undertakes to correct one who has
made a long life study of these
things. The root of a plant used
for a stock is simply something to
aid the scion in its first growth, and
afterwards the stem makes its own
roots, for all material to form roots
must come from the leaves above,
which are the laboratory of the plant
for manufacturing material for
growth both above and beneath the
ground. We have one apple now
grown which for over one thousand
years or more, or from the time of
the old Rmans, has been grated on
crab apple roots in Europe and in
this country and it is the same apple
to-day that it was when the old Ro-
mans grew it along the Appian Way.
According to Mr.. Johnson it would
by this time be nothing but a crab
for uncounted millions of the Lady
Apple, the highest-priced apple on
markets to-day, have been graft
ed on crab apple roots.

Ditching, Drainage, and Some Other
Kindred Matters.

Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
It is better to prevent lands from
washing into gullies, but if such is
the case they should be stopped by
throwing pine brush, (top upward),
shavings, or cornstalks into them,
and if Bermuda-grass is already IN
the place, throw some of that in also.
If trees are wanted, drop walnuts,
hickory-nuts, pecans, or other seeds
among the trash.
All mountain or hillsides should
be kept in timber, grass, or small
grain if possible, and every tillable
acre should represent a great sponge,
capable of holding a quantity of wa
ter, and returning it when needed.
Lowlands with clay subsoil, and
springs near by or under hillsides (if
good water preserve the springs for
use) require ditching three feet
deep, and tiles, brick, poles and
plank used for the surface OF sur
plus water to pass off rapidly into

One Need of the South.

Editor Gilbert M. Tucker, of the
Albany IN. " Country Gentleman,
writing of his recent trip South,
says:
another crying need of the South
by no means peculiar to the South,
but specially, even appallingly, appa-
rent on the lines followed by the
Farmers Congress visitors-isSatten
ton to forestry. The present van
dalism is perfectly horrible. You see
from car windows, hour after hour,
hundreds and hundreds of pine trees
boxed for turpentine in a fashion
very unnecessarily destructive to the
trees, but a little quicker and easier
than the more rational method. You
stand in any one of scores of large
sawmills and watch the great tree
trunks coming in on a belt carrier in
rapid and endless succession, tumb-
ling right and left alternately to
whirling saws which reduce them to
boards in a twinklirg; and the rapid
disappearance OF the forests grows
in the mind into a prophecy of COM
ing evil that should brighten the peo-
pie of Georgia and Florida into tax
ing some effective action before it is
too late-especially as forest growth
is, for many reasons, of inestimable
value, agriculturally as we'll as com
mercially, in these States. Talk
about killing the goose that laid the
golden eggs! These lumbermen and
turpentiners are straining every
nerve to %annihilate the very breed

chokes is also very greedily eaten by
horses, cattle, and sheep.
Artichoke tubers are an excellent
food for all kinds of stock and poul-
try, and their great value as condi-
TONERS is fast becoming recognized.
They are a splendid milk producing
food for COWS during late autumn
and early spring, when green grass
is scarce. The writer feeds arti-
choke tubers to his horses Gall stock
must learn to eat them) in connec-
ton with sunfower seed, oats and
corn, from October to June. His
horses prefer the tubers to corn, or
even oats. They help form a change
of feed, clean the worms out Of them,
and keep them healthy, sleek and
fat.
Artichokes should be grown
on swampy land, if a good yield of
tubers is desired. Well drained land
under-laid with gravel near the sur
face is the ideal land for them, al
though they do well on any good corn
land.
The Mammoth White French,
White Jerusalem, and Red Jerusalem
varieties, are the best for general
cultivation. They do well in every
State. Seed tubers can be obtained
from almost all reliable seedsmen.
There is a long-standing prejudice
with many farmers against the cul-
tivation of the artichoke, and indeed
many have good reasons for preju-
dice. As there are wild and tame
rye, wild and tame lettuce, wild and
tame parsnips, etc., so there are wild
and tame artichokes. Almost every
vegetable and cereal cultivated and
used as food for man or beast, has
it's namesake in a noxious, and oft
times troublesome weed. The wild
artichoke is merely a bad weed, pro-
ducing very few, small and tough in
nutritious tubers, and is about as
hard to exterminate as is the Can
ada thistle. The tame artichoke may
be very easily eradicated by sowing
the patch to oats, or blowing under
the growing plants when about two
feet high. Why, "it's as easy as roll
ing off a log"

MISUNDERSTANDING CONCERNING
VALUE OF ARTICHOKES.
Something About Their Value as a
Feeding Crop-How to Grow Them.

