The best Location for Peach IRE

The best Location for Peach Trees.
Although the season for transplanting fruit trees
has passed, the present condition of the peach in
this vicinity fully confirms the views of observ-
ing and practical hortculturSts as to the best To-
cation for them, that it may be well to put them
on record for the guidance OF future operations.
have three in peach trees about one half of
which are situated on low, plain land. and the
other half on high hill in the immediate vicinity
My trees on the low land have been iniuriously
affected and many of them entirely destroyed by
the severity OF the past winter, while those on the
hill, occupying bleak and exposed position. never
looked more finely; and are now in full blossom
The popular impression is, that plain lands, with
somewhat sandy soil, are the best adopted to
peach trees, and that they cannot live at all on the
bleak and ragged eminences, which form so large
portion of every New England farmers domain.
But this is one of the numerous cases where the
popular belief in horticultural matters is at vari-
ance with the well established results of close and
scientific observation. The peach loves an eeva-
ted locality. and one nearly as rough and rocky as
the vine iuxurlates upon on the banks of the Rhine
1t requires soil of considerable strength and if it
has clayey subsoil, SO much the better. Ny own
observation and experience also go to overthrow
the vulgar belief, that highly mlamed grounds are
the most favorable to the peach. A part of my
peach orchard occupies ground. which has for half
a century been used garden, and which has
been literally manured, The consequence is,
that there is an excessive growth of wood and
consequently diminished product of fruit Such
liberal application of manure is sort Of forcing
hotbed process, which gives the tree uxuriant
growth, but dminishes its capacity for fruit bear
ing The peach tree requires cuitiuated soi and
indeed it is preposterolis to think as many do that
it will flourish in sward land, even if the soil be
ever so good. The soil about peach trees needs to
be thoroughly stirred by the plow and the hoe at
least as often every other year, or they will do
little or nothing Plant your peach trees then on
your hills and among the rocks where there is a
good depth of soil, and let the soil be frequently
stirred, and enjoy only slight quantity of manure
and you will find that they will successfully resist
the severity of our winters, load your table with
most luscious fruit, and enable you to send to
market an article which is always in demand
and which viii amply repay your tolls for its pro-
duction.
