In the winter season, when out -door work is not convenient, root grafting is l ax el g y practiced in the nurseries, mainly in multiplying the apple. The young seedling—the root -to be graft- ed, Le usually one year old, though. sometimes two. The root or stock and the scion are fitted together by splice grafting or teingue grafting, says Na- tional Stockman the joint being tied by some material that will give way during the first summer's growth—nar- row strips of old calico or muslin, pre- pared by being dipped in melted graft- ing wax. Whether to take a whole root for the graft, or merely a piece of a root has long been a subject of controversy. In the former case a short scion of the variety to a mul- tiplied, is taken.; in the latter case a much longer scion is require&Van Mons, the eminent Belgian authority on fruits and fruit trees, favored, the latter for two reasons. Firs " The smallest quantity of the stook 's used ads a second, because the lower portion of the scion being thus planed in the ground, it will after a timet ow out roots from that portion, and at 1 st will be actually growing on its own roots," This would seem at first sigh to be best, but as many fine varietie are of only moderately vigorous growth it b u r First, I throw a t, s 0 will be apparent that to graft tit on a more vigorous root will be be ficial ; while the same treatment c not injure the strong growing va sties, Thus, it has been urged, by' so only right way is to use t whole root. lionsiderable stress is p1 ed on the importance of the collar the tree being kept in its proper p• time near the surface—"betwixt wi and water," as the sailor would s There i something in this, undou • But in a very young tree su is generally used for root graftin adaptation readily takes place, and young tree aceommodates itself changed circumstances. If there anything in this, however, a budd tree would be perfection itself. In the discussions on the subject 110 0 has ever objected to budding, except requires to be done at a time of ye when there is plenty of other work do. Other things being equal, the bu deli three is to be preferred. 'Yet must be added that no objection c justly be made to a well grown tr with plenty of first-class roots ; whet ter it be produced by budding or graf bag, or whether the grafting be on whole root or a piece of a root. But t kinds of moderate growth should have as much as possible of the strongest growing stock, some of them giving most satisfaction when grafted five or six feet above the ground. The earlier in. the winter root graft- ing can be done, the better, as this gives more ', e time for 40• h information ' do n of a — c ilixs the preparation for growth in spring. Under favorable conditions, callusing proceeds at the joints effect - leg a union of scion and stook, and at other cut surfaces from which in due time roots will be ernitted. The favor- able conditions are 1, a moderate de- gree of moist urs, and 2, a temperature considerably above the freezing point. Packing the grafts in damp eaxth or sand gives the first of these condi- tions, and the cellar, or some other place safe from frost, the second. The planting out should be done as, soon as the soil will work freely in rising. The whole of the seven inches (the most common length. of n the a b graft) should be placed in the ground with the excep- on of the upper bud of the scion. nd the most important thing in plant - ng, after putting the soil in fine filth, s making the earth firm around the lower part of the graft. Any one not accustomed to the use of the dabble ill do better in the planting by open - g a uarrow trench with the spade. The whole process will be interesting. ut• in moat cases it will be better—en ring time—to buy the young trees tidy for setting' out in the orchard. articularly will this be the best if e nurseryman is near at hand, and known to be an intelligent, reliable an. Otherwise, the home grafting may save from wasted years and money in eating varieties not suited to the lo- lity, to say nothing of the greater anger in bringing San Jose scale and her maladies along with the trees. HEIHER CALVES FOR THE DAIRY, Constitutional vigor and inherited iry tendency are absolutely essen- al ; they- are the foundation on which dairy herd must be built. When acalf dropped, says a writer to Farmer's Advocate, we allow it to remain with dam for a few hours only, just long. Hough for it to secure a good square cal of the mother's milk. It is then aced in a clean and roomy box stall, an taught to drink, usually at the rst or second trial. We find that the v does not fret so much, and the calf erns to drink with, less trouble, when follow this plan. We feed whole ik for six weeks or two montlis,about stn or twelve pounds per day at first, d gradually increase to about twen- pou'nds ; two feeds per day are giv- but three would be preferable for first month. When the calf is three four weeks old we put a little brain chopped oats in the feed box after wing the milk, and in a few days the respective cow cultivates a taste for an, oats, oil, meal, and clover hay, hich are freely supplied. Whole milk all that is necessary for the first nth, after which the ruminating sto- ma • begins to develop and the calf able to Matte a start on solid foods. never feed any gruel, jelly, por- ge, or anything of that kind, Pro - ring to develop the powers of mas- tion from the start. When the sol - foods are readily taken we change dually to akirn milk, of which we fortunate enough to have an abun- nt supply at nearly. all times of