A Word for Dwarf Fruit.

Some Of the best Of our fruits are
raised from dwarf trees, and in Europe,
where land is expensive. these trees are
used almost exclusively They have
been trained to produce more fruit and
less tree and vine This they do so
well that a farmer with fraction of an
acre of land can actually raise fruit
enough of it to support his family. In
this country, where land is plentiful,
little attention has been given to dwarf
fruit trees, and their fruit is hardly
known in our markets Yet there are
some points Of excellence 10 this class of
trees which should at least command
some attention, especially around the
house where good gardens are cultivated.
For instance, it is possible 10 raise these
dwarf trees in shaded places, near build
ings where they will receive ample pro-
lection from the cold winds, so they will
produce fruits weeks after all orchard
trees have ceased to yield have seen
dwarf pear trees hold fruit six weeks
after all these orchard trees of the same
variety hid shed their fruits and leaves.
Dwarf peach trees sandwiched between
two houses, or nook between two
wings of a barn, have yielded peaches
during seasons when all other peach
trees were killed by the cold weather
But dwarf peach, apple. pear and
plum trees frequently produce fruits
and are superior to any raised in the
orchard, aud one who attempted to raise
just this class of fruit might easily sup
ply the best markets with fancy fruits
not obtainable elsewhere. The fruits
incline to grow nearly third larger on
dwarf trees whore proper thinning out
is followed, and without losing any of
their flavor so common TO most large
fruits. Dwarf trees are not so unproft-
able in the orchard as many imagine,
for what they lose in proportion of trunk
aud limbs they gain in being closer
planted together in the row. Orchards
of dwarf trees of both plums and pears
are planted with the trees only about
dozen feet apart, and yet they are not
crowded even when the trees reach full
maturity. This fact makes an acre Of
dwarf trees appear more favorable than
might seem at first thought Those
who cut back their trees continually
year after year get the best results with
their fruits, aud the dwarf trees simply
represent this system carried to an ex.
IRENE 1t may be possible that the
American system of cutting back Sc
verely each year is better adapted to
our country than raising the extreme
dwarf varieties M A Bodwell, in

Salt for Gravel Walks.

Many suggestions are offered in re-
gard to the preservation of gravel walks
and drives from weeds. was brought
up in what might be called garden
it was large enclosure inside bricl
wall, with a strong aud studded gate al
the entrance, and the walls we're topped
of with broken glass. fixed in cement,
to keep out the burglars, then numer-
GUS and skilled in the art Of breaking
into houses through the windows or saw
ing through doors with keyhole saw
This was the utmost skill possessed by
these uneducated thieves, and to pre-.
vent them from getting entrance, every
country house was thus enclosed
The walks inside the Notifications Of
the garden were Of gravel, or the finer
crushed stone, which was used by the
noted road engineer Of .those days
(McAdam, who is kept in memory by
the name given to his method of road
making, still called macadamizing. -
These beautiful gray-stone walks would
at times be covered with weeds in the
enclosures of careless proprietors; but
otherwise they were kept bright and
clean and smooth by frequent rollings
with heavy iron roller, and the weeds
were kept down-indeed, wholly pre-
vented-by the simple use of common
salt. we'll remember the gray headed
old gardener, with whom | was con-
slant companion, sprinkling salt on the
roads and foot walks, after the usual
rolling, when the borders of the grassy
plats we're cut down sharply with a
moon-shaped implement, leaving clean
edge to the pats and flower beds and
after the waste was swept up, the salt
was sprinkled literally on the gravel.
A fnal rolling was then given, and the
weekly work was finished up, leaving a
clean, smooth, bright, hard walk or
drive.
There was science, too, in his work.
1t was so done for two seasons One
he explained to NEWS that salt was
a deadly application to every weed,
killing it instantly, root and branch (;
the other-that it kept the gravel sur
face damp and bright-not too damp,
50 that the ladies could walk out in the
evening in their slippers, but just damp
enough to brighten the gravel and keep
down any dust, and make the gravel
bind. | still remember how patiently
the old gardener explained to me the
reason for everything, instilling into
my mind habits of accurate observation,
which have been Of enormous value to
me.
Now that there is a somewhat ex-
tended discussion of this matter, the old
gardeners lessons in the care of lawns
and roads aud footpaths come to my
mind, as well as of the many years 10
my own life during which have fol-
lowed his most excellent way and have
kept my garden walks clean and bright,
free from dust and weeds by the simple
use of salt
Ancient history, too, teaches this use
of salt, for when the old Roman con-
querors wished to annihilate the vestiges
of a conquered city, they sowed the ruins
with salt, doubtless to prevent the sym
Pathiziug weeds from giving them a
shroud Of memorial green. II Stewart,

Many farmers make a mistake in not
oultivating their orchards. An orchard
should be put upon good rich ground,
then cultivated aud trimmed. My father
and neighbor bought trees from the
same nursery at the same time. Our
trees we're well cultivated. but the grass
and weeds took the others. The trees
that were worked are now large, and
are beginning to bear, while half Of the
others are dead, aud the rest small,
knotty, and yellow, do not look as il
they would ever bear There is no use
in paying out mon y for trees unless
they are afterward cared for IT. j.
