persimmon belt There is a great variety
in the fruit. When trees are raised from
seed every tree has its individuality. Each
tree produces different variety OF frult.
The great variation shows susceptibility
of wonderful improvements. Not much

for selection. l am afraid a mistake will
be made in planting varieties of the per
simmon in Central Indiana, and especially
farther north of US.

Latest Development in Pecan Gull

The first essential to having a good pc
can grove is constant and thorough cul-
tivation. Those people who tell you that
all you have to do is to put a nut in the
ground, and that it will come up and grow
and make tree without any care are
greatly mistaken. says S. II. Jones in
Southern Cultivator. You had better not
plant a grove unless you will cultivate il
aud take care of it. Cotton is by far the
best crop TO plant a pecan grove in as
cotton is always given good cultivation.

rows are sixty feet apart. And | would
strongly advise all parties wishing to
plant pecan groves to be sure to put the
rows far apart even though the trees be
close together in the rows, for then the
trees will get the sunshine and air from
at least two sides (and they will not do
well unless they do. and, being thick in
the row, all undesirable can be cut out.
On rich land I would plant the rows
sixty feet apart and the trees thirty feet
apart in the row. On land of moderate
fertility the distance may be modified. but
be sure to give the rows sufficient dis
