C.  Ha\igMon,  Minn. — The  plant  you  send  for 
name  is  Atietnone  xyiiUaliana. 
Kibnximock  WiU(y>o  and  Mnhcdi'h  Sefd.—G&n 
you  tell  me  the  secrot  of  budding  the  Kilmar¬ 
nock  Weeping  WUlow  and  siiroutlng  import^ 
Mahalcb  Cherry  seeds  ?  I  havo  been  connected 
with  the  largcet  nursery  in  the  West,  and  during 
the  last  18  years  I  have  known  hundreds  of  dol¬ 
lars  and  much  time  to  bo  sneni  on  the  above,  all 
of  which  has  resullCil  in  toUl  failure.  The  only 
stand  I  over  saw  was  about  40  quarts  of  native 
Maholeb  seed  that  I  planted  tl»r«o  v«)ar«  ago — 
planted  as  aoon  as  gathered.— A.  I).  'F.,  Mcuari 
Co.,  III. 
I .  It  is  very  likely  that  the  oauso  of  your  failure 
to  succeed  in  budding  the  Kilmarnock  W'’illow 
was  in  not  obtaining  Uie  right  kind  of  stock. 
The  stock  used  for  this  purjwao  by  our  nursery¬ 
men  is  the  Goat  Willow  (.SVihr  ooprea),  and  we 
think  if  you  get  this  species  and  then  bud 
while  the  sap  is  flowing  freely  there  xvUl  not  ha 
much  difficulty  in  making  them  take.  Tharo  is 
no  more  difficulty  in  making  Mahaleb  Cherry 
Seed  grow  than  the  native  spooies  or  the  Maz- 
zards  and  Morollos,  provided  they  are  fresh  and 
BOimd  when  obtained.  But  the  imported  seed  is 
frequently  one  or  two  year*  old  when  sent  ont, 
or  it  is  kept  vei'y  dry,  instead  of  being  mixed 
with  some  material  to  keep  it  moist.  There  is 
no  reason  why  the  imported  seed  should  not  be 
as  good  and  germinate  as  freely  as  that  raised  in 
this  country,  still  wo  know  from  experience  that 
much  of  it  is  worthless  when  rootiivod,  through 
carelessness  in  preserving. 
Haines. — ^Yonr  statements  are  altogether  too 
general  and  too  sweeping  to  be  eiUier  crediteil  or 
received  as  exa,H  truth.  For  instance,  yon  say 
that  the  Colorado  bugs  (we  suppose  you  mean 
beetles)  “  are  hero  in  great  nniuWs,  destroying 
all  the  trees."  Now,  you  cannot  mean  that  the 
genuine  Colorado  potato  bootlos  (Doryphora  10- 
linea(a)  are  eating  up  tlie  leaves  or  in  any  way 
injuring  forest  or  orchard  trees.  Have  you  not 
made  a  loistoko ?  Then  again,  yrm  say,  “Noth¬ 
ing  would  destroy  them  (the  booties)  but  the 
sparrow,"  and  that  this  bird  ‘‘is  such  a  great 
feeder  it  destroys  all  worms,  bugs  and  millers.” 
Now,  this  is  rather  strong  language,  crediting 
the  sparrow  with  good  deeds  whlcli  wo  do  not 
think  ho  ever  performed.  When  you  And  any 
species  of  the  sparrow,  native  or  foreign,  eating 
and  destroying  potato  beetles  and  “all  kinds  of 
worms,”  wo  hope  you  will  cadi  in  a  nnrahor  of 
witnesses  and  have  tho  thing  settled  beyond  dis¬ 
pute.  SpaiTows  do  oat  some  kinds  of  insects, 
but  not  all,  nor  one-tenth  of  all,  of  onr  oommoo- 
est  species. 
NaiuralisL—TliQ  minute  worm  found  in  pork 
and  known  as  'J'ric/iina  spiralis  was  discovered 
and  named  by  Prof.  K.  Owzx,  the  oelobratod 
naturalist  of  the  British  Museum,  some  forty 
odd  years  ago,  and  therefore  it  is  not,  as  you 
suppose,  a  discovery  of  recent  date.  Tho  name 
of  tho  genus,  lYiohina,  is  from  the  Greek,  and 
means  thrice  hairy,  or  made  of  hair,  and  the 
speoiflo  name,  Spiralis,  was  fastened  upon  this 
worm  by  Prof.  Owen,  probably,  because  tho  first 
specimen  he  examined  was  rolled  up  in  a  spiral 
form. 
