HOW TO GRAFT APPLE TREES.

Nurserymeu usually graft apple tree,
during the winter months, using small
seeding stocks, performing the opera.
. ton in warm cellar, aud then placing
the grated plants in sand until spring,
when they are set gu. in nursery rows.
la grating large trees in the orchard it
often becomes desirable to change the
variety of fIu.t. Ia such cases the graft
ing is always done in spring, just az the
buds on the trees begin to swell. The
wood used for cionl is always that OF the
preceding seasons growth, or what is
usually called one year old, and it may
be taken from the trees during the fall
or winter and preserved in a cool cellar,
buried in moist sand or moss, or this
may be deferred until spring and the
cions cut and set the same day, il cir.
cumstauces will allow, or when ciol1 are
procured OF some near ncighbor or from
ones own orchard. The cion when
ready for use should consist Of 4 short
section Of twig containing two buds,
the lower end made in the form OF a
wedge. The branch to be grated is
then cut of with saw, and split with
chisel, to receive the lower or wedge
shaped end of the cion. One edge Of
the cion should be set even with tic
bark of the cleft in the stock, or branch
on which it il inserted. II the severed
branch Is an inch or more In diameter
then two Of the cions may be set in each
cleft and on opposite sides, and then all
the exposed wood covered with grating
wax. The main point is to have the
cions fit neatly and smoothly in the cleft
or split branch. This is the usual way
of cleft grating, but on smaller
branches or stocks the splice graft is
preferable, the same principles being in
volved, and at least one side OF the cion
must fit closely to one side of the branch
or stock. If you have much grating to
do it would be advisable to procure some
one OF the hundreds Of books published,
in which the different modes Of grating
arc fully described, with illustrations.
With such work to AID You there would
be little danger Of failure in grating
apule or fruit trees. New YORK Suo.

Animals View OF Man.

Savage man, who has generally
been first in contact with animals, Is
usually a hunter, and therefore an
object OF dislike to the other hunting
animals, and Of dread TO the hunted.
But civilized man, with his supply Of
bread and beef, Is not necessarily a
hunter, and il Is just conceivable
that he might be content to leave the
animals in a newly discovered country
unmolested, and condescend, when
not better employed, to watch their
attitude toward himself.
The impossible island in "The
Swiss Family Robinson in which
half the animals Of the two hemi-
spheres were collected would be an
IDEAL place for such an experiment.
But, unfortunately unlnhabited
Islands seldom contain more than a
few species, and those generally

covered game regions savage man has
generally been before us with his ar
row, spears and pitfalls. Some in

with man have been preserved in the

L Simple KeEimen In Obesity.

The Journal de la Sante attributes
10 a medical officer Of the French
army the latest "cure" for obesity,
which is strangely simple in its carry
ing out. The form of diet was SIM
ply a restriction to one dish at each
meal, irrespective Of what that dish
might be, and, no matter whether
the quantity consumed was greater OF
smaller, it was made TO satisfy the
desire Of food to the full at eacf
meal. No supplementary dishes, such
as soups, desserts or condiments, were
allowed; one single dish, and that
taken plain, was found to satisfy the
appetite much sooner than a variety
OF dishes, even if the quantity was
apparently smaller and on almost as
abstemiOus scale. This regimen
was employed also in the case of a
lady whose cmbonpOint threatened
too rapid increase, with good results
and without any discomfort in the
observance Of the restrictions In
fact, In one or two instances, the re-
ductiOn Of cOrpulence has seemed to
20 on rather too rapidly and it has
been deemed best TO take means for
restoration, in a measure, Of that
which has been lost. Under this sys-
TEN. as under most others, the exceS-
sive inhibition Of liquids has to be
forbidden, care being taken not to

The Nectarlne Is a Peach.

The nectarine is nothing more than a
smooth skinned peach, and in very early
times was always referred to as a variety
OF the peach. Probably the only reason
why they are not more extensively culii-
waited is that the plum weevil attacks
and destroys the fruit almost as soon as
Il is set on the trees. The smooth skin
easrs an attractive material in which the
weevil can deposit her eggs. Should the
spraying Of such fruits with arsenical
pOisons prove as effective as it promised
to be, nectarines will soon be largely
ulaated for marSet. New York Suo.
