HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

Don't allow the stock wagons to
pack the soil in the orchard.
Promptly gather up and burn all
brush and rubbish in the orchard.
When spraying do not work with
bare hands. They'll be sore If you do.
Put on pair of rubber gloves.
Remove every dead tree from the
orchard. They are veritable breeding
places for fruit pests
The grape is one of the longest lived
of all fruit plants. 1t will live and
bear fruit in one place for hundred
years or more.
A covey of quail in the orchard will
prove good friend to the grower, be-
cause they eat tremendous number
of insects.
The city dealer profits by the lazi-
ness of the grower, by grading and re-
packing his badly assorted fruit.
To destroy the wild morning glory
or bind weed, turn in the sheep or
hogs.
The pear tree needs but little cul-
ture. To encourage strong growth
only induces blight A sod surface
and slow growth is more favorable.
Remember when you pillow in the
orchard that the roots are very near
the surface. Three inches is plenty
deep enough.
Some fruit growers say that it is not
good plan to pillow an orchard when
the trees are in lossom-better do it
before or after.
That corky old apple, the Ben Davis,
still holds high price in the city mar
kets, because it's fine appearance de-
ceives the ignorant buyer.
Many farmers who have been grow
ing fruit for years do not know that
the apple and most other fruit trees
form fruit buds in the late summer
months.
Placing a small heap of rich stable
manure around the base of each tree
in the orchard will prove to be little
time most profitably spent.
Some refuse straw scattered among
the small fruit bushes will work won
ders as fertilizer and in keeping
down the unsightly and Improbable
weed pests.

be readily obtained by stirring up the
solution and measuring out as many
gallons as there are pounds required.
The lime can likewise be slaked in
quantity and kept till needed as
stock solution of known strength. The
blue-stone may be dissolved quickly
in hot water, or, more slowly, in cold
water by suspending near the top of
the water in a burlapa or coarse
basket over night. Good stone lime
should be used. Air-slaked lime is not
satisfactory. Hydrated or process

employed, however, the end is the

peaches use not over half strength.

which can be gotten in various sizes.
Those preferred are six inches in
length and three-eights of an inch in
diameter, which 1 find are priced at
SIPS per 100, or 20 cents per dozen.
A blacksmith turns a hook at the
head-ends of the screws. Holes are
bored in the two parts of the tree
which are separating, in which the
screws are solidly turned connecting
them with a heavy wire cable. The
screws should be given such a posi-
ton that there will be straight
pull on them, thus eliminating danger
of splitting the branch. The cable is
formed by using two rounds" of
heavy. galvanized wire from hook to
hook, which is then twisted up taut
by inserting between the wires piece
of buggy spring or other fiat piece of
iron or wood, and turning until the
divisions of the tree are brought in
close contact at the point of separa-
ton.

Grating Trees.

Waxing is one of the most impor-
tant factors in successful grating.
The work must be done carefully, that
the scions be not disturbed, and COM
pletely, that all air and moisture shall
be excluded. A very good wax is
made by melting together four pounds
of resin, two pounds of beeswax and
one pound of tallow. When melted
pour into tub of cold water to cool;
then pull, the same as for taffy, until
it is of q clear golden color OF
course grating should be done on
warm, bright days; otherwise the wax
hardens SO quickly it is difficult to
