GRAFTING
A Lesson In Horticulture With
The Bee Hive McCook
ssgfisgsi
One
Serious Omission
My neighbor Brown came to the gar
den fence airtl said
How do you do your grafting
My grafting said I
Yes grafting apple trees I want
to try it myself
Oh I exclaimed Yes yes Well
In the first place I begin by lying
that is I lie In bed to think the whole
thing out in every detail I watch my
opportunity and on the first fiue day I
steal a few hours from my business
Then I borrow a saw a steel one
and with it I rob the tree upon which
I want to graft of some of its larger
branches This I try to do in such a
way that the loss of the branches will
not be noticed These limbs should
not be left lyiug that is lying on the
ground They are unsightly and may
attract the attention of passersby
They should be hustled behind the lat
ticework screen at once So far so
good Now let me see oh yes I
rob another tree of a few twigs hav
ing buds on them and insert them in
the ends of the sawed branches on the
tree Then I take some beeswax and
tallow and melt them together This
must be thoroughly mixed Work it
for all youre worth to make it pliable
Finally with this I try to hide all ap
pearance of the graft from sunlight
and air and there you are the job U
done
I see said Brown and I tiil k
Im foxy enough to do the trick the
first time trying Many thanks
Shortly after I heard Brown telling
his wife how I explained the process
This is -the way he had it
First he says you must be a
good liar then you watch your chance
and steal a half day from the com
panys time then you steal a saw
then you defraud the tree of some
branches which you -must hide so no
body will get on then you rob some
bodys tree of twigs put them in the
ends of the branches and cover your
tracks with beeswax and tallow
Said Browns wife I dont think
that man canbe trusted He has two
kinds of grafting mixed auO besides
he dfclnt tril you where to steal the
apple trees Judge
Russian Marriages
The celebration of a Russian mar
riage sometimes extends over three
days At the wedding festivities the
bride is expected to dance with the
men one after another until she drops
with sheer fatigue It is a matter of
pride with her to keep going as long
as possible and it Is not unusual to
find a bride dancing gayly after three
days and nights of vigorous frolic
When a girl is dancing with a man she
always holds his pipe It would be
regarded as extremely rude if a man
should continue to smoke his pipe in
such circumstances London Tit Bits
