Rather more than any other kind Of
fruit, unless We except the peach, the
grape requires annual and severe prul-
Ing II not properly pruned q Yigor.
Gus, thrifty grape vine win almost ine
gariably set more fruit than e can ma-
tura Wen. and this excessive draft 81
the vitality Of the vine 50 cripples 1t
that little or no fruit is secured The next
season. To this may Be added the fact
that with amy tree or vine when too
much fruit IS allowed to mature the
quality Is almost invariably lowered.
IT IS necessary that the pruning be
done during the winter, and II should
be completed before the sap starts Ia
the spring. Otherwise the vine will
bleed, and bleeding is always injurious.
The work can be done at any time dur
Ing the winter that the weather viii
permit, and that the vine Is not frozen.
Generally it viii be safe to cut away
fully half Of the previous seasons
growth, as it Is on the last seasons
growth Of wood that the fruit is pro-
duced. But in pruning It should be re-
membered that the best canes for fruit
bearing are the larger ones. Hence IN
pruning as a rule 1t viii be best to emit
off about one-third Of the growth ofthe
larger, more thrifty canes entirely,
sometimes even 10 the extent Of cutting
away some Of the older wood.
OF course there are exceptions. Some.
times the weaker canes may be SO stu.
ated that IL will be desirable to have
them for bearing wood next year, and
when this is the case it win be best to
cut back 10 the third bud, counting
from the base Of the cane. The third
bud is usually the first perfect bud pro,
duced.
One advantage in judicious pruning
in good season is that in the number OF
clusters at least it reduces the quantity
OF fruit for the vine to mature, while it#
improves the quality.
10 should be remembered, with all
plants, it is the production and matur.
ing of seeds that is the heaviest drain
on the vitality Of the plants, and good
pruning lessons thiss-St. Louis Re,

A Little Card Trick.

A Russian priest was SO devoted to
the amusement of card playing that
he played up to the last moment be-
fore commencing the church sefv-
ices.
On one occasion, having a particu-
larly good hand dealt him, he thrust
the cards into his pocket, intending
to return and finish the game after
the service. Unluckily the cards
fell out on the church floor to the
extreme scandal Of the congregation.
The witty priest, however, was
fully equal to the occasion. At the
conclusion, of the service he beckon-
ed up one of the choristers and asked
him the names of several of the
cards, which the boy knew correct
ly. He then suddenly asked the lad
the name of the next saints day,
which the child could not tell.
"See!'' cried the priest, turning to
the congregation. ''You teach your
children the names of every card in
thopack and leave them ignorant of
their religion. Let this be the last
time I am compelled to bring play
ing cards into the church to shame
you," and picking up his hand he
made an honorable retreat.-London
