Budding Fruit Trees.

New York Examiner,
Now is the season to try your hand at bud
ding The proper period in this country is from
the first of July. to the middle of September.
There is hardly farm or village garden in the
country which has not a fruit tree of some kind,
which might not be improved by ''inoculationn
as the old writers called it, with some better vas
riety; and budding is so much easier, safer and
generally more convenient than grating, that
there is really no excuse for remaining content,
year after year, with the poorer sort, when the
better.can be had with so little trouble
There are various ways of budding practiced
in this country and abroad; but the whole,
the simplest and best method is that known as
American shield budding Get a thrifty shoot
that has nearly done growing, of the va
nety you wish to have, remove inn
perfect buds which will generally be found at
each end of the shoot, and cut off the leaves,
leaving portion of the foot-stalk about half an
inch long Provide yourself with budding
knife and with some strands of bass mating or
soft yarn Select smooth part Of the stock, on
the north side if possible, as to avoid exposure
to the direct rays OF the sun. Make an incision,
lengthwise of the stock or limb, an inch or an
inch and half long, and another cut across the
top of the first so as to form al Carefully
cut a bud from the shoot leaving thin slice of
wood and bark above and below the bud, cor
responding in length to the long cut in the stock
Then with the ivory end of the knife carefully
lift the bark on each side of the incision just
enough to admit the bud without forcing Slip
the bud in, fright side up cute the top of the
slice II 1T projects over the croSScut and then
with the bass strand or yarn cit quite firmly
above and below the bud, leaving only the latter,
exposed.
Foreign builders generally remove the woody
part from the under side of the bud But this
is an unnecessary and somewhat difficult opera
ton. liable to lnjure the bud, and exposing it in
our hotclimate tofatal drying.
The after treatment consists simply in watch
ing to see whether the bud is growing nicely.
and when that appears to be the case, looseIing
the bandage or removing it altogether if the
bud has clearly established itself in its new
home.
The buds to be used for this purpose are wood
buds, which grow singly in most trees, and lsss
plump and round than blossom buds. 1t issim-
possible, however, to bud with the latter and If
/ any Of our young friends wish to bud for fruit
/ they might try the experiment Get few fruit
buds oflsome superior pear or peach, insert
them AS already described, say IN September,
onsal thrifty bearing tree andperhaps next sea-
[ SON the fruit will come When one wishes for
an immediate result it is we'll to try this plan.
At any rate it is am interesting experiment. and
IL 1t falls. boys, it is no great matter ".ris

Melons and Cncumhars.

The greatest triumphs are attained
where difficulties most abound. They
bring out the full powers OF man.
English gardeners accomplish wonders
and are excelled only by the Scotch
whose climate is still darker and chillier
Melons, cucumbers, etc., can only be
grown there with the aid of glass and
artificial heat, and the ways of melons
are therefore watched with closer
observation than we care to give here
where we can let the vines ramble at
will i'll wide fields. They fill their
frames with vines and fruit by stop
ping, pinching the end of the first shoot,
and later of the second shoots, which
are guided by pegs, so as to evenly fill
the frame. These checks soon induce
numbers of flowers, and the fruits from
the female flowers are thinned when as
large as walnuts, leaving only four or
five on each plant. Much warm water is
poured over the leaves and all, through
the rose of watering pot, early in the
evening, before closing the frames; but,
as the fruits approach ripening, only light
sprinkling is given to keep the leaves
green and healthy. In hot, sunny
weather this is given mornings and even
ings. Cumbers delight similarly in warm,
moist air.-IF., Tyrone, Pa.
