Pear Trees from Cuttings.
V writer in Home and Farm says that
ib ' propagation of fruit trees by grafting
I budding has been practiced too long and
u ccessfully to claim at this late day that
■ tber method of propagation •is of itself
necessarily an enfeebling process. It is not
Jr me re fact that a LeConte is grafted that
oakes it inferior, for a LeConte grafted on
i LeConte stock makes a first-class tree,
(for is the mere fact that a tree is grown
frora a cutting anything in its favor. The
truth is that whatever goes to make up a
■ r uit tree, whether seeds, cuttings, stocks,
traits or buds, must come from trees liav-
L t he habits and qualities we want in the
sew tr ee. All pear-growers know that the
war trees of European origin (the common
L r trees of the country) have become lia
jje to disease and an early death. Seed
lings of this race of trees, such as are used
[or stocks, inherit a want of vitality, an
ibiiity to resist disease. The LeConte be
on<rs to the Asiatic race of pear trees, and
is one of the most vigorous and healthy of
(ruit trees. Now, we cannot have a healthy
LeConte or other tree without it has healthy
fwts, and seedlings of the European race of
aear trees not having inherited a healthy
Constitution, communicates the tendency to
jisease to the LeConte graft. In proof of
ihis, grafted LeContes and their progeny
lave blighted in our country and are small,
crubby trees, and yield but little fruit com
pared with the pedigree tree. Furthermore,
'he LeConte carries an immense quantity of
foliage and annually makes a good deal of
lew growth when on its own roots. The
feebler roots of the seedling of the old face
rf pear trees cannot supply the required
quantity of sap, especially to support both
fruit and growth. Hence, when the grafted
LeConte arrives at living age, it succumbs
luid fails to perform its mission unless the
LeConte body has thrown out roots, which
t sometimes does. For the same reason the
LeConte will not thrive on quince stocks.
But if we had stocks that were as vigorous
ind healthy as the LeConte, there would be
10 objection to grafting on them.
As stated before, the seedling stock com
municates its tendency to disease to the
jraft and resulting tree, and hence cuttings
from grafted LeConte trees have the con
taminated sap and the same tendency to dis
use and an early death; and frees grown
from such cuttings are no better than the
parent tree.
It cannot be denied that trees and other
plants transmit to their offspring their own
nabits and qualities as certainly as animals
ind man. Like begets like. Therefore seeds
sr cuttings from diseased trees are very
jkrly to produce diseased trees. Healthy,
ihrifty and productive trees can only be
produced from seeds or cuttings from
nealthy, thrifty and productive trees having
i good ancestry. And the same law applies
10 all other plants. If we want to improve
sur cotton, corn, wheat or vegetables, we
ielect seeds from the best plants from year
iqyear; but apple seeds from the cider
press, and pear seeds from the berry press
>r canneries, and peach seeds from any where
ire deemed good enough to grow stocks upon
which our orchard trees are grafted. So
we have plenty of cheap young fruit trees,
tew good old ones and little fruit. Many
failures of fruit trees to prosper have been
Jharged to soil and climate when the true
Pause of failure was in the inherent weak
less of the trees themselves.
Now% we have grown LeConte pear trees
for twenty years and experimented with
'.hem in every possible way and we have
earned that only what we call the Pedigree
LeConte tree—that is, those grown from
Puttings in a direct line from the original
LeConte tree are reliable. This original
LeConte is in Liberty county, Ga., nearly
forty years old, a giant in size, and a model
if health, beauty and productiveness. Pedi
gree LeContes are not contaminated with
:he sap of a diseased or weaker-growing
'ind. They are really part of the original
tree, having roots of their own. These trees
ire vassly superior to any grafted LeContes.
They are uniformly thrifty and healthy and
make very big trees, and yield annual and
largo crops of fruit.
