CARE OF FRUIT TREES. There are so many
fr;!it .rccs planted in unconnrnal soils that
the caltvator would do well to study their
natures and their specific food. The roots OF
tees will appropriate tc themselves and elab-
oratc food from many coarse substances that
are buried beneath the surface Of the ground.
when those substances left upon the surface
would afford no more nourishment than so
many rocks. For instance, we have seen the
roots OF trees Send their reedu,S into apparent
~ solid homes, thus seeking for phosphate of
lime. Now, were these bones pulycrizcd,
now much easier he tree could be fed. They
may be pulverzed by grinding. or put into
liquid state, by the use Of oil Of vtriol, or
a strong solution Of potash. When it is re-
MenUercd that food taken up by trees must
be IN liquid state, ii is matter Of surprise
that cutNalors 10 not study to apply that
specific liquid food which the most readily
develops the fruit or foliage of the tree
Everything that the tree feeds upon must be
in perfect state of decomposition. Hence,
quart OF putil, liquid manure will do more
TO develop the fruit not formed than wagon
load Of fresh stable manure. Those who
pretend to cultivate trees should have a vat
under ground, where all the bones. old shoes,
hair, Ne, can be made into liquid that
can he lorked in around the roots Of trecs-
~ this process the Chinese make immense
fruit crops from small plats Of ground. Feed
the tree IN Its growing, fruiting state as rcgu-
lar as you would an OK in the stall, and with

tUrFlSa AND CURtNG CLOVER IIAY.-Ed-
HorS GtncScs FUm1r According TO the
thirty years Of ciosr observation made by the
writer of this article, here is but one method
Of curing clover Eay which pays well for the
labor, and that ! shall desc'iue shortly.
Observation has taught me hot 'tr best time
fur cutting clover is whcr tn'o-thirds Of the
blooms begin TO turn brown. At this stage
il makes the best hay, and is not sappv
enough TO reduce much in the c,lrlng pro-
ctSs.
When The clover is in the above stage, cut
il as rapid y rs possible; but never cut when
there is dew or rain water on the clover
Let the green clover he pnt in small shocks
rs fast as cut down. so that the SIM might
not wilt it. When enough is cut and shocked
for large stack, haul up and stack as fast
as possible. The stack should be some II or
i feet at the base and l6 or Is feet high, SO
put up as to MAKE it the shape OF a CONE
With hay roik. let orc hand throw mp the
green clover, while two hands stack and
trample it, so as to make it as near air lghs
rs possible. Every foot in height should
have about one quart Of salt sprink,ed regu-
larly over it. This viii require about -
pounds to the stack. In finishing, top it off
and rake 1t down SO as to turn rain. In ten
or Twelve days IL VIII becone wet ana not,
and smoke like coal kiln, so as to have all
appearances Of rottng; hnt in ten or fifteen
days more. it will cool off and be found dry.
bright, sweet hay.
IF the clover were allowed to wilt before
stacking, the hay would uc dark and mouldy:
hut ilput M green, the hay will be bright
green, and sweet and free from mould. -
This process preserves all the leaves of the
clover, So certain TO be lost by any other pro-
cess; and it also preserves all the volatile
constituents of clover, which are sure to be
lost when it is cured in the sunshine OF open
air
The whole management may he summed
up in few words. Cut and stack free from
moisture, in the perfectly free state salt it
well, anG make the stack as near air tight as
hard tramping can make it. f. H. &.
