Autumn Tree Planting.

The season for tree planting again
approaches, and we feel called upon to
again urge the Importance Of doing this
in the fall Of the year. The advantages
of planting at this season are so many
and so important that we again enumer-
ate them:
First-Better trees can be obtained
at the nurseries now than in the spring
Often all the best trees are sold 10 the
fall, and only second and third grade
stock left for those who leave their orders
until spring. -
Second-The danger of substitution
of varieties at the nursery is less in the
autumn than in the spring. Very fire..
quently all the varieties are sold at the
nurseries for fall delivery.
Third-The nurserymen have more
time to dig and pack their stock at this
season than in the spring Mistakes,
hence, are now less liable to occur. trees
are dug with better and larger roots,
they are better packed, and the weather
is also generally more favorable for the
handling of the young stock after it is
dug.
All these are advantages at the nur-
series At the farm there are also ad
vantages
There is more time to plant the trees
liesurely aud with care. Fall planted
trees will centrally all grow, while it is
nearly certain that some planted 10 the
spring will die. The tree planted in
the fall at once begins to prepare for
growth the next season. Even if new
roots are not formed, the cut roots form
callouses which throw out rootlets on
the earliest warm days in spring Then
the earth settles itself about the rootlets
and dry weather in the spring will have
no effect on the newly planted stock.
To illustrate this point: The present
season we placed an order for a number
of fruit and ornamental trees. Although
the order was placed early, the trees
reached us very late, with the result
that more than halt Of them failed to
grow. Generally better growth will
be obtained the first year from fall plant
ed trees.
1t is well again to call attention t.
the Importance of purchasing trees o.
reliable dealers II an agent is deal
With he should be required to show thai
he really has authority to sell for thu
nursery he claims to represent. 1t is
not generally safe to purchase Of dealer
who have no nurseries, for the danger
of substitution is in such cases greater
than when the order is placed direc
with the nursery 1t is well, also, t,
remember that many varieties of fruit
have strictly local values The bes
persons to make up list of fruit tree'
for one are those in the neighborhood
who are successful growers of fruit.
A final caution to the buyer: Max,
map of the orchard, marking on it no
only the name of each tree, but also thu
irD of whom purchased. This will en-
able one to locate the dealers who make
substituLions in orders, for while ont
cannot but be disappointed to find il
his orchard trees no did not order, still
it is a satisfaction to be able to plac,
ones hands upon the drm which made
the substitution DR. George Croft, il
New York Tribune Farmer.

TRANSVAAL GOLD.
Predicted Field VIII Be Exhausted
In Twenty-Five Years.


It is impossible to predict with any
accuracy the duration Of mining In the
Wttwatersrand district by reason es-
pecially Of the indeterminate factor OF
the rate at which exploitation will be
carried on, says John Hays Hammond
In the Engineering Magazine. 1t may
be observed, however, that the tenden-
cy is to exploit the auriforous areas as
rapidly as possible and that engineer
ing methods are all adopted with that
end in view.
If the exploitation Of the deeper lev
els is not delayed pending the proving
of the ground lying above, but is car
rlcd on concurrcntly with the eXploita
ton of the higher horizons OF the
reefs, the industrial life of the district
will, Of course. be corrcspondingly
shortened. The working OF lower grade
trcs, made possible by improved eco
monte conditions or other circum
stances. would tend to increased lon
gevlty of the industry. But We're
called upon to express an opinion l
would estimate the future duration OF
profitable operations on large scale
in the district at less rather than more
than twenty-five years.