But the mere fact that a tree is grown
froij a cutting is nothing in its favor. Ido
not use cuttings from grafted trees nor their
"tfepring. A cutting is but part of a tree,
ind if the sap of the tree is contaminated
the sap of the cutting is also, and a healthy
tree cannot be growu from a diseased cut
ting.
Chicken Cholera.
H. B. Greer, in the July number of the
S o'.dhem Cultivator , gives some excellent
suggestions relative to preventing the chick
“n cholera. In July, August and Septom
ber he says dead grown chickens are met
with everywhere, under the roosts, about
the fence comers and in the alleys. At this
season of the year that dread scourge of the
poultry yard, chicken cholera, stalks abroad
and its victims are legion.
But why come in the autumn rather than
*t any other season of the year) Becauso
iPII it is that our birds are all run down
'“fter laying and hatching season, their nat-
J, al vitality is at a minimum, the heat is
pkrnse, liee are numerous, water frequently
ts foul, mid they are beginning to moult,
"'inch latter ordeal of itself generally fin
i lies the oldest and most feeble. The stench
'iat pervades some chicken-houses of a hot
"'innncr night would kill a human being to
•nhalo it ono woek. Then why subject the
"Is to such unhealthy conditions and ex
[ret them to remain strong and vigorous,
"btilnto that old hen-house. Knock off
Ul ® P'ankg at the top of the sides; you can
rui '* fhem on again in <thc late fall. Lattice
U P a "d leave plenty of ventilation. Lot
a ' r pass through it liko a sieve. All the
foekons ' v ant in the way of a house at night
11 the summer time is a shelter from the

the earth in tho bottom of it. White-
R ls b it thoroughly inside and out. Wash

' r ‘ "u vitriol) and throw fresh lime under
atl J them. Don’t stop with the first ef
"ls ’ make it a rule to renovate once n
''""k, carrying out the droppings, washing
’’ perches and sprinkling tho lime about,
‘■’'c it that the fowls have a good place
"allow Without their dust-bath tho
j! 00r things will be overrun with lice. The
' l t’t to them is what water is to us. It
"Wses and invigorates them ami improves
“ir plumage. Give them plenty of pure
"nter. This matter must not be neg
-lat this season of the year. Through
H ' l- 'h'inking water we may possess the
’"‘‘ r to stay their arch enemy, cholera;
, !x "*d keep on band a solution as follows:
t,su H'e hi two gallons of water half a
pound of sulphate of iron and one ounce of
sulphuric acid; add this to their drinking
water of a morning in preparation of a tea
spoonful to each pint of water. This may
ho given three times a week for the next
three months with most excellent results.
If, however, any of the birds show any in
dications of dysentery, omit the solution for
a w hile and put a little sulphate of copper
(blue stone) in the water—just enough to
turn the latter slightly blue. This remedy
has never failed to check up and set right
our chickens whenever they exhibited any
signs of dysentery or cholera. Keep plenty
of fresh lime about and give the fowls ac
cess to green food, and then you need have
no fears of chicken cholera
How to Fight a Common Enemy.
Insects are tho enemy of farmers and fruit
growers. As Prof. Cook, of the Michigan
College of Agriculture, recently remarked
of plant lice, insects respect neither kind
nor locality. Their harmful work is seen in
greenhouses, on window plants and on al
most all outdoor vegetation. Nor do they
confine themselves to any single part of a
plant. Some work on the roots and sap the
vitality of herb or tree. Others draw their
nourishment from the stems and twigs and
thus blight the plants. Others, again, suck
all the vitality from the bud and foliage.
Many work on both roots and leaves.
All cultivated vegetables, grains and trees
have their characteristic louse enemies.
Vegetation lice pass the winter as little,
dark oblong eggs, usually fastened to the
buds. IV ith the warm days of spring these
eggs hatch, and so rapidly do the lice in
crease that soon, by the end of May say,
they may be counted by millions. Many
single apple buds, for instance, harbor as
many as fifty of the pests.
