Begging Grapes.

People often ask what is the use of the
abstract studies scientific menand WON
EN- often indulge in. The reply is you
must first discover a new truth before
you can tell whether you can make any
value of it. The valuable discovery
that the black rot can be prevented from
ipjuring grapes by igclosing the bunch
in a paper bag is the direct result of
scientific studies.
When it was found that the rot was
caused by fungus growing from lit
fle'seed or spore which, floating through
fhe atmosphere, attaches itself to the
grape berry, it was the easiest thing to
think of putting bags over Hhe bunch
early in the season SO that the spore
couldn't get there. Hundreds,of thou
sands Of dollars have been saved to the
seu1tivator by this bagging of grapes
which would have been totally lost but
for the labors of scientific man.-Mee-
hams Monthly.
