Col, j poudenoe to the Journal of Agriculture:
There appeared ia the December
int'.ibcr of the American Journal of
II j ri 'tf'itj lure an article ou grafting the
pr c vine.'froin the pea of Baiauel
JM.Jcr, of Blulllon, Mo., wherein he
advocates tlie grafting of the grape
vine above ground when the vine was
In full vigor of growth. Now I do
not doubt that Mr. Miller is success
ful by that method, but I do know
that it Li not a very successful method
in other bands, and I can" nee many
, objections to his plan, and I think I
' know of a better, which I shall pro
ceed to give for the benefit of your
readers.
My method is to saw or cut off the
vine from four to six inches under the
surface of the earth, selecting a good
and smooth place for the insertion of
the scion, The stock I split with a
sharp, thin-bladed knife, being care
ful to cut rather than to split, espec
ially the bark on the side where 1 in
tend to insert the scion. I do not cut
transversely across the grain of the
stock, as Mr. Miller and others recom
. mend, but make the split straight
With the grain and as near the center
of the stoc k as possible. The scion I
cut wedge shape, as in common cleft
grafting, being very careful to have
the bark of stock and scion fit nicely.
If the stock or scion is three-fourths
of an inch or more in diameter, and
the job has been done in a workman
like manner, the scion will be firm
enough without any tie; if, however,
the stock is not strong enough to hold
the scion firmly. I wind a string two
. or three times about the stock, near
the top, and tie, using no wax on the
string or union of stock and scion. The
earth is then firmly pressed about the
pclon up to the top bud; a Jittle saw
du?t put on tho ton to protect the bud
.t and keep the earth from baking; a
small twig should be stuck in close by
the scion, so as to mark the exact spot
.so it may not be injured In hoeing cr
! weeding. . -
The best time is early in spring, as
'soon as severe freezing weather is ov
er. Home do it in the fall, which has
the advantage that the stock and scion
will callus sooner than that done in
spring, and will consequently make a
. greater growth, and there is usually
not so great a hurry then as in
. spring; but the disadvantage is that
unless specially protected the scion is
apt to get drawn out of the stock by
the action of the frost.
I have grafted in this manner for
three years pat with uniform success,
to that I would just as lieve undertake
to graft a vineyard and insure success
; ts to do so with an apple orchard.
V Last spring I grafted some Concord
with wood of Rogers' Hybrids, and al
though the season was very bad at
least ninety per cent, grew, sb that X
have some five hundred strong vines
of those varieties, some of which made
over one hundred feet of wood.

. . .The Rise In Sugar.
t . The late rise in sugar ought to eug
"gest a lesson to us as a people: It
shows us how wholly we are depen
dent upon other countries for a supply
t of this great staple.
We use in the United States upwards
of four hundred thousand tons of sugar
yearly ; three hundred and fifty thous
and tons of which are imported.
There is at present no lessening of
the supply, but the bare possibility of
next season's supply of sugar from Cu
ba being cut off on account of the troub
les in thatCsland, is sufficient to send
up the price 2-5 per cent, in a single
week. If the -prospect of continued
war in Cuba should be realized, the
rice of sugars is likely to be still more
argely increased, and in case of the
cessation of our foreign commerce,
should we become involved In war
with any foreign power,- nearly our
whole supply would be cut off, and
prices must advance wholly beyond
the reach of all but the wealthy class
es. This would be a National calam
ity greater than the low of av other
tsinylc article of importation. It would
affect every citizen.
We know of but one way to insure
ourselves against such ' a possibility,
and that is to raise our own sugars.
This we are abundantly able to do.
We do not refer now to our capacity
for the production of cane sugar, but
to our far greater capacity for the pro
duction of sugar from the Sugar Beet.
In a recent complete and valuable
work on Farm management, farm
crops, &c.t (entitled "ilow to make
the Farm Pay" ancb published by
"Zciglcr, McCurdy & Co., of Philadel
aphia and Chicago,) is a most excel
lent chapter on the cultivation and
management of Beets for sugar, from
which we make the following extract:
"The production of beet sugar,
throughout the world, is now about
tlx hundred and fifty thousand tons,
or one-fourth of the whole production
of sugar. We have millions of acres
adapted to tho cultivation of the sugar
beet. We have the best labor saving
machineiy of any country on the globe,
and there is no good reason why we
should not produce a million tons of
Bugar annually, within ten years. In
accordance with the practical aim of
this work, we shall endeavor to show
that it is to our pecuniary, and espec
ially to our agricultural interests, to
" do so.. -
r. The cost of raising the beet cannot,
under judicious cultivation, exceed
three dollars per ton, and we think
that they can be raised fur two dollars
per ton. But takiug the highest esti
mate, of three dollars a ton, there is
left a wide margin for profit, as one
ton of beets will yield from one hun
dred and forty to one hundred and
eighty pounds of refined sugar; about
fiiij pounds of molasses suitable for
distillation; five hundred pounds of
leaves, an excellent green fodder ; and
five hundred pounds of pulp, worth
one-third as much as good hay. But
" this is not all ; the beet crop cleans and
prepares the soil ; and. In rotation, is
-rne of the best preceders of any grain
crop. The yield of beets, per acre, va
ries from seventeen to forty-two tons.
We think that, with our improved
methods, an average yield of thirty
tons per acre can readily be secured,
but taking the low average yield of
twenty tons per acre, at five dollars
per ton, is one hundred dollars; de
ducting the highest estimate of the
cost of production, three dollars per
ton, leaves forty dollars per acre clear
profit to the farmer. Considering the
probability of a yield of thirty tons
per acre, costing two dollars per ton,
we have the possibility of a profit of
. ninety dollars peracre.
"There are, at present, but few
manufactories of beet sugar in this
country, but they would spring up
on every side, if farmers once deter
mined to raise the crops, and make
that determination known. Commu
nities settling on the rich soils of the
vest and south, have this matter in
their own hands, as have also the far-
triers in the older states. Let a dozen
farmers, in any section of the country,
ftrree Vvith some capitalist to euttTv
L;ra with beet, and a market will be
at once created. It is for farmers to
. agitate this matter, in their daily con-Lr?-.tion,
in their visits to the city
market?, in farmers' clubs, and
through the columns of their cbos-en
r-ricultural journals. The manufac
ture must be exceedingly profitable
It Si carried on from September to
! : re h, a period when labor is easily
;uman-Jvd. It will employ the ex
' furtu laborers,' at a season M'hen
their services are not required on - the
farm; thus Incidentally conferring 'a
permanent benefit ufoft every com
munity, where such an industry i3
established." The author of the work
from which we quota the above, esti
mates the cost of working one thous
and ton3 of beets as fellows :
1000 tons of beets at to.00.

