The Best Soil for Fruit Trees.

After almost half century of experience In
raising fruit We are decidedly Of opinion, as .
general rule. that the best soil on which to
raise fruit, is that just cleared of forest. The
surface should be rolling or descending, and
moderately dry and rich. Such ground needs
little or no preparation, the roots of the forest
trees as they decay, keep it loose and mellow,
and afford the exact food necessary for . rapid
and healthy growth of the fruit. and the foil
abounds plentifully in those elements which are
requisite to form the most perfect fruit. Ano.
tber consideration, and . very important one,
is. that fruit trees grown on recently cleared
forest land. are much less diseased than thc-D
grown on old land, and the fruit ID not ceaI -
liable to be attacked BY insects.
Any one going from IN old settled country u
a new one, will not fail to observe the ysnsrl.

We would advise those contemplating set.
ting out new orchards, If they have no wood
land to clear for this purpose, to set apart a
much as they desire for fruit, and let 1t grow "
young forest or other trees as rapidly ~ pos
sible. Even few years growth will answer Z
good purpose, provided they are cut down ana
slowed to lie on the land. and when dry, burnt
