In regard to the apricot, great di fficulty
Ia found in its successful cultivation on &C.
count of its early blossoming and of the
curculio. They should be placed on the
north side of hill, house or fences, and
should be heavily mulched. If protected
by stakes, the pasturing of hogs and sheep
among them is safe protection from the
curculio; and SO is band of cotton around
the tree about three feet from its base,
with the fbrous edge up and turned out,
with perhaps some tar on it; but tar should
