Orchard Culture.

Tic orchard should be just rs much a subject

culiiyaiing an orchard we do not mean the grow

To select favorably site, To thoroughly pre-

proved manner, together with pruning, training

Ia our estimation the raising Of field crops 10
the orchard Is an absurd and injurious fallacy -
" nan likes 10 do double physical duty and
io attempt 10 make gi' n acre yield u crop OF
apples and crop OF corn or wheat in the same
ear, whilst not directly in opposition 10 the law

plr1i life are concerned. Il will invariably be .
iaiinrc, resulin in one or both Ct the crops
falling short in quantity and quality. Why do
we assiduously try to keep our strawberry beds
free from weeds Because We are afraid the
weeds will rob the Strawberries OF the elements
necessary 10 fruit perfection. Why then crop
our orchards and:.lo for q full yield OF ripe,
delicious apples II is folly TO expect Il. We

The trees are barked by the plow or team ;
they are more liable 10 be blown over or 90 lean
" OBVIOUSLY In order TO get under the trees
with the horses, they are trimmed 4" up higher"
and when the trunks OF apple trees are high and
exposed to the scorching rays Of the sun, the sap
hecomts heated and the fruit sickly. Apple trees
should not be trained high-ihe storms have less

And whisper love by stealth;
But matrons smile. and ali bcguilc,
When Beauty tlirts With wealth.

Where science san empty sound.
And aught but gold rings hollow:

With him whose frame, how mean soc 'cr

And young affections iiy,
