Watch Newly-Plantea Trees.

The present season has been all that
could be desired for trees and plants
set last spring. 1t has been cool and
wet, excellent for the development of
foliage. The moist weather giving
abundant foliage has developed plenty
of root, but this root like that of any
plants in saturated soil is superficial. 1T
the season had been less wet, the root
growth would have been less. but it
would have been deeper The ten days
without rain in this vicinity during the
last of July, caused greater distress to
corn and garden crops than would have
been the case from three weeks of
drought in an ordinarily dry season.
Trees planted last spring and not
watered showed unmistakable signs of
suffering. Those who understood their
business prevented this, by giving the
soil a good soaking once a week.
The difficulty with those planters who
have not studied the nature of the
plants they cultivate is that they seldom
give water enough. They water often
enough, sometimes too often, but super
ficially. 1t is dissipated by the first
sun, and scarcely reaches the roots at
all. Let us Illustrate in this way: The
water in a rond that is one foot deep
has the same number of superficial feet
for evaporation, as the pond four or
more feet deep. So it is with super
fetal watering. The inch or two of
surface moistened Is soon dried ont.
the roots having received almost no
good from the watering.
In the case of continual superficial
waterings the disability TO the tree is
intensified; the roots extend nearer and
nearer the surface rather than down.
ward. The autumn finds the tree with
all its roots near the surface, and the
next season, if dry one, often kills it
outright. In fact the second season is
considered to be the most critical in the
life of a recently planted tree if it be
deficient in rain. Hence the planter OF
ornamental trees and shrubs will see
the necessity of careful watching oi
planted trees, especially such as have
not made fair leaf growth, for according
to the amount OF leaf growth so will be
! the root, for it is we'll known that there
is no root growth until the leaves
expand; and, hence, again, the reason
why an evergreen may be planted at any
season, and for the reason that the
| leaves are always more or less active
In fact deciduous trees may be most
successfully planted when in leaf if only
the leaves be kept from willing. Sc
also it is well known that tree with
| plenty of top will make roots faster
than a tree cut nearly or quite to a bare
pole.
Science then, in tree planting, is te
see first, that they never suffer fol
want OF mo sture at the roots; and sec
ond, that the roots be induced to strike
deep as quickly as possible -Prairi,

THIS story of strange practice is told
of a Kansas lawyer: The law requires
that person must be twenty one years
old before he can pre-empt land. When
one comes to ask if he can evade this
law and have his boys, who lack some
years of being twenty-one, 'proye up"
some land, the attorney smiles serenely
and says: "Of course: certainly; it is
the easiest thing il the world!" And
when the time comes to make out the

ing on the subject of potato growing:
