ORCHARDS.

Having been employed several days
in pruning my orchard, my mind has
been led to the subject of fruit-trees, the
time of setting out, the distance ofset,ing
them apart, and the season for pruning,
if at all, (the propriety Of which is doubt
cd by some.
About twenty-four or twenty five years
ago Iset out, an orchard, and chose
northern exposure, though contrary to
the opinions Of writer's OH the subject
my reasons were these-I had observed
that orchards laying to the south were
more frequently injured by the. late fros.s
in the spring, than those in different
situation vegetation was much earlier,
and often affected by those frosts. My

"The woods and prairies produce ma
ny fruits some ofthcm excellent, others
but Indifferent: l will briefly describe
them. The grape-vines run over the
tallest trees in very extraordinary man
ner, sometimes reaching from the ground
to the boughs of trees forty or fifty feet
high, without touching the bodies of the
trees. suppose they must have first
fixed to the boughs when the trees were
very young, and continued growing with
them; otherwise cannot think how they
could reach so great height without
support. These vines are Of SO strong
nature, that l have frequently seen them
fixed on high sweep to draw water from
wells, some of them thirty feet tleep, and
they seem TO answer as we'll as rope.
This method of drawing water is com
mon with the Americans near US, and is
the same that is practised by the market
