way of peach trees in the neighbor-

FRUIT TREES,

Fruit trees which have attained
to a bearing size and have not
fruited can be helped along in the
desired way in more ways than one.
The most common way in this
country is to root prune the trees,
but in Europe it is the custom to
rely great deal on summer prun-
ing. This method is known here,
but not practiced to the extent it is
in England, Root pruning causes
fruitfulness by checking the vigor
of the tree. The principle is we'll
understood among florists and gar
deners, as we'll as by those engaged
in fruit growing. If the florist has
a plant he desires should grow larg-
er instead of Towering, he carefully
removes all flower buds, and shifts

STORING WINTER VEGETA-
BLES
Indiana Farner.)

(lnulana FARMER
Before storing any fruits or vege-
tables in the cellar for winter use
it should be thoroughly cleaned,
fumigated and whitewashed. Sui
phur sprinkled on live Goals and
burned in the cellar, keeping it well
closed meanwhile, is a good and
cheap disinfectant; or carbolic acid
may be used in the whitewash and
sprinkled into every cLack and
crevice of the floor, A dry cellar
is necessary to keep vegetables in
good condition. The dryer the bet
ter, and it is also less liable to
freeze ifperfectly dry, SO that drains
must be kept in repair, A peck of
lime put in the cellar will absorb
much dampness, while charcoal
frequently renewed will absorb UNI
pleasant OdOrs.
All vegetables should be gathered
in dry time SO that as little soil
will adhere to them as possible.
Beets, turnips, carrots, parsnips
and such things should have the
tops removed, and do not cut into
the vegetable itself. Then lightly
pack in sand or dry earth, in bar
rels of boxes and store in a cool cell
lar; the cooler the better, so they
do not frost. Large quantities that
are to be kept for spring use or
spring trade, can safely be stored
in pits in the ground and they will
be fresh and crisp in the spring.
Onions should always be gathered
when the ground is perfectly dry,
for damp soil clinging to them will
surely cause them to rot. They
keep best in a dry, cool, well-ven-
tilated place, and do not take kind
ly to being placed in heaps or bins,
and will keep in better condition if
spread in thin LAYERS.
Cabbages should be left in the
garden as late as possible so as not
to be damaged by frost. On a
bright, sunny day they should be
pulled and set on their head for two
or three hours to drain. Then they
may be closely planted on loose
soil. put in the cellar for that pur-
pose, provided the cellar is cool and
we'll ventilated; or they may be
hung by the roots in the cellar.
But the secret of their keeping we'll |
in the cellar is to have it cool and |
ventilated.
Another way is to sink a barrel
about three fourths of it's depth in
the ground, trim off the roots and
rough outside leaves, pack closely |
but without bruising, fill the mouth |
of the barrel with straw, cover with |
something-an old piece of carpet
will answer-and throw on enough |
dry dirt to keep them from freez-
ing. Or, if there are many to be
stored, a very shallow trench may
be dug and a layer of clean, dry
straw put in, then the we'll drained
heads set on, heads downward, and
covered with dry straw and then
with dry earth until they will not
freeze.

food. On the other hand if it il
growing continually without flower
ing and he desires it to flower, he
gives it but little water, does moi
shift it into a larger pot, but lets il
become pot bound. In other words
he starves it. Root pruning of trees
brings about the same results. II
is not possible to follow the florists
method of starving the plant. Root
pruning, then, is resorted to. The
time to do this is in the fall OF
spring, and if the time allows, it is
lust as we'll done in the early fall
as at any other time. The plan is
to dig out the soil in circle around
the tree, chopping off many of the
large roots met with in the opera
ton. 1t SIS not necessary to chop
away all. 1t can be pretty well de-
termined by the operator how many
to cut, if the object of the cutting
is kept in mind. Whom enough
have been severed to leave no
doubt that the tree will feel the
loss of them, enough will have been
done. AS guide | should say that
the severing of two or three quite
large roots would be ample check.
1t is not desired that a serious
check be given the tree; a little will
suffice. The circle is to be refilled
with soil, and the operation is done.
If such work as this be done in fall
or spring, the next summer will see
the tree form flower buds for the
next seasons crop. 1t rarely fails.
This method of bringing trees into
bearing is not to be practiced on
Young trees. There should be five
or six years allowed such sorts as
apples, pears and plums before
looking for fruit. If young trees
which have net completed their
growth are checked by pruning,
they might never attain to proper
dimensions, for when fruiting once
commences, wood growth is rarely
what it was before.
The English plan, which consists
of summer pruning, is not done
quite in the sense root pruning is.
1t is not to make trees bear which
never have done so, but to make
bearing trees more fruitful. Pears,
cherries, plums and peaches are
largely grown on garden walls there
and these trees are trained to the
wall for shape. And in the fruit
garden the same shape is often main
tanned, the trees forming hedges or
lines, AS it were. In the
of summer the gardener
commences at one end of his wall
or line, and taking tree after tree
as he goes, cuts back all the shoots
of the present season to within two
or three eyes of the base, leaving
intact only such shoots rs he re-
quires for filling up vacant places.
AS the cutting back is done before
growth has stopped, it results in
pushing into development the fruit
buds which usually form at the base
of these shoots. Of course, this
wholesale cutting away of young
branches weakens the tree great
deal. The English gardener does
not mind this because he does rot
want his trees larger than his walls
will accommodate and as explained
before, this weakness throws the
tree into bearing. [ would not ad-
