        Grafting knives-- Thanks for all the direct response!  I haven't 
replied to 
everyone yet, I'm processing what has been sent my way
        Raspberry productivity-- there's a paragraph in this issue of Organic 
Gardening (march 2001) about increasing yields on boyne and regency from 68% 
to 189 % by how their trellised.  It is a note of an article in HortScience, 
April2000.pages 181-183.  I tried hortscience.com on search and came up with 
a San Francisco consulting firm, and the link for their publication I 
couldn't make work. May not be the same outfit anyway....
        Owl--Came in from a snowshoe and there perched regally over our 
orchard was 
once again, a great gray. Beautiful! We had one pretty regular till the snow 
got 2 feet deep, I wonder how they get enough to eat.
        And for a good laugh find a current issue of Smithsonian (Feb.2001) 
if you 
can.  There's an article on fruit and vegatables as faces and 
insects....from a cherrry ant to a grasshopper ochra to a yawning kiwi, you 
wont look at fruit and vegis quite the same again.
And for those that were not quite up to the past thread on eating bugs - now 
you can have your bugs and eat them to!  Mn. Del
