Root Crafts and Whole Roots.

Professor Budd says on this most vexed
question: "A duchess or any other abso-
lutely hardy variety will make a good
tree if grown from cutting, and when
grated on short piece of root it prac-
tically is cutting, as the piece of root
only starts it, and roots are thrown out
always from the cion. Fully 80 per
cent. of our s year-old apple, pear, cherry
and plum tfee"s are on their own roots If
they have been grated with long cion
on a short root and set deeply. Yet the
crown graft is the best, and nursery
men could afford to make onfy one tree
from one Seeding. But the whole root
idea is nonsense, as it would have to be
set with crowbar if put down deep
enough to cause it to emit roots from the
cion, as all our trees should do"

AMERICAN BREEDS OF POULTRY.
A Brief Description of tho Dominiques,
Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes.

A Brief Description Of tho Dominiques,
Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes.
The popularity Of the American breeds
is such as to justify more than passing
notice. These are emphatically general
purpose fowls, and are particularly priced
by those who keep poultry in small
way for home consumption. The Ameri-
can Dominiques are an old fashioned
breed and less talked about than either
the Plymouth Rocks or Wyandottes. 1t
remains a fact, however, that they are
all among the best, hardest and comeli-
est of fowls. They are good layers and
good mothers. They are also fair table
fowls.
The Plymouth Rocks are too well
known to require lengthy description.
For general purposes there is perhaps no
better fowl. They are hardy, and con-
sequently easily reared. They are good
layers, settlers and mothers. In a word,
the Plymouth Rock is emphatically the
average farmers bird. 1t is attractive
also to amateurs. Favorable accidents
in breeding have been taken advantage
of by breeders and thus ''strains" have
been originated. We have now three
varieties Of the Plymouth Rock breed,
which are recognized in the American
standard of perfection, viz, barred, pea
comb barred and white.
The Wyandottes, which were first
known as American Seabrights, are
probably cross of the Brahma and
Hamburg, although breeders differ as to
their origin. The Wyandotte is a good
variety for forcing early, being plump
and of attractive appearance in the mar
ket. The flesh is of fine flavor. The
Wyandottes are good settlers and moth
ers. They produce medium sized eggs
of somewhat dark color. Recognized
varieties of the Wyandotte are silver,
golden and white.
Less well known than the above are
the American Javas, with large sized,
long bodies and deep, full breasts-a use
full table fowl Varieties of this breed
are black, notified and white.
