TREE GROWING SOIL.

From the New York Weekly Times, March
10th, 1878]
The following analysis Of the common
prairie soil of Nebraska has been sent to
us, with request to publish. It is by
Prof. Goessmann, Of the Massachusetts,
College Of Agriculture at Amherst, an
authority of high standing. Mr.. Morton,
President of the State Board of Agri-
culture, states that it is fair average
sample of the soil, extending over the
greater portion of the state of Nebraska.
1t is peculiarly rich in organic matter
and in potash, which sufficiently show
it's value, and account for the great grain
crops, grown in the states where it
exists:

conditions in Nebraska would mean

local climate, with consequent increase

the tree Possibly, but rarely, if ex-
ceeding drouth occurs, it might be well
to pour water through the mulch to
reach the roots. AS a rule, however,
this is not necessary. The thorough
wetting Of roots, top dressing with
blanket, or loose soil and mulch, ought
to serve the purpose. Too much sur
face moisture, either natural rain fall
or artificial application of water, tends
to induce an upward growth of roots,
when downward tendency should be
encouraged.
All newly planted trees should be
pruned. In pruning tops, give prepon-
derence to roots, as they have first duty
to perform-to again identify them
selves with the soil. Do not be dis
couraged if leaves do not appear at once
after planting. Roots in instances, are
tardy in their work. If the tree is
healthy, leaves will appear in due time.
In pruning tops of trees, all limbs cut,
size and over Of little finger, should be
painted with some substance, to prevent
evaporation and induce rapid healing
of the wound. Common paint will
answer, or gum shellac dissolved in
alcohol, with consistence Of common
paint, put on with brush.
In pruning tops of trees, let one
object be future shape and symmetry:
"Just as the twig is bent the trees in
clined," is the old and true couplet
What is here said of tree planting, is
applicable alike to forest, fruit and
evergreen trees. More care, however,
should be exercised in handling ever
green's than in deciduous trees. Robert
Douglas, the veteran evergreen grower
and planter, once said: "Never let the
roots of an evergreen see the sum-" He
should have added: "Nor feel the
wind" What is known as "sap'' in a
deciduous tree, is resin in an evergreen,
and once concealed can never be re-
stored. Hence, extreme care in hand
ling roots of evergreens In fact, the
least possible exposure of roots of any
tree, to the wind or the sun, the better.
A tree is to be planted but once in a
life time. Let it be well done. A well
planted tree never forgets the hand that
planted it.
Care of trees after planting is impor-
tant. Other than mulch, see that the
ground is kept clear of weeds and grass.
If loosened by swaying winds, straigh-
ten up and pack soil over roots-not too
much about the body of tree.

TREE GROWING SOIL.
The Conservative, 1901-04-11

Sample of Soil sent By j. Ster-
ling Morton, Vice- President of the State
Board of Agriculture of the State of
Nebraska.
The soil was of a grayish-dark color,
and of light, pulverent, uniform tex.
ture-the largest pieces severally reach
ing 1-16th to 1-20th of an inch in
diameter. Mixed with water it did. not
form compact stiff mass, but per-
mitted, in desirable degree, it's per-
collation.. The abundance of rootlets
which had grown through it in every
direction, demonstrated plainly it's
favorable, mechanical condition for plant
growth. The general physical properties
of the soil corresponded with the
characteristics of a sandy loan. AS one
of it's peculiar features, may be men
toned the presence Of small percentage
of minute, rounded pieces of magnetic
iron ore, which causes, mainly, the large
percentage of sesquioxide of iron in my
subsequent analytical statement
The soil lost, when kept over dry,
chloride of calcium, 1-6 per cent of
moisture it absorbed in an air saturated
with moisture, at $50 Fahrenheit tenn
perature, 5.04 per cent of moisture;
when dried at 212o Fahrenheit, it lost
4.O5 per cent of moisture; being cal
cined, it lost 1903 per cent of it's weight,
consisting mainly Of water and organic
matter.
One thousand parts of the soil, treated
with 1900 parts water produced solu-
ton which left at 212o to 22Oo Fahren-
heit, a residue, equal to 1.1S4 parts,
which consisted of O.414 parts of ash
constituents, and of 0.770 parts of
organic and volatile matter.
One thousand parts of the soil, being
treated with hydrochloric acid of LIZ
specific gravity, produced solution
which contained:
