Imperial manufacture of Schlogtl borcr, in Lower Austria. Although the machinery of the establishment was con structed for working rags, and U not all adapted to the kind of preparition .hat corn leaves requre, the esay which has been male has had a prodigious success; the paper obtained leaves nothing to be desired in strength, hojnogeniety, polish and whiteness. In the last point; partic larly, the sheet from corn surpasses that from rags, which always contain impuri ties that can be removed only with great difficulty. It is Count Carl de Lippe WeissenfTeld who operates at this moment the discov ery of M. Moritz Diamant, interested, as may well be Opposed, in the fabrication of paper from maize. According to the German journal from which wc have borrowed the preceeding details, the principal advantages of this new manufacture are the following: i. It is not solely possible to produce from the loaves of maizs all the species of paper manufactured at this d iy ; but it happens, furthermore, that in several respects this p.iper is superior to that !;-! frorii' r.i us. 2. 3kt littK ire the r1' Frern the Country Gentleman. Keep tlic Burs or all Machines Screwed on Tiht. This precept is seldom thought cf when using tools and implements, until burr has worked off, a bolt lost, or a hule worn so large that repair is necessary, or until a break down puts an tad to the present operations. "That burr worked loose, and this is bruken inconsequence, and we are down until we can go to the machine s-hop," h a very familiar and oft repeated extres-ii-,n among farmers. Vv'hvn every part of a inachin. i made of iron and tolled together ever so tightly, the burrs will often work loe as sodn as it has been in uss. fur a hurt lime. There will always bo aliiti. rr u dmg, a "little give and take" in almost ev;ry portian of a machine when in use, and lor this reason the burr should be examined often, and if at all loose, should be screwed up tight. When bolts have beta put through wood, the wood almost always shrinks a 1 j tile, after the parts of an implement have been put to gether, and for this reason the burs will be a little loose, even if they were orig inally screwed up tight. My own practice always has been to examine all the burrs frequently cn all kinds of implements, and especially those on cari.iges, and keep everything screw ed up tight. This not only prevents un necessary clatter, but it keeps every part in order. As soon as a bolt or a burr becomes loose enough to work a very little when an instrument is in motion, it will in a short time begin to wear, and the great er the play may be, that is, the looser it is, the faster will the parts wear. The springs of carriages, aud the jack-irons which support the bodies, and the claspes about the azletrees work ve ry loose frequently, and if the burrs that hold them in their places' are not as of ten screwed up,, the wood will need to be renewed again in a very short time. I have often observed spring tars of carriages, and the head blocks, and some other parts, that had been spoiled com pletely, because the burrs which secured ihs iron work had not been screwed up tight The wooden frames of snrno kinds of IIo7 Seeds arc Dlisenilnatea.' Bird Planters. Occasionally, when threading the woods m the fall, you will hear a sound as if some cue had treken a iwig, ana tooling up, see a jay peckii at an acorn, or you will see a i;cck of them at once about it, in the tcp tf au oak, and hear them breaking thern cf. They then fly .to a suitable limb, anJ placing the acorn under cr.e foot, hammer away at it busily, making a sound like a woodpecker's tapping, lu0"kin-round from time to lime to time to see if any fo h ! menu starch is rnin d to y ' f.tr r'-Hvl:.- Ari.i:;- 1 1 j frrrroachinr. and socti nzcl an: nibbling at it, holdinj un their pxll to -swallow while thev hold the remise- very firmly with their claws. Nevsrths theless, it often drops to the ground b-. fore the bird has done with it. I can confirm what William Betram wrote to Wilson, the Ornithologist, that "the jay ia one of the most useful agents in the econ omy of nature, for disseminating fores; trees and other nuciferous and hard seeded vegetables cn which they live. Their chief employment daring the au tumnal season is foraging to supply their winter stores. In performing thi3 necesr sary duty they drop abundance cf seed in . their flight over fields, hedge 3, and by' fences where they allight to deposit them in uie post nuies, etc. it is remarkab a that numbers of young trees rise up in the fields aal pasture? after a wet winter and spring. These birds alcr.9 are ca. pable, in a few years tine to replant all the cleared lands. uinaEL Plante3S. I haro noticed that squirrels also frequently drop their nuts in open land, which will still further account for the oaks aaJ walnuts which spring up in pastures; fcr depend on it, every new tree comes from a seed. When I examine the litil caks, ens or two years old, ineuch places, I invariably find the empty acorn from which they sprung. So far from the seed havirg Iain cor mant in the soilsir.ee caks grew there before, as many believe, it is weil known that it is difficult to preserve the vitality of arorns long enough to transport them to Europe; and it is recommended ia ' Loudon's Arboretum, as the safest coarsa, to sprout them in pots on the voyage. The same authority states that "very few acorns of . : , j nr. 7 t : r euiia i': ;.u iu-- lacl Unit II. -j cula leaves already coutaiu a natural ingredi ent that takes the place of starch. This ingredient may easily be removed if de sired. 3. The bleaching of this paper is effected almost instantaneously by a process the most simple and most efficacious. It is, furthermore, only feebly colored, and for wrappiug paper the bleaching is entirely unnecessary. 4. The paper from maize i3 stronger more tenacious than the best paper made from rags. There is none of the fragility which characterizes paper into the com position of which ordinary straw enters a fragility which is principally due to the abundance of salica contained in jstraw. 