Some little care snd .,,s,,I : ton is however, necessary else. however good the seeds may be, 60 far as germ;na- ton IS concerned, the plants produced may nor pc oi the kind desired or expected.--- Nearly ail are aware that when plants arc so situated, that the pollen or fecundating aust oi tue blossom of one variety is coY- veyed to the flower of another variety of the same species, 3 cross will be the result. and the vegetable will be hybrid. hav- ing mixture of the qualities of both, per- haps, but unlike either. It is owing to this easily understood cause, that the seeds of the apple, peach, cherry, potatoe, and other fruits and plants 50 rarely produce trees or plants like the original ones. It IS this disposition to mix which is to bo guarded against, and a few simple rules will enable my farmer to do this effectnaIly. Besls are plani frequently iniured bv lpEnting different kinds for seed near encii other. Thus the red and white will pre- duce plants neither red nor white, and fre- quently efen inferior qualify.

 Cabbages of different varieties are very sure to cross with each other when planted together, producing plants like neither of the original kinds. One of the most serious injuries result ing from this tendency, is found to arise when cahbages and turnips intended for seed are planted near each other. The

 cabbages produced from such seed will nos head well; and the turnips, instead of.fine, round bulbs with small tufts ofleaves, will be sprn,opnted with cabbage like stem, an immense quantity of leaves, and the roots themselves will be more or less tough and woody in their structure.

 F Potatoes ofseveral kinds may Dc planted with impnnity near each other, as they are not usually grown from the seeds, but al- most always from the tubers, and these are not affected by the fecundating process. | We not unfrequently hear complaints from farmers and others about their seed changing into differeat and a worse kind. By d little attention to the above sugges- lions, this difficulty might be avoided, and good seeds grown by every one. The most perfect plants should be selected for plant- ing out for seed l; and where this is done, and mixture with other kinds is avoided, a change for tho worse need not be feared. F 9 Genssee Farmer. l Manufactory of Pins.-On visit to Derby l. some weeks since, had the pleasure of irl-s specting the Pin Manufactory of Dr. Howe. The apparatus in which the pins are made is a ewinvention of the Doctors, and is one of the most ingenious and beautiful piecss of mechanism in the whole circle of the arte.- It is impossible for me to give you any ade- quate description oft. Those who have any fondness for mechanical ingenuity must sec it for themselves. Generally, may state, | that the wire from which the pins are to be made is passed in at one end of the machine. cut into the requisite lengths, and passed from point to point till the pins are headed, gpaund, and fitted for the process of silvering md putting up. The whole operation may be distinctly seen, and as one pair of forceps cult to believe that the machine itself is not an intelligent being. The pins are all of one solid piece of wire, and possess an advan- tage in this respect over these in which the head is wound on, and thus liable to come of, ! often to the great inconvenience of tender fingers. The process is extremely rapid. think that Dr. Howe informed me that ono machine would make +, 900 pins in II hours; and a new machine, which he had just put into operation, would make 27,OOO in the same time formerly itrequired several men to make one pin-one to head 1t, one to points it, &c.-and then only a few thousand could be made in day but one man will super \ intend twelve of these machines, and, af the lowest estimate, manufacture 20O,OOO daily!
