CmsEsE MgIsEa.s.-Although defo!iationl
might injure or destroy some trees and veget-
ables, the leaves being to the vegetable what
lungs and stomach are to animal life, it does
not follow that all trees and vegetables suf-
fer alike by defoliation. The grasses, the box,
the willow, and some others, may be cut,
headed down, or the leaves plucked, almost
for an indefinite period, without effecting
destruction. Do not old pastures produce
better and sweeter grasses by frequent CROP
ping, than when first laid down! Shall i'll
then be thought wonderful that the Chinese!
Morus Multicauls will bear defoliation sew
eral times during the same season? From
experiments already made, it appears that
this valuable plant has been plucked of its(
leaves for feeding worms, not less than four
or five times without any injury to its growth,
but the leading shoots must not be topped
and every successive crop Of leaves are
improved in number and weight. At the
same time, the wood is acquiring hardness for
future use. If the object be the formation
Of wood then take off the leading end of the
tree or shoot. Another excelIency of the
Chinese mulberry is the richness Of It's leaf
for feeding worms--while 100 pounds Of
white mulberry leaves are required to feed
worms sufficient to make one bushel Of CO.
coons, IS to 80 Of the Morus MulticauIis will
do the same thing; and while it is full DAYS
work to PICK 100 pounds Of white mulberry
Eleaves-with the same labor 500 pounds Of
the Moruss MulticauIis might be collected.
And while it is generally allowed that it re-
quires about 5000 worms fed on white null
berry to make one bushel of cocoons, the
} year been made with 1000 worms fed with
the Chinese mulberry.-( Northampton Cour.