5. In tl e process invented by M. Mor itz diamant, no species of machinery being necessary to convert the fibers of maize into paper pulp, and this conversion being made by means entirely different from those, employed in working rags, there results a great simplification in the appa ratus, and consequently a notable reduc tion in the manual labor and the expense of tne manufacture. From the Valley Farmer. A Grain Binder. The Editor of the Iroquois (III.) Re publican, says that Mr. D. W. Ayres of that place has been for some years work ing on a model for a grain binder, and at one time completed and filed a caveat for a machine that would bind with the straw of graiu, but after consideration, concluded that it was too complicated for general use, tind so abandoned it. Hav tng heard of the wire and string binders, set himself about learning their qualifica tions. The string binder he found would not prove valuable for the reason that no machinery could be made to tie a knot, and the sheaves had to be made all one size to suit the length of the strings (which are made one uniform length with a knot at each end,) else the sheaves would be imperfectly bound or not bound at ail: The wire binder, Mr. A. feared would be too expensive, but on ascertaining that wire could be furnished at a cost not exceeding eighteen or twenty cents to the acre, he went to work to perfect'a wire binding machine, capable of being attached to any ordinary reaper, and ot binding to its full cutting capacity that would fill all the requirements of a suc cessful self-binder. In this machine the simple movement of getting the wire around the bundle, does all the rest. The wire is carri-d around the bundle by a revolvsrg nr.v, attached to a crank, which prts. - ih;. bundle together and operates the cutting and twisting device one turn of ihe revolving arm completely binding a bun dle. Its capacity, when attached to a reaper, will be fully equal to the cutting capacity of the reaper, and will bind a iarge or small bundle equally well. As the :rain is ralced from the board on which it falls directly into the binder, it of course does not touch the ground until it is bound int i a sheaf, and the ground over which ti. machine passed at tbe trial was ah:i.j. as clear of straw as if none had ever grown there. . . . -! t.jf V ...

S. Todd wit sr." :.l . - n it Unfermentea Bread. Bread is a matter which comes home to the stomaches of everybody, and we would say word on fermented and unfermented bread. In bread-making the only pur pose served by fermentation, is tlie gen eration of carbonic acid to raise the dough, and to effect this a quantity of yeast is mixed with flour. But the same purpose is gained by mixing a quantity of carbon ate of soda-with the flour, with a corres ponding proportion of muriatic acid, and bread so formed is more nutrious and economical. This kind of bread never sours on the stomach. By this method bread can be made in two hours, and it saves both time and labor. The ingredi ents are simple, and costs but litile. Fermentation always destroys more or less of the flour, besides otherwise injur ing it for the purpose of assimilation. A large proportion of the bread in some communities, is scarcely more than an active form of yeast, thrown into the stomach only to produce fermentation and a host of disorders. And then we witness-, of course, the blue vapors, which under different aspects, are as ruinous to the welfare and peace of a family ns are those of a distillery The proportion of acid and soda (baktng soda) directed to be used, may be thought too great, in which Case they may be varied at discre tion. The following formula is recommended for unfermented bread : Take of flour three pounds, bicarbonate of soda nine dranchms, hydrochloric acid, 11, specific gravity 1 16-100. About 25 oz. of water will be required to form the dough. First mix the soda and flour a3 thoroughly as possible. This is best done ty shaking the soda (in fine powder) from a sieve over the flour with one hand, while the flour is stirred with the other, and then passing the mixture once cr more through the sieve. Next pour the aciJ into the water, and diffue it by stirring them well t.iethr. av.ndintr the use of any mdalir. n ii .t? V.n' acid might come in con :act wlh. Thn mix the flour and water m prepared as speedily as possible. The dough should be put into a quick oven speedily. This manner of making bread will, if practiced, be found to be a great improvement, a id advantageous compared with the fermenting method, and also the quality will be found vastly superior to the antique "leavened bread."

As things are, it is likely, while the sexes retain their present equality, that our girls, whom it is sought to put down t the desk and the counter, will have to abandoned them when they become wives and mothers. In other words, thrir fu ture life is to be wives, and not book keepers md accountants. All the time, therefore, that they employ in the counting-house, is so much time lost; it not only does not fit them, tut positively unfits them for their future duties. We all know that factory-girls make the worst wives; anl if the ideal of the aivecatss of won. en's work were carried cut, all ' classes of society would but repeat, under modifications, the type of a factory-wife. Given a factory-girl and a domestic ser vant, and which dees the working-man chouse ? This single circumstance dis-' po-es of all the fantastic claims which are urged for introducing unmarried females to business. We utterly deny that a girl in a respectable family does not earn the honorable tide cf a worker, though she only be employed in assisting in housekeeping ana at the famuy wor; table, just as fairly and as completely a3 if she walked to a solicitor's criice for an eight hours daily taslc tf co-'yi:.-- briris and making out bills cf costs. We de cline to limit woman's work to that nar row and unnatural estimate which con fines it to an equivalent fur ?i diy's pay.
