Keating lirnpo Vinos in Pols. A hortioulturint in Stuttgnrdt, lias dc v'lBcd an ingenious method of roaring grapo vines in pots, so as to obtain grapes with very little trouble, in a room or oth er sheltered place. For this purpose, a vigorous healthy cutting of the late growth of wood is taken, from three to five feet in length; having at the upper end two fruit buds. Tho cutting is to bo entirely enveloped with moss, and bound with bark, but so as to leave the extremi ty bearing fruit buds uncovered. Tho cutting thus prepared, is to be inserted spirally into a sufficiently large flowcr-pot, leaving the fruit buds projecting above tho edge of tho pot, which is then to bo filled with rich hot-bed earth, well moist ened, aud placed in tho sun behind a win dow, and kept uniformly moist. The water applied should never bo cold, but rather luke-warui, so as to stimulate to the utmost the development of the young roots. When tho weather is such that thero is no danger from night frosts, tho pot may be placed outside the window or against a sunny wall, or even inserted in tho ground in order to secure a more uniform moisture and temperature. When the two fruit buds havo produced branches, having bunches of grapes upon them, theso shoots are to be trimmed so that two sound leaves remain over each grape shoot, in order to keep up tho cir culation of the sap, since without this the grapes would not develop. A single leaf would bo sufficient, but two aro better, for greater security. An occasional watering with a liquid manure is advisable, in or der to stimulate. An excess will do moro harm than good. In one Instance a grapo shoot treated in this way, produced nine bunches of fino grapes, although such a number would be rather more than could could conveniently be supported by the plant. What Greeley Knows of Farming. At a late meeting of the Farmers' Club, Mr. Greeley exhibited a pumpkin of his own raising. As it embodied his solitary and crowning success, after sev eral years of discouraging failure in the pumpkin culture, the Club surrounded it with uncovered heads and mingled emo tions of surprise, admiration aud envy. It was a superb fruit, and when Mr. G's hut was placed upon it, to illustrate its size and symmetry, the hut and pumpkin seemed so perfectly adapted to each other, and together produced an effect so start ling, that several enthusiastic members swore they would have kuown who raised that pumpkin if they had seen it any where. It is to be photographed by Gurney, and the next year's Tribune subscribers will receive copies. The pumpkin was the flattering product of one bushel ot seed planted on the lurui in Chambagna. Soon after blossoming tho vine manifested an inclination to wither. It was thereuDon transplanted to a lnreo flower-pot and removed to tho town resi dence of its founder. For some time it pined and drooped, and they set up nights with it, expecting that every moment would be its last ; but with careful nurs ing it finally rallied and came up to ma turity, as cherished and tough a pumpkin as ever grew. Dr. Sixhauiers suggested that the result of Mr. G's indomitablo struggle with this pumpkin showed how every city family should provide itself with pumpkin pie. lie hoped to see tho day when every window-sill in every city would be adorned with fructifying pump kin pots, and every workman's cottage embowered in pumpkin vines. The Effect of Wrapping Trees in Winter. Charles Downing says that ho witness ed a remarkable change produced on the body of a pear tree by means of wrapping it in straw. Tho tree was young, graft ed about seven feet high, upon a stock which for years had not grown as rapidly us a graft usually does, and presented a decided bugle or swelling at tho junction ot the graft. 1 bis smaller portion was inclosed in straw about two inches thick, and at the end of two seasons it was found on removing the straw, that the heretofore smaller stem, had become the full size of tho graft above, showing but a slight wuieutiou ot the past union be tween graft. This is an itom of interest, and many tree growers who havo trees with contracted stems, evidence ot some natu ral waut of affinity with the graft, may find a hint for practical uso. We have ourselves practiced wrapping the stom of Morello cherries when worked at a height of two or three feet, with tho treo grow ing, or sweet varieties of moss, and thus kept them swelling regularly with tho growth of the graft for years, says a grower.
