Budding and Grating.

There is quite a difference IN the ad.
vantagcs Of budding and grating. The
proper time for budding is any period
when good bulbs can be procured and
the bark will run on the stocks.
Peaches and roses are always budded,
but grating is used on apples, pears
and grapes. Budding is sometimes
done in order to change the tops Of
quite young fruit trees Dry weather
is not favorable to budding, and as a
rule budding IS rot as successful as
grating.

Dig away the earth around the peach
trees to the depth of one foot and look
carefully for borers. Then sWab the
trunk foot below and above ground
with thick whitewash, returning the
soil to the tree and banking up six
inches, or a foot, above the level of the
ground, leaving the tree in that condi-
tion until spring. AS the moth lays
her eggs near the level of the ground
she will begin where the earth is
banked up, and when the embankment
is removed the work of destroying the
borers will be easier. Whitewash may

A well-known foriculturist, in speak
ing Of the beauty Of the wild golden
rod, advises that it be added to the
other flowers of the garden. TO bring
out its beauty fully, he says, it should
be associated with the aster, which
may almost anywhere be found grow
ing beside it. The pale rosy violet and
lavender Of the aster give the golden
rod a richness and depth of tone not to
be seen in any other way. Give the
two plants an out-of-the-way corner,
where they can have everything their
own way; then let them take care Of
themselves and they will make a spot
of rare beauty.

Grass Under Trees.

Occasionally the grass under some
trees win be green while under others
it is nearly dead, or yellow, showing
sparse growth. The difference may be
due to the blowing. II an orchard is
deeply plowed its feeding roots will be
below the grass, but If barely stirred,
then the tree roots come to the surface
and take both food and moisture from
the grass. Such is the theory, but
whether true or not, the grass under
trees is best where the land has been
plOWed deep.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
iIized world. Your mothers and gand-
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce. and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Presentation or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation Of u1di-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and or
ganic action of the system, and that
is all they took when feeling dull n
bad with headaches and other aches.
You only need a few doses OF Green's
August Flower, in liquid form, to
make you satisfied there Is nothing
serious the matter with you. You can
get this reliable remedy at all drug
stores. Price 25S and 75c.
