Planting Trees.
nu our AGRICULTURAL editor.

Au'umn is certainly the best time of the
year 10 this latitude for planting all trees
and plants Evergreens we would put out
IN spring. Planted now the soil gets set
tied about the roots and they make some
growth and get a hold on the soil before
spring. Then, as soon as warm weather
comes, The sap starts and the trees begin to
grow at once.
Tho philosophy Of fall planting is this.
Now the soil is warmer than the air and so
rsma us for sometime later This enables
ths roots to grow little before the coolest
weather comes on.
At this season the soil il more generally
10 dry and friabIe Co dtion, not so wet
and sticky, especially in clay, and 30 does
not pack like mortar about the roots to
check their growth or to induce disease.
All shade and fruit trees or plants not
evergreen, and all ornamental plants of a
woody nature, ought to be transplanted at
this season. After the plant is we'll and
firmly set into the ground, cover the soil a
little way around with some coarse manure,
to act as a mulch for the roots and yield
some fertility. But do not have enoagh to
harbor mice, that might gnaw the roots or
stem.
In orchards of large trees scatter ashes
freely over the surface. Mari or lime is
beneficial to all woody plants. Put only
! rich earth about the roots when planting a
| tree. Rich animal manure es BARN.
Plant trees, and bless posterity Under
| Appeal.