Prof. Cook says he has found nothing so
satisfactory in treating plant lice as the
kerosene and soap mixture. “To make this
use one-fourth pound of hard soap, prefera
bly whale oil soap, and one quart of water,
or one quart of common soft soap and one
quart of water. This is heated till the soap
is dissolved, when one pint of kerosene oil is
added and the whole agitated till a perma
nent emulsion or mixture is formed. Tho
agitation is easily secured by use of a force
pump, pumping the liquid with force back
into the vessel holding it. Then add water
so that there shall be kerosene in the pro
portion of one to fifteen.”
This liquid must be applied with energy.
If used for the adult lice or for eggs or newly
hatched lice, and it is not effective, it is only
because it is applied too gently. A good
force pump must be employed and dash the
liquid on the plants so that it will scatter
everywhere, reach every egg, even though
these are crowded between the buds and
stem, every louse, even though sheltered by
leaves. Thoroughness is the only effective
method.
The Bones—Save Them.
There are a great many farmers who do
not seem to understand how much good
bones can do the soil, and if they do they
make no effort to collect them. Do not,
says the New Yor'- Star, throw away a
single bone but direc the cook to save them
from the kitchen and table, and put them
in a box or barrel for safekeeping. As often
as you get a good lot put them down in
strong ashes layer, by layer first a layer of
ashes, then a layer of bones, and so on,
taking care to wet each layer of ashes pretty
thoroughly as you proceed. Leave a litt'e
space at the top of the barrel for holding
water, and pour on some when you finish
packing and some at intervals as appears to
be needed. In three months’ time, if the
ashes are strong, and you keop them con
stantly wet, you will have a mass of ma
nure worth the handling, and good for
com, wheat or any crop you may wish to
grow.
Get all the bones you can to treat in this
way. A good many, no doubt, may he
picked up about the farm, where at present
they are doing very little good. Hire your
boys or your neighbor’s children to collect
bones for you, paying them so much per
pound or bushel. Doubtless the boys know
where there are a good many bones as places
where the carcass of a sheep, cow or horse
was thrown after it died. Bones are a most
durable and excellent fertilizer and can he
thoroughly softened by putting them in
strong wet ashes, such as comes from oak,
hickory and other hard woods. It is cheaper
than sulphuric acid for dissolving them and
much safer to handle. Don’t throw away
hones, but save all and convert them into
fertilizer.
Balky Horses.
Notwithstanding the fact that there are a
great many balking horses in every part of
the country very few people seem to know
how to treat them. The National Stock
man says that the following different ways
of treating balky horses are recommended:
First. Pat the horse on the neck, examine
him carefully, first on one side and then on
the other; if you can get him a handful of
grass give it to him; then jump into the
wagon and give the word go, and he will
generally obey. Second. Taking tho horse
out of the shafts and turning him around in
a circle until he is giddy will generally stai t
him. Third. Another way to cure a balky
horse is to place your hand over his nose and
shut off his wind until he wants to go.
Fourth. Then, .again, take a couple of turns
of stout twine around the forelegs just be
low the knee, tight enough for the horse to
feel it; tie in a bow knot; at the first click
he will probably go dancing off. After going
a short distance you can get out nnd remove
the string to prevent injury to the tendons.
Fifth. Again, you can try the following:
Take the tail of the horse between the hind
legs and tie it by a cord to tho saddle girth.
Sixth. The last remedy is as follows: Tie a
string around the horse's car, close to the
head, this will divert his attention and start
him.
Household.
Bkcipe for Blackberry Jam.—Weigh
the Lorries, then wash them; put in a pre
sewing kettle and mash thoroughly; add
one-half pound of sugar to each pound of
berries. Lot it boil rapidly till thick, stir
ring to prevent scorclnug, which it does
very easily.
