Nut Growing.


1t is somewhat surprising thai
with all our nations love of grain
and the general appreciative admira-
ton of beautiful trees for shade and
ornament, we have SO few instances
where nut-bearing trees have been
adopted for planting in the place of
maple, elm, or linden. The chest
nut, butternut, black walnut, and
Madeira nut, where the climate will
admit, are all beautiful as shade Or
namental trees; can be transplanted
while young without loss of over
ten per cent; grow very rapidly,
and come into bearing usually from
the seventh to the tenth year from
seed. The hickory or white walnut
is more difficult of transplanting
but even that we have removed with
success by digging deep and OBJ
tanning, and again replanting entire,
tie tap root. This tap root retain
ING is, in fact, a feature Of import
aace with all the nut-bearing trees,
its less often resulting iu death of
the tree, while, if fully retained, a
tree rarely dies. 1t is, however,
more certain, and probably mos
economically, to plant the nuts
where trees are designed to stand.
This may be done and the ground
yearly cropped to corn, potatoes, or
small fruits, and at the end of five
years or. so it may be left in grass
if desired. As paying productive
crop, as a permanent investment,
attended with little or no labor in
the cultivation or pruning, ETC., we
know of nothing more reliable than
that of an orchard of nut bearing
trees Our native forest trees are
being rapidly destroyed, and with
out the attention of horticulturists
to the subject of growing nut bear
ing, as well as apple and pear trees,
we shall soon fiHd the products of
our native land, in this particular,
more rare than that Of foreign
shores. Already the chestnut com
mands ready sale at from eight
to twelve dollars bushel, while the
white walnut sells freely at from two
to three dollars; and yearly, as time
rolls on, these prices are enhanced
rather than reduced, becPuse of the
demand and the lessened
product by reason of cutting away
the native forest trees. We write
this having just come from an
orchard of about sixty trees, now
about twenty-five years old, and
from which the owner last year
gathered an average of over one and
q half bushels to the tree, paying
him net return, exclusive of labor |
of gathering, of over six hundred
dollars. These trees stand in pas
ture land, and when the owner was
clearing up the forest, were young
saplings and left to grow, with a
hopeful looking forward to the
present result. In our earlier days
we spent many a day gathering the
white walnut, and our recollection
is of six to eight bushels of fruit to
8 tree. for which buyers then paid |
one dollar a bushel; and as the
trees were in pasture land, the pro-
duct was a clear net gain, extremely /
acceptable to the owner.-HOrti-

The Ramie Plant.

The Liverpool correspondent of
the New York Shipping and Com
mercidl List, directs attention to
the qualities and value Of the new
vegetable product called Ramie,
which is attracting considerable at
tention in the Southwest. He sends
that paper samples of the fibre, and
also of the Cloth made from it. The
fibre is apparently much finer and
stronger than the best fax, and,
after the cleansing process, is said
to become very soft and white, TAX
ing colOrs as readily as the finest
wool or silk. The samples of cloth,
made entirely from the Ramie, re-
semble the best grades of poplin or
silk, in their strength, texture and
brilliancy. We know too little as
yet Of the Ramie plant in this coun-
try, however, to estimate the effect
of its introduction as a branch of
agricultural industry. 1t is claimed
that it is well adapted to withstand
the Southern climate and other influ
ences which have so important an
effect on the production of cotton.
Should results justify the expecta-
tons, this new product may take the
place of cotton, in some sections,
and thus supply any deficiency in
the great staple of the South. The
New Orleans Bulletin says:
"Mr. J. Buckner has shown rs
samples of the Ramie dressed for
use, and also Of the cloth, of which
we have noticed similar specimens.
There is deep interest taken in the
culture and manufacture of this val
liable plant. If the South can pro-
duce textile fabric with the agency
of the soil, climate and machinery,
it will increase the profits Of the
landholder by relieving him of some
of the cost of so much labor and
risk as attends the culture of cot
ton"
The Baton Rouge (La,) Adrocate
says:
"a small quantity of the plant
has been raised from roots planted
last spring in this vicinity. Some
that has been exhibited on the streets
shows the fibre very distinct,
although the stalks were green and
soft. There is no question but that
the Ramie will produce abundantly
in this climate, and that the separa-
ton of the fibre from the wood of
the plant is easily accomplished.
Whether or not its culture will prove
as profitable as that of cotton is yet
undetermined.

value Of fertilizers. It's difficult to
comprehend the idea, that at any
period within the last century it was
possible for men, engaged in the cul-
tivation of the soil, not to have
learned the true importance Of ma
nures. We can readily understand
how farmers, residing remote from
cities or points were manures are
purchasable, are from necessity
compelled to stint their soils, unless
the products of their barn yards are
sufficient to keep them in a state of
profitable productiveness; but we
fail to comprehend the reason why
farmers residing within easy and
convenient reach of abundant sup
plies of manurcs absolutely refuse
to avail themselves of these facilities
for enriching their soils and secur-
ing remunerative crops Happily
this great error is becoming less
prevalent. There is growing dis
position to adopt high farming,
which in its general sense means
bountiful manuring.
We have before us a work recent
IN published by Peter Henderson, OF
New York, entitled Gardening. t0I
PROFIT" aud very useful book it is,
especially to the market gardener
Mr. II. is a practical gardener, long
and favorably known in New York
and vicinity. His statements, there
fore, in regard to the quantity o.
manures used by the New YOrl
truck growers, although almost eX
ceeding credibllity, may be depend
ed upon. Our readers will doubt

Fruit Trees Mes. suitable for Planting:

Z
Concerning the proper ages of
fruit trees for planting, an expert
enced horticulturist says that
peaches should always be transplant
ed at one year from the bud; plums
cherries or dwarf pears at two
years from the bud or graft; for
standard apples or pears, good
thrifty plants, five or six feet high
and not over two or three years of
age. The best seasons for trans
planting are from the first of 0cto-
Der until December, and from the
first of March until May. Older
trees especially if they are taken up
carefully and planted inywell pre-
pared soil may do very well but on
the whole the ages above mentioned
are the best suited for planting. !
