GRATING OF BUDDING.
Two Methods in Use Among the Nursery
men of America.

Il wv LUMINOUS III tn' 4ApA'iS VIC -'N''es't
men of America.
If the quality of the fruit is not what
it should be, in any thrifty orchard,
better varieties may easily be obtained
by the selection of cions, early and
spring grating or by budding later in
the summer. There are several meth
eds of grating in use among nursery
men, but it is not necessary here to de-
scribe more than two, splice grating
and cleft grating. In the former the
cion must be near the size of the stock
it is grated upon. Cut the stock Off,
with smooth, long, upward stroke OF
the knife The cion, which should be
four or five inches long, must be cut in
like manner in such shape as to fit
nicely upon the stock having some por-
ton, if not all, the wood and bark on
both fit exactly together so that the sap
flowing through the cellular tissue of
the former will pass without obstruc-
ton into that of the latter.
In cleft grating a limb of twice or
more the diameter of the cions is sawed
square off and split down the middle
two inches or more. The cleft is held
open by wedge driven down on one
side. while cion, cut wedge shape, is in
serted in the opposite part of the cleft.
The wedge is then removed and another
cion. cut in like manner, is put in it,
place. Great care must be taken tc
| bril>T the bark, or rather the inner
bark, of the cion and the stock exactly
together before applying the wax. In
; both forms of grating a coating OF
grating wax must be carefully spread
with thin wooden blade, upon ant
around the cut portions of wood. This
should be wrapped around with strips
of muslin and tied securely. Grating
wax was made by melting resin, three
parts. with beeswaX one part and tai
low enc part. If too thick add more
! tallow, if too thin more resin. Go t.
your neighbours or send to friends at f;
distance, for cions of such varieties a.
you desire, and this should be done a
once. Keep them in cool, moist plac,
till you are ready to use them. TIL,
number of successful gratis you max,
will depend mainly upon the care takel
in putting them in.-Western Rural.

The Green Veil.

The green veil is the rage, and it Is
fearful to behold some of the women
behind it. Green is natures color. 1t
is the one tint that everybody can wear
with pleasing effect, But there are
greens and green's, and the wrong green
is worse than ugly-it is positively re-
pulsive. The woman with paralyzed
liver, with bilious complexion, with
freckles, with saucer eyes or with a
thin face, in which the shades gather,
will be CHASTITY under a yellow green.
She must not accept present of any
stuff bordering on the lettuce, tendril
or what is known as spring green's, un.
less she wants to suggest quarantine.
Grass, ivory, oak, migonette, asparagus
and myrtle greens are always good, but
beware of the olives, maple and flower
shades Babies and young children
can wear anything, but maturity must
study the effect of things if she wishes
to make the most of her charms.--N Y.

The ROAD PROBLEM.
Views That Are Not as Chimerical 40
They May Seem to Many.

IN former articles | have underworld
to set forth the Importance OF thorough
drainage. This having been scientific
ally done we have a foundation OH
which TO build a superstructure. Up to
the present time the great roads OF the
world have been made of stone, and
where it is available it is questionable
if better material can be used. But
as this is an age of great discoveries
and inventions may we not reasonably
expect something from that quart er
that will take the place of and even
supersede the use of stone entirely? 1t
has been discovered that the earth is
full of that beautiful metal aluminium,
that in the near future will to great
extent supersede the use of iron in all
our farm machinery, vehicles of all
kinds. household and cooking vessels,
in building bridges, houses, etc in
! fact, there is no end to the uses 1t can
be put to. Then why by the aid OK the
chemist may not some process be
| evolved that will in some cheap way
harden the very earth now lying in the
roads we use?
Again, | think it not impossible to
construct some kind of transportable
machine by which to manufacture q
brick or block by pressure made from
the earth of which our roads are now
made combined with some cheap sub
stance or chemicals that will cause it t.
harden, making it impervous to water
or the effects of frost. Who knows bu
electricity may be d leading factor IL
road making? The inventions of th'
nineteenth century seem very great
particularly to u man who has notet
the progress Of invention, science an'
art in the world for the last sixty years
After what has been done who dares u
question the possibilities of the balanc
of this century?
Imagination has pictured to my min'

PLAN FOR FEEDING CALVES.

scantlings. The lower portions of the
movable pickets are secured by bolts.
When feediNg time comes, the pals of
milk are placed on platform on the
front side of the fence, the picllcts are
dropped to one side, as shown in the
illustration and when the calves put
their heads through, the pickets are
again replaced, and held in position by
a bolt or block. In this way each calf
gets the portion intended for it, as after
a little while each will take its own
place, and there is no sucking of ears,
etc, as happens when they are fed pro,
miscuously.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.
ADVANTAGE OF SOILING.
Why II Is More Profitable Than the Time
Honored Pasturing.

Why 1t Is More Profitable Than the Time
Honored Pasturing.
The enormouskyaste incurred by the
tramping down of pasture by stock
when the ground is soft or the feed is
short is too little thought of by farm
ers. Early turning upon the pastures
in the spring, before the ground settles
or the grass gets a start, often does Sc
rious damage to both land and stock.
The grass is soft and washy and the
change from dry nourishing food TO
that containing SO little nutrition is
often quite serious in it its results.
Under the soiling system more stock
can be kept on given acreage than by
pasturing; much of the expense of fenc-
ing is saved; nearly all of the food
given is available for the formation of
products, as there is no waste Of energy
in searching for food and the manure
can be preserved free from waste.
The best crops for soiling are those
rich in heterogeneous matter or protein.
Although smaller crops are usually OBJ
tanned with the legumes Glover, peas,
etc., than with corn fodder, the fodder
from the legumes is much richer in nj
trogen and hence of more value in the
production of milk, cheese, butter and
beef. The legumes, being nitrogen
collectors. are able to obtain much of
their food supply from the air and sub
soil. They add to the fertility of the
soil by the decay of their roots, stubble
and leaves, which are left in and upon
the soil when the crop is harvested.
The advantages of clover to the dairy
farmer may be briefly summed up as
follows 1t is more valuable than hay
or corn stalks in production of milk; ii
obtains much of its nitrogen from the
air, and can be grown with mineral fer
tilizers only: it increases the value OF
the manure and it tends to improve the
soil by the decay of its roots, stubblc
and leaves. which re nain after the Grey
is harvested. Western Rural.

Kitchen Aprons.

Wooden aprons are recommended
either to cooks or other women who
are constantly about hot stove. The
aprons may be made from a light
weight, loosely woven wooden, and are
certainly wise precaution against
those accidents from fire that happen
every few days. At the large stores
there are ready-made wooden petit
coats, the cheapest of which are fifty
cents, that may be cut open and used
for aprons. They need only be used
for cooking and ironing, and the ging.
ham apron used at other times. Washed
in water containing little ammonia,
they are as easily cleaned as aprons OF
cotton.-N. Y. Post.
