mating new varieties, seedlings must
of course be used. The individual
seedlings differ SO widely that they
are seldom used by the intelligent
planter even for grating stock.
There are many socalled methods
Of grating. The mechanical opera
tions performed are similar and the
underlying principles are the same.
the essential difference being the
place where the work is done-as i'm
piled by the names-bench. nursery
and vineyard grating.
Bench grating is done on benches
or tables, usually indoors during win
ter. The grating of vines growing in
the nursery is called nursery grating.
Rooted cuttings of other varieties are
grated in the nursery and the result
ing vines planted in the vineyard. In
vineyard grating the vines growing
where they are to remain are grated.
In cleft grating, the vines are cut
OF at smooth place near and prefer
ably little above the surface Of the
ground. unless it is desired to have
the gratis establish themselves on
their own roots, as 1t makes the re-
moval of water sprouts and roots
starting from the scion much easier
and lessons the danger of injuring the
scion before it is thoroughly knitted
to the stock.

FOR EVERY FAMILY
MEDICINE CHEST

To the head of every family the
health OF its different members is
most important. and the value of an
agreeable laxative that is certain In
its effect is appreciated. One Of the
most popular remedies in the family
medicine chest is combination OF
simple laxative herbs with pepsin that
is known to druggists and physicians
as DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This
preparation is mild and gentle In its
action on the bowels. yet positive In
its effect. A dose of Syrup Pepsin at
night means relief next morning.
while its tonic properties tone up and
strengthen the muscles of stomach,
liver and bowels so that these organs
are able in a short time to again per-
form their natural functions without
help.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in soc and Sl.oo
bottles. If you have never tried this
simple, inexpensive, yet effective
remedy. write to DIR. w. b. Caldwell.
2O1 Washington St, Monticello, Ill.
and ask for a sample bottle. DIR. Cald-
well will be glad to send it without
any expense to you whatever.

(By GEORGE c. HusMAN.)


BY nature the grapevine is a great
rambler. Forms of it are found in
our woods striving to overtop the tall
est trees, and single plants over
spread large areas. Again, other
forms are grown as mere bushes, two
or three feet high, producing crops
ranging from III to 20 tons Of fruit
to the acre. No other fruit-bearing
plant responds SO generously to atten-
ton, adjusts itself to SO many condi-
tions, or Is used for such variety Of
purposes. For these reasons its cul-
ture has always kept pace with civil
ization. Grapes are often grown on
soils too poor for other purposes.
Native species Of the grape are found
in nearly all parts of the world. and
no country is blessed with a greater
number of them than our own. It is
therefore reasonable to conclude that
grapes can be successfully grown al
most everywhere in this country. re-
suits with them depending largely
upon the selection Of varieties Of the
species suited to the respective condi-
tions.
In ordinary practice grapevines are
propagated from seed, from cuttings.
by layering or by grating. For orig

SECURE HEALTHY
PLANT GROWTH
Proper Regulation of Moisture Ie
GEeateet Factor-GAvo
Water Only When
Needed.

Proper regulation of moisture is the
greatest factor in securing healthy
plant growth. While plants can with
stand great extremes in temperature
corresponding extremes in moisture
will surely tend to ruin II not kill even
the strongest.
Water should be given only when
needed. and then in such copious
quantities that the soil is thoroughly
soaked. When potting plants space
should always be left at the top for
pouring in water. An inch and a half
will suffice.
Consider the kind of plant you are
watering. Soft-stemmed kinds, espe-
cially those with large leaves, will re-
quire much more water than hard
wooded, slow-growing kinds. While
the former easily recover from
drought, the hard-wooded suffer per-
manently from extremes.
The character of the soil should al
SO regulate watering. Heavy clay
soils sour easily. while very light loan
soils dry out quickly. and unless care
fully watched plants in them Will wilt.
In either case it is better to water
thoroughly and less frequently than
to water sparingly and often.
The seasons and time Of day should
also be watched. Plants not in active
growth should be watered sparingly
until they have regained their foliage.
Watering in the evening just before
dark greatly aids fungous diseases, as
the foliage remains wet through the
night.
