Budding.

Almost all intelligent farmers know how
to graft, and large numbers employ that
knowledge in springtime to put a good
head ON wild tree or to change the char
acter Of one to something more desirable.
But the spring is generally crowded with
work. Few get done what they desired
and intended to do; and among the put-oH
things very likely of all others will be the
grating Job. Something Of this can be
made up at this season by budding or in
oculation as it is sometimes called. 1t
does not find the same favor with farmers
as il does with nurserymen, because no
time seems to be gained over grating six
months hence: for the buds put in now do
not push into growth till the next spring
season.
If gratis are put in next year they grow
Immediately and make stronger growths
and form a good head much sooner than
buds put in at this season will. But then
there Is the question of time. II one waits
for spring it may never be done This is
comparatively leisure season, and a tree
budded now is done with. 1t will keep on
growing and will certainly beat the tree
that never Is done!
Budding is so simple an operation and
has been over and over again described in
the papers and most persons who are like
ly to be benefited by this article know how
| il is done. A piece of bark containing
| leaf-stalk and the eye at its base is simply
| put under the bark of the stock to be i'm
| proved, and which has been slit and
lifted" or loosened by the back of knife
for the purpose. After insertion the bud
| is tied firmly in. Anyone can understand
| this. and only experiment will teach more.
| But there is one thing which all builders
do not understand, and we will explain
why even some good hands fail in their
work The branch on which the bud is
TO go must be thrifty, vigorous and in
every way healthy, or the buds will not
take"
Failure in most cases comes from this
1t does not make much difference whether
the branch 10 be operated on is more than
one year old, so that the bark separates
