The essential conditions for budding
are a free flow Of the sap in the stock
and a corresponding one in the tree from
which the buds are taken. Only when
the bark on the stock can be easily sep
arated from the wood can the operation
be successfully performed. Budding is
to be preferred to grating for all the
stone fruits and in case of failure can be
repeated on the same stock, and is best
performed on young stocks of one or two
years growth. The buds are taken from
scions Of the present seasons growth,
which should be cut from thrifty young
trees. In budding select a smooth place
on the stem of the stock to be budded.

Alfalfa.

Alfalfa is perennial plant, in many
respects resembling clover. 1t has long
been known in Europe, and its most ex-
tensive cultivation in this country is in
California and some of the western and
southern states. It seems especially
adapted to dry climates, and succeeds
best on light sandy or loan soil with
, snbsoil through which its long top
roots can penetrate and find their way TO
moisture. 1t has been grown success
fully at the Geneva station in New York,
but In experiments on farms in different
parts OF Vermont has been largely win
ter killed. It will not thrive among
weeds, but must have clean land the first
year. In reply to inquiries that have
been made no better answer can be given
than brief statement of some of its bad
and good points as discovered at differ.
mt state stations throughout the coun.
.ry and summarized by the central Office
1t Washington.
Among its Disadvantages it has been
found less hardy than clover and not 50
sasily established. If allowed to grow
90 long the stalks become hard and
woody. Cattle cannot be safely pas
sured on it except in dry regions. It re-
luires peculiar treatment 10 make good
hay. Its good qualities are that when
once well established it lasts for years.
1t withstandS drought well, grows rap
idly and may be cut early and will fur
aish several crops of green fodder each
season. If properly cured it makes good
hay and is relished by all farm anilnals.
In brief. while valuable as feeding
stuff and as a fertilizing crop, it re-
Iuires peculiar conditionso of climate and
sol for its growth and careful culture
md curing to make it a profitable crop.