the ale The skim milk is continued un the calf ` is six or eight snonths old, d sometimes even longer. We aim keep our heifers in thrifty growing ditton,at all times, but never fat. em ne- a.n- ri- some he ao- of Osi- nd ay. ubt- uch to to is ed all ne it ar eWe should experiment with different it feeds, and ways of feeding, and if we an make butter we should study the best ee plan of getting the Dream from the h_ milk, and making the butter. In the first place, all cows that do not come a up to a certain standard in yield should he be disposed of ; this done, we should v next find out just hew much feed our cows will profitably consume. It won't do to feed a cow a large quantity of expensive feed unless she will convert the most of it into rich milk. If she doesn't do this there is something wrong; either the cow is not a good one e has been fed properly, P r er P Y, Ada' ixyman in our neighborhood re- cently complained that his cows were not doing well ; they were grade Jer- seys, but the butter yield was very low; the cows had plenty to eat, as they were fat. Here was a great loss, and to rem - ed i t the e owner should make a de - el ed change in his feed or feeding, or both. Sometimes. a little change in the feed of the cows will make a great oessary exercise, but I have •noticed that the majority of calves get a little too much of that article in their search for something edible. 'As heifers ad.- yams d- vans in age they should be fed large- ly on the more bulky foods, in order"to )extend to some extent the abdomen and give ample to o' g Iter capacity. Ensilage, b p P y roots, car fodder, n out straw, etc., with, vary little grain, will carry them through the winter in hearty and vig- orous condition, and they will be less affected by the change to grass in the spring than grain -fed animals. Oar bolters are generally Dred to calve at twenty-four to twenty-seven naonehs old.* We have never had sat- isfactory results from those that did not calve until they were three years old,. They acquire the habit of put- ting on beef, and•fke. all bad habits, it sticks to them, After the heifer is (in calf she should have plenty of food in order to develop the milk glands, and for the ,last month or two before calving a°likeral grain ration is of great service in producing a large ud,- der and in giving her a start on the road to dairy success. Moat cows are either made or marred during the first period of gestation. It is. not safe to feed much grain to an aged�cow just before calving, owing to the danger of milk fever, but two-year-old heifers very rarely suffer from this disease. After the` heifer drops her first calf she should be fed sparingly for a few da till Ys she regains hen al con- dition, after which the amountt of suc- culent food should be gradually in- cireased till she gets about all she will take, in order to encourage the milk- i tendency and further develop the milk glands. Under this system of management we have never lost a calf and scarcely ever had a sick one. If a calf shows symptoms of scours a little starch dissolved in water is added to the milk, but iii a bad case of scours it would be best to eliminate the poi- son from the system by means of a dose or two of castor oil before giving starch, laudanum or whatever correc- tive is used. Visitors at "Maple Hill" almost invariably express their admir- ation for the large and thrifty calves, and we feel proud that six years of persistent care and labor along the above lines has enabled us to build up a •dairy herd that has few superiors anywhere, in heavy production. rich breeding, and uniformity of type.

No Efforts to Allay the Terrible Suffering in Andnlnsta, If Europe were not so engrossed with war news the state of affairs in the southern provinces of Spain would at tract universal attention. While the Government is spending millions to crush the Cuban insurgents, thousands of poor people at home are suffering the pangs of hunger and hundreds have died of actual starvation. Such a situ- ation would cast indelible disgrace up- on any other Government in Europe; but the Spanish Government,appears to see no cause for shame. Queen Regent Christina, to be sure, has urged vain- ly that immediate measures be taken to save these wretched people even if it is necessary to suspend the despatch of troops to Cuba in order to obtain necessary funds. Worn out with worries and anxie- ties, the Queen Regent is now suffer- ing from what the court physicians call extreme nervous prostration. But then, of course, she is not a Spanish woman, but a mere northerner. Castilian nerves are stronger and not affected by maw- kish sentiment. The trouble originated in the failure of blue crops, owing to the prolonged drought following previous bail years. Farriers everywhere were ruined, but despite this, strenuous efforts were made by tax collectors to obtain the full payment of taxes, whish, since the outbreak of the 'insurrection in Cuba, have been intolerable in amount. The bankruptcy of the landownees and far- mers had the natural effect upon the general body of agricultural workers, who now have been driven to something' very like rebellion. At this moment bands of desperate men are scouring the country side com- mitting all kinds of excesses. The octroi buildings (where taxes arecollected up- on produce coming into the towns) have been sacked, farms pillaged and burned, shops looted, and yet the Government cannot pparesoldiers to oppressthe cannot epare soldiers to suppress the brigands or money to succor the stare- ing• people.

