Begging Grapes.

Correspondence Philadelphia Press.
We have for several years past practiced COW
ering clusters of grapes with small paper bags,
such as grocers in putting up small pur-
chases. We usually place these bags on the
grapes when about half grown, fastening them
with pin. having first drawn the top of the bag
about the stem closely, and having slit the lower
corner of the bag with knife to let out any
water that might gather in the bag during a rain.
Our object in bagging grapes is to preserve spec
linens of the different varieties in the best pos
sible condition. In localities where rot is preva-
lent bags are used for the purpose of preventing
rot, with good results. We find that these paper
bags cause the grapes to mature from week
to ten days earlier than ordinary. ~
The grapes reach a higher perfection
of color and quality in the bags than without.
The bloom, which is prominent feature in the
grape is undisturbed in the bags, and is appar-
emily more noticeable when thus protected. The
only specimens of Lady Washington grapes we
have ever succeeded in ripening on our farm
were those Enclosed in paper bags, as it has been
proven toe late for this locality It's surprising
to learn how many grapes may be bagged in a
day by skillfui person, who is quick -motioned
The expense, however, is worth considering, and

The Production of Flax.


A noteworthy feature of agriculture in tha
West this year, is the great increase in the pro-
duction of fax. The receipts Of faxseed in Chi
cago during October aggregated 1875, 900 bush
els of fifty six pounds each, and in one week of
the month the receipts of the seed exceeded
those of wheat For the first three months OK
the current crop year, the receipts were nearly
1900 900 bushels larger than in the same months
of 1884, and the shipments were nearly as much
in excess of those of the corresponding
time last year. A quarter of a million
bushels have already been exported, and
much more has been ordered for Europe, whsrs
the American seed is supplanting the crop OF
British India The immediate cause of tho
increase in production is the low price Of wheat
last fall and winter which discouraged many
farmers to the future of that grain and in-
duced them to try the raising of fax. The seed
brings good prices, and the great danger is taat
the success of the experiment will tempt too
many farmers to 60 into the business next year.
Flax exhausts the soil very rapidly, and few
crops Of it will leave farmer with his land
badly worn out. Itw 1T be strange if tho
Western farmers who find themselves in
the end badly of their New England
brethren, who twent, Ars ago were induced
to go into tobacco raising by the high prices
which the crop commanded. and before longdis-
covered that their land would not produce u
crop without such quantity Of fertilizers an
made it hard to raise anything proftably.

less -four should be used when new -four is
used in making the sponge and dough,
although the yeast should be much stronger
than that used with mixed -four, and
the quantity of salt should be doubled to bind
the dough; the result will be bread that can
scarcely be distinguished from that made OF Old