Cedar  Apples. — Will  yon  allow  a  snbscriber’s 
wife  to  ask  a  question  in  regard  to  the  excres¬ 
cences  or  balls  that  appear  on  cedar  trees? 
You  perhaps  know  to  what  I  allude— a  hard, 
knotty,  groen-looking  protuberenco  that,  In  wet 
weather,  shoots  oot  a  red,  jelly-Ulw  subeUnce. 
I  have  been  told  tliey  will  destroy  the  cedars,  1 
have  a  hedge  of  largo  trees  covered  with  those 
balls.  Uo  you  think  they  will  kill  tho  trees  ? 
What  produces  them  and  what  are  they  called  ? 
Please  answer  and  you  will  much  oblige — 8.  A. 
B.,  Sumier  Co.,  Ala. 
A  number  of  years  ago.  Dr.  FrrcH,  in  his  en¬ 
tomological  reports  to  the  N.  Y.  State  Agrlonl- 
tural  Society,  stated  that  those  cedar  apples  were 
galls  produced  by  some  species  of  gaU  Hies,  But 
the  late  Bbsjami.v  Wamu,  in  tho  second  volnmo 
of  tho  ‘‘Practical  Putomologist,”  informs  ns  j 
that  they  are  not  cansed  by  insects,  but  are  in 
reality  “  Epiphytous  Funguses, ”  or  a  kind  of 
mushroom,  like  many  of  the  lichens  and  mosses 
found  on  the  stems  and  branches  of  trees.  These 
cedar  apples  commence  their  growth  early  in  the 
season  and  come  to  mattuity  soon  after  tho 
weather  gets  warm  in  spring.  At  this  time,  says 
Mr.  Walsu,  and  for  more  than  a  month  after¬ 
ward  they  are  white  and  fleshy  inside,  whereas 
the  old  last  year’s  spocimenu  which  still  hang  on 
the  trees  are  rusfc-red  insido  and  of  a  hard,  dry, 
spongy  texture.  After  a  few  wann,  moist  days 
in  the  early  part  of  suramcr,  the  new  cedar  ap¬ 
ples  put  forth  from  their  surface  many  filameuts, 
about  one-fourth  of  an  inch  long,  bearing  upon 
their  surface  a  quantity  of  rust -red  powder 
which  consists  of  “spores,”  or  seeds  of  tho 
fungus.  These  fungoid  excrescences  are  some¬ 
times  BO  very  abundant  that  they  check  the 
growth  of  the  trees.  But  to  get  rid  of  this  pest 
it  is  only  necessary  to  cut  off  all  that  arc  found 
from  year  to  year,  before  they  mature,  and  scat¬ 
ter  the  “  spores,”  which  answer  tho  place  of 
seeds  in  the  higher  order,  or  what  are  termed  ’ 
flowering  plants. 
Coleus — Shah  and  Lady  Uiirrill. — soo  by  the 
Bdbai.  of  July  1  that  a  coiTesiiondent  wishes  to 
know  the  reason  of  his  “Shah”  Coleus  not 
growing  variegatoii,  iis  ho  expected.  Last  year 
I  procured  the  “Shah”  of  two  different  florists, 
and  they  were  both  very  inferior  and  not  worth 
growing.  I  then  proctued  the  “Lady  Biurill,” 
and  tho  plants  wore  properly  marked  even  when 
amaU.  Hence  I  believe  there  is  a  difference  be¬ 
tween  the  “Shtih”  and  tho  “Lady  BurriU,” 
and  that  your  con-ospondeut  received  the  former 
from  some  florist,  who,  not  having  the  true  va¬ 
riety,  sent  out  what  ho  had.  FfsjRisT. 
T.  T.  objects  to  tlio  ap])oarance  of  wlilt^ 
washed  trees  and  asks  how  it  can  be  colored? 
Use  lamp-black  or  soot.  With  these  a  dull  color 
may  be  made  so  nearly  that  of  bark  that  tho 
stems  do  not  show  they  have  been  whilowashod. 
T,  li,  J.,  RockeiUe,  N.  V. — “I  am  building  a 
now  house  and  laying  out  my  grounds.  I  prefer 
to  plant  my  evergreens,  raspberries,  blackberries, 
cun-ants  and  frmt  trees  this  fall.  I  have  hail  no 
experience  in  planting,  and  have  asked  many 
friends  whether  fall  or  »imng  is  best.  Some  say 
one,  some  the  other.  Will  yon  advise  mo  ?  Also, 
if  not  asking  too  much,  please  give  names  of  the 
best  plants  named  above.” 
