There is great attraction in watching
the growth of trees. Children often plant
peach or cherry stones, apple seeds or
horse chestnuts for the sake of seeing
them sprout and grow There is no object
III nature more generally admired than II
thrifty tree. Then, too, there are many
Inducements 10 plant them. Like money
ut interest they grow while we sleep, and
they are always Il good investment. As
the larger trees and finer timber are cut
down, and the prices of lumber ana wood
i'll all their forms increase, We see Il
value in the smaller and more inferior
ones and realize the necessity of caring
for them. On almost every farm ana gar
den there are neglected corners ana rough
patches that are unuSed,-too rough and
stony to plOw, too poor Tor pasture, where
the spade can not penetrate, but INTO
which il tree seed once planted sends
down its roots and makes Il home for it
self. Nature is awaiting of these oppor-
tunltiCS all the time, but the Intelligent
helper can hasten the work.
y good deal OF labor is involved in the
transplmtlng of Il hundred trees, but little
time l. required to plant Il hundred aCrOns,
hickory nuts, ChestnutS, buttcrnuts beech
nuts or Dl1ck Waluuls Now j. the season
to put away the seed against the spring.
Nature plants these various nuts or seeds
fallen leaves in the little depression,
of the earth, and there, II they
were uudlsturDtd, many would ger
inmate and grow But the mice and
squirrels and Wurms deVour many, while
others fall under the trees SO that ii they
grow they are not in the right place and
are shaded ont. Thus but II small proper
ton OF the seeds or nuts become trees.
Mr., John Kenrick of South Orleans in
/ this State has made extensive tree plant
ingS both of pine and of deciduOus trees.
/ Ine seed of the pine protected by its shell,
preserves lis terminating power very well
| through the winter and can be
! planted in the spring. Acorns and
| the various nuts unless cared for,
dry up and mould and lose their
/ vitality. To remedy this, Mr.. kenrlck
| puts his acronS or nuts, mixed with sand,
or in layers in Il box or barrel, the bottom
OF which il bored full of holes. He then
covers the top Of the barrel or box with
wire cloth to keep out rats and mice and,
digging Il hole in the earth, burcS it five
or six inches below the turfaCe and covers
| ii up. When the frost Is out of the
ground in the spring, he eXhumes the
/ box or barrel and finds all his acOrus
or nuts sprOuted and ready To plant out.
/ With Il trOWel, they can be set Just below
/ the surface of any rough or stony ground,
/ lightly covered and they will grow with
/ great certainty. Many hundreds can be
/ planted IN day. Tins is il work that any
one can do and it is very practical and
| valuable. As we have said, now is the
/ time to get the aCrOuS or Chestnuts OF
other nuts and to put them away tOI
spring planting.
