SET APPLE TREES.


1t certainly must occur to the thoughtful
and enterprising farmer that apple tree cul-
ture is both pleasant and profitable. AL
though our climate here does not seem par
ticularly adapted to the raising of the APP
Pile, I think, however, its culture may be
quite success. l would not advise any one
to place any great amount of confidence in
an apple tree agent as regards varieties to
set. as it is, perhaps, quite well known that
most nurserymen endeavor to originate va
riety that they think they can make run
on. Many times, perhaps, they do this with
honest intentions. They will graft heavily
of some petted variety until they have a
large stock on hand. Soon you are inter-
viewed by their agent, who sets forth the
merits of this particular variety in high col
ors. 1t would be unwise for him to do any
other way. Anxious generally to dispose Of
their entire stock before there has been time
to give the said variety fair test, the result
is, generally, you are sadly disappointed in
the fruit Gf the tree lives to fruit that you
gather from these trees. And if you chance
to meet them two or three years after your
purchase and would like to be treasured as
regards the merits of this variety, the major
ity of them will tell you ''Oh, no, they did
not hardly come up to our expectations
they don't seem to stand our winters, and
they are light bearers /; but we have just the
thing now-biggest thing out. - Casting
L, e. 81 I.
no agent, but go into some orchard near you
that has been set eight or ten years note
the varieties that have stood and done best
And here L would say that it requires but
little study to enable one to distinguish the
varieties in the general make up of the tree,
the color of the bark, the style in which the
limbs make out from the body, and the
crotches, all of which are characteristics that
will be found in no two varieties. Then 90
to our nearest nurseryman and from the va
rieties you have taken note of select your
trees, either two or three years old. Select
upright, thrifty growing trees, assisting in
the work Of taking up yourself. Keep the
roots from being exposed to drying winds
and sun as much as possible. Select piece
OF ground elevated enough to properly drain
itself, and with a northern. slope. Stake off
no closer than twenty feet, remove all mali
gled roots with a sharp. knife set little
nearer than they stood in the nursery row,
filling in around the roots with mellow, moist !
soil, workingit in around them with your
hand, and when this is all done, fence it with
| good, substantial fence a; and then resolve
hat for the next ten years you will replace
With good nursery tree every tree that gets
! death wound, from accident or any cause,
md will guarantee at the expiration of that
ime that money could not induce you to
bandon apple culture -WesterR Rural.

with view of making bacon that would
beat anything in that lae ever shipped
west from Chicago or st. Louis These
hams he carefally suspended in the

in the best possible mauper. During
the recent cold spell rousing fires were
absolutely necessary aud Of course the
hams were warmed ups little more than
WAS necessary TO mike good bacon

He has commented pretty freely upon
the oaangs which took place in the

friends. some of whom have advised
him to get patent for the discovery
that heat will convert hams into char.
