Retaining good Forisies Of .8ppies IN Tie Country.


A correspondent in the Mechanics Magazine
makes a very easy matter OF what Mr. knight and
other phvsoogi,t, consider very difficult or lmpo,si-
be 1t is no wonder he says, that the finest apple,
have degenerated because every successive graft
ing is a new perioraon OF the fruit engraited." 10
! retain rood Apples in the country. "wlth0ut the
psus of grating" he gives the following directions !;
4 on which we would observe that as he menons


only good traits and not "any particular var'e


ty Of fruit he may probably be correct or, at any


rate, under that form Of words he evades the ques-
ton Of perpetuating the peculiar quantities OF ava


rety: say. for IN stance, of the golden pppln.


= In every perfectly ripe apple there VIII be
Z found one. and sometimes two. round seeds the
others will have one or more 1atted sides. IN,
! round ones will produce the improved fruit Iron


which they are taken and those with tia ted side
:. will produce the fruit Of the crab upon winch tn
: craft was inserted. 1t requires not "a long time t
:. ascertain the difference. for If circle is drawn 7
" rich ground. and the fla's d sided seeds plante


therein and he round seed, in the centre. the yaris


ton Of the quality will be discovered in two or hre


years the first viii throw out the leave, OF the crab
!, and the latter the leaves OF an improved tree dt
: tingu.hed in shape, fibre, and langunouS aPpea
. ancc and in due time the fruit Of each will pt
,p every thing hey yond doubt.


: y ut is to be observed, moreover. that the see,

- We should be happy 10 hear the result OF fe
~ trials. Take a bni from tae Sc lirng the iir

Thus three or at most four years will suffice to pro-
