IRRTGATIoN-ITs EFFECT UroS ORCHARDS
We know of no fruit tree when planted
upon such land as is usually devoted to
orchards in this country, that would not be
materially benefited both in its growth OF
wood and fruit by copious watering every
week during the drought OF our hot summers
This is the main cause of the stunted, scrub
by appearance of many apple trees, and the
reason why they are such shy bearers. It ID
but reasonable to suppose that fruit which
is SO largely composed of water as the apple,
must require more water thon can be obtain
ed from a dry and rocky hillside, during weeks
of such dry weather, that the grass which
covers the roots of the trees in parched up,
so that it would readily burn.
