few gardeners would be guilty Of so
foolish Il thing as TO waste barnyard
manure. But they are almost all
guilty ola waste not a whit less excu>
sable. We mean the waste of dead
leaves in the fall Of the year. lfev-
cry horticulturist would reflect Tor a
moment on the nature Of these fallen
leaves which contain not only the
vegetable matter, but the earthly,
lime, potash, &c, needed for the
next seasons growth--and that, too,
exactly in the proportion required by
the very tree or plant from which
they fall many more, if they CON
slider that it is precisely in this way,
by The composition Of those very
falling leaves, that nat ure enrlches
the soil, year after year in her great
forests, it would scarcely be possible
for rejecting horticulturist to allow
these leaves 10 be swept away
by every wind That bic Us, and final-
~ be lost altogether.
A wise horticultural will diligent-
" collect from week to week, the
leaves that fall under each tree, and
by digging them under the soil about
the roots, where they will decay and
enrich the soil, provide in the cheap
est manner, the best possible food
for that tree. In certain vineyards
in Frapce the vines are kept 10 the
highest condition by simply burying
at their roots every leaf and branch
that is pfuned Of such vines, or that
falls from them at the end Of tie

leaves that fall from young fruit trees
should be carefully saved, and. dug
in beneath the surface OF the soul
