ing tree, one Is flowing upward from
ward or out from the leaves. Only
that sap that Is coming from the
leaves can assist in the growth of the
tree. That from the leaves is called
elaborated sap and Is always in tue
newest part of the tree; that coming
up from the roots is called crude sap
and is of no use to the growth of the
tree till it Is elaborated in the leaves.
The crude sap goes up through the
inner parts of the tree but not in the
very center, while the elaborated sap
flows downward or outward just under
the bark.
When the scion is properly placed
then comes another important step in
the process and that is to keep both
the air and water from the wounds
made in grating This is done by prop
erly waxing the fresh cut parts of both
stock and scion. We keep our wax

small paddle. Every part of both
the stock and scion showing fresh cuts
must be covered with the wax. Hence,
we are in the habit of saying that sue
cessful grating depends largely on
two things, the placing of the scion in
the right place and the complete COW
ering of the wounds with wax. We al
ways put in two scions in each cleft,
one on each side Then the little
wedge, used to hold the cleft open, is
removed. The reason we use two
scions where only one is needed is
that by this method the wound will
heal much better II the limb to be
grated does not exceed half inch
in diameter, one scion is sufficient. We
do not like to cut and split limbs more
than two inches in diameter. Some
times in top-working large tree, we
must go too high up or cut off limbs

as follows: Il would like some in
formation on budding and grating.
What book CT paper would you recon-
mend as being reliable for guiding the
new beginner in the nursery business?
There are few questions that l might
ask if you make a practice Of answer
ing questions"
| would recommend "The Nursery
Book" by Prof. L. H. Bailey as the
best work of the kind known to me.
AS to a good paper for the beginner,
| would modestly recommend The
Ranch. My sons and l operated nur
sery for a few years and made study
of the various problems that confront
the person beginning the nursery
business and l would therefore speak
from experience and the one who has
experience in any line is other things
being equal, the best able to give
sound advice. One thing we claim for
the Horticultural Department Of The
Ranch is that it's editor, whatever may
be his imperfections, has a large ex-
perience in fruit growing in the North
west.
So far as answering questions that
Mr.. Moorhead, or any one else, may
ask, we want it made as plain as pos
sible that l will answer all questions
of general interest to fruit growers
through the columns of this paper
like to have them come in, for in this
way we can make this department
meet the very things that fruit grow
ers are interested in.
Now as to information on budding
and grating, am able to say that we
have had much experience along these
lines. | take it for granted that Mr..
M. wants to know how to successfully
bud and graft standing trees. There is
such a thing as making CRAFTS during
the winter to be planted in the nur
sery in the spring I do not under
stand that the inquiry refers to that
kind of work, although l have had ex-
perience in that line. Taking the
more limited view of putting new tops
on growing trees, l shall answer &C
cordingly. In our experience in fruit
growing in the Yakima valley, we
found that we had some varieties,
planted somewhat extensively, that
were Improbable during years of big
crops. These were Ben Davis, Missouri
Pippin Northern Spy and some odds
and ends that got into our orchards
by mistake. We decided to transform
these trees by putting new tops on
them and have done so very success
fully. We have $500 trees in our or
chards that have been topworked We
did all this work by grating not by
budding. Strictly speaking what Is
called budding is only one form OF
grating. The books treating Of these
things generally bring all this top
working under the head OF "graftage.
AS a rule budding is resorted to In
top-working the drupaceous fruits, that
is those classed as stone fruits, such
as the peach, cherry, plum, etc. For
nomaceous fruits such as the apple,

