CELERY IN DED-,

rhe ordinary distances at which celerl

soil is sufficiently rich, and proper atten

the waste fruit ground for
cider yields from 200 to 500 bushels of
apple seed to the nursery trade yearly.
In a good year for frui. the crop of seed
in apples and stone fruits equals or eX-
cceds the average crop of wheat in the
same locality. And then the LEAKAGE,
year by year carried away by the winds
of autumn, removes large amount of
choice and necessary minerals extracted
from the soil by the roots. Added TO
this is much of the same matter with
drawn from the soil and deposited per-
manently in the wood growth.
Most of the complaint of the un-
prottableness of orcharding comes from
ignoring the demands of the crop upon
the soil, and of the soil, thus weakened,
upon the orchardist. An underfed or
chard is apt TO prove rs Improbable rs

in quantity, size and quality, and such
fruit is getting less and less profitable

crops. Orchdrd and Gdriea.

ABOUT CUTTING ASPARAGUS.

A cultivator of this delicious vegetable
says that II is bad practice in cutting
asparagus to leave the small shoots that are
not large enough for use. The better way
is to cut all off clean, until the middle OF
June. Then all cutting should cease,
and the plants be allowed to make their
summer growth. The old practice Of
planting the roots deeply below the sur
face, and cutting the shoots as soon rs
they pushed through the ground, with
barely green tip, is exploded. Green
flavor. An weeds should be keps down
and the soil stirred enough to bc ut all
times loose and friable on the surface.
