Theory and Practice or Budding
The New York Tribune says |;

IL
1.-The reason for budding is found in
the fact that whatever growth issues
from the bud inserted will be exactly
the same in all respects Of shape, leaf
and fruit as the tree from which the bud
was taken. This is the reason, too, why
watchful care is used to rub off every
natural bud to the stalk, so as to make
the whole growth pour through this one
channel of the inserted bud To make
this easier the stalk is cut down to just
above the bud before growth opens in the
spring, and three or four dis-buddings
follow each other through May and June,
until the new channel of growth has
enlarged sufficiently to receive all the
root supply, and the stalk ceases to push
Its own growth.
'fAs to the practical phase Of the SUBJ
Ject, we may say that although a peach
bud may be cut and inserted and tied
closely and securely in a few seconds,
IL is NOS easy to describe the process
without visual illustration All books
on horticulture, however, give illustra-
tive cuts. The principal conditions Of
success are thrifty stocks TO bud into !;
in full growth for some length of time,
so a. to have a rich cambium layer un-
der the bark, almost ready to crystalize
into wood and bark In the latter part
of August, or early September this ia
vorable season IL at its best. The stick
of buds should be taken from a strong
leader, grown in full light, with large
healthy leaves. and plump, sharp point
ed buds The smaller shoots have only
flower buds generally, and will not de-
velop leaves or wood growth. The
triple buds always consists Of wood
bud III the midle and flower bud on
each Of it.
1T is best that the shoot from which
the buds are to be sliced should be some
what hrmer than the stock that Is to re-
cieve them If not so firm, the little
slice Of wood that Is pared off with the
bud, beibg prone 10 decay, Is usually
twitched out after the bud is sliced off,
and in he instant, as it were, Of its pass
age into the position under the ready
loosened bark. Firm buds can be set
much the most rapidly, as there is no
delay either to loosen and lift the bark
excepting just at the outer section of
the T-like cut through it, nor to take
out the chip Of. wood. The wound will
heal and the parts unite before this bit
of wood can enter upon decay lift has
some degree Of ripene-s, it will be sealed
up and secure a. little mummy, TO be
visible years afterward, dead but not
decayed, If a dissection Of the part is
made

to the criminal glasses, of ono Of the
bioodiest episodes of . desperete fight.
Before the victory was finally ad-
judged to the Zephyr his antagonist
was in . terribly bruised and battered
condition. It was necessary to "sow up"
his legs, so seriously were they wounded,
and it is surprising that he escaped with
his life. According to what is evidently
tho barbarous custom of the ring, the vic
tor was decorated with ribbons "run
through the neck" and "the bottom of
each leg" In this condition the Zephyr
was carried away by his exulting hackers,
while the wretched SaxOny Wool was
probably hooted At and insulted. The
police, as usual, did not lift . finger to
prevent this disgusting fight from taking
place, and up to the present time neither
the principals nor those who witnessed the
battle have been arrested. A more dis
graceful affair has seldom, if ever, occur
red in the whole history of the American
prize-ring.
What is to be thought Of . paper, osten-
sibly designed for boys and girls, which
deliberately places before its young read
ers such an article as the infamous descrip-
ton of the prize-fght between the Zephyr
and Saxony Wool? There is no possible
excuse which can be accepted for such con.
duct as this, and it ought to cause the
expulsion of the Tribune from every
nursery and female seminary in which il
it has hitherto been tolerated.

IT is said by those who ought to know,
that the letter published in the Kewau-
nee Enterprise does not really state that
he is not candidate for governor. Gabe
wrote about something else not at oil
connected with the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. The editor Of the Enterprise
showed the thing to his friends always
prefacing the act by the inquiry, "What
in hell's this" Some capital Joker stated
solemnly after looking at the four corners
of the letter in imitation of Wanda
when at the seige of Front de Boefo Cas-
tie, that sit was a declination," and the
young editor gave form to that which
was without form and it became the let
ter credited to Gabe. Gabe wrote to in
quire the price of pease.
