The Pleasant Art OF Grating.

THERE is not one among all the proc
esses of agriculture that is capable of
yielding SO rich return for trifle of
trouble as the grating of a wild tree
with fruitful and enjoyable variety.
One minute will suffice for the grating
of the top of young Seeding, and this
its whole nature, and of all its produce,
throughout the ten, twenty or fifty
years Of its future growth and fruitage.
Every boy should learn to graft. 1t is
one of the simple, useful, practical and
everywhere practicable things that should
be part of common school instruction.
The writer once knew some young
women who could pare and set graft
OF bud neatly, and with entire sue
cess, and who took pride and pleasure
in practicing the art. Grating will
probably be attended with more than
usual success this spring, because of
the mildness of the winter, leaving the
wood unhurt for those who did not ex-
ercisc, at an earlier date, fOrethOught
enough to cut and store the scions.
Young practitioners may find some
hints useful, and here are few, in ad-
Lition to the excellent ones given last
month by Mr.. Smedley:
Choose sound. firm, ripe shoots,
grown in full light, for the scions, and
let them be entirely dormant when cut
and set. With the cherry and plum it
is indispensable to graft before the buds
swell in the least; apple and pear will
do much later, but all make more
growth from the graft, and fewer wild
shoots below and around it, if set quite
early. The risk with early grating is
from dry March winds parching the
graft, while it as yet receives little
moisture from the scarcely started
ascending flow of watery sap. This is
prevented by using sound scions, by
protecting them with film of wax or
fillet of paper, and by using thicker
wax and tying it IN place SO that it can
not become in the least detached, to
admit dessicating air. A temperature
of so to 60 dogs. and dry weather are
most favorable for the operation. The
wax should be made of such a temper
as to work nicely at that temperature;
not so soft as to be very sticky, nor so
hard as not to stick or not to manipu-

tough putty in the temperature of
ordinary spring water. There must be
no free grease or oil to stop or enter the
pores of the bark.
Whip or splice grating is the most
convenient and the safest. 1t is prac-
ticed ON small shoots Of the size of a
large or small lead pencil. The wax is
| then applied from roll of strips of
half-worn muslin soaked in it while
melted by moderate heat. A piece is
taken long enough for each graft; a
strip one-quarter to one-half inch wide
and two to three inches long, wrapped
on spirally, will completely cover and
secure the joined parts. A good small
knife, the roll Of waxed cloth and the
scions are all that need be carried. But
q few strings, hone or fine milestone,
and register for entering the names,
ETC., should be part Of the outfit.-N

Tlllage for Corn.

WE think the question of deep or
shallow blowing is pretty definitely set
tied, so far as our ordinary prairie soils
are concerned, in favor of shallow
blowing. That is: six inches may be
taken as the maximum depth at which
to pillow for the best results in raising
corn. The best time, however, for
blowing is one wherein many farmers
make q mistake. Very often the land
is plowed too wet. When this is the
case, no amount of surface labor will
bring the soil to good condition. In
nine cases out of ten when the land is
fall plowed, and the surface thorough
ly stirred in the spring, when dry, and
planted without replowing, . better
crop Of corn will be realized than if the
crop be planted on fresh plowed land,
if the blowing be done while the land
is wet. This is especially true if trash
or manure has been plowed under in
the fall.
It is q mistake to suppose that q soil
should lie very soft to reach the best
results in tillage; on the other hand it

were hung about it, and all was ready
for the play, with little trouble or ex-
pense.
Young boys followed the players and
joined their companies to perform the
female parts In the drama, for no
women appeared upon the stage in En-
gland until q century later.
About the middle of Queen Eliza
beth's reign the first theatcr was erect
ed, at Blackfriars, in the neighberhood
of an old monastery from which it took
its name.
The cheaper seats were not at first
covered by roof, SO that the people
who sat in them were sometimes
drenched with rain while witnessing a
performance. The fine gentlemen of
the court and the rich tradespeople
were given seats upon the stage, or
rushes and mats to lounge upon

The Drama Before Shakespeare's Day.

BEFORE the invention of printing,
few people among the lower classes
could read; and therefore, when, in a
little town, it was announced that
representation of certain parts of
Scripture history would be given, the
people eagerly locked to see it.
These Representations were known
by different names -"mysteries,
smiracles plays, !" moralities," etc.
and frequently clergymcn themselves
took part. Sometimes q herald or
crier would 60 through the town giving
notice when and where and how the
performance was to take place; if it
rained, they waited till the next fine
day, for the play was usually given in
the open air, a sort of platform being
erected for the players, who were fire.
quently obliged, on coming before the
audience, to explain who they were; for,
of course, at that early day, there could
be no theatrical scenery, or what are
now known as stage accessories to
help them.
Fancy yourself sitting ON one of
those rough benches in q village
street crowded with people ON Henry
the Seventies day. All eyes are eager
ly strained towards the little platform;
the figure Of an old man appears; there
is so little in his dress or manner to in
dictate who he is, that either he HIM
self, or the person stationed just below
for that purpose, has to announce that
he is Moses, or Pharoah, or Herod as
the case may be. He goes through
certain performances, the other char
acters joining in ~ they are needed to
tell his story. Meanwhile the specta-
tor has to use all his mind to rouse his
imagination and I'LL up the picture.
Certain wooden figures were always
kept by the performers in these .mys-
teries," - we'll IS in the pageants, and
played an important part in the spec

effect upon these willing audiences; for
