Tree Training.

A lad OF fourteen of my acquaint-
ance SscrGe3~ hoMsrrissS' gott riisss.-.es aud
gratis and how TO secure their growth;
and then planted apple and pear plants
in his share of the garden, and SUR
prised every body by his ingenuity and
useful industry in giving them curious
forms as we'll as in improving the
house fruits. Having pair of young
trees standing foot or so apart he
secured the stems from being moved
by stalking them firmly, and then by
bonding side branches across from ono
stem to the other in April, and cutting
the ends off when they met the other
tree, shaving off one side of the tip
and slipping 1t under or through the
bark securing it by large pin and
covering of wax, he made living
ladder. Where no side branch came
right he cut a long, stout, young
shoot from another tree of the same
kind and grated it in at both ends.
In another pair he worked his initial
letter within circle. In another he
made lattice work; to another tree he
planted four young plants equidistant
and six or eight inches from its stem,
and the next year grated these in to
serve as four legs for the tree, its own
collar or leg being finally cut out.
Other trees he bent into various forms,
fastening them firmly for year until
firmly set in position, and then remov-
ing the training rods and bars. In
these exploits he secured q growth
just where he wanted it, and shaped as
he wanted by pinching all other shoots
off as soon as they began to show
themselves, just as we do with to-
mato vine when we train it to single
stem and fasten it erect as it grows,
by tying its top loosely to the stake

Turning Over a New Leaf.

Turning over new lear is ia
vOrite theme with agricultural journals
when they set about to give their peri
odical good advice at the beginning of
lew year. 1t may look like stale
subject and the advice in most cases
may remain wholly ineffective. 1t is
good, nevertheless; although often act
ed upon in wrong way. If farming
mas not paid during the year now past,
the farmer must know the reason why,
in order to be able to turn the leaf
properly. Good farming, although,
perhaps, more the exception than the
rule, never fails to pay in the long run;
but of all the grave problems of good
farming that confront the husband
man, the judicious selection of crops
with the wedding out of the unprofita-
bic ones, is one of the gravest And
here the farmer is only too apt to turn
over that new leaf to his own disad-
vantage. Aye, this turnover is one
OF the most common and most serious
mistakes that agriculturists ever make.
If the potato crop has not been profita-
BILE one year, the new leaf is at once
turned over; that is, the crop aban-
doned or the area planted largely de-
creased next year. Strawberry beds
are plowed up, raspberry plantation
and hop-yards torn up, sheep sold, ETC.,
merely because the berry, hop or wool
crops have failed to yield as fair returns
last year as they may have done a year
or two before. This turning over
new leaves" vacillating between this
crop and that, generally hitting the
Improbable seasons with what
3ver happens to be grown
most largely, is the chief reason
why farming is not found to pay
By 80 large number of farmers. The
average profits of any crop during a
term of years alone can give us a safe
basis for our calculations. The crops
that are permanently and hopelessly
Improbable are the ones to be discard
ed permanently. Most crops, if grown
in localities adapted to their produc-
ton, will yield fair average rate of
profit to those who grow them regular
ly, or, perhaps, make speciality of
them. The deficiency of one year is
generally made up by the extra good
results of another. Turning over new
leaves by everlastingly changing crops
from year to year is an operation that

against the gambler. If this has been

"A farmer had a son who showed
no special aptitude for business, and
he was puzzled what to do with him
He concluded to try an experiment. SO
he locked the boy in a room in which
there were only Bible, an apple and
a dollar. A few minutes later he
stole quietly to the room. He had
made up his mind that If he found the
boy eating the apple he would make a
good farmer. If he were reading the
Bible he should be trained for the pull
pit, and if he had taken the money
his success as a broker, his father
thought, was assured. Upon entering
the room he found the boy sitting upon
the Bible, eating the apple, with the
dollar in his pocket. The boy became
an able politician.

course of this year an authentic stand

before they set out to fulfill their pur-

SOUTHERN AGRICULTURAL


There are two plans for keeping up
q supply OF grass for hay. One Of
these Is BY making grass part Of a
system Of rotation, seeding a portion
OF the land each year to grass, and
blowing up old meadows and putting
the land In some cultivated crop, The
other is when a good stand OF grass Is
secured to keep the land In grass as
long as profitable crops can be secured,
The continued growing OF grass
crops to be out OFF for hay. without
adding, or rather supplying any thing
back to the soil to make up for
what is taken away is as certain
to gradually decrease the fertility
as the growing Of any other crop,
And 1t is iust as important II good
growth and yield of grass is secured to
have the soil as rich as 1t Is with any
other crop. So that it becomes ncces-
sary to apply sufficient fertilizers to
keep up the supply of plant food In an
available form.
When rotation Is adopted and car
ried out there is always more or less
opportunity for applying manure, and
in such way that the best results are
possible. If the land is we'll plowed
and then the manure is applied upon
the surface and properly worked into
the soil with the harrow or cultiv&tor,
it will place the soluble portions In O
condition to be of the most benefit to
the growing crops A system of
rotation and nanuring is, no doubt,
the best plan to keep up the fertility,
as the changing of the crops
as well as the manuring will increase
the amount of available plant food,
But in some localities it is somewhat
difficult to carry out plan of this
kind, for the reason that it is some~
what difficult to secure a good stand OF
grass, and often when the best of care
Is taken to prepare the soil in good
filth and SOW the seed in good season,
the weather will be such that the seed
ing will prove an entire failure. 1t is
Of course difficult under these con-
ditions to meet with the best success,
and it is then better plan to keep the
land in grass so long as good yield
can be realized. At the same time the
fertility of the soil can be kept up by
top dressing.
Whenever this plan is adopted care
should be taken to have the manure
thoroughly rotted and fined, and
then If it is spread evenly over the
surface the fertility may be kept up.
1t will be best to apply dressing FREE
quently, using less quantity than to
apply so literally that the grass will
be even partially killed out. And
the applying of too large a quantity
Of fresh, coarse manure is often the
cause of considerable damage to the
growing grass, When the supply of
manure is hardly sufficient to keep up
the fertility it will often pay to pur-
chase and use commercial fertilizers
on the meadows, and use the stable
manure upon the cultivated land.
Grass, potatoes and wheat can all be
greatly benefited by an application of
