I'D IN many cases avoid
the danger of water resting around the
root, as we'll as be more expeditlously
performed All our plants suffer much
by being planted too late in spring; the
summer drouth operating before the tree
has formed its root-system.
The Horticulturist says that in plant
ing this fall, all should remember that 1t
is requisite to set the tree only just so
deep as to enable it to stand for we can
place earth around it so as to protect it
from heaving off the winters frost, and
as soon as spring opens and the ground
is leveled down, the roots will start and
seek their appropriate depth. If we dig
a deep hole, especially in hard clay soil,
and fill ii with good loan, and set our
tree therein, we first invite the water
there as into cistern-and second, We
cause vigorous growth of roots until
they reach the uudisturbed clay, when a
check is at once perceptibe; and often
an orchard stands from FIVE TO seven
years without apparently making any
progress. Remember, then, and plant
your trees just so deep as to cover their
roots, but no more then earth up for a
winter protection against frost for the
first year, and dress down again to level
in the spring.
The Hickman courier. [volume] (Hickman, Ky.) 1859-current, 1868-11-14
Potato Culfure-HOyy to GrOv-
Early Potatoes

The Memphis Southern Farmer gives
some directions for growing early pota-
toes, which are at least worth a trial. The
plan is to prepare a set of shallow boxes,
two and a half to three inches deep
select for seed all that have good strong
eJes at the blossoms or seed end, and cut
off each eye with bit of the potatoe
attached The blossom eyes are No. /.
the middle eyes No. 2, the base eyes No.
3, which are to be kept separate. No. l
will start and ripen first. Cover the bot
tom of the box with compost or sand
set the eyes so that they will touch each
other, then FL with sand or compost. If
common soil is used, the sets will pc apt
to stick together and make hard mass,
while with sand they will easily separate
Keep in warm place, and wet with
warm water. From two to three weeks
will bring them into a condition for
planting, which in this vicinity should
be about the first of April. 4 few days
before planting water should De with
held, for the purpose of easily separat-
ing the roots Careful and repeated
shaking is required to separate them. If
any are too forward at planting, and
there is danger of frost, they may be laid
down and covered with earth. A cor
respondent at Burnsville, Ind, gives the
following as his plan for raising pOta-
toes:
Plow your ground deeply, harrow
down smooth, mark out three feet apart,
drill or plant in hills as you like, cover
shallow with dirt, on top of which place
straw (if partly rotted all the better) ten
or twelve inches thick. You now have
nothing to do in the potato patch until
digging time, when you raise the straw
and take out the potatoes, which will
be found in large yield, and nice and
clean.n

MuLcHING PEACH TREEs-A cor
respondent of the Prairie Farmer, vri-
ting from WiIlsville, says that last year
friend of his threshed his oats in his
orchard and then placed his chaF under
a peach tree to the depth of twelve or
fourteen inches. The result was that re
OF the same variety on other trees. He
wishes to know if it would be injurious
to young trees to protect them in that
manuer from severe frosts through win
ter. Mulehing under most conditions is
valuable, and to a small extent practical
biz, but our large peach orchards must
depend mainly on clean, thorough eul-
.nre for their fine crops. Thorough cal
ture would have presented the ssme re-
suits as did the oat chaff.

Fall Planting OF vines and Fruit
Tress


Now is the time to attend to the Inn.
portant matter of planting vines and
fruit trees. A correspondent of the
Rural World says:
The foliage vines is now nearly dead:
on apples 1t may be removed with safety
and planting can be undertaken with ad !.
vantage. Some think that if the plant
oy the first of January, it is fall plant
ing but to this we take exception: the
iuii benefit OF fall planting is only to be
expected by being done in October or
November. While the arguments that
arse from the questions of the leisure
the condition of the soil, the condition of
the plants-are all in favor of fall nIant-
lng-still, much care and judgement are
necessary IN regard to soil and other cir
stances. Attention must be given to the
making of the holes. We must see that
deep holes are not dug, so as to hold
water and have the roots standing in min
iature ponds all winter. In planting |
cut the broken off clean with sharn
knife. Trim the head in a symmetrical
manner, and raise the soil to the stem of
me tree, so as to steady u against the
sInd the soil to be removed in spring.
with vines we operate in a similar man
covering the cane, when cut off TO the
proper height, with three or four inches
If earth. If instead of making holes
