Care of Apple Trees.

Country Gentleman.
The present is good time to trim apple trees.
When the object is to raise a good crop of ex-
cellent quality, trim the trees in the month of
October or November. In October. before the
leaves fall, one can easily pick out the diseased
limbs by the leaves, which are not so thrifty in
appearance and also by their color. Cut out
all such limbs this autumn. If the tree has
borne fruit largely, and the top has stopped
growing, and few sprouts have started from
the main limbs. leave part of them which start
out on the upper side of the limb to make
new top. In q few years you can
improve your trees in thrift and bearing condi-
tions. Where the trees are from eight inches
to fifteen inches through, and have been largo
bearers, and the owner intends to graft the next
year, they should have all sickly limbs trimmed
out this month. Leave some thrifty sprouts
that grow on the upper side of the limbs, for
such make a stronger tree and better bearer.
Regarding the varieties to graft, the grower
should be governed by the market to which he
sends his fruit. When the native tree bears APP
pies which have any bitter taste in them the
CRATER should use scions from some kind that
has a strong acid taste, like the Baldwin Never
use sweet scions or those of a mild sour, for
those do not exercise so strong an influence over
the tree.

Cuttings or Slips.


When 1 was boy nearly everything was in
creased from Slips and am not sure that the
more modern and now general practice of taking
cuttings is more successful than the old plan of
slipping off short axillary roots with a heel, in
stead of cutting them with knife. If ever
feel the least doubtful as to which method is
BEST try both ways, and after some little ex-
perience in this line Il find the balance
in favor of the slips. Milky plants,
such as euphorbia jacquini@fora, often
fail as cuttings. but short growths
stripped off grow we'll Pinks, carnations. cloves
and mule pinks. oposma tauricum. small veroni-

slips under cap-glasses or haud-lights on a sandy
border. Hollow stalked pansy cuttings general
ly fail to grow, but the same growths slipped off
at the crown and inserted deeply in sandy soil
grow quite freely OF course, facilities for the
roofing of cuttings are now greatly improved,
yet for hardy plants. more especially. believe
we might return to the old-fashioned habit OF
planting slips of many things with advantage,
and especially when cuttings have been tried and
failed.
