Cutting Underbrush
Kt. Fakmkr: As qulto a nutnbor of farm
ers hnvo (old their eziierlonco in cutting
undot brush, I will glvo mlno. In May, '73,
I cut homo underbrush; at this tlmo tho
brunh huh In full leaf. About tho 10th of
August I cot tho slush on 11 ro, and a good
part of It burnt oil'; tho part that did not burn
oil' was rather thin of brush , and tho roots
of tho brush throw up strong growth about
ol(;htociu Inchon high. It was was burnt oir
ubout tho llrHt of October fjllowlng tho tlmo
circuiting. New, for tho rostilts tho pait
thut mum burnt oir In August aro just alive; a
good pitlr of ozou, or fttnu of Iioisoh, with n J
Hinall bumking plow can go right along,
turning every thing boforo them. Tho roots
on tliu imrt that wiih burnt till' tlio first r
October aro iloitl, I inty sny roltou, lor It Is
notioiiblu to plow through thorn, though
noiiio of tho hIooIh woro otio foot by eighteen
Inehoi Molltl. Now, Mr. Kdllor, I havo dono
coiishUirHbIn stashing, mid am satisfied that
tliutoiirv but a low dny at most In a your
that brush onn bo cut whan It will dlo. A.
Jiydi', writing on this Miljict, mys: "Au

Tho dllleieuco botwoon tho mouth of May
and August, abovo written, would neein loo
fir apart lor fainter. to Iry experiments,
but lot mo nay that tho writer quoted Is an
JviMoiii man, and vogotHllou dlU'ora, Tim
hi'ifoftho ernlc Is In full HUe, at dllferent
t Inn h. In dill'oront locations; o with tho
liuiil. About hl.x yenrs ago 1 cut lour acres
brush, nearly all htv.ol, tho third fourth,
and tilth nfJuly, '7:t, and now It is not very
bard work to tako them out though very
largo. This was out after tho full hIzu of
tho leaf.
As to gottlug rid of fern, I am quite tor
iin that wo as fornioro cultivate Hindi hh
wo destroy It. Tho way to economize labor
and kill tho furu, Is to put your laud in con
dition for a spring crop, and bow cats; when
you aro dono, thou sow tho hiiuio piece of
laud to clover. If you now red clover put
ten iHimubi to thu acre; If idslko, four pounds
to tho aero. When your oats begin lo lieml,
cut tliuin for hay, mow llioin close to tho
gouud , eo you will leuvo no fern stalks with
leaves on. Cutting your oats thun in a few
days there will bo now stHlks start which
will proteut tho young clover, which will
come on and uuiko a pretty fair crop; cut
again. Maimgo thus three years, and you
can cany under your arm thu foru that will
grow on ten aeros, II. II, M.
Tho Pcnch Plum.
Ki, r-'AiiM:ii: If It would not be tresspass
lug loo uiiieh upon your kludiics to luiort
another comniuuleutloii Iroin mo In tho
columns of your valuable paper, 1 would
beg to ask Mr. Leuelllng a question or two,
uiiii to make a little further Htatoiiient In
rosjioelto thu Touch Plum, which seeniH
now to bo coming Into notoriety, whether
upon lis own merits or not, makes no dltl'or
euce. Tho people of this great and growing
frnl -rulHlnir State, who iiutloiimt'j hotting
out iToliards and who are anxious to bo In
formed as to the ustfulncKsol illH'etent varl
titles, have a right to know hoiuethlng about
this as well as other plums, and for their
hdiellt and iuforuutiou I am not sorry
tho controversy has arUen, That the lii
vontlgiiilou will result In good lo tho people
ofOngeii I havo no doubt.
Mr. I.euelllug lliuls fault Hist with my
h atiiiiniit that "I havo a droldtil opinion of
my own," and says "ho Is after flint decided
opinion." Let me ask, did I commence this
controversy T Was over a pet ton requited
by any rule of law to make his case on the
fore widely whin raided hero and especially
so In tho Peach Plum case," how, please loll
mo, aro wo to "know a treo but by Its
fruits"? Will a pear treo of tho Kt bring
forth an apple when brought to this Slate?
Will a prune be n plum or a poach or an
apricot If transplanted to our soil? I under
stand that tho nnturo and csceutlal qualities
of thu fruit hero aro tho samo as thoy woro In
tho Knst, but that somo variolic? do bettor or
woroo as tho cnto may bo here, than in tho
Kant, but the fruit is unchanged.
A word now as to tho nnmo. Mr. Leuoll
Ingsays: "Mr. Walling Is mistaken when
ho sayn that tho nanio of his Peach Plum
wan charged to G.W. Walling; fto says tho
socrotary of tho group of Judges." Now, I
havo only tho testimony of Mr. A.J. Dufur,
commissioner for Oregon, on tho cubjent,
which I hero Insert verbatim, with tho ex
ception of Inserting in his latter tho word
"lato" boforo tho words Peach plutm:

Is like Oollatli of Oath: ho Is hoad and

Mr, Darwin has rccolyod a testimonial on

ho Is not guilty. Men aro often blamed for

bus Mr. Darwin ever tald at any tlmo either
In his writings or r.ny other way that man
sprung from monkeys? If ho lias I have
never heeti it. Mr, Ourney says my quibble
