Crab Stocks.

c. G. Patten, Charles City, Iowa,
says at was stated at the meeting of
our State Horticultural Society. at Des
Moines, last week, that several years
since the Siberian crab was tried for
grating the apple upon, and abandon
ed. Ifso, please tell me why, and If
carefully experimental with. was
going to graft sixty thousand on such
stock this winter"
The Siberian crab, as stock for
grating, has had thorough trial In
northwestern Vermont, and has proved
utterly unsuccessful for the production
of serviceable orchard trees. They
grow well for few years, but as soon
as they come into bearing they begin to
fail. The sale of such trees. at high
prices, has been great injury In every
respect, and in neighborhoods where
they have been set long enough for the
people to become acquainted with
them, similar trees cannot he given
away. Indeed, the bitterness of feeling
among many purchasers is such, that
personal violence Is sometimes threat
ened against agents Of the nursery from
which they have principally original
ed. Yet we have no doubt the man
who first introduced them honestly
thought they were good thing. DIR

Experiments in Pruning.

James Rldpath, of Buchanan county,
Iowa, tried an experiment to determine
the time of year at which wounds made
in pruning are covered best and most
speedily. A branch one inch in diane
ter was cut from a tree of Rawle's Janet
on the first day of each month in the
year, and at the end of five years, when
all were healed over, they were opened
and found to have decayed the least in
those cut In February and March, Tor
just before the swelling of the buds, }
and most in those cut in June and July,
Tor during the growing season, } while
the latter had the advantage Of being
closed one year the earliest. Another
similar experiment was tried on the
Yellow Bellflower, and Mt the end of
four years all were healed over; Oh
openiDr the places where pruned, the
same result was found. except slight
difference in favor of February and
July. In these experiments, the decay
from summer pruning was about three
times as extensive us from that per-
formed in the winter months. iool
pruning fol dwarfs always ruined the
constitution OF the tree.

"If your State did not have the reputation Of
being 'Grasshoppered' every year, would have

Missouri River Railroad Company
There is a great deal of truth bottled up in this
confession, Men from Illinois and other States
who come to Nebraska and examine for them
selves, go away convinced of the fact, that the
Grasshopper is by no means as destructive as the
Chinch Bug, they see that the stories they have
heard are either wholly false or greatly exagger-
ated, and they realize that IN the young State of
Nebraska men can raise bigger crops, and make
moro money than they can further east notwith.
standing that we do have an occasional Grass
hopper to worry us.
The Grasshopper troubles of the past two yeals
have done III no damage of any consequence,
and everything goes to prove the truth of what
Professor Riley says, which is, that Grasshoppers
will only trouble Nebraska once or twice in
long series of years, and that year by year the
chances of our being troubled will grow less =
