THE APPLE ORCHARD.
rhIrty-EIght Brief Rules for the Care
an Apple Orchard.

rhIrty-EIght Brief Rules for tho Care Of
an Apple Orchard.
For successful orcharding, there are
many requisites to be observed which
are given in extended articles, and
which on account of their length the in
experienced are apt to overlook. They
may therefore be more useful If con-
densed in the following thirty-eight
brief rules:
/. Select a good soil, such as will
raise good farm crops.
Q. Make it mellow at once, or with
previous mellowing crops.
3. Hillsides Of the rocky places are
admissible only in case plenty of barn
manure can be had for annual top
dressing.
4. See that the land has good natural
or artificial drainage.
8. Choose young andl vigorous trees,
not over two years old from the graft.
8. See that ample roots are secured in
digging g-enough to stifEAn the tree
without. stalking, and give ready
growth.
z. Avoid large, overgrown or stunted
trees, which have short roots mutilated
by digging.
8. Remember that a good supply OF
roots is more important than straight
stems or handsome heads
0. Procure well-proved standard vari-
cites, and not new lauded sorts.
TO- If trees from distance are partly
dry when received, bury them for a
week, top and all, in finely pulverized,
moist soil, to restore them.
II. Before setting out dig holes broad
enough to receive all the roots without
bending.
10. Use no manure, except on the sur
face after setting, or in the remote parts
of large holes.
49, In setting out spread the roots
out equally on all sides, at their full
length, and fill in compactly fine mel
low earth.
Il. After set, shorten back the long
shoots and thin out where too thick,
giving neat, even, moderate head.
is. Always shorten back before the
buds swell, and never when partly or
wholly in leaf
1e Keep the ground for several feet
around the newly-set trees clean aAd
mellow all summer.
II. Keep the ground cultivated over
the whole surface for six or eight years
after transplanting; after which allow
grass to grow only in case a good annu-
al or biennial top dressing Of manure
can be given
is. As the roots Of growing trees are
as long as their height, avoid the mis-
take Of spading or manuring marrow cir
cles around the foot Of the stem, but
cultivate the whole surface.
10. Preserve a smooth cledr stem by
promptly removing ell suckers

1t is estimated that the annual pro-
duction of the farms of Tennessee are
equal to thirty per cent. of their value.
If this be true, then the farms of the
State pay taxes equal to about five per
cent of the value of their annual prod
ucts. Now If our corporations are will
ing to stand along with our farmers in
bearing the burdens of taxation, we sug-
gest to the Legislature, as means of
avoiding all possibility Of double taxa
tion, that it pass an act taxing all cor
porations five per cent. of the gross
earnings of their business in the State
of Tennessee. What will our corpora
tions say to that?-Clarksville Demo-
crat
The Southern herald., 1890-04-11

20. Clover and sowed grain should
never Be allowed In young orchards
grass, Il kept short and annually top
dressed with manure, is admissible
hoed crops, IS corn and potatoes, dC
well; and clear culture Is best.
81. In well-managed orchards much
pruning Is unnecessary, and when per
formed, do but little in any ono year
thin tho outside Of the head and not the
center, and paint all wounds
%. Undesirable fruits, or those proved
untitled for the climate, may be changed
TO good ones by grating; several gratis,
spread over the heads, will soon form
bearing trees. For large trees, divide
the grating through two or three sea.
sons.
%. For home use, set out good varie-
ties enough to keep up constant sue
cession from the midsummer kinds
throughout autumn and winter, and OF
long-keepers to last through spring till
the ripening of strawberries.
o. For market, choose such as bear
heavy crops of salable apples, and plant
orchards only in such places as they
succeed we'll in, and find ready sale
at the most profitable times of the year.
25. If trees are received when frozen,
they will be killed If thawed in air; but
if compactly buried in mellow soil be-
fore thawing, they will not be injured.
20. Mice are excluded in winter by a
smooth, compact conical mound of soil
around the stem of each tree, to be lev
eled again in spring.
81. Old trees may be pushed into new
life, and bearing by top-dressing we'll c
circle two rods in diameter about them,
and pruning out dead shoots,
2S. As soon as young orchard is set
out, register the varieties in an account
book, otherwise the label being lost be-
fore bearing, loss and confusion Of
names will result.
30. Tools for cultivating orchards
without tearing up roots are the Acme
smoothing harrow, shares and disk har-
row.
80. Destroy codling moths by destroy
ing with paris green and london purple,
and punch borers in their holes with
flexible wire.
81. Farmers who allow cattle to break
into their young orchards should 70.
member that fences are as important as
manure,
82. Planting in thin soil, setting trees,
hurriedly and allowing weeds and grass
possession of hard and crusted earth,
will not accumulate silver and gold.
SO. Planting large nursery trees, care
lessly dug with short and mutilated
roots, will prove Improbable.
"a. Shortening back the heads of new
ly-transplanted trees after the opening
of the leaves, instead OF before the
swelling of the buds, checks the growth
and seriously Injuries them.
80. Allowing weeds and grass to grow
in young orchards invites mice and stunts
the trees.
36. Permitting suckers to grow around
the trunks and those making wasteful
brush-heap, spoils the trees.
81. Setting young orchards in mead
ows and grain fields often destroys
them.
5S. Pruning too much at time, in
stead Of a light pruning in successive
years, if needed, Injuries the vigor Of
rees.-Country Gentleman.

4 Steamer for the Lake.

Engineer Oberg, OF the street
railway power house, has perfected
n plan for 4 steamer for the Great
Salt Lake. His drawings represent
n handsome craft, capable Of carry
ing $50 passengers. He says that 1t
can easily make a trip from Garfield
Beach, around Church Island TO
Syracuse, and back to Garfield,
touching at lake Park, in q day,
and at an expense for operating
that is trivial compared to
that which il has cost for run
ing the steamers that have
Piled on the lake. Mr.. Oberg
Is n competent engineer, having
been educated in the Swedish naval
service, and has built several vessels,
some OF them larger than the one
now projected. There Is fine OPP
pOrtunity on the lake for a pleasure
boat Of the dimensions In this plan,
and any one with capital TO invest
in such an enterprise should consult
Mr.. Oberg, whose figures for con-
struction are far below those charged
by the steamers that have been
brought here.
