space as apples, as their branches are more
erect. For them 25 feet apart is quite
sufficient. Dwarf pears and ounces may
be planted as close as 8 or 10 feet. Plums
and apricots we would place 18 or 20 feet
apart. But few of our readers, however,
will be disposed to plant many of those
smooth skined fruits, until some means OF
protecting them from the ravages of the
Curculio, is discovered. Wemay remark
that these varieties should be planted in
such situations that the pigs aud poultry
may have access to them, as they will eat
all the punctured and wormy fruit that
falls, and thus prevent the rapid increase
of that destructive insect. In this way
small portion at least Of the crop may be
saved to the planter.
Having determined the distance to plant,
the next step is to lay out the ground and
dig the holes. Those who desire to have
their rows perfectly straight, may take the
trouble to stretch long cords across the
land, and drive in pins at those points
where the trees are to stand. We have
found that good plowman with steady
team could lay out the ground with sufi-
cient accuracy. and much more rapidly.
He should be provided with light poles,
say 20 feet long, at each end of the land
and in any considerable depressions that
may be in the middle of the ground
These poles enable him to find quickly and
accurately the right points at which to
start in, and should then be stuck up at
the same distance to guide him on the next
return furrow. After the ground has been
marked off 10Th aoays, the holes may be
dug at the intersection of the burrows.
In transplanting. the roots should be
exposed as little as possible to the sun and
wind. Where many are to be set out. our
practice is to unpack each sort and heel
them in lightly in that part Of the ground
selected for them. A very little earth
thrown over the roots will keep them fresh;
and they can be readily drawn ont as
wanted. The trees should not be set
deeper than they grew before, and the
roots should be spread out we'll in the hole
before the earth is thrown in upon them.
After the hole is filed, the earth may be
settled either by pouring in water or tread
ing with the foot. The former is prefer
able, but almost impracticable in many
situations. and where large numbers are
to be planted.
u All trees are checked in growth more OF
less by transplanting; the peach least ol
any. It should be pruned very close when
transplanted. as it will soon re-produce
more vigorous branches than those brought
from the nursery. Our plan is to lop Of
every limb from our peach trees as soon as
they are set out, and then cut the tops ol
all in the orchard back to about same
height from the ground, say 81 or 4 feet
} This gives them all fair and equal star'
, in life; and in all subsequent prunings We
endeavor to keep their heads round and
uniform. Every peach grower knows thai
young trees which have been closely prun'

A party of US would sometimes take a

THE CULTURE OF ORCHARDS.

Having in our last number given some
facts in relation to the value of orchards,
we propose now to add few directions in
relation to the culture and management Of
fruit trees. Aud first as to the prepara-
ton of the soil. On this point, our advice
is manure, plow and pulverize as thorough
ly as for crop of corn. II the land is
stiff, and you can run q sub-soiler after
your turning plow, so much the better
This will give more rapid growth after
transplanting. If you are unable to use
a sub-soil plow, or if the land is very poor,
large holes should be dug for the trees,
and some rich earth and we'll rotted ma
nure applied at planting. In laying out
the ground for transplanting it is Unnecessary
to know the proper distances for each sort.
If too distant from each other, waste OF
land is the result; if too near, they crowd
each other, and prevent the growth and
ripening Of the fruit to the best advantage.
In fertile soil, 40 feet is the greatest dis
tance required for apple trees. The usual
distance. and which would be quite suffi-
cient on most of our Anne Arundel land.
is 33 feet. Large growing STANDARD cher
ry trees we would plant at same distance
as apples. For the Dukes and Morellos,
half that space would be sufficient. ID
laying out peach orchards it is usual to al
low 20 feet, and we think that is the best
distance on our soils; but if the shortening
IN system Of pruning was annually prac-
tised, they might be planted at 1S or even
l15 feet - -
