From the North Western Farmer.
Small V Large Trees for Trans
planting.

The question, as to the best age Of
nursery trees for transplanting ID receiv.
ing considerable attention from expert
enced fruit growers. At recent meet
ing Of the Cincinnati Horticultural
Society, several Members gave their
views upon the subject, and which W
find reported in the Cincinnatus.
Mr.. Buchanan deemed that, for ap-
pie trees, two years old were better than
those. more advanced in age. and thought
that an apple tree transplanted At that
age, al things being equal, would pro-
duce fruit ~ soon as one ransplantsd
at four years old, and would also, pro.
duce more healthy tree.
DR.. Taylor remaked that Mr.. Lough.
~, the distinguished peach-growsr, uni
formly selected trees only one year old,
and this for apples, peaches, pears; alsD,
that he had himss.f transplantsd trsss
Of al ages, from ono to 6vs years old,
and that in view Of al his experience
he would now prefer them It one rear
old.
Mr.. Mottier stated that he had plant.
ed trees, for thirty years past; thoughs
that two years old VAS better than one,
though he would not take trees beyond
three. He suggested that At one year
old the root Of the tree is not we'll devet-
oped. He had last year planted four
hundred pear trees, ons-half Of which
he had selected At one year old and the
other half at two, and thinks that those
Of one year old have for the present year
made the best growth.
Mr.. Mears remarked that in the past
ten years, he had trausplanted shout
thirty thousand trees; and that q 70
peaches, pears, pluns, etc., his prefer.
ence would be At ono year old, and ap-
pies as two years old. He said that
much depended on subsequent cultiva-
tion-recommended that the earth b
dry and mellowed deeply below the roots,
but that the roots should not b deeply
covered above. He condemned tho plsn.
too often resortsd to, Of placing stake
BY the tree in such careless and ins6-
cient manner that It usually became the
duty Of the young trsc to hold tho stake
up!
