output was shipped this year to the
National wool warehouse at Chicago

! have safeguarded myself against
accidents of this kind for many years
past by using leather instead Of cloth
in lacking vines to the wall. Cloth
will seldom last more than a season.
Then If the vine has not found some
permanent kind of support for itself.
there is danger of it's tumbling down,
and once down it will generally be
found impossible to put it back where
it belongs in satisfactory manner:
Leather of good quality is used as
it will last for several seasons. Use
nails, not tacks, to fasten it in place.
A we'll developed vine will have good
deal of weight, and whatever sup
ports it must be substantial
Wherever it is possible to do so,
prefer a stout wire netting as a basis
of vine-support. But l would not ad-
wise its use unless you can stretch
it smoothly, and do this so firmly
that it will hold the vine in place
rigidly.
II possible, fasten the netting to
the cornice above, and then to stakes
set in the ground below, drawing it
tight with the tool used in stretching
wire for fencing. Where this is done
there will be space between the
vines and wall through which the
air can circulate freely, thus greatly
benefiting the vine, as we'll as the
walls of the house, and doing away
with the necessity. of fastening the
branches to the dwelling

CROSS-GRAFT CORN
FOR FUTURE Use

MONTANA.
Is HAILED AS A SUCCESS
Experts Say That Thurmond's Ex-

Been Entirely Sue
cessful.

Billings.-Some noteworthy results
in cross-grafting varieties of corn
have been obtained by j. E. Thur
mond, who has d ranch in southeast
ern Montana. Grain experts believe
that the future corn crop of the Unit
ed States may be affected.
Thurmonds experiments cover
three years. His plan is to use white
flint and Minnesota No. 10 yellow
dent corn for the first year; the Sec
ond year to use the variety obtained
the year before with the flint, and so
ON. He plants the varieties side by
side, cuts the tassels from the white
flint and allows the opposite row to
fertilize the entire crop.
By this method he has produced a
variety with ears almost golden in
color and nearly twice the size of the
parent ear, besides being a prolific
producer. Three stalks on exhibition
Ia Billings show seventeen fully de-
yeloped ears on each.
Corn cultivation in Montana has
up to this time met with small sue

it is believed that Thurmonds variety
will meet every requirement of the
Montana climate. His crop this
year promises IS bushels to the acre.
