Valuable Suggestions for Treating This
nIight of the Orchard.

Blight of tho Orchard.
The Baltimore american is responsi-
Bile for the following:
The ycllows have caused immense
loss throughout the lower peach dis
tricts, and it has appeared also In places
in the mountain ranges within the past
year. II seems to be more virulent
where large orchards abound, and espec-
tally where such orchards are laid down
to grass and insuiliciently fortified.
Trees well fertilizcd and well MANFRED
with rotted manures or bone and given
space, so that air can circulate freely
around them, have been comparatively
exempt from this fatal disease. At
times, especially like the present year,
the disease appears to be in the air.
One week entire orchards appear green
and healty; the next week most sorry
tree will appear sickly and the leaves
turning yellow, showing conclusively
that the disease is at work.
In a careful examination, extending
over number of years in different parts
Of this state, in the Middle States, and,
also, in Connecticut, the writer is Of the
opinion that the main cause of the
yellows is in planting upon thin land,
without thorough preparation of the
sell, lack of cultivation, in not fertiliZ-
ing properly, and in planting diseased
stock.
Ii will be noticed that young trees are
rarely affected with it, but trees in their
fifth or sixth year are the ones generally
attacked. Young trees are usually
planted on virgin soil, carefully pre-
pared, we'll fortified and the soil kept
well cultivated between the rows. AS
long as this cultivation, fertilization and
care is followed the orchard is thrifty
and healthy; when this is abandoned
the yellows appear. The writer has no.
ticed orchards of 10000 trees, as well as
where only dozen trees were planted,
that the same general principles hold
true. When the disease once gets firm
footing upon the orchard it is best to
grub up and burn, and work the land
in some other crops for some years.
In an orchard of some three hundred
trees, fortified with rotted manure and
bone, and carefully worked in potatoes,
after the potatoes We're harvested, sown
in rye to be turned under early, the fol-
1 lowing season every tree was found
sound and healthy, and the leaves beat
tiful and green. Upon an adjoining
farm, separated only by fence, but
with poor culture and little manuring,
many of the trees are diseased, and are
being grubbed up. In Anne Arundel
county exactly the same condition OF
affairs was found to exist In Connec-
ticut healthy trees, bearing fine large
| Mell-tlavIed fruit, were invariably
/ found tylapn fora IN, the
