DWARF BARTLETT PEAR GROWN ON OUNCE
STOCK.
In the use of heel and mallet cuttings
lies In the greater certainty of devel-
oping roots. The principal drawback
Is that only one cutting can be made
from each lateral branch.
When 1t is desired to make the lar
gest number of cuttings from limit
ed supply of stock, cuttings are made
containing but one bud each. Such
cuttings are commonly started under
glass with bottom heat either In green
house or hotbed.
Cuttings are usually made with two
or more buds. The cuttings are made
while the wood is dormant during the
fall or early winter. AS fast as made
they are tied In bundles of twenty-five
or fifty butts all one way and buried
bottom end up I'm a trench and covered
to depth of two or three inches with
sand or mellow soil. Cuttings may also
be kept over winter In n cool cellar
buried In sand, sawdust or moss.
The following spring cuttings are set
about three inches apart in a trench
with only the topmost bud or buds
above the surface. The soil Is then
replaced in the trench and thoroughly
packed. In planting, the cuttings
should be exposed to light and air as
little as possible After being planted
the cutting should develop roots and
put forth leaves, and by the next fall
or spring 1t should be ready to put out.
Herbaceous or soft wood cuttings
are exemplifled In the "slips" used TO
increase the numbers of house plants.
This method of propagation can be
employed in the winter time under
glass. Herbaceous cuttings may be
made from the leaf or stem.
Leaf cuttings are commonly employ
ed In multiplying plants having thick,
teshy leaves containing a large guam
tity of plant food either In the body OF
the leaf or It's larger ribs. AS a general
rule, In preparing slips the leaf area
should. be reduced to minimum In
order TO lessen evaporation
Usually an inch OF broken stone OF
coarse gravel overlaid with one and
one-half to three inches OF sand will
be found ample for all soft wood cut.
tings.
Short cuttings OF the roots may b.
used In the propagation of many plants,
especially those which show a natural
tendency to sucker

contact with the earth as to induce 1t
to throw out roots and shoots, Lay

TN addition to using the natural

whichthe principal are cuttings, layer

A cutting is a detached portion Of

the purpose of producing new plant.
This method of propagation is consider

form of hardwood cuttings consists Of

nearly uniform in size throughout and
containing two or more buds. At the
lower end It is usually cut off just be-

readily from the joints. At the top It

the highest bud. A heel cutting con-
sists of the lower portion of a branch,
containing two or more buds, cut off
In such a manner as to carry with 1t

HOW TO KEEP
WELL In WINTER
Sickness Ought Not to Be More
Common Than in Warmer
Season

There is no necessity for the
vast amount of illness during
the winter. 1t. is true that in
this season the wear and tear
upon the body is greater than
in summer but this only means
that greater care is necessary
to keep the body in good condi-
tion. The two most important
requisites 10 winter health are
proper food supply, and fresh
air.
A proper food supply is the
body's first defence against dis
ease; 1t is the first essential to
winter health. To. keep the
body warm during the winter.
it is necessary to eat more food
than in summer. But care
should be taken not. to overeat.
Most persons 10 winter eat more
than they can digest and use.
Our foods should be prepared so
as to be easily digested. Rich
foods and fried foods over work
the organs of digestion and in
the end furnish the body but
little food. Two ounces of flour
in the form of hard toast will
give the stomach half the work
and the body twice the nourish-
ment that is given by the same
amount of flour made up into
hot cakes.
The abuse of the stomach and
the late hours incident to the
holidays. are responsible for
much winter disease. Statistics
show that there is more sickness
during the first twenty days of
January than at any other time
of the year. During this period
following the holidays there are
more deaths from pneumonia
than usual, and epidemics of
colds and grippe are far more
prevalent. During the holiday
season many persons whose dis
ease resisting power is low lay
the groundwork for i'll health
the remainder of the winter.
The second essential to winter
health is fresh air. During the
winter we need even more fresh
air than during the summer;
most of US get much less. Pneu-
monia, colds, sore throat and all
other disease of the air passages
are almost unknown except dur
ing the winter. when people get
too little fresh air. During the
day there should be some venti-
lation in our offices and houses.
During the night there should
be a half-sash opening to the
outdoors. DIR. Daniels.
