A handy addition to the customary

narrow box, fitted with hinges and
covered with imitation leather in tone

was green and white watered silk.

imitation leather by the woman who
might feel inclined to construct snch

GRAPE CULTURE.

Many people really DO not know
what healthy fruit the grape is, and
how easy it may DE Jropa gated from
cuttings. Every farmer or city man,
IL he does not own more than small
tot should make il specially to grow
some grapes. With The many differ
ent varieties that we have, we may
arrange to have grapes from August
until December, and sometimes later,
says Inland Farmer. IL we wish TO
grow grapes successfully we should
use plenty Of stable manure, and plow
the land late in the fall, and piow
thoroughly. We then have our ground
ready for spring work. The first three
or four years we should cultivate or
hoe the same as we 90 corn or other
crops. The most handy way TO train
grape vines is a trellis made of posts

IMPROVING OLD ORCHARDS.

If were to give specific advice as
TO the treatment of Old orchards, it
would be in brief as follows:
Get into the orchard with the prun-
ing saw. For this work you need men
of experience. Too many OF so-called
tree pruners are tr,e butchers. Their
zeal is much greater than their knowl-
edge. The only absolute rule in prun'
ing that can be laid down is to cut out
all dead wood. Branches that are
badly injured. diseased, crossed or that
from weak crotches should be re
moved. after which some small limbs
may be cut out. and if the tree top Is
very thick, there should be Judic-
ious thinning of large branches, Let
the pruning extend through two or
three seasons rather than one.
Nearly all old orchards are in sod.
This must be broken up-absolutely
must if success is 10 be attained. Start
it's cultivation and keep il going. Plow