leaving a profit of over one hundred
percent, on the manufacture, reckon
ing the sugar to be worth only ten
cents per pound. But supposing such
a quantity could be rinsed as to bring
the price of raw sugar down to tight
cents per pound, there would sun te
a profit of over fifty percent, on the
Investment of the manufacturer. Cer
tainly this branch of industry cannot
remain long unoccupied." " :
Frult-Grartlng.
As the time will soon be here when
grafting will be in order, we will re
peat our farmer advice that even7 far
mer should do his own grafting. It is
a very easy operation when once un
derstood, and this is readily done by
seeing it done. A sharp penknife and
a good fine saw arc indispensable.
Splitting the stalk ho that the bark
shall not be bruised and shaping the
scion wedge-fashion both ways, pre
serving the bark also uninjured and
placing the rin of the wood of both
stock and scion together, so that tho
sap can intermingle there is no dan
ger of failure if properly waxed. )Ve
make a shoulder to the graft nnq
think it adds to the certainty of suc
cess, though probably it weakens it,
Wo prefer also two eyes or buds to a
graft, and would rather have only one
than more than two. One year's wood
should be always used when it can be
obtained, as it'is more certain to take
anri grows more vigorously. .
We wish to remind those preparing
graft ing wax, that we have found four
parts of rosin, one part of beeswax, and
one part of beef tallow, to be the best
proportions. Melt them together in a
skillet, (which is the best,) or a tincun,
and mix well. It should remain in
the vessel, and be used as needed.
Twenty or thirty scions can be waxed
without heating the cup. ' Wheii
much grafting Is -to bo done, a little
fire for heating the wax should be
made on the spot, between two brick
or stones. !
We have seen various preparations
for making grafting wax, and we be
lieve we have tried them all, but pre
fer our own. Applying it warm o?
hot docs no injury to the graft. The
object to attain in the. proportion" ia
that the wax will not crack In cool,
dry weather, or run In warm weather.
If, however, upon trial, different pro
portions be reqaired, the foregoing
can be altered, though after trjdng
them in several ways, we have come
back to these. Germantown Tele

Y INTRODUCE to the Ccrn Growera
L of America a new variety of FifU Corn,
rrown some thre years by J .; 'J F. i-i" 1. two
miles north of Henry, irarsiai! loan'v, L. .ni
marked to him f-omthe Pn-u-rt O "irly i leld
Corn." The habits of this new vanrty are as !ol
lows: - First, it matures at lei.t two weks earlier
than our ordinary varieties. Ihere whl as many
fetalks prow in a hill, eonsnentiy It whl prwiace
at least : per eent more to tlie n re. TnH preat In
crease per sere yearly In the Crop, wnl iaer-fv
the real wealth of our nation to the tinouht of itii
lions annually. '- .
This varietv bright yellow, generally 16 rowed,
the cob tfuu';lv covered closely at both ends with
kernels: the ears break very readily trom the stem ;
the hii.Mk is vcryUiirht and eilky, makinsr It very
ensy 00 the lianis in iiuskinjf. -Mr. Eloo.1 says t,iat
he can husk at lea-t 25 per cent, more bushels per
day than of the old varieties. Mr. Blood last fall
husked shelled and sold some o.) bashels ot this
variety alonif with his old crop of Corn. The (nun
merchants were unable todiMtinmiisii the new trom
the old. His old varieties, owins to the uniavorabie
Fall, was not fit toshell or sell at ail. .
This varietvoan be planted with safety from the
1st to the luth" of June. In one hundred days trom
nlnntintf it will be completely out of the way of the
VfLnkPP ffintr-oriL. The stock is rather short, hut
verv thick round, with generally a very lartre ear.
Mr.'Blood sa-s he dare not tell theplam truth about
this new varmtv of Corn for fear that bis statement
will be set down as a "fish story " or as a biimbusr.
I have bought Mr. Blood's entire lot of b&hJJ of
this new and valuable variety of Com, and m pre
pared to otter it to the CVRX GSO WERti of AMER
