TRUIT °ARIAL
Moist as the weather is, and abundant as are snails I
and insects generally, the birds seem to choose in
preferenee the produee of strawberry beds and cherry
trite. Hence these matters will now be forced under
every gardener's notice, and the necessary kind of
netting materials must be held in use. The planting
of 6trawber7 be-Is must be brought to a close with all
dispatch, so that the old ford plants be eet into the
ground as quickly as possible, not only to lessen the
labour of watering, but that they may make sune pro-
gre,s, in the matter of estab,ishing themselves for the
next summer's fruiting. Proceed with the summer
thinoieg of shoots epee pyramidal fruit trees, such as
Pearl. Apples, Plums, Ste. Thin out ell lesser ill-placed
shoot,, cud 14 these remain which are wellmlaced,
and may be used to estend the size of the trees, to be
