FILBERT CULTURE. The following are the most 

 esteemed kinds : White Filbert ; well known. Red ; 

 similar, but having a red skin. Cob Nut, Kentish Cob, 

 ReigaU Cob, Cosford Cob, Daviana Prize Exhibition Cob. 



Propagation. Layers, cuttings, grafting, and seed. 

 Shoots of the previous year's growth root readily if 

 layered any time during the rest-season. Cuttings 

 should be made similar to those of the currant, the lower 

 buds cut out in order to destroy their propensity to 

 suckering. If they are to form neat little bushes, on a 

 dwarfing system for small gardens, the cuttings may be 

 nearly half a yard in length. Grafting is performed as 

 with the apple or pear, and at the period when the buds 

 first begin to swell. The common hazel-nut and the 

 Spanish nut are generally used for stocks ; the latter, 

 it is affirmed, will not produce suckers. 



Seed. This practice is resorted to for the sake of 

 raising new varieties, or for producing the ordinary 

 hazels. In the former case, there is much room for pro- 

 gress still ; and certainly no plant offers greater facilities 

 to the hybridiser. Bearing, as it does, male and female 

 blossoms separately, every opportunity exists for de- 

 priving any given kind of its catkins betimes. Seedlings
