FRUIT TREEs.-N fruit grower needs
telling that young fruit trees like the ground
shaded. The best way to shade is what
growers differ about. Many grow crops
through their orchards, and truckers grow
vegetables through theirs. 1t does not
matter IN what shape the shading comes,
80 that 1t does not rob The trees Of nourlsll-
ment. The GOODNESS afforded the ground
by growing crops Is just what fruit trees
like. Many bring about the samc result by
mulching the ground, and where the land
is too poor to sustain both crop and the
trees, this is the best plan.
