The Currant.

THERE are few of the small fruits more
grateful to the palate, and perhaps none
so generally neglected. as the currant,
1t is an exceedingly gross feeder and to
insure the best results, even on rich
soils, liberal manuring should be rcsorted
to. Our plan, as with strawberries, is to
plant one-third of the area intended for
this fruit each year. grubbing up the old
plants after they have borne two full crops.
When you set the young plants which
may be obtained from cuttings of the pre-
vious year, dig good shovelful of com
post manure in each place where you set
plant, and when you cut out the old
wood after the iruiting season, fork in an
additional shovelful of manure about the
plant
The reason for removing the paintings
as heretofore noticed is that the borers do
not seriously injure the young plants, and,
by this renewal system, you always have
young, thrifty plants for fruiting. If the
borers do moi depredate upon your bushes
the surplus, if any, may be readily sold al
the nearest village, for Notwithstanding
or rather perhaps because of, the genera
neglect of this fruit, the best samples, az
with strawberries, always command ,
good price Western Rural.

Watering Newly-Planted Trees.

VERY many who plant trees suppose
that they must be watered at regular in
tervals. There could be no more errone-
Gus suppOsitiOn. The tree should be set
with care, watered if the ground be dry,
and the roots carefully covered and the
earth pressed carefully around them then,
after the water has entirely settled away,
the ground should be carefully leveled up
and the surface thoroughly mulched.
There is nothing further to be done, so far
as watering is concerned.
There is only one practice in transplant
ing trees which is more pernicious than
periodical waterings-and that is, cutting
the tree to bare pole at transplanting.
More trees are irreparably injured by this
severe cutting than by even the practice
Of setting intact as to the top and mutila-
tion by the roots, for if the tree have plen.
ty of buds to form leaves, the roots will
| Immediately follow, but if the top be
so severely cut as to present but few leaves
the root growth will be correspondingly
weakened, And if the leaf surface be en-.
tirely destroyed the tree must of necessity
die.
The principal difficulty in watering is
that enough water is not given at one
time, for by the process of watering super.
ficially the moisture does not reach the
roots at all, or if it do, only to such de-
gree as to induce the root growth to de.
yelop itself near the surface. This being
done, and drouths intervening in July and
August the tree suffers or perhaps per
ishes outright; or if ii do not and, under
the influence of moist season and the fal
and succeeding spring rains, this super
fetal root growth be continued the tree, /
it live, suffers the succeeding season, anC
lis permanently checked, if it do no

Grinding Edge.TooIs.

EDGE-TOoLs are fitted up by grinding,
very much as plank would be reduced
in thickness were large plane employed,
in which were set a hundred or more
very small gouges, each cutting narrow
groove. The sharp grit of the grindstone
being harder than the iron or steel, cuts
very small channels in the surface of the
metal, and the revolving disc carries
away all the minute particles that are de-
tached by the grit. If we were to eX-
anime the surface of tool that has Just
been removed from a grindstone, under
the microscope, it would appear, as it
were, like the rough surface of n field
which has recently been scaritied with
some implement which formed alternate
ridges and flIrrows. Hence, as these
ridges and furrows run together from
both Sides at the cutting edge, the newly
ground edge seems to he formed of a sys-
tenn of minute teeth, rather than to con.
sist of a smooth edge. For this reason,
tool is first ground on a coarse stone, so
as to wear the surface of the steel away
rapidly; then it is polished on wheel of
much finer grit, and finally, in order to
reduce the serraton as much rs possible
milestone of the finest grit must be en-
ployed. This gives IA cutting edge having
the smallest possible serration. a razor,
| for example, does not have perfect
cutting edge, as one may perceive by
! viewing it through microscope. And yet
the serrations are actually so much small
er than the human hair that the minute
teeth cut the hair in twain but when the
serrations on the edge of the razor become
so battered up and dull that they will not
sever Il hair, or cut a mans beard off, the
edge must be honed and strapped until
the system of minute teeth will be so much
smaller than hair that several Of them
will take hold of the smallest hair at once.
These suggestions will furnish something
of an idea of the operation in grinding
and whetting edge-tools.
Beginners are sometimes instructed
when grinding edge-tools, to have the
stone TevOlve toward the cutting edge
and sometimes from it. When the first
grinding is being done, it is matter Of
indifference whether this is done or not
but when the finishing touches are applied
near and at the very edge, grinder car
always complete his task with more accu
racy if the periphery of the grindstonC
revolves toward the cutting edge, as tn,
steel that is worn away will be removed
more easily; whereas, when a stone run
in the opposite direction, the grinder can
not always tell exactly when the side o
the tool is fully ground up to the edge
This is more especially true, when tn
steel has low or soft temper The stonC
when running from the edge, will nc
sweep away every particle of the metG
that hangs as " teather;n but when tn
stone revolves toward the edge, there wi
be no "leathered edge" to deceive the ey
of the grinder.-PdcJfc Rural Press,
