4 Talk on Fruit Culture.

MIR. George T. POWELL in his lecture on
Institute held at the court house in Cen
treville, Queen Anne's county, on Satur
day evening, stated that the climate of the
peninsula was more favorable for this in
dustry than that of New York, and the
soil equally as good, though not in as high
state of cultivation. For Moderation he
advised seeding land to red clover for two
years previous to planting in fruit. Clo-
yer supplies nitrogen, and four years in
this plant will yield of this in gredent what
could not be otherwise furnished for less
than $500 per acre. The first crop should
be cut for stock; let second crop grow
and turn under, and on top SOW crimson
clover about August list; turn this under
and top dress with stable manure In the
spring apply bone and potash heavily.
An acre of land should produce twenty
thousand quarts of berries The true poll
cy is, small acreage on the intense system,
and thorough and light cultivation
| Plants should be mulched during the win

ness. Grapes grown here, he said, ought
