TALK ABOUT GRATING.
II Requires Less Skill Than Much Of
the Common Work Usually Done
on the Farm.


There seems to be tendency among
the so-called professional grafters to
convey the impression that grating is
an art requiring large amount of skill
and practice. While to become an ex-
pert may require much practice, and
fair amount of mechanical ability, to
become good CRATER requires less
practice than much of the common
work done on the farm, such as digging
potatoes, etc. These are many reasons
why farmers and fruit growers should
learn to do their own grating, and es-
pecially the young people. A profess
sional CRATER often cuts his scions in
large quantities, and I have known
them to cut many hundreds from trees
whose variety was sure they did not
know, often relying on their own over
estimated ability to judge of the vari-
ETY. by the looks of the tree. If the
owner does the work himself he is apt
to take more interest in the future care
and if the tree is large the entire top
should not be changed at once.
Grating is one of the things that
should be taught in our rural schools,
and if properly done the children al
ways take lively interest. 1t also
makes an interesting subject for insti-
tute work, and always like to take a
small tree and do the different methods
of grating, especially whip and side
grating, showing just how to hold the
knife and scion and how to use the 9TH
er tools, which cannot be shown on pa
per. Whip-grafting can often be used
on large trees by inserting in a small
limb that starts out Of the large one
near where it should be grated, and
not cutting the large one until the scion
has made start. A beginner will often
make as large per cent. live as q
person with more experience, as he is
apt to be more careful in setting the
scion and do the waxing more thor
oughly, although it may look more
bungling. If the scions have been
carefully saved and the work proper
ly done IS per cent. of plums, pears and
apples should live. While one cent per
scion at time of setting and two cents
to insure is the old price, the work can
be done much cheaper on all but very
large trees, and on these it is better to
do the work by the hour. These re-
marks refer to grating with scion, as
budding requires more skill, and, in my
opinion, should generally be left to the
nurseryman, as very few farmers make
success of raising their own trees

HORSERADISH CULTURE.
A Crop That Pays Fairly Good Profits
I'm Places Where the Business
Is Not Overdone.

Since the use of grinders, instead Of
graters, for preparing horseradish for
the table has come into fashion, the
cultivation of that pungent plant for
market purposes is likely to be, or
has been, greatly accelerated. I have
been more or less familiar with it
from my boyhood, but it is only re-
Gently that I have learned how to
grow it. If grown merely for home
use, it can be made to occupy any
out Of the way corner, but if grown
for market it can be planted between
rows of early cabbage or other first
crop and allowed to grow as 'fol-
lowing crop until wanted for use. I
had always understood that the prop
er way to propagate it was to reset
the tops, when detached from the
roots, to form new roots; but I find
that those simply produce large
punches of small roots, like the root
of tree, which, if cut off, will throw
out bunch of small feeders, while
long thin root stuck in the ground
will produce new top and fine
large root for the next digging.
Hence, I consider it good plan for
those who grow horseradish from
year to year to set the detached tops
in the ground one year, to raise large
numbers of small roots for again
planting to raise large roots the next
year, and so on from year to year.
The small roots, to be set for produc-
ing large roots for the next crop,
should be as long as you can get them
and set just below the surface, in
holes made by long, slender, iron
or wooden dibber. If planted in the
ground in slanting position, accord
ing to what is known as the English
method, the roots will be more easily
dug. The top end should be cut on
a slant to prevent waters soaking
into the root. v. McElhenie, in
Agricultural Epitomist.

USEFUL WINTER WORK.
Important Cold Weather Tasks That
Should Engage the Attention
of Thrifty Orchardists.


Diseases sometimes almost imper-
ceptibly spread in winter. No matter
how careful the grower may be he
will frequently leave fallen fruit, dead
grass, leaves or other refuse materials
around the trees in winter. They are
the vehicles of germs, and as the
winds scatter light substances to
other locations the failure to clean
away the refuse from single infect
ed tree may cause the spread of dis
ease over the entire orchard. 1t is
useless to cut away dead limbs and
burn them if the spores of fungus
diseases can be scattered broadcast
by materials that could easily be
cleared up and in short time Work
during the winter can be done to
good advantage in destroying the
borers, and the eggs of the millers
which produce worms can be cleared
from the trees; in fact, every tree
will be benefited by scraping and

for the scale insect. The trees of an
orchard usually show the effects of
good treatment. The peach, which
sometimes appears to succumb from
no cause, will respond to severe prun-
ing and take on new life. Many trees,
especially those in old orchards, are
just as they were when first set out,
never having been trimmed. They
can be improved by pruning, but it
should be done judiciously, and not
by going into the orchard with an ak

criminately. Orchards that have

give good profits if the same labor is

MODERN APPLE CULTURE.
It Has No Worse Enemy, Nor More
Persistent and Destructive
One, Than Scab.

This menace to modern apple culture
attacks both fruit and foliage. Young
fruits attacked blight and fall to the
ground. While dropping of fruit has
been attributed to insufficient nourish-
ment, imperfect pollination, and to wet
or cold during the blooming season, Mr..
L. C. Corbett, of the West Virginia ex-
pertinent station attributes the greater
part of the damage to the effects OF
scab. Not only are the fruits great
