A Fine Field for the Exercise of Horticul tural Skill.- Persons living- in sections where wild fruit trees and. .vines yet continue to grow, undisturbed, in native vigtr, can find exercise for their horticultural skill and love of experiment, in graft ing these wild stocks with improved native and foreign varieties. Several years ago my attention was attracted to this subject by an article which ap peared in the report of onr State Horti cultural society, froan a correspondent in Illinois, who said: "A farmer living near here, having a woods pasture part ly covered with wild crab and red haw trees, some 15 or 0 years ago, grafted the ral to appleTand the red haw tc pear.. He grafted those limbs beyond the reach of animals grazing in the pasture, and now he has . apples and pears iMibundanoe-every fruit year." During the past year the writer made a number of experiments in grafting the wild fruits in this locality; begun grafting the haw to the pear during pleasant days in February, and con tinued after intervals till the 10th ol April. Those grafts set during Febru ary did much better than those of later dates. Scions were taken from Bartlett, Idaho, Duchess and Kieffer trees.' A much larger per cent, of the Kieffer grafts grew than those of other varie ties, and the growth was more vigorous. We also set grafts of the pear into the white thorn; but failed to get any tc live. In -grafting the haw, it is best to select young, vigorous trees, and- lo cate the grafts well in the top of the tree, so tbey will get the suul.ght aric have room to develop. . In the early days of March we grafted some wild plum trees with the Japanese varieties Abun dance aaid Burbank. The growth made by the3e scions was very vigorous, and they are now full of fruit buds. .In grafting, use an abundance ol grafting wax, and cover with a cotton cloth boiled in oil or Wax. Aside froni the curiosities whicih, can be produced on lawns or in waste places, by trans forming these wild stocks, by grafting to improved varieties, some persons may be so situated as to make it a source of considerable profit.

Almost every one tries to start a f en plants early in the spring in the house. 1 ut has no end of trouble carrying them from window to stove shelf at nig-ht to Keep them from chilling-. The illustra tion shows a way to avoid all this trouble, and at the same time to grow more and better plants. A box of any size desired and about two feet in height, is arranged according- to the WINDOW PROPAGATING BENCH. design showii herewith. An opening is cut in one side at the bottom so that a hand lamp can be set in. -This open ing should have a hinged door. ' Above . the lamp is stretched a piece of sheet iron, while some distance above this iron rods run from side to side across the box, for the support of smaller boxes of earth in which seeds are sown. A tight wooden, cover can, be made to shut down over the whole, to be opened each morning-. A small opening- ismade in the top of the lamp chamber and an other in the bottom, to admit air and let out any g-as f rem the lamp. The sheet iron, should lit so closely that fumes from the lamp may not get up to the plant boxes. . A very small flame will keep everything- very warm at nig-ht. Set the box before the sunniest kitchen window. Orange Judd Farmer. Sbeep In the Orchard. I have five acres that are partially cov ered with, apple trees, some of which are quite old. For several years no crops have been raised on the land. For a few weeks in the year it is used for pasturing- cows, and during- a por tion of the summer and fall sheep are given the run of the field. They lie under the shade of the trees a greater part of the day, where a good share of their droppings is left, which seem to be a great benefit to the trees, and all wormy and defective apples are quickly eaten as soon as they fall. I now raiae more and much better fruit, and believe it will pay any farmer who has an apple orchard to keep sheep. John Jackson, in Michigan Fruit rower. Germinating: Nats la Spring;. The success of germinating nuts in the spring depends upon the condition of ripeness and the method of keeping them during the winter. Nuts should not allowed to become too dry before burying"in sand. When gathered too early the kernels shrivel up and have but little germinating power, hence they should not be gathered until the kernel is full and plump. If there is any danger of mice getting into the boxes where they are buried during the winter, wire netting should be nailed over them. Wsetern Plowman. Crowing Berries for Market. Good gardens and poor farms never keep company long. The growing of berries for family use is easily done. The growing of berries largely and sell ing them in good market require con siderable skill and a special business tact. Only those who have good loca tion, good market and a taste for the business should attempt it. Many small farmers so situated are making a suc cess by commencing moderately and increasing acreage from season to sea son as experience warrants. - -. It pays to grow berries on village lots. A half acre lot would bring in considerable money.