According to the writer long eA-
p~erience in growing and handling
artichokes, the most serious mistake
is to grow them on same land more
than two years in succession. They
need changing the same as do other
crops. Many seed dealers who offer
artichoke tubers for sale say that on
ly one planting is needed; that the
artichoke being perennial will repro
duce itself year after year without
the trouble of replanting or cultlva-
ton. True enough. So will most 9th
er crops grow volunteer, but what do
they amount to? Artichokes when
permitted to sprout up and grow
without cultivation, always grow so
thickly together that they form an
overabundance of tops, with but few
and small tubers. In this condition
they can be likened unto a sowed field
of corn, which furnishes an abund-
ance of fodder, but very little grain.
To secure a large yield of tubers
(and that is the main object in grow
ing them) they should be planted and
cultivated every year, same as pota-
toes, and it pays big to do so, when
the large yield of tubers is consid-
cred.
AS freezing and thawing, while in
the ground, does not in the least in
jure the tubers of artichokes, it is
much the better plan to plant them
in October or November. The writer
cuts the largest tubers to aboH , |
times the size of a quail gs\ Il
plants them in three and one-half
foot rows, with the tubers drilled
about 18 inches apart, and covered
with two or three inches of soil. They
will then be in the ground to get an
early start in the spring, and through
the means of an early start, will grow
a strong stalk before. the cut worm
season begins. While if the plant
ing be delayed until spring, the
ground is often too wet to pillow un-
til late, and the cut worms often
greatly injure the young plants be-
fore they get a good start, and in
reality often make the difference be-
tween a good crop and a failure.
A wealthy hog raiser of the
writer's acquaintance, and who has
made a very valuable farm by rails
ing hogs for the pork market, say'
that he would not be without a large
annual patch of tame artichokes, anC
that his herds have been entirely free
from hog diseases since they hav,
been allowed to root to their heart
content in an artichoke patch.
There is no doubt that very mucl
, of the mortality among hogs is di
rectly due to indigestion caused b.
an exclusive corn diet. Every wide
| awake hog raiser will admit tina

very much better and make a niue
. better quality of bacon, when the

Editor of The Progressive Farmer:
I have just noticed the article In
your columns signed slack john
son." I suppose this is a nom de
plume, and that the writer vas
ashamed to sign his name to such
nonsense. 1t is hardly worth while
to discuss these matters with one
who supposes that crossing of varie-
ties is made by grating Or budding.
If this was rue all of the nursery
grown apple trees would be crabs,
for they are all grated on Seeding
crab apple roots. Cross breeding in
plants is only done by crossing the
flowers of one species on another
which will be what is called h%ybridiz-
ing, or crossing flowers of different
varieties of the same species on those
of another variety and growing from
the seed thus produced new plants
having partially the characters of
each parent.
I would inform Mr.. Johnson that
roots are always the product of
stems, and that whatever root the
plant is grated on, the subsequent
growth is always whatever the top
is, for the material growth is al
ways elaborated by the leaves. A
piece of wild Bullace root will en-
able the Scuppernong vine to make
a larger growth in one season than
it would without it, but all the roots
formed thereafter will be rue Soup
pernong roots just as the top is, for
the sap water that comes from the
ground must be elaborated by the
Scuppernong foliage and the top and
roo will hen be Scuppernong and
nothing else. We commonly bud
plums on peach roots, and if Mr..
Johnson's ideas were true we would
have them half peach and half plum,
while we know that we get the same
variety of plum every time. [ can
show him hundreds of Scuppernong
vines bearing the purest of Scupper-
nong grapes which were grated on
Bullace roots.
Mr.. Johnson says that in his way
of planting few of the cuttings will
live. He is certainly not a good
hand at handling cuttings. Let him
take off the cuttings late in the fall
and tie them in punches and bury
them in the earth upside down til
spring. Then set them In the proper
position and see how many more vii
root. But if he takes pieces of tn,
Bullace roots about four inches long
and makes a split in the middle O.
the root and through this inserts tn,
end of the cutting after trimming i
wedge-shaped and then set it, no
one in a hundred will fail, but wi
make as large plants in one seaso1
as the cutting without the root wi
in two. Mr.. Allen Warren of Green
vile, Pitt County, originated thi
plan, and Mr.. Johnson can see ther
a vineyard of Scuppernongs an
others of the same Vulpina elias
bearing the same variety that WE

A surnrised PhxsicInn.
A dying patient recovers through the in- terposition. of a humble German.
 CbicoOO Nov

Chicago, Nov. 10.
 Some weeks ago Dr. G., a very reput- able and widely known physician, living on C. Street. was called to attend a very complicated case of Rheumatism. Upon arriving at the house he found man about forty years of age, lying in a prostrated and serious condition, with his wholeI frame dangerously affected with the painful dis ease. He prescribed for the patient but the man continued to grow worse, and on Sunday evening he was found to be in a very alarming condition. The knees and el- bows and larger joints were greatly in- famed, and could not be moved. It was only with extreme difficulty that the pa tient could be turned in bed, with the aid of three or four persons. The weight of the clothing was so painful that means had to be adopted to keep it from the patients body.
 The doctor saw that his assistance would be of no avail, and left the house, the mem bers of the family following him to the door, weeping. Almost immediately the griefstricken ones were addressed by an humble German. He had heard of the despair of the family, and now asked them to try his remedy, and accordingly brought forth bottle of St. Jacobs Oil. The poor wife applied this remedy. The first appli. cation eased the patient very much after a few hours they used it again, and, won- der of wonders, the pain vanished entirely! Every subsequent application improved the patient, and in two days he was well and out. When the doctor called few days after, he was indeed surprised.
