PROTECTION IN WINTER.
How to Care Effectively for Young Trees
and Tender Shrubs.

How to Care Effectively for Young Trees
and Tender Shrubs.
The aim in giving any kind of winter
protection is merely to preserve the
gains made in root or top growth dur
ing the preceding season. At in the
illustration is shown young tree well
protected both by stake and mound.
A few stones piled around the stem,
as shown at b, will often do very well,
at least are much better than no pro-
lection at all, but will not prevent in
jury from rabbits and mice, as the
mound is quite liable to do. Young
trees with little root, when left exposed
to the sweeping winds without support.
usually are swayed back and forth un-
til funnel-shaped cavity is formed
around the base, as may be seen at C,
endangering the life of the tree from
the drying out of the already scant
root supply, or perhaps by being en-
tirely blown over, as seen at d. Young
e,ergreens, with their comparatively
heavy tops, are particularly subject to
displacement or partial uprooting by
the winters winds, and may be held in
position by stout strings fastened to
the stem and to small stakes driven into
the ground few feet from the base of
the tree, as shown at e. Small compact
evergreens are liable to be broken down
by heavy snowfall, and the most nat
ural protection perhaps is the one sug-
gested at f, consisting of sort of roof
made of two pieces of board. Tender
shrubs may be treated in variety of
ways. At G we have shrub protected
by an inverted barrel. To make sure
thing still surer, the other head might
be taken out also, the barrel filled with
dry leaves and again covered. At b
we see the shrub wrapped in canvas
or muslin; at protected by straw or
straw mating. A simple way of COW
ering small. tender shrubbery is by
means of sods, as illustrated at j; but
ordinary soil. as at A, will do about as
well.-Farm and Home.

TIME TO MAKE CUTTINGS.
Good Way of Increasing Small Fruits of
Every Description.

Good way OF increasing Sulau fruits OF
Every Description.
During the winter months is the
time to make cuttings of such trees and
shrubs as it is desirable to increase.
Ounces, currants, gooseberries and
grapes are readily increased by cut
tings. In the case of shade trees will
lows and poplars are easily grown from
cuttings, but the great majority of
trees need to be raised from seeds, lay
ers, or by budding or grating. But
when it comes to the Towering shrubs
which adorn our lawns, cuttings are
the chief reliance of propagators. The
time to make them is while vegetation
is dormant, and it is better done at
least a month or more before spring
comes. The beautiful Golden Bell,
Weigla, Mock Orange, Spirea, Duetzia
and Athaea among many others are
easily raised in this way.
The best shoots for the purpose are
those of last years growth. The ex-
act length is not particular, SO that two
or three joints are included in each
one. About nine inches is good length
for most sorts, though grapes having
the joints far apart may be foot in
length. 1t is believed that when the
lower part is cut just below an eye, that
roofing is easily accomplished, so cut
tings are usually made in that way. 1t
is not so essential at the upper end
where the cut is made, but as the buds
push from the joints all wood above the
highest one is useless. After the cut
tings are made place them in cellar.
buried up in sand or earth, with but the
tops projecting, these to remain I'M
til the time arrives for setting them
out in the spring. When the work is
done about February, it will be found
that the cuttings are nicely healed over
by the time spring comes, which is
III favor of the success of the operation.
When the winter is over and the soil
is in good condition for working the
planting may be done, setting them
so that two-thirds of their length are
in the ground and one-third out. In
ordinary season the most of them will
be well rooted by fall. = Practical
