THEC RURAL 
Transplanting Large Grapevines. 
E. O. A., Woonsocket, R. I .—Can old 
grapevines 30 to 40 years old be moved? 
How low can the old stock be cut back? 
I have some very nice old vines I would 
like to move from the city to the country 
if they will not get homesick and die. 
Ans. —The proposition to move an old 
grapevine is a novel one, as, new ones 
grow rapidly and bear early. Of course, 
the moving is only a matter of ex¬ 
pense, gr.eat care in taking up and 
handling. But grape roots spread so 
much more widely proportionately than 
apples that it will be difficult to handle 
them properly. I have never attempted 
moving old vines. As to the cutting 
back I think that will depend largely 
on present shape. I doubt if a large 
trunk would break out in proper shape, 
but smaller branches would do so. A 
heavy cutting back would more prob¬ 
ably result in a lot of new shoots at the 
base or root. While I think the vines 
would live, I doubt if the moving would 
have any better results at the end of 
five years than with some new strong 
two-year vines properly trained.

NEW-YORKER 
Care of Your Apple Trees. 
II. M. S., Dover, N. II .—Having come in 
possession of a large farm five years ago, 
being an ideal spot for a large orchard, hav¬ 
ing 400 old trees starved and neglected, I 
have set 12 acres to young trees in three 
orchards with south, north and west cants, 
soil gravelly loam, in parts some ledgy, set 
in sod 40 feet part. At setting a good 
coat of barn manure was spread on top of 
ground and covered with hay. There has 
been no fertilizer applied since. Trees 
sot 1908 have made very small growth, 1909 ! 
did better, and 1910 still better. The three 1 
years have been exceedingly dry. I cannot 
cultivate these orchards, but want to use 
fertilizer that will he best to force the j 
growth and maturity of trees. While at- j 
tending the New England apple show last ] 
Fall I found many advocated for protection 
from mice and borers to paint with pure j 
white lead and best linseed oil, from below 
surface to well into limns. Can you say 
anything for or against it? What would 
you recommend for spray for small trees? 
Ans.— -Our experience is that trees 
planted in this way often make but a 
slow growth during the first year or 
so. They usually recover and do better 
when firmly established. In some cases 
such soil is very sour, and this organic 
matter, like manure, is slow to give up 
its nitrogen. Lime scattered around the 
trees would help this, but we should use 
a pound to 24 ounces of nitrate of soda 
to each young tree—scattered not less 
than a foot away from the trunk. This 
will start them going. Is it not possible 
to plow narrow strips along the rows of 
these trees? This would give a chance 
to cultivate lightly and would help, 
without plowing the entire orchard. We 
are slow to advise painting trees as pro¬ 
tection from mice and borers. While 
some report success others have killed 
the trees. We dig borers out and pro¬ 
tect by mounding with earth or covering 
with wood or paper. The spray to use 
will depend on what troubles the tree— 
whether scales, disease or leaf-eating in¬ 
sects. L.ime and sulphur comes the near¬ 
est to being a cure-all—with arsenic 
added for the leaf-eaters. 
Part of Trinidad Asphalt Lake 
The costliest roofings 
are the roofings that 
don’t last. 
The roofing that does 
last is made of Trinidad 
Lake Asphalt— 
Genasco 
the Trinidad-Lake-Asphalt Roofing 
Other roofings all have their 
drawbacks: Shingles crack, 
split, and rot; tin rusts; slate 
breaks and blows loose; coal- 
tar gets brittle and cracks; so 
do the many socalled “asphalt” 
roofings, because they lack 
the “live” lasting qualities of 
natural asphalt. 
Genasco has the natural oils of 
Trinidad Lake asphalt sealed in it; 
and they keep the roofing- always 
pliable and strong- and defensive 
ag-ainst all weathers. Genasco 
doesn’t crack, rot, rust, or break. 
It is permanently waterproof. That 
means real economy. 
It pays to cover the roof of 
every building- on the farm with 
Genasco. Fully guaranteed. 
The Kant-leak Kleet prevents nail- 
leaks, and waterproofs the roofing-seams 
without cement. Makes Genasco easier 
to apply than ever. 
Ask your dealer for Genasco mineral or 
smooth surface Roofings with Kant-leak Kleets 
packed in the roll. Write us for the Good Roof

Farmers’ Week at Cornell. 
About 2000 people, largely farmers and 
their families, attended this annual con¬ 
vention, which closed February 25. Some 
of the subjects discussed were: Drainage, 
plant breeding, poultry, dairying, vegetable 
growing, education, social life in the coun¬ 
try, etc. There were 295 lectures given 
during "the. week, thoroughly covering all 
fields of agriculture, and in addition the 
various exhibits of the agricultural col¬ 
lege work were staged for inspection. 
One of the features of this year’s meet¬ 
ing was the organization of a New York 
State “Country Bond,” the idea being to 
encourage co-operation among farmers in 
working out their business and social prob¬ 
lems. It is planned to have local societies 
which will meet frequently, and an annual 
meeting for the whole State, when the 
year’s work can be discussed and plans 
made for the future. 
Our stormy month has nearly closed ; it 
has been an old-fashioned month full of 
wind and snow flurries. Not much ice se¬ 
cured as yet from the lake, as it breaks up 
just as it gets good. Coarse fodder is being 
consumed in good shape. Corn seems to 
be damp, not shelling well; farmers thought 
it ripe when cut, but the season was none 
too long for dent corn. There is much 
feeling among farmers in regard to the 
reciprocity ti’eaty. Hopewell Grange 472 sent 
a bill of resolutions to our Senator, re¬ 
questing him to vote against the bill. We 
are paying a high price for clover seed and 
receiving a low price for wheat, potatoes 
and cabbage. Wheat, 80 cents per bushel; 
oats, 35 cents; corn, dull at 55 cents; po¬ 
tatoes, 30 cents; live pork, 7% cents per 
pound; cabbage. .$5 per ton; carrots, .$12 
per ton ; eggs, 22 cents per dozen; butter, 
25 cents per pound. Wo had a good farm¬ 
ers’ institute at Shortsville last week.
