Fertilizing Fruit Trees.

1t appears at first sight . strange
practice to roo prune with a view to
check luxuriant growth and then to
manure the soil to encourage the tree
to its strength by the applica-
ton of a fertilizing agent. But this is
the practice that many excellent culti-
vators have found it ~expedient to adopt
where r%oot-pruning has been carried
out. The explanation is that root-prun-
ing properly performed only sewers the
largest roots and it is acknowledged
that these large roots are only useful
in promoting an undue luxuriance in
the branches, which, in the case of trees
with a limited fruit-bearing surface, is
not desired and therefore their removal
is a necessity. But anything that will
promote the formation of fbrous roots
within a reasonable distance of the sur
face is essential to promote fruitfulness.
For this purpose many have found. in
dealing with a soil that is not naturally
rich, that it is necessary to apply a
dressing of farm-yard manure over the
roots to encourage them to increase in
number and extend in usefulness.
Very much depends upon the char
acter of the soil and the way in which it
is treated. When the soil is good and
deep, and manure is freely applied to it
for the use of vegetable crops grown
neal the trees, no surface manuring
will be required. But in the case of
gardens where a space is set apart for
fruit trees of this form, and where no
manure is applied for the use of other
crops, it is often necessary to give the
trees the benefit of a layer of
on the roots Immediately after the root
pruning is completed. The proper way
to apply the dressing is to remove four
or five inches of the soil over the roots
and then lay the manure on them,
placing the soil back again on the top
of it. Unless the soil is very poor and
the growth weak, once in three years
will be often enough to apply the dress
ing. But in al extreme case it may be
applied annually. In our W case, in
one part of the garden where the soil is
not very good, we find it necessary to
take notice of the growth of trees, and
if we find any of them not quite so Wig
orous as they should be, we apply the
manure oftener than On the better
ground where the growth is of average
vigor.-EngHsh Gardener.

The fact has long been well known
that wood ashes placed in kegs or

a fact that the wheat crop in some of

and far enough apart SC that the rims
of the glasses will just touch each other.

Lovers of that sturdy old New
England dish, baked beans, may bs
glad to know of a new wrinkle il
preparing it, suggested by Mr.. Phil

knew what a delicious dish celery
makes with common baked beans, there
would be a larger sale for it. Chop ~

beans; season with vinegar and mustart
to taste; you will call for a second plate
of it every time.
