BUD 6IlCh-CUTTING A BUD,
grating save whip grating in the
propagation Of the dwarf pear The
operation Of budding is simple and can
be done with great speed by expert
builders. The expense Of the operation
Is, therefore, not more than that of
whip grating, although the work has
usually to be done in July, August or
early September. The usual plan is for
a man to set the buds and boy to fol-
low closely and do the tying.
The bud should be taken from wood
Of the present seasons growth. Since
the work of budding is done during the
season Of active growth the bud sticks
are prepared so that the petiole or stem
of each leaf is left attached to serve
as handle to aid In pushing the bud
home when inserting 1t beneath the
bark of the stock This is what is usu-
ally called shield bud and is cut so
that a small portion of the woody It's
sue Of the branch Is removed with the
bud.
The stock for budding should be at
least as thick as an ordinary lead pen
Gil With the apple and pear second
seasons growth will be necessary to
develop this size, while with the peach
a single season will suffice; hence peach
stocks can be budded the same season
the pits are planted Consequently the
peach is left until as late in the sea-
son as Is practicable in order to obtain
stocks Of suitable size. In general the
nearer the ground buds are inserted
the better
To bud plant make q cut for the
reception of the bud in the shape Of a
letter t Second cut, AZ. Usually the
crosscut is not quite at right angles
with the body of the tree, and the stem
to the T starts at the crosscut and ex-
tends toward the root for an inch or
more. Loosen the flaps of bark caused
by the intersection of the two cuts OBJ
with the ivory heel of the budding
knife, grasp the bud by the leaf stem
as a handle, insert 1t under the flaps
and push it firmly in place until its cut

HANDLING YOUNG BULLS.
Their Education should Begin Early
to Obtain Best Results.

Their Education should Begin Early
to Obtain Best Results.
The manner of handling bulls both
old and young is very important fac
tor In the successful management of
the herd, writes an Illinois farmer in
Breeders Gazette. Much OF the future
usefulness Of the sire depends on the
manner In which he was reared the
first few years Of his life. OF the many
different breeders probably no two
handle their bulls alike from the time
they are dropped until they are dis
posed of. The successful ones all have
good ways, though perhaps not one
would succeed with the others plans.
AS soon as the young bull begins to
suspect his mission in life there begins
to appear a disposition to romp and
become unruly, and If encouraged this
disposition soon knows no bounds. 1t
is very important that the bull be tax
en- in charge when quite young IL the
best results be sought for. Plenty Of
good feed and water must be given. IN
addition TO shelter from the hot sun
and flies during the summer months;
protection from the worry and uneasi-
ness caused by the presence Of other
cattle near by; clean, comfortable
quarters and kind treatment at all
times.
1t has been my custom, and one your
readers might find convenient, to take
the young bulls when some three or
four months old to the barn and tie
them In well ventilated, darkened
stalls. They soon become accustomed
to their place and are not much trou-
BILE. Feed a liberal amount Of good
oats, bran and corn, with plenty Of
good clover hay or alfalfa, and allow
them to nurse twice each day. At night
they are turned into secluded grass
lot. This plan is reversed during the
cold winter months, and | have found
1t brings good results and is devoid Of
much labor.

Tn. south Like. Good Apples.

The demand for good apples in the
south grows larger every year. In
Florida alone there is constant de-
mand through the winter for this fruit.
More and more Of the stores In the lit
tie towns are handling apples, and In
time the majority of the Florida people
will be full fedged members Of the APP
pie Consumers league. Some curious
stories are told Of the way apples are
sent to Florida. Last year New York
grower put fruit In bushel boxes. left
little spaces between the boxes In the
car and filed In with oats. The ap-
pies carried perfectly In this way, and
the oats sold at a profit.-Rural New

this pest might be averted. The prac-
tice Of leaving cabbage stalks in the
field after the main crop is off is rep
rehensible one. All remnants should
be gathered and destroyed, with the
exception of few left at regular in
tervals through field as lures for the
females to deposit their eggs. Such
stalks, being useless, should, where
feasible, be freely poisoned with arsen-
icals, SO that the last generation will
have no place to develop in the fields.

To raise hogs with the best profit
requires good quarters for the hogs.
They don't need much In summer. A

no hog can get the full value of his

matter where you live, have hog
house, and keep 1t clean and free from
lice. That is the right start to make.

ten Hides I'm the Head.
BY r. H. CHITTENDEN, department of
agriculture.
The worst Of the many destructive
enemies of cabbage and other crucifers
is the larva or caterpillar of a white
butterfly known to science as Pontia
Pieris) rapae linn. The caterpillar,
called the imported cabbage worm. Is
altogether too well known by farm
ers throughout this country as well as
in the world, and the adult insect.
the imported cabbage butterfly, called
also the white or rape butterfly, Is
familiar object to nearly every one. II
is generally recognized that the butter,
fly Is the parent of the worms"
This cabbage worm Is velvety green
in color, much like the cabbage on
which it feeds. There is faint yellow
stripe down the middle of the back,

To the Public School Teachers of Carroll
County.

| wish specially to call attention to the OBJ
servance Of Maryland Day, Friday, March
oath, 1905. This annual lesson on state history,
set apart by high authority, is not a holiday,
nor dies non, in school work; it is day on
which the whole school is called upon to study
some period or fact in our state history, in
order that the pupils may know more of the
difficulties. struggles and victories OF the toun-
ders of our commonwealth in their noble eff
forts to make Maryland land of religious,
civil and political liberty-a land of good
homes where people could live in peace and
prosperity.
The school children this year will have a
lesson on the Federation Act, !" an ordinance
of religious liberty, laying deep the founda.
tons Of freedom in the worship of God &C
cording to the dictates of conscience. The
act passed at an early day places Maryland IN
the forefront in the broad principle of charity,
and guarantees to every man the privilege and
right to worship God in Lutheran, Baptist,
Methodist or Catholic church, or in any other
christian church without hinderance, dictatiou
or interference from any source.
Teachers will do well to call special atteu-
ton to the meaning, history and Importance
of these principles so wisely established IN the
institutions of our state government. Both
by precept and example pupils should be led
into the love of truth, charity. temperance and
the practice of all the virtues which 60 10

scope, it is alleged, will include the office of
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General as ad-
ministered by Joseph L. Bristow, and that OF
Third Assistant, Edwin C. Madden. Bris-
tow, it will be remembered, made a report to
the President, duplicating number of Con-
gressmen, which the President made public,
and which Congress found by investigation to
be mostly imaginary Bristow is also accused
of playing favorites, with the desire of the
President. Bris;ow is now holding another
Federal position. In connection with the
allegation of Bristow playing favorites, is the
case of j. NJ. Masten, who was chief clerk to
the First Assistant Postmaster, General, when
the Brstow investigation was instituted.
Chief Inspector Cochran filed an official report
in which there we're certain allegations regard
ing transactions of Mr. Masten. Masten's at
titude was questioned by some in matters con-
nected with a Irvine contract, the Bnndy time
recorder contract and certain typewriter trans
actions. Mr.. Masten was not named, however,
in Mr.. Bristow's report. Subsequently Mr..
Robert J. Wynne, when FRS; Assistant Post
master General, advised the dismissal of Mas
ten. Instead be was transferred 10 the position
of assistant superintendent ofibe Railway Mail
Service.
1t is said that in the files of the Inspector $
department are numerous documents that have
never seen the light. Preliminary steps to-
ward sitting this matter have been in progress
for some time, and it is known that they have
reached point where the investigation is
liable to be ordered at any moment.
