CropS among Fruit Trees.

The size and quality OF the frui, Of an
orchard depend much on the condition of
the soil. Ii the soil becomes exhausted
through bad management or excessive
cropping,we have 10 reason 10 expect much
or good fruit from any trees. The ques-
ton is often asked, what crops may be
raised in an orchard wlihou, injury to the
trees or fruit Mr.. Cole, in his American
Fruit Book, thus remarks: - Some crops
NAV be cultivated among fruit trees with
profit. Others are injurious. Indian corn
and ali smaller grains, and crops generally
rha, ripen their seeds, iuiure trees. Po,a-
toes and other crops are favorable SO are
sluashes, and vines generally. Clover, as
pas,urase, is tavorah ahe; as no" lnl, lnJuTi.
Gus. Pasiuring richards wi'h small AMI
mails, such as hogs, calves. shee? and ponI-
try, have good effect, and they destroy
insects, as the animals devour the fallen
frui,, insects and all. Sheep are good
agains, canker-worms. The ,readng and
roofing of animals destroys or annoys in
sec,s in the soil. Sometimes hogs strip
the bark from the roots Of trees, and must
be watched.
Ii is more economical to manure liberal
", and take off crops; as The constituents
Of vegetables are gene rally different from
those Of trees but when the trees nearly
cover the land, it should be wholly devoted
10 them, and tie manurirgand culture con-
fnued, rs the extra produce, and superior
quality Of the fruit. will amply repay the
cost. The finest orchard in the country
has produced large crops Of vegetables that
nave paid nearly al The expenditures"
