CurioSties M PomologH-SImo
years ago one OF our citizens bought
and set out thirty youpg apple trees
On one Of them he neglected to remove
The W OGDEN label which was attached
to one Of the limbs by a copper wire.
Two years later he found that the
copper wire was entirely imbodled
mud out OF sight, 10 Tia, ba'k of the
tree, and that year the limb was SO
heavily laden with apples that he
was obliged to prop it up, while there
was not blossom or apple on any
other limb Last year one OF our
ncighbors, when his yonog apple
trees we're in full blossom, carefully
lirdled some limbs on several trees,
aud the blossoms PRODUCED 10 fruit
on the limbs thus treated but this
year those limbs have blossomod full
and no blossoms on th, limbs that
boro last year. Pomologists may
profit 10y further experiments in that
