CARE OF FRUIT TRIES.
One of the most fruitful causes of
the decay and death of fruit trees in
Texas is sun scald. Bv sun scald is
meant the scorching of the trunk OF
the tree by the direct action of the
sun. Some varieties OF fruit are not
easily affected while others are very
susceptible.
Apples are perhaps more easily
injured than any other fruit. but
every tree will thrive better by having
its trunk protected from the
direct rays of the sun.
This should be kept in
view at planting time, when the tree
should be cut back to within " feet
of the GROUND and be set with a slight
inclination towards the south. set

leave the trunk exposed to the midday
and afternoon sun. Where this
error has been committed it is
wisdom to place something on the
exposed side Of the tree as screen
piece of board pointed at ona end and
driven into the soil, or few corn stalks
tied round the sunny side of the trunk will
answer the purpose When trees are well
grown in an orchard they will generally
shade each other, except on the south edge,
| so that the protection suggested is only
necessary during the early years OF trees
life.

him. Then the dog owner brought suit for
$l15 damage, and strange to say won q
verdict for $40 including costs. In the
strange "opinion" rendered by the Judge.
he said that while man must pay for
damage done by his dog, he must also be
paid for the dog il IL Is killed. The man
who killed the dog, he said, must take the
chances of being Obliged to pay for III The
