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 r,,l >. Clean it out thoroughly nnd loosen the earth in tho bottom of it. White- R ls b it thoroughly inside and out. Wash 11 Wasting perches with copperas water ' 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 ( THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY. JULY 18, 1887. 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 nent botanist. 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.