Recipe for Blackberry Wine.— Pick
the berries, mash them up good and press
the juice out in a vessel; then strain the
juice through flue cloths; put the juice in
your keeping-vessel and put in an egg; the
;' K g will sink to the bottom at first; then
nut in sugar and sweeten the juice until the
egg rises to the top; when you have it sweet
enough—the action of the egg shows how
much sugar to put in—let it tan<i a
days, skimmed every day; then rack oIT.
rich Apple Puddino (Baked).— Four
pounds of good flavored apples one-quarter
pound of good butter; one cupful of cream,
four eggs; sugar to taste; rind of one lemon;
some grated nutmeg. Boil the apples to a
pul.) mid. while hot, stir in the butter and
set aside. When cold add the eggs (wel
lx<uten), the lemon-rind (grated), the grutorl
nutmeg, and sugar to taste and stirah thor
oughly together. Have a deep pie-dish lined
with good pastry, put ui the mixture aud (

bake half an hour in a good oven. Serve
with cream sauce or custard.
Recipe for Bread.—Boil three Irish po
tatoes soft, mash fine, dissolve one yea.-t
cake in a teacupful of lukewarm water, pour
this on the potatoes, mix well, set in a warm
place at night, next morning add one pint
of lukewarm water and stir in Hour to the
proper consistency; then set in a warm place
to rise; when it rises add one egg, a table
spoonful of sugar, lieat up well; have ready
six pints of flour; put in a little butter and
a little salt, pour on your yeast, add a little
warm water to makeup the flour; knead
well, mold in pans, put in warm place to
rise; when light bake.
Black Currant Pudding.—Stew a tea
cupful of rice and two ounces of sugar in as
much milk as will covert. Take care that
it does not burn; let stew for fifteen min
utes, take off the fire and when nearly cold
stir in ono ounce of butter, three well-beaten
eggs and three tablespoonfuls of cream.
Now lay some currants in a deep pie-dish,
and sugar well (black currants take u great
deal of sugar), place in a good oven and
allow to remain fifteen minutes; then take
out and pour the mixture over the currants
and place in the oven. Bake thirty minutes.
Serve with sweet sauce.
Farm Notes.
Castor oil is said to be an excellent lubri
cant for all kinds of farm implements. A
good wagon-grease may bo made of equal
paints of tallow, castor oil, crude petroleum
and kerosene.
The man who buys good stock and then
neglects it is on a par w ith the one who
plants an orchard of excellent fruit trees
and then permits it to be trampled and rav
aged by stock.
Steady application is wbat counts in any
business, especially in farming, for in this
employment a uay or an hour wasted is
usually more than loss of time, for it is op
portunity gone.
A successful farmer in Minnesota says
there is profit to him in sheep with wool at
12 cents a pound. Wo say a small flock of
sheep on every farm would be profitable if
they grew bristles instead of wool.
Dr. T. H. Hoskins is confident that the
farmer who by careful raising and selection
of seed perfects his own supply will in ten
or fifteen years have what can rarely be
equaled by anything from a distance.
For gapes put ten drops spirits turpentine
in a pint of water and give no other liquid
to the chicks to drink. Put a teaspoonful
of turpentine in a quart of corn meal and
feed. Turpentine instantly destroys the
gape worm.
Turn the sheep upon those lands that give
the most trouble with weeds. Sheep prefer
short grazing and wall eat nearly all kinds
of young weeds as soon as they shoot above
ground. They also scatter their manure
evenly and benefit the soil.
Place ashes freely around the young peach
trees hut do not use any stable manure.
Chemical fertilizers are excellent, especially
the potash salts. Well decomposed compost,
made from old sod and scrapings, makes an
excellent fertilizer for them. The ground
should be kept clean.
For the prevalent disease of scaly legs in
fowls, caused by a minute insect, rubbing
the legs with an ointment of sulphur, kero
sene, etc., is advised. The remedy is good
enough, but a better one is immersing the
feet and legs in a tomato can of kerosene.
Do this every three days until a cure is ef
fected.
