THE Senate committee on finance has formally decided not to report the Argentine reciprocity treaty, but let it go by default. This action was secur- ed by the influence of the wool growers of the country, who claim that their business would be ruined by the re- duction on wool proposed ty the treaty. The existing duty on unwashed cloth. ing wool is II cents d pound. which it was proposed to reduce to S.s cents a pound: on cOmbing wool it was prOpos- ed to reduce the rate from l2 cents To 9.6 cents tt pound. The existing rates on wool of the third class, generally known as carpet wool, are and cents q pound, and it was proposed 10 reduce these to 3.2 cents and 56 cents pound respectively.

scions in at the outer edges with the
thickest side out, slanting them just
little to make sure that the line be-
tween the wood and the bark of each
scion crosses the line between the wood
and the bark of the branch. When he
scions are in position, remove the
wedge and let the split close up, hold
ing them fast, as in the illustra ton.
Then some wax will be needed, because
if the graft were left like this, these
exposed places would soon become SO
dry that no growth could be made.
Wax may be bought of seedsmen, or
can be made. Boil four parts by weight
of resin, two ofbeeswaX and one of tai
low, until all are thoroughly melted.
Then pour in cold water, grease the
hands and pull it like molasses candy.
1t grows lighter in color by working
and should be soft and pliable when
ready for use. Cover the ends of the
branch and the split down the side,
also the tips of the scions, with the
wax, SO that no air or water can get
in. If all goes well, in short time
the buds on the scions will begin to
swell and grow. In year or two the
branch will be large enough to bear
apples.
For whip grating, the only tool
needed is n jackknife. The method is
practiced for branches about the size
of lead pencil. Make long slanting
cut across the branch, as shown in the
illustrate Then make another cut
a little more than half way toward
the end of this slanting cut, as illus
trated, then cut the scion in exactly
the same way, holding the tip toward
you in making the cut. Place surface
of scion and stick together, pressing
the tongue of each into the cut of the
other. The banks of the two must
come together on at least one side. The
CRAFTS must be waXed in waxed cloth
made by dipping pieces of the cloth
into the grating wax.-Orange Judd

HOW TO TRAIN COLLIES.
Patience and Perseverance and
Teaching One Thing mt n Time
Produce Good Dogs.

A writer in the American Sheep
Breeders, answering correspondent
who asks how to break collie from
going to the head of animals he is
driving. says:
In the first place allow me to say,
on the authority of my grandfather.
who spent his life in the highlands of
Scotland and was considered one OF
the best dog trainers. that in order
to secure the best results with dogs
as workers they should be broken by
the one who is to handle them.
In the first place ! would want to
know the kennels puppy was from.
and would want it when from two to
four months old. 1t should be fed by
the hands of it's master. and should
learn to love him. Never kick or
strike a collie. Scold him or pull his
ear for punishment. And never call
him to you for this. Make him down"
where he is and go to him. If you
call him to you he is liable to suspect
you and make a sulky dog. His first
lesson should be to "come here" Use
1t whenever you call to feed him. and
he will get into the habit of coming
when called. Next teach him to
"down" by saying "down!" and press
ing down with the hand. Be very
thorough with this lesson and make
him keep his position while you go
any distance from him and stay any
length of time.
He should be taken among the stock
from the first and learn to like them
If you keep him constantly with you
he will soon try to help in whatever
he sees you doing. By petting and en-
couraging when he does right and
scolding when he does not please you.
he will soon do as you bid him. But
remember clicking" spoils more collies
than all other things combined
Never try to teach but one thing at
time, and have that well learned be-
fore you try to make him learn an
other. Patience and perseverance will
make a good work dog of any bright
and well-bred puppy.

Dormant scfons can be gotten at any
time during the winter, but if grated
then they would dry and wither long
before the time for them to grow.
Hence we must wait until the tree is
ready to grow in spring. The scions
must be taken sooner and kept in
cool place where they will not wither,
to prevent the buds from starting.
With such scions, grating can be
done any time in spring. Take one OF
the scions and shave off the bottom
on two sides, making a wedge. One
side should be just little thicker than
the other, and on that side there should
be bud just above where the wedge
begins, leaving about three buds in all.
Prepare another scion in the same
way. Now open the split made in the
branch. This may be done with mar
row wooden wedge. Put the two

Make box OBJ that will be two feet
less In length and width than the plat

space of a foot all around the box or
bin; this makes the trough for the cat
tie to eat from. Allow space of about
one inch at the bottom of the bin for
the shelled corn to work out as the cat
tie eat it. They filled these feeders full
of shelled corn and let the cattle run
to them at will. They had to use eau
ton until they got the cattle used to
eating all they could get. They had a
lot of hogs to run with the cattle, to
eat what corn the cattle wasted. Since

not kept in large herds. The cut shows
