part the former may be short

right direction into the weaker

Keeping the Head Clean.

The following suggestion is
worth needing: A dintinguisil-
ed physician who hael spent
much time at quarantine said
that person whose head was
thoroughly washed every day
rarely took contagious diseases;
but where the hair was allowed
to become dirty and II, atted, it
was hardly possible to escape
infection. Many persons find
speedy relief for the nervous
headache by washing the hair
thoroughly in weak soda water.
| have known severe cases al
most wholly cured in ten min
utes by this simple ren,edy. A
friend finds it the gretest relief,
in cases of "rare cold," the cold
symptoms entirely lea wing the
eyes and nose after crne thor
ough washing of the h;.ir. The
head should be thoroug bly, dried
afterwards, and avoid draughts
of air for a little while.

GOING INTO DEBr.--Going in
debt was very common habit
a few pears ago. 1t was alto
gether too common, among
farmers. 1t is not so common
now. Farmers have seen the
evil of it. They have seen it is
much easier to get into debt
than it is to get out of it. 1t is
like getting into q.lick-sand.
Every effort to get out only
sinks one deeper. The cash
system is far better. 1t makes,
one more economical. 1t is
better to deprive on rselves of
luXuries, than to pay too dearly
for them afterwards. pay as
you go is the true philosophers
stone. 1t is better for buyer
and better for seller. The sell
err can take less profits, as he has
no bad debts. The buyer can
hold high head for he owes no
one that he can't pay.

HOME AND FARM.
GRATING.

Contrary TO the general opinion
this is an exceedingly simple
operation, and one wholly within
the range of the most ordinary
ability to perform. 1t consists.
essentially, in bringing into con-
tact portions of living shoots,
so that the bark of the two may
coincide and grow together.
The scion should be of the pro-
ceeding seasons growth and cut
to two buds.
There are many forms Of
grating and different modes Of
operation, but the principle is
always the same. The sap YES
sells Of the graft and ofthe stock
or plant to be grated must be
so adapted to each other that
the sap can flow uninterrnptedly
from the one to the other. The
work may be performed at any
season of the year when scions,
in a suitable condition, can be
obtained, but the best time, in
the lower South, is from the
middle of February to the mid
die of March-the stone fruits
first, the apple and pear little
later.
Cleft-grafting, as it is called,
is the most common form in
practice, and probably the most
simple. 1t is adapted to both
small and large trees. On the
latter, it enables us to form en-
tirely new heads, thus rendering
otherwise worthless seedlings
even more valuable than trees
grated in the nursery. This is
the way it is done: Cut off the
stock sauarely, using saw or a
knife, according to its size; pare
the end smoothly; split it down
from one to two inches, insert
the scion, the lower end of which
must be cut in the form of
wedge, SO that the inner banks
of the two exactly meet; if the
stock be small, tie it to keep
the scion in place; cover the
head of the stock and the crack
carefully with grating wax, and
the work is done. In grating
large stocks wedge is required
to keep the cleft open till the
scion is put in its place. and
sometimes two gratis are insert
ed, one on each side, the weak
er one to be cut off ifboth take.
Splice grating is commonly
resorted to for small seeding
stocks. Cut the stock with a
sharp knife. obliquely upward
without bruising or starting the
bark, and the scion downward,
with corresponding angle, to
make the two parts fit nicely,
care being taken that the inner
barks ofthe stocks and scion
exactly meet. Then lay the
parts together, and bind them
snugly with a strand of mating,
or bear grass leaf, and cover
the splice with grating wax or
clay. TO shield it from the air
and water. Root grating is
simply one or the other of the
ioEgoing forms. applied to seed
ing stocks taken up and cut

Distances for Grapes.
Country Gentleman.

Country CENTENNIAL
The strong growing American
grapevine must have ample
space to grow. They may be
restricted for a few years and
bear moderate crops, but when
they are older they should have
a full chance to throw out their
long arms. The late w. A. I'm
deIhill, of Croton Point, N. Y,
showed US part of his twenty
year Isabella vineyard where he
had allo we'd the vines to extend
over a roadway, giving them IS
feet more room. The improve
ment in the crop was striking.
Mr.. A. Hood, of Ontario, plant
ed Concords 6 feet apart each
way; they bore little fruit the
spring of the 9TH year he took
out every alternate vine, and
then had a fine crop. He tried
a similar experiment on a large
Catawba vineyard planted s feet
apart; the result was greatly
increased quantity Of grapes
He also stated that Concord
vines covering "a to 48 feet trel-
lis, carried by actual measure
ment more grapes than any ad-
joining vines IL feet apart and
occupying the same extent of
trellis. An experienced grape
grower has just stated to us that
he had planted his vines II feet
apart and had grated every al
ternate vine with another sort.
The gratis failed to grow, and
the old vines, being thus Trimmed
to one-half in number, gave a
much better crop than the whole
did before. We might cite many
other cases-all showing the i'm
poFtance of giving ample space
to strong growers. And one
other precaution should always
be observed-never to allow the
vines to overflow; thin out the
numerous punches. We do not
hear vineyardists, as formerly,
boast of the many tons of grapes
they have raised to the acre, as
they have learned that the fruit
IS better, and the vines less ex- /
hausted, when the thinning has |
been properly done.

