Notes.

Cherries are profitable, and the supply is
usually below the demand. The growing
of cherry trees would be more general but
for insects and the ravages OF the black
knot. Growers who have made cherries
their speciality, however, state that the
crop pays for the work given in protecting
the trees. The trees of some varieties come
into bearing early, and can be planted
closer toge Their than apple or pear trees.

the early weeds a chance to grow, which
will enable you to destroy them when they
are small with harrow. Every weed that
can be started and destroyed before the

as the frost leaves, and others do not start
until June. Constant cultivation destroys
them before they can make growth and rob
the soil of plant food.
