Cutting Scions,

Scons may be cut at any time from October TO
the time of setting. They generally do as well to
cut them two or three weeks before setting if we'll
set they will succeed if cut at the time of setting
provided the grating is done before they begin 10
grow. When cut in the fall, before the ground
freezes, the better way is 20 bury them or in
ches deep in light soil and in the shade
When cut at this season, they should be wrapped
in damp mating, rug other thick cloth, laid in
a close box, and examine them occasionally to see
that the mat is kept damp They keep better when
a large lot are kept together. There is an adyant-
age in having long time cut scions in, it is
often convenient 10 collect some long before the
time of setting. The rule which some persons
have for cutting scions setting trees at some par
ticular point of time. has very dscouraging effect;
as it induces some who cannot attend TO ii al the
right time, they consider it, to neglect it alto.
