NOVELTY IN GRATING.
Texas HOrtfculturist Has ACCOM-
plished a Feat That Is Creating
4 Wonder Everywhere.

1t is well known that grating Tor
budding) cannot be done successfully
between the stone fruits (peach, cher
~, plum, etc. and those which have
their seeds inclosed in core-the APP
pie, pear and ounce. But here is a
Texas horticulturist, Col. Rosamon,
who claims he has found the missing
link" (as he terms it), which will unite
all these. According to the National
Fruit Grower, this person states that
he has successfully grated both the
foregoing classes of fruits on the per-
simmon. This is certainly interesting,
if, true, and the trial will not be diff
cult if one has the young persimmon
trees on which to experiment. H "a
Z Our friends who reside in localities
where there are bearing persimmon
trees will do well to gather, the fruit
and save the seeds. The planting
should be done soon after the fruit
ripens, or, if that is not convenient,
the seeds can be kept in damp sand or
earth until spring and then planted.
Even if the grating is not satisfac-
tory, some valuable new varieties OF
the persimmon may be obtained from
the seed. %1 5;@z

Cod Liver. OIL for Calves.

American dairymen are well ac-
quainted with the methods Of enrich
ing skim milk for calves by the addi-'
ton Of oil meal and the Like. But ac-
cording to recent reports the New
zealanders are actually using ii their.
milk cod liver oil at the rate Of two
ounces per calf per day. The report
says that where separator skim milk
is used the farmers have found it nee.
essary to add something, especially
when the calves are to be grown into
beeyes. Crude cod liver oil can be
bought IN that country for about rs
cents per gallon, and each gallon CON
itains 100 ounces Of oil. This permits
them to feed two ounces per day for
.a period Of 80 days, after which the
use Of the oil is disco tinued. 8s.s

The Preparation Of Apples for Cold

In paper read before the Nebraska
State Horticult ural society Peter.

as december. Each apple was wrapped
first in . sheet Of waxed paper, using
ex12,-ii IS. / sheets for small apples and
12x12inch sheets for large ones. Then
another covering Of common d ewspa-
per was added and the apples carefully
packed in barrels, filling them up so as
to require consid bic pressure to get

While some varieties (such as the
Walbridge and SherifD disappointed
us, still 7 am satisfied beyond doubt
that wrapping first in waxed paper,
then lin in any common paper, is the best
method of packing apples for cold stor-
age. This double wrapping makes prac-
tically an alright cell for each apple,
thus preventing any spread Of decay.
In order to test the matter, few
barrels were placed in storage without
any wrapping whatever. The varieties
selected for this, test were Ben Davis
and Wine Sap. They were placed il the
same storage room and received exact
~ the same treatment as the others.