but not always, used. Some growers
prefer to cut back the limbs to be top
worked and when new sprouts have
grown one summer, they are budded
For various reasons l do not like this
method as well as that more commonly
known as grating.
several methods, known as cleft-graft-
ing, shield grating, saddle grating,
rk-grafting, etc. l do not deem 1t
necessary here to fully describe these
several methods. The one in COM
mon use in top-working apples and
pears is cleft-grafting. Some horti-
culturists prefer one or another of the
methods above referred to.
Cleft-grafting, as the name implies,
consists in splitting the limb into
which the graft or scion Is inserted.
Let us suppose that we want to trans
form an apple tree eight or ten years
old We should first select from three
to five limbs so arranged about the
top that when they are worked over
and all others are cut off, we will have
a well balanced top. Then cut off
Make the cut across at right angles to
the length of the limb. The next step
is to split this cutoff limb in the cen
ter. This splitting is done with an
instrument made for that purpose and
sold by seed houses. Before removing
the knife used in splitting, insert
small wedge in. the center of the limbs
so the parts will not close up tight.
The scion to be used must be dormant
even if the tree is in the growing con-
dition Grating can be successfully
done after the leaves are full grown,
provided the scion is dormant. The
old motto for grating is "a sappy
stock and a dormant SCION" The scion
must not be dried out and withered
but must be as dormant as it is when
cut in the winter. If grating is to
be done late after the leaves have be-
gun to grow, the scions must be kept
in a cool place where they will not
dry out. Now while grating can be
done after the leaves have begun to
grow, l prefer to do the work in the
spring just before the leaves start to
grow.
The scions used should be out fl ON
the previous years growth, should be
plump and healthy. Use piece of
scion three or four inches long with
a bud near the outer end. With a
sharp knife make a wedge out of the
lower end of the scion. The outer
edge of this wedge should be a little
thicker than the inner edge. Now
comes one of the most important OPP
erations in the process Of grating.
The inner bark of the scion must be
in touch with the inner bark of the
stock. If this scion should be set in
the center of the stock it would die
as certainly as if it were thrown on
the ground. The growing part of the
tree is always the outer part. The
same is true of the scion. The grow
ing part of the scion must touch the
growing part of the stock. There are
ALWAYS two currents of sap In a grow

The COUNTRY EDITOR.

, How does the country editor man
age to make the newspaper he . does
isa question which has been often
asked and never answered in but
one way: By work He is his own
editor, reporter, business manager,
foreman, mailing clerk, and very
ofte q his own compassion. =. Alone, or
withNan assistant or Two, he turns
out every week paper which, while
perhaps not brilliant, yet contains
substa ntially all the news of the day,
and ais Of the news of the locality.
The #paper~5zhas an influence far
greater in proportion to its circula-
ito" than any of the great metropoli-
tan da'l es. and it has done more to
educate and reform the people than
the churches and the public schools,
is the belief of many. The over
worked country editor is not properly
Isppre ciated, for he does more for the
community than any other individ-
hual. He must have firm belief in a
reward hereafter, or his nerve would
have deserted him early in his hust-
ling career.

AVOID HARSH DRUGS
Many Cathartics Tend to Cause Injury
to the Bowels.

If you are subject to constipation
you should avoid strong drugs and
cathartics. They only give tenn
porary relief and their reaction is
harmful and sometimes more annoy
ing than constipation. They in no
way effect a cure and their tendancy
is to weaken the already weak or
cans with which they come in con-
tact.
We honesty believe that we have
the best constipation treatment ever
devised. Our faith in it is so strong
that we sell it on the positive guar
antee that it shall not cost the user
a cent if it does not give entire sat-
isfaction and completely remedy
constipation. This preparation is
called Rexall Orderlies. These are
prompt, soothing and most effective
in action. They are made of a
recent chemical discovery. Their
principal ingredient is odorless,
tasteless and colorless. Combined
with other we'll known ingredients,
long established for their usefulness
in the treatment of constipation, it
forms a tablet which is eaten just
like candy. They may be taken at
any time, either day or night, with
out fear of their causing any incon-
venience whatever. They do not
grippe, purge nor cause nausea. They
act without causing any pain OF
excessive loosenees of the. bowels
They are ideal for children, weak,
delicate persons and aged people as
we'll as for the most hearty person.
They come in two size packages,
IL tablets 10 cents, SO tablets rs
cents. Remember you can obtain
them only at our store,-The Rexall
Store. Bankers Drug Store.

FLOODS DO IMMENSE DAMAGE
Losses in Northwest Washington Run
Into Millions.

INTO Millions.
Bellingham, Wash, Dec. 6.-Early
estimates CT flood losses in Northwest
Washington are almost double as the
waters recede and outlying districts
are heard from. Many place the loss
at $2,500,000 in Skagit and Whatcom
counties.
The Upper Skagit valley will be cut
off from the rest of the world for
months, as forty miles of railway must
be relocated and built.
Every single and lumber mill on
the Skagit and Nooksack rivers is
damaged. Several million feet of logs
are floating in Puget sound.
Cold weather has succeeded the
flood and there is suffering among
refugees camped in the foothills.
