BREAK UP THE ORCHARD.-ThoSe
who have orchards that. have long
been seeded down and used as
pasture or meadow, will usually
find that the growth Of the trees
and size of the fruit will be greatly
improved by breaking mp the old
sward and blowing under the grass,
leaves, and whatever rotten and
decaying fruit there may be on the
surface. Apple, pear, and other
kinds of fruit trees exhaust the
fertility of the soil as much or even
more than the ordinary farm crops,
and the loss should be made good
in some way, either by turning
rAGetable matter that VIII
decay, or Oy So-Sace appncauons
of fertilizers. The fall, as soon as
the fruit is gathered, is an ex-
cellent time to break up the soil
in an orchard, for not only will the
vegetable matter turned under de.
cay to some extent during the
winter, but many noxiOus insects
will be killed in the operation, and
in the spring the ground can b.
soon made ready for the reception
of the seed of whatever kind of
crop is to be put in.

~ sa common notion among

easily and effectively as weeds, and

tOp-dresSing is given where these
are to be sown a decided improve E.
ment in the crop will follow. Night
soil can be utilized to good advan-
tage by applying it between the
rows and hoeing in.
1t is as easy to care for an acre
of beets grown in the field as for
an acre of corn or potatoes. Make
tue rows nearly or quite three feet
apart, drill the seed with the plan
term straight lines, and most of
the labor can be done with the
horse cultivatOrs.
Ifland is to be fall plOwed for any
purpose the earlier it is done the
better. Ifa growth of annual weeds
start they win not have time to rip
en their seeds if the blowing is done
in September. All the seeds thus
terminated help to make the land
cleaner and by their decay richer.
American farmers find that tur-
nips or rutabagas leave the land
clean from weeds, but much less
fertile than before they were grown.
English farmers say the turnip Is
a reuovating crop, but it is so only
By feeding the crop on the ground
where grown, together with much
grain OF oil meal.
The great difficulty in applying
stable manure to onions is that it's
full Of seeds, making large extra
expensein wedding. 1t also makes
the soil too light. Mineral fertili-
GERS furnish no weed seeds, and
their effect is to slightly harden the
ground, causing better setting
and fewer solutions.
Early fall blowing has double
advantage; it leaves a longer per

disintegrating effects on the rocky
. fragments of soil, and the vegeta-

SAYS, repels squirrels and worms
from eating the seed. The seed
CONES up quicker, the plants grow
more vigorously and ripen several
DAYS earlier than from seed not so
treated.
Farmers who find difficulty in
Keeping squash vines from being
devoured by their enemies, can
succeed by planting on newly clear
Ell land far removed from the gar
den where these insect pests are
wintered over from year to year.
It is well to use plenty of manure
even on virgin soil. The squash
vine is a gross feeder and on land
made rich enough the yield is pro-
portionally large.
With many farmers Oat straw is
nearly as impOr Iant a part of the
crop as the grain. Where this is
the case oats should be cut rather
green, bound and put mp in stocks
with capped top to prevent the
rain getting inside. The stock is
built rounding with peaked top and
q sheaf Of oats opened at the butt
and spread over the point. They
will cure perfectly in this shape,
and when thoroughly dry may be
drawn TO The barn and tbreshed.
