everywhere, but few of those who plant or.

annual crops. No good farmer would
think Cor a moment Of planting his corn in
a grls. sod, and giving no cultivation q
treatment which has been very common for
young fruit trees. We are glad, however,
to see Of late years a great improvement in
the management of newly tran.plau'ed or
