Fall is the time to make cuttings of
shrubs and small fruits and vines. 1t
is much the cheapest way of increas-
ing your stock and is so simple that
any one with ordinary Judgment can
not fail to be successful
Cut piece of we'll ripened wood
long enough to contain at least two
buds of joints Cut it off close to the
joints. Then choose place where the
ground is moist and shaded and rich.
such as the north side of fence or
building. and insert the cuttings in the
earth to their full length so that the
top joint is about even with the sur
face. To do this it will usually be nee
essary to first drive down spade. for
the cuttings are Lot strong enough to
be thrust into the solid ground.
Before freezing weather cover them
with a mulch of straw or something of
that kind, and do not uncover them
until growth starts in the spring. Then
cultivate and hoe them throughout the
season and keep clean of grass and
weeds. Cuttings of the grape should
not be taken until pruning time comes.
which is not until after the leaves fall.
Another plan is to tie the cuttings in
lunches and bury them in the ground
or in box of moist sand in the cellar.
During the winter the ends will callus
over with tender layer of cambium.
out of which finer roots will readily
start when the cutting is planted. This
Is the method practiced by nurserymen,
but planting in the fall as soon as cut
answers very well and is less trouble
for the farmer. says writer in Orange

The New immigration Law,

The new immigration measure will
provide for very exhaustive investigation
of many points. Meanwhile, great eff
forts are going to be made to distribute
the newcomers more thoroughly through
out the country, and to test their fitness
for success, particularly in Southern
agriculture and industry. At present
we are receiving immigrants at the rate
of considerable more than a million a
year, one-quarter of them coming from
italy, another quarter from the races OF
Austria Hungary. another quarter from
Russia, and the remaining quarter from
Germany, Scandinavia, the British
Islands, and scattered sources. The sit
uation requires the most exhaustive
study and analysis. If these new factors
that make up the bulk of our immigra-
ton should be sifted or restricted in some
radical fashion, public opinion will sup.
port Congress in legislation after the ar
gument has been sustained by a showing
of undeniable facts. At present the
country is in great need of labor, and a
good kind of immigration is welcome
But in the long run our industrial life
itself, as well as our social and political
institutions, must depend upon the char
acter of American citizenship, and il
would be fearful mistake to bring here
classes of people permanently undesira
BILE in vast numbers merely to meet a
temporary demand in the labor market

During the nine months ending Janu-
airy 26 last the Champlain Valley Tele-
phone Company, which has exchanges
at Bristol, Middlebury, New Haven,
Pittsford, Salisbury and vergennes, made
some notable gains. The most notewor-
thy of all was the gain at Middlebury,
where the number of subscribers in
creased from $50 to 1854, which is a gain
OF nearly 10 per cent. Altogether to-
ward the close of January there were
$50 subscribers on the lines of the Cham
plain Valley company.
During last year the New England sys-
TEN, of which the Champlain Valley
company is one of the sub-licensee or
CARNATIONS, made a gain of more than
"a per cent bringing its total up to $685.
2S6. This system includes not only Yer
mont but also Maine, New Hampshire
and Massachusetts. The number of sub
hcensee subscribers in the system at the
beginning of this year was 27176. Up
to January 26 there was a further gain
of 1881 subscribers throughout the terri
tory OF the system, making new total
of 257, 023. This gain included 1870 sub
scribers on ub.licensee lines. Such sub
scribers, in addition to having an up to-
date local service such as the Bell com.
panies furnish all over the country, also
have the benefit of the long distance
facilities furnished by the toll lines of
the New England Telephone and Tele-
graph Company; and, as is generally
recognized, without such long distance
facilities telephone users at the present
time would be considerably handicapped.

Vines which are unpruned through

TO do all pruning in the fall.
There is an added advantage In this
If winter protection is to be given. as
the vines are much less difficult to han

In the matter Of winter protection
opinions differ. Ny observation has
been that at least from central Iowa
north winter protection. though not al
ways necessary, is always cheap insur-
ance against damage from frost. The
method used is simply to lay the vines
on the ground and cover them with
three or four inches of earth. Treated

The Editor REGRETS.

when I was city editor of the Vir-
ginia City Enterprise" remarked Mark
Twain at dinner in New York, "a fine
turkey was one day left at the office"
Turkeys were rare in that high alti-
tude, and we all hankered after this
bird. The proprietor, though, claimed
1t for his own. He took it home and
had it cooked for dinner.
1.-The next day, as he was expatiating
on the turkeys richness and tenderness.
a letter was handed to him. He opened
it and read:
Mr.. EDITOR:
SIR, Yesterday sent you a tur-
key which has been the cause of much
dispute among us. To settle a bet
will you kindly ask your agricultural
editor to state in tomorrow's issue
what it died of. "-Harper's Weekly.

Mr. Moody has written in his Bible
at the fifth and sixth chapters of John
this sentence: IF God be your partner,
make your plans large"
Christian Endeavor implies partner
ship with God, and Christian Endeav-
Or calls for planning on broad lines
The field of the society is the entire
community. We must not fence 1t in
and say that its efforts shall extend to
the membership of the individual
church and no farther The spirit of
Christian Endeavor is missionary, and
whenever there is soul needing light
there 1t should carry the message OF
the Light of the World. The glory o.
christian Endeavor lies in this-that
1t has got the eyes of the young
people away from the narrow boundary
of life and given them wider vision
and more glorious prospect; large
plans, then, because of large vision !;
large plans because of greater op-
portunity large plans plus partnership
with God, and the result a glorious
fruitage and heavenly blessing. -John