Russia's Blunders at the Beginning and ssrke 'o� �' 6 Toward the o —D y Cl so lilita ry Operations Around rievna—The Treaty of Sau Stefano and the Berlin Con. gnus, On Antra 23, the Emperor Alexander II. of R'ussia, after reviewing his armies at Kisaheneff and Ungbeni, on the plains of Bessarabia, proclaimed war upon, the Turk. It had been the de - Wee of the Emperor to make the war the previous awtuen,a, immediately af- ter the clasipg of the Constantinople conference that met at the termination of the Bea. .vis,n,"rar; but the uncertain- ty of being able to keep the communi- cation of thet army across the Danube during the winter caused it to be defer- red. to the spring of 1877. From the declaration of war to mideiummer the preparations for the passage of the Dan'ube went an uninterruptedly. The neutrality of Austria had been secured by the consent of Rtussia to her occu- pation of Bosnia and Heszo ina after the war, and the promise that the Rus - Meta movements in Roumania, which was used as a base agai'ns't the Turks, (shank). net extend westward of the Akita,. By the first, Austria secured the timberland of Dalmatia and the road toward Salonica, and in the second the superstitious among diplomats dis- owned the eventual boundary between turfs and i4. tris north of the Dian(ube,, The Tilirkish army ini Bulgaria that was assembled to meet the Russian in- vasion was divided into two separate armies, the western force under Osman Pasha, with headquarters at Widdin on the Daniube, close to the Servian frontier, and the eastern, under the personal command of iAbdel Lerim Pasha, Sirdar Einem, or generalissimo of the whole Turkish army in Europe, en the Quadrilateral, with Shumla as. headquarters. The principal fortresses along the Danube, from Widdin to the Black Sea ,w'ere strongly garrisoned, and an Egyptian contingent under Prince Bassani field Varna on the It Black Sea. The • TUREIS$1 PLAN OF DEFENCE had been, drawn up by von Moltke, sub - 1 jeof; to the contingencies of the Rus- sians forcing the passage of the Danube an a. flank o0.* the centre of the line. The facilities affotrded by the railways through Ronanania decided the Rula- siari staff 'to make the passage of the Tiore. is at. centre. The plan that had. bean drawn up for the Turks was to offer only a faint resistance to the passage of the Danube, but so soon as the Russian army bad takes( ground on Turkish territory to close in on it from both flanks. A few days before Use, cross%n gt took place several Rus- sian officers found their way tot Plevna in the disguise of Bulgarian peasants, made ;these reconnoissances of the neighborhood and fotund their way back into Ro+umrinia. At that mom- ent the Turkish force at Plevna, was bait ane company or iuuscanrtz or ter- ritorial 'militia, and there was not a sytmptomi .to aboer that the osd Sirdar.

In- stead of pushing out as once for Plevna, they wasted precious days waiting fox the reduction, of Nikapoiis, which was commanded by Hassan Pasha, a nep- hew of the Sirdar Ekreon. By the time that was effected and a Russian brigade sent forward to Henna, the advanced guard of Osman Pasha's army that was advancing from Widdin had thken up its position on the sites se- lected for the defences of the place, and was engaged in thlrowing up the tem- porary redoubts and breastworks that afterward developed into the formid- able lines before which the Russians After....