While the strawberries are throwing out
runnei-s the earth between tiie rows should
t>e kept very loose, and all the grass and
weeds removed from around the old plants,
even if it become necessary to hand-pull
them out, as the strawberry needs plenty of
moisture, of which it is deprived when the
rows are thick with weeds.
Prof. Riley gives the following remedy
for mildew of the grape vine: Thirty-five
pounds of sulphate of copper is dissolved in
fifty-three gallons of water; thirty-three
pounds of quicklime is slaked in eight gal
lons of water. The lime and water mixture
is then poured into the solution of copper.
In using keep the mixture separate.
Cabbage plants grow best when they are
frequently hoed. Too much manure cannot
be applied to cabbage, nor can the ground
be ioosened around the plants too much.
Late crops may he pul out now, ii a shower
occur, but the ground should be well pre
pared if a good crop be exjiected. The cab
bage grows on all classes of soils if well cul
vated.
The following is given as a good prepara
tion for the destruction of the beetle or po
tato bug: Take three pounds of lime, slake,
and add six to eight gallons of water and a
tablespoonful of concentrated lye. Mix all
together and apply to the vines with a com
mon sprinkler. It will work like a charm,
ono or two applications completely ridding
the patch of the beetles and larva;.
The Rural New Yorker says - “A hog
must root or die.” This is true in two senses.
It must root to find its most acceptable food
and its health is better secured by this natu
ral proclivity. Opportunities should be af
forded for it. A fallow field may be usually
turned over in this way, nnd if it is sown
with a few quarts of corn occasionally it
will encourage the pigs in their useful laliors.
• Even the farmer does not always have
pure milk for his own use. The quality of
the food, condition of the animals, purity of
the wafer, the atmosphere of the stables and
the habits of the person who performs the
milking are ail important factors and affect
the quality of the milk. No two cows give
milk of the same quality, while farmers
differ in their inodes of feeding their ani
mals.
Popular Science.
lodine, hitherto known in nature only in
combination with other elements, is now
found in a free state in the water of Wood
hall Spa, near Lincoln, in England. The
water is colored a decided brown by the
iodine.
It will interest botanists to know that the
Indian Government lias arranged foracom
plete botanical survey of India. The coun
try is to tie divided into four districts, each
district to be under the charge of an emi

Many artificial flavoring extracts are used
in foods and drinks, such as amylic valeri
anate, amylic butyrate, ethlic butyrate,
propylic ether and uaprylic alcohol, which
imitate the odor and flavor of tire apple, the
pear, tho pineapple, the strawberry and the
raspnerry. Tneso substances have been
tested by two French chemists, who find
them poisonous iu considerable quantities,
hut harmless in the usual small doses.
Screws that are too smull for separate
treatment may be cleaned from rust as fol
lows: Take a pound of screws and place
them in a small l>x—a cigar box will do;
put a small quantity of oil on them nnd
shake for n minute; then put a piece of cot
ton waste in the l>ox and repeat for a min
ute; finally, put a handful of sawdust in tho
box, and shake for another minute or so,
and remove the sawdust by sifting it from
tho screws in a fine sieve. The screws will
come out well cleaned.
Leisure Hour states that in Germany the
blacksmith, when finishing a horseshr,
punches a hole in tho two enils, and when
the shoe is cold lie tajm in a screw thread
and screws into the shoe, when on the horse’s
foot, a sharp pointed stud of an inch in
length, and with shoes thus fitted the horse
travels securely over the worst jsissihlo road,
either when riding or driving; draught I
horses are shod in the same way. When
tho horse comes to the stable the groom un
screws the jxmited stud and screws in abut
ton, ro that no damage can happen to the
horse, and tho screw holes are prevented |
from filling. When tho horse is going out
the groom takes out the button ami screws
in tne pointed stud, nnd there is no fear of
the horse coming hack with broken knees or
strained sinews, and the public are spared
the sight of horses down or slipping in all
directions.
