Moving Trees in the Fall.

In order to get the benefit Of time,
which is so necessary in the healing of
wounds, as well as for the production of
new roots, the trees should be taken up
flom the nursery rows in the fall, and
then heeled-ln, burying the roots so deep
that they viii be beyond the reach of
frost during the winter months. In such
a position, the healing process will pro-
ceed slowly, but surely, and by the time
the frost is out OF the ground in spring,
The roots on carefully heeled-in, or buried
trees, VIII have commenced to throw out
new rootIets, and when placed in their
final position, they will push earlier and
more vigorously than trees taken up from
the nursery in spring.
\ rather dry place should be selected
for burying the roots of trees, because,
II water settles about their roots, it will
retard, il 1t does not entirely prevent the
healing of wounds. 1t is well to cover
about one-half the stems, from the roots
upward the remainder may be protected
with evergreen boughs, or coarse bog
hay. or some similar material. Straw
should never be used for this purpose if
it can be avoided, because it is certain to
attract mice. Soft wooded trees, like the
magnolias, tulip, papaw, and lindens,
require more protection when heeled- in
in the fall, than the hard wooded kinds,
and whenever practicable, they should be
kept in cool cellars. Andrew S. Fuller