The attempt oS the Russians to drive off the Unica was repulsed, and the rapid arrival of the reinforcements enabled the Tuirks to complete their defences before the Rhissian General ho f i d shz f >Re nitfa forces in hand to CARRY A RY T SEM BY ASSAULT, White, Osman, Pasha, ably seconded by his staff, carried dui in. the most admirable, manner his part of the Turkish . plan, the execution of the part of it reserved for himself by the Sirdar Barrern, WAS nlulified by the refusal of the Sultan to semi farweed the rein- forcements which had been called for until he had divulged his plan of cam- paign. Abdul Scrim as obstinately refused, being well aware that the in- formation would soon find itsway to the Ressiaa camp through agents in the palace. The Sultan,, in a moment of Passion, ordered the old pasha's dis- grace, and he was sent a prisoner to Lemnos, where he died a few years after. During the confusion that en- sued the Russians profited by the Tur- kish inactions. They pushed a strong body of cavalry across the Balkans. un- der Gen. Gourkho, by the Hairs Boghaz, a pass to the eastward of the Shipka. aging around to the right after" de- scending into the valley of the Tundja. Gourkho passed rapidly to the west- ward throe h Eski Saghra and through Kezanlik, from which he turned north ap t11e Shipka Mond and established himself firmly on, theSummit of the pass. From there the Russians never were dislodged during the rest of the war. The Ressian,s north of the Shipka Rost no time in establishing their connections wit h Gaurkho through Tirnova and Gabrova, which the Turks made several efforts to break, but with u out success. The Sultan, terri- fied with the turn affairs had taken. called Mehemet Ali Pasha from Novi Bazar, where he was watching; the; Ser- vian and. Montenegrin frontiers, and invested him, with the Supreme com- mand of the alrmy in Binlgeria, and at the same time ordered Suleiman Pasha, who had succeeded Mehemet Ali in his command, to advance by (arced marches to Shipka. Mehemet Ali, immediately an arrival at Shiumala, prore.eded to or- ganize the army, which had now receiv- ed the required reinforcements for a forweird movement. The corps of Ahmed Eyotib Pasha, which acted as a covering force to Rustchuk, had sev- eral minor engagements, with the coops under the Cestr{'witch, afterward Alexander III., whish was guarding the Russians left and had pushed its post up the valley of the. Lora toward. h7irnla. From •bless Mehemet Ali drove them back, in a series of minor actions at Karaha ankeii, and I{atze- levo, off the plateau into the valley of the Yankra, brut received a cheek at Tcl ai i rkeni, and from want of transport and provisions was compelled to fall back on his line running from Ras - grad. on 'the Varna-Rustchuk Rail- way, to Eski Demme, and Oman Bazar in the Balkans. Meanwhile the Rus'-iens had been re- pulsed in, two succeeeive assaults on Fiesta WITH TERRIFIC LOSS, and the Refumaniau army was called to the r u esc a Here as elsewhere e throughout the campaign. th e enormous s superiority of the i1Lartini-Peabody rifle, with which the Turkswere arm- ed, exhibited itself over the trans- formed Iirinka rifle that was in the hands of the Russians. The super- iority of the Turkish arm over the Rus- sian wee a ut ire as even as seven to three in point of range. Mehemet Ali, having reorganized his forces and form- ed a new plan of campaign, sent in- strnictions to Osman to evacuate Plevna and retire either on Orkhanieh toward Sofia or on Lovdsha, immediately south of Plevna, as he, thought most exped- ient. Osman replied that as soon as he had. sent away his fir(1 and wounded he would act on instructions. At the same time Mehemet Ali telegraphed to Suleiman,. who was wasting the flower of his army in ineffectaal at t emits to carry Shipka, to leave a force sufficient to bold the Rrssia.ns on the pass in observation and more round to Osman Bazar by forced marches to join him, The outcome of these orders was that the Sultan telegraphed Mehemet Ali that Osman had received orders from himself to hold on to I'levna, and Sul- ateen to remain at Sbipka, and that henceforth they were detached from his orders. The intrigues against Mehemet Ali, beta ase of his Germant origin, ended in his ultimate superces- sion by Suleiman. With the change of commanders in the Turkish army and the arrival of the Rus;,ian rein- forceanents, armed with the Berdan rifle and Todleben as commander, the fo'r'tune of war turned. The efforts Suleiman made, first round. Rustehuk and then in the Balkans towardr Tirno- va, to beak in, on the Russian com- munications were repulsed at every point. Osman succumbed to the block- ade Todleben 'had established round Plevna, and his attempt to out his way oat wars frustrated by the Bus-' sian General, to whom he surrounded with the whole of his ar,nCy. With the collapse of the defense of Plevna the campaign north of the Bal- kans was over. The retreat of the Turks over the Balkans and into Rou- m:elie degenerated first into a fight and then into a. general overthrow. A portion of the army found its way i having lost its artillery and throws away its arras, to Adrianople, from portwhere it was conveyed to the Tchatald- ja limes before Constantinople. Other i ions reached the Aegean coast I over the Rhodope Mountains, and were i picked up by 'Turkish warships, and ' part reformed at Gallipoli under Sabri I Pasha winder the guns of A •BRITISH SQUADRON. The rest ivem+t as to reinforce the army covering 1Constaniuiople, (Which .was placed under Mehermeti Ali. The ar.._- ra val of the Russian. Arany at San Ste- fano and the negotiations of the treaty of peace followed in due course. The Turkish Commissioners, Safuet and Server Dachas, signed it only under the threat that if their signatures were not attached before the sun had gone below the horizon the Russian Army would advance at daybreak next morn- ing to the assault of Constantinople.
