cannot understand why nurserymen
persist in propagating the apple almost ex-
clusively by root graft, unless it be because
it is so much move rapid, cheap and conVe-
nient than any other mode. AS long ago
as 1854. Mr.. E. r. Elliot said in his Wes-
tern Fruit Book
Grating on small pieces Of roots may
answer for the gro wing of varieties in the
nursery but very few, when removed, are
found to have made much but small fbrous
roots, and when planted in the orchard, re
quire stalking for years. and rarely eve
make good trees. The practice has been
largely followed, but is now condemned
by most nurserymen, and that of grating
on the whole of a root advised
I will add, before closing, that the use Of
gratis or scions taken from young nursery
trees that have never borne fruit, or ''water
eprouts,, from older tress, is also, in my o.
pinion, prominent cause of sterility of
those young orchards. and this opinion is
the result Of observation and experience.
If nurserymen can successfully contradict
anything have said, they of course are
at liberty to do so.

COn.,i,ion OF RuaIness.

(From the NeD York Daily Buuean.)
The anticipations of an active fall
trade are to a fair extent being realized.
During the last few weeks business has
steadily improved, and there is now a
reasonable demand for and good trade
in all articles of general consumption.
The West ia taking large amounts Of
goods, and dealers are purchasing free
Iy, Southern buyers are also here, and
in greater force than at any period since
1860 81 replenishing their stocks. In
dividuaI purchases are for the most
part for limited amounts, a fact that
insidates the degree of caution still
characterizlng business. But the ag-
gregate of sales is large, and our city
merchants are rejoicing in a better
trade than they have known for sever
al wears. or course there is nothing
like the heavy movement that distin-
guished former prosperousyears Deal
ers exhibit an evident carefulness to
limit their purchases to the more i'm
mediate wants OF local trade. But as
the supply of goods both In the West
and South is unusually small, consum-
ers having for a long time been able
10 make only the most pressing pur-
chasers, the activity that now prevails
is regarded as by no means 6pasmodic,
and more healthy business than has
been known for several years.
A marked feature ofthe merchandise
market is the general contraction OF
credits. OF course drst-class houses
can obtain all the credit they please,
but the liberal terms offered to them by
our leading firms generally lead them
to choose cash terms or short time that
| is almost equivalent to cash purchases.
The fact is, It has ceased 10 be rePuta-
BILE tor merchants of any class 70 trans .
act business entirely on credit as in
| former times: The consequence Is tnat
buyers make smaller and more ire
| quent purchases, and thus the business
Is more evenly distributed over tne
whole season. The long creolts OF tne
mast seern to have given way to more
/ healthy cash or short time" business.
and both dealers and consumers VIII
| doubtless find this arrangement to be
more profitable and Satisfactory.
