The Gathering of Ripe Fruit.

The following is by Joseph Hooper, a
celebrated fruit grower and writer on hor-

seasonablo and useful t. the fruit grower:
I'm regard to the gathering of ripe
fruits of different kinds. no fruit shouli be
taken from The tree or plant during IL damp
time. and especially when the dew is
plentiful in early morning. Never be so
hurried us to find any cause for the excuse.
had no time 10 hand pick my fruit, and
cons quently was forced to shake them off.
for such is poor pc icy. Fruit so gathered
will almost inevitably decay from effects
OF r'lises. Each Specimen should be tax
en- from The tree one by one, handled us if
they had bee n so many eggs The slight
est hruise or abrasion of The skin is the
sure fo'e-rnnner of IL dark spot. which
will ev' ntually change into some form of
rot The sp res of seed of fungi are al
ways ready 10 assist in the work of disso-
luton. and the slightest scratch gives
them foothold for their destructive wo k.
Scarcely any variety of the large st fruits
col"r or ripen so well if left to perfect
fmselves on The tree. and especially is
this true in respect to pears. Summer
varieties. as they approach maturity, loos-
en- their hold somewhat from the limb. and
by gently raising the fruit they win easily
dsiaeh themselves at the proper period.
This is an excellent test. and may always
be relied on. To color up fruit nicely, all
that is necessary will be to spread a
blanket on the floor of a cool room, and
tbs thinly ard evenly place the fruit ON
The hCcr. A second blanket must be
