In sotting out strawborr bods, cither (or family or market, to como Into bearing tho next year, that is, about tlfteon months after sotting, wo should cortainly prefer to pursue tho common practleo of of setting out slnglo plants, ol ono season a growui. Hut thero may bo cosos, wliero en old bed has becomo so nnroductivo as to render it impolitio to rotain it another year, and yet to plow It undermight learo the family without any supply for the current season. In such acaso a resort to tho method ro commondedby a oorrospondcntof tho Gar den an English papor for a tomporary sup ply, might bo jnttltloJ. lint at tho xatno tlmo wowould start another bed, with singlo plants.for tho nox yoar. Wo copy tho plan of tho Englishman: Having rend of a now method for form ing strawberry beds, I thojght I .would try it, and it proved n groat niiccosi. In previous years our crop havo been very Iioor, considering tho attontion they havo ladj but this yonr, with tho now method, wo hail nbundanco of fruit. Tho way in which I planted my bod is ns follows: I did not out any runners off tho old bed, but allowed them to run into a mass. In tho autumn I linod strips abont 0 inohos widoaod i! foot apart through 1U longth, and put tliom in squares o( u inches. Xheso I took np with a spado at 3 lnohcs deep, in tno boa prepared for mem a nan trenchos dug 'i foot apart, nnd placed tho squaros of atrawborry roots In them at a distanco of IS Inches from each other. The roots wore not injured In the least, and tho crop wni oxcollont. I hid tho trenches that wcro tuodoMn tho old bed filled with ono part well-rotted manure and two parts stiff loam, nnd the bed was soon covered with plant. Thus by do green you can rononr tho old bed as woll as from now ono. Cortainly with tho old plan of only slnglo roots wo obtained flnor snecimons of fruit, but unless fruit .for snow is required, I adviso ovsrylone,tt try tho nbova plan for quantity, 'nnd' thoy will not Ik disapnointod. A inarkot gam ncr near hero, who grows large quantities of strawberrioH for sail, mows tho tops off a soon as they havo ilono fruiting, covors tnom up wiui jongisu manures, ami rages It off In tho spring. This Is rather rough treatment, but uo always na an immonio quantity of fruit. Hybrid Raspberries. Mr. W. niirulori, of London, Ontario, bas been trying experiments in ny unitizing tho black and red raspberry. Ho thinks that ho has sucooodoil In obtaining an un doubted cross between tho Uoolitlls and Fhlladeliihia which combines the qualities and habits of both. In n lottor to tho Gartlener't Monlhlu. ho nays: " I send you by mail samples of tho fruit ot mo llrst, ono to niioii, which i uiinu shows nndoubtoil evidence of tho blood of both parent. In habit and manner of, Jrowtli all thoso seedlings resomblo the Hack-Cap, and thoy root from tho tips although not so readily as the lllack-Cap. Tho foliago shows soma rosemblanco to that of tho rhlhiilelphii. Tho fruit of thoso seedling will vary much In their poriod ot ripening, somo of them aro not raoro than half grown. Tho fruit is of a dark red color, and sooms to mo, without doubt, to blond tho flavor of tho rod rasp berry with that of tho Ulaok-Cap. If you examine tho receptacle on which tho fruit sots, you will sou that it is Intermediate in form between that of tho lllack-Cap and lied llaspborry." Wo havo but llttlo doubt that such crosses between tho red and black rasp borrics aro ofton effectod without tho nid of man. Tho now variety, called Onminjun IMrlil Iwarn strong ovldelico of being suoh n hybrid, nnd if it is, must havo boon pro dncod without tho Intervention ot human nid. Tho great diflloulty, ill onr opinion, lies In tho fact that tho offspring of such unions nre generally Inferior to both pa rents, whethor thoy nro chance hybrids or artificially produced. l'LAMiNit Tiuwnr.nmK.1. Mr. I. sholls well, lu Cutti:i (fariUmr, has tried tho follow ing method with great success: The way in which I planted my bed is n fol lows. I did not cut any runners off tho old beds, but allowed them to run into n mass. In tho nutuiun I Hue strips about nine inches wida mid two feet apart through its length, and cut them In squares oi Ulna mono, thoso i iook up wiui n spado at throo itiolio deep, In the bed prepared for Ilium I had trenches dug two loci apart, ami piuciii iiiuiMjuurusui strnw borrv roots in Ilium, at n distanco of cictli teen inches from eaeh other. Tho roots wore not Injured In tho least, and tha crop was excellent. I had tho tronohes that wero mada in tho old bed llllcd with ono part well-rotted mauuro and two parts stilTlonm, and thebed was soon coicrod with plants. Thus, by dogreos. yon cau ronew tho old bed a well as form now ones. Certainly with tho old plan of planting slnglo roots wo obtalnod finer specimens ot fruit, but unless fruit for stiowis required, I adviso everyone to try tho hIhivo plan for quantity, and they will not bo disappointed.