Ans.  There  is  no  question  that  has  been  harped 
upon  more  tliau  that  of  whether  to  plant  in 
spring  or  fall — and  needlessly,  as  we  think,  since 
it  is  one  wliioh  climate  determines.  In  the 
Sonth,  fall— hi  tho  North,  spring  is  the  best 
time.  In  the  hititildo  of  New  York,  as  you  say, 
some  prefer  one,  some  tiie  other,  and  this, 
whether  advisable  or  not,  depends  upon  exjio- 
sure,  since  Now  York  may  bo  considered  the  ex¬ 
treme  northern  limit  for  fall  planting.  We  should 
never  choose  fall  for  transplanting  evergreens. 
Kaspborries  and  blackberries,  if  transplantwl  in 
the  fall,  should  be  well  covered  with  littei-.

E.  RiUtT  says “  A  good  deal  has  been  said 
in  tho  Bubal,  against  s|irinkling  plants  during 
dry  periods.  Tho  drought  with  us  is  terrible— 
Do  you  say  I  must  not  water  bedding  plants  ? 
Wherein  does  sprinkling  from  a  watering  pot 
differ  from  a  aliowor  ? 
Ans. — It  differs  in  being  confined  to  a  small 
space- in  forming  puddles  tho  weight  of  which 
presses  upon  tha  soil  washing  the  fijier  jiarticleB 
between  the  coarser  ones  and  creating  a  close 
muddy  bottom  that  at  onoe  stiffens  under  the 
sun’s  rays.  When  once  this  fine  powdery  sur¬ 
face  has  been  formed,  subsequent  waterings 
penetrate  less  readily-  -tho  air  is  exolndod  from 
tho  roots — tho  oartli  is  made  a  better  conductor 
or  heat  and  becomes  hot  enough  to  scald  the 
fibrous  roots  and  Die  plant  suffers  accordingly. 
When  tho  earth  Is  dried  out  as  yours  is,  it  re¬ 
quires  a  surprLung  <piantity  of  water  to  reach 
tho  roots.  And  even  then  the  parehod  earth 
surrounding  the  plant  th.at  is  watered  very  soon 
absorbs  it,  so  that  tho  watering  amounts  to  only 
a  temporary  stimulant,  which,  when  thus  rapidly 
withdrawn,  loaves  the  plant  less  vigorons  than 
before.  It  is  often  rocommendod  to  remove  tho 
surface  earth,  flU  the  hollow  with  water,  and 
then  replace  the  oaith  loosely.  Even  this  plan 
is  with  many  plants  Injnrious.  Wo  havo  thus 
killed  young  Magnolias  in  a  day  or  so,  though 
other  newly  transplanted  subjects  have  boon 
benefited.  We  ask  Mr.  Bitter  to  try  for  himself 
the  ex[>eriment.  Take  two  Balsams  or  Pelargo- 
mums— water  one,  leave  tho  other  to  tho  drouth, 
and  mark  the  results. 
Neophyte. — Will  you  kindly  inform  mo  through 
your  “  Answers  to  CorvosiKmdcnts,"  what  is  the 
matter  with  my  Madeira  Vinos  ?  The  leaves  are 
constantly  filling  with  holes  without,  so  far  as  T 
can  see,  apparent  cause. 
Madeira  Vinos  will  stand  a  deal  of  dryness  but 
are  impatient  of  much  moisture.  If  your  vbie 
is  in  a  jxit,  examine  the  drainage  and  see  that  it 
is  ample  and  then  lot  it  dry  ont  for  a  day  or  so. 
Keep  the  earth  afterwards  barely  moist.  Wo 
have  seen  Madeira  Vines  thriring  in  rockeries 
while  many  other  plants  ivei-e  drooping  for  want 
of  rain. 
C.,  N.  J.— “  Will  you  please  tell  tlu-ough  the 
B.  N.  Y.  what  is  the  matter  with  these  grapes?” 
A.ss.— In  seasons  of  drouth  this  often  ocours, 
viz.:  the  protrusion  of  tho  seed  beyond  the  wkin 
It  w'oold  seem  that  tho  seeds  develop  at  the  ex¬ 
pense  of  the  pulp  and  finally  biu-st  through  the 
skin,  which  caimot  projKirtionately  expand  for 
want  of  sap. 
G.  B.— You  can  rid  your  ground-s  of  Purslane 
by  pulling  it  up  by  the  roots.  A  single  leaf  or 
particle  of  stem  will  take  root,  so  that,  whenever 
broken  or  cut  in  two,  two  plants  will  take  the 
place  of  one.
