AMERICAN ROSES.
An Englishman on American Methods.
Why Mot Grow Rosea From Seed?
Sometimes we may profit by even a
sharp criticism, and an English critic
expresses surprise that with an apparent
love of roses, which pervades the Amer
ican people and which leads them to buy
them by the hundreds of thousands and
very often at a high price, very few at
tempts have been made by American
florists to improve the rose. They have
not the patience in carefully crossing
which a number of the old world rose
growers exhibit—no attempt of any ac
count is made to raise seedlings—and
the critic calls close attention to the fact
that all the so called American roses
that are popular were merely chance
sports He refers to the varieties
known as Marshall P. Wilder, the Bride,
Snnset, the Puritan, the Waban and the
Queen.
A little fun is made of Americans
about the American Beauty, which is not
an American rose, but then, as Thomas
Meehan tells in his last Monthly, Amer
icans have never claimed this. It was
called American Beauty simply because
the original name was lost, and no one
knew what its real name was. It was
ultimately found to be a European va
riety known as Mme. Ferdinand Ja
main. This is conceded by American
rosegrowers themselves, and they are
pftrfectly willing that the credit should
go to where the credit is due. Still the
point is a good one, and American rose
growers might possibly turn their atten
tion to the growing of roses from seed,
according to the authority quoted, who
says:
The standard of excellence in America
is very different from that which pre
vails in the old world. The American
rosegrower does not simply want a
large showy flower with some peculiar
tint or shade of-color—he wants a flower
with along stem that can be cut to ad
vantage without having to fasten an ar
tificial stalk to it—and he wants a vari
ety that will bloom freely and in contin
ual succession as well. These points
have never been a want in the old
world, and American nieeds should bring
American results.
Growth of Trees.
A correspondent of The American Cul
tivator wanted to know if a mark or
wound made on the stem of a tree would
remain at the same distance from the
ground during succeeding years or would
become elevated as the tree increases
in height. Here is the reply made: The
wound remains just in the position where
first made, for the simple reason that
tree stems do not stretch growing, but
elongate by addition to terminal branches
and layers of new "wood deposited around
and over the preceding seasons' layers
all the way from the tips of the highest
branches to the very ends of the roots iri
the ground.
If you will bear in mind that the inner
or heart wood of a tree is dead material,
decay being prevented because it is her
metically sealed within layers of live sap
wood, you can readily understand why a
spike driven into the stem can neither
rise nor fall, but may in time become
covered with the annual layers of new
wood. If you measure the height from
the top of some large root, then your
mark will appear to get lower, simply
because the new layers of wood formed
over the root increase its diameter.
Grafting Grapes.
the
In the notice recently given of
death of a leading
Philadelphia
amateur horticul
turist, Robert
Cornelius, it was
stated that he
was the inventor
of a new process
for grafting the
grape. The meth
od was to take
half matured
wood to operate
on. The scion
was wedged at
both ends and in
serted like a bow
in the stock. A
piece of tape then
tied around drew
the scion tightly
into the stock.
Success in almost
every case was
absolutely per
fect. Attention
was recently
drawn to this
method by a pa
per in Orchard
and Garden. This
new method has also been illustrated in
Meehan's Monthly in a manner that plain
ly indicates the nature of the process.
NEW PROCESS OF
GRAFTING.
Yellows of the Peach.
The experiments of Dr. J. F. Smith of
the department at Washington, as pub
lished in some of the journals, do not
fnraish any encouragement for success.
He had applied to hundreds of trees pot
ash, phosphoric acid, lime, nitrogen in
various forms, muriate of potash, bone
black, bone ash, nitrate of soda, sulphate
of ammonia, ashes, tobacco dust and
barn manure. Some of the orchards
were entirely healthy, and others had
the yellows. On none of these had they
any effect in preventing or curing the
yellows. Of 645 affected with it, none
recovered. A few slightly improved.
The symptoms of the disease, as prema
ture ripening of the fruit, branched
shoots and premature unfolding of win
ter buds, did not disappear from any of
them. It appears from this report that
we must look for relief to some other
remedy than applying compounds to the
trees. So far the only efficient cure is
the removal of the affected trees by the
roots.
Not Bit Oncbrou.
JBAvCUas Hivr
Landlord (of the Traveler's Rest)—See
that feller over there? Doorin the past
year he has plugged no less than six men
right on the street.
Tender Foote—I should think the com
munity would not allow so dangerous a
man to run at large.
Landlord—Lord bless your soul, man!
There ain't a bit of danger in him to the
community. He never hits nobody but
the man he shoots at.—Puck.
TERRIBLEJEXPLOSION!
Too High Pressure.
In these days of keen competition in every
line, when the business man is compelled to
bend his intellect and every energy to the
success of his business the clerk, book
keeper, professional man and laborer, to
drive themselves at a terrific rate, there can
be but one result—an explosion, which, if
iiot resulting in immediate death, leaves
them with shattered brains and bodies.
They are running at too high pressure.
The strain is too great. ^Something must
and does give way. This is equally true of
women. Though their sphere is more
limited, they have their daily burdens, frets,
and worries, and the results^ are the same af
with their stronger companions.
This condition is growing worse every
day. The rapidity of its increase is awful
to contemplate. Our homes, hospitals, and
insane asylums are full of these unfortunates,
and are being crowded still further. There
is but one solution of the matter. Recog
nize the importance of the situation at once,
and take tne necessary measures to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hoi
flashes, dizziness, nervous or sick headache,
biliousness, irritability, melancholy, sleep
-s-ness fainting, nervous dyspepsia, epi
v.sy, etc., know that anyone of them is but
a symptom of the calamity that may befal]
vuu.
and even though you have used so
called remedies and treated with reputable
phvsicians with little or no benefit, give Dr.
Miles' Restorative Nervine a trial. It
the only remedy that nr.iy be depended
upon for nervous disorders.
"Two years ago I used Dr. Miles' Eepiorstiv*
Nervine with marked benefit, and Infer induced
mv son, who had been sick with catarrh of the
bladder five year# In the hands of our best phy
sicians. to try it together with Dr. Miles' Nerve
and Liver Pills. He was so wonderfully benefited
that he is attending to business again. My wife
also used Nervine with most excel'ent results.
All of us together have not used more than six
bottles of Nervine. Several of our friends hnv
al« used it, and are greatly improved."—Loi.i
