Bones FOR GRAPE VINEs-P0pular
Gardening says the man who throws
plenty Of bones in the hole when
he sells ont his grape vines will be
astonished at their extra yigor over
those vines where no bones were
used, and also at the way that Wig
or will be maintained for years af
forwards. The editor says he has
repeatedly called attention TO the
great waste indulged in by many
people: who suffer quantities Of
bones as they come from the kitch-
en- to lie about the premises unu-
tilted. Bury them rear your
grape vines by all means. This
advice is d~ecidededly good, but TOR
the best results we would recon-
mend always breaking the bones
as finely as possible before burying
them. The plant can feed on the
bone only as decomposition takes
place, and this only takes place at
the surface. About twenty years
will be required to completely rot a
large and unbroken bone. Breaking
gives 1t more exposed surface, and
hence hastens decomposition.
The work of breaking may be per-
formed with an old axe on a stump
or log, when nothing better is at
hand. 1t will always pay well.

Some dealers buy these poor
limitations for few cents less and

strong blankets to parties who do
not know the difference.
You cannot tell whether horse
blankets are strong by the look

not show on the face. How then
are you to know?