Taking Impressions of Leaves. ) Rub Vermillion, nllraninrlno, chroma green, or their tqntralent well up with cator-oll to a tblek pasts or kiuJ of printing ink, then take thin strong paper and cover it very thinly with the paint thus obtained, by means of a stiff iirusn. Ills wen loaomison n wnrni none si ib, so a to be able to put the paint on thin enough: then pot Ihe back of the leal of which von lh to take the Imnresulon on this psner. put nnothtr paper over it, and rub down. This Cannes tbe paint 'to adhere ,to the projecting pnns oi lue leaves; place mo icai mus prer(-ti with paint on tha clean sheet of paper on which yon wish to make thoirnpresslou, place another clean paper over It, rnb rown, ami you will be surprised how the markings p the leaves will he printed In detail. Lacs does not take the printing-ink so woll, and would besides be polled by it; bnt you can make an Imprcailon of it by placing It between two sheets of thin, smooth, and strong paper) place this on top oi tbe sheet prepared with the color n ile-eilbcil, and this ngalu on the sheet to be 'printed upon. Then you way by rubbing down form a good Impression on the laoe, on the prlociplo of the mnltlple writer. If yonr prepared paper dirties the clean paper on which it lays, yon have too much color on It. which you most remove by lavins several times on it n clean sheet of paper, snd rub. Observe that the operation requires a hard smooth table, or better, n stoic slab. In order to obtain Boo Imnresulon. Ihe above Inks are indelible on paper. To make it Indelible en cloth, whieh may. he washed, rnb some nitrate of silver in the black Ink. If you want It to dry quick, you may mix some uoseeii on wun yuur camor on, nut men your prepared paper will not Inst so long, a this retaina its efllcacy only n long 'as the. pilot I not dried np. .Vanti'idiirtr uncf JluikUr. r Tests for Drinking Water. In llreslaii, the Government have taken some wise precautions to prevent the Introduc tion snd spread of cholera, and among theso Iheystronxlr urge tho chemical analysis of drinking water. Tim following tests era the most important, and quite eanily applied : 1. Testing for nnuuonls wiih-Nfsaler's solo.. tltn. Fremnlu prepare this reagent by dis solving 3 5 grams potauio iodide In 10 c. o. water, and afterwards dissolving l.C grama mrrcnrle chloride (corrosive sublimate) in 30 o. o. water, then adding the latter solution to the former gradually, till a permanent precipi tate la produced, Then add a solution of potiuh until luo iiuki measure iwc. o., nun llltir. A. few drops of thl solution added to water containing ammonia Rives a yellow or brown eolor. It only a slight turbidity is prodncsd, or a white precipitate, it indicate a hard water, and is earned by csrlionate of lime present. 2. Testing for nitrous acid. To 100 or 200 e. c. water are added 3 c. c. dilute aulphurlo acid snd freshly prepared starch paste, containing potajulo Iodide. If a blue color Is produced at once. It Is dne to Incomplete putrefaction, 3. Testing for nltrio add. To 23 c. c. of the water Is added CO o. c. pure concentrated sill phurlo acid (OP II.), and, while still very warm, nil extremely dilute indigo solution is allowed to drop into It. If the color of the IndlRO disappears luiruedisttly, even when re peatedly added, the water may be considered as suspicious, If not dangerous. lrfUin. How to Tavx Brum. In Manchester, Englsnd, there is a street, subjected to heavier travel than any Philadelphia thoroughfare, that has not been repaved or repaired for twen ty years, and yet It Is In better condition than luont of our newly paved atreets, 'I he process by which auch good paving Is secured has not been pstentcd, and Is, In fact, no more of a novelty than the process of la) Ing foundations for a biilldinir. Although tho streets of Man chester are not subjected to the sudden chsnges of temperature by which in this city the road lxdU expanded and contracted until well-laid surisce stones are inrowu irom tneir position, yet before this Manchester atreet was paved ihe natural earth was dug away to a depth of two feet. Upon this bottom, which wss con sidered below the penetrating power of frost, a Isyer of small stones, and on that successive layers of atones, of different sites, from that of a man's bend to the site of a walnut, were spread and carefully compacted together. Upon this innoadamlted roadway cubical granite blocks were laid, with small Interstloea between esoh stone, into which small gravel stones were put ana wen rauiiueu aown. ine wnoie street wss then covered with asnhsltum. maklna it as nearly ss possible waterproof. Any water wuicu suoui.igsi ueiow me surisce or rise from below would find a courso between the larger atones of the foundation. The first co.t of pre paring auch a roadway would be proortional ly heavy, bnt would In the end be much lea than Ihe cost of relaying the pavemeut every rear or two. to say notblinr of Ihe Incouveu. ience arising from Ihe tearing up of roadways at frequout intervals.

Hides treated wilh charcoal do not require fnrlher treatment, as Is tbe case now wilh the lime process : snd after being washed with water, they are ready for tanning. This will be a great advantage to the tanning trade, as leather treated in lb! way possesses mors toughness, solidity, ami uexibiiuy. rue other Advantage of this treatment are great saving In time and labor, each hide weighs 10 1 pennti more, ana nss lets spots, ine wors Is more pleasant and healthy, tho splitting with ihs machine is-moro eaillr sccorahlisbeo. and the cost price Is the same a with 'lime, as the charcoal can be. 011 over 'again'. lAnlmil or vegetable coal can be used in any quantity, bavins no deleterious nronertr whatsoever : and for each hide 0 or 10 pound, with tho ne ccsssry qusntily of water, are snfnclent. iiThe temperslure should be 013 or 703 Pah., andean easily be maintained by Introducing steam Into Ihe vats. Tho tanning process Is fscilitated, as no lime is left behind lu neutralize tbe tsnnlo acid. i J Lxatiiis ltoiED.
