TO get this, plow a narrow land,z aking
the dead iurrow where your hedge row
will be, then turn and back furrow. throw
ing the ridge in the dead furrow; this
makessa good mellow bed,
SETTING PLANrs.-Sei out plants when a
year old. Set about six inches apart, or
eight will do; six is best
TRIMM1NG. When the plants are about
four years old, or about four or FIVE feet
high, drive small stake. three feet bis IN and
three apart, all along the row. Commence
then at a gateway and cbt each plant of
two thirds oil "a foot from the ground; cut
off the stub parts close TO the ground; then
bend the standing part down between the
stakes, putting ore plant on one side OF
the stake; the ne xt on the other side, weav-
ing all in loosely like beske, work.
The lower par, being split its own weight
lwilf keep il down. Thus go on all around
the Eeld. bending all one way, and one on
! the top OF another.

pruning is necessary, get through with
Dead or decayiDg branches should inva-
riably be cut low enough 10 secure live
brancbes. aud il the limb be large one,
it is better to trim it off after the saw with
a sharp knife or hatctet The saw is but
poor pruning instrument at best. without
trimming after it, especially on the outside
oil the wound d, az it will scarcely ever heal
over; whereas. il the branches are cut with
a sharp instrument. ard the tree is healthy.
the surrounding bark will soon cover the
wound, and thus aver. decay. The Oh
ject in pruning varies with the different
sorts OF fruit. .
Apples and pears. where allowed full
scope, require thinning merely Of weak
and cross branches, and all spray cut
clean out in the body OF the tree. Dwarf
and espaIier trees require somewhat diff
tsrent pruning; but most Of which should

required at this season being TO shorten in
the unproductive shoots Of established
trees within two or three inches Of their
length, taking care to preserve the fruit
buds. which are readily known by their
round and plump form.
Peach trees are much benefited by prun-
ing, as, if commenced while young, the

ahost tine. an ugly sirsegling tree. with a

weak spindly growth, except where wanted
to SfIl up vacancy, and shorten in the
leading shoot of each branch. We prefer
doing this 10 shorten the branches we in,