HEPDISe HORSES.

OF the chances for business.
we know of nothing in these
days that offers more for less
capital than herding horses in
Texas.
A person having five thous-
and dollars could go into some
good section of Kansas and buy
ten good Morgan horse colts for
$1,000. In certain parts ofTex-
as he could buy $50 selected
herd mares for $1,000, leaving
81 900 for expenses. He would
have zoo horses to begin with
and perhaps 425 in the fall.
Selling his wild colts TO the
ncrthward and buying for the
money as many half bred mare
colts from the southwark, and
exchanging some of his Nor
gan horses for their value in
Texas mares, he could very
rapidly increase his stock, say
thirty per cent per annum.
At the same time, he could
improve its qnality by getting in
more and more OF working
blood and by breaking his
stock and by regularly driving
it to and from its feeding
ground.
The difference between dog
and a wolf-between a horse
and a mustang lies chiefly in
the breaking. Here is a chief
loss in the raising of horses in
herds. 1t would be perfeet thy
easy for the herdmen on a
rancho to break al the horses
raised, if they were set about it.
When done by wholesale, horse
breaking is simplihed like other
business. Put on the colts rope
nose halters, with the ends
hanging down, and they will
soon halter break themselves.
Then put on biting. straps and
let them run-In an enclosure
and this will do much more
for them. Let them wear
harness with breeching and run
around in a circle frame, and
they will pc prepared to be driv-
en- and broken with compare tive
ease. Let them be hanclled
in turn by the herdmen as they
herd the stock, and their sass.ble
value would be doubled.

HARTFORD.
Evidence Of Growth and Prosperity.

Evidence Of Growth and Prosperity.
During day spent at Hartford last
week we found the town stirring and
numerous evidences Of improvement on
every hand. A number of new build
ings, both for residence and business
purposes, have gone up this spring;
and the merchants report a fine trade
from the country surrounding. A call
on Mr.. Thomas Campbell, the efficient
and accommodating postmaster, found
him at work experimenting the erection
of good residence. The firm of Camp
bell & Brogan, have also just moved
their business building TO a more eligi-
BILE location, and with their line of gen.
eral merchandise, are always ready TO
supply the wants of the public, and
judging from our experience the public
will find them very pleasant and oblig-
ing gentlemen.
NJ. s. Cowles & Co., also carry good
stock, and we learn are talking of ex-
tensiye Improvements.
w. j. Combs, who, by the way, is both
j. p, and school district treasurer. is
carrying on the business of cabinet max
er and undertaken, making specially
at present of the latter business. He is
occupying a new building, and expects
to enlarge his stock as fast as his trade
will warrant.
Rambo s. Son have openedO stock
of hardware and agricultural impli-
ments, and also occupy store room
erected this season.
w. p. Gould, one of the cold guard"
and staunch friend of the NEWS, is
still at his post, and seems to be doing
good business in the hardware line.
Drs. Reser s. Sutton, of the Hartford
drug store, we found both absent on
professional business. They were, how
ever, well represented by Mr.. Duckett,
from whom we learned that the Hart
ford dramatic club had just raised q
fund for the building of new side
walks, and are now planning an enter
tainment with view to purchasing in
struments for brass band.
Mr.. T. A. Rogan, who is now conduct
ing a private school of about fifty pupils,
the public school having closed for the
season, is building very neat, and well
planned story and half house, pre-
sumably '..t0r rent". MI. Rogan's school
is under excellent management, he be-
ing an earnest and professional teacher
The new bridge and the Touring mills
were points of interest we did not take
in, but we learn that county commits
sioner Taylor is at present absent on a
trip to st. Louis.
We are under obligations to Mr.. C. P.
Burlington, of the Enterprise, for favors
shown. Mr.. Burlington regards Hart
ford as strategic point and seems to be
receiving liberal patronage. Hartford
has good citizens, and though not des-
tined, we think, to become great COM
mercial emporium, it has fair prospect
of growth, coed country surrounding
and will remain thriving and flourish
ing town.
