Pigeon Berry.
The Pigeon Berry, also called 1'okc
ami Garget root, is not often planted
in the vegetable gardens of this coun
try, still it is a valuable esculent, and
dcVervcs to be more extensive cultiva-
.i t ,..;n tlirivn in almost any soil
icu. - - .,
and maybe readily propagated by div
ing the old roots or irom me seuu.
The young shoots are used as a sub
stitute for, or in the same manner as
asparagus which they resemble id
taste, The sprouts may also be cooked
iii the same maimer as sea kale, or as
spinach for greens. There is also an
annual variety, the Phytolacca.but the
former is the preferable species on ac
couut of being a perennial.
Rhubarb.
Fall is the best time to divide large
stools or clumps of roots, as the lcatcs
start very caily in the spiiug. In di
viding tlic stools for planting, only a
singlcT crown should be set in a hill.
The crowns of tho roots should bo
covered some three or four inches in
heavy soils and a little deeper in light.
Like asparagus there is little danger
of making the soil for rhubarb too
rich, because tnu more rapidly the
plants grow iho more succulent and
tender the stems. There arc many va
rieties in cultivation, but the Liinueus
is now the most popular among our
market gardeners, but the Colossal
and Victoria arc probably equally as
good, and the difference is mainly in
the color of the stalks and leaves. Ca
hoou's Mammoth is the largest variety
known, but it is rather coarso aud not
quite equal to tho former in flavor.
Willow Culture.
Again we notice. that there is an at
tempt made to get- up a "basket wil
low fever," and the old story of five
millions' or mote worth of willow and
willow-ware being annually imported,
is going tho rounds of the press. Now
as a word of caution, we suggest that
before farmers or others invest heavily
in willow culture, they look into the
subject very carefully and matk tho
difference In the price of labor in this
country aud abroad, whence we ob
tain the impoitcd articles. Tho cot
of f riesrht acros3 the Atlantic and oth
er unavoidable expenses of bringing
o cr willow-ware scarcely make up for
tho difference in the price of labor on
tho opposite side of the big pond. "We
cau raise basket willow enough in any
ono of our States to supply the whole
world ; there is however an "if" aud
"but" in the way, which have been
very troublcsomo to those who went
into tho culture ot this plant in years
past. .
No Danger of Over-Pro auction of HogB.
Tlic agricultural editor of the Iowa
Stale Register maintains tho follow
ing sensible conclusion:
"There is no danger of over-production
in hogs. As our production in
creases the demand increases. The
foreign trade in tho product of the
hog is large and importaut, and in
creasing every year. In tho year end
ing November 1, 1875, wo exported of
hoc product 457,186,970 pounds. For
1R7P, larkinc sixteen das. the exports
were 605,658,642 pounds. Taking the
whole export for this year, and allow
ing 200 pounds to represent alive hog.
(as much of the export was rendered
lard and hams) it will be seen that our
foreign trade this year has taken 3,
028,233 hogs, being at least a million
more than the entire annual slaughter
at Chicago. And it took 742,358 more
hogs in 1876 to supply our foreign
trade than it did in 1875. And there
are evidences that there will bo a
largely increased demand in 1877 over
this question. It is understood that
there is now a light stock of old pork
on hand. If justice is thcieforo done
the producers' pork would command
as good, if not better, prices than at
present, throughout tho fall and
Winter."
-Tenth. Annual
The following proposed amend
ments to tho constitution of tho Na
tional Grange were adopted by a two
thirds vote of the National Grange at
its tenth annual session, viz:
No. 1. To amend article one, section
two, by inserting after the word "bal
lot" tho following words: "Any
fourth degree member, in good stand
ing, shall be eligible to office, or to re
ceive the degrees, in tho conuty, dis
trict, State or National Grangc.within
whoso jurisdiction such member may
reside, but shall not be eligible to
vote."
No. 2. To amend article ouc,section
tour, so as to read as follows : "Sec

committee, but shall not be entitled to
a vote except in case of a tic."
No. 3. To amend article two.scction
three, by striking out tho word "an
nually" and inserting in place thereof

inserting tho word "biennial" in place
thereof. This amendment shall take

National Grange to be held in the year
1877.
No. 4. To amend the pieamblc un

ment. O. II. Kelly, Secretary.

"Working Against the Fanner.
It has become quite the fashion of
late among a certain class of periodi
cals which depend largely upon a coun
try circulation for support, to tell the
farmers that men engaged in other
professions of industries arc his most
implacable enemies. This, of course,
is in unison with the oft-repeated say
ing, that "tho larmer pays for all,"
which by the way is as far from truth
as the farmer's assertion in regard to
his enemies among men in other lines
of business. Now there is no better
grounds for assuming that the capi
talist is the enemy of the agriculturist
than that every farmer is the enemy of
his doctor or minister.
Every man, no matter what his call
ing, aims to better his condition finan
cially, and in doing this he is very
prone to take advantage of the neces
sities of others in his dealings ; aud
until wo learn that it is the general
practice of farmers to sell hay for five
per ton when the market price is ten,
we shallbelieve they arc like other men
and take all they can get for whatever
they have to sell. "But," says the
farmer who resides hundreds of miles
from our seaboard cities, "do not the
railroads combine and charge exorbi
tant rates for carryiug our produce to
market?" True to the letter; but what
was or what would your farm produce
be worth without the railroads ? Then,
would it not bo well to ascertain just
how much the capitalists, who fur
nished the money to construct aud
equip these very roads which you now
denounce in no unmeasured terms,
made on their investment ? Just look
up some of tho original investor in
your nearest road and let them answer;
for if railroad building is half as safe
paiuga business as farming, then our
eyes have becu grossly deceiving us all
thiough life.
Tho capitalists who put a road
through a country, expect to make
money on their investment, a right
which every reasonable man will con
cede is their just due, aud the chang
ing of rates to secure this or eveu more
cannot be construed into enmity to
tho former or others who may desire
to use tho facilities offered for the
transportation of various articles over
the Hue. There is no compulsion in
this matter of transportation, aud if
the farmers hi Alleghany Co.,N. Y. or
elsewhere do not care to pay the exor
bitant rates charged for taking his pro
duce to market, the country roads are
open to him aud ho can haul it with
his own team, just as he or his father
did thirty years ago.
"We have lived loug enough to expe
rience some of the changes mado in
theso matters duiing tho last quarter
of a century or more, and although
there is doubtless some extortion oh
the part of transportation companies,
we should uot.like to go back to the
days of twelve cents a pound for but
ter, (and take it in trade at that,) six
cents a dozen for eggs, and other farm
produce at similar prircs all because
there was no cheap and ready means
for transporting them to a distant and
better market. Rural iVcw Yorker.
Jlr. John Greenfield brought autl
sold in Sabctba, the other day, five
hogs, six'months old, which kicked
tho beam at 1,396 pounds. If any ono
can beat that please report.
Fredeiick Behr, a German, living at

turing the base of his skull. Ho was
